Why Tall People Are Happier Than Short People?

"According to a paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research, both men and women who are above average height — 5 ft. 10 in. for males, 5 ft. 4 in. for females — report higher levels of happiness than smaller people."
And why is that? Because of education and income...
"The study found that taller people tend to have more education, and thus higher income levels, than shorter people. It follows that the smarter, richer tall people would be sunnier than their vertically challenged compatriots."
i'm guessing the tallest man in the world I once saw during a flight must be the happiest man in the world...

This is another example of weird studies that are conducted in the world.
