Poll: How tall are you?

[DTWing]

6'4 - it's kind of funny, because I want to go to Japan & learned Japanese because I like manga and anime, but don't like being stared at or ogled so going to Asia seems more problematic than it's worth.

 

[Westaway]

Your poll makes no sense, 6'-6'6" is a huge variation. Since 6'0 seems to be the standard height it should probably have its own option, or at least 6'1-6'2. Right now one option covers everything from average to very tall.

 

[Kopikatsu]

6'7". At least, that's what I was when I last measured myself for a license (five-ish years ago).

Being tall is kind of a curse. Hit your head on things, legs are too long to properly fit in most cars, etc.

 

[BoogieManFL]

5'7" or just barely under 5'7" depending on the time of day.

My mother is 5'2" or so, and I'd say my father is about 5'6". Most of my family is a bit short, but on the plus side all have hair into their old age. My brother somehow made 5'9" or 5'10". I guess I was too picky an eater when I was younger.

 

[Tilly]

I'm about 5'9" some 4" below average for a Dutch male.

What? The average Dutch male is 6'1"?? Can you point me to data on that. Find that very hard to believe.

They call it 6'0",but it's closer to 6'1".

Wow, really didn't know there was that much variation between countries. Haha and then you try posting the same chart based on IQ variation and people start getting a bit nervous (I think Germans come out highest, if I recall)

 

[pearcinator]

5'7"

I am a short-arse. I wish I was 5'10-6'

 

[Strazdas]

186 cm which i guess would make me slightly over 6 foot. It appears im in the majority group.

 

[JayRPG]

I am around 189cm (6'2"). I usually say 6foot2 if asked.

I'm taller than most people I meet/see, but I still wish I was taller.

 

[EeveeElectro]

Between 5'2 and 5'4 without shoosies. My usual stance is slightly hunched so I look smaller. I'm smaller than most people and have little short legs.

It sucks, I wish I was taller then maybe I would be able to see in crowds and my jeans wouldn't bunch up at the bottom.

 

[Kathinka]

4 foot 8, almost 4 9. 70-something pounds. Yes, I'm tiny, sue me.
On the downside, I need help reaching the high shelves. on the upside, it's easy for guys to lift one up and threw around. All balances out.

 

[Therumancer]

I've said before. 6' 1" tall, currently 250lbs of blubber since I've become a wreck. I'm obese but have broad shoulders and carried weight well for a long time, not so much anymore though.

 

[Trippy Turtle]

I'm dead on 6 foot.
I wish I was shorter sometimes though. Except when I'm in a crowd and I can see above most peoples heads. That's pretty fun.

 

[Leon Royce]

Motherfucking Caucasian Godzilla here.

Though a small Godzilla at 6'4" (193cm). A little too tall, especially for someone into petite women from the East. I got the "you're too tall" line quite a few times.

My tall heart hurts.

 

[KyuubiNoKitsune-Hime]

I'm just about a quarter inch taller than 5'4" tall, and weigh a wopping 130 pounds. But I like being small and short, but nice and agile and flexible.

 

[C117]

6'1", just about. Or rather, I am 185 centimeters tall. Live in Sweden, where that height is barely above the norm, but not by all that much.

 

[freaper]

About 1,90m or 6'3" for you poor colonial sods.

 

[Cowabungaa]

I'm 1.96m, or 6'4" in that nonsensical imperial system.

Or in other words, I'm "Thank God it's not 2m" tall. Because damn I'm already too tall, but I'm so glad I never got to the 2m mark. I already suffer from some back and joint problems as it is.

But I do look pretty awesome now that my posture is good and I stride with pride. Regal, almost.

 

[Ten Foot Bunny]

I'm a hair shy of 6', but it's more convenient to say that I'm 6' tall.

 

[Vicarious Reality]

Well that was surprisingly difficult to convert using google, i am 181cm
5 feet 11 1/3 inches

71 inches

I really got pissed off at the sink in my bathroom in our house, it seems like it was made for children/asians and it had two screw valves, so it was always too hot or too cold

 

[BoogieManFL]

I think the range of each option is too great to make the poll even remotely informative, sadly.

The number of people from 6' to 6'2" isn't that uncommon, but more than that is, more so with each extra inch.
