Which Race has the Highest BMI?

[Fammaden]

Keep in mind the BMI formula is Body Mass Index = Weight / Height-squared.

Ogres are nine feet tall, trolls eight, hum/barb/eru are six, half elf 5'6", wood/dark/high elves five, dwarf four, halfling and gnome three.

Please post your reasoning for your pick.

Many people criticize BMI for not taking into account people with very low body fat percentage vs. muscle as muscle is pretty heavy, so you can account for that in your estimations.

I’d say that if we are talking BMI, it has to be ogre with dwarves being a close second. They have a similar silhouette, but ogres look like they have a bigger gut and thicker arms. Trolls have a big gut and a booty, but they have skinnier arms and legs.

But it evens out when you factor in their foreheads...

i vote troll.

they seem way more fatty (as their rSTRNG is lower than ogres)

i assume ogres are mostly muscle.

i think BMI's account for muscle mass (when they pinch your skin with that machine/device when you get your BMI)

Yup ... as long as we're not talking about the travesty of a model that was the Luclin Troll ...

I’m pretty sure BMI is a measurement based only upon height and weight, and one of its biggest critiques is that it doesn’t account for muscle very well.
