I remember when I was in Year 1, my class had to do a march past at some official function at my school. I was put in charge of carrying some sort of banner, not because I was the leader, but because I was about 30cm taller than all of my classmates. It just looked stupid with me in the line with the rest of them!

I’m a bit of a genetic anomaly; I’m probably 20-30cm taller than the average Sri Lankan male. I’m 6 foot 4 inches, and around 110kg meaning most people are generally physically intimidated by me. But you’ve probably realised from my 52 project that I wouldn’t hurt a fly! I might be tempted to hurt an aeroplane if I was annoyed enough though!

This photo couldn’t have happened if not for the amazingness of the Creative Commons licence and flickr user Milton CJ’s fantastic photo of the Empire State Building. Thanks Milton!
