Doomsday Device Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Â Yes, in principle. But in this photo we're talking about him taking 1 step back; a few inches. Â If Andre steps backwards 1 step, he's moving "up" the photo, and thereby getting taller. It's all about the perspective of this photo. If he keeps walking backwards, yes, he gets smaller as he goes into the distance; but we're talking inches here - and the incline in the photo is more than the step back he needs to take to be in line with the other guy. Â I understand what you're saying, but the depth change will not be fully offset by the incline of the pic. Â You're suggesting that Andre stepping back will make him taller than Wilt and that is simply not true. It makes him the same height, and based on the below, potentially even shorter: Â Â Classic picture: Â Â Pimping his hoes: Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatulent Dad Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Funnily enough, only last week I watched the infamous match against Akira Maeda (4/1986), which turned into a shoot, due to him totally no-selling Maeda's work. Worth seeing once, twice maybe. Drags on a bit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
