That makes me wonder if there is a height range in humans that maximizes lifespan, on average. Beyond cancer, people that are too tall probably face other shortcomings as they age, like higher damage from falls, increased risk of back pain, increased wear and tear on joints, et cetera. At some point height must have diminishing returns on health.
