If the 4-foot sword was “nearly” 2-thirds the height of this man, how tall was he?

5 foot, 5-inches or maybe a little more?

Did I miscalculate?

Yes, you screwed up the math.
He was 6 feet tall
(Still shorter than you though)

What were you thinking?

Dummy.

2/3 of 6 feet is 4 feet - that being nearly 2/3s of his height makes him over 6 feet - the article says 6’3”
