Actually the fingertip to fingertip measurement (on someone of normal proportions) is the same as their height
Oh my... I've always known I'm not "someone of normal proportions", but I didn't know by just how much I was off the charts... :) Since childhood I've often been the recipient of witty gems such as: "can you tie your shoes while standing at attention?" And: "you confirm that Darwin's theory of the origin of the species was correct".
My hand-span (fingertip to fingertip) is tape-measure (5ft)+ 7.5". Even before I started shrinking with age, I was never taller than 5ft, 2.5"... I guess I'd be your preferred textile seller, for as long as I managed to survive on negative income :)
