Looks like there’s some lying going on, lol

Just use centimeters, Jesus.
What about the apostles?
I remember a post by OKCupid noticing the same phenomenon at 179 cm countries that use metric.

Just using this data to show how stupidly wealth is currently distributed in the country assuming 5’11" or 1.8 meters average if we converted this into 2022 wealth values with average income of 61,136, top 1% as 785,968 (12.9x), and 0.1% 2.8 million (458x) the top 1% height would be 23.22 meters and 0.1% would be 824.4 meters tall.
I’m pretty high and I can’t make an ounce of sense of what you’re on about
This is a nicely symmetric bell curve but a similar wealth distribution graph will show a miles long tail
Naturally occurring normal numeric distributions will tend towards a bell shape, or curve, as you acquire observations. Artificial distributions like income will follow a different curve that is sometimes difficult to visualize especially when the differences are measured in millions or billions. It’s easier to visualize the differences in artificial distributions if you use a natural distribution as a familiar basis.
Tl;Dr Do you think Paul Bunyan and Paul Blart are related?
Only if they both know who took Karl
As someone closer to 6’1" usually, I just go with 6’ because it’s easier. It’s funny that both ends of 6’ seem to just report 6’. The shorter side seems more likely to do this, obviously, but I think there’s a lot of people like me who just choose the slightly easier option too. I’d be curious if you got the same anomaly if multiple foot markers were within the majority of the normal distribution.
I’m 5’12"
That’s what my six foot tall mother used to say.
I used to say I was 5’ 15". The number of times people would say “no way, your at least 6 feet” or something similar is amazing.
6’1" is also lower than the other side of the curve, which suggests people just like to round up or down to 6’.
If I had that one inch I’d own it
I bet 6’1" is accurate, if the mean of the curve was where it’s supposed to be instead of at 5’10"
It actually makes a lot of sense, to me anyway, why the left portion would be more heavily weighted.
6’-0” and up is pretty rare as far as the world goes. 6’-5” is kinda the ceiling for humans barring some exceptions and there are plenty of reasons to stop growing on the way to it while there isn’t really any way to grow bigger.
6’6" checking in. Not often I see someone taller than me :-)
I bet, but even I think that and I’m much shorter. Most of my life I’ve phrased it as I’m taller than average but not tall. But people seem to be shrinking faster than I am: it really seems like I’m taller than more and more people as time goes on
‘Hmmm’ material
I don’t measure myself in steps
I’m 5’11" without shoes and I can’t imagine why anyone would lie about that lol like why wouldn’t you just say your 6’ tall at that point if you’re lying anyway?
I’m 5’11"and I like to say “I’m 6’ when I wear my heelys.” People aren’t ready for it. They especially aren’t ready when I actually heely away.
So most men are 5-9 and 5-11 adjusted for lying.
