Height simulator: see any height side by side
Type any heights on the board above (cm or feet and inches) to simulate how two or more people, characters or objects compare. It works as a height visualizer, a height comparison generator and a height difference generator in one.
| Height | In feet | Taller than (men / women worldwide) |
|---|---|---|
| 150 cm | 4' 11" | <1% / 7% |
| 160 cm | 5' 3" | 6% / 53% |
| 170 cm | 5' 7" | 44% / 95% |
| 180 cm | 5' 11" | 90% / 99+% |
| 190 cm | 6' 3" | 99+% / 99+% |
| 200 cm | 6' 7" | 99+% / 99+% |

What you can simulate
Type any heights and the simulator draws them side by side on one ruler. Common uses are checking how you would look next to a friend, a partner or a celebrity, comparing a child's height with a parent's, and testing how tall a fictional character should be. Each figure shows its height in centimetres and in feet and inches, and the difference between any two is marked on the chart.
Getting a realistic picture
- Enter heights without shoes, then add footwear on the figure if you want it: trainers add 2 to 3 cm, boots 3 to 4 cm, heels 5 to 10 cm.
- Choose male, female or child figures so the body proportions match.
- Add an object you know well, such as a door (203 cm) or a car (about 145 cm), to anchor your sense of scale.
- Switch between cm and feet at any time; the chart does not move.
