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:

I am gathering TOTAL HEIGHTS(inches) and HEIGHTS OF A PERSON'S NAVEL, MEASURED FROM THE GROUND(inches). it would be great if you can provide these 2 measurments. Thanks

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.
