Am I tall?

I was standing with a crowd of people, and I noticed that I was taller than 50% of them. Males and females! I kept thinking wtf
. I am not wearing heels and I am that much taller? If I can see a guy’s balding scalp or a girl’s roots, then we got our selves a problem. I don’t consider my self tall. I am 5’7″ or 170cm. That is NOT tall by any means, but is it?
So I looked at some worldly statistics from our semi-trusted source from Wikipedia, and the numbers were a bit on the low side. Too low!
Therefore, my curiosity itch has spurred on me, and I WANT a better answer. FEMALES! How tall are you (without heels)? MALES! How tall are you?
