Wait - I am 6' tall, and weigh 215 lbs. BMI, by the formula above, kg/m^2, = (215/2.2)/(72/39)^2~53

So, I have a BMI of 53, and should be dead, according to this article.

I am the dood on the right, below - the one on the left is my father.

Picture's worth a thousand words, eh?

Complete junk science.

Nice deck.

Its in the genes. Either you got it or you don't.

I think you might want to recalculate your BMI. There is no way you'll have a BMI of 53 if you're 6' and 215 lbs. Going by my own stats, I'd say you're high 20s, a little overweight by BMI standards, but nothing much to worry about.

Reminds me of a joke...

When he was 98, George Burns was asked in an interview what his doctor thought of his lifestyle:

Interviewer: Mr. Burns, is it true that you smoke?

George Burns: I smoke 10 to 15 cigars a day, at my age I have to hold on to something.

I: Is it true that you drink?

GB: I will have 3 or 4 martinis a day.

I: Is it true that you date women less than half your age?

GB: Two or three at a time, and sometimes, they're much younger than that!

I: Does your doctor approve of your lifestyle?

GB: No, my doctor's dead!

Your 29.2 which is overweight and near obesity.

[SamAdams76]

Your BMI is actually 29. You goofed on the formula.
