Have you ever measured your height in supine position?
If you haven’t, let’s compare your height in supine and erect position!
My daughter and I measured our height in supine and erect position.
My daughter’s height
Erect: 113.0 cm, Supine: 115.0 cm
My height
Erect: 170.5 cm, Supine: 172.5 cm
Awesome! Our height increased by 2.0 cm in supine position.
This result is not unusual if you learned in the field of medicine.
Here is a tip.
Your intervertebral disc works like a sponge.
Astronauts wear their spacesuits whose size is larger than their clothes,
because their height increases in the field of zero gravity.
Hope you and your kids enjoy the exam.
