How big is Hien?

Where are you guys getting 6 foot. It's 5'9!!

Whoever wrote that converter needs to go back to math class. Lol.

I think I see what's wrong with it. It's multiplying by .0833 and is giving the number as a percentage. So basically 5 + .967 of a ft, instead of converting it to 11.6 inches, which it normally would be. So if you multiply the 12 inches in a foot by .967, you end up with 11.604 inches.

It's not wrong, though. 71.6 inches is roughly equal to 5.9 feet. The thing you have to keep in mind is that there are 12 inches in a foot, not 10. So "0.9 feet" is 9/10th of a foot. This is equal to 10.8/12, or 10.8 inches.

Already pointed that out in my edit. It's just weird that a program designed to convert one measurement to another just does basic math and gives a percentage instead. It kinda defeats the purpose of the converter.

I think I see what's wrong with it. It's multiplying by .0833 and is giving the number as a percentage. So basically 5 + 96% of a ft, instead of converting it to 11.6 inches, which it normally would be. (12 inches per foot = 60 inches for 5 ft, with 11.6 inches left over).

From what I guessed after actually counting the inches rather than relying on google at first glance was, yeah 5.96/6.0 feet. I just got confused.

Secret sources tell me he's big where it counts.

I opened this thread for the sole reason of making a joke surrounding the male member.

Now I feel like I have no longer have a purpose being here. I will go back to browsing the forums.

Easy come, easy go.

Ilms aside, he's tall enough for this ride.

Too big for a Doman, that's for sure.

Life would be much easier with metric :P Although I'm pretty sure if the US switched from lbs to kgs, there would be mass confusion.

My math (which I suck at): 71.6" / 12" = 5.96' (not 5'9" dividing by inches converts the first value into feet)
The .96 can also be looked at as 96% of a foot, which is just a little over 11.5 inches (11.52)

69cm would be the displayed value if max height male midlander stood at 5'9
