One of Mario's most noticeable physical features, aside from his charming mustache and bright red overalls, is his height. Mario isn't some big and burly main protagonist who can take on anyone that steps in his way with sheer might, as he's actually pretty small and not exactly the most intimidating guy on the surface. Admittedly, though, there are many people in the Mario universe who are on the shorter side, so it almost makes it feel like the characters have all been shrunken down to make the Mushroom Kingdom look even more gigantic in scale.
