You get 24.9 on the BMI Scale, 25 is overweight. I got 24.7, BMI isn't a perfect system by any means though.

Its a load of crap, going by that the once fastest man on the planet Maurice Green is overweight @ 26.60

It's not really all it's cracked up to be, low doorways, Ryanair flights, aforementioned people poking you in the eyes with umbrellas(...looks at Faith...)

Try an Aer Arann flight! I almost have problems.

You're fooking mad! I'd say 5'11" to 6'1" or 2" to be average. Anything over 6'4" is pretty tall.

I know it's not actually average, but a lot of my friends were unusually tall when I was 14/15 and I just came to see them as average after a while.

It gets very inaccurate for very athletic people with a high muscle mass.

I got 25.6 on that thing and if I'm fat then I've bad news for most of the people I know.

Oh my God, tell me this isn't so???
I'm 5ft, 10 3/4in, 10 stone, female, so i'm above average height for a guy???
OH is 6' 1" most of my family are around the 6ft mark surely 5'9" is small for a guy???

Helix · 02-06-2008 10:48PM

It's ok, 5'9" is midget country.

Pigwidgeon · 02-06-2008 10:50PM

im a girl and about 5ft 9

rossie1977 · 02-06-2008 10:58PM

6ft 5 average :eek:, not on this planet

i am just over 5'11 barefoot and what i find is that alot of people overestimate their own height, i have a friend that claims 5'9 but he is no more than 5'7, another friend claims 5'7 for herself but she is about 5'5 1/2

the average height of males in ireland is just over 5'9 (176cm or 5'9.3) and average for females is 5'5 http://www.muziqpakistan.com/board/index.php?showtopic=63115

You get 24.9 on the BMI Scale, 25 is overweight. I got 25.2, BMI isn't a perfect system by any means though.

I'm really skinny though :pac:
People are so suprised when they hear how heavy I am.

Davidius · 02-06-2008 11:00PM

5'6", 9 stone, male. 16 so I could still grow 1-2 inches. Last of six kids and the 2nd tallest of an eight person household. So I feel tall when I'm inside. :pac:

Also I'd say average height is about 5'09" for a man with 95% certainty. Average American height is about 5'10" and we're definitely at least a tiny bit smaller than them.

Loopy · 02-06-2008 11:09PM

5ft 8.. Lassie

aidan24326 · 02-06-2008 11:09PM

male 6' 1"

about 13 stone

KnifeWRENCH · 02-06-2008 11:09PM

Male, 18: I'm somewhere between 5'10" and 5'11". I don't how much I weigh (a bit too much probably

)

pq0n1ct4ve8zf5 · 02-06-2008 11:11PM

In and around the 5'8"/5'9" mark, female, nineteen, think I'm about nine stone (I don't have a scales/I don't care enough to find out). I wouldn't be the girl people would see coming and say "Jaysus look at the tall one", but I do look freakish in heels

connundrum · 02-06-2008 11:17PM

6'3 and 16 lovely stones which puts me in the overweight catergory on the vhi yoke, but I've just had my bmi calculated on an electronic calculator thingy today which put me at 24, which is good

I'll have it down to 20 by the end of the summer.

Davidius · 02-06-2008 11:26PM

Sure being tall must be an awful pain in the ass. I'm short and one of the most perfect people ever. The further you move from the height of perfection (my height) the more flawed you become.

I'm an accomplished astronaut, a master of infiltration and espionage, a crime fighter, scientist, engineer, mathematician and every other cool* thing you can think of.

*Based on my idea of cool of course.

Azureus · 02-06-2008 11:31PM

5'4'', 9stone-ish.. 23 on that bmi yoke-im normal!!!!

You forgot comedian.

star-pants · 02-06-2008 11:33PM

5'3'' and about 8st 4lbs (I think)

Kess73 · 02-06-2008 11:33PM

6'3 and 242lbs. Which is not bad as I am only 7lbs heavier than when I boxed on a regular basis.

FunkZ · 02-06-2008 11:34PM

Why is everyone saying their weight as well?

I'm just slightly under 6 foot 3 inches

BMI isn't entirely accurate, it works for some and doesn't for others. Shouldn't be used at all IMO.

02-06-2008 11:38PM

5'10" at 8 stone (My GP says too light for height and would prefer 9).

Comedians aren't cool but if I ever wanted to be one, I'd be the best comedian ever. Much better than you.
