"For Taylor, who had aspirations of winning the contest after finishing as the runner-up here in 2006, placing outside the top three was a disappointment. He had guaranteed a win leading up to the contest while dismissing Samuel's chances to win, referring to Samuel as an "ankle biter" in the process, a reference to the 10-inch height difference between the 6-foot-4 Taylor and the 5-foot-6 Samuel. And, although Samuel won the show, he lived up to the description by playfully lifting the legs of each member of the top five during the posdedown and pretending to bite each on an ankle."
