Gru is NOT 14 feet tall.

Hey guys. I know the meme is pretty old, but I've made a shocking discovery about Felonius Gru, regarding his incredible height. He is actually not 14 feet tall.

What makes me think that, you say? Well, let me just say that Slazo's calculations were very sound. Everything he calculated was absolutely correct, except for one thing; the first (and most important) constant.

The constant that we use here is the fact that Minions are 3.5 feet tall. But that is very far from the truth. The reason we even got this number is because of a very inaccurate website.

So I decided to do my own research to find the actual size of an average minion. After scouring some trailers for some good images, I found this picture.

This picture portrays a minion with a banana. Bananas as we know are about a foot or more long. You can also note that the minion is about 2 bananas tall. This makes this minion about 2 feet tall, possibly 2.5.

We know that Gru is about 4 minions tall. So that makes Gru 8 feet tall, which is actually reasonable, unlike the impossible 14 feet height. It's possible that I made some mistakes, so I would say Gru is in the range of 6-10 feet tall, which actually makes sense.

I'm not saying Gru isn't an absolute god though. The fact that he is shorter than we thought makes his strength even more incredible, like the time he punched a shark with relative ease. That's gonna be a lot harder for a shorter lad. And he's still an absolute beast, being able to run at 500+ mph (804+ km/h) without even breaking a sweat. I just thought it would be necessary to stop spreading the fake news about him.

If you're reading this Slazo, we need a part 2 of your Gru video. Now.
