Why do bar stools get higher and chairs get lower the older you get ?

Correct answer, We shrink! That's why. I've already lost two inches and I was short to begin with.

Hi Phil, I just pretend I am back in SE Asia, Everything is close to the floor. The drop from a barstool isn't as bad less bruising.

i have to agree with Wayric22 it's got to be old age. when i was much younger i fell off of a few bar stools and not because they were to high if you know what i mean.

If you turn the barstool upside down you can use it for a walker
