This Still Annoys Me
In Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indy is told that the Staff of Ra should be "six Kaddams high" -- "that's about six feet," Sullah says -- but then he should "take one Kaddam back to honor the Hebrew God whose ark this is."
And yet when he gets to the map room, the staff is at least two feet taller than him.
So, either Indiana Jones is three feet tall, or he completely botched the instructions for the Staff he was so keen on. And, like the Germans, he should be "digging in the wrong place!"
I'm just sayin'. A commenter mentioned the "Kaddam" thing for no reason, and it just started bugging me all over again.
