Dunkin Donuts

QuoteA Dunkin' customer has revealed the surprising reason why some stores have height charts on the door.

Earlier this month, a TikTok user named Jocelyn, who goes by the username @officialjuice93, posted a video from inside a Dunkin' location.

In the clip, Jocelyn wrote: "Tell me your Dunkin has been robbed with out [sic] telling me they've been robbed... I'll go first."

The video then pans over to the entrance of the store, where there are lines with height markers up the side of the door.

Those height markers are intended to help employees and other witnesses gauge the height of any possible criminals, according to a 2012 report from Slate.

It's not just Dunkin Donuts who have those. I thought this was common knowledge. Maybe not.

I've seen them around here for as long as I can remember. Thought it was common knowledge.

So, what if an NBA team walks in to a DD?

"How tall was he?" "I don't know! 6'9"? 7'0"? 7'3"?"

What max height do the charts go to, btw??

They usually go to 7"feet.

After that everyone knows it was "Too Tall Jones" He Played for The Cowboys. 6'9"

As much research has shown Eyewitness accounts during a stressful events tend to be WAY off in terms of accuracy.  You ask a group of people what a person was wearing or a round-abouts of height and weight, you'll get wildly varying opinions.
