Tall Man Costume Idea

I have no idea if this has been done before, or that I may not do it myself in the future. BUT I was discussing costume ideas with a friend of mine who is 6'5'', and I had an idea that I thought would be cute for him. I'm posting it here, because after talking to him I gathered that he was a little bah-humbug about Halloween this year and probably wasn't going to put much effort into a costume at all, let alone one so cute.

I don't think it's Halloween in general that he scrooges (making that a verb), I think it has more to do with the annoying girl that was invited to the party his brother was hosting. You know the one; all she needs to dress up as an M&M is green underwear and chocolate syrup poured over her as she dances on her female dance partner making not-so-subtle glances around the room to make sure that all the guys are watching her.

This costume is nothing like that. I thought that my 6'5'' friend should be (drumroll) The Beanstalk! He can dress all in green, wrap some garland around his body, and then have a tiny Jack climbing his arm. He could even wear a hat made of fluff that is just one big cloud around his head.

With all that buildup, I'm feeling like that idea is not so great. No matter. That's not my costume anyway. For Halloween, I'm going to be this guy:
