Height Comparison Chart

Height Difference Calculator

Choose two people in the chart to see who is taller and the difference in centimeters and inches. You can mix centimeters with feet and inches; both heights are converted to the same unit before the difference is calculated.

A mixed-unit example

5 ft 4 in equals 162.56 cm. 6 ft equals 182.88 cm. The height difference is |182.88 − 162.56| = 20.32 cm, or exactly 8 inches. The chart uses the same scale for both figures.

With more than two people, choose any two using the comparison selectors. You can reorder the lineup without changing a person’s height.

Character Height Comparison

Switch to Original characters to build a lineup from heights you choose. The starting Scout, Keeper, and Giant are original examples at 170, 185, and 220 cm. Edit their names, heights, colors, and outlines or add more characters, up to 10.

Character mode supports 1 cm to 1,000 meters. Every character still uses one scale. A very small character will look small next to a giant; the chart does not enlarge that character separately. The site does not supply celebrity measurements, fictional character records, or character artwork.

Make a chart you can take with you

1. Enter heights

Start with two editable examples. Use centimeters or feet and inches for people, with a separate unit choice for each row. Names are optional. The chart updates when an entry is valid; an incomplete edit keeps the previous chart visible and pauses exports until you correct it.

2. Compare the figures

All figures start at zero on the same ground line. The figures are original illustrations, so their width and shape do not predict a real person’s body proportions. Use the text results as another way to read the heights.

3. Save, share, or print

Download PNG includes the complete lineup, even when you scroll sideways to see it on a phone. A share link contains the names and heights you entered, and anyone with the link can view them. Print / PDF uses your browser’s print dialog; choose A4 or Letter, preferably in landscape.

The tools save the last comparison on this device when browser storage is available. Clear the saved comparison in the tool whenever you want to start fresh.

Chart accuracy and rounding

One inch is exactly 2.54 cm and one foot is 12 inches. A height is kept separately from its displayed value, so switching units does not repeatedly round the calculation. Centimeters are normally displayed to two decimal places and feet & inches to 0.1 inch. A tiny positive difference is shown as a small amount rather than being called the same height.

The chart compares the measurements you provide. It is not a height prediction, a health assessment, a photograph, or a life-size measuring sheet.

Height comparison questions

Can I compare heights in both cm and feet?

Yes. Each person has their own unit setting. A 170 cm entry and a 6 ft entry can share the same height comparison chart.

How many people can I compare?

You can build a lineup of up to 10 people or original characters. One height can stand alone, but the difference calculator needs a second person.

Does sharing upload my chart?

The link carries the comparison in its # fragment. It does not create a server-side share record. Anyone with that complete link can restore and edit the comparison.

Can I print it at actual size?

Print and PDF show a proportional comparison, not a 1:1 measuring sheet. Use a real measuring tool when you need someone’s physical height.

Can I use my own character heights?

Yes. Original characters mode accepts your own names and measurements. It does not look up a character’s canonical height or provide copyrighted character images.
