French academic Henrion publishes an article concluding that average human height has steadily decreased over the centuries. Adam, for example, must have been 37.72 m tall, according to Henrion, while Eve was “only” 36.2 m. Noah stood at only 8.2 m, Abraham 6 m, Moses 4 m, and Julius Caesar 1.5 m. Only the coming of Christ, according to Henrion, stabilized the proportions and prevented man’s decline to microscopic proportions.
