BMX - How tall are you all?

Hi all, how tall are you all, I was recently told by somebody that anybody over 5' 8" should not ride BMX's, and that this is a very bad thing. Suffice to say I told them to bugger off!! I'm 6' 3", and ride my old Freestyler BMX, layback seatpost, and forward bars = No Problem...
I'm keen to find more tips that you 'taller riders' can share, for me there is no problems in my eyes.

When I started riding I was 6'2".. I'm about 6'3" now and I've been riding for 4 or 5 years with no proplems related to my height.

i'm 6'2" or 2" and i ride a 20" frame without problems of any kind. them people who chirp you know nothin.

If you actually put a bmx bike up next to a mountain bike and look at where the handlebars are and where the cranks are in relationship to the bars you will see that often bmx bikes have a higher height in the bars and more clearance between the bars and the pedals than mountain bikes do.

It is just when you are sitting down that things may feel a little tight, but that is why you either run your seat way up, or you just never sit down. Seats are more for stability than for actual use on a bmx bike.

The average pro is like 5'10" - 6' tall. The average pro is in his mid 20's... What business does someone OUTSIDE our sport have making any comments? It just shows their stupidity.
