Or as tall as the Staff with his arm raised over his head (isn't that how it's described in WGW when he and Findail are melded together), the top heel of the Staff from his arm ends up on top, the one on his ankle on the bottom. So to me that would make him fairly short, maybe only 5'5" or so...how tall is the Staff?
Probably VERY long...long arm of the Law and such...
And even without my dumb pun...that would be a very FAT staff.

For me Vain was about 6 Ft or a bit taller. I never envisioned as short. This is Vain for fucks sake.

Yeah, I've always envisioned him as always squatting... ready for anything, but I imagine he'd be a decent height if he'd stand straight.

Yeah, like a combat ready squatting. Kinda like what a sumo wrestler does at the beginning of a match.

I see Vain as rather more sveldt than a Sumo wrestler.

Vain is perfectly proportioned ala de Vinci's 'Vitruvian Man' (see Wikipedia for details) and his height is such that as noted above with upraised arm the distance between the two heels of the SOL is equidistant with the staff (which of course Vain is).

He was tall enough to kick everone's butt. Except maybe Nom. Who is also that exact height.
Perhaps as tall as Chuck Norris?

If I remember correctly didn't Bruce Lee whip Chuck Norris's ass in 'Enter the Dragon' (or was it one of the other Lee films).
