This will probably sound pretty weird, but I need to know how big your rib cage is. In short, it's for an art project.

I'd like the approximate width and height (I'm measuring height from the bottom - 9th rib if you want to get fancy - up to the top of the collar bone). Btw, I'm talking bone measurements, not including skin or fat, so don't get self-conscious :). I'm about 11" wide and 14" tall.

I know this is really out there, but any replies will be a big help.

Edit: I should add that I'm only looking for full grown adult measurements. I'm not hating on the 13 year olds in here, it's just what the project calls for. Unless of course you're a really big 13 year old. Thanks.
