Default Measuring Vert

Is there a good way to measure running vert and standing vert without having another person measure for you?

1) Stand agaisnt a wall and strectch your hand in the air.
2) Without jumping measure the height that you can reach with your hand
3) Then take a running start or just stand straight up and jump as high as you can and put a sticker at the height you touched while jumping.
4) Measure what height you touched while jumping
5) Susbtract the height you touched whithout jumping from the height you touched while jumping.
6) The result you get should be your vertical jump.

Dont forget that a foot is 12 inches.
