There's always a high correlation between body and arm length... Heh; I knew you would go there. So if all you need is statistics, which is available for height as well as all else including standard deviations etc., why ask about heights of different individual persons? By asking about individual persons, you are implicitly acknowledging the significance of individual specifics and variability; you can't have it both ways - unless this is just trolling. Regardless, you are also wrong about what you claim anyway - because you misunderstood what the paper says. They actually said (you even highlighted it(!)) that the correlation is highly significant (meaning high confidence that it is distinguishable from chance happenings); the correlation itself is not high. Here's a sample of what is actually in the paper; see these clouds of dots with a straight line through them? Now look at the dots along any given height, as well as pick a dot value and look to see at how many different heights it occurs at. These are fairly low correlations, high variability; even though it is highly significant that the line's slope is positive. Even in the video you posted of Grisha he basically disproves you about height's lock on body proportions - in answering about his height (people thinking he is really tall), he says he has a long torso for his height - you clearly have watched that answer re: height, and yet here you are....
