I am sure the height itself is not restrictive but not all tall people are slim and a tall fat guy may cause a problem on extricating the aircraft, weight and balance and obstruction of controls which all need to be taken into account.

He also needs to be aware of raffles entering the realms of hire and reward and thus making the flight illegal.
There was a case a few years back of such a charity flight in an R22 with a Mother and child. The flight went wrong and the PPL went to prison.
