How tall is an average Samoan?

I looked it up and I couldn't find it, same story for Tongans and Maoris they are similar people.

But on the american television show "Deadliest Warrior" It said Maoris are 6 foot 2 inches on average.

I also looked at Samoan sports men from wrestling rugby and football and it appears between 6-foot and 6-foot-4. Since sportsmen have healthier diets and good amounts of exercise resulting in them being taller.

So in conclusion a safe estimate for be 5-foot-11 for an average male Samoan(Many Samoans live in Australia and the average height in Australia is 5-foot-10.5).

Since Samoans are renowned for being tall 5 ft 11 is logical since it 4 inches above global average male height.

Samoan women are probably 4.5 to 5 inches shorter.
