That's incorrect milady! An inch is 2.54 centimeters.
I'm 1m79 which is 5'10" +.
About the remark that people cheat on their height,
I'd have to say that it makes no sense to do so.
Even the OP piece is partially valid inasmuch as one
should compute bodyweight too and other factors such
as lean muscle mass, agility force and so on before gloating.
It reminds me of an anecdote involving Napoleon and his
crew stopping for the night in a castle in Eastern Europe.
As the emperor tried to grab a book high in the shelves,
Marshal Ney who was quite big came up behind him and
said : -Let me help you Sire, I'm taller than you!
Since the French word for height is synonym with great as
in greatness however, Bonaparte replied : "Higher, not taller!"
or in both English and meaning : Taller but not greater.
Good day and convo all, Tay.
Ha! Great stuff bro.
