How Tall Are You?

I found this website recently http://www.celebheights.com/ and have been fascinated by height lately. So many actors wear lifts in there shoes to make themselves seem taller. Tons of actors lie about there height also. But that started getting me to think about my own height etc... I'm 6'0 barefoot and have always told people i'm 6'0 but i always get people looking at me no way no you're not thinking i'm taller... After reading the website for a while i think a lot of it is there are so many guys out there that are in the 5'10 to 5'11 range that say they are 6'0 because it sounds better. And since so many guys do that people always look at me like i'm crazy when i say my height.

Also something i never knew was that you shrink through out the day. If you measure yourself in the morning you will be at your tallest by .5 inch to 3/4 of an inch and by 1 or 2 you will shrink down to your more normal height. So i tried it and sure enough when i woke up in the morning i was 6'0.5.

So what is your true height and do you lie about it?

And re your question: No I've never lied about my height, no reason to do so.

I say I'm 6', but I'm actually a little bit shorter than that, like 5'11" and 5/6". It really annoys me that I couldn't just be 1/6 of an inch taller.

I was smoking crazy amounts of weed at 12 years old so who knows how tall i could have been but my dad is the same height so i think at the end of the day it's all genetics.
