Click Here He looks the same as 5ft11 (180cm) Gordon Brown, maybe 1cm shorter. I think you need to cut 2cm off the listing Rob.
You mean 1cm taller surely? I think this listing is correct.

I've met David Beckham, I'm 5'11.5 and I was taller than him, I'd give him a weak 5'10, maybe even 5'9.5, he was shorter than i expected. p says on 3/Mar/10
These are pics of David Beckham with 5'9.5"-5'9.75" Queen Latifah and wife Victoria (5'4" with 4" heels). These pics give the most accurate portrayl of these celebs heights because they are in sandals (there are no lifts, shoes of varying height, boots, or cleats) - no trickery whatsoever. As you can see David and Queen Latifah are basically the same height. David may have a slight height advantage but his sandals are a bit thicker then Latifah's. Here David seems to be a very tall 5'9.5"- a weak 5'10". Also David is only slightly taller then his wife in these pics by about 1.5 inches. Again these pics are very accurate and as one can tell there are no height-enhancing tools being used(lifts, boots, cleats, or shoes of varying sole height). He is somewhere in the 5'9.5"-5'10" range. WITH CLEATS, BOOTS OR LIFTS he MIGHT reach 5'11". Accept it people. End of discussion. Also please dont compare people when they are pictured in shoes - you dont know if they are wearing lifts or have shoes of varying sole heights which drastically alters their true height. The pics are here

Becks appears to be around an inch shorter. Denzel must be around 184cm. Becks, therefore, around 181-180cm. Hugh (191cm/252lbs) says on 17/Feb/10

Since I've met David, two days ago I can help. I was asking an autograph so he was very near to me, he had similar shoes to mine, I'm 5'11. Also I asked him how tall he was, he told me "183 cm". I don't think he is that tall, we where eye to eye, I put him from 179 cm to 181 cm max. Also, I played soccer for a couple of years, and the in the team I was listed at 183 cm because they mesured me in shoes... Shaun says on 14/Jan/10

whats this crap about him being 5'10 barefoot? My sentiments exactly. If Beckham is 5'10" Clooney isn't even 5'8" LOL MD says on 8/Jan/10
It's crazy to hear that Kaka and C. Ronaldo both had their doctors pay attention to their height and so much so in the case of Kaka that he had "growth treatments". This must be something popular outside of the US with money, because I've never heard of elite US athletes, as teens, having doctors worry over their heights or put them through these growth treatements. Karl Karlsen says on 7/Jan/10
I watcha lot of football and believe me: Kakà and Ronaldo are AT LEAST 6'0.75. I think there are pretty accurate 6'1, Kakà seems to be 6'1.25. Believe me! Cristiano always seems to be in the 6'2 range because of his body (large and tiny) but he's 6'0.75-6'1. 5'11 is the most ridicolous thing I've ever heard. He's AT LEAST 6'0.5 really AT LEAST! Mark says on 6/Jan/10
Uh, CR9, I dont think you've ever seen Ronaldo. He has very narrow shoulders and is not wide AT ALL. Broad shouldered guys are Stephen Appiah, Jozy Altidore, Mike Tyson, Ronaldo Nazario (BIG Fenomeno Ronaldo, not c ronaldo), Bernard Hopkins, etc... These guys are broad/wide, not c ronaldo. Emrah says on 6/Jan/10
Listen Kaka is 182! look what i found:
Full name: Ricardo Izecson dos Santos Leite.
Date of birth: May 15th 1982.
Place of birth: Brasilia, the administrative capital of the Brazilian Federal District.
Height: 1.82 m (6 ft). At age 12, Kaká was considerably shorter than his father and brother; medical tests showed that his bones suffered growth delay; for two years, Kaká was submitted to growth treatment, to reach normal height.
So that makes Ronaldo a 180cm,he wears lifts in his shoes
i think even in his football shoes,look at this picture he is the same height as 5ft11 alex ferguson
Click Here
Click Here
here again,where he is only 1 inch taller than ferguson
i think the most soccer players measure there height in shoes
come on men,frank lampard 1.84? he never looked more than 1.80m to me
beckham and lampard are the same height,so both max 1.80m barefoot
ronaldo 1.81/82m, kaka 1.82/1.83m
I have football shoes that are about 3cm
so if i count my lengte with my socces shoes i`m 1.87m in the morning and rest of the day 1.86m
so its bull****,ronaldo is noway 1.87cm barefoot he wears deffinetly lifts Original says on 1/Jan/10

Terry 184-185? HAHAHAH :D:D:D:D He's at LEAST 6'1.5 means 187cm, maybe 188cm.
Beckham is not 182cm and I think no 181cm. 5'11 seems to be right he needs a downgrade. Tom says on 8/Dec/09
whats this crap about him being 5'10 barefoot? european footballers are measured in their bare feet - and all his official listings place him between 180 - 183 cm. He may be 5'11, but not a whisker under. T says on 4/Dec/09

hes about 5' 10" ish maybe even a high 5'9". 6' or 5' 11" is really pushing it. That pic where he is against the height chart hes just UNDER 6' WITH CLEATS ON (5' 11.75"). Even with the somewhat wide stance hes not losing much height and the cleats are giving him about 1-2+ inches. All athletes on any roster are boosted up about an inch or 2. Also if you look at other pics with celebrities and him (ellen degeneres 5' 6.5" zac efron 5' 8.5" and queen latifa 5' 9.75")hes about their height or very slightly taller. However, he generally wears boots or dress shoes that give him a lift. His slender phyique also gives him the appearance that he is taller then he really is. So i give him a solid 5'9.75"-5'10.5".

This is an upgrade isn't it? I think this is spot on as he regularly looks 6'1" in boots. I think the Clooney pictures maybe convinced Rob? paul says on 24/Oct/09
frank lampard is now listed as 184cm, how can you grow a cm at 31. TJ says on 5/Oct/09
I think Rob has it spot on. He doesn't quite make 6ft but he's sure close to it. I'd guess that when listed 6ft, it's just rounding up by people who aren't as fussed about height as us lot, lol. Speaking of Beckham, I can't believe Saturday's World Cup qualifier isn't on tv live! It's only available online because of Setanta's collapse. Those who are like me and must see it live can get it here Click Here jd89 says on 30/Sep/09
Beckham was listed 6'0(183cm) when he played for Milan , but he was considerably shorter than real 6'1.25(186cm) Kaka , i think that without shoes Becks is about 5'11(180cm).does somebody know how tall are Fredrik Ljungberg, Roy Keane, Park Ji-Sung,Gary Neville ,Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen ?

I've seen 5'10/5'11 listed for Alex Ferguson. Ronaldo looks about 3 inches taller.
Strong 6'1 I would suggest
Click Here CR9 says on 12/Sep/09
Ronaldo is a around 6'1. He looks tall because of his hair and posture. I'm 6'1 and have the same haircut as his and people always ask me if I'm 6'2 or 6'3 and the people who are saying that he is over 186 to like 188 are bull****ter's. You can have a good posture and look tall. Beckham is about 5'11 maybe 6 not no taller then that. Also Ronaldo is buff so he looks very wide thus adding to his illusion of him being taller then 6'1. If you don't believe me then look at him standing by Usain Bolt and you'll see that Bolt is 6'5 and Ronaldo is about 4 inches short then Bolt when their standing by each other. Ronaldo's hair gives him the advantage of looking taller. It's also good for futbol because it throws defenders off. GM says on 10/Sep/09
Cristiano Ronaldo with shoes 186-7cm, barefoot 184-185. Kaka seems to be slack while Ronaldo shows off! Thats why there is a dispute.

Lampard who is listed as 6ft is taller than Beckham, Beckham looks 180-181cm next to Lamps. Karl Karlsen says on 2/Sep/09
6'1.5 is too much for Ronaldo. He's no more then 6'1.25. I think 6'1 is right. Kákà is a solid 6'1.25 and Kákà is not shorter then CR, there's a 1cm difference in both players, means Ronaldo is 185-185,5cm and Kákà 186-186,5cm.
CR has the better posture so he sometimes seems the same height or maybe taller, but he isn't! And yes 6'0 is really a joke, that's at least 2cm to low. Anonymous says on 31/Aug/09

Ronaldo: 185,5. Agree
Kaka: 187. Agree
Beckham: 182. Desagree. 180,5 ou 181.
Ballack: 188. Agree
Maldini: 185. Agree.
Ronaldinho: 180,5.
Ronaldo Brazilian: 183.
Zidane: 185.
Crouch: 204. Karl Karlsen says on 16/Aug/09
Again with precision-level:
Ronaldo is 185-186 / 6'1-6'1.25 (very precise... he has a good posture thus he seems to be 6'1.5 or more, but he's no more than 6'1.25... I think he's 6'1, means 185.5cm)
Kaka 186-187 / 6'1.25-6'1.5 this is precise too, he's ~1cm taller than C.Ronaldo.. they have they look same high, my opinion: 6'1.25 could be 6'1.5 MAX
Ballack is pretty accurate 188cm.. he's a strong 6'2
Maldini is 186MAX more 185 - Same case as Ronaldo's. More 6'1.25
Nesta is at least 1,87cm (6'1.5), maybe 6'1.75
Beckham is no more than 182, never ever... he has good posture and can look 6f+, but WITH shoes. Without I would say 5'11.25 MIN 5'11.5 MAX. So 181-182cm is pretty accurate.
Sheva isn't over 182cm. Same as Becks. 5'11.5 max
Fernando Torres is 185-186 (6'1-6'1.25) He's NEVER smaller than 6'1, he was 6'0 when he began playing for Atletico, when he was about 17-18. No he's at least 1 inch taller.
van Persie is about 183-185. He's at least 6f. Maybe also 6'1 idk, but he's definetly not more.
Most ppl here publish bullsh1t. C.Ronaldo 187/6'1.5 AT LEAST... ridicolous... Becks 6f AT LEAST ... WTF!
I'm 6'1 and I have a bad posture and most ppl say I'm a tall guy and estimate me at 6'2+. So what's the deal? I don't think I'm tall, and most ppl with average height (5'9-5'11) think everyone over 6f is big, 6'1 is TALLISH.. wtf it isn't true, YOU are small that's the fact D: greg says on 5/Aug/09
terry is maybe underestimated.he looked the same as 190cm will ferrel in a recent pic.this may be due to ferrels posture though john says on 29/Jul/09
Its pretty accurate...my uncle met him lasT summer, he is 6.12 tall and beckham was nearly as tall as him. wahsay says on 27/Jul/09
ya sheeby van persie to me is underestimated and also ronaldo...the guy is definately taller then 6'1....and i also feel he edges kaka ...maybe thay both are same height .. yoney says on 25/Jul/09
@sebby, I am not sure about Terry, but I agree with you about Van Persie. sebby says on 24/Jul/09
@Yoney- I think Van Persie and John Terry are underestimated. yoney says on 24/Jul/09
Footballer heights are generally wrong. Some countries do not update the numbers as their players grow, or some of them like to overestimate it. I think Beckham is the second type. He never looked 6 ft at any point of his career. However, in C.Ronaldo's case, I think he is the first type. He is a tall guy, and I am sure he is even a bit taller than 6'1". I think he is taller than Kaka, who is generally listed as 1.86 m. I think C.Ronaldo is at least 1.87 m. I, also, would agree with Ronaldinho's case. He was always listed shorther than 1.80 m before he came to Barcelona, however, after his arrival to Barcelona, magically, he became 1.82 m. He doesn't look taller than 1.78-1.79 m. greg says on 15/Jul/09
well we are gonna see whose taller out of c ronaldo and kaka for definite now.i think c ronaldo edges him by a cm. Sebby says on 8/Jul/09
@anonymous- thanks, ur probably right about Big Ronny he has always looked a solid 6ft. Never looked quite as tall as Zidane and always looked a tad taller than Becks. JJ says on 3/Jul/09
I'd say he's a shade under 6 feet. and C Ronaldo is definitely at least 6'1 Anonymous says on 2/Jul/09

I just saw Zidane yesterday while waiting for someone in a hotel lobby (I was very shocked to see a mega star like this in my city (Montreal)) anyway I stand 6' exactly and wore thin shoes while he was in running shoes and we were pretty eye-to-eye but he maybe had half an inch on me... so the listed 6'1 (185cm) seems pretty precise Anonymous says on 27/Jun/09

Original- 5'11 for Becks? Not sure about that. He's losing half inch here with legs apart. He's in blades on a cushioned service. Can't see him getting 1.5 inches. I think he's def in the 5'11 range,but closer to 6' than 5'11 in my opinion.
Click Here sebby says on 1/Jun/09
@Original- i agree with all but Ronaldo Brazilian. I have seen many team photos of Real Madrid where becks and fat ronny were standing next to each other. Fat Ron has always looked slightly taller than Becks. An inch at most. Many photos they appeared to be the same height also but becks has never looked taller than Ronny.

@wahsay- its makes sense. Anelka about 6'1, Lamps 6, Balack has to be 6'3 he just towers everyone at chelsea and terry has to be at least 6'1.5 like u said and possibly as high as 187cm wahsay says on 19/May/09
anelka looks 6'1 if lampard is 6 feet...and with 187cm terry looks like it..but on other hand looks 2 inch shorter then 189 ballack so either ballack is 6'3 or lampard is 5'11 may be frank is week 6 footer then ballack is 6'2.5 aneka 6 terry 6'1.5-6'2 sebby says on 18/May/09
How tall do u guys think Anelka is? He is a hard one to pin down. At times he seems to 6 feet and other times up to 6'2. He is listed from 183cm to 185cm. What do u guys think? Pepper says on 13/May/09
Does anyone know whether footballers height are measured in the morning or in the evening? Some are saying that the footballlers height are overestimated, and usually by an inch or inch and a half ( like Beckham (179-182), Pato (179-177), Torres (185-182)). maybe this comes from the fact that measurements are done in the early morning. Leo says on 1/May/09
Beckham 5ft 11 - no exceptions here, he's blatantly shorter than Federer by 3 inches (Fed's is close to 6ft 2 IMO). Beckham 5ft 11, George Clooney 5ft 10 and Robbie Williams 5ft 11.5 Doug says on 30/Apr/09
Rafa Nadal is 185cm not 182. Ronaldo is also around 185cm, tall for a Portuguese. Beckham is 181-182cm. All guys in this range can pull off the 6'1" or at least a strong 6' in boots which he certainly did next to Tom Cruise. CR_7 says on 30/Apr/09
I totally agree with you Luis...Casillas definitely is close to 180 and many pics prove that.There is a pic of him standing straight next to Raul and he seems at most 2 cms taller than him, so if we assume Raul is between 179-180, Casillas is no more than 6 feet tall.
I also agree that Ronaldo is definitely a strong 6 footer, yet he might be a bit shorter than 185 184 seems accurate for him.
As for Torres, its somewhat trickier....you are saying he is 181, but if you see Liverpool pics, he seems to be the same height as Gerrard, who is definitely 6 ft. Luis says on 27/Apr/09
I can see that all of you are very good observators. I'm a spanish boy and I'm ashamed about how here in my country people exaggerate the famous people's height, specially football players. For instance, in the mayority of websites, Iker Casillas is registred like a 185 cm boy!!!!! That's ridiculous. The tennis player Rafa Nadal is 182 cm and is slightly taller than him. Sergio Ramos, also footballer in Real Madrid, is 183 cm and is also taller than him. Buffon is 191 cm and is a giant next to Casillas, not only 5 cm. And one of my friends saw Casillas in person and she told me that he's 1.80 or 1.81, no more.
To CR_7: Maybe you haven't visited enough webs. Fernando Torres is in almost all of them registred with a height of 1.81 m. Put in Google "Fernando Torres 1.81 m" and you can see that there are a lot of different webs with this height for him.
Cristiano Ronaldo can be perfectly 185 cm. He's not under a strong 6', that's for sure. He looks very tall.
In TV, everyone seems taller than in real life, but if you compared people between them, you can take an idea more or less.
And I'm thinking about many lies about the height of several football players here in spanish teams. I think Robben, Raul, Eto'o, and much more are a little under 180 cm, which is the height that they have in several webs. Apart from this, I've heard a lot of rumours that say that the official webs increase 3 cm more or less the height of almost all football players. In all this things I've told, you have the proof. mamonazo says on 27/Apr/09
beckham is 1.80 (5-11), has a lot of wrinkles, very very skinny and hes balding. Hes a great guy and very humble. mikec says on 24/Apr/09
anybody know if steven gerrard is even 183 cm?or like marginally shorter,because itd be cool knowing if im the same height ashim. sebby says on 23/Apr/09
@ Karl- Totti is a hard one. I beleive he could well be 180cm but maybe as low as 178cm. Etoó, Inzaghi and Totti i have doubted as to whether they are 180cm tall.
IMO - Totti 178cm
-Inzaghi 179cm
- Eto'o 177cm
The best proof that players heights are exaggerated would be Ronaldinho. In 2002 listed as 178cm then eventually 180cm and now 182cm. Google it urselves guys Ronaldinho has never looked as tall as Ronaldo (183cm)it can be seen frm both world cups 02 and 06. Anonymous says on 23/Apr/09

it seems that torres in fact is 6 ft max!!

yeah i agree ossie, beckham looks 5ft 11 tops to me.interesting about lampard though he comes across as 6ft flat or maybe slightly over 6ft. ossie says on 23/Mar/09
This is true greg, it's hard to judge I could say that Lampard and I were the same height, I just believe I was a touch taller on the basis that i was wearing my flat nike trainers and he was wearing shoes! Shoes are always gonna give between half an inch to 1 inch of height. Anyways I'm using Lamps as an example becuase I've met him and he is taller than Becks. I stand by with Becks being just under 5ft 11, I'd say around 5ft 10.75 cause 5ft 11.5 is too generous!! greg says on 20/Mar/09
ossie how sure were you that u were a touch taller than lamps.cos when u meet people your height its hard to judge whose taller unless u look at a reflection or something. sebby says on 20/Mar/09

I am exactly 1.83 and when I met Lampard I was a touch taller than he was,he defintley is around 5 ft 11.5 at the most, thus makes Becks just under 5ft 11 cause Lampard looks a least an inch taller than Becks. Paul says on 15/Mar/09
@Sebby - as for Cristiano, I sometimes notice that he is rather higher than some players who are listed at 178-180 cm, for example, Rooney, Giggs. Some days ago after the end of the game between MU and Inter Cristiano stood next to Zanetti and Giggs, who are both about 177-179. Ronaldo was exactly about 8-10 cm higher. Terry Chan says on 14/Mar/09
Pato is 175 -177cm, sure no more than 5'10
Raul is 178cm
Eto'o is 177 -179cm
Henry is 187cm
Zidane is 185cm
Ronaldo (Brazilian) is 183cm

how tall do u guys reckon Pato is? Hes listed as 179cm but looked so small compared to 183cm Ronaldo. Im 179cm and my best friend is 183cm and theres not much difference between us. Diane says on 6/Mar/09
I expected him to be about 5'10 but he's taller than you think, a little under 6ft in shoes john says on 6/Mar/09
about cristiano...
He IS 184cm. However, he does look taler becasuse of his good musculature, but the truth is that he's not more then 184cm. I saw him on the airport when Portugal played against Serbia in Belgrade last year, and i'm solid 6 ft.
David beckham is about 5.11 (180cm), not more. Tolomeo says on 5/Mar/09
I met Beckham about a year ago, and he is exactly my height. We were both wearing classic sneakers. I am 180cm without shoes. So Beckham is 180cm. THE TITLE: David Beckham height: 5 ft 11.5 in (182 cm)is correct if you add shoes. Lets stop talking **** ppl. sebby says on 2/Mar/09
@Paul- Just wondering if u have ever seen gerrard look taller than Torres? We all know Torres is 185cm and always seems to be slightly taller than stevie g and kuyt who are both listed at 183cm. Brazilian Ronaldo does look a legit 183cm and
C.Ronaldo is no way 5-10 i believe 185cm. SJ says on 1/Mar/09

Ryan Giggs is about 5'11 too I think Comets says on 1/Mar/09
I'll say the Brazilian, Cristiano is about 5'10 at best Paul says on 27/Feb/09
Beckham is 182-183. Cristiano Ronaldo is listed at 184-185, but he is really rather taller than 184. He is a strong 6'1, may be a little taller. 186-187 I think. Gerrard was listed at 6'0 many years ago, when he was only 17-18. And now he is around 187-188. The same thing is van Persie. No way he is only 6'0. He looks strong 6'1 or even more. Many APL players were listed at an early age and so some info is wrong now. Lampard was listed at 182. Really he's 186-187. Terry was listed at 182, then at 186, really he is about 190. sebby says on 27/Feb/09

People who think that Becks is 5ft10 are so wrong, but I've noticed that even the footballers(soccer players) heights are more inflated in MLS than in European leagues. For instance Landon Donovan has been listed 5ft8-5ft9. He looks 5ft7 sometimes even shorter. mikey says on 19/Feb/09

Ok that pic is just strange. He looks little compared to Federer. It might be Federer's footwear. Parker says on 11/Feb/09
This is the one picture I've seen that confuses me. Roger Federer looks a minimum 3 inches taller than Beckham, but is only listed at 6'1 or a tad over almost everywhere.

I'm Italian and I'm a supporter of AC Milan.
Paolo Maldini has been listed at 185 cm for a long time but in the last years he is listed either 186 cm and 187 cm. After seeing him a lot of times and after viewing lots of pics I can say he's 186 cm for sure and Kaka is also. Buffon said once he was 191 cm while Ibrahimovic is 194 cm. As for Becks I guess 180 cm. Anyway soccer players are getting a lot taller than a few years ago. Doug says on 10/Feb/09
Seeing the pictures with Maldini, he appears to have 2.5 inches on Beckham. Maldini is listed at 6'1". In my view Maldini looks and always has done like a 6'2" guy. Becks is not 6' barefoot for sure, 5'11.25-5'11.5" very likely. Legit 5'11" -5'11.5"ers can pull off a 6'1" in a good pair of boots which Beckham often does (and others like Pitt and DeCaprio). See the pics with Tom Cruise etc. This is an accurate figure I think. Most of the time he looks just over the 6' mark in regular shoes. Complex says on 9/Feb/09

Left to right claims/listed are Beckham(5'11.5),Gareth Southgate(6'),Sven Goran Erikson (5'10)David Seaman (6'3/6'4) Tony Blair 6'
He really doesn't look shorter than Blair...guess this is where you get into 'strong' 6 footer (Southgate) and 'weak' 6 footer Blair? Parker says on 9/Feb/09
Hi Sebby - Can't disagree with you over 0.5cm, although if you look closely at the back of Beckham's boot is does look flat against the floor. With legs closed I do think he could be hitting 182, but wouldn't argue against 181. It really confirms the pic against Frank Lampard who I think is a legit 6 footer.
Click Here
Also fits with Michael Owen's 5'8 claim and listing. 5'11 minimum,but not quite a legit 6 footer - close enough to claim it though. AJ says on 9/Feb/09
yes i totally agree with you sebby, those things give 2 cm atleast. Probably 3cm. But than again, 5.11.5 sounds pretty accurate for becks. sebby says on 9/Feb/09
becks legs are apart which does make him lose height but seriously 1-1.5cm shoes. No way ive been playing football for 14 years and have been buying a new pair of shoes every never the same boots again and have never had shoes that dnt give me 2cm or more on hard floor. I have measured countless times with studs and blades and dnt know where it is possible to get 1cm thick boots. AJ says on 9/Feb/09
Buffon is 191 cm, 6 feet 3. wahsay says on 8/Feb/09
yes parker noe i m starting to believe tht rob got him spot on Parker says on 8/Feb/09

Ronaldo the brazilian is listed as 183cm and even on a brazilian tv show said he is 183cm tall. I dnt know how to paste the pics but i have two team photos of real madrid (not the before match photo but a photo of the entire squad properly lined up) and becks looks an inch shorter in both pics. I say 5'11 flat for becks evening height. AJ says on 7/Feb/09
5.11 / 5.11.5 sounds correct.

5'11/5'11.5 - don't think he's a full 6 foot, unless Lampard is close to 6'1 and downgrading himself to 6 foot - the height Frank claims.

I know what you're saying parker, about the already tall ppl wanting to be taller. If I had to guess in general I think ppl at 5'11 and above are less likely to have height issues but some on this site say 5'10 ppl shouldn't have issues but I know alot of legit 5'10 guys that feel somewhat short, 5'10 isn't exactly huge although a decent 5'10, boots, thin build, can easily pull off a 6' footer. That's what I think ppl like Pitt & Clooney are, 5'10ish and use boots and lifts to hit the 6'0 mark. 6'0 and above really should never complain about their height and above 6'3 shouldn't complain about their height unless they're wanting to be shorter, lol! Parker says on 20/Jan/09
I honestly don't know James. Frank claims he is 6 foot on his Facebook page. The problem anyone has reading some of the posts here, particularly on the General Height page, is we may think everyone is so height obsessed. Recently I've read about a guy depressed he is 5'11.5, someone 6'2 desperate to be 6'4, someone 6'5 wanting to be 6'6. I think the vast majority of people above 5'9/5'10 don't give two hoots about their height. Maybe Frank is 6'1/2 inch at his lowest and finds it simple to say 6'. I've heard Alex Ferguson describe Becks as a 6 footer.
I agree with Rob, I don't see Ferguson under 5'10.5
Click Here
Beckham? What's your guess? Parker says on 19/Jan/09
Never look at the hair James. Always look at how the eyes line up. Eyes to nose is about 2 inches. Eyes to mouth about 3. Eyes to bottom of chin or top of head is 4.5 inches. Beckham's eye level falls between Lampards nose - approx 1 inch shorter. wahsay says on 18/Jan/09
aaa gud 1 parker seeing tht pic becks look like 5'11.5 may be 5'11.25 lampard looks 6'0 maybe 6'0.25 and terry looks like he is 6'2:) Complex says on 16/Jan/09
I agree lemon, 5'11 not above. At one point and time someone posted a pic of his entire team in front of a height chart, i've searched and searched but can't find it but Beckham was in shoes and his head looked to hit 5'11.25-5'11.5. I'd like to see it again and judge from his shoes if anyone has that pic or remembers it.. Parker says on 16/Jan/09
Good pic for height estimates. Frank Lampard's facebook site and his club site give him a legit 6'. John Terry 6'2, but I have seen 6'1 and 6'1.5 listings. Michael Owen I heard claim 5'8 and that's what he's listed at on club sites.

No way Beckham is almost 6'0, just compare shoulder lengths or look at Beckhams eye level in comparison to maldini's, becks doesn't even look 5'11 here, looks somewhere in the 5'10 range, same with the shot of him and latifah in sandals. B says on 14/Jan/09

Are you sure 5' 10'' range seems a bit to low for Beckham maybe he just had bad posture with Queen? Latifah mclover says on 14/Jan/09

MD,
I knew it, I knew Reggie was shorter then his listed 6' 0'' but if Reggie is under 5' 11'' Beckham would have to be in the 5' 10 range because Reggie looked 1/2 inch taller. What do you think MD, is it possible for Beckham to be under 5' 11''? wahsay says on 12/Jan/09
ya it is......ballack i know for sure is strong 6'2 cuz i m 6'1.25 and my cousin he have seen ballack and says he would be about 6'2 6'3 he said he would be about 1-2 inches taller then me.....so we can say tht ballack and drogba are like 188cm terry maybe is like 187 cm.....186.5 cm could be his least frank is most confusing.....he maybe 183 cm on a gud day may be:S Greg says on 12/Jan/09
interesting wahsay Is it due to bad posture?. Again I can't get pics up but if you go to google there are images of Lampard not being much shorter than 187cm John Terry and 189cm Drogba. Yet I looked at pictures of Terry and Ballack and Ballack seemed more than a cm taller. Yet pictures of Drogba and Ballack show Drogba to be taller but he does not tower Lampard in any picture I found unlike that one with Ballack. Its confusing! wahsay says on 12/Jan/09
maybe he looks shorter due to his muscular body but he looks 3 inches shorter then ballack check dis
