Here are some examples of body dimensions for a man of average height. * Your knee is about 50cm above the ground. * Your waist is about a metre above the ground. * The top of your chest is about 1.5 metres above the ground. * An average height for a man is about 1.75m and about 1.65m for a woman. * Your bare foot is about 25cm in length. * Your shoe is about 30cm in length. * The length of one step is about 75cm. * Four steps is about 3 metres. * If you walk at a reasonably brisk pace, your stride will lengthen to about 80cm. * If you walk at this pace for a minute you will cover about 100 metres. * 10 minutes at this page will take you about a kilometre.
I hope that these measures are useful. Best wishes, Michael Glass
