https://tall.life/height-percentile-...r-age-country/
I found this site because I was telling someone that I recently saw a girl taller than me for the first time in a few years, and we wondered how common it was for a woman to be 6'2" or taller.
Turns out that only 1 in 7,416 US women are 6'2" or above, which explains why I have seen so few in my adult life who are taller than me.
In the US, only 1 in 19 men are taller than me.
However, in Sweden, where there are a lot of really tall guys, 1 in 5 men are taller than me. When I used to go to that poker tournament in St. Kitts, attended by many Swedes, I noticed that a lot of guys there were really tall. (A lot of them also had beautiful girlfriends, as Swedish women under 30 are often really hot, though they tend to hit the wall hard in their 30s.)
In Indonesia, only 1 in 37,554 men would be taller than me. I'd pretty much be a giant there.
The average height in the US is increasing, so these numbers will change in the coming decades.
Interesting site to play around with.
I remember being in downtown Tokyo and looking over the heads of the entire crowd of tens of thousands of people. Felt really weird.
