To find out how tall an amount of inches is in feet, you can divide the number by twelve. This works out to show that sixty inches is accurately five feet tall (60 ÷ 12 = 5); for an adult, this is quite short, but by no means a deformity. Human height depends on all sorts of factors, age being the most obvious, but gender, race, upbringing and genetics, and diet all have an effect. Different heights have both advantages and disadvantages. For example, in certain sports being tall might be a good thing, such as rugby, but being shorter might be better in others, like artistic gymnastics or horse racing. In centimetres, sixty inches is about 152.4cm, so a bit over one and a half metres tall.
