"It's important that we meet any sort of hate and negativity with joy and celebration."
~ Simu Liu
Famous Chinese-Canadian actor, Simu Liu was once voted as one of the sexiest men alive by People Magazine. He has hit jackpot in recent years for his role in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
But is the sexiest man alive even 6 feet tall (though he need not be)? Well, IMDb -- the information authority on the entertainment business thinks so.
But strangely Mr. Liu himself doesn't. IMDb used to list him at 6 feet but Mr. Liu mentioned his height by saying that he will perhaps touch the six feet mark with some good quality lift shoes, otherwise, he is closer to 5 feet 11 inches -- It is disheartening but what can one do about it? Wait a moment, closer to 5'11" -- but from which side?
After taking a careful look at Mr. Liu, we are not sure if he is between 5'11" to 6". Mr. Liu may be closer to 5'11" but it looks like he is on the southern side of it.
Half an inch might not seem such a big deal to you, but to us -- it might as well be the difference between Mount Everest and Lonely Mountain.
We think Mr. Liu is not a full 5 feet 11 inches. Perhaps Mr. Liu will be content to be slightly shorter than 5 feet 11 inches as well?
The real height of Simu Liu is
5'10½" or 179.5 cm
