Batbrat....So, IF it is a female, it would be a quite tall female.....even after subtracting helmet height from the head and however thick the boots are? So, maybe 5 feet 8 inches? JMO
I accounted for the helmet and shoe soles. Keep in mind, the original surveillance footage is very distorted from a wide-angle lens perspective, especially around the outer edges of the frame. My only digital lens-correction is a filter setting in Photoshop, so I'm unsure of it's accuracy. Because of that, I isolated the frame with the least amount of lens distortion variation between the subject and a door (which I used for scale), and the closest perspective distance. Even with minor lens correction, the image is still distorted due to the top-down perspective of the camera, which is not something you can correct in a 2D image, so I left that as is. My measurements, based on a standard commercial door hardware installation of 950-1000mm gives me somewhere between 1890 and 1900mm in height overall, or 1800 and 1820mm in height subtracting around 2-3 inches for helmet and shoe soles.
I want to make sure folks here know that I'm not an expert in image analysis. I do not have access to the actual scene, nor the experience and technology the LE image lab specialists have. This was made just for my own curiosity. I don't know the actual door hardware measurements in that church, nor am I confident with my software's lens correction capabilities, so I could very well be way off in my estimates. Hopefully we'll eventually find out just how much.
