So about 1 in 5 of us are 6'3 or higher? I dont buy that. I think everyone is adding 1 or 2 inches.

i think it would be more interesting to see a poll about how much 2+2ers weighed. but dont put it in such huge increments so it's meaningless. maybe 15lbs or so. find out how fat internet poker players really are.

It's been my experience that most dudes think (or at least say) they're an inch or 2 taller than they really are.

Edit - Not most, but a lot.

Right, and being that people are posting this on an internet forum, I think it is much more likely that they are doing this.

I have met so many guys that claim they are 6'3 or 6'4 and are no where near there.

some people may remember a thread from many months ago. I forget exactly what people stated. Was it IQ? Maybe it was SAT scores. In any event the scores were a bit unbelievable in my opinion. So there was probably some serious internet inflation going on.

Yeah, I cant remember how many times I have seen 140+ IQ scores claimed on these forums. Occasionally 150+. All exaggerations.

yes...all guys who say they r 5'10 are really 5'8 and guys that say 5'8 are 5'6...i always give guys so much crap about this b/c they do it ALL the time, once they reach 6'0ish they usually tell the truth though

I'll be honest. I frequently exaggerate by an inch or 2, but never when i'm discussing my height. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

In light of this, it would probably be pretty amusing to run a "how big is your penis" poll. The minimum bound could be "12 inches or smaller."

Has a thread been done yet that attempts to crown a winner for best caption to that picture?

I'm actually 5'6" and a 1/2....
but I just say 5'6"

I would have no problem answering 'under 5'0"' if that's how tall I really was.
When I was a kid I was easily 6-12 inches shorter than most kids my age. Speculation that there was some sort of problem with my development...etc etc.

Doctors predicted that I would only grow up to be about 4'7" or so (seriously....which i guess would have put me even shorter than Evan).

Eventually I finally hit my growth-spurt and made it to a towering 5'6"! (or 5-6 and a 1/2...whatever).

I was the opposite. I haven't grown since I was 15, so I'm not -that- tall. Before then I was always way the hell off the growth charts.

I'm about 3'42"
