Hardest test might be China TST for IMO team selection or some other bio/physics TST? Minor gripe but cool problem nonetheless

I hate questions like this because doing a sanity check on the answer gives you a terribly distorted human. Their torso ends up far too short and their naval would be far too low down the torso. With legs 105cm long a normally proportioned human female would be closer to 2.15 meters tall.

I'm 1.5 m tall, and when I stand my xiphoid is 1 m above the ground. I thought the man must be really tall if his legs are over a meter long.
