@Johan185 But 178 cm isn't that far off 180 cm. If your talking about under 175 cm then I would agree yeah. In Germany average height is at least 177-178 cm and at most 181-182 cm according to most studies.

----------------

From what I saw its around 178 cm. From my perspective thats a difference. 7 cm is very noticeable unlike in The Netherlands where alot of men are 182-183 cm. Thats not a real difference unless you actually measure with someone up close.

Ofc our perception is tied to our own heights, to me someone who is 181-182 cm is not short and neither is someone 188-189 cm tall. Its the same if i was to stand near a 192 cm guy, you would notice I am shorter, he would notice and I would notice.

And looking at heights measured in 5'10" countries , 6'1 is 88% percentile. Thats tall no doubt.

Hey everyone! Just curious if anyone here has experienced any height loss near their mid 20s? Ever since graduating from high school several years ago, I noticed that I'm not the same height as I was then. I'll admit that I'm not as physically active as I was back in high school. My posture isn't all that great either and I do experience some back pain from time to time, but I feel like it's not right or normal to lose height early. I told my doctor about it once and I wasn't satisfied with him basically brushing it off saying I shouldn't worry about it. I definitely feel and look a little bit shorter based on my own measurements over the years. I know we experience height loss as we age, but it definitely doesn't boost my confidence knowing I shrunk in height this early. When I put a lot of thought into it, it can honestly be somewhat depressing and even frustrating at times. Thanks in advance.

@Jdubbbz

Look, I know littlelee quite unjustifiably "started" it (for admittedly incomprehensible reasons) but chill out a bit. You're allowed to say whatever you want, but I frankly can't see anything constructive about basically roasting the guy and toying with his insecurities, especially as you clearly are aware of them

I would say he "deserved" it if it wasn't for the fact that you've, on multiple occassions, outright claimed that being tall is a desired trait. In other words you're smearing the guy's lack of desired traits in his face for... basically calling you tall? Something which you consider a positive trait? Pardon my confusion I guess

I think he is 181.5-182 cm.

@Rob will you consider adding Fedor?

Average male height in North America is 173-176 cm.

Hi Rob,
I’ve measured myself for the first time since around near the start of the year, and after being awake for 6 hours and having been out in the garden mowing the grass and stuff I measured right after and I’m 185.5cm?! I’m 25, 26 next month. do you think it could be because I haven’t reached my low or maybe improvement in my posture? As around January I was holding 185cm for the whole day, just a bit confused lol.

Dimplesncheeks5feet3 said on 1/Jun/23
I'm 5feet3. I'm not sure why,but often I get attitudes from people who are shorter than me at grocery stores. I'm talking like under 5feet tall. It really bothers me that someone who is shorter than me,acts like they can throw me across a grocery store. I am the same height as one of my favorite actors,Joe Pesci. If only I had the witty comebacks he has in films. Being as this just happened I wanted to post it.

Jawilder said on 1/Jun/23
@ Adrian 6'0.9" I’d check this video out man. The guy even claims 6 foot himself 🤷🏼‍♂️.

Click Here

He’s max 6 feet. But I could give him that. Better chance a little under the mark than over.

5'10.25" said on 1/Jun/23
@Johan185 I agree yeah, 6'1"/185 cm in the Netherlands would feel exactly how a 5'11"/180 cm would feel in most European countries who average 177-178 cm; upper average range or 60-70th percentile.

5'10.25" said on 1/Jun/23
@adrian 6'2" is not significantly taller than 6'0" lol, he isn't 5'9" or less.

Whatcaniclaim, to me strong 6'0 your low is over 6'0 still like 6'0 1/8-6'0.25.

Jdubbz said on 31/May/23
@Whatcaniclaim:

I think strong is defined as being around a quarter inch above a height at your low, so 60.25/183.5cm. You're basically right there, so I think you'd qualify as a strong 6 footer

Jdubbz said on 31/May/23
@littlelee1985:

Who the heck is this guy 😂? I swear you trolls are just popping out of thin air at this point. I'm sorry you're 5'6 - I can't imagine being a foot shorter than I am. You're 37 or 38 and that short while (I'm assuming) living in a western country? That's gotta suck. My dad is around 5'6 too, but he's over 60 years old and grew up in poverty in a 3rd world country. He was 5'7 at his peak and would have been much taller than that if he grew up like I did. What's your excuse?

Anyways, you're a foot shorter than me. Maybe more (given how insecure you are, I'm betting you're claiming morning height). That means you're at my shoulder level. Not my chin, my shoulder level. How does that make you feel? Angry? I'm not sure why you're lashing out at me when I've never even interacted with you before. Do you just have a bone to pick with tall guys?

You should seriously consider therapy. There is obviously a lot of pent up rage in that little body of yours, and you should find healthier ways to release it than by acting like a child on the internet. Envy is a terrible trait - be a better person than that.

Johan, so at almost 6'1 you feel pretty average in Netherlands? Makes sense since apparently the average man there is 184cm

-----------

I think its the 5'11" guy experience in most other western countries. Above average but not tall yes. 183 cm seems to be the avg excluding the elderly.

Adrian 6'0.9" said on 31/May/23
@Jawilder There is a video of Cbum being measured to determine his weight cap for the most recent Olympia. From 17:40 of the video below, you can see him get on the stadiometer. The operator says “ 6’2 “. A few seconds later you can hear someone quietly say, “ Just under 6’2 “. Then he immediately gets on the scale and he can be seen to be barefoot. Admittedly, it’s not exactly clear whether or not he had shoes on for the measurement, but if not, it would appear that he’s significantly taller than the 6’ max you pegged him at. Even if he had slides, I’d say he’s still easily in weak 6’1 territory.

Whatcaniclaim? said on 30/May/23
What would you class as a strong 6 footer which height range? I’m 185cm in the morning and about 183.4cm evening. Walk around 183.7-184cm during the day

Progking185 said on 30/May/23
@Rapha yeah as Rob said it is solid tall, especially around 188/6'2. Here in Canada for guys its like 3.5-4.5 inches over average which is not standout but still pretty tall. You will be called tall at that height, where a few cm shorter at 183-185 range is more start of tall range not as noticeable.

Andrew K said on 30/May/23
Hey Rob,

I get up at 174 cm (5’8.5) and get down to 172.3-172.3 cm at night (5’7.75). Would I be considered a solid 5’8? Or weak 5’8?

littlelee1985 said on 30/May/23
Jdubbs I'm a five six inch man. Does that make you feel big knowing I'd be below your chin? Sad that your tall height is probably your only redeeming quality. And I certainly wouldn't be under your shoulders if both barefoot. Just below your chin not below your shoulders unless you like a pair of heels

I’ve been watching a lot of chess lately. I wonder what you guys think of Magnus Carlsen? I’d peg him around 5’10 at first glance. Maybe 179. Just a rough first impression

Sandy Cowell said on 30/May/23
@ Alex and Johan - If I went to the Netherlands for a proper visit, I reckon the men would look like trees in a forest! I travelled through the entire country by train as an under-10 with my Mum in order to get to Germany, looking out of the window all the time. There were windmills dotted about everywhere and I saw a few people wearing clogs.

Cheers you trees! 🇳🇱🌷

Jawilder said on 29/May/23
@ Gian 181cm Wrong. Cbum is 6 feet max. 5’11.75 is a good height for him tho I can see the full 6 feet sometimes.

5'10.25" said on 29/May/23
@Alex 6'0 It's not 184 cm and it was never measured at 184 cm. Some studies say 183 cm range, some 181 cm.

@Bobby & Jdubbz: The blatant dishonesty bugs. Jdubbz said that 5'5 women seemed short TO HIM, and I said that 5'2 women likely were seen as tallish IN SOME REGIONS OF CENTRAL AMERICA AND SOUTHEAST ASIA. The white knights are just as irritating. It's not a big deal by itself, but it's illustrative of things, in the real world, that are.

5'10.25" said on 27/May/23
@Emil I tend to think northernes are taller and similar genetically to the dutch/danes, southeners are shorter and genetically similar to austrians. But from my experience the average in the south is 178 cm and in the north 181 cm, I've been to Germany two times.

@ Johan

That sounds about right for the taller countries like Netherlands. The height calculator I use says the exact average there is 5'11 and 1/3. That means the average man is almost a weak 6 ft. That would feel really funny to visit when you live somewhere where the average guy is 5'8.

Where my height of strong 187 would be around top 94% in the USA, I'd imagine it would be somewhere around 75% in the tallest countries. 70% at the worst, in busy places I could likely feel only slightly above average at times.

Sorry, what? You thought I was “disrespecting” women in my comments? Literally the worst thing I said to Charline was that she was acting like a little girl, yet you glossed over the fact that she insulted half the female gender numerous times? Just because I’m a guy?

I understand you made a mistake here, but you should seriously read an exchange (instead of skimming it) before jumping in, otherwise you just look like an absolute fool.


Okay, but there's also no need for name calling mate. I was trying to be apologetic there, you didn't really need the last phrase there. I was aware of the insulting things that Charline was saying about women under 5'2, but maybe I was a bit too quick to address you personally based on my misunderstanding and should've also acknowledged what Charline was saying as well. Again, my apologies.

Emil said on 27/May/23
@MaskDeMasque 5'9.5

5'11 isn't uncommon for young women in Scandinavia, but it's still around the 95% percentile. 6 foot is pretty much 2 SD above average, and +6'2 is 3 SD.

I live in Copenhagen and I see 1-2 women who are my height or a little taller than me almost daily - at midday I'm usually 6'0.25-6'0.5"

@5'10.25

185 cm is also upper average range in Northern Germany, at least if you go to the bigger cities like Hamburg. Same goes for most cities in Denmark.

I get the impression that Johan 185 cm went to a holiday resort that didn't encompass many young people. I could be wrong though

Johan 185 cm said on 27/May/23
@ Jdubbz

6'9" being more extreme in the Netherlands is correct. People dont think it through, 6'1" is just above average here thats how I feel in my country. You need to be 189 cm so 6'2.5" to be tall here. Very tall is perhaps 6'5" range. The lowest I could think for extreme height is 6'8" range but solid like 204-205cm.

Johan 185 cm said on 27/May/23

@Johan 185 cm

185 cm is a pretty normal height in Germany, it sounds strange that you felt tall there.
And you're making it sound like 6'7" is a normal height. Even in the Netherlands it's extremely tall lol.

-----------------

Normal ? yes I wouldnt say its very tall but according to many Germans they are just as tall as Dutch people. Which is nonsense, walking around in Eindhoven most men are within 3cm of me . In Germany there were plenty of men who I would class as under average or short in my own country. 5'10" is very common there seems the avg height of most men. That is under average in the netherlands by 2 inches. Its the equivalent of 5'7.5" in the US.

The Netherlands is a small country, you will see not just very tall people here daily but giants in cities.

6'7 is the equivalent of 6'5 in most western countries here. Not an extreme height but borderline.

@Tallish guy

Rob has a video on his YouTube channel where he measures himself with different objects and compares how they stack up to the stadiometer.

Emil said on 27/May/23
@Jdubzz

Haha maybe I was exaggerating. It depends on how you define "extremely tall" I guess - in the Netherlands, it's probably slightly above the 99% percentile, so still not super rare. But it definitely stands out. So would you, dude 😄.

6'9 is probably where it gets really rare though, as you pointed out. That's also bloody insane lol

Jdubbz said on 26/May/23
@Charline:

5’5 or 5’2, you’re still under my shoulders. That’s all I care about. To me, you and a 5’2 woman register as equally short, unless I’m really paying attention. Does this make you angry? 5’5 is not all that sweetie. Compared to the average person, you’re still short.

why are you so agitated and salty for these superficial and useless topics? we are just talking about heights.

5'10.25" said on 26/May/23
@Charline I agree, there is noticable difference between 157 cm and 165 cm. One is short, the other solid average for women. The eye level comes at the mouth area and it's a medium sized difference. It's the same difference I feel next 186 cm guys and 186 cm is low tall range for guys.

Have you heard yet that 5'5 is the National average height of many great countries for example France, Switzerland and Germany???!!! ABSOLUTELY NO ONE stares at 5'5 women thinking they're short, let alone tiny, in Europe. Have you seen the comment of @Okidoki I recommend you check it out, because he is one of the persons with the most insightful mind from all the people that write here, he clearly wrote that in general 5'5 is the Average Female Height in Europe, while not excluding 5'6 being quite close, and 5'4.5, and also 5'6.5 and 5'7 not being far from it. And now talking about 3 inches height difference, While a 7 cm or 8 cm height difference isn’t absolutely huge, such measurements do represent a medium to large height difference that’s definitely noticeable to pretty much everyone. Anyone with half a brain can see that.

You think 6’7 is extremely tall in the Netherlands? Interesting. I see it as the start of extremely tall in the US and other Western countries with a 5’9-10 average, but the Netherlands beats that by a couple of inches. I would have assumed extremely tall starts at 206cm at least in such a tall country, but of course I don’t live there.

Very well said, Gian. I agree 100%. Too many people seem to think that an opinion makes them magically immune to criticism. Especially when that opinion is outlandish and controversial. It’s like a “get out of jail free” card for ignorant people.

I haven't been deeply entrenched in CelebHeights politics in a while, but from my brief examination of your comments, you have simply been advocates for shorter-statured women by stating that they aren't childlike or childish.

How anyone could misconstrue this defies reason.

Bobby said on 25/May/23
@5'10.25"

I didn't claim intellectual superiority. I simply said Charline must have reading comprehension problems because neither Jdubbz nor Poster said anything remotely insulting. They have been advocates of smaller-statured women by saying that they aren't childish.

How anyone could misread that is truly beyond me. Honestly, now, do you have a bone to pick with me all of a sudden, buddy? What did I do to wrong you?

@Charline

Lass, your English is atrocious. I am bilingual myself as Greek was my native tongue, I learned English later during K-12.

It's incredible how you disregard that Poster is a woman and instead attack me because I stipulated that your reading comprehension is wanting. That's not the same as intelligence, FYI. Alas, I am prone to believe that you are either a troll or a belligerent, banal simpleton. Which is it? Don't hurt yourself while you reach for your dictionary, either.

I have amicable correspondence with Jdubbz and Poster, and so I will come to their defence. This will be my final correspondence with you. Good day, little lady. ;)

I would give 6ft 1/2 - 6ft1 for CBUM. I'll explain.

He has measured several times in bodybuilding championships at this point, and was probably dehydrated (technique to look more defined).

He beat Ramon Dino (Brazilian bodybuilder) who measured about 180.5cm - 181cm by 3-4cm (look for pictures of both).

He's very famous, Rob, he definitely deserves a page here.
I would recommend putting it before Mr.Olypia 2023.

@Bobby & Jdubbz: The "troll theory" sounds right. I doubt VERY much that it's just a comprehension or language issue. Some people just enjoy it when they insult other people for no discernible reasons whatsoever. It's a shame. :(

@adrianjacobs Thank you, they are quite tall then- seems like a lot would be same height as me or taller, even those not in heels then! Maybe those in heels would be quite a lot taller in fact, maybe this take a few way over 6ft! (I thought I was relatively tall compared to most girls, even in heels, but maybe not!)

@Johan Average height in Germany is 178-180 cm depending on demographic and in the Netherlands 181-183 cm. So hardly a big difference.

----------

Avg height in the west of Germany ( where i was) is nowhere near 180 cm. Its 178 cm as I was comfortably taller than most men in a city center. And I am talking about young men.

Dutch avg is 182 range overall but nearer 183 cm when you take away the elderly.

Men being 2-3 cm shorter is a big difference than 7 cm !!.

@5'7: Why are you coming down on Jdubbz? He's not the one who's insulting and offensive. You just give a pass to the person who says cruel things about petite women. I don't understand the reasoning of individuals in 2023!

No, it's just I didn't realize you were a woman as well, which is why I made the mistake of assuming you were a guy attempting to put down Charline's irrational comments by disrespecting her as a woman. That's why I said what I said, because I thought Jdubbz was condoning that kind of behaviour. My bad.
Of course I don't condone calling woman under 5'2 "childish."

@Bobby
It could have been a misunderstanding but I didn't see any offense in the comments by @Jdubbz and @Poster and English is not my first language , and both were victims of ad hominem.

The problem is that people think opinion is a magical jargon that lets you say anything, it's like an argument with no premise and just a conclusion, and so you conclude absolutely whatever you want.

Don't get me wrong @Charline, but having conviction about something through opinion is one of the most harmful things you can do to yourself.

185 cm is a pretty normal height in Germany, it sounds strange that you felt tall there.
And you're making it sound like 6'7" is a normal height. Even in the Netherlands it's extremely tall lol.

I meant that for young ethnic Danish men, 6'0/183 cm is around the 60% percentile. Overall the 50% percentile for young men all ethnicities included is probably around 180 cm
-

If 183/6’0 is around or about the 60th percentile amongst young danish dudes, then it means the 50th percentile should be 181-181.5 at most.

And the overall young population is around 180 cm, yeah. Maybe at worst case scenario 178.5 cm. But around 180 cm like (179-180 cm range) at most.

@Bobby Don't talk stupid things. I mentioned at the beginning that I live in USA. From where do those crazy things come from? It is obvious it is clear that you are missing an organ. The absence of the main organ-brain, judging by your stupid post you clearly do not have it. My English is excellent'cause my dad is an American, while my mom is French. And in addition to English, I speak French, the classiest language in the world, which I doubt you will ever know.  Who the h*ll are you to talk about the intelligence of someone?! Poster is nothing more than Malefactor ( together with Jdubzz). They are the most ignorant people of all who write here. As the intelligence of the human race remain at the mercy of Poster, as we know has such a "brilliant brain", that has also invented the newest theory that "5'2 women are tallish" Come on. It's driving me up the wall.

It's an odd trend to observe, but it is true. If it's not your intelligence, they usually attack your integrity because they have nothing else to sustain their drivel.

I briefly examined Charline's syntax and it is clear that their first language is not English. I am tempted to conclude that this is a misunderstanding borne out of an insufficient grasp of the English language, but I don't know.

I would say that this forum generates an IQ well below average, however. It's still better than it has been since Gsuave was banned, though. If you are familiar with him, that is. Nevertheless, I still think you're one of the more mature and intelligent posters on here.

@Poster and @Jdubzz You both are the rudest people here on celebheights.com. I noticed that you have absolutely no respect for female gender. It's obvious that your mentality is primitive and maybe patriarchal. You both have only your obsession defending 5'2 as a height like it was the most divine thing on this earth. Defending your obsession you both are able to say every kind of insult. With this behaviour you both are showing your lack of integrity. I personally only showed my point of view as how I see a certain height, because this is a height site discussion where we can comment and say our opinion of how we perceive different human heights. That is my RIGHT. And is also your right if you disagree and think the contrary. But what I absolutely don't accept is the total lack of respect and integrity from both of you. Shame on both of you calling an adult woman "little girl".

I'm from Tuzla, Bosnia.

Btw, just yesterday and night before we had beer fests in downtown, it was pretty crowded, one in four was over 6'2, couple were shorter than 5'10' shortest probably about 5'7 and tallest up to 6'7, majority being 5'11 to 6'2. I blent in fairly well at between 6' and 6'1. On couple of occasions i was towered by group of dudes. Later last night i went to local night club again it was mostly filled with 18 to 22 yo's i felt somewhat on shortish side. Only fewer were head shorter. Many girls were up to 5'11 in heels.

-In that case, people who to clubs in Sweden where I live might even be taller. I think at least 1 in 3 are easily 6'2+ here and not a few girls are 6'1 without heels.

5'10.25" said on 22/May/23
@Ipa I believe that. Some averages in Bosnia for men can go up as high as 183-184 cm though it's only 181.2 cm for the whole country. I was there a couple of years back and I felt lower average (30th percentile) but not short.

Johan 185 cm said on 22/May/23
I went on holiday to Oberhausen in Germany. Expected it to be similar to my home The Netherlands. Wasn't close. Average man in Germany looks to be 5'10 range -178 cm. Also far less extreme heights in the city. I think the tallest guy i saw was 6'7". Germany seems to be similar to Belgium.

Arrived home and immediately felt average again, always funny to go abroad and instantly become tall.

Sam83 said on 22/May/23
@Ipa that’s interesting to know you felt on shortish side around 6’-6’1- Im 5’11, so assume would definitely been on the shorter side then! Would you say quite a few girls would have been taller than this with heels, say 6ft or over?
I guess many are therefore fairly tall already, or were just in high shoes maybe- although would be interesting to know the average and tallest heights when in heels!

@AdrianJacobs:

Ok, I'll stop if you do. As far as calling you 6'0.5, I honestly thought that was your height. If you said otherwise sorry, I've been skimming comments lately. I thought you were over 6' and under 6'1.

As far as 5'2 not being a great height for women, I don't think it's as simple as thinking it's equivalent to 5'7 for a guy and not good because of that. In some ways, being short as a woman is a good thing. Shortness is usually seen as a more feminine trait, so they have they going for them.

Height in general isn't that big of a big deal as far as female attractiveness goes. Not the case for dudes.

If you don't want to be called a little girl, don't act like one. At 5'5, you're not even that much taller than people you claim are "womanlets" who look childlike. From my POV, 5'5 and 5'2 women look more or less equally tiny. If you're getting offended then I'm sorry, but you can't post a radical take like "5'2 women look like children" and not expect and resistance. It's just not a common opinion at all.

Also, I know we are talking about 5'2-women. That's the equivalent of a man who is roughly 5'7, so 5'2 is most definitely very short even for a woman. It's pretty hard for me to see how it's a "great" height.

My shoes add little or no height. Her friend who is 5’7.5 will wear the same and her partner is 6’3. I’m now thinking i may be the shortest in the group and not sure how noticeable this will be in comparison!
Just wondered if anyone experienced this change in peoples height, if someone wears a really high pair all of a sudden, either going out or for work etc!

The heck does me being a bit uncomfortable (not "absolutely can't stand") around taller men have to do with this? Especially when that happens once in several months? The subject is whether 5'2 women look childlike or not, which I obviously disagree with. How am I "defending short heights?"

Context matters. Like Poster said, are you being willfully dishonest or are you just that out of it? 5'2 for a woman is not the same thing as 5'2 for a man. We're talking about women here. 5'2 is an objectively bad height for a man, so I'd never virtue signal to a 5'2 guy and tell him his height is wonderful. 5'2 for a woman is a great height. Short women don't have the same issues in life as short men.

We respect your RIGHT to have whatever opinion you want. No one is disputing that. Just because you're entitled to your opinion doesn't mean we have to respect that opinion, especially when it's so illogical. There are such things as dumb opinions. For example, thinking the Earth is 6000 years old and flat is a dumb opinion. Nobody here except you seems to think that 5'2 women look childlike, because that makes no sense.

As I said before, there is SO MUCH MORE that goes into looking childlike than height. Would you say a well endowed (you know what I mean) 50 year old 5'2 woman with an hourglass figure and mature looking face looks childish? No, because that makes no sense.

On another note, in the area where I live, there is a large immigrant population, and at the mosque I go to, I always see a consistent amount of 193cm+ middle eastern and south Asian people. It small amount, 4-5, but it is evident that south asians were being held back by nutrition, as these are all second gen people. The tallest we have is I think 195cm.

And I'm not saying something untrue at all, because there are some countries in Europe (but I won't say where exactly) where I heard that people avoid marrying short women because they don't want short offspring. My female friend which is from Europe and lives here in US has told me that. There 5'2 women aren't absolutely considered marriage material.
So both of you don't continue to repeat the same and the same, that they look "absolutely normal" and bla bla bla in your ridiculous opinion. Because they DO "resemble children" like it or not, detest it or not. Oh and also yeah I would like to add that besides children, they do resemble 65 year old grandmas ( which poor of them they lose height from their advanced age) too. Sorry, not sorry.

6 ft is pretty average in Scandinavia at least for young guys. It's 60% percentile territory or so

@5'10.25 Well, if we're going to analyse deeply every person on this earth, has some kind of issue, including you, so don't try to offend me, okay? Absolutely no one is without any preoccupation. And as you said we all have our preferences so neither @Jdubzz nor @Poster can make me change my opinion, because my perception doesn't change because I'm not a fool to not notice that 5'2 women look quite short and also is true that almost all the cases I have known , almost all men who have breed with 5'2 women have had sons no taller than max. 5'9 and many times even no taller than 5'6 in the more extreme cases where 5'2 women came from a short family, and considering that children inherit very much in many cases uncles (mother's brothers) genes, it's very obvious and nothing to be surprised of that they didn't grew taller than 5'6 range.

Bobby said on 18/May/23
@Poster

I tend to think he's just not very bright and has selective reading comprehension. This is the same guy who claims he feels short at 6ft, especially when the average male height in Sweden is less than 6ft. No country in Europe has an average of 6ft for males. Altogether, your average European male is at least 5'10.

5'10.25" said on 18/May/23
@Abdul It's 179 cm overral population, 180 cm ethnic swedes, 181 cm young ethnic Swedes. Add 1 cm to the height during the day. There are more immigrants in Sweden than in most euro countries, but it doesn't have a big impact on height since: 1. some immigrants are tall (although a few times less than ethnic scandinavians), 2. some immigrant ethnicities that live in large numbers in Sweden are tall as well (serbians, bosnians) and 3. the immigrant population of Sweden is still relatively low (14.4 %).

5'10.25" said on 18/May/23
@Emil Yeah you're probably 65th-70th percentile in Denmark and 70-75th percentile in Slovenia. Upper average range but not tall (185 cm + low height).

5'6 average in Netherlands and Bosnia? You're literally pulling averages out of your ass and you call me not too bright? I guess a truly bright person guesstimates the averages like you do, and then doesn't get it right either.

It's literally measured at 5'7.5 in Bosnia and 5'7 in the Netherlands. 5'2 could easily be described as childish there, and I'm sure it would be described as childish in most European countries because it's simply rare to see adult women that short.

I could imagine there's a significant height difference between income groups in the US due to the country's high inequality.

The times I've been to US airports I haven't felt much taller compared to how I feel in Denmark, but I'd assume it's the wealthier Americans you'd spot there. However, when I walked in the streets of NYC or LA I felt I was standing out quite a bit. Maybe because these cities are very ethnically diverse too.

I could imagine

Charline said on 17/May/23
@Poster The fact that you may have a preference for 5'2 women doesn't allow you to get to such extent to call 5'2 women tallish, because we all know really well that even Chinese and Indians don't consider, absolutely never, 5'2 women "tallish", that's totally the most absurd thing someone has wrote on celebheights.com. In some countries of the world like Japan, Mexico and Latin countries in general, China, India and some other Asian countries if we say that 5'4 or 5'5 is considered tallish, then yes it's true, but "5'2"?! Come on,please!!! Have you lost your mind?

5'2 is a common womens height. People look at it as short because 5'2 generally speaking is pretty short but for women its technically just below average. Id say 5'0 or below is legitimately short for women and can start to become child like.

Poster said on 16/May/23
It's absolutely ridiculous to say that 5'2 women look like children! I doubt that anyone would say such a thing in Bosnia or the Netherlands, and 5'6" might be the average height there.

@186cm:

People like you and I defy the stereotypes. I am not sure how tall you'll end up, but I was exactly your height at 15 and ended up at 199cm. My male cousins in the US aren't as tall as me, but the shortest is 5'10 and the tallest is around 6'1. Above average even by American standards. Genetically, I believe that South Asians can be quite tall. It's just malnutrition that has held us back. I've seen many South Asian families where the parents are not tall at all and the children who grew up in the West end up as much as a foot taller (or even more). That is what happened to me as well.

Henrik said on 16/May/23
@186cm

Well, I did know an Indian (a Muslim, if it matters) who was ~6ft 6 and his brother was maybe ~6ft 2, and a Syrian refugee (a Christian) I once worked with was 6ft 2 or 3 range, and a Lebanese Muslim who was ~6ft 3.

But in all honesty, I think I've seen a lot more Middle Eastern people in Sweden who were 5ft 7 to 9 range than 6ft 1 to 3 range. It does not feel very common to see tall people from there.

Alex 6'0 said on 15/May/23

@Jdubbz
Yes, many people assume that south Asians and middle eastern people are just plain short, you’ll never see someone tall of this ethnicity etc but that is not the case. When we grown up in a proper environment we can turn out quite tall. I myself am of South Asian decent, and having recently turned 15, I am 187cm in the morning. My uncle who grew up in a good environment turned out to be 194cm. And all my other cousins who grew up in America/Canada after their parents immigrated have all turned out to 6’+. Even though our previous generation was not that tall. My projected height is also quite high, but we’ll see about that.

@John185 I've just decided to see previous comments here today from another posters and  your comment where you replied to another poster caught my eye. Just Wow! I couldn't agree more. Reading your comment the beautiful model Victoria Silvstedt came to my mind, because she is the exact height as your ex-girlfriend and she truly looks special with her height and can easily give a 6'0 impression.


@John185 said on 18/Mar/23
I understand your logic, but I disagree to some extent. I previously dated a woman that was 5'10.5/5'10.75 and trust me her height was special. She looked very noticeably tall compared to other women and even a substantial amount of men. (Granted her slim figure may have given the illusion of being closer to 6'0.)
I have seen women of similar stature here in the UK, but she had a rare height for sure.
Broadly speaking in Europe I would say 179cm is the starting point of a special/rare height for a woman.

So I wouldn't be inclined to put 5'10.5 in the same category as 5'8, because the latter is not uncommon, despite still being a great height in my opinion.


John I have too the same opinion. Thinking in the European metric system 179 is the only "7" which can compete with 180+ women, is the only which is clearly quite strong. I definitely too wouldn't put 5'10.5 in the same category with 5'8 or even with 5'9.5 or with either flat or a strong 5'10.
Things really change at solid 5'10.5 or 5'10.75.

Charline said on 14/May/23
@ Okidoki Not only people who post here but also in the real life, here in US are soo many people who think the same about them.
Not only 5'2, but also 5'1, 5'0 and so on.
Like 90% of women that are under 5'3 are terribly insecure.
@5'10.25 From what I know is the contrary Central and Northern Swedes tend to be taller and prettier than Southern ( Northern ones are kind and empathic) When I visited Stockholm for example I've seen prettier and taller women, contrary to Malmö, where they were mostly 5'6 and quite average looking frankly speaking. Victoria Silvstedt is Northern Swedish, many people know and like her,including my friends, who think that she's absolutely gorgeous. I also think that she is very pretty and quite tall at around 5'11, which is a rare height in Southern Sweden for women in general.

5'10 Abdul said on 14/May/23

@Charline I'd say Swedes average more or less 5'11" or 180-180.5 cm range. 178 cm or 5'10" in the north (strong Lappid influence) and 5'11.5" in the south (strong nordid/cromagnid influence).

Overall average in Sweden including all age groups and all ethnic groups should more be like 177-179.5 cm.

Been to a local night club in friday, felt averagish to slightly bellow avg because every 4th guy was almost head taller and only fewer were a bit shorter than me which happens half of time. I was probably 184cm-ish at time during night but i also wore shoes that give 3cm boost. Most youth were probably younger than me by 4+ years. Im 1996 btw.

I'd say tall starts at 6'0"-6'4", depending in which country you live in Europe ( 10 cm over the 50th percentile or 90th). Some average only 5'8" while some 6'0", most 5'9" and 5'10" range. Probably 6'4" in the Netherlands, 6'3" in Sweden/Germany and western balkan countries, 6'2" in the UK or Poland, 6'1" in Italy, 6'0" in Albania.

@ Arvedtall

Damn dude, really sorry to hear of all the problems. The irregular heartbeat can be harmless in some cases, but the nerve damage is pretty bad especially if it's from your spine degenerating. Can any amount of stretching or posture correct anything at this stage? Hopefully you are consulting an expert in the field perhaps they can slow it down.

In the meantime try to make the best you can out of your life. Keep in mind Richard Kiel was 7'2 and he lived to 75. So hopefully you'll live a reasonable good long life regardless of what challenges the height has thrown your way. Wishing you the absolute best dude!

Darksol64 said on 13/May/23
@WhatcanIclaim

Rob would list you on his website at 6'0.25 more than likely. The most honest claim is a normal bedtime low, which in your case sounds around 6'0 and 1/8th.

Obviously trying to tell someone that in person as your height sounds ridiculous and makes you look silly, so you have two options:

Claim 6'1, nobody will bat and eye and question it. May or may not think you're 6'2 depending on if you're lanky or not and proportions.

Claim 6'0, and expect some people to be surprised and say there's no way you're only 6'0. Unless you have an extremely wide/heavy weight frame, people may think you're 5'11 or something then.

adrianjacobs said on 13/May/23
@Jdubbz
1. I'm 6'0 5/8-6'0.75 in the evening, not 6'0.5.
2. You being insecure at 6'3 in America is a pretty different thing from me being insecure at this in Sweden. That would be the equivalent of me being insecure about being "too short" at 6'5 in Sweden. It seems like the main reason you were insecure about it was because a few people were still taller than you and you were not the absolute tallest person everywhere you went. Literally the only reason you got over it was because you grew taller and not because you became another person mentally.
Imagine being me and being shorter than the majority of men, shorter than a large amount of women, and also NOT reaching the height I was projected to end up at.
3. I don't understand why these people have the right to say that I say outlandish things and have a deluted height perception if they underestimated my height by nearly three inches.

@arvedtall:

Sorry that happened to you, but I know guys even taller than me (I'm 6'6-6'7) who are much older than you with no major health problems to speak of. Certainly nothing that you mentioned. I don't have any either, but then again I'm only 25. Some of the problems you mentioned like irregular heartbeat (particularly arrythmias) are more common in very tall people, but the others don't sound related to your height at all and are indicative of a much more serious health problem.

I truly hope you get relief from those conditions as they sound very painful, but blaming it all on being 6'8 is a bit ridiculous.

Emil said on 13/May/23
Just measured myself at 11 am (3 hours out of bed) and I'm 184 cm on the nose. Amongst young ethnic Danish guys I think that's around the 60-65% percentile, so slightly above average - including all ethnicities I'm a bit closer to the 70% percentile, but not quite there I'd say.

I do see women my height or slightly taller (185-186 cm) almost daily. Women around 187-190 cm aren't that rare either, but any taller than that is a really uncommon sight. The average height for young ethnic Danish women is 169-170 cm, for men it's around 181-182 - all ethnicities included, I think it's 167-168 cm for women and 180-181 cm for guys. If you account for daily height shrinkage, you could probably subtract 1-1.5 cm from those numbers.

Keep in mind that I live in Copenhagen so I pass by thousands of people daily, so, there's obviously a higher chance for me to spot both very tall and very short people than you would in smaller places.

Okidoki said on 12/May/23
@Charline There was a female poster named Mariana not long ago who also said that 5'2 women were insecure in her opinion.

As for the perfect height, this is often subjective, so it's not really easy to say-

But from watching what they say in the media in general, for women, it's often said that between 5'7-5'9 is a great height. For men, it's often said that between 6'-6'2 is a great height.

You can also see how preferences vary here on the board too. We have 2 posters, James B 172 cm and MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 who for example like or prefer women taller than them.

Then you have Jdubbz who is around 6'6.5, who prefer women around 5'2 for example.

It's often subjective, some people like short women, average height women or tall women, it depends.

There is a stereotype which you see sometimes in the media, that shorter men like taller women or taller men like shorter women. The reasons cited then are that shorter men need taller women to produce offspring that will give a greater height or vice versa, that taller men need shorter women for some biological reasons.

Reasons for the attraction are also cited as that opposites attract or that you like what you don't have etc.

Okidoki said on 12/May/23
@adrianjacobs Yes, are you going to show us some long legs there, invite them out, i'll buy the beers :P Rockaway is curious too, he hasn't seen a lot of 6'2 women lately.

Well, i think i judge it well in my opinion, i haven't made a mistake more than 2 cm when in person, and have often guessed within a cm the real height. But yes, when watching pictures, movies etc it's more difficult to guess the right height i guess.

Charline said on 12/May/23
@Jdubbz Maybe is the contrary, maybe I am the ONE who made a 5'2 woman's MAN realise what a real woman looks like and what a real feminine intelligence is, and also what a fresh younger prettier woman looks like, and most importantly what a down to earth female is like compared to the pampered older shorter woman. Maybe she is the one whose life is now hell because of this real feminine force. Because I don't have nothing what to envy at 5'2 womanlet height at all. So please don't try arguing with me for things you have no idea for what is happening. You don't have the slightest idea what kind of a ty and unworthy person compared to me she is.

arvedtall said on 12/May/23
For those who glorify extreme tallness I can present my "health chart" as a 6'8'' person:

up to age 34: no diagnosed health problems

age 35: venous insufficiency diagnosed in the legs
age 36: osteoarthritis in the hip joints
age 39: degenerative scoliosis
age 40: osteoarthritis in the knee joints
age 41: nerve damages due to degenerative processes in the spine
age 41: irregular heartbeat

I can understand any young guy who admires tallness, but if you think about the long term consequences in terms of health you maybe see it differently.

@Jdubbz: You and I both know that it's a ridiculous comment. It would make more sense if she would claim that about 4'11" women, in their twenties, who aren't well endowed. It's still insulting to them, though. It's safe to say that Charline, if "she's" not a troll, has issues.

I feel above/average tallish, but quickly and easily not feel tall. I can go from being tallest in group to one of the shortest quite easily.

Almost never see a woman taller than me. In general feels like a solid height.

Any idea on the Documentary maker Morgan Spurlock,Rob? The super size me guy. Claims 6'2 but looks more 186-187cm range to me.

In general the perfection height range for female gender is min.solid 5'3 and max. solid 5'5. Height wise USA has healthier female average height than European countries and also than Asian countries ( excluding South Korea) who are quite short on average at 5'0-5'2, USA wins because the exact average female height that World Health Organization has confirmed a typical 5'4 (everyone can type and find it in google) so considering 5'4 is considered medically average height of fully grown females, it means 5'3-5'5 is the ideal feminine height.

@ROB would a 168-9cm person be up to the mouth area of 189cm person?

@Charline not childlike lol, I just don't find those women at those height ranges particuraly attractive, that's it.

Charline said on 11/May/23
@ Henrik Yes, you are right, because even though many immigrants who grow there, grow tall as well, even I have heard of a late teenager girl that grew an inch when she moved to Sweden, after stopping growing at 14, she continued the growing process for a whole one inch again after 3-4 years she stopped growing. I think that happened because of the quality air and water, and also food in stores is extremely controlled in Sweden, they don't dare to keep unhealthy foods in supermarkets. But with all those qualities, it's true that immigrants have weaker genetic in general, so yes it's much more common for example to see a 5'11 ethnic swedish woman than 5'11 foreigner one.

Also, what's funny Adrian is that I brought that up (wanting to be taller at 6'3) because I was supporting YOUR ARGUMENT when you claimed that 6'4 isn't very tall in Sweden, which I still agree with. I only brought that up to defend you, and now you're using that against me? Do you realize how scummy that is? I hope you don't do that to people IRL, because that's not exactly how you make friends.

@AdrianJacobs:

And yes, every time you bring up how short you feel at 6'0.5 in Sweden, you are implying that you wish you were taller. Are you pretending otherwise? You are obviously extremely insecure about your height, and anyone can see it. At least I'm not pretending I wasn't. The more you deny it, the more obvious it is.

Henrik said on 11/May/23
Still, having said that, the Egyptian-origin YouTuber Mohammed Hijab is 6ft 6-7, so there certainly are some tall Middle Eastern people.

@AdrianJacobs:

Yes, I said 6'4-5 guys in particular not because there are a ton of them walking around in the US, but because that was my minimum predicted height. They're also very easy to notice when you're 6'3.

So what? I never said I wasn't insecure about my height at one point. Why are you bringing that up out of nowhere? People are ripping on you not because you're insecure about your height (let's face it, most people here are or have been at one point), but because you're starting to say outlandish things and are being very passive aggressive as of late. Why the hostility? I actually defended you a while back and now you're lashing out at me?

@Charline:

Wtf? Did a 5'2 woman steal your boyfriend or something? Why do you hate 5'2 women so much? You seem to be projecting a lot in your comments, and I am curious why.

@5'10.25"
Yeah an inch isn't much and 6'1 is kinda
tall.

Henrik said on 11/May/23
I think that, generally, ethnic Swedes are taller than those of immigrant background. I'm sure that the children of immigrants grow taller than their parents and averages of their home countries, but there is a still a difference that is attributed to genetic factors.

^^ Basically those who have a lot of "Yamnaya" admixture (which is associated with modern-day ethnic Northern Europeans) are more likely to be tall.

This article (paywall) below claims that the Swedish average has shrunk from 5ft 11 (men born in 1956) to 5ft 10 in 2016. It also states that men born in 1990 measured 181.7cm...

I measure in the morning, an hour out of bed , a tad over 1.82m or 1.822m(5'11 and 3/4).On a different day ,I measured 1.815m (5'11.5)at 18:30 in the evening, after having gone to sleep at 00:30 and woken up at 8:15, run at the gym for 30-35 minutes and driven a car 30-40 minutes each time,then when do I precisely hit 1.82m on the dot? Thanks in advance.

@Jdubbz
Lol, I just found this quote by you from 12th of March this year:
"I also really didn't enjoy seeing guys on my campus who were taller than me. It got to the point that I was actually insecure about being "only" 6'3, which I know sounds ridiculous."

And this one as well from the same day:
"I still felt a little insecure about my height until I hit 6'4-5 or 194-195cm. I guess at 6'3 I was tall but still saw a decent number of guys taller than me."

It's totally noticeable how you were insecure about your height only because you didn't grow as tall you were supposed to be, like you said today.

Charline said on 11/May/23
@Poster @Jdubbz You both can try to defend how much you want 5'2 women, but you can't deny the fact that they are height conscious all the time, are terribly insecure, wear high heels even in second trimester of pregnancy and even buy their child 5-8 year son athletes with lifts ( that shows how much obsessive they are). Neither of you can tell me anything about them, because I have seen such women many times and they are TERRIBLY INSECURE. Even a fool can notice that they look clearly SHORT.

adrianjacobs said on 11/May/23
I'm going to ask once again, since no one seems to have answered. Given that many of you have a more accurate height perception than me like you say, why did you all underestimate how tall I am?
I uploaded a video to prove my height, so you can't just blame me for thinking that I'm taller than I am.
