I’m 5’3 and weak as a kitten. DH is 6’1 and about 18st so there’s no chance I would even try

TorroFerney · 21/03/2025 17:32

5 foot 3 eight and a half stone versus 6 foot and twelve and a half stone so no. You have made me want to try though!

olderbutwiser · 21/03/2025 17:34

He weighs twice what I do and is nearly a foot taller. I feel no need to try.

Gymbunny2025 · 21/03/2025 17:51

I doubt it. He’s 6’4 and full of muscle (to quote the song, badly!). Need to try 😂

Wigtopia · 21/03/2025 17:52

Yup! 👌💪

No. He is 5 stone heavier than me, and 8" taller.

😆 Is he from Brussels?!

Gliblet · 21/03/2025 17:53

Christ no 😆 He's 6'5" and built like a tank. I know enough holds and throws that I can put someone his size on the floor and keep them there if I need to but I couldn't give them a piggyback!

HomeBodyClub · 21/03/2025 17:54

No way. I’m 5ft 6 size 6.

He is more than double me.

Iknowaboutpopular · 21/03/2025 17:54

Absolutely not. I think I'd buckle 😂

DiscoDragon · 21/03/2025 17:55

Not a chance! I'm 5ft nothing and he's 6ft and big-built! I'd probably snap in half if he jumped on my back!

PiastriThePastry · 21/03/2025 17:56

Absolutely the fuck not. For starters, he’s 6/7” taller than me and has a rugby-player type built but also I have dodgy as fuck knees and a bad back… I’d be on the floor 😂

HarrietJonesFlydaleNorth · 21/03/2025 17:57

Hmm, piggyback now possibly.

But 20 years ago I had him up on my shoulders at a Black Sabbath concert because he’s a shortarse and couldn’t see anything! 😆🤘

menopausalfart · 21/03/2025 18:00

It would crush every bone in my body.

NewYearNewDietAgain · 21/03/2025 18:04

Nope. He’s only 2 inches taller than me but 2 stone heavier!

reversegear · 21/03/2025 18:05

I can, but I used to weight train, he’s 6’1 and I’m 5,2 so it’s not some much the weight, more that his feet dangle in the floor 🤣🤣

Magpiecomplex · 21/03/2025 18:09

No chance! I'm hypermobile and my legs would just concertina into a badly arranged heap.

Sourisblanche · 21/03/2025 18:10

No he’s a 6’5 Dutch guy, not a chance. I’m also tall but of slight build. TBH our dc are all taller than me and I’m not so sure I could piggy back them either!

Chuchoter · 21/03/2025 18:13

No. He's a very fit, strapping man and I wouldn't be able to lift him let alone give him a piggy back.

FortyElephants · 21/03/2025 18:18

Yes, for a few steps anyway! We weigh the same and I weight train

MrsWaltonGoggins · 21/03/2025 18:20

Yes! He’s a good foot taller than me but he weighs about 10 stone and I erm… do not.

Ddakji · 21/03/2025 18:21

Yes - he’s slight, slim and not that tall.

EveryOtherNameTaken · 21/03/2025 18:22

5'6" 10 stone v 6'3" 19 stone. I'll give it a miss 😅

mindutopia · 21/03/2025 18:28

🤣 No, he’s 6’5. While I am no petite little flower, he would break me. I’m not sure I could give my 7 year old one at the moment!

SwanOfThoseThings · 21/03/2025 18:33

Yes, he's 5'8 and very skinny 😃
