I am 6'2. Am I considered tall in US and in Europe? What height is considered tall in US and in Europe generally?

I am 6'2. Am I considered tall in US and in Europe? What height is considered tall in US and in Europe generally?

[dangerDoge]

Hmm, I may be bias since I'm tall already, but in the US I think you'd be considered tall though not a giant.

[Anonymous]

Well average in the US for a guy is 5'9 so if you're above that you're considered tall.

[kate9582]

In Greece you'd be considered tall. Not a giant but quite tall.

[9mfeo]

Yeah, that's on the average-to-tall end of the spectrum.

[Asker]

Average -to-tall? What do you mean?

Average height in US is about 5'9

[9mfeo]

I meant exactly what I said.

[Xelebrum]

You would be considered tall to very tall by the whole world.

[chrisbigman]

Yeah, I think that's kinda tall. Granted, I'm sure some guys are taller than you, but probably not a lot of them are.

In germany you'd be a munchkin, in Italy you'd be a giant. In the US you'd be tall (ish) but not stand out.

[Asker]

munchkin in germany? İn germany average 5'10 for men. I am 6'2.5 so I am 4 inches more taller then average there.

The stats might say that but go to a bar and you'll realize there's something wrong with those statistics, maybe short people don't get out much in Hamburg! lol

[Asker]

in the US you'd be tall but not stand out. What did you mean with ''not stand out'' ?

[Asker]

well half of germany almost with turkish people so they are decreasing the average height in statistics.

So what height is considered tall in germany and US you think?

[Opinion Owner]

True, the Germans are open border because they're misguidedly guilty over the war (s). In the USA people would see you were taller than average but there's loads of tall dudes around so it wouldn't really be noticeable. I'd say 6'4+ stands out as being tall.

[Asker]

not even 6'3 is not tall enough in U. S? thats a bit strange

[Asker]

Most models are at 6'2- 6'3 range too

[Opinion Owner]

It's not that it's not tall enough, it's just that it doesn't really stand out like it does elsewhere. Modelling is an international thing so you'd say globally 6'2-6'3 would be seen as tall, dudes who are taller than that start to look proportionately odd and modelling is a game of aesthetics.

[Asker]

ah I get it alright. So 6'2 , 6'3 are tall and attractive in US. But not too much tall for stand out? Right?

Because most people saying 6'5 and up is too tall. But 6'2 range is ideal tall then

[Forrest_G]

Yeah 6'2 is pretty tall in the U. S. I say anything 5'11 and up is tall here.

[aoifeislovable]

Yeah your considered tall

[Xylem]

Why don't you ask this to Google?

[9mfeo]

I know right? Google is your friend.

[Xylem]

Well, It's stupid to ask "What's US and EU average height?" in here instead of Google.

[XNicholeMariex3]

Yes, you are tall.
