That's great, and it is to 3 decimal places not just 2!7.188 feet, or God is (rounding up) = 7'3" tall.
Please can you show the workings for these measurements?assuming that he is at least 10% genetically taller than the average man, that would make him 125% taller than 5.75 feet, or 7.188 feet, or God is (rounding up) = 7'3" tall.
George, I'm on the edge of my seat, how big is God?
God has got to be pretty darn impressive walking into a room at 7' 3", not as impressive as say a giraffe or an elephant but pretty impressive none the less.[George E Hammond MS physics Cape Cod MA USA]
God is 7'3" tall according to the data. This is approximally 6 inches taller than Larry Bird the famous Celtics basketball player.

Didn't think imperial measurements worked with decimal points / placesThat's great, and it is to 3 decimal places not just 2!
Seriously?!
Does SANITY count as a qualification?Or any other qualification that would qualify you to join this investigation?

Which would make it a royal (not imperial) system.That was certainly an "Imperial system" since it was invented by the Pharaohs.
Er, the Egyptian cubit varied from 20.61 to 20.83 in in length...... The ancient Egyptians used the "cubit" which was the length of your forearm.
Which would make an average Yank 9.88 to 9.98 feet tall. I doubt that somehow.... Certainly you can say that the height of the average American man is 5.75 cubits.

Even the "nominal" cubit is 18" - still rather tall at 8.6 feet.
Knew I should have kept growing when I hit 6'1, but I'll settle for being a minor god.
George, you're a numbskull.
Get over yourself.
But it's pretty clear you're not exactly bound to scientific thinking.
You're a crank that has an obsession.
An obsession that you've pursued since the usenet days.
An obsession that have clouded your thinking for far too long.
Get over yourself.
Edit to add: it's been quite a while since this could be called a widely read "academic" forum.
Didn't say could not be EXPRESSED in decimalEnglish System can be expressed in decimal
