This is an excellent shitpost and made me laugh very hard.
Around 5’11" in Germany
Worst fucking graphic ever lmao
It has to be a joke haha.
So that’s how the Netherlands colonized Indonesia.
Really weird that I’ve been skipping that exact video in my YouTube feed and then see this comment.
Which video?
This scale is totally wack. The feet of the human bodies in the graph don’t start at 0 but somewhere between 4 and 5. Such a bad graph. That being said, we Dutch people are very tall and powerful and you should be terrified >:3
They have ridiculous accents, though. They got nerfed in the tulipmanie patch
I am 7 inches taller than the average Dutch person. Which, by this graph, means I am 50 times taller than you.
Pee-wee.
Apparently i’m almost 3 inches taller than average. So somewhat better but still scary
Are they counting Homo Floresiensis for Indonesia?
Why are half the comments talking about the scale??? That’s the joke, are they stupid???
It’s called Netherlands, those are all Enderpeople so obviously they’re tall
How old is this chart? The average American has got to be at least 5’10"
Average American man is 5’9.3" (and has been around for a long time). So not only is the graph misleading it’s just wrong.
In case anyone was wondering, within America: White 5’10", Black 5’ 9", Asian and Hispanic around 5’7".
RUMBLING, RUMBLING, IT’S COMING
Tatakae!
That’s a weird scale.
Their feet starts at the 4 foot 8 inches mark.
Completely bizarre scaling choice.
You mean completely amazing scale choice
I was trying to figure out what was bothering me about it. Basically 1’0” - 5’0” is 1 tick mark part foot and then it’s 1 tick mark per inch. So basically you have a 12:1 ratio for the first 60 inches so it’s not a linear, logarithmic, exponential or any normal type of scale.
Or simply, according to the scale from top of the head to calves is only one foot. Their head is only an inch tall.
Such techniques are often used to sell a conclusion with data that doesn’t agree. Scaling, cropping, etc. Visuals are very powerful, and people will look at a graph and assume it’s correct.
Agreed, it’s total bullshit. This sort of stuff should be outlawed.
one glance and you’d assume that the average Indonesian man only comes up to the calf of the average man from The Netherlands
I like how Indonesian men are the same height as a Dutch man’s knees.
This scale is so exaggerated, I am short and know tall people, they do not tower over me like that haha
