Is the length of the arms the same as your height?

Question

I want to know because I am 5`10 and the length of my arms is 6`4 so I wonder if I could reach that height I am only 15 years old. Do you think I could if so show me the link where it sais that?
Thanks

Answer 1

This is a wives tale that is close but no proven ratios or proof that it's true. It's a very close measurement from fingertip across Ur chest to the other fingertip to = Ur height. Everyone I know it's close. The chest measurement is important in this method, it's not just Ur arms. There is no link because there is no proof. U might find it in a trivia or in ole sayings but there is no scientific proof.

U still have growing to do. Males grow till they are around 22, females 20. Don't worry U will be a tall man, time just has to pass & U will grow into what was meant to be for you. At 5'10", 15 yrs old, 6'4" is not out of the question for U. I would bet that you will be over 6' by the time Ur 17. Best of Luck, enjoy Ur youth.

Answer 2

Within a couple inches, yeah

If you extend your arms left and right...the length from fingertip to fingertip would be about the same as your overall height.

Answer 3

YES YOUR ARM SPAN IS SUPPOSED TO BE CLOSE TO YOUR HEIGHT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY BUT IT IS. IF YOURS ISNT MAYBE YOU HAVENT REACHED YOUR FULL HEIGHT. OR YOU COULD HAVE SCOLIOSIS (CURVETURE OF THE SPINE) I MYSELF HAVE IT AND SO DOES MY FATHER, HE IS 5' 11" AND IS SUPPOSED TO BE 6 4...AND YES HIS ARMS ARE 6' 4"

Answer 4

you aren't making much sense here. Unless your arms really are 64 inches long, in which case they would be dragging on the ground behind you.

Answer 5

u must be retarded....end being a nerd and watch basketball for as quickly as....in basic terms approximately each basketball participant has a wing span greater suitable than their top......its no longer a huge deal....it somewhat is a contemporary and apply it to your benefit extraordinarily in activities
