I am 17 now and only 6 feet 4 inches tall or 194 cms just ok nothing special about me but some time the top of travel buses hits my head regularly while i stand and travel in buses in our area...
My height is the shortest distance between the ground level i am standing normally , and my head under normal conditions of pressure and temperature. Height of human beings is generally measured using a standard metric called inches/ centi meters. By "height" we actually mean the "Length" of the human body when standing straight. Height (standing) == depth (standing low) == length ( lying on the bed) The length or distance is generally measured in a popular metric called meters. One standard meter is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second. I think you are happy with the explanation??
