Just wanted to show y'all I'm doing my #human #biology #research before I write things, and since I'm going into #micro / #macro #TF stuff with the #HardScifi of #Modders, I need to know what natural biology is actually capable of in order to build a plausible explanation...
...so I'm finding out how short or tall a human can be without issues.
The height for "Dwarfism" is under 1.5 meters (5 ft), though I don't think that's very short. Simone Biles is well under that. Poking around, I'm seeing people saying 1.25 m (4 ft), so let's say that's a good start.
The record holder for shortest woman is Jyoti Amge, a 31 year old indian actress who is 62.8 cm (2 ft) tall, and the record holder for shortest man was Chandra Dangi, a Nepalese weaver who lived to 75, at 54.6 cm (1 ft 9in) tall. He could walk and survived 75 years, so I assume there was no life-threatening complication, which would mean a human only needs to be about half a meter tall to be "healthy"...
