    I’m a very large person (250lb/110kg, over 6’/1.8m) and I walk almost silently, unless I’m trying to be loud. I’ve learned to make some kind of noise when approaching people from behind, because otherwise it almost guarantees a jump scare

      I call it my “stealth field.” I’ve had multiple people look directly at me, multiple times, and then jump scare when I move. I’m 6’3", and 240. The walking silently is just a bonus, though it sounds very loud to me.
