GotWoot Heights

[Buffalobiian]

So..how tall are our (not so) average GotWooters (to the nearest feet)? Are you concerned about your height? Too tall? Too short? Smiling at your latest mark on the wall for our growing teens, or frowning as you go downhill as you hit 93? Clothing difficulties?


---------------
I used to be quite concerned about mine, always setting a standard that I hoped to reach, but never will. Now that I'm pretty much set, I look around me and realise height really doesn't bother me that much. "Too average" is better than the extremes.

I'm at peace with my height overall, though I like playing basketball. 172 cm can be quite short for that. To be able to dunk... Don't have problems with clothing, except for wideness.
I did have an issue when I was younger, cause I always wanted to be tall. Don't know why. I don't now.

Edit: Changed my height by respected comment from RyougaZell.

[Spiegel]

I think I am just right at 6'4". Not too tall, not too short. Oh, and clothing... Is an odd issue. Dress shirts are at a 17" neck and 38 sleeve length. Hard to find a shirt that really works on all accounts.

[darkshadow]

6' here, just right.

1.72 cm??? DUDE!!! Are you like Thumbenille or something? LOL...


I myself am 1.71 M / 171 cm. Whatever that may be on inches.

I don't think I've grown since then.

Yeah there has been a lot of thread recycling going on lately. Anyway like I said in the other thread I'm 6'2". This thread just reminded me of a guy I know, broke both his legs awhile back and had to have pins put in. Anyway when it was all said and done, he had grown 2 inches.

[Kraco]

I'm still that same 5'8" (173 cm). Never wanted to be taller, though I'm happy I'm not shorter as it would be too hard to reach top shelves otherwise. There are plenty of situations in life when it's more comfortable to take less space.

[Board of Command]

Same height as Kraco.

[Animeniax]

Let's vary it from the other height thread and add weights.

I'm 5' 7.5" 151lb.

[Xelbair]

173cm, average height in my country.
Weight's you say? i say no way!
Weighing machine really hates me.

69KG, last time I weighed. I believe I've lost some muscle mass, since I haven't been exercising much at all in the last 6 months or so. Cardio's absolute shyte.

I felt a bit of deja vu as I wrote up this thread....now I know why

[Animeniax]

I've lost about 10 lbs (22kg) in the last 2-3 months. It's kind of disappointing since I want to be at 170lbs (77kg).

[masamuneehs]

i was absolutely shocked when i went and got a physical this year and the doctors reported me at 6 1. i'd been 6 feet even for almost six years (early growth spurt, god that made dominating elementary school hoops almost a joke, even for my uncoordinated ass). also, i found it hard to find pants sometimes with my length that aren't made for whale sized waists, back in the States. But here in Japan, there are more sizes for the length that have reasonable waists..

my expectations were the same. also, what's up with the mods sleeping on thread merging? i wasn't a nazi in my tenure with the wootsquad just to see you boys slack off

[Kraco]

What happens to the poll if you merge this with the old thread? Maybe if you merged the old pollless thread with this... But since this was a poll thread to begin with, the old posts would have little meaning since those people wouldn't have votes in.

[Ryllharu]

5'11" and 180 lbs (180cm and 81 kg).

I'm a little heavier than I'd prefer given my relative lack of muscle mass, but someday I hope to get whatever fat converted to muscle.

Sitting on one's posterior at work all day does not do one's physical fitness any good. My last job was a lot more physical, so I weighed about 5 lbs less and had more muscle.

[Xrlderek]

Around 170cm and 59.4kg. Most of my friends are taller, but I'm fine with it.

So don't dodge the questions masa, what do you weigh and how is Japan treating you?

Wow you're tiny!

About the same, actually, though I have been steadily taking down some weight during the past few months (I was much closer to 83 KG). not a serious change, but at least I'm not getting any fatter.

I don't consider myself tall, but it's probably because most of my friends and co-workers are taller than me (they might be giants), and the rest of the people I know aren't in my age group, so they aren't valid for comparison. I know that I'm taller than average, but it doesn't feel like it.
