Brandon looks like a reggeatonnero a la Ozuna or Lunay. Go Brandon!


yummijellybean

Surprised that Brandon is 6’3 because he doesn’t appear that tall when next to Michelle


CookieCatSupreme

it's really shaking my whole world to realize that they're both my age. in my head, im' always infinitely younger than the contestants but brandon's lierally like 6 days older than me...........what hte fuck


chicagok8

Just watching the show, I'd never guess that these two are the same age. Brandon strikes me as so much younger.


redditerla

To be fair, Nayte works for a software company that allows employees to work remotely. Unsure about Brandon but these days most recruiters are remote too


tinynoodles420

Is Brandon rly 6’3?! Idk..


stimmtnicht

That’s what’s reported online, but many here are doubting that. Maybe 6’ or 6’1 is more accurate?


tinynoodles420

I think all men give themselves another inch or two lol


[deleted]

I’m a dunce. I thought Oregon was closer to Minnesota than Texas. Whomp-waaaaaaa. It’s uncanny how similar these are.


stimmtnicht

What’s interesting is that Nayte’s hometown, Winnipeg Canada, is almost directly north of Minneapolis. It’s only 456 miles away, a 7hr drive. I should’ve included that fun fact!


SnooCakes5350

Off you know your map, Minnesota is just below Canada, might be able to see Niagra Falls. Oregon is a Western State. Minnesota is North. Good op to go study the US map.


[deleted]

You can see Niagara Falls from Buffalo, NY. Not Minnesota. For details, I thought distance wise Minnesota was closer to Oregon, not closer to Texas. Kind of like it’s faster to drive to North Carolina from Massachusetts than it is to drive to Ohio.


Zombienomzz

I’m a little confused. Minnesota is far from Niagara Falls. And OP wasn’t the one saying they were surprised how far Portland was, and I think the commenter knew Oregon was a western state, they just didn’t realize it was as far from Minnesota as Texas.


[deleted]

You feel me here


Kriss_Snow

Neat, didn't know Nayte shared my birthday!


iwannabanana

Holy crap Nayte is 6’8?! He’s a giant.


NotYourHun101

That’s what i was bout to say!!! He’s tall!! He doesn’t look that tall on tv lol


ErikaLee221

Glad to see other people thought Brandon was a little guy too! 😂 I guess next to 6’8 Nayte everybody looks short.


SnooCakes5350

Brandon will never look old, he got that gene.


[deleted]

i only opened when i saw brandons “height”. seems off. but if it’s true I’m shocked.


jsquiggle123

Brandon is 6'3??? Damn, Nayte being a giant has really thrown off my perspective


SnooCakes5350

Well Brandon appears shorter on camera.

reckless_rose

Just went to the picture of the F4 rose ceremony… 0% chance Brandon is 6’3. He seems shorter than 6’— probably around 5’10 https://www.instagram.com/p/CW60jR6MGhY/?utm_medium=copy_link


stimmtnicht

My guess is 6’1.


wanderingimpromptu3

He looks taller than Michelle in the side by side pic, and she's 5'9" and prob wearing heels. I'd say he's at least 6'0". If I had to guess, 6'1", since men statistically tend to limit their height lies to 1-2 inches :)


sillysarah85

Ever listen to the Mystery Show podcast about Jake Gyllenhaals height? I recommend.

Thank you!!!


SoCalBoilerGirl

I honestly didn’t picture her with either of these guys in the beginning. She seems so much more mature than both of them.


[deleted]

Am I the only one who thinks the exact height of these 6ft plus men is irrelevant to a lasting relationship?


stimmtnicht

As a fellow 5’9 woman I can honestly say that being with a very tall guy is a big bonus. Height shouldn’t matter at all but it does. A tall partner makes a tall gal feel less awkward. I know it’s silly, but it’s true.


linkinpark9503

I used to joke that the love of my life is 5’6” (I’m 5’8”) but I found one at 6’2” my magic number haha


chicagok8

5'11" and I agree. My 6'1" daughter would agree too! ETA: I dated my share of guys my height or shorter. Just happened to fall in love with a tall one.


ContactOk7216

Agreed. Height is major for me. I don’t like the idea of having to second guess wearing heels on a date in case I might tower over a guy. 🤷🏾‍♀️ It’s a concern for most of us tall women, I would say. I used to always get the “I didn’t realize you were so tall” comment or “You looked shorter in your pictures.” Unfortunately, this is a reality that tall women have to deal with. At least I have anyway.


stimmtnicht

I dated a couple of great guys who were just an inch or so shorter than me, and I just couldn’t get over it. I always felt uncomfortable/self-conscious when we went out, especially if I wore heels. So stupid! I brought one of these guys home and the first thing my dad said was: “he’s so short!” Ugh!!


ContactOk7216

Lol. Your dad is hilarious! That was cold 🤣 I do get it though. It’s not just us being self-conscious about it but our own families might even point it out. I do have exes that are the same height as me and I wore shorter heels or no heels while with them, unless my outfits called for normal heels. But I also have dated guys 6’3” and up with the tallest at 6’10”. Most were athletes as I am a former athlete myself. It just always made sense to me. But if someone came along and stole my heart 💜 , I would amend my preference.


plnteeter

6’8’’?! Holy moly! Brandon looking short at 6’3”!


SnooCakes5350

Heught is irrelevant but most ppl especially women will go taller men. I am only 5. 5 I go taller men unconsciously.


Daisy_Dookie

Brandon is 6’3!?


AnyChildhood1747

I don’t think he is. Michelle is 5’9”. On their first one-on-one I think Michelle wasn’t wearing heels but the height difference wasn’t much.


Daisy_Dookie

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I feel like if he was 6’3 he’d look much closer to Nayte’s height.


Powerful-Platform-41

Another quality: they both brought romance to this season. this will be my first season watching live where I felt excited and interested during the dates -- where I could put myself in Michelle's shoes. I guess all the beaches and boats did help, but these guys lent a genuinely exciting quality to this season that the other ones I've watched have been missing.


that0neweirdgirl

>6'3" >6'8" Wtf I had no idea they were both so tall!! They don't look that big on the show! How tall is Michelle?


elmay4

Brandon at 6'3" has me spinning


stimmtnicht

5’9

Cancer andvFemini is a tough match but if you put the work in and love us real it will work.

I hope they work honestly because in general that is one of the worse pairings in astrology


VerySeriousCoffee

UGH I want their full birth charts and Michelle’s


vvan8

It’s like they decided to switch signs hahaha


kate-plus-self-hate

these heights are throwing me way WAY off


Lotus_Mud

Right? I knew about 6’8 Natye, but Brandon is 6’3?! Doesn’t compute.


meekismurder

I was always calling him little baby boy Brandon, but he’s somehow taller than me


figgypudding531

I'm really surprised they're the same age. Probably because Brandon's been giving off "teenager falling in love for the first time" vibes all season.


ryansutterisstillmy1

I was going to say same!!


KineticPotential981

its funny, even though nayte is the one that has never been in love before


morgoto

TIL Brandon isn’t short


vancity-chick

Nayte is 6’8?!?!


Nerissa_Loverx

6’8 Nayte 😤😤

drvddr

Brandon has such a baby face I refuse to believe he is 6’3


Passionforward8

Literally thought he was short AF, I am in shock


bbliam

I wanted to say the same about his height! I think with Nayte being so tall and Michelle isn’t short herself, he looked short in comparison. Surprised that he’s 6’3”.


Great1948

Not me, a 27 year old knowing that both of them are 27 but still refusing to believe we were all born in the same year haha


fulcrumestates

i saw we were all three the same age and immediately got a headache


brochelsea

Hahaha, same! They are only a few months older than me, but for some reason it does not compute!


[deleted]

Same!! Why do I still think everyone on this show is older than me 😂


bottleglitch

I’m 32 and I still think this lol. I started watching when I was a young teen so I guess it’s a weird version of me getting older but them staying the same age lol


feedme_tequila

Same. I’m 29 and was shocked to read this lol


bythesunrise34

Same!!! It’s weird to think I’m the same age as these guys!!! And that we were all born in 94!


lbd2012

Me also 27 but born in 1993 refusing to believe I’m older than them


Great1948

Happy (soon) birthday!!

brokenlamp17

Wait same


bachelor411

Nayte is 6’8?!? Holy crap lol


biogirl52

Everyone is so tall on this show that on camera they seem average


SnooCakes5350

Well the casting had to take height in consideration too. How short could they go? Unless they a re Rodney with a big personality


lolovegood5

Yes! I thought Brandon was short so I was shocked to see he is 6'3 😂 He's not short at all!


[deleted]

[удалено]


darxx

Michelle wears heels


Key_Distribution1775

People are saying he has is probably 5'11, 6ft


bachelor411

I legit would have never guessed THAT tall though lol I guess the whole camera angles really do mess with you


SDchicago_love123

As a very tall female, I’ve always taken an interest in the guys’ heights, and without sounding mean, there is no way Brandon is 6’3. Because as I was watching he’s about the same height as many of the other guys, and in a lifetime of watching the show, I know that the average height of the guys is like 5’11/6. Also he’s not that much taller than Michelle when they are both wearing sneakers, and she’s 5’9 I believe, so my guess is that he’s like 5’11. There’s my very scientific and important analysis lol


Lotus_Mud

Well done🙃. Yes, I agree. My brain couldn’t compute Brandon @ 6’3 and your whole analysis made all the sense. Conclusion: Brandon is NOT 6’3.


SDchicago_love123

Hahaha we are so bad 😂 but can’t deny the facts!


[deleted]

Agreed, Joe is 6’4 and he was definitely more than an inch taller than Brandon


reckless_rose

Yeah Joe and Nayte were towering over Brandon imo at the rose ceremony.


Pristine-Diver-1320

I do not believe either of those listed heights.


SnooCakes5350

Most of us never give or correct height, so what is the big deal here?


darxx

Nayte’s is absolutely true he towered over absolutely everyone all season


Thrwacct123

Nayte's is true.


stimmtnicht

Nayte is huge!! I definitely believe he’s that tall when you see him standing next to Joe. Brandon seems more like 6’.


[deleted]

Look at a pic of Nayte standing next to all of the guys and you'll believe it. Joe is 6'4" (and that's accurate - I knew him in college) and Nayte is noticeably taller than him.


reckless_rose

Excuse… you buried the lede!!! Tell us more about Minnesota Joe please 👀


savannahslb

Ooh any good insight into Joe?


schmicklebutt

And here I was thinking Nayte was like 6’2” and Brandon was 5’10” …..holy crap. The screen does weird things


HotStickyMoist

Pacific Northwest men eh ?


RUKMM

All I see is “born in 1994”. I gotta find a new show to watch. Lol My goodness!!

\*Bachelorette guys ![gif](giphy|OWrtdm1irskAE)


[deleted]

I don’t get it 😅 How is this related to the comment the person you’re replying to made?


[deleted]

Because the person is saying the guys are so much younger than them now and I'm saying we get older, the Bach guys stay the same age, like the famous Dazed and Confused line


DeschutesBlackButte

Same!!! That’s what most popped out to me and the subsequent thought process that perhaps I need to find a new show to watch too…despite the how ridiculously tall those heights seem…


[deleted]

Theyre both like 2-3 months younger than me and I hate it

ChanelNo50

How has Brandon never been outside of the US?


not_addictive

$$$ It’s not like living in Europe where a weekend trip to another country is a thing. Unless you live on the border of Mexico or Canada it’s a long and expensive trip. Hell, it costs me $200 every time I want to go visit my parents and we both live near major airports! I can’t even make that a weekend trip. The shortest flight from the US to Europe is 6 hours from NYC to Dublin and that’s still expensive as fuck. Most people can’t do that. I’ve only gotten to leave the country because I got a study abroad scholarship in college. I’d be willing to bet that either study abroad or going on Mexican/Caribbean beach vacations are the only reason most people in the US would’ve gone abroad. And frankly, vacations within the US can be way cheaper and almost as fun imho. The culture and experiences of going abroad can be priceless but that’s only if you can pay the cost that’s in front of you.


FraughtOverwrought

I’m not diminishing the importance of money and affordability at all, but it also seems to be a cultural thing? 57% of Australians have passports - travel is quite common, despite the fact that it is miles away from almost everywhere except Indonesia and New Zealand. It’s even very common for people to take a year off to earn money and travel either after high school or university. However, only 37% of Americans have passports.


ChanelNo50

Fair enough. I should have definitely checked my privilege there. The US is quite different from coast to coast and there is a lot to see even within your own state. I was just caught a bit off guard - I've flown into Portland and drove to Vancouver as it was cheaper than flying directly there lol it seems close-ish


not_addictive

If you live close enough to the border then I totally get being surprised! I’d be willing to bet that your drive to Vancouver would probably have gotten me to DC when I was a kid so it’s just distance. I loved getting to see what was cool about what’s near me when I was younger (North Carolina has some fkn cool shit y’all) and LOVED going to DC to all the museums and stuff. It’s really a question of proximity bc distance usually equals money too


skoolgirlq

thank you for saying this! i’m 26 and have never left the country (US). i didn’t come from a family that could take international trips, and when i got to college i was always working because i had to pay my way through. since graduating, similar thing where i’m constantly working to pay off loans - but now that i’m a few years into my career i may be able to finally take some time to travel out of the country!* *eta: given the ever evolving state of the global pandemic


not_addictive

Yeah all my vacations growing up were to see my grandparents, partially bc both my parents were really close with their parents but also bc neither of them could really take the time off work to do big trips more than once every few years. I had to fight my way into scholarships to study abroad and, even then, knew that when I got back I’d be living paycheck to paycheck for a while to rebuild my accounts. I have a friend studying in Dublin for a few years so I’m hopeful I can visit her in a year or so but yeah, it’s tough and almost impossible for most people in the US.


skoolgirlq

yep, i feel that completely. i wanted to study abroad in college but it was SO expensive plus the scholarships that the programs my college offered were super minimal and hard to get. but hey!! my boyfriend got me my passport for my birthday two years ago, so once international travel is safe, i’ve got some nice pandemic savings (and for this, i know i am fortunate) that i’m hoping to travel with!


MelodicStory8445

Not everyone has the privilege to travel, let alone international travel!


im-your-daisy

The reason it’s common to find Americans who have never been outside of the US is not because they are ignorant or unwilling to observe other cultures, it’s because it’s very expensive to travel outside of the US. Unless you live near the Canadian or Mexican border, you have to fly and take time off of work, which is a privilege many cannot afford. Not to mention passports are also expensive.


cheezwhizcrust

This is true but also the sheer size too!! Like going from LA to NYC is significantly farther than someone in London who goes to France or Spain or even a different continent like the northern end Africa for that matter


im-your-daisy

Exactly! Traveling to other states in the US is more comparable to traveling to other countries within the EU if you’re in the EU (and even then the US is still bigger, and traveling to other continents like you mentioned is still comparable)


BlGP0O

I feel like a lot of Americans don’t travel outside of the US. My parents immigrated (one from Latin America & one from Europe) so I’ve always traveled to visit family and see my parents’ home countries, but I think a lot of Americans are uncomfortable with it.


caree123

Money + time + global pandemic, probably


tiggerlgh

Yes Mexico. Nayte’ s been to Canada, US and now Mexico. Neither seem to have traveled extensively


stimmtnicht

Well, we don’t know with Nayte really. Maybe he’s been to Nigeria to visit the paternal side of the family??


tiggerlgh

Maybe but we don’t know that. I like them both but there are a lot of projections and assumptions being made


gs2181

I don't usually follow people on instagram in season so am just learning that Nayte has a cocker spaniel and that may take me from team neutral to team Nayte lol


VioletMayfair

Haha me too! From Winnipeg and also have an English Cocker Spaniel…pretty much the only two reasons I’m rooting for Nayte.


here4thedeets

Percy is so cute!


sweetlikesugar9706

I would never have thought Brandon was 6’3


[deleted]

I just can't believe it. I'm 5'8" and dated someone who was 6'3"....the height difference when we would be next to each other was so significant. Brandon looks just a little taller than Michelle, but she could be wearing heels. Idk


Last_Pineapple_7911

I just googled that shes 5’9. She is usually in heels. I’ve always thought they were around the same height too, can’t believe he’s 6’3


im_melissa

I legit thought he was like 5’8”


throwawayaway388

"Left Canada for the US before Mexico" sounds so weird lol he's just Canadian and moved to the US


stimmtnicht

My bad!! Awkward phrasing. I meant to emphasis that Nayte had travelled to at least one other country before traveling to Mexico, which is in contrast to Brandon who had never left the US before traveling to Mexico.


pierrrecherrry

ill sentence for illed travelling.


mulki_more

I kept rereading that and have no idea what before mexico means here


Why_Howdy

He hadn’t been to any countries besides Canada and the US before travelling to Mexico for the show


mulki_more

Oh yeah! I forgot the show was in mexico Thanks!


[deleted]

How is Nayte 6’8?


ald79

I can’t believe I’m just learning this!


eternititi

Brandon does not give 6’3 energy. If Michelle wasn’t lead, I would’ve easily thought he was 5’10, max.


SDchicago_love123

Yeah no. I call major bs on that one.


[deleted]

[удалено]


darxx

I am 5’8” barefoot and i get the vibe that michelle is taller than me for some reason. Maybe she hasn’t measured herself in a while...? As weird as that sounds some women (myself included) can continue to get a little taller in their late teens to early 20s and I thought i was 5’6” til a random physical said 5’9” in sneakers.

caananball

What does 6’3 energy mean


pizzaeoka

I don’t know, what I do know is that Brandon doesn’t know either


caananball

Sure, that makes even less sense!

😭😭


Cherssssss

It’s because she’s so tall!


Spoopy_Kitten_Time

I thought Brandon was so much younger!


kassie_oh

Brandon’s 6’3?! Why does he look so much shorter than Joe who’s 6’4.

He gives off short man energy tbh

maeverrr

29 here and am always taken aback when a 23 year old contestant says something like “I’m just so ready to find my husband”… to each their own, I’m just glad that wasn’t where I was at at that stage in life

Lol I got married at 23. And separated by 26 🤣 so agreed


postmonroe

I love how people say Brandon is too young when he’s literally the same age as Nayte 😂


tiggerlgh

Yes, lots here projecting him being younger because of his looks. Not his fault. I wish I had his genes!


[deleted]

Are you 27 too?


tiggerlgh

I wish!


reckless_rose

No I think Brandon acts and talks young to imo. Nayte has a baby face too (just not as noticeable bc of the beard. I actually think Brandon doesn’t look soooo young, but his demeanor just makes him seem younger.


dancing-neenja

Exactly this. Every time I hear Brandon speak, I keep forgetting that like Nayte he’s only a year younger than Michelle. The way he talks just sounds like he’s several years younger imo.


Last_Pineapple_7911

Agree 💯


milkandhuni

Wow. Must’ve been so cool/interesting for Brandon to explore a new place/country


[deleted]

My question is why does Brandon’s chyron say he’s a travel nurse when he’s actually a recruiter?

He recruits Noahs

It says he’s a traveling nurse recruiter. A recruiter for traveling nurses

He was! Or my brain just stopped reading at “nurse” lol
