Study finds Europeans are taller then Americans [on average] der=0

[Deadbolt'd]

Well, I'm about 5' 9, and I'm 13. I'm as tall as a ton of high schoolers in the area. I guess that means I'm cool. :bow:

I gotta drive home, so I don't have time to check the answer, but you forgot to mention your height, Dupe.

Were you nurtured and supported growing up? :lol:

I'm 5'11" and I actually grew up pretty not privileged, I'll just leave it at that. My genetic makeup is mostly germanic and native american (hell if I know how that happened) so that may explain my size differing from the average.

Oh yea? *Castrates Anakha* Err boating accident.

Uhhh... err... ah screw it... ARMAGEDDON! *kills Corneo*

Damn it...you win. You big cheater. *Clicks reports button*

It always seems that no matter where you live, the farther north you are, the taller you are. And everyone stuck on the equator are midgets.

its weird because i've heard that tall people tend to live in hotter climates because people that are tall and thin dissipate heat better..where as people who live in colder climates tend to be short and fat...i guess it doesn't apply to everyone.

I'm ~5' 10" and 15...but somehow taller than a lot of people at my school

Fast food arguement = bull feces

I practically grew up on fast food, and *measures self* I'm reaching 6'3" now. I eat a lot less fast food now, though, but I've always been taller than most people at my age. (16 now, and I haven't stopped growing)

Not everyone is the same though bob, you may be able to flourish on a fast food diet, but other people may become stunted midgets if they do the same.

Who knows, maybe you'd be even bigger if you ate 100% properly, but then again maybe not.

Or anyone, for that matter. Consider that Canadians are just as tall as anyone and thinner than Americans.
