    hahah, cinnya, he's 6ft. 6in. tall. Yup his head does about touch the ceiling, he has to bend down to go through most doorways! I sure did supersize it for him.

    That's a wonderful gift. Tall people have a hard time finding something to fit appropriately - including blankets and quilts. He must be very proud of you!
