      It’s part of the building code for European houses. The celling has to be atleast 5 meters taller than the tallest permanent occupant but no less than 3 metres if all permanent occupants are average height

        Is this a joke? Are tall people not allowed to buy houses with low ceilings? Does a landlord have to undergo construction when a very tall person moved into their house? Seems very unreasonable after thinking about it for a few seconds

            Wait but none of my questions have been answered. I’m genuinely curious what happens if a really tall boy tries to buy a small house. Are they blocked from buying it? Do they legally have to change it once they own it? Does the seller have to change it? This “law” seems so impractical and I’m hoping it’s just because I don’t really understand it
