According to foreign media reports on October 29, artist Nicklay Lamm made and analyzed a virtual model for men from all countries based on the average height, weight and body mass index of men from all countries.
People usually think that Australian men are tall, thin and well-proportioned, but a new study shows that this view is inaccurate. In fact, the average height of Australian men is 175.6 cm, the average weight is 85.9 kg, and the body mass index is 27. They are in the overweight level, and will soon enter the obesity level. Not every Australian male has the charming figure of Hugh Jackman, a local male star. Research results show that obesity has become a health threat in Australia, which increases the risk of heart disease, diabetes and hypertension. However, Australian men are still thinner than American men. The body mass index of American men is 29, and the average height is 176.4 cm. Japanese men are the healthiest, with a body mass index of 23; The average height of Dutch men is 183.3 cm, and the body mass index is 25.2; The average height of French men is 174.4 cm, and the body mass index is 25.5.
A study by the National Academy of Sciences of the United States shows that the "super muscular man" popular in Hollywood may not be attractive in some cultures. For example, in South Africa, the feminized men are more attractive.
Last year, Nicholas Lalam used 3D printing, Photoshop and other technologies to produce a realistic Barbie doll, and compared the Barbie doll made according to the average size of American women with the real Barbie doll. Compared with the real person's figure, Barbie's figure ratio is very incongruous, and the body mass index is only 16.24, just like an anorexic patient. He said that Barbie dolls may have a negative impact on young women.
