GRRM has a height fetish btw, his books are 99% insanely tall people. I guess, as a manlet, he's living vicariously through his characters.(click to show/hide)
I just finished my 3rd read, and I just realized that everyone is tall as hell, look at it, the amount of people around or over 6'0 is astonishing, Jaime(6'2) Renly (6'2) Jorah (6'2) Stannis (6'5) Brienne (6'5) Robert (6'6) Kettleblacks bro's(6'6 in average) Sandor (6'7) Dunk (6'11) Hodor(7'0) Mountain (7'10).That doesn't seem like much people, but when you look at most people "broad shouldered, and tall" was used as a description for most male characters, which doesn't make much sense considering that science states that people are taller now than ever before, I've met 3 people in my life who are as tall as me (excluding my family) then why is everyone pretty much a giant, and I haven't even covered people like Tywin, whose height is unknown, (but we know he's pretty tall)
7'6" - 8' = Gregor
6'10" - 7' = Dunk, Left & Right, Greatjon & Smalljon, Hodor
6'7"-6'9" = Sandor, Small Paul, Mero (Titan's Bastard), Pello (Greenbeard), Goghor the Giant, Andrik the Unsmiling, Lucas Inchfield, Tallad the Tall
6'6" = Robert Baratheon, Brienne of Tarth, Bronze Yohn, Polliver, Lemoncloak, Drogo, The Kettleblacks, Victarion Greyjoy, Archibald Yronwood, Maegor I Targaryen
6'3" - 6'5" = Stannis Baratheon, Renly Baratheon, Garlan Tyrell, Selyse Florent, Lyle Crakehall, Jeor Mormont, Tytos Blackwood, Daemon I Blackfyre, Aegor 'Bittersteel' Rivers
6'0" - 6'2" = Jaime Lannister, Tywin Lannister, Jorah Mormont, Rhaegar Targaryen, Dacey Mormont, Melisandre, Joffrey Baratheon, The Blackfish, Qhorin Halfhand, Rorge & Biter, Brynden Rivers, Aegon I Targaryen, Aenys I Targaryen

I predict that Cersei Lannister is betrayed and dies. Followed by Aegon Targaryen and Daenerys Targaryen killing each other both believing they are the rightful heir. Followed by the Master of Whisperers placing his empty ballsack on the Iron Throne long after the Red Keep has mostly been destroyed and winter is upon the South.
