How to measure 193 cm accurately at home

If you want to check whether you really are 193 cm, a careful home measurement is accurate to within about half a centimeter:

1. Measure in the morning, barefoot, standing on a hard floor rather than carpet.
2. Stand with your heels, buttocks, shoulders and the back of your head touching a wall, and look straight ahead.
3. Have someone rest a hardcover book or a set square flat on your head, square against the wall, and mark the wall underneath it.
4. Measure from the floor to the mark with a metal tape, and repeat two or three times; use the average.
