Man’s Parents’ Huge Height Difference Gets Them A Discount
A large difference in height between a couple often becomes the subject of scrutiny. However, for one man in Singapore, his parents’ huge height difference ended up being a reward for the family.
Thanks to it, they were able to enjoy an equally huge discount at Meow Barbecue at Bugis+, which is offering promos depending on diners’ height differences.

TikTok user @ryantanss988 or Ryan decided to pay a visit, bringing along his parents whose heights clearly differ significantly.
@ryantanss988 If only got 50% discount haha #fyp #meowbbqsg
The huge difference eventually earned the family a 40% discount on their meal.
Family earns 40% discount thanks to parents’ huge height difference
The way the promo works, according to Meow Barbecue’s Facebook reel, is that staff will measure customers’ height difference to determine the discount they can enjoy.
Stepping up to the plate, the TikTok video shows Ryan’s parents standing back to back for the measurement.
His father is so tall that he towers over his mother, practically blocking her from the camera.

An employee then carries over a measuring chart with a cat head on top, tiptoeing in an attempt to measure the couple’s height difference. Due to Ryan’s father’s towering height, the staff member appears to struggle for a while.

Once the employee manages to reach the top of Ryan’s father’s head, however, his ruler indicates that the couple’s height difference is at least 50cm.
