Default Website with photos & stats of real people?

Does anyone know the URL of that site that has user-contributed photos along with heights and weights?

Thanks!

Dangit-I need to have 25 posts to my name before I can post links. Argh

Go to Flickr, and tack on

/photos/77367764@N00/sets/72157602199008819/

after the .com.

Wow- what an inaccurate way to keep track of your health BMI is! Some of those people seemed perfectly proportioned at both ends of the BMI spectrum- depending on their fitness and bone structure. I'll stick with percent body fat, thanks!

It's interesting, though, isn't it?

Thanks for the link, j45rpm! Actually, there's another one with thumbnails sorted by height and gender. It's a blog. I know I've seen the link posted on 3FC before, but I can't figure out a good search phrase.

If I find it, I'll post it here.

Thanks!

Great links. It shows me that what I've set my goal weight at looks about right. Those are very informative!

I wonder if they are continuing to add more pics. I wish there was more in my 5 foot category. Very, very, very interesting!

Wow . . . quite an eye opener. It does really make you see that BMI really isn't something to base my goal weight on . . . . I don't want to be unhealthy but I don't want to lose muscle or my curve, i don't know if a 'normal' BMI will allow for both, hmmmm.
