Hi all,
Long time no see hey!
Growing up, my armspan was always about the same length as my body height, which i beleive is the same for most people.
I demonstrated this to someone the other by placing my fingertips on the floor and stretched my other hand up a doorframe, then i stood up against the doorframe leaving my upper fingertips where they were.
I was shocked to discover my arm span is about 6" longer than my height!
I kited for about 4 years so, I joked that kitesurfing must've stretched my arms, but now i can't stop thinking that.
Could we put this dumb theory to rest, could people check their relative measurements and let me know if i'm a freak or not.

It's currently my best party trick.

Fun tip: Your foot is about the same length as your forearm.

Height 166 cm
Arm Span 178 cm

Seems normal to me
