**Well, on reading up a bit more (and I could be completely wrong in this), I think the measuerments were taken from the floor. So the slight difference in stature and eye height would seem to be about right. The other thing I read up on is that the tables generally show you the 95th percentile**.

I did find another table that shows the 50th percentile, but again, no references to how the measurements were done. Well, maybe it does. It shows seated and standing. Bonus is that it also shows a bit of the 95th percentile. Maybe it would work better for you?

Couple more links that might be of interest.

Scroll down to where you see the head sketches. There's a sample file you can download to go with the illustration. I don't have Excel.

And this one is just some interesting reading about the tables themselves.

Maybe these will help. If not, then I'm definitely out of my league here. grin
