I don't really like these charts. You can't really take something like obesity and apply it to everyone. My exact height isn't even on the chart ( about 6'5", give or take a few cenimeters) and my weight would almost certainly put me into the red. Except, they're not taking into account different body structures and composition. Sure, I'm slightly overweight, but I'm nowhere near at risk as these things make me out to be.

I may weigh almost 300lbs but this thing makes me look like I'm in the severe risk range, which I am not THAT bad.

Yeah, these charts can be incorrect. They really don't take into consideration that the person could be extremely muscular, and because muscle weighs more than fat, could be in the red for their height. It's just a rough chart, I never said it determines if your fat or not, it just gives you an idea.
