What does a height difference of 2 inches look like?
A difference of 2 inches is noticeable when the two stand together: the top of the shorter person's head reaches about the taller person's forehead. From a distance it is easy to miss, and ordinary shoes (2–3 cm) can hide part of it.
In everyday terms, 5.1 cm is about the length of the short side of a credit card (5.4 cm).
Shoes change what you see. If only one person wears shoes that add about 2.5 cm, the visible gap becomes roughly 2.6 cm or 7.6 cm, depending on who is wearing them.
