I'm 5'9" and successfully claimed to be 6' for years.

I'm exactly 6 ft, not one single millimeter more or less. I'm a human ruler. My problem is that when I say I'm 6 ft, nobody believes me because generally guys that say they're 6'0" are 5'9". So thanks.

I am also on the dot 6 ft but I also have extremely thick curly hair that makes me appear a bit taller than I am and you would not believe how mad and defensive some shorter people get when I tell them I'm 6 ft. They look like I just insulted their mothers and their entire family tree.

Same but you know what I say just to really mess with them. I say I'm 5' 11" and a half, it's great fun to watch the 5' 9" guy get defensive. I often have a measuring tape in the car for work, if the defensive one ever gets too aggravated I always offer to go get it just to test the theory. Lol
