        “Western” nations average 5’9" to 6’, so yeah, Mandy (Inego) is about average height, like 2.5" taller than average for Spanish people.

        That just depends on your geographical location and gender. He’s not even above average where I come from, he’s perfectly average. I feel pretty short at 5’10".

        Average is 5’10". 6’ is 2" above that, not 6".

          You’re going to need to specify what demographic you’re talking about when you say average. The global average is 5‘6“.

            The global average includes a bunch of Asian countries that are significantly shorter. Average in the west is taller than that.

        Don’t worry, you’re well past the 75th percentile and near the 95th worldwide, you’re plenty tall.

        The army put me at 6’4 20 years ago, barefoot. My last Drs appointment said I was 6’3 while wearing New balance with a fat cushy sole.
