That's why I said it was inconclusive. I thought of camera angle maybe giving an illusion of height difference and all that, but how is the mummy to stand upright, and be accurate? We don't know what is holding the mummy up, or how the photo was orchestrated. It has to be somewhat compressed, I
would think. But judging by the hands and feet I would expect David E. George to have been at least 6 ft. tall. There was a sheriff who said he was a tall man, but his testimony was suspect, if I recall correctly. Back in those days a person was considered tall at 6 ft.
