Yea 6"2 woulda very tall back then. Pretty sure 5"7 wouldn't be short either. Think the song was reffering to Washington's reputation. Now James Madison was like 5"4. Thats short unless your in indonesia
Too add to that Thomas Jefferson was also 6"2. So while Washingtom was a large man they are reffering to his reputation. He was a no brainer who coulda kept getting re-elected if he so desired. Once he leaves office the field is wide open because no one else is as popular. I mean we think of Thomas jefferson as being larger then life but he tied a man who despite being pretty progressive is only remembered as a con man and the Vice president who killed Alexander Hamilton.
Average height at the time was roughly 5’7- Hamilton’s height. Washington being 6’2 was quite tall. John Adams was on the shorter side but Jefferson was a skinny, 6’3. Abnormally tall for the time.
Six degrees of separation: the actor who portrayed a teacher at John Adams high school, Mr. Feeney, on boy meets world also portrayed john Adams in the musical 1776.
He prevented the US from getting into another war, by staying neutral and succeeding in keeping peace with both England AND France. That is a big something that no one liked and thought was stupid, until he succeeded too late for it to have any impact on his re-election chances. And Jefferson only beat Adams by eight votes, so he didn't win "so easily," unless you mean in popularity.
@@malcolmmilk Aaron Burr and him actually tied exactly in votes. Adams prevented war, but he did nothing other than that. He wanted neutrality, but Washington also kept that without getting everyone to hate him because he accomplished greater things during his presidency.
There's 13 songs left in the show and only 6 between now and something very dramatic.... bring your hankies and stress balls, this is going to be rough....
Basically it was true Washington was a pretty tall man to most people . He was 6’2, while hamilton was 5’7 and Madison 5’4 so they are smaller than him physically like Jefferson’s an inch taller than Washington but because of how Washington holds himself he makes people around him feel small
First three presidents were Washington, Adams, Jefferson in that order. (Also fun fact John Adams son would go on to be the 6th president) Also Washington was tall, he was like 6’1
2:35 No, the French overthrew the monarch and wrote La Marseillaise about how every citizen should be on guard to defend their motherland from tyranny, and use their blood to water the fields of France.
Jane, you really should drink beforehand... or is that a signature? To me, people are here to see your reaction, not watch you drink. Not a big big deal but enough that I would give you a polite head's up.
And after this song the King sits down on the left hand of the stage so that he could get a good view of it all.....
Omg his little dance moves are sooo cute
Washington was 6'2" so technically he was "large"
And John Adams was only 5'7", so the difference was even more extreme.
@Adam Greene It's still the average.

"John Adams!! Boy meets world!!" That was also my reaction 😂😂
Any President would have had a hard time following up Washington. Let's just say John Adams would have had a hard time following up _anyone._
Pablo360able Trump has entered the chat
@@ivanmurillo459 DAMMIT lol took the words outta my mouth
@@TheRibottoStudios I agree. Trump would have been a good second president.

Jane and JV there’s a million things you haven’t seen. Just you wait! Just you wait!!
Fun Fact: William Daniels, the actor that played Feeny in Boy Meets World, played John Adams in the musical 1776.
SIT DOWN JOHN, SIT DOWN!

John Adams was the second president, but he really did nothing during his presidency.
Not just that. He passed the Sedition Act, a huge infringement on free speech that was so unpopular it eventually cost him the presidency.
You could say he negative accomplished.
@@Pablo360able That's why thomas jefferson won so easily. Everyone, even federalist, disliked him in the end.

Ayyeee I’m so glad you two are reacting to this series. It is rare to see reactors react to Hamilton. Thank You!
I wonder how tall King George III was, that he considered John Adams at 5’7" as "little guy"
I'm 5'4" so anything above that is higher to my POV
There's 13 songs left in the show and only 6 between now and something very dramatic.... bring your hankies and stress balls, this is going to be rough....
Lol I remember the stream you guys recorded this from that was like back in the fall
The channel was hacked for 5 months! We finally got it back and are editing now :)

what he means is no one was a great as washington

Also Washington was tall, he was like 6’1
He didn’t mean necessarily physically tall lmao

Washington was 6'2", and Adams was 5'7".
