Why were German nobility so freakishly tall?

>Otto von Bismarck was 6ft2 (1.90m)
>Paul von Hindenburg was fucking 6ft6 (1.98m)

He makes Hitler look like a fucking teenager in comparison.

Luxury degenerated their blood so they became weak lanlets and got replaced by chad manlets

The Prussians in the XVIII century kidnapped tall guys to serve in the army

>Picks only 2 examples
That's really not much to go off of. Washington was also tall, that doesn't equal Virginian planters being tall as a group.

Are all Americans insecure about height like this?

The Potsdam Guard. In short (hehe), it boils down to good breeding. Something this board wouldn't know a lick about.

It doesn't boil down to anything, they were a joke/meme unit created as personal entertainment for the King and were disbanded almost the second he kicked the bucket because everyone knew it was a ridiculous gimmick.
Also the guards were peasants, often quite literally kidnapped or given to the King as gifts, none of them would be made into aristocrats or given to "breed" with noble families

Hitler was 5'9", he wasn't a manlet, that's average height.

Now Stalin was a manlet, he was like 5'3".
