Human height (English Wikipedia)

Pineau, JC; Delamarche, P; Bozinovic, S (1 September 2005). "Les Alpes Dinariques: un peuple de sujets de grande taille Average height of adolescents in the Dinaric Alps". Comptes Rendus Biologies. 328 (9): 841–6. doi:10.1016/j.crvi.2005.07.004. PMID 16168365. This study contributes to an update of average heights among European populations. Our investigation covering 2705 boys and 2842 girls aged 17 years, shows that, contrary to the general belief, adolescents of the Dinaric Alps are, on average, the tallest in Europe. With an average height of 185.6 cm, they are taller than Dutch adolescents (184 cm on average). Note: the authors added +1 cm to the mean height of the male sample to account for unfinished growth, resulting in a statistical value of 185.6 cm.

Our investigation covering 2705 boys and 2842 girls aged 17 years, shows that, contrary to the general belief, adolescents of the Dinaric Alps are, on average, the tallest in Europe. With an average height of 185.6 cm, they are taller than Dutch adolescents (184 cm on average). Note: the authors added +1 cm to the mean height of the male sample to account for unfinished growth, resulting in a statistical value of 185.6 cm.
