Looking back to the original trilogy, it’s wonder any of the performers in Stormtrooper armour managed to put one foot in front of the other, given the very limited field of vision the helmets allowed. Anthony Daniels basically looked through two pinpricks, while other performers looked through their noses (literally) and remembering his days as a whitecap on the set of A New Hope, Mark Hamill confirms that one of the most natural, throwaway lines in the entire film was an ad lib that George Lucas decided to keep in.
I guess that’s what you get for being a little short for a Stormtrooper.
