I've always thought I was around 6'2" at the height of 188cm or so and that's been for about 2 years now.

I got measured in maths class and I stood 187cm but I just measured the shoes I was wearing and sole was 3cm.

I just measured myself and put a ruler ontop of my head and marked it and then kept ruling the 30cm until I got to my height.

To my shock I'm only 181cm tall! :eek:
I stood up broad on 2 feet aswell.

Now I looked up google to see how much tall I am in feet and it says I'm not even 6 foot yet!

This is a shock as I've thought I've been over 6 ft tall for atleast 2 years now.

On the cricket they say Matthew Hayden is about 6'4" but on cricinfo it says his 188cm and on google 188cm is only 6'1".

Is the google method correct or is it wrong because I've also seen a basketball player on his stats sheet say he was 6'4" at 192cm.
 
You're 71 inches tall (2.54 cm in an inch)

There are 12 inches in a foot

So yes you are just a shade under 6foot tall.


BTW, I'm 6foot5inches tall.
 
Easy count bro...12 Inches means a foot...
Me 6 Foot 1 Inch...
Means 73 Inches...And in cm 73 into 2.54=185..

I know for a fact I'm 6''2 because everyone I speak to is like your so tall blah blah (mainly relatives) and because I got my mate to measure my height.

I'm 6ft1, and still growing, i've grown 2 inches in the past year. Loads of my old High School friends who used to call me short are now smaller than me which is awesome.
