I posted a couple of days ago that the police should confirm the methodology they used, and the FBI at the least reviewed, to get that estimate. I'm also agreeing with I believe your call to get an independent verification. It is beyond comprehension that the height could be that of the average male and no one in law enforcement knows it.
I defer to you and the Kesse's on the recognization of someone close from the picture. I was just saying there's not much to recognize, but certainly it's out there and if someone can recognize it, I hope they will call (and collect a reward I would hope).
But if the height is off by even a couple of inches, so that it could be a 5'7" person, then the police need to act quickly and confirm or revise their information.

In one of the video's I posted, it shows how LE estimated the height.
LE had one person next to the camera in the perch of the poolhouse holding a rope.
LE extended the rope down to the gate, and through to the second officer who was standing next to a short, female officer.
The female officer was standing in a "stance" similar to the POI, and the one LE held the rope in one hand, and a large, tall board, which listed heights in black lettering.
If you want, I will do some research and find the link.
I don't know however, if this was checked using lasers, or if an independent test was done. All I witnessed was this one test, which is on the video.
As for recognizing the video. You are right, it is very difficult to recognize whomever it is. I agree. I just think that if it was someone very close to me, I probably could recognize them, if I suspected them, and I had the right height, and I knew they were working or living in the area.

Yes, I agree it is difficult to believe the POI is of average height and LE missed it. However, more and more people keep on posting that they are suspicious of the height. Considering this case is ice cold, why not triple or quadruple check it with lasers or a prof. surveyor.
