Heighty is mighty?

[Kuruharan]

The only example I can think of is one I'm sure most people won't get, but, for example, look at Peter Crouch on the football pitch. He just sort of... towers. It draws the eye. Tall characters are there to stick out from the mundane.

For some reason, I have a silly notion you are trying some reverse psychology on us...since tall characters also attract the unfortunate attention of goblin swordsmen, snipers (as I believe narfforc pointed out earlier)...and referees .
