this is something i've been wondering about lately. sometimes i meet people that i think are around 5'11 or so and then i see they are like me or shorter (i'm 5'9)
i can't give you some examples referred to famous people:
1. james dean looks a lot taller than ben stiller, but they are the same height (5'8)
2. harrison ford looks a lot taller than leonardo di caprio, but they both are 6'0 even
3. robert de niro looks significantly taller than anthony hopkins, but the latter is a inch taller (de niro being 5'9 and hopkins being 5'10)
4. people as george clooney, sylvester stallone and humphrey bogart look around 5'11-6'0, but they are just 5'9
is it just a matter of body parts proportions or what else?
