its "feet", then the grammar thing (an apostrophy?, yes I fail), then "inches"

12 inches = 1 foot

1 inch = 2.5 cm

EDIT: Gah! He even said it was an apostophy in his quote!

I'm in the 5'9"-5'10" range(178 cm-182 cm for all you non-Americans) . Which, by most standards is rather average. However, in my group of friends, I'm the tallest one there haha
