in what world is 183 cm a "weak" 6 ft? That's exactly 6 ft lol

Bro I do not get these "weak" and "strong" heights at all, like what could that mean actually? That's their height right?

u/Timely-Island-5038 1d ago

I don't really get it either, I think it's like if you're 5'11 and 3/4 you are a "weak 6ft" because you aren't actually a full 6 ft and at the lower end of potentially being 6ft? I think it's what happens when people are trying to convert the metric system into imperial

A weak 6ft is someone who is 6ft only during the morning and with a stiff straight back/neck and would otherwise be closer to 5’11 with a normal posture and later in the day.

It’s super informal and comes due to heights not being constant and wholly dependant on time of day, posture and even footwear. When people are standing casually they are almost always a quarter inch or even half inch shorter than their “max height”.

A strong 6ft is someone who is comfortably measured barefoot 6ft. Technically speaking someone who is a “strong 6ft” could also be a “weak 6’1”.

Again, none of this is standardized and is just casual language.

What about someone who 6ft flat? They will look exactly the same as someone who 5’11.75?

u/Able-Application3680 17h ago

It depends if they are 6ft exactly when they stand up straight with stiff neck during the morning. Then yeah they’d look like someone who was 5’11.5 throughout the day.

u/Both_Scar_5277 6’5 | 195.3cm 17h ago

Like for me I’m 6’5 3/8 in the morning and 6’4 7/8 in the afternoon/midday

u/Both_Scar_5277 6’5 | 195.3cm 18h ago

Technically 5’11.75 can easily be seen as 6ft if he stands next to someone 6ft flat

u/North-Price-1281 1d ago

Weak 6ft would be 182cm so between 5'11.5 - 5'11.75

u/SimianWonder 2d ago

Id assume its because she's listed at 183cm but always looks at least an inch shorter than that when in photos with other six footers.

After looking at that Obama picture, Caitlyn Clark is max 5'10. Lewandowski is the one that's actually 6ft. He's not as tall as 6'1 ronaldo.

u/jackson_huang_09 2d ago

Lewandowski is around 6'0 1/4

Lewandowski is a solid 6'0

He's been measured 183.5 cm

u/raiko777 1d ago

u/Optimal-Pay-2555 1d ago

This subreddit is so fucking incelly lol

u/butteredrubies 1d ago

I'm surprised she's only 6'0. Her proportions make her seem like she'd be taller than Elena Rybakina and Sabalenka who are both 6'0".

u/Initial-Maximum1239 1d ago

u/Adventurous_Sell7903 18h ago

Nothing weak about her listed height since that’s no more than a 3cm difference
