I have never had anyone tell me I look like Spielberg before. All of a sudden I hear this and I don't know what to think. I don't think I look like him at all. I'm 6'4". [Spielberg is about 5'10".] I'm English and he's Jewish. It's silly.

Standard 6ft4 in my book, rubbish posture though

@Editor Rob: I would definitely place Padalecki in that category. Baldwin may well be based on the difference with Levi
Canson said on 21/Jan/23
@Editor Rob: would you say he’s a guy who doesn’t dip under 6’4 at his normal low? Or is this listing more of a lunchtime?
Editor Rob
To me, he is very similar to guys like Adam Baldwin and Padalecki in person, who are classical 6ft 4 men.

He likely still measures 6ft 4 afternoon.
Slamo said on 18/Jan/23
Actually looks over 6-4. 6-4 minimum
Jesica said on 21/Nov/22
Gives me the initial impression of 6'5, but that's due to his hair. He's a legit 6'4.
Canson said on 23/Jun/22
He’s a lanky 6’4 guy but a very legit one. Doubt he dips below it by more than 1/8” if he does
Daniel Lee said on 23/Jun/22
Illusion of about 6'5 dude.
Andrey200 said on 24/May/22
One of the tallest looking 193 listed people on this site
Robbe said on 17/May/22
Looked huge in Gently next to Martin Shaw. Minimum 6'4.
Andrey200 said on 12/May/22
At least a solid 193
Tech noir said on 30/Apr/22
Looks near 6-5 imo
electrotelepathy said on 31/Oct/20
Just say this guy on an episode of Midsomer Murders. He was conspicuously tall and we commented that he looked like a giant. Comfortably 6ft 4, probably a little bit over.

Great picture - nice and friendly! - depicting two Scottish guys, one of whom is of average height and the other very tall indeed.

6ft4 😁👍
OriginalAnon said on 14/Apr/20
He looks a solid 193cm.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 30/Nov/19
@ Nik - He has every reason to be honest!

6ft4. 🗼🐜🙄
Nik Ashton said on 29/Sep/19
He’s very honest!
Zampo said on 23/Oct/18
Before I read the comments below. I was thinking "nothing less than 192 cm". So with Christian on this one.

No less than 192cm

@ROB
my bad , I should have said SHORTER ... sorry
184guy2 said on 5/Oct/18
Lol Rob , he looks taller beside you 5'7 friend than with you
Editor Rob
And so my photo is better for showing the height difference 🙂
Jason 193 said on 26/Jan/18
192cm with very puffy hair.
Anonymous said on 8/Jan/18
6'4.25 in prime, not perfect posture in pic and is bordering 6'4. when standing up straight in prime at least more than the 0.25 inch IMO.
Bobby said on 18/Dec/17
@S.J.H, not necessarily. Watson describes Holmes on one occasion as being rather over six feet in length. This means that Sherlock Holmes was a minimum of 6'1-2. So a 6'4 actor is not all that out of the question.
Sandra Regina Rissoni Horita said on 19/Sep/17
He's really very tall!! I'm only 5'3"... 😨
S.J.H said on 13/Jun/17
Def too tall for the role of playing young Sherlock Holmes in 1985. 6'3-6'3.5
World Citizen said on 10/Jun/17
Looks believable, but no higher than that.
berta said on 4/May/17
i think this guys hair makes him look 1,5 cm taller than he is. i think he is 193 with chanse of being just under it
Sandy Cowell said on 10/Apr/17
I'm interrupting my visit to the 'Height Request' page to leave a comment for this guy as he was peeping out at me as a 'random celeb' and I thought, "Whoa, he's a big boy! Who is he?"
I should recognize him from 'Lock,Stock..' but I don't. Having said that, and as I had a second perusal, his face does ring vaguely familiar - as does his big, gangly frame!
I'll go along with 6ft4!
Peter 179cm said on 18/Nov/16
I'm guessing about 192cm,so around 6'3.5 range.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Sep/16
Rob, who looked taller this guy or Hasselhoff?
Editor Rob
both very similar I'd say in person.
Leo said on 27/May/16
The Storyteller (giant version)
Peterson188cm said on 16/Feb/16
Looks 6ft 4.5in (194 cm).
Emil 182-183 cm said on 8/Jul/15
@Rob
Since Nicholas Rowe was supposedly 6'0 at 19, I guess that there's still hope for Big G and I?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 28/Feb/15
Rob, is a fraction under or over 6ft4 possible for Rowe?
Editor Rob
I don't think he'd be over it.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Feb/15
He does look a solid 6ft4
Mitch 185.8cm said on 9/Feb/15
looks 6'5 with rob
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Jan/15
Grew 4in between 19-20!
Editor Rob
I think he was already this height by the time he was 18 as that's the range he filmed Sherlock Holmes and looked very tall in that.
Judd said on 20/Dec/14
Legit 6'4" with rob
Mike said on 11/Dec/14
More chance of beeing 6ft 4.25 than 6ft 3.75.
Height182 said on 3/Dec/14
Rob, any chance of him being slightly under 6'4''?
Editor Rob
there's a chance yes, but I think he still is near enough it
A6'1Guy said on 16/Nov/14
Sean, that does not mean you "grew", you shrink as the day goes on... You could have measured yourself 6'0 (72 inches) in the evening and then 4 years later you measured 6'1 (73 inches) in the morning, I doubt you grew, but you never know.
Sean73 said on 12/Nov/14
Yeah,people defo grow after 18 yrs old.When i turned 18 i was a flat 6 foot.At 22 i measured 73' flat at a 3pm doctor visit.Go figure.
Crypto139 said on 25/Oct/14
Yeah I will say I have heard the term "6 foot guy" referred to a guy that was 6 feet 3. So it can happen.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Oct/14
@Emmett

You're right it can be interpreted differently. A "six footer" doesn't necessarily always apply to someone whose 6ft(183cm). It can be used to describe someone whose up to 2-3in over the mark.
Emmett said on 21/Oct/14
I see '6ft' listings all the time that really just mean 'over 6ft'.
Daniel said on 17/Oct/14
I don't know why people say that men can't grow taller after 18. I'm 21 and still growing. I was 5'9 last year and 5'11 now.
Tallguy said on 15/Aug/14
I just wanted to say that it's indeed possible for someone to grow more after age 18. Obviously, it's not going to be that much but you can still grow about 1 inch or more. I am saying this based on personal experience as I also grew a lot more since I was 18. I was about 6 feet (182-184, depending on the time of day) when I was 18, or 19, then at age 23 I was just a little under 6'2( about 184-187 barefooted), and after that, now at age 26 I am about 188-191cm (6'2"-6'3"). So I can safely say that it's indeed possible for someone to grow after age 18, specially men. I also noticed that it helps a lot to a good balance diet, stretching your back, and a having a good night sleep, as well as drinking lots of milk as your bones needs this source of calcium in order for you to grow!
DrummerBoy said on 15/Aug/14
1" or more of growth can definitely happen even after a person's late teen years. I hit 6'0" at the start halfway through my senior year when I was 17, and I stayed the same until around six months ago, when I started growing again. I am now a strong 6'1" at 19, and my doctor says I may yet grow another inch after seeing my x-ray. My maternal uncle grew three inches during college, but he only got to 5'10.5".
Amaze said on 7/Aug/14
4 inches after 19???? At 19 most if not all males are fully developed who have finished puberty. 1-2cm is even rare but 10cm??? Maybe a misquote, but whatever his family/friends must have been shocked. I do think that his old height was better though.
avi said on 6/Aug/14
I think the 19 quote is bs. It was misquoted like infomdb does at times. Probably grew an inch.
KROC said on 2/Aug/14
Well I grew significantly after I was 19. I didn't reach my full height until I was 22. My father didn't reach his full height until he was 22-23. My father is 6'7, I'm 6'5.
Sam said on 31/Jul/14
His height was clearly under-listed back when he was 19...I don't think anyone grows an extra 4 inches after 19 unless they have a growth disorder.
Joe257 said on 30/Jul/14
From the above picture I think that Nicholas Rowe might be 6'2.5" or a Weak 6'3" (if he stands straight)! After reading the description I got that Mr. Rowe grew 4 inches taller after 19!? And apparently he grew that much in only a year or two! Rob, is this normal or is this dude just a freak of nature!? I grew only 1/2 inch after 19... :(
Editor Rob
I really don't know if he did grow a big amount at 19 or not, it was just a quote I saw and thought worth including.
Mathew said on 29/Jul/14
First impression was 6'4"-ish. But upon further inspection, definitely doesn't look like a legit 6'4" in the picture with the guy who is an inch shorter than Rob. Not so sure on this guy.
Realists said on 29/Jul/14
Seems right. A flat 6'4 very lean figure.
Andrea said on 27/Jul/14
He's dropping, you're dropping so there's probably not much difference in posture. And no, he does not look at least 6'4 or even 6'4.5 as some say here... He looks no more than a "weak" 6'4! Wouldn't surprise me if he measured 6'3.5, just basing on this picture, because i don't even know who he is...
SAK said on 27/Jul/14
Rob maybe slouching. But Rowe isn't exactly standing up straight himself. He is easily 6'4. And this looks like a dwarfing difference.
Editor Rob
I am dropping about an inch on purpose of course because I thought he would drop between 0.5-1 inch based on watching him with others in the queue and I am always trying to get the best photo I can :)

Rowe with con friend...who is an inch smaller than me.
Nunez said on 26/Jul/14
Rob is slouching too you know.
Arch Stanton said on 26/Jul/14
Typo on described BTW..
Arch Stanton said on 26/Jul/14
Rob I'm guessing with his hairstyle and thin build he could probably look near 6 ft 5 to some people?
Editor Rob
I don't think they would, assuming they knew a measured 6ft 5 man.
Arch Stanton said on 26/Jul/14
Saw the photo advert at the side and my first thought was 6'5.5-6'6". The hair and the lean and Rob's poor posture gave the illusion of it at first!! Looks clearly minimum 6'4" anyway.
Connor 183cm said on 25/Jul/14
I agree Alex he's a very decent 6ft 4 guy, he would look that tall in the pic with Rob if not for the slouching, from the slouch looks more 6ft 3 range when stood straight definetly 6ft 4, Rob is slouching a little too making him look only 5ft 7-7.5 (dont worry Rob im not saying you are under 5ft 8 lol).
Alex 6'0 said on 25/Jul/14
Comparing this picture of Rob and Joe Manganiello it looks close actually. This guy does look 6'4 making Joe more 6'4.5 Id say
Alex 6'0 said on 25/Jul/14
Looks legit 6'4
Andrea said on 25/Jul/14
Doesn't look a solid 6'4 here... Maybe a weak one? Rob are you standing at your tallest?
Lonestar said on 25/Jul/14
Rob slouch. This guy is 6"4 in shoes
Hypado said on 24/Jul/14
Nicholas Rowe's height is 6ft 4in (193 cm)

Looks this in this PHOTO.
yenz said on 24/Jul/14
Rob you're on a trend of listing tall guys aye
Sam said on 24/Jul/14
Still looks a lot like he did back in Young Sherlock, he looks like he could be 6'3"-6'4" range IMO.
James B said on 24/Jul/14
Looks 6'4.5 with rob
Emil 182.5 cm said on 24/Jul/14
So he grew 4 inches after 19? Geez
Connor 183cm said on 24/Jul/14
He looks a legit 6ft 4, but as im a 6ft 19 year old i hope i dont end up being 6ft 4 lol.
Anonymous said on 3/Feb/07

Strange he grew 4 inches after 19. Well, that's how it is
