I am also a 5'3" Andrew. I have 2 sons over 6'. Guess who basically never bumps their head, doesn't worry about my feet hanging over the end of the bed and can fit in the back seat of pretty much any vehicle. I don't have any trouble finding shoes in my size or pants long enough. My feet reach all the way to the ground and there's generally always some giant around to grab things off the top shelf at Wal-Mart so....seems I'm the perfect height.
My wife’s grandfather was a short guy, probably around 5’3” or so. He said that he always was resentful to the big guys, until he spent 3 years in a Russian POW camp. He looked up and locked eyes with me (6’2” here), and said “the big guys didn’t get enough food, and they died. I could survive on less.” First time in my life I was afraid of a diminutive nonagenarian.
The "critter pace" really got me. As a 4'11 girl with a 6 ft, still growing, best friend, I really move a lot faster than would ever be expected. I take 2 steps for every one of hers, and yet it works so...
im the tall one in the duo of my and my best friend and i've seen first hand how people under the average height make up for it in one way or another, for example, having to tell people she talks a lot (you will not get a word in, love her, but whoooo boy) like people think they can handle it without being classically trained
@@marinaarellano436As a toxic person on the internet, I am obliged to give my very rude and unsolicited opinion, that I would otherwise not say to your face which is that you and your husband have a gross relationship. He's attracted to children, and you are likely a burden in the relationship and are ok with that. You are welcome, anytime.
I’m 5’3” and had never heard of the term short king until one of my best friends told me a couple years ago. She’s a 5’10” blonde German immigrant. We got married last fall.
I gotta hand it to you Drew, my daughter sent me a picture of her and a friend with you after a show. You were the high point of the photo. Big smile and a thumbs up. Those girls were thrilled. thank you. You rock!
I'm 5'5" and just very average. But two of my close friends are 6'4" and 5'0" so it's rather comical when we hang out. One time I hugged both of them at the same time and our heads just kind of stacked perfectly
First time seeing Drew since AGT. It is amazing how he has learned to utilize his speech issues to absolutely perfect his timing. Seriously one of the best comedians in the business.
As someone who is 6' even can attest to that, being slightly above average I haven't been in a group photo where I was in picture that my mouth was in.
5' here...I have 2 bothers over 6', they use me as an armrest sometimes 😂 I am also the oldest of 6 and the shortest. All my sons are taller than me. The shortest one is 5' 7"
I get that, I laugh my ass off when I see a little guy trip over a 1/2 inch difference between sidewalks. Boom! Flat on his face nose pushed off to one side blood gushing GUSHING out of his nostrils tears rolling down his cheeks like he's about to cry out "Mama?" yeah that shit's hilarious.
Damn Drew, your jokes have reached a whole another level man. I've always loved your sense of humor, but now it's so much more refined and smooth. Pure joy to watch and listen to you. Thank you for the entertainment.
I’ve heard you make short jokes before and assumed you were still taller than me but knowing you were my exact height actually made my day. It’s always a good day when I find another 5’4 dude.
As a 19 year old standing at 5'3", Drew, I feel your pain. This was such an insightful episode for me ever since I started watching your specials and all other vids with you in it!
Back in school, I used to slap the doorframe…. I was smaller than 5ft at the time so whenever I did manage to slap the doorframe by jumping, I’d get the most insane adrenaline rush of power XD
I'm five foot and 3 quarters... We had to take work photos this week. In front and center every freaking time. lol! This was great! We short folk don't have to duck a lot so take that!
I 100% agree with the short people in the front for a photo. Any time at school photos the person just stares at me for a second and goes *"On your knees in the front"* I make sure to ruin every photo I'm in. I will be staring daggers at the camera, and getting the photo back fills me with much joy as I see my face looking like a little murderer and everyone else fearing for their lives.
Right? Just get me a stool to stand on or put me in the middle. I’ve been 5’6 for thirteen years. I’m 22, and they always had me in the front sitting in my knees. It was annoying
Just own it. I'm 5'2" and have been in the front line of every class photo and now as an adult...I get to sneak in stuff in the photo because the tall folks can't see it. 😂
Psychologists huff and puff about humour being a defence as if that's a bad thing. Defence, in all it's forms, gives you power. Drew you are using yours to the absolute best effect educating us, making us cry with laughter and revealing your unique wonderful personality. Thanks dude
"I am Mexican. Got it? #&@^!". " This dude still as good, probably better, as his AGT days I remember his story on AGT and just think it's really kool he still doing his thang. 👊🏽✌🏽
There is 1 perk to being short in the military. When they do ceremonies of any kind its from tallest to shortest. So all the tall people have to be in the front of the formation havint to stand still for a long time where as the short people get to relax a bit out of sight from everyone looking at the front of the formation...ifykyk
I'm civilian but from what I've seen and talked to the military is all around a great place to be a short man! There are very cool jobs that are disqualified for too-tall guys but apart from ceremonial guards none for too-short guys. Also, while I (5'3") strongly feel the disrespect-from-other-men thing is grossly exaggerated in any context and is basically a cope for people to avoid thinking about what else about them might cause other men to have no respect for them, the military seems to be an exceptionally good setting for respect for short guys. For the simple reason that the setting provides such obvious and manifest means for a man to earn respect in the eyes of his comrades, there's really not much room left for silly stereotypes and assumptions like a short guy is less worthy of respect or capable or less of a man. I think it's not hard for a short guy to earn respect in the military, it's done all the time afaik and people barely think about it. Only to people who have led a life of frivolity does it seem odd or weird for a 6'3" guy to show respect to a 5'3" guy. Surely he thinks of himself as superior or more masculine, or the other guy as a little kid or whatever, deep down. Well, no. (And again, I think it's mostly serious insecurity that makes anyone, tall or short, think otherwise.)
I GOT THAT CRITTER PACE God, in sixth form one of the guys I hung out with all the time was 6'something, while I'm a whole 4'11" (and a bit - can't forget the bit). Heading up the stairs to class in the morning he was taking like 3 steps at a time EASILY and I was there looking like the pup named Scooby Doo version of Velma trying to keep up, that's always how I've described it. I like "critter pace"
This man is brilliant. I saw some other videos by him but he was stuttering and he had me believing he really did stutter. Now I see this. (P.S. I am a short person and searched for “short people” here.) And now I have found out that he really DID have a stutter and he has improved so much that I thought the stuttering was an act. He is still brilliant and amazing.
I feel this one in my soul. I'm 5'4-5'5 my husband is 6ft, my parents and siblings are between 5'8-6ft. My 13 year old son is 5'10, and even my daughter (8) is 5ft. I'm a mushroom in a forest of evergreens my guy.
I'm 5' even and the picture thing is 100% true! Drew's right, I'm sick of being in the front and always having to look good and perform like a circus freak. As far as "short" men goes I would love, love, love to be with a man who is 5' 4" or thereabouts.
In the 50's it was normal and 5.6 was tall! I don't know in the US but in Europe (depends on you live) people aren't very tall. Except North, obviously. But there is everything! And all old cities are very nice, with old bricks wall and facades, and then it is the tall people who can't enjoy 😂 argh!
I don't know what friend or business group expects short people to perform like circus freaks in group photos; I'd suggest finding another. I loved this routine but I have to say I found the photo part the least relatable. There's a "my life experiences animated" type RUclipsr who made a video called "short" that considers it a perk of shortness to always be the star of every group photo, and this is in my experience the more dominant one among us shorties. Of course it will vary drastically based on whether you like being in photos!
It's really amazing how far he has come. What a sweet story. I like to find his old stuff and listen just to see how much his speaking has improved since he hit the stage. Everything about him is glowing up and up. Love it. My favorite comedian of today.
Drew, this may be the funniest clip of yours I've ever seen. I am glad I was not drinking anything, I would have done 3 spit takes. Awesome job, buddy.
I got a friend that’s always saying old people jokes to me because I’m 67 and he’s in his 40s but he’s short so I got some comebacks for him, thanks for this video
Favorite short person quip: in _GOT_ when Gendry tells Arya, “You shouldn’t insult people who are bigger than you,” and she retorts, “But then I’ll never get to insult ANYBODY.”😂
I went on a date with a short guy and he was upset how tall I was. I'm only 5'6. So, I changed my heels into sneakers. He was STILL upset I was taller than him. A second date didn't happen. I didn't have an issue with his height, he did tho and more so with my height. Why should I try to be 'shorter' to appease a man's ego, especially when I'm not that tall to begin with! If you can't handle me in heels you don't deserve me in flats or, whatever Marilyn Monroe said *the guy was like 4'9 max and really, the biggest 'lady boner killer' was, he was into 'industrial 90's music' and Tool was his favorite band
Its the insecurity that women like or prefer taller men so he probably put it out as he didnt like it before you could say anything idk. but thats red flag type insecure
@raziel9856 oh, I've only known confidante short guys before so, this was not a normal experience for me. Actually, as a kid I was a gymnast so, 'short' can be an advantage. Anyway, I wouldn't judge someone one their height but, 'content of character'
What's wrong with liking a particular kind of music? If it is the only kind of music that someone likes is one kind to the exclusion of all others, I could see it. If you like the person, you could introduce them to other things.
@@McKavian it's a preference and, I've found certain types of 'favorite music' can also be a 'red flag'. Sting, Phil Collins, New Country (I could go on) are just not things I can not tolerate in a potential romantic partner. Leaves the toilet seat up? Short? Kinda dumb? Not a deal breaker. But if he listens to Offspring or Nickleback? GTFO
The act of getting his wife off the couch and to the bedroom is hilarious! Good thing my man can carry me otherwise he'd probably get this a bit less often than he already does, the couch is my home. lol
I'm 4'11" and my fiance' is 5'6"- we lucked out, it's kind of perfect haha. We've had issues with the height thing when it has come to exes (and people) for both of us. This skit was hilariously accurate
As a Fellow Short King, I felt this on so many levels... Dumb question, how tall is your wife's dad? When I met my girl's dad, it was like meeting a Tower, Slenderman, Groot, Tall Things Etc. Honestly scared the crap out me...
My dad was 5' 4" but he's already shrunk and now he's 5' 2". We had a good laugh about how I'll be the tallest in my family soon (I'm 5' 1"). Aging is not nice to short people. 😂
I’m not that short at 5 foot eight… But I was a late bloomer and I always got picked up for being short and I didn’t get picture stuff even though it was better. Smarter. Just wasn’t bigger. Thank you so much this comedy is hilarious gold and it’s the funniest short person jokes I’ve ever heard.
The pain of being short. I get hell every time someone walks in my house and catches me standing on a chair looking for something in my cabinets. I look like a toddler looking for cookies. Or when someone deliberately places things out of my reach just to watch me try and get it. Grrrrrr
My husband's work friend and his wife invited us out to an event. The wife is around 6'. The husband is 6'5". I'M 5'2"! I was literally RUNNING to keep up with them. It. Was. HORRIBLE. They're lovely people, we had a great time once I was able to sit down.
Some disadvantages of being tall to help the short guys feel better; airplanes are very uncomfortable. It's harder to pick stuff up off the ground. We hit our heads on things. People make us reach for things.
I’m 4’ 11” and I RARELY ask anyone besides store personnel and my own family members to reach anything for me, and when it comes to my own family I only ask when they happen to be right where I want to reach - otherwise I’ll climb on stepstools, chairs, counters, tables and ladders just so I can reach stuff w/o bothering anyone 😅 I carry an umbrella/parasol with me every time I go out and have basically perfected the art of using the end of it to knock products off the top shelves in supermarkets and catch them as they fall, but I’m always grateful whenever a taller stranger notices what I’m trying to do and takes the thing off the shelf for me out of the kindness of his/her heart, because depending on how heavy or breakable the product packaging is, it can be a dangerous business 😅
@@TheDrewLynch Dang! I wish I found you sooner. Hopefully we'll be graced with your presence again soon. Wait until Monsoon season is over. It's miserable here right now.
7:06 the joke about how short people hate when tall people touch the top of the door frame lol, my son turned 14 last week and he’s 5’6/7 and I’m his mother, 5’1 and I got mad over the weekend when he did that 😂
I once did an experiment where I wore undetectable lifts (approx. +4 inches) to events. At first, I figured there would be no difference. But, nope! People approached me, took interest in me, chatted with more engagement. It was actually surreal. Again, I thought I was imagining things, but every instance where I tried the experiment, the results were always similar. When I didn't wear them, almost no one took notice of me. 💪😎✌️ It's a great feeling. Lived with it all my existence, too! Good stuff.
you're so funny. as a short person I have to set up things. no dishes above the second shelf, clocks have all been moved into a position where I can change the time without getting a step stool - except the chime clock on the wall ( my non short son changes that ).
This was one of my favorite parts of the special. My belly hurt by the end of it. Great job on this 1 Añdrés!! Been a fan since I 1st seen you on AGT & you've grown in your comedy & as an inspiration to a whole group of men that you probably have no idea how you're comedy helps us get through the day. Thank you for keeping America Great Again!! #BANANA 🍌🌊 #MMMMMM 🫴🤱🍼🤌🙋🍄🪩🪩
As a fellow short person, I understand these things too well. Although I was used as an armrest at times and would warn my tall friends that I could cut them at the knees when they called me cute. ^.^ Though will say, I can move through crowded places a lot easier.
As a fellow short man (5'3), 31 years old, and also named Andrew, I've never felt closer to another stand up comedian.

it's also why people don't get as tall...malnutrition can also stunt your growth...probably for that reason

You should have felt taller in 5th grade and shorter when you were 21 i guess
I got a friend that’s always saying old people jokes to me because I’m 67 and he’s in his 40s but he’s short so I got some comebacks for him, thanks for this video
As a tall guy, the doorframe tap is the same instinct as tong clicking. You just gotta.
Only if us shorties can slap your butt as we walk by at our "critter pace"! 😂
No, you don’t.
Great to hear your new material. You rock!
That's it, I'm slapping curbs now!
Dude i saw your clips back in the day idk how you overcame the stutter but its amazing, with or without you are dope
As a tall guy, yeah this is all pretty accurate 😂😂
I see it all the time but you guys don't notice it
@@TheDrewLynch this rarified air really messes with our vision, you know?
I'm 6 foot 4 lol and I stutter entire sentences. Lol I even have a delay in my auditory processing I swear.
@@MarkB7774 6'4" gang! We out here slapping doorframes
@@darmakx99 Be honest, we slap doorframe with our heads going down stairs.
Sign of a awesome 👌 comedy set: me rushing to the bathroom before I wet myself.
And "Andrés" delivered. Bravo sir. You are hilarious 😂
Favorite short person quip: in _GOT_ when Gendry tells Arya, “You shouldn’t insult people who are bigger than you,” and she retorts, “But then I’ll never get to insult ANYBODY.”😂
You just keep getting better Drew! Absolutely crushing it.
I went on a date with a short guy and he was upset how tall I was. I'm only 5'6. So, I changed my heels into sneakers. He was STILL upset I was taller than him. A second date didn't happen. I didn't have an issue with his height, he did tho and more so with my height. Why should I try to be 'shorter' to appease a man's ego, especially when I'm not that tall to begin with! If you can't handle me in heels you don't deserve me in flats or, whatever Marilyn Monroe said
*the guy was like 4'9 max and really, the biggest 'lady boner killer' was, he was into 'industrial 90's music' and Tool was his favorite band
Its the insecurity that women like or prefer taller men so he probably put it out as he didnt like it before you could say anything idk. but thats red flag type insecure
@raziel9856 oh, I've only known confidante short guys before so, this was not a normal experience for me. Actually, as a kid I was a gymnast so, 'short' can be an advantage. Anyway, I wouldn't judge someone one their height but, 'content of character'
What's wrong with liking a particular kind of music?
If it is the only kind of music that someone likes is one kind to the exclusion of all others, I could see it. If you like the person, you could introduce them to other things.
@@McKavian it's a preference and, I've found certain types of 'favorite music' can also be a 'red flag'. Sting, Phil Collins, New Country (I could go on) are just not things I can not tolerate in a potential romantic partner. Leaves the toilet seat up? Short? Kinda dumb? Not a deal breaker. But if he listens to Offspring or Nickleback? GTFO
The act of getting his wife off the couch and to the bedroom is hilarious! Good thing my man can carry me otherwise he'd probably get this a bit less often than he already does, the couch is my home. lol
I'm 4'11" and my fiance' is 5'6"- we lucked out, it's kind of perfect haha.
We've had issues with the height thing when it has come to exes (and people) for both of us.
This skit was hilariously accurate
Are y’all gonna have kids and risk vertically challenging an innocent boy for the rest of his life?
The cadence is very Neil Patrick Haris. fantastic. 😍
As a Fellow Short King, I felt this on so many levels... Dumb question, how tall is your wife's dad? When I met my girl's dad, it was like meeting a Tower, Slenderman, Groot, Tall Things Etc. Honestly scared the crap out me...
You are hilarious - "critter pace" rofl!
Critter pace 😂 I can relate.
I came up with, put some throttle in your waddle 😁
HOW I RESPOND TO CLOWNS IS “DON’T WORRY, I HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH SIZE WHERE IT MATTERS MOST.” 😉😂
My dad was 5' 4" but he's already shrunk and now he's 5' 2". We had a good laugh about how I'll be the tallest in my family soon (I'm 5' 1"). Aging is not nice to short people. 😂
Short people live longer than tall people
@@dforrest4503…. Doesn’t matter if I live till I am 90 or 82. I would rather live a good life than have a slightly longer end to it
If I knew I would shrink (I’m 78) I would have hung upside down long in Freshman year when I got to 5’ even ! 😮😂
omg, the toy, i just startled my cat and woke my mother in law, giving an explanation to neither. lmao epic!
I’m not that short at 5 foot eight… But I was a late bloomer and I always got picked up for being short and I didn’t get picture stuff even though it was better. Smarter. Just wasn’t bigger. Thank you so much this comedy is hilarious gold and it’s the funniest short person jokes I’ve ever heard.
The pain of being short. I get hell every time someone walks in my house and catches me standing on a chair looking for something in my cabinets. I look like a toddler looking for cookies. Or when someone deliberately places things out of my reach just to watch me try and get it. Grrrrrr
I legit *just* bought a reachy grabber stick for getting tall stuff down. 🤣
My husband's work friend and his wife invited us out to an event. The wife is around 6'. The husband is 6'5". I'M 5'2"! I was literally RUNNING to keep up with them. It. Was. HORRIBLE. They're lovely people, we had a great time once I was able to sit down.
It was the "if she wakes up with a stutter is it a deal breaker" that killed me XD
As a 5' female I so relate!!!😂
Critter pace....story of my life...AND front of the photos!!! YES😂
Some disadvantages of being tall to help the short guys feel better; airplanes are very uncomfortable.
It's harder to pick stuff up off the ground.
We hit our heads on things.
People make us reach for things.
I’m 4’ 11” and I RARELY ask anyone besides store personnel and my own family members to reach anything for me, and when it comes to my own family I only ask when they happen to be right where I want to reach - otherwise I’ll climb on stepstools, chairs, counters, tables and ladders just so I can reach stuff w/o bothering anyone 😅
I carry an umbrella/parasol with me every time I go out and have basically perfected the art of using the end of it to knock products off the top shelves in supermarkets and catch them as they fall, but I’m always grateful whenever a taller stranger notices what I’m trying to do and takes the thing off the shelf for me out of the kindness of his/her heart, because depending on how heavy or breakable the product packaging is, it can be a dangerous business 😅
I always ask the closest tall person, at the store, to reach things! I mean, I would get things from the bottom shelf for them ,if they asked! 😉
You still got it Drew!
As a short person in a family of tall people I enjoy reminding them I am fun size.
When he said “knees and toes,” I lost it 😂😂😂 almost choked on my own spit
Please come to Tucson, Arizona. You're amazing and we need your humor
Was in Arizona earlier this year
@@TheDrewLynch Dang! I wish I found you sooner. Hopefully we'll be graced with your presence again soon. Wait until Monsoon season is over. It's miserable here right now.
As another short adult man I felt this to my core, and I can probably never see Shrek again hahah
10:51 “I look like a toddler who saw a toy he likes”…or two toys lol. 🍉🍉
My illegal name Andres! Ha! 😂🤣
As an abnormally tall guy I'm sorry to everyone for ruining photos, i have to kneel down most of the time to fit in frame
The critter pace is so real xD
Man, that cracked me up.
7:06 the joke about how short people hate when tall people touch the top of the door frame lol, my son turned 14 last week and he’s 5’6/7 and I’m his mother, 5’1 and I got mad over the weekend when he did that 😂
Im 5'9 mother 5'5 but I never disrespect her. Sometimes I feel guilty the difference is so big. (I'm 14)
Personally, I like being able to fit comfortably in planes and roller coasters…😂
As a short kid, I can totally relate to Drew. I feel ya bro
youre one of the few comedians that makes me lose my breath when laughing holy shit keep it up i am excited for your hilarious future friend!
❤ If you can ever go see him live… Do It! He is hilarious. I cry- laughed through the whole thing.
My bestie is like 6ft and I’m 5’3, and now I know the name to when I’m walking fast behind him trying to keep up, “critter pace” 😫🤣
I once did an experiment where I wore undetectable lifts (approx. +4 inches) to events. At first, I figured there would be no difference. But, nope! People approached me, took interest in me, chatted with more engagement. It was actually surreal. Again, I thought I was imagining things, but every instance where I tried the experiment, the results were always similar. When I didn't wear them, almost no one took notice of me. 💪😎✌️ It's a great feeling. Lived with it all my existence, too! Good stuff.
3:19 I'm 5' 4" myself and, dude you nailed it with that line
you're so funny. as a short person I have to set up things. no dishes above the second shelf, clocks have all been moved into a position where I can change the time without getting a step stool - except the chime clock on the wall ( my non short son changes that ).
Critter pace 😂 I so get that
This was one of my favorite parts of the special. My belly hurt by the end of it. Great job on this 1 Añdrés!! Been a fan since I 1st seen you on AGT & you've grown in your comedy & as an inspiration to a whole group of men that you probably have no idea how you're comedy helps us get through the day. Thank you for keeping America Great Again!! #BANANA 🍌🌊 #MMMMMM 🫴🤱🍼🤌🙋🍄🪩🪩
Omg "relationship to the ground not the sky." 😂😂😂
I love you Drew.
That actually caused me physical pain from laughing so hard.
Thanks man.
As a fellow short person, I understand these things too well. Although I was used as an armrest at times and would warn my tall friends that I could cut them at the knees when they called me cute. ^.^ Though will say, I can move through crowded places a lot easier.
So hilarious, had the crowd going wild the whole time! Short people unite!
