[Broken Rose Ren]

[Absolute Zero]

I'm about 5' 9". I'm the tallest in my family and my big sister is the shortest.

[Satorian]

I'm about 5'11" (180cm). Some folks here taller than me, some not. Don't really stand out with that either way. :souka:

[]-wandering-raven-[]

I don't like it because I'm just 17. my growth curve ends up over 2.00

[The-Beautiful-Roses]

[mika_r]

i guess my hair has an effect on my measurements. one day i have super hugh hair and the next well i still do. hahaha

[]-wandering-raven-[]

Meh..being small definitely beats being really big.

Unless you're cosplaying a guy who carries a girl on his back all the time..>_>

I hit the tops of doors and sit head to roof in a lot of cars..

the only advantages are high shelves and good lookouts on concerts

[ricecake]

I am 5 feet and 2 inches plus 10 notches.:relief:

[Satorian]

-wandering-raven-[;395139']good lookouts on concerts
And everyone else in the crowd hates you for it unless you stand in the last row. :-)

In addition to my 1.80m hieght I got some new measurements today as I ordered a new jacket:
Chest circumference: 99cm (38")
Hip: 79cm (31")

w00t! for not being flabby!

[diZzy'n'pinK]

but there are lots of advantages and most importantly-can be with whoever i want :blush: one of my friends was in love with a guy who was shorter than her and she felt terrible...i have no such problems...it is fun being short :cool:
high shelves can be a problem but there always is a cute tall guy to help :blush:

[mika_r]

[ricecake]

This height ( 5'2"-5'3" ) is generally regard as petite and cuddly :-)

[moffeltoff]

Went to the doctor because of pains in my back today and I am finally 2m and 2cm :-)

[maes]

I have been called small on several ocasions, all of which I have replyed with a "who are you calling so small (fill in the blank)"

perhaps if I didn't react so much they would stop bothering me

:clueless:

[Cue]

Um, are there 2 maes in this forum or are you saying you're 15 years old and over 185cm and called SMALL???
Am I missing anything here? :?:

[Philip]

Well... I have grown a little. I am 179,5cm :-)

[maes]

yeah, that's about right. Although I am abit smaller then 185cm :gohan:

[Sarah Jane]

[extricate]

awesome, totally awesome, I'm the tallest person that has responded in this thread. (2 other guys said 6'6", but i'm a little bit taller then 6'6" i think)

[Cue]

Oh dear, 2 meters!?
Be careful, Josh, if you ever come to Japan...
You'd hit yourself on the forehead EVERYWHERE! :lol:

[Shouji-chan]

[chocolateangels]

[Homerduff]

Im 1m90 and 17 years old, Im really happy with my length (maybe I will gain a few more centimeters). Ive grown very quick when I was young and because of that I have these red stripes on my back which I really hate. Its like when a woman is pregnant, she also get red stripes near her belly..

[SuperStarEurope]

[]-wandering-raven-[]

[EmperorHirohito]

Yippee, Im in the 5' 9" - 5' 10" range, at just under 5' 10" Im in the biggest grouping of people for height, reckon it must be an average height for humans lol :-)

[Zygimantas]

I'm still 13 years old, but my tall is 1,73m :blush: I'm even taller than my oldest brother .

[frostyg02uk]

Im 6ft4 and the tallest in my whole family, which makes visiting Japanese houses a pain. im surprised im not dumb the amount of times i hit my head. My GF is 5ft3 so although shes older then me when we looked younger i use to get some bad looks from people thinking i was a man dating a kid.

[MummyMia]

i'm only 5' 2 1/2" so I like to look up to most people :-)

[maushan3]

I posted on this thread around 6 months ago and now grew 2 more cms. from 1.80 (5'11) to 1.82 (6'0 or 6'1). Bad thing I bought some pants back then and now I am having a little bit of problem with the length.

[Faustianideals]

I'm about 2m tall. I think this is my third time posting in this thread.

[hoshikuzu]

I'm 168cm, but i wish i were taller. I'm the shortest one in my family. T.T

[Sasquatch]

Just wondering.

I was 6-4 1/2 last time I went to the doc's. :D

[Mars Man]

I'm tall enough that I owe my present hair loss to my having scraped it all off on these here doorways in this land of shorter people. hee, hee, hee....

I now stand at around 189.?? cm. When I had first arrived here in Japan, to be best of my recollection, I had leveled off at 190.3 cm. (that's what hair loss does for a person...makes them a little shorter...hee, hee, hee....)

Yay! someone replied! I thought I scared everyone. lol

How tall is that in feet?:relief:

[Tokis-Phoenix]

I'm 5'6, or 165cm tall, which is basically average height for my age and gender :) . For a long time when i was a little kid i used to be the tallest in my class all the time, i really hated it, but thankfully as i got older my growth slowed down and everyone else started to grow more, and i eventually i ended up with an average height which is really nice :) .

[pugtm]

6 ft and growing :cool::cool::cool::cool:

[Mars Man]

Yay! someone replied! I thought I scared everyone. lol

I'm sorry...I simply can't do that anymore, but I'm sure it's at six feet and a hair or two.

ps. I merged this into the older thread. (Thanks for that bump, Uncle Frank!!)

[Pavel123]

Well, i am 6'5 :cool:

[Swordmaster]

Why is everyone so tall? (I think I'm the shortest guy here) I'm 5'7"... I wouldn't mind being shorter.

[Hara_Kei]

Haha, I've become a midget.

I'm barely 158 cm. :]

But whatever. Good things come in small packages (and tall ones too, just so I don't get...squashed).

[tada]

I'm 168 cm (5'6"). Considering I'm 75% Japanese blood, this shouldn't be too surprising that I'm on the short side.

I used to be way, way shorter than everyone else though (like a full head shorter).

P.S. I prefer the metric system. Easy conversion of units = win.

[alantin]

183.

I'm just as tall as I like to be. :cool:

I have never thought that I wanted to be any shorter or taller but in Japan though I found the doorways and seats in buses to be way too small.
And it was funny to see a basket ball team shorter than I was in train!


Inches and feet don't tell me anything. What am I then? 5'9 ..?

This current generation of Japanese is going to reverse the stereotype...

I have three-generation-old Japanese genes though, so I'm still affected by it.

[Stefan000]

193 cm :p

I think its a pretty normal height lol
Dutch people are supposed to be one of the tallest people in the world:souka:

Hope they don;t think I'm some kind of circusshow in Japan:blush:

[KirinMan]

Depending where you go get used to the idea of people constantly staring, rubber necking to get a look at you, and little kids running up to you and saying "oki".............

You maybe "normal" for Dutch but here you are going to be a giant. If you are thin it might be easier, however if you are stocky or big, you will stick out a lot more than you think.

I live in a prefecture with about 1.3 million people in it and I am willing to bet that out of those 1.3 million there are maybe 1,295,000 people that I am estimating here, that are shorter than I am. Actually I think I am being generous with that number, I would bet that there are less than 100 people that are taller than me.

Oh you and I are the same height. I also weigh about 115 kg as well.

[Stefan000]

Are you a native Japanese?

Ow I'm not very large or anything, normal to little weight (about 80kg) for my height. I'm not at all muscular and for my height my shoulder width is pretty normal I believe.
We had to buy a suite with 5 people last time, only 2 (incl me) could wear a standard one. The other had to adjust the shoulder width smaller, or the total length longer.

[alantin]

...and little kids running up to you and saying "oki"...


The normal set for me was the kids staring up at me and saying: "nan senchi?! nan senchi?!" :blush:
And I'm 10 cm shorter than you guys!

[KirinMan]

Are you a native Japanese?


Nope....


The normal set for me was the kids staring up at me and saying: "nan senchi?! nan senchi?!"
That often comes after the oki....:cheer:

[alantin]

Hmm.. Yeah! Might be! :cool:

[Drew-san]

I'm 6'2 O_O might have to look out for door frames in Japan.

[Otenba]
