Did you know that Human Beings are getting taller?

long beds for tall people

Did you know that Human Beings as a species are actually getting taller? There is evidence to suggest that in just 200 years on average people have grown by around 4cm taller than our relatives were back in the 1800’s. And remember the Cavemen? From the remains that have been excavated, we now know that Stone Age people were around 10-20cm shorter than we are today – their beds must have been tiny.

Perhaps the main reason for our latest “growth spurt” is simply down to better nutrition and improved health care services, but Scientists and Geneticists who study our evolutionary path say the changes that we go through as a species lend themselves to making us stronger as a race – it’s a survival thing. There is also evidence to show that taller people are also living longer so it’s a good thing we offer an 11 year Guarantee on all of our Beds then!

Are we all destined to become pro-basketball players in the future? Who can say – but one thing that is for certain is that taller bodies need extra long beds and that’s where we step in! Get Laid Beds offers a bespoke “Customisation Service” so we can modify any of our standard bed frames to make smaller beds for smaller people and tall beds for taller people – and we can also provide extra long bespoke sized tall mattresses to fit. We wouldn’t want your toes getting cold!
