He actually scared me. I was just staring at the dial, when suddenly this voice goes, "Hello! What's going on here!"

BMI is poo!
The man who invented the body mass index actually invented it as a means of telling things like breeding and if a person was prone to things such as crime. It was never meant to indicate ideal weight! Random fact I know.

According to the BMI index, Most rugby players are obese!
The correct rule is you are overweight if you weigh more than your doctor
Spoil my results why don't you!

BMI is a very dodgy and dark grey area. It CAN come in useful sometimes but it's not a quality indicator of health.
BMI is a guess to be honest and gets taken a bit too seriously.
