Shocking. My brother is 5’11” but he’ll die on the hill that he’s 6’0” lmao
so everyone who is between 5’8″ and 5’11” claims 6’0″. i mean, why not.
Pathetic.
– someone who is 6’4”
The metric system is more precise here. You can report your height cm-wise, not 2.54cm-wise.
I think it looked better with measured height being the continuous line and reported being the discrete intervals, to match the data being shown, but at least this is labelled correctly.
Not only are we short; we’re honest!
The chart highlights how US males often inflate their heights, especially those over 5’8”.
**Key Insights:**
• **Over 5’8”**: People tend to report their height an inch taller on average.
• **Height Rounding**: Common for guys who are 5’9” to 5’11” to claim 6’0” or even 6’1”.
• **Over 6’0”**: Still an inch of over-reporting on average.
I like to describe my height as 5’11”, 5’12” on a good day.
I should start saying I’m 6’1 to balance this out.
I’m 5’ 11 and 3/4” so I say 6’. Feels like I’m cheating but I’m closer to 6’ than 5’11”
Looks like the lying starts at 5’8”.
I’m 6’2 and just say I’m 6 foot
I wish I was tall enough to lie about my height. Being 5’7 is has locked me into a vicious cycle of truthfulness.
