Rob, just upgrade him. Hugh says on 28/Mar/08
He lost absolutely no height. 6ft1 is ridiculous. 6ft2 definately.
Hugh says on 19/Mar/08
6ft2 minimum. If not 6ft3. I met him at Live 8 in Hyde Park a few years back. He was about my height. Chris says on 3/May/07
Saw him in Spain on a set, at least 6'2''. Anonymous says on 15/Jan/07

i met him once 1986 and he is definitely at least 6'2". Im 6'1"" and he was definitely taller. Aussie Bloke says on 13/Dec/06
He's arpund the 6ft1 mark these days, but if you go back 10-15 years, he was certainly around 6ft2. People shrink, its a fact of life, he is 6ft1 these days I'm sorry to any doubters Brad says on 11/Dec/06
Saw The Boomtown Rats at The Rainbow Music Hall in Denver on their first U.S. tour. Met him before show in the parking lot. He's 6' 2". Ugly. smoke says on 31/Oct/06
Wow he must be the only cele on this site that everyone agrees on him being taller than what the editor has stated. Joe says on 6/Aug/06
six foot two for definite. He could be taller. MHouillon says on 20/Apr/06
Yeah, SIR Bob Geldof is def taller than 185... more like 187,188, even 189 possible. Anonymous says on 23/Jan/06
He was taller than every character in the movie of Pink Floyd's The Wall when he stared as Pink. He always seem to be a big guy in reality so I think he got to big very tall. Chris says on 8/Nov/05
I saw a concert with him in Salmanca,(Spain) in 2003, he looked a solid 6'2''. Tubbs says on 8/Nov/05
There's an awful moment in Live Aid when he sings backing vocals to Let It Be with Pete Townshend, Townshend is a genuine 6ft, and Bob looked atleast 2 inches taller, 6'2 is possible i think. elvoys says on 5/Nov/05
def 6,2 or 3 Me says on 12/Aug/05
I think this is reasonably accurate...he appears to be taller as he is so lean. In the Boomtown Rats song 'Wind Chill Factor (Minus Zero)' there is a line which goes... "I took a tube train through the subway systems. I rode those tunnels like a six foot mole." So clearly he is at least 6 foot however he could be much taller...6ft 1 or 2 doesn't exactly fit in with the timing of the song. absent says on 24/Jul/05
He really looks taller, he towers over other people.
Michael says on 1/Jun/05
Geldof always looked taller to me than that (particularly when standing next to other people). I think 6'2" is probably more accurate. |
