Did you knew that tallest average "white" nation in the world are Serbs. That doesn't count some tribe in Africa, thats why I wrote "white".

Thought it was the Dutch, but then I've learned something :)
 
Well, that might be one of explanations why we are good in some sports like basketball (and volleyball - were Dutch use to be our contestant, but not any more);)
 
I'm 6'1" and change, which (does mental math) should come out to about 185cm.
 
I'm a little short of the "average" range for a white male American...

5' 6" (168cm)

140 lbs (64 kg)

BMI is 22.5ish, IIRC...

My Dad's family, who are of Dutch descent, are all very tall... My Mom's side, mostly Irish, are almost all shorter than me.

5' 11' (you find out how many cm) ;)

Since an inch is 2.54 cm, and the difference in your height and mine is two inches, and my height in metric units is 185cm, then you must be 180cm tall in metric units.
 
180 cm -> 5,9 ft
95 kg -> 209 lbs
BMI = 30.9

But I think I am in good shape :) my weigth is because the traditional Portuguese food that have many rice, potatos and fruits :)

And I dont eat nothing of junk food and dont smoke, so I will live longer and and will be ealthier :)

Even if I change my location I would try to have Portuguese food, cant live without this food :)

Everything deep fried is very bad indeed, but junk food is even worse, for me is really junk, it tastes bad...

... and single ;)
 
Wow, there's a lot of people like... 6' 4" + :eek:

Wish I were tall... *gets exceedingly jealous* :mischief:

Out of interest... I've heard exercise helps make you taller. Are most of you tall guys involved in some form of sport?

oh yeah... I'm 16 and about 5' 7"... which for me is nowhere near enough ¬_¬. Yeah, I have to be tall to feel good about myself, I'm shallow like that ¬_¬. At 6' 4" you're tall enough to be damn tall without not being able to fit through an average doorway... wish I were 6' 4"... *gets exceedingly jealous again*
