    73.7 inches is 2 standard deviations above the mean of 68.9 inches. The empirical rule states that 95% of the data for a normal distribution falls within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The tails on both ends account for the remaining 5%. Symmetry of the distribution then suggests that 2.5% of men are taller than 73.7 inches.
