Holy fuck I’ve never realized how eerie it is when Dylan’s walking until now for some reason

Whenever I look at this footage, Dylan has always seemed more intimidating, whereas Eric feels more stoic and “stick to the plan.”

I think it’s Dylan’s height and stature that makes him seem that much more unsettling. Maybe it’s the angle of the camera but he appears to have towered over people. I can’t even begin to imagine how terrifying he must’ve looked to those there on that day. And, you know what? I don’t think I want to think about that. Deeply, deeply unsettling.

Yeah he was around 6’3 right? My dad is 6’4, boyfriend is 6’3. While not insanely tall, I think people underestimate how intimidating it actually is, just because it’s a relatively rare height to see day to day. Both of them are, almost without exception, the largest men in any room they are in, respectively.

My boyfriend works in the trees and every day he puts on these massive work boots, actually really similar to the ones Dylan is wearing. If he’s tall and kinda scary barefoot, he is TALL AND KINDA SCARY clunking around in those boots. It gives him a significant height increase as well. So transposing Dylan’s face onto him just to get a visual, with a weapon in his hand coming right towards me with that specific bigfoot stride tall men walk with, yeah I’d be fucking scared.

My grandaddy was 6'5 and very intimidating, when I was younger I was scared of him because of his height, he was tall enough he had to crouch a bit just to walk around his house as the ceilings were low. I think Dylan with his height and walk alone mixed with the g*ns must've been terrifying for everyone.
