At what height does someone start to be considered tall in your opinion? Also, how tall are you?

I am 5'8", so I consider anyone 6'0" or taller tall.

Changing my answer:
quote:

adult male heights are on average 70 inches (5'10) with a standard deviation of 4 inches.

Based on this, I say "tall" is over 6'2" since that is the average plus a standard deviation.

6'6" for a guy
5'10" for a girl

I am 6'4" and I have never considered myself tall, but in all honesty 6'6" and taller people just seem unworldly tall to me. In my opinion if you can get your inseam without having to go to a specialty store/section then you're not tall, above average maybe, but not tall.

6'2 for a guy and 5'8 for a girl. I'm 6'.

Bonus: Under 5'7 maybe 5'6 is short for a guy and under 5'1 for a girl.

Don't know how these match actual stats but seems about right.

I'm 6'1" and that is just about the lower limit of "tall" actually an inch or two taller is what I would say is tall, for women I'd guess 5'9" or 5'10".

different for girls, imo. I'm 5'10" and that's tall, but I think if a guy was the same height he'd be considered average height. Would have to get up in the mid 6's to be notably tall.

I'm exactly 77.5" which puts me between 6'5" and 6'6".

What's funny is my wife is 5'4" so I tower above her as she chews my arse out lol.
