Use Body Parts as Reference (Hand Span, Foot Length)

Description

While varying between individuals, certain body measurements can provide rough estimates.

Recipe/Instructions

1. Know Your Measurements (Optional): For better accuracy, measure some of your own body parts beforehand with a real ruler (e.g., your hand span, foot length, knuckle length).
2. Common Approximations:
   • Hand Span (thumb tip to pinky tip): Roughly 8-9 inches for many adults.
   • Foot Length (heel to toe): Often similar to forearm length (elbow to wrist).
   • Index Finger Knuckle (first joint to tip): Approximately 1 inch.
   • Arm Span (fingertip to fingertip): Often close to your height.
3. Use the chosen body part to measure the object or distance by placing it repeatedly end-to-end.
4. Multiply the count by your known or estimated body part length.
