Have you measured yourself accurately? Male 23

I always thought I was 5'5. Until very recently I got someone curious when I said I am 5'5.

They measured and said I am 5'7- 170cms exact skull touching, barefoot, Standing fully upright, looking forward.

In fact with hair volume I am like 5'8 Shoes off. So, in public I walk around as 5'9.

I measured myself several times today. Took a measurement on the wall. Marked the points and then held a Ruler Straight on 5'7 and it touches my skull.

Crazy thing is I am in Pakistan. Globally it's supposed to be among the countries where most guys I see should be around my height. In reality, most places I go in urban cities I see most dudes that look like they are barefoot 5'9" or 5'10".

Heck, even in my University class we have like 3 girls that are taller than me- or atleast I think they are.

I can’t imagine how short I would feel in west 😶‍🌫️
