What things influence variations in human body size and shape? Why celebrity heights are so different? In accordance with numerous researches, the climate influences greatly the development of a skeleton. Thus, people who lives in hot climate have slim long bodies with thin bones. It helps the organism to stay cool during hot days. On the other hand, those who live in the north as a rule have heavier, had short limbs and large joints throughout their bodies. There is also a special form of nose which helps them to warm the air till it gets their lungs. Thus, everything is created in order to preserve life.
In other words, in accordance with the above mentioned facts, tall people live in hot countries and short people live in north regions. But how it can be explained that Pygmies - the people with short stature, live in central Africa? And how about the Scandinavian nations which are considered to be the tallest in the world? As you know they live in the countries with rather cold climate. So, in other words, the above mentioned theory can't show all the things which influence the body development. And the diversity of celebrity heights may also be the other proof of such a statement. Just compare 4'-10" Danny DeVito, 6' Denzel Washington, 6'-4" Clint Eastwood or 5'-4" Scarlett Johansson.
Modern life makes human's body development more complicated. In other words, it is not so easy to distinguish some basic things which influence this process. Of course, every nation has its peculiarities in body structure. But nowadays there is a tendency that the races will "dissolve" in one another. And probably, we will have other preferences concerning celebrity heights. Though the advertisement and various promotional programs also play decisive role in the development of our preferences. |
