Excellent! I hadn't considered the voice tone. A trick I use, when standing still, is place my weight on one foot and hardly touch the floor/ground with the other. Somehow I rise quite a bit.
thats because of natural concave curve of a foot on the inside
Also you're shifting the set of your hips, so it's the highest point that is now holding you up.
This is true I can confirm
I’m 5’11” and some people think I’m 5’10” while others think I’m 6’0” or 6’1”. Nobody ever perceives me as my real height :(
My morning height is 5`8 1/2 barefoot and most of the day I`m around 5`8 barefoot. But I claim my height using my height in shoes which is 5`9 and nobody notices that.
I'm 6'0 (184 in the morning, 182 at night), and people guess anything from 5'10 to 6'1. Definitely not a fan when folks undershoot my real height haha.
@@connorgannon1153 as soon as u get out of bed measure urself cuss I lose 3 cm I’m 187-184 people always say I look 6”2 even though i lose throughout the day my average height is 186.00 with shoes that’s 190.00 as I wear 4 cm shoes if u was 184.00 average height u could claim 6”1 but it has to be ur height 3-5 hours out of bed
@@MrAscension_ same here 6,1
yeah personally 5'10.5, 5'11 does not exist. i automatically label that as 6 XD
Weight and fitness has a large effect on height. To use myself as an example, I was 188-189cm at school no matter how I stood.... but I was out of shape the older I got at school. So I was 6'2.5 really. In my twenties I put on more weight and was 187cm. However, in my thirties I got much fitter and stood much taller to reach a solid 190cm. I am 42 now and coz my back was killing me I took up cycling and stretching. I am now 191.5 no word of a lie. So I have ended up nearly 6 foot 4 lol. Posture and fitness make so much difference. Strengthen your core with cycling and swimming and watch yourself stretch out. The back pain has mostly gone now too. It will take at least 2-3 separate cycling sessions a week though
Great explanation to weight and fitness
I'm 5'8 but people think I'm 5'10 maybe cuz I'm skinny
I'm 6'3.2"
Some people think i'm 6'7"
But i realize some people don't want me to be tall
Like i had a class mate who said i can't be 6'3", at most i'm 5'10"
I was like wtf
He is 5'8"
He measured me and found me 6'3" lol
he is jealous obviously, trying to make you feel badly about yourself because he is insecure
Some people look shorter than they really are.
Guys: let’s be honest, most people lie about their height by 1-2 inches. (Mostly cuz of posture, footwear, and hair) This proves that 6 foot barefoot plus is quite RARE in society
Who cares?
@@jakemuler6952 I do, like i actually do
Well, I am a true 6 footer. (184cm middle of the day) and I feel above average for sure but not super tall either. There is a lot of people taller than me in my college. I still get dwarfed by 6'4-6'6 guys. But 6'0 is still tallish. Taller than the majority.
(I live in North america)
The true range of tall start at minimum 6'1 barefoot for me in USA.
@@jakemuler6952 You're in a height community bozo. If you don't care why are you here
15-20% of men are 6ft+ in the US, it’s not rare. But it’s not as common as society is making it nowadays
This is really a well-versed perspective and demonstrates your keen research and knowledge in this area. I have long been fascinated with the fact that I have rarely seen a celebrity (Actor, Sports, TV personality, Politician etc) that matched my own preconceived notion of their stature? In fact, in my time, I have seen hundreds of these folks and I haven't really been able to figure out why this phenomenon constantly occurs. Well, I think you have nailed it - in that - "perceived height" has many variables as opposed to "real height" which only has one (correct measurement). It really is fascinating how much "human height" matters with regards to our judgements of people and their attitudes towards themselves. Somewhat arrogantly, I know that I am right about this because of the simple fact that I cannot think of anyone who has ever stated their height to be lower than it actually was?
Height fluctuates much more than weight.
Especially due to gravity.
height fluctuates a little bit: true.
But weight always changes more.
No it doesn't weight fluctuates more than height.
What you said about voice and presents is also very true, at least to me, at almost 6'1, even the popular guys that range from 5'9-6'0, that have a bigger presents or even deeper voices are seen as bigger or taller because of that, i know this because of how people are surprised when I'm around them and the other person whos shorter than me (but still pretty tall) when they realize how tall i am compared to the other people with a bigger presents and deeper voices, vs. Me being very timid and more quiet.
You could work on it, if you see yourself as a famous character or actor who has the presence you require you become more like them. Especially if you think in their voice.
As I type this I am reading it in Sean Bean's voice for example. The only downside is I keep calling people bastards and getting into sword fights with French Officers.
This is an interesting topic. I stand 6'1 without my shoes on. Even when I wear my logger boots I still claim 6'1 because I am comfortable with my hight. But because of the fact I have long hair, loud voice, and the way I dress they assume I am like 6'4 which as much as I'd wish to be true it is not I am a comfortable 6'1.
I don't know about the voice thing. I have seen 5'3 guys who have super deep voices
Michael Shoemar its called on average... doesn’t mean someone shorter can’t have a deeper voice. It’s just the chances are...
Its about neck lenght.Shorter people likely to have short necks but not always. Short neck means short larynx
JD Sumner was 6'5", london parris was 6'5", Thurl Ravenscroft was 6'5", Tim Foust is 6'3", Barry White was like 6'3", Johnny Cash was 6'2", peter steele is like 6'6", josh turner is like 6'1", and Trace Adkins is 6'6". the only average height natural bass singers i can think of are tim storms, avi kaplan and mikhail zlatopolski, who even then are like 5'10" or 5'11". there are some bass-baritones that are in the 5'7" range like bing crosby but its difficult to find anyone with a true bass voice under 5'10". the only one i can think of is the 5'6" harry shearer.
I'm always perceived to be taller than I really am (5' 7" but people think 5' 9" or higher). I thought this was due to my enormous head, which I've measured and if proportionate to the rest of my body I should be 6' 2"! However, what Rob says about voice and personality makes sense now. I'm certainly loud, outgoing, and have a deeper voice than most men.
Head maybe. But also being a true 5’7. As a 6’0 guy, true 5’7’s are actually not short to me, nor do they look very small around me. It’s just that I know a lot of people that claim 5’7 that are clearly closer to 5’4, and hence peoples idea of 5’7 is distorted.
I’m 5’9” but somehow some people think I’m 6ft tall. They tell me I look pretty tall, but that’s just because I have a skinny profile
Im 6'1.5 in shoes and generally about 6'0.5 barefoot during the day. If I were to get a full night's sleep after going to bed at a reasonable hour I'd probably wake up a 6'1, but sleep schedule plays a big part, since it's so inconsistent I'm thinking I wake up shorter than I should be. I had a nurse measure me at 6'2 before so that's what I claim, it's accurate for the most part. My standing posture is nearly at attention most moments, so I'm honest with my height. I've stood next to people that are 6'4 and because of my large frame, big hands and feet, along with my reach I match up pretty well.
Wait. So you're 6'0.5" barefoot and somehow still 6'2"?
6'1.5 in shoes and 6'0.5 measured but also measured 6'2? what's happening here?
I'm 5'10.5 in the morning,probably flat 5'10 afternoon.I have a good posture too,most people that are shorter than me think i'm 5'11-6'0.
I’m 5’10.5 in the morning 5’10 1/4 afternoon 5’10 flat evening & 5’9 1/4-5’9.5 night. People think I’m 6ft🤣😂 because I have long legs, long neck, long arms & I have a small face but my head is pretty long. But I also wear hats & thick shoes.
Im 6’2, but in my country is very hard to find that height even a 5’10, 5’11 person is considered tall and even very tall above 5’11 , the average height in my country is 5’6, 5’7, so i look like a 6’4 guy, and people always tell me that i’m 190 cm (6’3), or above but i’m not, maybe when i get 21, im going to be 6’3, short people or the mainly people always inflate their heights, a friend of mine is barely 5’8 and he claims 5’11, tall people are always asked about their heights, and that’s very annoying. Can you please ask me about something else pls?
I met a fellow who from far away, walked and moved like a very tall man, he stood straight up and never slouched- his height was 5' 5" and when I got close to him, I was looking down at a very short, small framed fellow who probably weighed 8.9 stones....however, he moved like a tall fellow and he is forever tall in my mind- it is all about confidence and using what you got to it's upmost limits.
On the contrary, very tall men will often have lousy posture because of looking down all the time. Shorter guys often have good posture, whether it's to look taller or just because they're overall confident.
Well it’s hard to tell someone’s height from far away. He probably just had tall proportions for his height and good posture
Unrelated to this video, I want to say that I know a couple of people who are lying about their height. There's one who claims to be 5'7 when he is clearly 5'4 at most standing next to 5'11.25 me. Then there's another one whose I.D says he is 182cm or 5'11.75. He is about 4cm shorter than me, so he is 177cm. Then there are several 170 - 173cm people who claim 5'9. Should I just claim to be 6'2 from now on or what !? Because this is getting really ridiculous.
Bobby Papoutsis i feel like people need to use reason, im 6'0 barefoot, 6'1 with shoes....but in the a.m im 6'1 barefoot 6'2 with shoes. so its fair to say 6'1 imo in my case
you think thats bad, me and my mate used to make fun of a really short gur in our class, and he once claimed hes 5 foot 7, we laughed so hard, im 5,9 and when i stood next to him he was up to my shoulder guessing hes around 4,11, the thing is 95% of people add at least 2 inches to their height
I used to claim 5’9 even 5’10 myself when I’m 172cm but it’s only because I never thought I overestimated my growth and I had a massive afro. I just claim 5’8 now because that’s what I used to claim when I was 15
There is a sort of height inflation it seems. Leading people to have to claim to be taller than they are.
When talking about it seriously I state what I am (5'9") but I have probably lied before now. As a Goth I often wear tall boots so claiming I am 5'11" is easily done.
I am 6'3 but my family are adamant I am taller than my uncle, who is 6'5, who needs to duck under some doorways. I don't understand it, I am 100% 191cm. Even he thinks that I am taller too
I definitely need to lose weight...while i'm not overweight....i find my frame to be consistently wider than people my height making me seem shorter
Robert Wadlow was a quiet man so I guess he didn’t really leave much of an impression 😅
Im 5'10"-11" range... my shoulders are very wide and i have a 46" chest, 16" arms .. i has no idea about my height before.. i once asked a lady who is barely 5 foot...... how tall u think iam . she replied u r 5' 6"
She’s a dumb ass
people can be really bad at guessing height, especially those who aren't into this kind of things. liek for instance, i'm over 170 cm, but the relatives of mine guess me at 168-169 cm, even though i can put even 5'7 ish guy on my forehead level, which is almost 3 inch taller than 5'7. So don't bother it at all because you already know the truth
No way
I fraud my height from 175cm to 182cm. (No, not through lying) I know people smaller than me who claim a greater height than mine. I never realized how ridiculous this shit is before this year. People maybe 8-10cm taller than me claiming to be 195cm+. I have encountered this multiple times.
Honestly I don't care about "real" height anymore. What does it matter if I claim something I am not and am still smaller than the guy/girl? What matters is perceived height or the height you fake. I had girls asking me for my height a couple of times already and it's funny that I can get away with lying even though I am not a fan of it. It's usually girls around the same height as me. F.e. once she was 173cm (I am 175cm) but with perfect posture and big sole shoes I literally towered her and could easily kiss the top her forehead.
I use shoes nowadays with thick soles and insoles that boost me up by atleast 5cm. Only problem is when I am in a social gathering and need to take them off. That's a true killer haha..
What happen in a social gathering that you have to take off your shoes?
The voice thing Is probably wrong, im 5'7 and my voice is really deep (16 yo) and my 6'1 friend has a girls voice (he a guy)
I am 185.3~185.4cm in the morning and 183.3~183.4cm in the evening
With my shoes on I am 187~188cm
i'm 6'3.5 and people think i'm around 6'5-6'7 and it gets annoying when people ask me if i play basketball
Do you have broader frame??
At just under 5ft11 and having a 51 inch chest and 19 inch neck people are usually suprised when im taller than them
I am 176cm or 5'9, but because I have long legs and shorter torso and good posture, people always perceive me as being around 178 (5'10)
im 175 range night, 177 in morning, i have longer legs for my height and wear 32 inseam pants, mid to full break, my posture is kinda bad and im overweight so im perceived shorter. People guessed my height from 5 foot 6 to 5 foot 11, some people are just stupid and cant guess correctly
@@willsgaming1481 the last part of your sentence is absolutely correct. People do not have a clue about heights.
@@willsgaming1481 bro start going to gym i was fat too I lost 57 pounds last year and I have a six pack It will really change your life

@@willsgaming1481 do some kind of strength training and focus on your diet
I'm only 5'9" (176cm) but I get taken for around 6ft.
Oddly my build is one of a taller person, bar my squat but tree trunk like upper legs. So maybe if they were longer I would be about that.
I do have a lower voice and a very direct and commanding manner though so that probably helps. People see me as a take charge sort of man, a man of action and intent.
Shoes definitely are a point too, as we all wear them. It probably throws off how tall we think a height is, barefoot I would likely look a short arse despite not being one.
People think I’m 5’7 at 5’9 because I’m skinny you might be 5’10 almost 5’11 just with poor posture that makes you measure just under 5’10.
No matter how straight and confident that 5’8 guy is to me he’s still short lol
I am 1,76-1,77m. People estimated me between 1,73- 1,82m. A lot of them thought that I am taller but thats because nearly everybody is lying about height.
@No Bias thats crazy how short they pegged you. Yes in shoes Im around 179/180. But in the last time a lot of the girls I met told me that Im pretty short. I dont think I am. But it hurts a little when you hear that.
I’m 172.5cm (5’8”) but ppl have guessed me at being as short as 158cm (5’2”) and as tall as maybe 176-177cm (5’9.25-5’9.75”). The ppl who think I’m slightly taller I can understand that but it’s all a bit baffling as to why people think I’m so short. It honestly is crazy and I often feel so degraded coz I don’t know if people just see me at that coz of my build. I think nowadays a lot of people are height blind.
Hi Rob Paul
I want buy a height measurement please. From Michael Cummins
What is my true height? My morning, afternoon, or nighttime height?
I am 1.75 and 16 years old, but as I have a very low voice and a wide neck, people think I have 1.79, sometimes even more than that
I'm 1.82 and people always assume I'm in the 1.85-1.88 range idk why haha
@@lebronjahames5100 because everyone lies about their height I’m 184 in the morning and about 183 at night and people think I’m 188.
Rob If you have impeccable posture like Brad Pitt and your 5"8 barefoot can you give the perception of being a 5"10 guy with excellent posture of course. I'am curious Brad Pitt is 5"11 and his friend Clooney always describes him as a 6"1er so does the 2 inch rule of height apply in these circumstances?
Clooney says Pitt is 6'1 so Clooney will seem like he's 5'11 while he's actually 5'9.
Yeah. And Clooney looks 2’ shorter than brad.
Im 5'7 in the morning; where boots and 3/4th of a inch lifts and people think I'm 5'10 (have good posture)
I actually didnt know you had a term for this, i always called it "social height", like the fact that i have measured myself at 184 cm but because of physical characteristics i (based on what other people have said) come off as 6'1-6'2.
i usually walk around at about 6'4 in shoes (6'3.6 without) and people often think i'm 6'4.5-6'5
When you get over 190+ cm in shoes, you can basically get away with claiming anything between 6'3 - 6'5 in my experience.
i'm foot 5 foot 9 and girls shorter than me always think i'm 5 foot 11 o almost 6 feet
im 5'8 barefoot but my classmates think im 5'6 cause i have a high voice
your accent is interesting. where are you from?
How a long neck would affect your perceived height?
It will make their shoulder height seem lower than others (of comparable height), which could effect how others view you...but then I've seen some ladies with longer necks and smaller heads which have appeared taller as a result!
I've been called tall a few times even though I'm 5'9 at 16 :)
Mogs me
People say im like 5'6 but I'm only 5'3
I’m 17 standing at 5’8 but people think I’m 5’5-5’6 when at 16 I was measured 5’7 1/2 at 16, what factors could lead to this possibility of people thinking I’m generous?
Muscle,the way you carry yourself;your shoes etc.
Carefree King of Heaven I normally have quite a poor posture plus I claim my barefoot height and I hardly wear slim fit clothing, I wear thick soles to make me taller. I do the odd stretching exercise here and there.
Glenn The Braintree same bro i’m 5’9 but people think i’m shorter but that’s mostly bc im skinny
minecraft creeper but like smaller in body wise :(
Well I am quite moderately stocky so that might be a reason why
I'm 5'11&1/2", but most people think I'm 6'1", because all the 5'10" guys pretend they're "about" 6'.
Yea I’m 6’1 and I’ve literally just finished growing. And most people think I’m 6’2 lol
Hi Rob, Like I said I am 192cm, but if I got a tape measure and measured from the ground to my eye, would that be 182cm?
Reuben Searl on average yeah...most people have 10cm eyelevel...mine is 12cm so I think I’m shorter than I actually am!
I have an 8 cm eye level lmao
10cm is pretty small for a male eyelevel especially for that height. Typical 192cm eyelevels are around 12.5cm
I'm 6'0 but most people guess that I'm 6'2-6'3
I’m a bit over 6’0 and most people guess me at 6’1. Few times 6’3. The highest and most ridiculous guess was 6’5 by my uncle in law ahaha. He must’ve thought he was 6’ when he’s 5’7.
Only 1 person guessed me accurately at 6 foot flat which is what I measure around at night before bed
Hi Rob, I am 192cm and when I am around people who are two inches shorter than me 187cm, I dont feel much taller, sometimes I feel like they are taller or the same height than me at times, but when I am around people who are two inches taller than me 197cm, I feel way shorter. Why is that?
@@RobPaul ah right, thanks.
Depends where you're standing ground is never even and it has a lot to do with your posture too. I feel the same way too and I'm 190 cm

Those stadiometres are a wast of time. My height is 5' 11" 06mm. And one measured me at 5' 10" 07mm. And another at 6' 0" 02mm and another at 5' 11" 01mm. There just total bollocks. And there being made by different companys, so they will be using different measuring tapes, why should they care its only a height chart, No big deal. Theres no other way to make them. I did it myself in the house and got it bang on. As when i was age 16 i got measured for suit and the man said do you want your height taken, we do it the right way were you stand against the wall. And i was 5' 10" i thought it was taller than that. Then at age 17 and a half a was in his shop again being measured for a suit. And he said want you height taken? I said yes and was 5' 11" 006mm, he said you might not grow above age 18, i see it every day in here. But i knew you were taller as soon as i saw you. Even an inch and half shows alot. Thats ok your almost 6ft. I went back in at age 21 and i wasnt any taller, he was right. And i measured myself the way he did and it was the same height. I did it to see if you grow above age 18. I didnt. But i dont know any that have.
I'm 6'1, 16M, but people think I'm 6' lol. I'm pretty skinny too idk why
But if your'e skinny, you should look taller and slender actually
I’m 6’2 but a lot of people think I’m 6’3.
It's because it's tall anyway. So at this range of height, an inch doesn't make a big difference.
I am 5,2 , I feel soo short
6ft and people think i'm 6'2.
Haha same
Yes this true i am 6 ft :D
Cause most people lie about their height,hence when I was 6 foot people thought I was 6 foot 1
Im 6 ppl think Im 6'1

Wear a uniform. I had a uniform required public safety job and to a person all my wife's friends remarked how much taller I looked in uniform.
5 ft 11 1/2 here but that doesn’t go well with bulletproof do I just say 6 feet
If you want, or about 6ft
If ur 5’11 ½ by afternoon or later. Then 6ft is fine. A ½ inch difference is pretty hard to notice in public.
I measured myself standing backwards & measure at 5’7 1/4 but when I stand forward & measure myself I’m 5’8 even.
which one should one claim?
Yeah I measure backwards 6’1” 3/8 but forwards at 6’1” 7/8. I usually say 6’1” 1/2 or 6’1”-6’2” when people ask

I have seen many people on past claming being taller than reality, but nowadays i have seeing the oposite: dudes that are clearly modests about their own heights. I saw, for example, two guys that undoubtuble had at least 2,05m, claming 2,00m. A very very tall girl claming 1,87m when in reality had at least 1,91m, and a ton of 1,95m guys that clams 1,90m.
Girls normally under bill their height to make a lot of men look like dwarves or ants, it’s embarrassing how girls do it. I know girls who claim 5’7 when they’re 5’9+
@minecraft creeper yeah nah only coz I’m 5’8 and I get girls who claim 5’8 but tend to stand 2+ inches taller than me. I’m not gonna lie I used to claim 5’10-5’11 in shoes, but that’s because I was only counting my Afro as well that I had. Since going back to the short hair I’ve said 5’8 ever since. Then I get girls who are completely height blind and claim that I’m so much shorter it actually hurts.
It's because when you're very tall, you don't care so much about your height. You know that you're tall already.

I feel that same thing ur description is literally me lol u could get away with saying ur 6’1 and most will think ur at least that
Is that your height barefoot or In shoes
I’m 5’10 barefoot but I always think I’m shorter for some reason everyone I come across is at least 6ft
@@massacrematt4613 I'm 5'11.75" barefoot. In shoes I'm guessing I'm 6' (in chucks) or 6'1" (in nikes)
@@massacrematt4613 Maybe you have tall friends? Where do you live? 5'10" is upper average most places. If you live in a place where the average is 5'9" you can expect 30% of guys to be taller than you. That could explain it, I guess. I feel like I kind of get you. In small gatherings and stuff like that I usually feel tall, but when I'm in a big crowd I feel pretty average.
Just turned 16 and 1.82, am I able to get like 6'2?
Ako Akko You'll probs be a 185 guy
Ako Akko. Yes, even to 6'3
Vegeta Are you 185 in the morning,afternoon or at night?
Nah my brother is 13 and 182 cms he will be 190 i guess
It also depends on your parents if youre dad is like 6'0 or over its surely possible to hit your target
All I really want to do is growing taller, neither having more perceived height nor a better posture😂
Who doesn't ?
@@lucasalmirdossantosfernand3710 most people irl don't give a shit lmao
save for a LLS thats your best bet good luck!
@minecraft creeper right. It depends. but for those its really an issue and go through an unbearable psychological hell which may last a whole lifetime, 2 years is a good invesment.
@minecraft creeper exactly theres one case about a dude from colombia i think (but latino) that felt so terrible about his height he went to russia and went through all that
I'm 177 cm so what am I 5 ft 9 ?
Just over 5ft 9.5
@@RobPaul ayyy the big man himself replied 🙏
It’s actually 5ft9 and half so you could claim that you’re directly 5ft10 since it’s not that noticeable the difference
I’m 5’9 people think I’m 5’3
Rob Paul thanks for answering rob the 🐐
Same here I’m 5’8 thereabouts but people think I’m 5’5-5’6.5
How that is a huge difference
That’s like me 5’10 barefoot guessed at 6’4
Those people must be very tall or blind
I'm 6'3 barefoot and people think I'm 6'5 to 6'7 😂
Yea, Im 5’11 3/4 at night and a little over 6 foot in the morning and people think I’m 6’1 or 6’2
@@benromeromontoya9493 a lady asked me at work yesterday if I was a 7 footer 😂
i'm 6'3 barefoot and people think i'm around 6'5-6'7 too lol, also when someone hasn't seen me for a while they ask me if i grew more when in reality i've been 6'3 since i was 16
@@soulexee me to haha I'm 19 now havnt grown since 17 and people still say that I've grown since last time I saw them and I saw them like half a year ago
@@putbqck342 do you have broad frame??
I'm 5'10, but everyone pegs me at 6'0
@@RobPaul Yes, I'm told I have a good build and a long neck. I also have long thick blond hair, and I think. blond hair on males is associated with tallness. Thx for your reply.
I'm 5'10 but people say I'm shorter haha
@@Buenon_ Could be your posture
I’m 5’10 3/4 when I stand up straight but I have a terrible habit of slouching so people think I’m 5’10 flat.
@@Buenon_ u decide not them
Bruh I'm 6 4.75 but people always perceive me as 6'2 or 6'3 sometimes because of my broad structure
maybe your width plays a part in it, assuming you feel your posture is ok and you don't have a very low eyelevel
Weird. My height is around 6'3 barefoot, yet me being built very broadly (broad shoulders, big hands etc), makes my perceived height closer to 6'4-6'5 to most people.
Might be due to being wide and having a long big head with shorter legs
I am 6'3 all people tell me you are so tall idk that's tall but not giant
You’re very tall. In the 99 percentile.
Hahah yeah I feel the same way sometimes.
At 5'9 1/2 ,6'3 looks very tall to me.I know a guy who's 5'11 barefoot,but because he has very broad shoulders,thick arms,thick neck and deep voice,he appears to be around a little over 6'0. Other guys who r fat or skinny fat,lower muscle tone,(hence lower Testrone)etc.Tpically appear one or two inches shorter than they really are.
Im over 6'2 190 cm I believe between 6'1-6'4 isn't a giant just very tall. I would consider giant around 6'9-7 foot plus and super tall between 6'5-6'8
@@landrymark2367 it's more like 97-98% percentile in USA. But still way taller than average.
