burby on Sylvester Stallone
Saw Copland again yesterday, guess what I saw? An under 5'9" Stallone. Maybe Harvey Keitel is 5'9"? I can't believe there are people here who think this guy is 5'10", especially after that Rome photo with Sly in regular shoes. Maybe Jen really was in NYC sandals.......
Taelyn on Kristen Stewart

Anonymous you should stop getting carried away with these "official listings" your on about. Tom Cruise got listed as 5' 10" for ages did that "official listing" make him 5' 10", no it did not. That is why this site exists - to get the REAL heights.
Look at pictures of kaka with beckham who is 5' 11.5", there is more than 1.5 inches there and beckham is definately that height so kaka must be taller.
And to say c.ronaldo is 5' 11.5" is laughable.
My estimates are:
C. Ronaldo - 186.5cm
Kaka - 189cm
Rotfl! Saw Kakā many times, no way he's 1,89. Football players don't get measured, they just got listed at the height they claim. Moreover, you can see Kakā looking just as tall as Gerrard (6'0") next to him in HUNDREDS of photos. Here you have two of them:

Patrick on Tom Welling
Why not 6'? No, better: Tom is about 5'7 and with angles and one foot lifts he appears as he does in the show for years. I think that reason is getting away from this site sometimes! No comment.
Patrick on John Wayne
Bob H. i invite you to refer again to my 29/Oct/09 comment: have you sand in your eyes or do you "want" to shorten, reduce, lower the Duke? Frankly, the heads sizes prove this picture cannot serve as refrence. Period.

rob89 on William Mapother
Looks 6' flat to me in this pic. BTW i thought he was more like 6'3 from watching lost, he looked tall and skinny and seemed taller than 6'2 Fox. Of course Lost isn't the best show to compare heights, due to the uneven ground in most scenes. Still, i'm surprised to see he's only 6'-6'1.
James on Tom Cruise
Well Shredder in the pic I posted you can see that Clinton is virtually eye to eye with Clinton.
Rika on Patrick Wilson
Sam Jackson isn't exactly 6'2 anymore. He actually looks like he's lost height.
He looked taller on Watchmen because he was always around that 5'5 actor.
He really does look about 5'11, maybe abit mroe.
rob89 on Jason Momoa
Looks 6'3 tops if you ask me, definitely not 6'4.
Jimbo on Jon Erik Hexum
yes a terrible shame what happened to jon Erik he probably would have made it big. Always thought he was about 6'0 but On watching repeats of Voyagers he wore boots all the time so i would say he was a solid 5'10 and 6'1 with boots on.
dan on John Lennon
people are so obsessed about height?who cares how tall he was.that really does not matter.the only people who care so much about height are people who get caught up in societys pressure to "think" you are better because of certain things.we should be judgeing people on their heart.john had plenty of that.

anonymous*** on Charlize Theron
Ms. Theron just stood next to me after the movie premiere of "The Road" in Hollywood a few hours ago so this height report is "hot off the presses". Ms. Theron was shorter than me by 1.5 to 2 inches and I am just shy of 5'10" at night. We were both wearing low 2 inch heels so I put her at 5'8" max (and I am being very generous here). I was very surprised by how small she looked as I had seen her look as tall as some of her male co-stars in films and she always looked tall and lanky even in flat shoes but I guess it's just the camera angles. For example, I stood next to Will Smith and Keanu Reeves and I can confirm that they are both at least 6'0.5" but Charlize looked as tall as them on their respective films. What also re-enforced the belief that she was tall was that I had walked by her stunt/body double for the movie "Hancock" in 2007 and the stunt double was about 5' 11" plus high heels.
MD on Height Request
How tall is footballer Frank Lampard of Chelsea? Finding his true height would really help in finding Beckham's height. I've seen 182-184 listed for him.

Hugh Chris heyerdahl is 6'4, he looked 2 inches on tom, take a inch of his 6'3, so tom max could be 6'2 to 6'2'5, maybe 1'5 inches off the boot

Don on Sylvester Stallone
Well Sheen is slouching in the first two pictures and even with the slouch, he doesn't seem all that much shorter than sly really. Third picture is not a good one as sheen is pretty much bending forward.
I could see sheen being roughly sly's height or maybe a tad bit shorter if he straightens out making him 5'10, assuming he's wearing normal footwear. Sheen's hardly known as a lift wearer so that's probably the case. That being said, sly's probably got at least an inch on sheen in footwear anyway but we will never know.

The avarage height for the entire population is more like 5'11.75
Hugh on Tom Welling
I saw Christopher Heyerdahl, and the Blue episode, where he is next to Tom. Christopher Heyerdahl is about 2 inches taller than Tom. This looks odd. Christopher Heyerdahl doesn't look 6'3" next to Rob, he looks more like 6'2". If and only if he is bending his legs next to Rob, Christopher Heyerdahl is 6'3" (this would make Tom 6'1" max). If and only if Christopher Heyerdahl had 1 inch shoes advantage on Tom (and this would be odd because Tom has thick sole boots in Blue scenes next to him, making me think they have similar sole thickness) Tom would be 6'2" max (otherwise 6'1" max).

Brad on Tom Cruise
Cruise stood with lots of people I've known for 20 years, he's as Rob has listed or 5' 8" in military. 5' 7" is a joke, he had G clean by 1.5". TC ain't gonna wear that Portman-Priestley garbage on his feet...that's for sucker MC's. Folks, meet him someday, he stands like a statue of a Paris Island soldier.
Brad on Erika Eleniak
I met her about 2o years ago, very hot, as listed is correct with SM. Musta missed her at Burbank, they had lots of Playboy gals.
Brad on Sylvester Stallone
Caan has never been 5' 9" since Nixon was in office. What kid of idiot thinks Mama Stallone is 5' 6"?, that would make Sly in G actualized guessed height. Rising still has that over 5' 10" agenda for this guy who has never been over 5' 9" in his life. Cruise is 5' 8" in military, Stallone 5' 9" in his "effect". Hey Burby I got great G tales that can't be printed here. I'm sure Rob has some also. We should be glad he's gone, and not just for his ridiculous height affirmations of green cheese on the moon like Willis and Sly & himself...GC had mas grande problemas.
Hugh on Arnold Schwarzenegger
Derek I said "if Arnold stood straight he would be 5 inches shorter". Because of his head down and bending he looks 7 inches shorter than graham.
Shoes are so flat that we can take no account of them (I can guess 1/4" or 1/5").
Clearly in his twenties Arnold wan't over 6' flat. (Grown up in his thirties??)
Anonymous on George Hertzberg
i think George was likely a fraction over 6ft5. no idea why rob puts him 6ft4.75, as yoyo mention i agree it. he was about a head over rob. although he have quite a small head but at least came a 24cm head length. if rob 173 he would be around 196.?cm in my opinion. so 6ft5 for him.

I think Rob is probably at least 6 feet. I do know that he is TALLER than Kellan Lutz, for those who are saying otherwise. Someone posted a photo of them standing on GRASS which as we all know can make a huge difference in height. Here is one which clearly proves for once and all that Rob is at least an inch taller than Kellan who seems to have on boots with heels.

Heightcritique on John Travolta
Anonymous: First of all Willis is 5'11.5" Click Here
and second, Jackson is in lifts in the Cannes clip as I mentioned in my last post...and in addition as I mentioned before...there is only .25" difference between Travolta and Jackson in the 'Pulp' screenshots I posted as is the case on the Diner scene, and that stands as fact unless you can provide proof to refute it.
In regards to the picture I posted, both Travolta and Jackson are standing exactly at the same distance from the camera as it is evident in the distance and position of their feet. Jackson just have the second leg placed more in the background and the light source coming from the left casts a longer shadow behind Jackons which gives the illusion to the untrained eye that he is standing further back, so your comment shows lack of knoledge and attention in critiquing photographs. Also, if you gauge height by comparing Travolta and Jackson heights next to Uma since both men are standing exactly at the same distance from her, there is clearly only .25" height difference between them, thus your comment of "I have no idea why you even posted this pic to try and prove a point" shows your ignorance, unability to render a sound visual analysis based on basic photographic concepts, and gross failed perception.

5'9 barefoot for Sly is a realistic and sensible estimation. 5'7 is even more ludicrous than 5'11 in my opinion.

Anonymous on Venus Williams
Athletes grow taller beyond the age of 17, and the profile information about Venus was entered when she was 17, and never changed again. I think she is somewhere between 6'1'' and 6'2'' and possibly 6'2'' but doesn't want people to think she is that tall.
Anonymous on Maria Sharapova
Maria is somewhere between 6'1'' and 6'2''. She might not be exactly 6'2'', but saying that she is shorter than 6'1'' is simply silly. She is the tallest top tennis player on women's side other than Lindsay Davenport who is a true 6'2'' or maybe even 6'2 1/2''. By the way, I think Venus Williams is taller than 6'1''. She must be at least 6'1 1/2'' if not 6'2''.

I don't know what the big deal is. We all know that he was shorter than his ex-wife Nicole Kidman, but he is not 'short' by any standard. Nicole Kidman is taller than the average man. 5'8'' is pretty average among the general population, especially among his generation (he is 47).

LG69 says on 4/Nov/09
The Backlund/Andre photo is still the best available to get an accurate height of Andre. Andre measures just past 10.5 cinder blocks,not counting his afro. I just researched online,and found out that those cinder blocks are made by manufacturers at 7 5/8" to allow the mortar to feel in the space between blocks, thereby giving you the standard 8". The bottom block is also a"standard half block"( 4" with mortar included) with a type of black caulk around the base. So, 10.5x8=84"(7feet), and Andre is about 1/2"past the 10th block. Andre's heels are at most 1/2" but that doesn't mean he's getting a full 1/2". My Addidas have a 1" heel from the outside, but when I measure in them I'm getting 3/4" of lift. Plus he weighs 500lbs, and I'm sure that's compressing the material quite a bit. Point is: Andre was 7' tall in that photo. He may have been taller at some point, and we know he was shorter in later years due to his condition and back surgery; at death he was measured at 6'10" 555lbs according to the coroner. Until a better photo or video comes along, I'm 100% convinced he was 7'at his peak. Btw, I researched a bit on Backlund, and he was measured at 6'0 even when he wrestled in college; he is 1.5(12") blocks shorter than Andre.
You're BOSS, right?

Kris on General Height
I've got a question for anyone who wants to help me. I got into this site about a month ago and consequently became...well, let's just say, "way into height". I'd never really noticed peoples' heights before so now I'm into guessing them and getting a feel for what my own looks like.
My question is this: I kinda got into measuring myself pretty regularly to track daily fluctuations and all that fun stuff - and when I started I was consistently 6'2.25" morning, 6'1.75" midday, and 6'1.5" at night.
Each time I measure myself, I stretch as much as I possibly can (without weirdly contorting my body, though), and after about a month I'm noticing my height as gone up. Now I consistently measure 6'2.5" morning, 6'2 midday, and 6'1.875" (or 6'1 and 7/8ths") at night.
Could I have stretched my body my measuring myself so much? Keep in mind I'm 25 so I'm not growing anymore...
Rika on Taylor Lautner
Ive actually said he is only 5'8 numerous times. People seem to think that just because i say he isn't tall, they think im really saying he's super short when i clearly say a height(5'8). People dont read.
Now, people slouch around tall people because they dont want to look like they're stretching to look taller, so they make themselves look smaller so people think they're really bigger up close.
Its a trick, dont be so direct.

"the median of the avg height increases steadly every year in Spain"
I disagree, i read some studies made by spanish newspapers and apparently spanish people have reached their ceiling in terms of height due to strong immigration from third world countries and people not having enough children. There are tons of short people(less than 5"7) in southern Spain. People in southern Spain has an avg of 169cm so the male avg for spanish people is around 173cm nationally. 178cm?, i read in "20 minutos" which is one of madrid's most influential newspapers that the avg height for younger spaniards is 176cm as 2008. I don't argue that the new generations are taller but not as tall as people think. I live in Spain and there's tons of short people too. 6"3-6"5 guys really stick out in Spain.

180cm on General Height
It's interesting to see how people try to sell that his or her country is taller than it really is.People tend to lie about it. I've traveled a lot around the world and this is how i see things shaping up: Uk, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada: male avg is 175-177cm(around 5"9-5"9 and a half) and for younger generations:176-178cm. Nordic countries: avg=178cm-180cm and for younger generations:180cm-182cm. Southern european countries(Spain, France, Italy,etc) the avg is like 173-174 and for younger generations: 176-178cm. The Netherlands is like 180cm-182cm and for new generations:183cm-185cm. People please stop lying about your countries' national avg. There are tons of men between 5"8 and 5"11 in the Western world and that's a fact.Calling a 5"9 guy SHORT is NONSENSE. Countries' height averages are not soaring that fast. Remember that Young People are less and less in terms of percentage of the population because we are having fewer babies in the western world and there are more immigrants are commin' so the avg is getting shorter.

Kristen on General Height
Mike, I believe that your experiences are more common than Vibram's alleged experiences. I feel most people in the UK and Ireland would say the same thing. It's hard to believe that many people would even notice the heights of 5'9 guys, let alone comment on them, because that's such an ordinary height. It's also hard to believe that people would be crass enough to insult them for being of ORDINARY height. It's not like they're 5'2, and, even then, only childish, rude jerks would mock them.

Mike says on 25/Aug/09
Owen looks 5'8 to me. Definitely not a 'midget', just slightly below average for a UK male, although I guess you could say he is 'short' compared to a lot of strikers
--------------------
Which strikers is he short compared to? Carlos Tevez? Craig Bellamy? Robinho? Jermaine Defoe? Theo Walcott? Andy Johnson? Robbie Keane? Darius Vassell? Henri Camara?
You make it sound like it's the 'norm' for strikers to be tall, when this is clearly not the case.
---------
Well, compared those players you have just listed, no, he would not be considered short.
However, I should point out that Carlos Tevez, Jermaine Defoe Craig Bellamy, Robinho, Theo Walcott and Darius Vassell are all wingers/second strikers, whereas Michael Owen is more of a centre forward, so this doesn't prove/disprove anything.
Here is a list of some of the top CFs and their heights:
Fernando Torres - 6'1
Luis Fabiano - 6'0
Didier Drogba - 6'2.5
Samuel Eto'o - 5'11
Zlatan Ibrahimović - 6'5
Ruud van Nistelrooy - 6'2.5
Emmanuel Adebayor- 6'3
Dimitar Berbatov - 6'2
Robin van Persie - 6'2
Karim Benzema - 6'0
Thierry Henry - 6'2
Hopefully this shows you that Michael Owen, at 5'8 (I'm actually now thinking he's closer 5'7.5) is considered 'short', for the position he plays in.
Amongst this crowd,

G.G - if from 13 to 13.5 you grew 5 inches from 5'2 to 5'7, then grew another 3.5 inches from 13.5 to 14, then grew another 2.3 inches from 14 to 15, adding up to 10.8 inches you've grown since 13 years old, making you about 6'1, I'd say you're about done growing. Those are just giant spurts and I doubt you'll have any more of them.

I don't think at all that 6'3" is very tall.I'm 5'6" and my boyfriend is 6'2.5" and I have never considered him very tall.Girls like 6'3" guys or close. Even very short ones! I guess, something wanted and idealized should not be called "very" or "too" tall. I agree that 6'3" is such a popular height among teens as well. My 14 year old brother said he wanted to be 6'3", at least 6'2" although he is only 5'8" now. Believe me! It is the dream of so many kids these days. Had it been very tall or too tall, people would hesitate to say they want to be as tall as 6'3" or wish they were so.

Danimal and Alex have no explanation as to why Taker is so tall next to Khali, other than Taker must have been in 2.5 inch lifts?
Taker is still 6'7.75-6'8 down from a peak of 6'8.5ish. PERIOD.
Chris on Christian Bale
Well the crazy thing here is that you are all liars. I met Christian Bale while he was wearing his bat man uniform ( and so was I) and his ears were a horse hair's higher than mine. I am a African American male mail man that is 6'3" without the batman uniform on, so if my arithmetic correct that makes him 6'2.25 (a horse hair never lies!!!!!)
Clay on Steve Nash
Steve said on a interview with ESPN radio that he's just 6'1'' without shoes. He's not trying to boost his own height the NBA just lists their players in their shoes.

7'0 peak for show
7'1-2 peak for andre
kinggollum on Big Show
I used to think that Big Show and Andre were around the same height but after seeing Show with Shaq and Shaq with Wilt and Wilt with Andre, It appears a peak show would be over an inch shorter than a peak andre.

mike on General Height
i don't know if my question has already registered, but being tall is becoming a bit of a problem in my life at the moment. Is 6ft 5 (195cm) abit unusual?
LG69 on Andre The Giant
The Backlund/Andre photo is still the best available to get an accurate height of Andre. Andre measures just past 10.5 cinder blocks,not counting his afro. I just researched online,and found out that those cinder blocks are made by manufacturers at 7 5/8" to allow the mortar to feel in the space between blocks, thereby giving you the standard 8". The bottom block is also a"standard half block"( 4" with mortar included) with a type of black caulk around the base. So, 10.5x8=84"(7feet), and Andre is about 1/2"past the 10th block. Andre's heels are at most 1/2" but that doesn't mean he's getting a full 1/2". My Addidas have a 1" heel from the outside, but when I measure in them I'm getting 3/4" of lift. Plus he weighs 500lbs, and I'm sure that's compressing the material quite a bit. Point is: Andre was 7' tall in that photo. He may have been taller at some point, and we know he was shorter in later years due to his condition and back surgery; at death he was measured at 6'10" 555lbs according to the coroner. Until a better photo or video comes along, I'm 100% convinced he was 7'at his peak. Btw, I researched a bit on Backlund, and he was measured at 6'0 even when he wrestled in college; he is 1.5(12") blocks shorter than Andre.
Kris on General Height
@Vibram
You just have to realize most people outside of this website don't think about height much. People aren't "testing" each others' heights on the streets... that's just silly. Also I noticed you have a habit of making blanket statements off things you maybe saw or heard once or twice. Someone else said to stop summing up things so much, and I agree.
You sound pretty young, maybe high school? If so, just know that if you are observing "short" (I believe you said someone 5'9 ...?) people being called gay and having things thrown at them, it is not how the real world works.
You are not going to convince anyone here that your argument has any truth, so I'd drop it. Don't take what people are saying too harshly, either.

RisingForce on Sylvester Stallone
See, exactly what I'm talking about. Brad just magically gives Jackie Stallone a height of 5'4" to fit his agenda.
And as far as Flavin's height. It's true that women might lie, but Kate Moss(at 5'4"-5'5") would certainly have more incentive to lie than Flavin who regardless of her exact height is quite a bit taller than Moss.
josh on Flava Flav
the picture is useless. it does not show their feet and lil wayne is probably wearing high shoes because he is not 5'5.5 more like 5'4.5 did you not see him at the grammys when kayne and jay tower over him and i think flava flav is 5'5.5.

Starting to finally recognize that Vegas is the last person I should be having an objective and unbiased conversation with about wrestling, or wrestler's heights. Unlike JT (who is a lawyer by profession and is on this site most likely for fun), we have Vegas, who is an EXTREME wrestling fan (like Big Show) and takes his wrestling VERY seriously and religiously and like any EXTREME fan, they will defend their favorites and BASH and BELITTLE the guys they don't like. There is very little objectivity in your posts and you take this way too seriously, seeing this isn't just a hobby for you, but most likely an obsession, seeing how a MAN of YOUR AGE still travels all over to meet wrestlers, follow the stats and is vocal about his opinions I'm sure if asked.
From this point forward, I will no longer engage in a dispute with Vegas concerning wrestlers heights. I already know you dislike Andre, Hogan, Piper and others and it's reflected in your posts. Unlike yourself, I could care less about wrestling these days. I'm in my early 30's and don't take this ANYWHERE near as serious as you do. I don't take if Hogan is 6'1" or 6'5" today. I don't care if Andre was 6'9" or 7'2", or if Piper was 5'9" or 6'3". I am on her for fun and have no personal alliance with any of these men like you do. NO PREFERENCE....JUST KILLING TIME when I'm bored.

Parker on Napoleon
Well HistoryMajor, you better get in touch with Wikepedia which includes the following extract and ask them to change it.
"British propaganda depicted Napoleon as much smaller than average height and this image persists. Confusion about his height also results from the difference between the French pouce and British inch2.71 and 2.54 cm respectively; he was 1.7 metres (5 ft 7 in) tall, average height for the period, sometimes quoted as 1.68 metres (5 ft 6 in).[152][note 13]"

aramx on Robert Wadlow
Right now I am waiting for another giant who has the guts to get measured by Guinnes so that Sultan Kosen does not hold his record for the rest of his life (it's hard to tell he will live given his condition but probably at least another 10 years).
derek d on Sylvester Stallone
One thing that always struck me was Sly's 5'10 claim. I mean most celebrities who are even a little self conscious about their height will lie and add AT LEAST 2 inches to their height. This usually goes for 5'7 to 5'10 men and I can name a hand full that are taller than 6 ft. Sly is probably the most self conscious of them all, so why would he just push up his height one inch in his claim?
aramx on Andre The Giant
How much did Andre weigh in that vid? Like 450 lbs? And yeah he looked just about 7 feet tall in it (probably with the extra inch from the shoes). How high would you say his shoulder level is? I would like to know because then we can determine roughly how tall the other people in that video are.

It could be, but it could be a lot of things. I know people, for example, who are 5' 10 who "round up" to 6'. Show could be 6' 11 flat, but rounds up to 7', etc. This is more rare, but I've even seen people round down at times. Like if someone is 6' 0.5" I've seen people simply say 6'.
Don on General Height
Vibram,
Nice try trying to backtrack but you are making yourself sound even more idiotic with your latest statement. a girl will 'test' a shortish guy if he has height insecurities before moving onto a next date let alone consider him a bf?
you, young chap are so completely off base on this one that you lost any inkling of credibility you even had left. i really suggest you go out and meet some women before even trying to spew off any more asinine statements.
here's a logic that even you should have considered in the first place: maybe if a girl was shallow enough to think about testing a guy's height insecurities, she wouldn't have even bothered wasting her time on a date with the short guy in the first place?
get out of the basement already

There is another shot of them in heels, Drew is in platforms & possibly higher heels, and you can see that she is at least 3" taller than Ellen. May be she had on lifts on too?
Brad on Sylvester Stallone

He was caught trying on regular shoes next to his wife in sandals. I guess that also prove G's was wrong when you claimed Sly being 5'11" in sandals in one of his pic's.

Rob G on Arnold Schwarzenegger
Heightcritique, for the record I said Arnold was clearly taller than 6'1" in his prime, so he was indeed about 6'2" (he himself claimed 6'1.75"). You obviously misread my post. What is Arnold's height today? I really haven't make up my mind yet.
Zach on Sylvester Stallone
Two very good points Mickey. Flavin was a model, the usual female range for which being 5'8-5'11. In the modelling field, the taller the better. If you were a male model you'd rather be 6'1 than 5'11, even though both are above average height.
And since we are using extremely weak evidence, sure lets use Glenn's estimates for Flavin. Glenn said she was 'around his height' and 'between 5'7-9'. So clutching at what is now a handful of straws, Flavin is somewhere between 5'6.75 and 5'9.5 not saying she is but its just plain silly to rule anything in that range out. In fact lets be fair about this and use the midpoint. Flavin is 5'8.125 based on all the evidence we have. Settled.

I read elsewhere that Dutch young men average 5ft11.25, not 6ft1 like some on here make it out to be.
My Dutch estimate having been there in 2008 for 6 days (Amsterdam):
Very short / stands out (bottom 10% of males) = 5ft8 & below
Short = 5ft9 to 5ft10 (20%; i.e. 80% are taller than you)
Average = 5ft11 to 6ft2 (roughly 50% percentile; most guys are in this range)
Tall = 6ft3+ (top 20%)

Vibram on General Height
It's not that people deliberately set out to attack, goad and bully men below 5ft10, but there is an air that people will 'test' you for height insecurities, which otherwise taller men don't receive. It includes women who might like say a 5ft7.75 man but will test him to see if he's insecure about is height before the next date, or even consider him as a boyfriend in the first place. She wouldn't otherwise do that to a 6ft guy, and that height testing seems to stop at 5ft10.
Understand?

I live in Scotland and certainly have never observed any 5'7-5'9 men being treated in the way Vibram describes, I also don't think that people of this height are considered 'weak', and plenty women will go for the shorter guy rather than the taller guy.

Lucio on Arnold Schwarzenegger
Metric says on 3/Nov/09
Arnold looks exactly 6-0 in Jims pic. Not one inch more! Jim is speaking the truth.
------------------------------
Well, according to what you say that?
I am curious to know.
Beyond any consideration you can do about the picture with Jim and with all the unknown variables (position of the legs, worn footwear, ground, posture, etc. etc, I think the only sure thing we can say is this: Arnold in the picture with Jim is not less than 185 cm.
Obviously with all the variables involved.
Indeed, an Anglo-Saxon foot is equal to 30.48 cm.
English inch is equals 2.54 cm.
So Jim is tall 6'1-3/8" which corresponds to
186.37 cm.
Arnold at his peak, was 6'1.5" which corresponds to 186.69 cm. Give and take an cm.
Therefore in the picture with Jim the only thing you can say is that they are almost identical as height, maybe Arnold a little less, but because we don't know what shoes they wear, and how is the ground beneath them.

Not least, as rightly Guy says, when we measure the height, we are much more straight than how we normally (It 'a matter of course, but Metric is not expedient to point this out and then deliberately omits)!
Not to mention that Jim really gives the impression of leaning to Arnold with all his weight.

Heightcritique on Kate Beckinsale
She is another example of the golden mean height of a woman: 5'7". Next to 6'2" Val Helsing (Hugh Jackmam) she appears to be around 5'9" in boots: Click Here Click Here
She has long legs that accentuate the curves of her body: Click Here Click Here
She is not only beautiful, and tall but also educated at Oxford and multilingual in English, French and Russian. An exceptional woman indeed. I don't like English weather but for her I can sacrifice a couple of weeks of my life under gloomy weather which may work well for an excuse of staying in...I mean who can leave home with a beautiful creature that looks like this in the bedroom: Click Here Click Here Click Here

Heightcritique on Enrique Iglesias
Karl Karlsen: Casillas is 6'1" and Valdes is 6', and Julio Iglesias in the roaster of Real Madrid was 6'1", so don't question my knowledge of the liga. If you back to the Spanish Liga say 20 years ago, no golie was below 6'1". As far as your insult, you're the moron by thinking you know more football than me. I am a fan of Barcelona FC among others.
Heightcritique on Arnold Schwarzenegger
Rob G says on 3/Nov/09
Original says on 2/Nov/09
Peak Height is 6'0.5", now is 5'11.5".
Original, you seem right on the money with many of your estimates IMO, but Arnold was clearly taller than 6'1" at his peak. Now certainly 5'11.5"-6f range.
Rob G: I suggest you look at the Honner clip, and the photos of Governator next to Obama, Clinton, Clint Eastwood, Harrison Ford, Tom Arnold, etc. and gauge Governator's present height again which is 6'1 1/8". Peak height is 6'2" not 6'1" or are you blind? Click Here

Peak Height is 6'0.5", now is 5'11.5".
He was measured at 6'1.5" for crying out loud.
Original: in addition to what Danimal said, I suggest you look at this picture again and gauge Governator's peak height: Click Here if you can't see a 6'2" man (with low heel shoes which also debunks the lift argument) next to a 5'9" man, than you have a serious eye problem.
Maloney Durning on Robert Wadlow
Kettlewell
Eliza Simpson came from Bantry in Ireland. She grew to a height of 7 ft 2 and was measured by Doctor Cloynes at Cork and also an agent of Barnum. Barnum's man was authorised to offer her a contract, which meant leaving for America.
She appeared at Barnum's Museum and was paired off with Norfolk giant Robert Hales. There has been speculation whether there was a marriage, between these two. But it may have been a publicity stunt. Several sources have indicated that Eliza came from Pittsburgh, this is incorrect, but she may well have had relatives, who had previously left Ireland and settled there.

Go meet him, your 5' 7" fantasy will melt.
Brad I believe your judgment as you seem to be a good judge of height, but what did Tom's shoes look like when you met him? Sorry if you have explained it here before.
Lenad on Jack Palance
Probably 6ft2ish at the time of his death and 6ft3ish when young
Tage on General Height
Wood says on 3/Nov/09
6'3 being average will be the day. I've said this before but the Dutch really aren't that much taller than the English. I'd say average height is 5'11 if anything
It's interesting because the English and Dutch are the same stock genetically. It's like a continuation across the channel.
Guy on Arnold Schwarzenegger
Rob G says on 3/Nov/09
Original says on 2/Nov/09
Peak Height is 6'0.5", now is 5'11.5".
Many here seem to think that Arnold's height is disputable based on their opinion. That's well and fine, but he was measured on a stadiometer at 6'1 1/2". If he was in fact only 6'0.5", he would have been measured as such. He wasn't. Since you don't give any examples of why this measured height is wrong, we'll just assume it is just your personal opinion. Remember poor posture can make anyone seem shorter, and Arnold has never stood with great posture. A persons official height is always measured standing as straight as possible, usually much straighter than normal. Arnold probably appeared 6'0.5" because he was a notorious sloucher, but when standing perfectly straight he would have gained some height. Even Vince Basille was doubtful about Arnold's claimed height, probably due to his poor posture. But Arnold made a believer out of him by standing straight for measurement on a professional device. This is common with many guys over 6'. I'm 6' tall and got estimated at only 5'10" by a much shorter guy once. He seemed shocked and convinced when I said I was actually 6' and then stood up straight. He then replied I should stand like that all the time. Work it.
Brad on Sylvester Stallone
Zach attack on the Riser. Imagine G here now, he'd be crying in his cocoa puffs "I seen him 20 times, sob, in awl types of footware, and I prooved it with my photos at 5' 8", sob, he's 5' 10.5" lowest at over 60 years old sob, Flavin owned me by 1.5". I hear he said he was busy on April 9th 2010. Sal, the Volvo.
Aleks on Matt Damon
Tarantino is 6-1 and has 3 inches on Pitt. 5-10 that is.
Brad on Tom Cruise
Will Smith at 6' 3" is something G would say to justify being 5' 8". Correct Dustin, ever see G in Portmans which he never mentioned?
Brad on Bruce Willis
Clooney must be 6', G said Willis was 6' 1".
Parker on Tom Cruise
Aleks says on 2/Nov/09
You should reconsider, Cruise isn't 5'8" or anything close to it. Never been in his life. The 5'6ū" measurement from the late 80s seems accurate.
He already has Aleks = 4 years ago when I first came to the site Rob had Cruise at 171 - after viewing a plethora of photographs and personal sightings, he realised he was taller than Spielberg and put him up to 172.
LG69 on Big Show
In the photo above next to the 6'1.5" guy, Show looks 6'10". Show has about 9" over him at most. A peak Show was just under 7'0. He himself said "I'm 7'0", that could be 6'11.5" rounded up.
LG69 on Dalip Singh
7'1" for Singh is spot on...Shaq 7'0.5"...Show 6'11.5".

He is an inch shorter then 6'2" Hugo Weaving even with the 2 inch shoes he wears. 181 - 183 cm for him may be a possibility.
ScottGun on Dolph Lundgren
Just saw Dolph Lundgren on the Tonight Show. The 6'4" Conan was over an inch taller.
the dude on Jason Statham
I third that women misjudge height thing. My 5'2 friend thinks I'm only 5'5-5'6(tops) with shoes on. I'm 5'9 without shoes on and I tower over. Sheesh, it must be my poor posture...
JT on The Undertaker
Vegas says on 3/Nov/09
anyone come up with a good explanation as to why taker was slightly taller next to khali than kane??
...and Kane was not wearing small-heeled boots with Khali, and why Taker in Lugz-style boots was basically the same height as Albert/Matt Bloom, when Albert in those same type boots was noticeably shorter than 6'8" Akebono in boots with paper-thin soles....
Leung on Joel Madden
Is he really 5'7"? He doesn't look it. The Madden brothers are currently in Australia and getting their mugs on tv a lot.
steve on General Height
vibram you make some pretty good observations, but sound like someone with nazi ideals that thinks way too much about this stuff. id stop posting man, you sound like a fool. Ive never thought of guys that are shorter than 6 foot as "gay" or "weak". Sure some short guys i know (5'7 and under) seem like they want to prove themselves more often than my taller friends but you cant just sum it up like you know everything. There is a world outside the UK. Plus my girlfriend of 3 years left me for a fellow whos about 5'8. What does that say about your universal perception on height? Natural selection by the way favors those who can produce the greatest number of fertile offspring not those who have the most inches.
raaju on Tinchy Stryder
he was being ABSOLUTELY HONEST when he said 5ft 3/4, because he's definately around 5ft 3, you have to give the guy props for that. the guy went to the same sixth form and uni as me. i see this guy around my neighbourhood as much as once every week, i'm always walking past this guy, but he's not so much on foot nowadays though. so i can tell you for sure he's DEFINATELY NOT 5ft 1
Amanda on Julia Roberts
I agree with Doug. I mean, it's not as if she were a model or a guy, where it would be more likely that she'd exaggerate her height. Saying she's 5'6" or 5'7" seems a little ridiculous. I'd say 5'8" or 5'9" is about right. She looks pretty obviously tall. Not too tall, near 6'0", but taller than just 5'6".
