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.
Why do Samoan people wear sarongs?
Hang on a second... Where have you seen a Samoan wearing a SHEET? The traditional wear for males are their "ie faitaga" which is a lavalava. Is that what you mean? If so, then just like how so many other countries have their traditional attire, so do we.
Sun = La (Drag the "A" sound a little...so it sounds as if you're saying "Laaa"...And its A for artichoke, not A for ant)
