hey guyz, I have a question

what's the average height in Holland? i have been told that in holland average height is about 6 3(which really surprised me, 190cm is considered tall where ever u go) i am myself 194cm(6foot 4.5) so i dont buy that average height in holland is 6 foot 3.... btw public here is getting taller(specially new generation) but most tall males are in 6 1 - 6 2 category , and average height is still about 5 10 in UK, so i would be really surprised if a country like holland is that much taller than UK?

Never really been to holland and checked out the average height but i know a lot of the younger generation are getting taller so who knows.. we might all end up as giants in like another 2000 years? Confused

New generations are indeed much taller. But, I would not know averages.

I think that is true, at least it's sound logical.

I don't think it sounds illogical. That's natural selection. Genes became 'purified', and people are prettier, taller, but not stronger or smarter. Smile
Probably because of way of living.

Something in these waters. Elementary kids now are as tall as middle school kids of last generation.

Kids these days are getting taller and taller. I've come up with a theory that 'they' add some kind of growth hormones to all food (that affects people under 20), which isn't so weird seeing as tall and big those kids are >.>
