The weird thing is - I'm currently in a region where that is average height - there are quite a few people here, even some women who are way taller then me.

Also, I always wanted to know- why don't you yankees use the metric system? And which one is used in Canada?

We don't use the Metric system because we are too lazy to change.

I am not lying. I inherit it from my Great Grandad.

In my family the first born male is always 6 feet tall exactly. My great granddad was, my granddad was, my dad was, and so am I, as to why the first born male is always 6 feet tall, I have no clue.

Roughly 6 and a half feet tall. Not sure, exactly, because I don't have a tape measure on me for some unfathomable reason.

I was accually 5'7" when I was 15, only 3 years ago as well...


There's a kid in my class (maybe 16, je ne sais pas) who I swear is over 6'. That's scary. He's not, but his height is.

Why do that?

And the one on the right is the highest-earning black entertainer of all time.

The one in the middle could have been the best heavyweigh boxer of all time, if his mommy had taught him not to bite people.

No, he never had a chance to be the best boxer of all time.
He was a slugger and was good at it. If someone with the skill of Muhammad Ali had stepped in the ring with him he would not know how to deal with it. Just during his reign there were not many skilled boxers in his weight.

Beware of stomping, then. I'd love to be 50 ft. tall, of course. Actually, just being 10 cm taller would be great.
