That’s a weird scale.
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.
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.

Worst fucking graphic ever lmao
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
I am 7 inches taller than the average Dutch person. Which, by this graph, means I am 50 times taller than you.
Pee-wee.
Ah, yes, Netherlanders are indeed 4x taller than Indonesians, but at least the Indonesians get better saving throws from their size.
Kenyans aren’t on there, but I have to assume they’re pretty big given the 60’ move speed.
