BMI is ridiculous because it also doesn't take into account body frame. There's a huge amount of difference between the amount of weight that someone with a 50" chest should carry and what someone with a 35" chest should carry.
I think according to BMI, I'm supposed to weigh like 180 pounds as a healthy weight. The lightest I have ever been was 210, after I spent an entire summer hiking 10-15 miles a day through the White Mountains, packing fifty pounds of tools, building trails and working with a crew that was half-vegan, so we subsisted on starvation rations.
