In many accounts they are portrayed as:
- technologically advanced

These narratives typically come from witness testimony rather than scientific evidence.

Typical features include:
- height ranging from 2 to 2.5 meters
- extremely pale or white skin
- slender body structure
- large eyes

Some witnesses claim that Tall Whites wear protective suits or garments when interacting with humans.
Charles Hall testimony
One of the most well-known stories involving Tall Whites comes from Charles Hall, a former U.S. Air Force serviceman.
