183cm.

And yes, that is a very bloody good Gaussian curve there - you can see the influence of our female members on the lower spike.

Grew nearly 18cm in one year, had the same awful pains as the guy further back, stretch marks, tendons stretched to the point of nearly snapping - very nasty.

When I started High School I was in the top 5 tallest people in the year, when I finished I was middle of the pack of 120 boys and girls. I did my growing young.
 
I a real shortass at ~172cm, 5'8'' in the old language. :(

I was ripped off genetically. By brother and sister who are both younger than me are both taller and have nice, slim, athletic builds. I on the other hand was not so fortunate in the looks department.:eek:

I got all the brains though.:p
 
6'0" but I'm still putting on the inches at 18. :p

I'm a senior about to graduate high school...freshman year I was 5' (though it came in ~3 inch spurts). Growth spurts suck, never mind the fact that you can't even dream of touching your toes or doing anything flexible, I outgrew clothes really quickly, and shoes were another story. I was a size 9 freshman year, now I'm a 12.


As for girlfriends...my girlfriend :)( until recently) was a wee bit over 5'. It took some getting used to. And some neck pain.


Edit: look at that beautiful normally distributed bell curve. Wonder what the bump is...

The 5'5''-5'6'' category is a bit of an outlier though. Gee, can't those people just be a little taller/shorter. It's most inconsiderate of them. :rolleyes: :p

That would be TWO beautifully distributed bell curves. Male and Female.

um, because people who are 4'11 might want people to believe they are 6'2 with blonde hair, blue eyes, and 98 pounds. I dunno :confused:
I fit one of the general Western ideas of beauty:rolleyes:, but my weight is about 125-130lbs. and my height is 5'6" :)
 
I'm 5' 11".

... and I weigh 195 pounds and have green eyes.



:rolleyes: Seems like a lot of threads asking about the members lately.
