Well I think it's mainly because of the angle the photographer is taken..from those I've seen from him and fan accounts his photos are mostly clicked from head up which makes the upper body large and distort the body proportions....or it could also be big head but i don't think his head is big vis a vis body proportion...My final verdict is angle..but i may be wrong.Can someone help me understand how Simu, the 5' 10" that he is, doesn't appear tall? Like people like Tom Cruise (who's 5'7") photograph taller than Simu does. Why is that? Is he really wide/bulked up? Because Henry Cavill - who is 6' - is also super bulked up but also looks tall. What am I missing? Or is it just me?
