Ryan's way 
window.addEventListener('load',

  function() {
    // declare the height array here since we need it
    // inside multiple functions
    var elementHeightArray = [],
      // convert the collection into an array so we can forEach() over it
      elementArray = [].slice.call(document.querySelectorAll('.foo'));
    elementArray.forEach(function(i) {
      elementHeightArray.push(i.clientHeight);
    });
    // get the tallest height
    var maxElementHeight = Math.max.apply(Math, elementHeightArray);
    // apply that height to all elements
    elementArray.forEach(function(i) {
      i.style.height = maxElementHeight + "px";
