Post Measurements for Golden Ratio Study

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around gathering human measurements to explore the concept of the golden ratio. Participants are asked to provide their total height and the height of their navel from the ground, with an emphasis on collecting a wide range of data for analysis. One user shared their measurements: a total height of 162 inches and a navel height of 134 inches. The conversation also touches on the significance of the navel's position and the challenges in accurately measuring it, as highlighted by Markowski from the University of Maine. Additionally, there are references to related discussions about the golden ratio in another thread on photography.

Post your measurments pleasezz

I am answering a statistics problem and it asks me to answer questions referring to human measurements. Trying to reveal "the golden ratio" base on the info below:

More the better!
Since more is better, I went upstairs and measured. My total height was 162 inches from the ground and my navel is 134 inches from the ground.

Markowski, of the University of Maine, raised some questions, like, the significance of the navel, and ambiguity of measurement of a precise location of the navel since it has a non-trivial length. There has been some discussion about "the golden ratio" and other matters in the “PF photography thread", recently.
