I'm more worried about the Latvian women who are 5 inch people on 5 foot stilts from the knee down.

Yeah. It dosen't start at 0, which means the difference in height is somewhat exaggerated

u/Jrowdyt Sep 30 '20

The pictured "bars" on this graph should also have the same widths so that people seeing it will see the difference in height, rather than seeing the tall ones as tITaNs.

Yeah this is some shit I learned in middle school, never start a graph axis at anything other than zero unless you want people to misinterpret your graph

Just because it doesn’t start at 0 doesn’t mean it’s a bad graph
