BMI is somewhat useful in my opinion.
Yes it does not correct for muscle mass or bone density, but it is on average a good predictor for heart disease and other disease for the average person. Obviously, athletes and weight lifters shouldn't pay much attention to BMI, but if you're 5'7", 200lbs and you are sedentary... your BMI would reflect somewhat of an accurate measurement of your risk for heart disease or other diseases.

There are not many simple objective measures for health, so BMI is the quickest and easiest measurement.

Below average (lower than 86% of males 15-29 in Canada)
Below average (lower than 60% of males 15-29 in the World)

If everyone in the world had the same BMI as you, it would remove 28,969,344 tonnes from the total weight of the world's population

The problem with this thing is it doesn't consider if your weight is from muscle or fat. In other words its pretty useless.

That's because you put in 164 kilograms instead of lbs.
