Goat: 45cm

Duck: 50cm

Might as well say “shuffled emojis with random data attached”

order

I managed to force this data to sort-of work by using a pygmy goat at 40-50cm tall, and a mallard deck at 50-65cm long (even larger than the site suggests). So, sure.

But if you use a more typical domestic goat, like an Irish Goat, you get a height of 80-90cm. The length is even longer.

laden or unladen?

Also, the "running man" being bigger than a cow and about the same size as a horse...

But what really bugs me is that it simply uses some font it finds on your system, so on my slightly outdated Linux version it only shows about 70% of the emojis. I mean, if there was ever a perfect use case for webfonts, it would be this page...

The average man is taller in height than the average cow and shorter in total height than the average horse.

His cow is about the average total height of a cow at 160cm.

He has an oddly short man though at 165cm / 5'5".

And he says the horse is the same size, but that would be only 16 hands. That would be the withers size of an average horse, but the total height of only a pony.

Arm: 30cm. I think my arm is bigger than that. And fire: 40cm. This seems somewhat arbitrary lol

Let's play picky:

In anatomy, the arm is the part between the elbow and the shoulder. Below the elbow is the forearm.

With that in mind, 30cm for the arm is definitively a sound measure... and the name of the emoji is wrong. On every phone, keyboard and app.

tl;dr; what is commonly called arm is in fact arm + forearm. Don't blame the author for being correct.

Well it says "to scale" not "to realistic scale" so it could be a made-up scale

Yeah my mouth isn't 15cm/6in wide, definitely around half that
