The mystery of MJ's height

[~Souza~]

Yesssss, I know it has been discussed a million times, but it is so interesting! Here is another brain teaser:

KO is taller than TP:




TP is taller than MJ:




MJ and KO are same height:

[curls]

There must be 2 KOs! LOL!

[Datroot]

In this pic, MJ is slightly shorter than KO because his wig is about a couple of inches higher than the top of his head

Slightly, yes. Not a lot as the pics above it would make you think.

High heels?

High heels?

I was waiting for that one
No too easy.
There are two MJ..to many diference in Height in mannerism and appearance. My opinion ofcource!

[suspicious mind]

what was the comment from Liberian Girl? exactly which michael jackson are we talking about (that might not be the exact quote)? ummm does that necessarily have to imply just two? i have begun to think in terms of at least a few.

Agree..could be more than two..but at least  two.

Hard to say, we should see the position of the feet (of course, unfortunate pose TP, or hand  :icon_lol: )

I wish i could express myself better in telling my toughts about this. but in English this is verry difficult for me.(verry sorry about that)
High heels,and lightning etc are not enough for me..too easy
It does not explain all the difference.
Going back and forward in appearance and mannerism like i have seen a lot is only possible if there is more than one Michael. IMO
I think it is really a pitty that there is no more investigation in this..in the why and how.
Maybe it would explain al lot,or even is the key to solve the puzzle.
But there is a lot resistance to the idea,and i dont really understand why?..And i think this stands in the way of investigating this.
What would be so bad if Michael choose this path for whatever reason??

MJ's true height has always seemed a mystery.  I don't think there are 2 (or more) MJ's, just the one.  Doubles used for distractions, yes, but only one actual MJ.  The height thing could be as simple as lifts in shoes, as suggested before.  Not only lifts in MJ's shoes but also others, like KO or TP or whoever else.  Wear them one day, not another - differences in height.  Might be a simple explanation but why over-complicate it?

This is what i mend.  :icon_neutral:
Right away it is dismissed.
Like i said for me the explanation of high heels for everybody is too easy..and wen i try to tell it fascinates me, i over complicate?
That is shutting the discussion before it starts.
There is so much more than high heels.
I am not saying i am right,just looke at the posibillity..and if i am wrong i wil be the first to say so.
But your explanation does not change my mind.
But it is a no go area i understand,and i wont bring it up again.

I see what you're saying mattie and I'm not dismissing anything.  I was just sharing my opinion, doesn't mean I'm right.

[curls]

Mattie, it's not a no go area. We've had several threads discussing the possibility of 2 MJs. I started one myself not long ago. Just because not everyone (me included) agrees doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't talk about it if you want to. It is a fascinating idea!

All I personally would disagree with in your comments above, is that I don't think 'more than one MJ' is the only possible explanation for the differences we've witnessed over the years.

And your English is just fine, so no worries there!
