Height varies a lot around the world — and some countries have a definite lead.
Using medical data, INSIDER calculated average height figures for the 25 tallest countries — which skews heavily towards nations in Europe.

The world's tallest man clocks in at 251cm (8 feet 3 inches) and he's called Sultan Kösen, from Turkey.

But despite his commanding size, his compatriots don't quite make the list of countries with the tallest people on average.

INSIDER used average height data from a medical database run by NCD Risk Factor Collaboration, a project linked to Imperial College London.

It lists separate figures for male and female height in each country — we took an average of these two figures to give a rough idea of how tall the average person is in the country, and also listed the separate male and female figures.

HEIGHT AND WEIGHT

In 2011-12, the average Australian man (18 years and over) was 175.6 cm tall and weighed 85.9 kg. The average Australian woman was 161.8 cm tall and weighed 71.1 kg.

On average, Australians are growing taller and heavier over time. Between 1995 and 2011-12, the average height for men increased by 0.8 cm and for women by 0.4 cm, while the average weight for men increased by 3.9 kg and for women by 4.1 kg.

In general, older people are shorter than younger people with the average male aged 75 years and over (169.7 cm) being 8.1 cm shorter than one aged 18-24 years (177.8 cm). Women aged 75 years and over (155.7 cm) were also 8.1 cm shorter than women aged 18-24 years (163.8 cm) on average.

Global study of tallest people shows Australians are going up in the world

This was published 5 years ago

Updatedfirst published at

Australia's population has grown taller and taller over the past century, thanks to improved healthcare, nutrition and hygiene.

A global height analysis of 200 countries quite literally measured the average growth of global populations from 1914 to 2014, with every country recording an increase in height.

Australian men stand tall as the only non-Europeans in the top 25, coming in at number 18, while Australian women jumped from 29th to 15th place.

According to the study, published in science journal eLife, Dutch men (182.5 centimetres) and Latvian women (169.8 centimetres) are the tallest in the world on average.

The study found a strong correlation between the height and health of a country's population. While height is partly due to genetics, "children and adolescents who are malnourished, or who suffer from serious diseases, will generally be shorter as adults," the researchers said.

The biggest movers were Iranian men, who grew an average of 16.5 centimetres, and South Korean women, who grew a whopping 20.1 centimetres to 162.3 centimetres, in the process shooting up from 196th to 55th in the global rankings.

But some barely grew at all. Women in countries like Madagascar and the Philippines increased by less than one centimetre in 100 years, while men in poorer countries like Laos, Nepal and Timor-Leste remain among the world's shortest.

While all countries' populations grew over the century, some sub-Saharan and Middle Eastern countries actually declined in average height in the past 30 years.

Imperial College London Professor Majid Ezzati, who led the research, said: "This study gives us a picture of the health of nations over the past century, and reveals the average height of some nations may even be shrinking while others continue to grow taller. This confirms we urgently need to address children and adolescents' environment and nutrition on a global scale, and ensure we're giving the world's children the best possible start in life."

Interestingly, a number of high-income countries such as the United States plateaued in the past 40 years, the study found.

"Our study also shows the English-speaking world, especially the USA, is falling behind other high-income nations in Europe and Asia Pacific. Together with the poor performance of these countries in terms of obesity, this emphasises the need for more effective policies towards healthy nutrition throughout life," Professor Ezzati said.

The study found that "taller people generally live longer, are less likely to suffer from heart disease and stroke, and taller women and their children are less likely to have complications during and after birth. Taller people may also earn more and be more successful at school. However, they are also more likely to develop some cancers."

On average, men are taller than women in every country.

The study identified "a need to better understand why height has changed in different countries by different amounts, and use this information to improve nutrition and health across the world."

The analysis was based on almost 1500 studies, measuring people born between 1896 and 1996.

Average height australia

Average height and weight by country

Average sizes of men and women

The following table shows the average sizes, weights and BMI from 128 countries. All figures refer to men and women between the ages of 18 and 25 years. In the US, the average male is 1.77 mtall. The average US-american woman reaches 14 cmless with a height of 1.63 m.

Heights by continents

A pure list by country may be helpful when it comes to classifying yourself in your environment. Here once again a list summarized by subcontinent. Here too, it is clear that there are differences within a continent. For example, the weight of Southeast Asians and Polynesians differs slightly from the rest of the subcontinent. With regard to body size, there are noticeable variations between Southern Europeans, North Americans and Near Easterners and the rest of the respective continent.

Influences on body size

The main reasons for regional differences in body size are heredity and nutritional standards. A protein-rich food is important, and this is noticeable over generations. Although protein is considered an essential component here, a weakening of the body due to diseases and allergies also has an inhibiting effect on growth. Diseases occur more frequently as a result of weaknesses in the immune system and therefore consume the energy that the body could put into its growth. Good health is primarily due to a good diet, but in the second instance also to a good health system with adequate medical care. As a result, the average body size is remarkably low, especially in poor countries of the third world.

Genetic predispositions are another factor for body size. It is not individual genes that speak for or against pronounced growth, but rather the interaction of several dozen genes. Thus, the expressions of these genes are passed on in families or ethnic groups.

Historical increase in size

In almost all countries of the world, the average body size has increased significantly over the last 100 years. While German men were still approximately 13 cmsmaller at the beginning of the 20th century, Spanish men increased over 14 cmand Iranians even over 16 cm. With the women, the height of South-Korean-women rose by over 20 cm.

These drastic increases are unique in the history of mankind. In no phase of the evolution humans became so much bigger, as since the industrial revolution at the end of the 18. century. In the preceding 1000 years both men and women did not grow at all on average and before that only by 1-2 cm per 1000 years.

Strikingly often a international comparison of penis sizesis requested here, which is now available on a separate page. Additionally an evaluation of the average cup sizesby country is now existing.

Data sources

All sizes and weights are based on a summary of scientific studies evaluated by the NCD Risk Factor Collaboration(NCD-RisC) and published in the medical journal The Lancet. The more than 2100 studies summarized there are from the years 1985 to 2019. In contrast to the NCD-RisC no long-term development is presented here, which is why the data in the above table are only composed of the studies of the latest 3 years.

TALLEST HUMANS on Earth (South Sudan)

Judging by the moans, finished a dozen times. She didn't really know how to suck, but considering that she had sucked for twenty minutes, the man was ripe for death. My wife. Moaned and finished very violently, and when I saw a man fill her face with sperm, and she tries to swallow everything, I could not resist and again finished her ass as broken as a glass.

The men more than politely deviated and left.
