    6'2" or 6'3" somewhere in between most likely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Somewhere between 6' and 6' 1" in my bare feet. Haven't had my height measured in a few years.


    Irish people aren't particularily tall btw. In my experience anyway. I'm considered tall back home, when tbh, I should be only average.

    Eh?

    Well anyway I worked long and hard at it and finally decided to stop growing at 6'2".

    All of which reminds me I'd like to meet that guy Chris Greener sometime who is something like 7'7" which officially makes him even taller than Chewbacca!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Binomate


    I'm 6'2".

    6' 5" when I checked last year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,455 ✭✭✭weemcd


    5'10" aprox.

    what age do you stop growing?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 425 ✭✭StephenInsane


    4'9


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch


    Wait till Joejoem arrives, he's 6'7 I think.

    I have no idea how tall I am but I'll wager 5'10 or 5'11.

    EDIT: Bloody curiosity, after running around the find to measuring tape I'm about 6'1.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq

    but i wear shoes with huge soles so i appear nearer 6'5"/6'6"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,688 ✭✭✭grimloch

    Nope, it can actually be quite awkward and not as fun if the guy is shorter!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,301 ✭✭✭airetam_storm


    6' and still going

    \And no way your 6'1 gimloch!

    It can also be awkward if the guy is a lot bigger than the girl tbh. Well no, not awkward, just tricky. Don't want to crush her or anything ;)


    And we're not all the same height lying down. Some of us have fine cultivated beer bellies that add a good few inches to out horizontal height. :)

    My measuring tape begs to differ. I am around that. You're taller than me aren't you. You'd be maybe 6'2.

    /sigh.

    I just did and got pretty much the same result. 6'1. Without shoes. Amazing how much extra you get when you stand up straight and don't slouch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,301 ✭✭✭airetam_storm


    I do not slouch, i merely adjust my standing position!

    \Edit\ Sorry all, i'l utilise the pm functionare!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 455 ✭✭Ferror

    what age do you stop growing?

    Males are supposed to stop growing just before you reach adulthood (18) where its early teens for females.

    I'm a 6'2 person also :)
