The Times has an interesting (if not completely pointless) infographic on presidential height and weight, in recent history. I like that the silhouettes are all mostly recognizable – Jimmy Carter’s smile, Harry Truman’s spectacles and William Howard Taft’s belly… funny.
It was done by Scott Stowell’s design studio, Open N.Y., the people who design GOOD Magazine.
It’s a little misleading they made Obama look like a giant compared to McCain even though he not that short.
@Rick: I think that the point is that this is to scale, and McCain is that short.
Also, I didn’t realize how skinny Kerry was, for someone 6’4″.
