FMA: GUESS ED'S HIGHT!!!

[Lonomi]

We all know and love the short Ed Elric, but how tall is he actually. Take your guess. We'll never know for sure...

I don't think he'll ever tell us the truth...

 

[my dog ate my sanity]

hmmmm ... donno who he is ... but I'll say um ...about as tall as an overdeveloped chimpanzee.  

[Tenshi the Lost]

...um.... somewhere between 4'3" and 4'8"?  

[my dog ate my sanity]

fine then ... I'll change mine ... 4' ..... there's some 4' 9th and 10th graders in my school eek  

[Howler Monkays874]

I think I might know how tall he actually is

 

[my dog ate my sanity]

:O ... tell us oh great one!!!  

[Lonomi]

I'm guessing that he even shorter than me, even though he's 16 & I'm only 13...  

[Howler Monkays874]

He's like 5 ft 5 3nodding seriously

OH MY GOD I KNOW THIS ONE!!!

I ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT HIS REAL HEIGHT WOULD BE!!!

Or at least a VERY educated and mathematically assumed guess.

Remember, in the back of volume 2 of the Manga, the author made this little pun...

Al asked Ed what his total height is because the author was getting a lot of letters asking 'How tall is Edward anyways?'

Ed replied "I think my total height is 165cm...' (Not that openly...Lots of pausing before hand)

And so if you take the following diagram, it shows A measurement of 'Body Height' and 'Total height'

His Body height is that plus his antenna and platform shoes...

Then I randomly found this site (It's called Serpents Cross but I don't know the URL, wanan see it search Serpents Cross on Google) and they go through a long math equation and end up with roughly the result:

143cm.

sweatdrop I know...I'm a total nerd...

But that would probably be the cloest thing.

Or we could find a life-size manequin and measure it! lol 3nodding  

[Lonomi]

YAY! Maybe some day we might be able to get him to admit it!  

[Super_Chihuahua]

YAY!!!

*Applause*  

[my dog ate my sanity]

So what's 143 cm in feet? ... Yaya, I know, I'm Canadian, and the metric system and all ... but I measure height in feet ... and I'm not good at conversion.  

[Lonomi]

it's 55.8 inches, which is 4 feet and 7.8 inches. 3nodding I found a cm-to-inches converter. 3nodding

 

[Super_Chihuahua]

I'm Canadian too...And I SUCK at conversion sweatdrop I just think 1 1/2 meters, hahahaa....

Then I go and get a meter stick and look at it and 'Oh my...'  

[Super_Chihuahua]

OH MY!!!

I just went and looked at my little chart for height that's in my closet (had it since I was yay high) and looked at it and...and...

ED'S THE SAME HEIGHT I WAS WHEN I WAS TEN YEARS OLD!!! ED IS ONLY AS TALL AS A TEN YEAR OLD!

But, if you add the shoes and antenna, he's about...as tall as I am now...

Aw, man, I really AM short!!!

oh wait, scratch that. we're measuring the antenna, not Ed's head. yay I'm not short!

But that antenna must be like...10cm long!!
