Poll: how tall are you?

[IamQ]

I'm about 182cm and 17. I doubt that I'll get any taller with time, but I don't mind.

 

[Amazon warrior]

I'm a whisker under 6'. Pretty tall for a girl, I tower over my mum and sister (both around 5'7").

 

[lunam-kardas]

5'6, I'm sort of short compared to a ton of people where I live. My cousin is 6'2

 

[Redingold]

I'm 5 foot 10, which is a pretty average height and also doesn't fit on your rather ill-designed poll.

 

[Insanityblues]

5'6. I'm the eldest in my family, yet both my younger brothers are taller than me (5'10 and 6'1). Also my dad is 6'2, so yeah..... I guess that when it comes to genetics, I picked the shortest straw
It actually doesn't bother me anymore, what I'm really sensitive about are my tiny hands (seriously, I have the hands of a ten year old) I live in France though, so nobody makes stupid Burger king jokes at me.

 

[an_luas]

Your not really "above average" (180-190cm) if over half the people are in that category! That is average!

 

[Dango]

I'm about 5'7, fortunately I'm still growing a bit since I'd say 5'7 is a bit below average.

 

[Julianking93]

184cm or 6'1

Not... really tall seeing as most people in my town tend to tower over me but that's also due to the high German, Swedish and Dutch population here.

Oh and I just turned 18

 

[Count Igor]

About 6ft.
I'd be happy about that, but my Girlfriend is like 5ft 8/9" so I tower over her..

 

[ZehMadScientist]

183 cm, Dutch male, age 17. I still feel kind of short between all the giants in this country. Damn my part South American roots...!

 

[The Heik]

I'm roughly 5 foot 11
180cm
age 14

not the scary part
no the scary part is theres another kid at basketball whos roughly 220 cm and hes only 13

I'm 6 feet tall (183 cm)
Age 20 1/2

Evidently I'm above average, but seriously, 150cm is the average? I know this is all relative but my god people are short! This must be what Space Marines feel like when walking around!

 

[karloss01]

6.4 foot. i got long legs, makes it hard to ride buses with the no leg room.

 

[Daffy F]

I'm 6'3", or about 193cm I think? That or somewhere in between.

 

[Kadoodle]

I'm around 5 ft 10.

/satisfied.

Also, couldn't do the poll because we Americans are dumb twats who don't understand metric units.

 

[Zaverexus]

176.5 cm (5' 9.5")
A bit shorter than most of my guy friends, but taller than the lady friends.
My younger brother is actually taller than I am, but I am stronger so I don't much care.
I'm fine with my height, though I wouldn't mind being a bit taller.

 

[meowchef]

6'4"

By far the tallest person in my family tree.

 

[Biosophilogical]

6'4''.
I tower over the small people, but don't bump my head on the doorframe.
Also, your poll needs real measurements, not this silly communist measuring system.

It would have been nice to have both sets of measurements, but I personally appreciate the metric system being used. I mean, we don't actually use it much here, so we tend to guesstimate more than anything else when using the imperial system. So, for example, I'm about 182cm tall (give or take), so guessing my imperial height, we go 30cm = 1 foot, therefore I am 6 foot and almost 1 inch. But an inch is actually 2.54cm, which throws it off, bumping me down to 5 foot almost-12 inches or a flat 6 foot.

But we predominantly measure using the metric system, so for things like height, we have conversion errors unless we go out of our way to find and imperial measuring stick (isn't it a little strange that Australia, a commonwealth country, uses the metric system, while America, the self-proclaiming republic, uses imperial measurements?).

 

[skcseth]

177.8 cm or 5'10" for us US'ins (not in the poll btw so I just clicked 180 - 190 above average).

 

[MrMixelPixel]

5'6 or like... around 160 cm.

I'm as tall as Mello. From Death Note xP

When I wear my platform boots I'm like 5'8 though...

 

[Kunzer]

68.5 Inches tall.

No, I will not waste my time converting my height into metric.

I do wish that we all had the same measurement system, though.
