Stature (standing height)
Adults: 5th % 50th 95th
Males 5′ 3⁵⁄₈″
162㎝
5′ 8¹⁄₄″
173㎝
6′ ³⁄₄″
185㎝
Females 4′ 11″

Eye height (standing)
Adults: 5th % 50th 95th
Males 5′ ³⁄₄″
154㎝
5′ 4³⁄₄″
164㎝
5′ 8⁵⁄₈″
174㎝
Females 4′ 9¹⁄₄″

166㎝

When people stand normally (i.e., with some slump), their eye height lowers by about 1.6 in (4.1 cm) for males and by about 1.2 in (3.0 cm) for females.

Extrapolating from the data, male/female eye height is ∼95%/∼97% of stature.

Body width (including arms)
Adults: 5th % 50th 95th
Males 18.8″ 20.9″ 22.8″
Females 57.3″ 60.3″ 65.3″
Sitting height
Adults: 5th % 50th 95th
Males 33.2″ 35.7″ 38.0″
Females 30.9″ 33.4″ 35.7″
