As an Arsenal fan it is odd, because RVP is nearly as tall as manager Arsene Wenger who says he is 6 foot 4!And I'm not sure Wenger is 6 foot 4 so I'd guess 6 foot 2 for RVP.
HULK says on 31/Jan/12
HOW tall do you think Robin Van persie is?
He's down as 6ft(183) but looks 187 and was previously listed as 6'2(188)

Alan Shearer at 5'10 is absurd.
................................................................................................................................................................

I'd say 5' 8" or 5' 9" is absurd for Shearer, but 5' 10" certainly isn't. Teddy Sheringham, who I've met is in the 5' 11" range, not the full 6' 0" (183 cm) he is often listed. Shearer is at least 1 inch shorter than him. Shearer is also the same height as legit 178 cm Andy Cole, BUT taller than Roy Keane who's also listed at 178 cm - but looks 5' 9.5" to me.

Someone commented on a fan page saying: "Shearer is not as tall as you'd imagine". The fan said he was 5' 11" and that "Shearer was clearly shorter than me, maybe 5' 8" or 5' 9".

I can't believe that low for 1 second. The fan may actually be closer to 6' 0" than 5' 11" flat, who knows!

I personally reckon Shearer's either 5' 10.25" (178 cm) or 5' 10.5" (179 cm)... not above that surely.

Alan Shearer at 5'10 is absurd.

Both Becks and Shearer are 5'11, if not more. Beck is slightly taller.

Shearer has an inch on 5'10 Nicky Butt.

@178
I used to think Beckham was taller than Shearer like you do, but there's hardly anything between them:

I think both Shearer and Beckham are 5'10" flat, 5'10.5" MAX. And I think Andy Cole is around 174cm, but I agree with your other estimates.
Adz says on 23/Jan/12
I reckon Becks is 184 out of bed and 182 at night. And I think Jonathon Ross is 6ft 1 now and has lost his half inch (if he was even 6ft1.5 as he always claims)
brooksy says on 23/Jan/12
@dean I would probably be a shade under 183 at night or maybe the same? I am not sure.

From far away Becks looked around my height, but when I got closer he was slightly shorter, although he had his football boots on. I think for Beckham 5'10.5-5'11 is about right. He is kind of a hard one to pin down a little bit..

Sir Alex Ferguson: 5' 10" (178 cm)
Michael Owen: 5' 7.25" (171 cm)
Chris says on 21/Jan/12
Mr Killer Shrimp, I can assure you that David Beckham is a 5'11 guy. He was listed at that height in 1996, when he began to be regular in the starting lineup of the Manchester Utd. Years later when he became famous, they pumped his height to 6'.

5'11 (180 cms) for Beckham, no more, no less.
178 says on 20/Jan/12
Some footballers heights (in my opinion) - all "night heights":

David Beckham: 5' 11" (180 cm)
Gary Lineker: 5' 9.25" (176 cm)
Teddy Sheringham: 5' 11.25" (181 cm)
Alan Shearer: 5' 10" (178 cm)
Roy Keane: 5' 9.25" (176 cm)
Andy Cole: 5' 10" (178 cm)
Wayne Rooney: 5' 8.5" (174 cm)

What do you all reckon? Feel free to comment.
AD says on 17/Jan/12
Brooksy has supplied a photo of himself stood with Becks with their heads level and he's 6'0" ...Jonathan Ross claims 6'1.5" which looks about right in this picture with 6'1.5" Russell Brand ... Click Here
Becks doesn't look any more than an inch and a half smaller than Ross. The 182cm listing is the only one that makes sense ...181 at the lowest.
Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 16/Jan/12
If the Rock is 6'3 as listed here then there is no way johnathon ross is anything over 185cm clearly from that clip Vegas sent.
However even if Ross is 185cm Beckham doesnt look less than 181cm next to Ross.

Beckham has worn lifts on the odd occasion (very rarely), but he is 5' 11" (180 cm) minimum.

A 5' 10" Beckham would make:

Gordon Brown 5' 10"
Tom Cruise 5' 6.75"
George Clooney 5' 9"
Gary Lineker 5' 8.5"
Alan Shearer 5' 9.5"
Roy Keane 5' 9"
etc...
_________________________________________________

Actually I agree with those estimates, except I would say Lineker is 5'9" flat (that's his own claim) and Shearer is 5'10".
Silent d says on 8/Jan/12
Mr killer shrimp. Jonathon ross is 187cm. Stop saying he is 180cm. Beck is 181cm flat.

When I was a kid I believed he was the 6'0" he was listed at everywhere.

Then I started thinking he was 5'11" range.

Now I think he's 5'10" flat, 5'10.5" at the absolute MAX.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 5/Jan/12
He was clearly shorter than Jonathan Ross who I believe to be 5'11" range:

The more I think about it, the more I'm getting convinced that Beckham is 5'10" flat and johno and Physics Enemy were right all along.
Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 4/Jan/12
@ Brooksy if your a legit 6ft(I.E 182.88cm at night) then Beckhams "under 180c" guesses are out the window. I think flat on 181cm is his height if your around 183cm at night. whats your lowest night height brooksy?
brooksy says on 4/Jan/12
Last time I was measured was when I got my wisdom teeth taken out late last year, when I was measured before the surgery. It was about maybe 4 or 5pm in the late afternoon at 183 cms, barefoot. So I would of probably been around the same, I think. Yeah he was definitely wearing football boots as he had just finished training and I was wearing a pair of chucks. :)
ChiasmataX says on 3/Jan/12
@brooksy football shoes have cleats, he had quite a bit of footwear advantage over you and he still look a bit shorter. I would say he's bang on 5'11 or 180.34cm and not 182cm.
Dural says on 2/Jan/12
He looks half an inch shorter than you brooksy, but also has a half inch footwear advantage. What time of the day are you 6'? If you are a legit 6' I would say Beckham is a legit 5'11".

What do you guys think of it?

@Ads Do you mean Alan Shearer is 180-182 in football boots or 180-182 barefoot?
Ads says on 29/Dec/11
I have met Alan Shearer, in football boots, he's around 180-182. No doubt
Dural says on 29/Dec/11
@Dean 5ft 9.25

Agreed, I think 179-180cm is fair for Becks.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 28/Dec/11
178 says on 26/Dec/11
Rob, do you agree that Alan Shearer looks 5' 10.5" (179 cm)?

I've seen him appear 5' 10" flat quite a few times, but I'm not sure he is.
[Editor Rob: shearer could be 179-180 range]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

@178 and @Editor Rob
I agree, 179-180cm is not a bad estimate at all for Alan Shearer. I think he's definitely below the 6 foot mark he is listed at on many sites. He's clearly shorter than some other players that are also listed at 6 foot like Teddy Sheringham and Matt Le Tissier: Click Here . Shearer never looked taller than Beckham either who is also below 6 foot.

Phil jones out of interest whats his height,seen it listen as 5 11 but surely this is wrong he looks a good six footer?
Yaspaa says on 23/Dec/11
He wasn't 16 or 17 when he was listed at 5'10, it was just before he met Posh, she's made sure he's always looked taller since then.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 22/Dec/11
Dural's picture of Beckham with Pele, ChiasmataX's picture with Queen Latifah and this picture with Taylor Lautner ( Click Here ) have convinced me that 182cm for DB is pushing it. 180cm flat listing would be fair.
Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 19/Dec/11
@ Dural - With Pele he is looking 179-180cm and thats a fair reflection. Id say hes never above 181cm..about 180 flat at night for beckham is fair. not as low as 179cm and certainly not 178cm.
Dural says on 14/Dec/11
Beckham with 5'6.5" listed Péle.

jtm says on 12/Dec/11
beckham is not 5'10. he is more than just a half inch taller than 5'9.5 george clooney.
ChiasmataX says on 9/Dec/11
I just also want to add that Beckham is no doubt over 180cm in soccer shoes with cleats and in dress shoes though, in picture where he's near barefoot such as the one with Queen Latifah he looked under 180cm for sure.
brooksy says on 9/Dec/11
I met Becks last week as he is doing his tour with the LA Galaxy in Australia. I was lucky enough to meet him and get a picture taken with him.I am 6 foot on the dot and was wearing chucks while he was wearing football boots and I was a little bit taller. Maybe under an inch, so this listing is bang on. I will have to post the picture up when I transfer it to my computer.
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 9/Dec/11
About David Beckham - 5'10 flat for Beckham is simply too low IMO. The fact that he was listed at around 5'10 in his early playing days means nothing, he could have been 16-17 years old at that time and could have grown a few more cms since then. I just don't see this guy below 180. He's about as tall as Tony Blair who is listed here at 183cm ( Click Here ) and he's about as tall as Robbie Williams who also is listed here at 183cm. If both Tony Blair and Robbie Williams are listed too high, then I guess 179 isn't impossible, but I think 180-182cm is more likely.

About Alan Shearer - I've always thought Beckham was a tiny fraction taller than Shearer, like in this picture: Click Here . On this fan site Shearer is listed at 5'11: Click Here . His height is hard to pin down, but judging from all the pictures I've seen of him with Michael Owen, David Beckham, Roy Keane etc, I believe his range is 179-181.5cm.
ChiasmataX says on 8/Dec/11
I don't know if this pict have been posted or not, here he is with Queen Latifah who listed 177cm on here (she might be shorter). Beckham looked under 180cm with the Queen and they have similar footwear and posture.

zidane = 6'1" = 185cm
ronaldo = 6'0" = 183cm
figo = 5'11" = 180cm
beckham = 5'11" = 180cm same as figo
Terry Chan says on 8/Dec/11
Goalkeepers often exaggerate their height, no matter now or in the past

Examples:

Oliver Kahn(184-185cm), but listed as 188cm, he is at least 2 inches shorter than Jan Lehmann (190cm), at least 1 inch short than Ballack (188cm)

Dea Gea, listed as 193cm, but should be 185-186cm
hs2011 says on 7/Dec/11
Shearer was listed for many years at 1.80m. I've seen Beckham at both 1.80m and 1.82m.

Daniel Sturridge at 6'2" is strange since he doesn't look over 5'10", which incidentally is what this Chelsea FC fansite lists him at: Click Here
akim says on 7/Dec/11
Yeah, I agree Sturridge consistently looks 5'9-5'10 next to 6'2 David Luiz and 6'2.5 Drogba in last night's game
SAK says on 4/Dec/11
Beckham is no lower then 181cm.
178 says on 4/Dec/11
Just seen a range of photos of Alan Shearer. He's 179 cm maximum. He's at least an inch and a half shorter than 6' 0" Teddy Sheringham.

Sheringham: 6' 0" (183 cm)
Beckham: 5' 11" (180 cm)
Shearer: 5' 10.25" or 5' 10.5"
Keane: 5' 10" (178 cm)
Lineker: 5' 9.5" (177 cm)
Owen: Not quite 5' 8"
greg says on 2/Dec/11
I've met sturridge outside stamford bridge on match day. I'm 184 and he's about 177 178, very nice guy, don't get the 188 listing at all.
1.85 m, 83 kg says on 2/Dec/11
Rob, I know it's not completely related but does go to show how footballers' listed heights can be completely inaccurate. Do you know of a player called Daniel Sturridge of Chealsea FC? I haven't failed to see him listed at 1.88 m (6'2") but looks more in the 1.78 m (5'10") region. Would you agree with this estimate?
[Editor Rob: yeah, no way is he that tall. 6ft 2 is many inches too much.]
Mr-KILLER-SHRIMP says on 1/Dec/11
I could buy 180 flat for both Alan Shearer and David Beckham.
Yaspaa says on 27/Nov/11
Got listed at 179 in early career, got more famous and his height suddenly shot up, very strange, fame actually makes you taller.
178 says on 27/Nov/11
Alan Shearer is 5' 10.25" (178 cm). He's 0.75" taller than 5' 9.5" Gary Lineker (who I've met face to face).
Godred says on 26/Nov/11
@Thanapat - noooooo he isn`t,180 for me.
Thanapat says on 24/Nov/11
no beckham isn't 182 , he is about 183-183.6-8 Cm.
Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 23/Nov/11
I agree Rob should change the 1.82cm for Beckham and put 5'11.25(181cm) at night is absolute max! but these 178 claims are ludacris also.
Argument should be between 179-181 nothing else is possible. Most likely no lower than 180cm night. If Beckham was in robs height challenge Id guess about 180.2-180.6 somewhere in that range at night possibly brushing 181cm midday.
A strong 5'11 guy but definetly more 5'11 than anywhere near 6ft.

As for Alan Shearer I agree Killer hes hard to pin down, but Id say 5'10-5'11 range is his height but possibly more a strong 179 weak 180 is where Id peg Alan but sometimes he does look a bit more average 5'10/178cm. I doubt hes as low as 177 or as high as 182 because he just doesnt look that short or tall 178cm min 180cm max IMO.
avi says on 23/Nov/11
Rob i think he is 5'11 flat at best. I do not think he under 5'10.75 but he never looks over 5'11. normally looks like Owen Wilsons height of 5'10.5-5'10.75 in pics and he is skinny.
AD says on 22/Nov/11
He's surely got to be around his listed height of 1.82 if he's the same height as Robbie Williams?
Tman says on 18/Nov/11
1,80m
Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
A 5' 11" guy with his skinny build and proportions would look tall. He doesn't. He's a flat 5' 10". He gets owned by 6' (+ change) Ramsey.
Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
Gordon Ramsay is 6' and change MAX, he was measured 6' 1.375" in footwear. He even said 6' for himself during his playing days. Beckham's getting owned in comparison. He's 5' 10".
Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
He's 5' 10". Listed at that in his early days, got inflated over time.
johno says on 14/Nov/11
Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
Johno you're an idiot downgrading everybody by 2 inches.
______________________________________________________________________

5'11.5 listing looks about right?

Listen why do you upgrade everyone? He would be 6'1 in stilts, yes...

Your spreading your nonsense everywhere. Some of your estimates are deliberately misleading. You act impartial but it is sort of perverse, since your attention is to ultimately upgrade and i don't believe you actually believe your estimates. Your nearly as bad as ''James'', Your very annoying. Theres trolls and then theres ''tools'' matey, difference being one is cynical and has no other tangible gain and the other ...................

You think a flat 5'11 at some point but above 5'10 and then you think 5'11.5 estimate is about right? What does that even mean?

Shearer is not in the 5'11 range either and hulk hogan does not have 24 inch pythons.

I think alot of individuals must be suspect like i am of your pseudonym, ''shaun'' and your estimates and theres other obvious usernames that have the same agenda. I dnt knw what Rob makes of it but i know what i do.

Beckham, nothing beyond 5'10 - 5'10.5, not 5'11.5 like you say
george clooney 5'9 - 5'9.5, nothing above 5'10.5 like you suggest and that goes for brad pitt to
Matt damon 5'8.5, not in the range 5'9 range like you suggest
Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
Johno you're an idiot downgrading everybody by 2 inches.
Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
I think a flat 5'11" at some point in the day but he's above 5'10". The 5'11.5" listing is about right as he can look near 6'1" in Timberland like boots.
Shaun says on 12/Nov/11
Shearer always looks 5'11" range to me. Tallish but not tall.
AD says on 9/Nov/11
I really don't buy the idea that Becks is a 5'10" guy, there's just no need ...there's just way too much photographic evidence that he's around 5'11.5" as he's listed here. Robbie Williams always looks 4 inches taller than 5'7.5" Gary Barlow.. and there's really no difference between Becks and Williams

i believe johno and trust andrea a bit. maybe zidane is max 184cm , beckham is between 178-179cm i was thinking john terry could be dead on 185-186cm so maybe will ferrell climb below 6'1.5 , maria sharapova could have a serious 6'2 claim. shes about 1.5" under ferrell along 6'1.25 federer.
master says on 2/Nov/11
maybe is right andrea. if you compared kaka(186cm) with zidane (185cm) . kaka looks too more taller than him.

ANDREA[ITA] says on 2/Nov/11
Lan, zidane is one of the few celebs i met and trust me, hes 6'! Maybe 6'0.25 but not over and i am sure of it! I met him in a restaurant and we stood side by side! I always thought beckham was 5'11 flat but im now starting to think hes even less, if you say hes 2 in under him, hes no more than 179!
_____________________________________________________________________________

Based on your 6'0 - 6'0.25 zidane estimate, beckhams eyeline looks a solid 2 inches or maybe 2.2 inches shorter then zidane. This would push beckham into the low end of the 5'10 range. A flat 5'10, also the possibility of looking like a weak 5'10

Zidane 6'0 - 6'0.5
beckham 5'10

Heres david beckham with james corden. Corden is around 5'7.5 - 5'8 in heighy. Surprisengly, although corden did have the footwear advantage, beckham doesn't seem to have that much height on him.

Beckham is not in the 5'11 range. The 5'10 range would be the best bet, but with corden he is looking like a weak 5'10. The angles are not perfect but corden makes beckham look shorter the 5'10 even. The same way prince william did.

James corden 5'7.5 - 5'8
David beckham 5'10 - 5'10.5 (With corden he is looking 5'9.75)
LAN Jiao says on 2/Nov/11
andrea, zidane is 6'0 as you say beckham is no way over 5'10. while will smith is only on 3-4cm top beckham ,smith would be 5'11.5 max terribly impossible. will smith is max 184cm. comparison from beckham to 6'1.5 listed john terry beckham looks a solid 7cm dip under terry height.
john terry is tall as will ferell whom was't 6'3 as his words is a huge proof on ferell page and google image hads it, if zidane is 6'0 ferell and john terry would be a flat 6'1 not a way. zidane is at least 6'0.5 and beckham 179cm could have handled. if you still think zidane is 6'0.25 that assume to make under 179cm for beckham is a less chance on earth. trust me.

terry 186.5-187cm = ferrell
beckham maybe 179cm
zidane maybe 184cm

I'm still baffled about Alan Shearer's height. He can look anywhere from 177-182cm lol, it's impossible to pin down this guy's height. Here he is with Gareth Southgate (who is listed as 183cm on w-pedia):

beckham is 182 cm
Dean 5ft 9.25 says on 23/Oct/11
Wow Alan Shearer has been exposed! lol. Killer in the first of your pics thats as good a shot you can get. next to Owen he looks 7 maybe 8 cm taller at best. If owen is 172cm at best Shearer is 180cm. I cannot see taller than 180cm now lol and probably 179cm.
With Linekar he looks maybe 2cm taller. Linekar claims 5'9 meaning 177cm for shearer lol? Personally Linekar is more 177cm and Shearer 179-180cm.

Does Philip Lahm take a size 5 shoe? On Bayern Munich's website it says he wears a size 38.5 shoe? He is 1.70m which isn't a particulary short height but you would think he was 1.60m with feet that size!

This is not too uncommon. A good friend of mine is 1.75m and he wears size 39 EU.... I for instance wear size 45 and I'm 1,86m but I know plenty of others around my height who wear like 42-43-44... I've even encountered a 1,96m person wearing size 44.... I also know a 1,70m guy with size 45 though so it's all possible....

Everyone listen it! Check google image beckham with 185cm Zidane, it will convince full 5cm Zidane taller than beck. DB is 5'11 nothing more!

Does anyone know Alan Shearer's height? He is listed as 183 on w-pedia and he indeed looks about as tall as Beckham in this picture:
Click Here
However David Cameron is listed here as 184 and he looks way taller than Shearer in that picture. Also Gary Lineker is listed as 177 here and there doesnt seem that much height difference between him and Shearer. 180 for Beckham and Shearer is more realistic than 182-183 I think.

He is at the beginning of tall range but he can often look tiny in comparison to some people. His bodyguard I've seen him next to is around 6'9" and absolutely dwarfs him. In LA though there seems to be far more super tall people than elsewhere.

beckham is 182 cm , lampard 183 cm and gerrard is 183 too
AD says on 30/Aug/11
He had a late growth spurt which he mentions in one of his books, the 180cm listing is from his initial profile when he turned pro at Manchester United around 17 years old. If he had a late growth spurt then he could well have been still growing when this profile was taken, plenty of 17 year old boys still have a few centimeters to grow so 182cm is not unlikely... there's plenty of photographic evidence to suggest that's his height.
hs2011 says on 28/Aug/11
Beckham looked 2" shorter than Jonathan Ross, who claims 6'1.5" and looks around that, so he's not under 5'11"-5'11.5".
greg says on 28/Aug/11
Footballers heights are tough to call as they obviously inflated. I got a photo with chelsea striker daniel sturridge yesterday and he's listed on the chelsea page as 188 cm. I'm 184 cm and he was honestly no more than 179 cm. He was originally listed at around 178 cm so I don't get why he got such a massive boost in height. Do you know why football teams inflate players height rob or does anyone else on the forum know?
Physics Enemy says on 24/Aug/11
I fail to see why a person listed at 179 and 180 cm in his early playing days, would actually be 182 cm in the afternoon today. He must have 'grown'.
david says on 23/Aug/11
beckham is 182 cm

He's taller than Figo (1m80) and smaller than Zidane (1m85). SO 1m82 seems ok. I'm 5'10 and i do not have any problem with this !!
James says on 22/Aug/11
Ramsey may not even be 187cm.

With Landon Donovan might give the illusion off looking taller than 180cm becuase of his hair.

This is what i think
David Beckham 5'11.25 (181cm)
Gordan Ramsey 6'1 (185cm) or 6'1.25 (186cm)?



5'11 flat could be closer too the truth than 5'11 1/2?

You know 183cm does seem belivable for Beckham if Lampard is a smidge over 6'.

You guys are probably short and claim to be tall on internet , who cares about one or two cm , I've met this guy in L.A and he looked 6' as me , he could be shorter or taller than that, you guys seems to be happy to claim a guy shorter than he really is just to increase your lack of height, take it easy , sick guys
Holves says on 13/Aug/11
yes , beckham is 182 I met him personally and he looked my height I'm a legit 6' man
Demon says on 11/Aug/11
Ok how could a 5f10 man be considered as short,but a 5ft10 woman be called giant,super tall and such???
And dont start with the theory that, a women the same height as the man will look taller, because of proportions,because i have seen this,and its not true!
James says on 8/Aug/11
bad camera angle but i think rooney has a hard time looking over 5'8 in that photo if beckham is closer too 5'11 flat...... i know becks looked a weak 5'11 with 190cm prince william but next too 184cm Frank Lampared Beckham can really pull of looking 5'11 1/2 i think.

i agree with Physics Enemey that 174cm might be closer too truth for rooney and maybe 176cm in shoes?
Physics Enemy says on 8/Aug/11
But Rooney is probably 174 cm rather than 176 cm. Beckham was listed 179 cm before becoming famous. I think he's exactly that. If he was really 5' 11.5" he'd be claiming/reported at over 6 foot. That's how it works.

Thanks Dural - So he was listed 179 cm, that makes sense then. Because that's the height he looks. He looks to be 5' 11" and perhaps a weak one. This is a generous listing, in line with the growth of his fame.

LOL Shaun what about a young clint eastwood being a david beckham lookalike?

Yeah I've always thought that. When Beckham has a scruffy beard and bouffed hair like he did around October last year and wears a denim shirt and scowls he really does look very much like Clint in the 1960s. Beckham's role model though is Steve McQueen.

Her shoes aren't 2cm thicker than his. There's more than a 4cm difference between him and 186cm Roger Federer.

Wasn't he listed at 5' 11" when he was playing for Preston North End? Has he really grown since then? Unlikely. Most of the photo evidence suggests he's 180cm rather than 182cm. He looks noteably shorter than legitimate 6ft-6ft1 men.

Dural, Wozniacki is wearing shoes that are at least 2cm thicker than Beckham's football boots whose studs are completely implanted into the ground.. I think 182cm is an accurate measurement for Beckham. Perhaps 181cm.

- Heres a picture of david beckham and michael owen

Click Here

Michael owen is listed as 5'7.75 and was listed as a flat 5'7 on the old eurosports website and still is. Owen has always been described as short and at times insulted as such. Beckham at the most has about 3inches on him. That would make Beckham in the 5'10 to 5'10.75 range, similar in height to robbie williams.
Matt says on 17/Jul/11
Take a look at these pictures:
Click Here

Kaka is listed to have 185cm and is towering over Beckham. Both are using the same shoes. Also, Beckham is smaller than Sergio Ramos that is in flats, while beckham is using soccer shoes (adds a good 3cm).
Sergio Ramos is listed to have 183cm.

So, no way Beckham has 182cm. 178-180cm max.

Beckham's look alike is even skinnier than Beckham 28 waist and 10 stone something is crazy skinny for a legit 5'11" guy. Becks is probably a 30 waist and 11 stone odd. I doubt he is as skinny as a 28 waist.

@ GH7 - No way is Becks as low as 179cm. However Like I said I personally think hes clearly not a 6 footer and when a guy is clearly not a 6 footer then he isnt over 181 because a guy whoes nighttime height is 181-182.5 he will look 6ft most of the time. 180.5-181 is my bet strong 5'11-5'11.25
Dean 5\'9.25 says on 30/May/11
@ mee - no 5'10 is never a little man. anything under 173(5'8) is a little man.

Looking at Suarez..in that pic he has at least a cm extra footing that Kenny Dalgliesh So Id say Suarez is probably more 5'9 barefoot than 5'10..176cm about my height would be more realistic IMO

5-11 and skinny, he looks about 160.
Dean says on 11/May/11
Rob please answer this even though slightly off Beckhams height.
Constantly Luis Suarez the new Liverpool player is called "little man" or "for his size" or comparing him to Carlos Tevez because hes the "same size" (Tevez cant be more than 172cm) or something along these lines..So I thought lets look his height up and he comes up 5'11.25 181cm!?

So i think obviously "what a load of rubbish calling a 181cm small? He must not be 181cm!" I look at him and ok I think nah hes not 181 but to me he does look at least 5'9-5'10 and could be as high as 179cm..but calling that range diminutive is surely ridiculous?

As your the expert I would like your opinion heres a pic next to Andy Carroll(left down as 191 6'3) and Kenny Dalglish(middle down as 5'8) How tall would you say Suarez(right) is Rob?
Ok we know footballers lie and we dont know for sure if Dalgleish is 173 or Carroll is 191 but presume they are both telling the truth, how tall is he?

If terry is 189cm then Becks is 181.5
If Terry is 187cm then Becks is 179.5..I think that difference is 7-8cms.

For Me Beckham is more 180 than 182 flat nighttime..180.5-181 lowest with a solid 181 midday is Beckham's safest bet..Rob I think he needs changing?

David Beckham's heights are:

Morning (out of bed)= 5'11.75" (1.82 m)

After 5-10 hrs= 5'11" (1.80 m)

DMan says on 16/Mar/11
A 4 inch difference means, the shorter mans head will come upto the taller mans eyes, and clearly Beckham's head is above Terry's eyes and is therefore a minimum of 3 inches shorter then Terry, basically he is 5ft11.5/182cm as his listing already suggests.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well Terry's head is very much dropped foward, if it was to be upright, then taking into account Beckham's big hair in general, probably looks to be struggling with it.

I don't think Terry's 6'2.5 either, Drogba is noticeably a bit taller, and he is certainly a 6'2.5 man.

AD if he shaved his hair of in that pic the top of his head would be 1 inch above williams eye level.

To me william looks 4 inches taller than beckham and there is debate if william is even 191cm?

I think 180cm or 181cm is more accurate than 182cm. i think he should be downgraded back to 181cm like before.

I see 4 inches between prince william and david beckham. harry looks 186cm or 187cm.
