Well, it's already obvious to anyone else that I made a fool of myself here. Apparently, the ' denotes a foot and the " denotes an inch.
Geeez, rub it in, will you?
(Also, this is something you can bring up in that stupidest question thread to draw attention away from americans: Stocken: Uhm, so " denotes a foot then?) π
(And I never questioned that 12 foot tall estimate. There. Saved a little face at least.)
