How tall is a 43-foot man?

The height of 43 feet is about 1.75- 1.85 meters. There is a relative proportional relationship between height and foot length: 7: 1.

Old shoes size 43 is equal to 265, the foot length is 250-255 mm, and the estimated height is1.75-1.85 m. Adults with a height of 1.80m generally have a foot length of 265mm and wear standard shoe size 265 (commonly known as size 43).

Although the size of the foot has a certain relationship with the height, it is not absolute. Children with small feet will definitely become bigger in the future. We see people with big feet and short bodies. Also exists.

In fact, a very important reason for determining a child's height is the "genetic factor". According to statistics, 70% to 75% of human adult height depends on genetic factors. Although genetic factors account for a large proportion, it does not mean that we can't change the height of children.

Influencing factors of height

The height of human body mainly depends on the length of lower limb bones. There are epiphyseal cartilage at both ends of the lower limb bones, and chondrocytes are constantly dividing, proliferating and ossifying, so the bones gradually become longer and the human body grows taller. Before adulthood, epiphyseal chondrocytes continue to divide and proliferate, and bones gradually grow. For example, epiphyseal cartilage is completely replaced by bone tissue, epiphysis and spine are completely integrated, bones no longer grow, and children's bodies no longer grow.

The younger the child is, the greater the proliferation potential of epiphyseal cartilage, and the greater the time and space for the child to grow taller. In most cases, chondrocytes will stop dividing and growing when boys reach 18 years old and girls reach 16 years old. After the epiphysis heals, it stops growing and no medicine can be added.

Height is determined by congenital genetic factors and acquired environmental factors. Genetic factors determine the possible range of height, environmental factors affect the development of genetic potential and determine the speed and degree of growth.
