The FiboBelly ratio is the ratio of your height in centimeters divided by the height of your belly button (your height divided by the long measure in the diagram). A well circulated myth is that this ratio is, on average, the golden ratio Φ = 1+5 2 . Retain four face digits in your answers! Enter data carefully, double check your data entry!

Note: The relationship above is not statistically significant - the sample size is far too small. Over a larger sample the variables relate randomly at a given age. For the purposes of this test the sample size was kept small.
