@iwannabetaller. I dont think it is the same study i looked through it and it did not have the bogus 187cm height average they claimed the heighest was 184 from a tiny sample and total average was 182 cm
@Panda Bear. What is it about fking round or even numbers that people like so much? Like anyone notice that everyone sets requirements just based on even numbera like in bodybuilding forums "6,2" is the best height not 6'1 not 6'3 but 6'2 . i find it ridiculous same thing goes for 180 cm requirment in europe . no 179 isnt the best height nor is is it 181 or 183 its 180 lads it just sounds nicer 😄 haha
I read two interesting things today some dude claimed the CDC measures their average height using foam slippers on the subjects in the study id it were true it could inflate the average heighr by at least a quarter inch or about half a centimeter . .
I did some research and looked up the nhanes anthropometry procedure on google and it looks likw they do use slippers but only for weighing subjects not measuring height. Although one flaw in the study was that men were able to refuse to take off their shoes and the researchdr just used a ruler to measure the sole of the shoe and subtract thisnfrom the measured height of the subject Obviously a sneaky man could be wearing lifts inside his shoes

It's the same study. Your link directly linked to the study (look for yourself). The 187 number was from one Croatian province only, however, the results were attained by measurement apparently.
Yes youre right I see it now, however as I said esrlier the sample size was 27 men from one specific area. This is a very small sample size and I can see why they dont claim these 27 men represent all dalmatians in the study like in my article i linked
