need to watch breaking bad. if nothing else, to pinpoint every single moment that shows up in the season 3-5 remix that i somehow know by heart despite never seeing more than 5 minutes of the show
does he have big hands? i cant quite figure it out
Now anon, I know that when you sent this, you were almost certainly not asking me to pull out the measuring tape.
But it's too late. The measuring tape is already out, and I love nothing more than doing a good bit, so here we go. *Ahem*
According to the Golden Globe's website, their FAQs give the dimensions of the trophy as follows:
And according to this random but seemingly credible enough website about average hand sizes, this is how you measure hands:
And these are the averages for those measurements:
Now stay with me here. All of my measurements below are taken from the outside edge of the red and green lines.
If you look at the height of the trophy compared to the breadth of his hand, the 12.77 inch trophy is about three and a third hand breadths. So 12.77 divided by 3.33 gives us a hand breadth of about 3.83 inches. Slightly larger than the average above.
I'm assuming that the width measurement given for the trophy is referring to the base, which is the widest part. It's impossible to get a hand length measurement from this picture, but what I can do is get the length of his pinky from tip to first knuckle. The 3.64 inch base of the trophy is pretty much exactly three pinky knuckles. So we can estimate that pinky measurement at about 1.21 inches.
Now, let me tell you, it is almost impossible to find a picture of this man with his hands flat. He is constantly gesturing and curling his fingers. His expression in this picture matches the one that I had by the time I'd sifted through two dozen hand photos that just wouldn't work.
Anyway... What I did here was kept the pinky measure from the first photo as-is, and then resized this image until the same area of his hand matched up with the line. Then, I used that green line as a metric to measure the length of his hand from longest finger to wrist crease.
His full hand length comes out to seven pinky knuckles, and 1.21 times 7 brings us to 8.47 inches. Again, slightly larger than the average above.
So yes, I would say he has decently big hands, particularly for someone of his height, but nothing extraordinary. With the disclaimer that, of course, I have no idea what I'm doing and this is all just for laughs lol😉
When will my wife (Yvonne McGuinness) return from war (attend another event with Cillian, where she wears an outfit that eats him and everyone else alive)?
Hi, folks! I am so incredibly sorry to have disappeared off the face of the earth for like two months 😭
I promise I am totally fine! I've just had a lot going on for the last several weeks and haven't had the time or energy to devote to fandom stuff. Thought I was going to take a short break and then it kind of morphed into an unexpectedly longer break. And then I got wrapped up in the mental block of being like "oh my gosh, is it weird if I come back after all this time being inactive?" Which is honestly silly and probably just my own insecurity getting the better of me lol
But I really just want to say thank you to all of you lovely people for being so patient with me, and to everyone who has sent an ask/DM/etc. checking in on me, I love you and thank you for your kind words <3
I'm hoping to ease myself back into things here. I might not be super active at first as I try to prioritize my mental health and catch up on messages, but I miss y'all a ton! Thank you guys again for being awesome, and I hope you're all ready for more unhingery soon 😘
