IMO thats just taller not tall.

I would consider from 5ft 10in to be tall.

Everyone's perception of tall is going to be different, based on their own height I'd imagine.
For me anything a few more inches than me I'd say was tall. But then for me there's tall, very tall and skyscraper.laugh

Your looking in the wrong places laugh

@ Phoenix. I think 6 1'' is well above average to be honest.

@ Sal. I Found this

1) The average height of Irish men is 5' 7".
2) The average height of Irish women is 5' 5".

Personally I think its whatever you want it to be and for most its whatever your comfortable with.

It all depends on what a persons perception of what tall is. With respect to Irish (no offence wee girl), someone who is 5' 10" or other is tall compared to her.

Am 5ft 1in myself, which is small no matter what way you look at it lol.

And IMO 5ft 10in or more is simply tall.
