How high is Guan Yu's nine feet tall?

In fact, there are many legends about Guan Yu among the people. In many novels or ancient books, it is recorded that Guan Yu is nine feet long. One foot in ancient times was about 33.33 cm now. According to this ratio, Guan Yu's height is more than three meters. This is obviously an exaggeration. You know, the height of the giant Yao Ming is about 2.2 meters.

But now many people are questioning whether an ancient foot is 33.33 cm now, because a ruler was unearthed in an ancient tomb in Luoyang. According to expert analysis, this ruler should be an artifact of the Han Dynasty. According to some scales on this ruler, the distance of one foot should be about 23.3 cm. According to this standard, Guan Yu, who is 9 feet tall, is about 2. 1 meter.

Judging from the height of 2. 1 m, Guan Yu must be a big man in ancient times, and even in modern times, he should be outstanding. Coupled with Guan Yu's unique style, there will be more records in the history books. You know, if you walk down the street with a red face and a big beard, the rate of turning your head should be very high. If this shape is modern, it must be a non-mainstream shape. From this point, we can also see that Mr. Guan is indeed a person with great personality.

After following Liu Bei, Guan Yu gradually became a generation of generals with his height advantage and amazing arm strength. Why is Guan Yu's arm strength amazing? That's because the weight of the dragon crescent moon blade used by Guan Yu reached an astonishing 280 Jin, and ordinary people simply couldn't pick up this weapon, let alone use it on the battlefield.
