I'm skinny as hell, about 6 foot 2.
But for some strange reason i weigh about 83 kilos. Everyone assumes i weigh less. anybody have any idea why i weigh so much for my build?

maybe you have a little muscle but lack of any fat makes it look like your skinny. although I'm 6ft 1 and weigh 75kg so i have no idea how you have that much extra weight.

Half asian and that still can't constitute the 8 kilos of weight can it?
could it be bone?

If you're not a some kind of freak of nature with double density bones, the extra kilos are something else. Don't worry too much about what the scale says. If you look healthy, chances are good you are.

Disregard that, do more squats or something.

I'm 5'9" and weigh 190 lbs. When I ask people to guess how much I weigh, they usually say 150-160.

When I asked about it in my last checkup, my doctor said that muscle and bone density causes a lot of variation. Though, I have no idea how it would account for that much weight. It's the mystery of my existence.

It's about right. A lot of celebrities and other tall people lie about their weight, and normal weights are skewed from about 6 foot onwards because at the time of creating the normal weight chart, they just didn't have sufficient information to correctly calibrate the taller heights.
