Everyone knows celebrities lie about their height. That actor who comes up as 6 feet tall on IMDb is definitely only 5 feet 6 inches at best, every time. But what do you do when the height deceiver at hand is… a cartoon character?
Frozen fans were flabbergasted to discover Olaf’s supposed height, per Google, is 5 feet 4 inches. Now, if you’ve been living in an ice cave and don’t know who Olaf is, he’s this presumably pocket-sized snowman who accompanies Elsa and Anna on their adventures in both films.
I am so fucking sorry but if Olaf is 5’4” then how fucking tall are anna and elsa pic.twitter.com/I10RFn7cwf

The idea of a talking snowman, even a friendly one, being roughly the same height as a real-life human is making people rethink their love of what they thought was a cuddly, little snow dude.
“If i see a 5’4 tall talking snowman I’d shit my pants,” one user tweeted.
Another pointed out Olaf is actually bigger than many humans.
“Good luck sleeping tonight,” they wrote.
Y’all #Olaf height completely changes his character tho. If i see a 5’4 tall talking snowman I’d shit my pants pic.twitter.com/Fk3TW2ScH0

The scary thing about Olaf being 5'4 in height is unlike the whole "PEPPA PIG IS 7 FEET TALL" thing awhile back, this is actually in Frozen Canon and IN the christmas special.

SOMETHING NO ONE TALKS ABOUT MUCH: OLAF FROM FROZEN IS A TRUE NIGHTMARE AND A CRIME AGAINST GOD

But another challenge presents itself. How freaking tall must his human companions be if he’s 5 feet 4 inches? People on Twitter are busting open their brains trying to twist the calculations into anything that kind of makes sense.
“Since olaf is 5’4, i think elsa and anna are the same height as peppa pig…” one person wrote, referencing another shocking supposed cartoon character height. A seemingly random Google search in July found that Peppa Pig is over 7 feet tall.
Others pointed out that, from looking at a photo, Elsa and Anna make up roughly two and a half Olafs, meaning the Frozen-verse humans are 11 feet 2 inches tall.

Okay that means that if Olaf truly is based off the snowman they created as kids (height included), that Anna and Elsa were over 5’5 at like six and seven years old. I’m- pic.twitter.com/egihksYdWo

if you take elsa’s height of 5’7” and divide it by the scale of olafs in this photo, olaf is actually only approximately 2’3” so he must have measured his height wrong since he did it himself. in this essay, i will- pic.twitter.com/xNMwvNLCVP

new height measurement scale is:
— local whore of the woodz (@aphamericashole) December 7, 2019
1. shorter than olaf
2. taller than olaf
I haven't stopped thinking about how olaf is 5'4 so I made a to-scale height chart for elsa, adam driver, and baby yoda pic.twitter.com/OXp9ahzyfb
