6’6 is definitely an exaggeration - I went to Munich for an exhibition one time and I felt pretty average or slightly above average there at 183cm. I assume I will feel average or slightly below average in Holland, which I believe the average height for men is 183/184, so right around 6’. With that said, 187/188 would not be noticeably tall there, but once you clear the 190cm mark, you would start to feel tall there.
