188cm now rob?

If he is just 181cm, what would Nick Carter and Leonardo Dicaprio make then. I just observed them in their appearance on Ellen Degeneres Show. He was way towering Ellen. If you youtube the videos, you will know what I'm talking about. I've also checked Crais Ferguson Show were Dev Patel was on, he was even a little bit taller than Craig. As what I've said you can youtube them, then you will be the judge.

Jasper 6'2 isnt ridiculously tall for indian.btw,he's of indian origin not indian i believe.In cities like mumbai,delhi,Chandigarh its not difficult to see a 6'2 guy.

Anonymous says on 2/Mar/10
My prediction is taht Dev's height is between a low 186 and low 188, He may be 188cm out of bed on a morning and then goes down to 187 or a 186 later in day, so he takes hsi average of 187cm, He is around 6'1 1/2 but he could claim 6'2 I guess if he measures 188, more likely 187 though than 188.

Jasper says on 1/Mar/10
this guy is ridiculously tall for an indian dude. i went travelling around india/asia last summer and im 6'2 and was head/head and shoulders taller than pretty much everyone i saw out there.

Rob you think it may be time to make him 6'2?

Don Samos says on 15/Feb/10
World average height is 5'7"- 5'8" for males.The average 5'4' was 10 years ago.According to scientist the height average will be 6'0" for most countries around the world in 30 years time as that is the peak height for a human male.

This 191cm guy is quite cool says on 17/Dec/09
Rob do you think he might actually be 6ft 2in now?

191cm is Royalty says on 12/Dec/09
Looks a solid 6ft 2in now and around the same height as Nick Hoult maybe 1cm shorter.

ZAQ says on 25/Nov/09
I saw him recently i dont think he's 6'1 1/2

He could see over my head, so i'd say 6'0 is more like it maybe 6'1 maximum

Get your facts straight MD before blowing up on us regarding patel's indian ancestry. Genes play an important role on height and 187cm is tall in any industrialized country and super tall if we consider the "whole world" do you know that the avg for a male worldwide is 165cm-167cm?

Uh, correction "dani", the average in the world is "5'7-5'8" area based on the countries' average. In western countries it's taller but I can asure you 6 feet tall isn't an average in any country (except for the denmark alps region). Almost mostly genetics attributes to height, and enviroment is another.

Anonymous says on 7/Nov/09
He looks very tall to me in Slumdog Millionaire, but yea he is skinny that makes him look taller than he really is. But I think he's 6'2. Don't think he's shorter than this

dani says on 25/Oct/09
This guy is British, born and bred in England, fully integrated, and with their diets and social programs, so all of this talk about being "tall for an Indian" is just stupid. He's over average for just about every population in the world."

Being an indian,I'll say the average varies in every part.In mumbai,local trains are best way to get an average estimate.Barely 5'5 is avearge height in mumbai.6'2 is definitely tall by indian standards.

Dany says on 18/Oct/09
He looks tall, I thought he was more like 181cm than 187cm. You looks taller because of him being skinny. He's really tall for having indian ancestry.India's avg for a male person is like 167-168.

Dany says on 18/Oct/09
This guy is super tall to have indian roots. The indian average for men is like 5"6(167cm)and i visited India last year and saw many short people however i saw taller people among young dudes. Im 5"11(182cm) and overtowered many people. I didn't see a 6"3(190cm) in my visit.

carl says on 2/Oct/09
I reckon Dev Patel is around the 6'2 mark- 187/188cm, He is around 6'2 for sure.

steve says on 22/Sep/09
Dev Patel is tall but I doubt he is 6'3, it is just because he is very skinny, he gives off the impression of being taller besides you dont really see him to anyone who is in the 6'0 to 6'4 range, Freida pinto is 5'6 so he is going to look tall, I would say 6'1 1/2 is about right.

Moke says on 15/Sep/09
Legit 6'2 (maybe 6'2.25). Actually looks in almost every pic 6'3 due to his frame.

matt says on 9/Sep/09
It would be even better if we saw Dev with guys who are 6'1 or more then we would find out how tall he is, Dev i would say is around 6'1 or 6'2, he seems like a lanky kid though is very skinny so he can appear to look taller than he actually is.

jon says on 8/Sep/09
Anil Kapoor is 5'11- 1.80m
Dev Patel is 6'1 1/2- 1.87m

Linke says on 3/Sep/09
How tall is anil kapoor,5'9?He has claimed 5'11 in past

tom says on 1/Sep/09
Check Dev out, he looks taller than 1.87m i think, He is 19 so he may still grow a bit more, he may look taller as he very thin so he carries out his hieght more, Do you think there's a chance Dev Patel is 6'2 or a bit more?

matt says on 31/Aug/09
Hi, Rob, Do you think it's possible that Dev is taller than 1.87m, he is 19 so he may still be growing a bit, he may have stopped though too. He looks very tall though he is very skinny so his height carries out more, with anyone under 21, their heights can be updated as they can still grow.

lee says on 23/Aug/09
Dev Patel looks taller than 1.87m unless its because he is so skinny he appears to look taller than say a guy who was pretty much the same height as him but who carried more weight, He is 19 so he could possibly be over 1.87m as his height would get updated if he grows more.

john says on 23/Aug/09
Dev is 187 cm correct steve, he is about 6'1 1/2 or 6'2, he may be 1.88m now as he is 19 so he may still be growing who knows, he may he have stopped growing on the other hand, he is a good height.

MD says on 20/Aug/09
Steve, did you not read Semih's post. He or she said that Robert Pattison's height is 1.82m, not Dev's. Please read more carefully.

steve says on 20/Aug/09
Dev Patel is about 1.87m tall, about 6'1 1/2 or 6'2, No way is he 1.82m he is taller than that, 1.82m is 5'11 1/2 and he would be over the 6 foot

semih says on 19/Aug/09

Hello everyone I am a boy of 17 years I have birthday on 24 May, I will know whether it is possible for me to grow 6 cm more I am now 179 cm tall. I know that you jakir have seen it but can you prove it is are here anyon else who have experienced it? my dad is 181 cm tall my brother who is 22 years old is 182 cm tall and my oldest brother is 180 cm tall and when i was about 13-14 years old i was 172 cm tall

flash_of_eden says on 12/Aug/09
Patel could be 6'2", it's not impossible. I am close to 6'2", a little over 130 pounds and Patel looks to have about the same body type as me, albeit a little broader.

MD says on 11/Aug/09
Something has to give, here. Either Pattinson is significantly shorter than listed, or Dev is over 6'2".

Clay says on 11/Aug/09
yoyo, anything under 6'1 for Patel is not possible. He looked easily 2 inches taller than Rob Pattinson and was the same height as Hugh Jackman. He is now 6'2.

yoyo says on 11/Aug/09
i mean it when i was at age18. im a big guy now at 6ft4.5, 215pounds. At 19, i believe Patel could still be growing taller.

yoyo says on 8/Aug/09
i was once at 6ft and 113pounds, people would see me like 6ft1.5 they thought. Dev Patel does look near 6ft1.5, but i guess not a truely height. his more like 6ft0.5(184cm)barely or pushing 6ft1 for his 120pounds(maybe) weight..

Tom says on 6/Aug/09
Dev is a talneted up and coming kid, Who stands a impressive 6 foot 1 1/2 tall or 187 cm, as good as 6'2, very good GCSE results and also has A levels so he clearly is a smart lad too, very educated and level headed.

karzan says on 5/Aug/09
He used to go to my school, yea hes about 6ft 2.

flash_of_eden says on 20/Jul/09
Less than 125? You must be daft. He's very thin sure, but at 6'1.5" he'd look like a corpse weighing that little. I'd say more like 135-145.

Clay says on 5/Jul/09
His thin body is due to a fast metabolism, you could feed him cheeseburgers all day and it wouldn't make a difference. Wait till he's in his 20's and he will probably fill out.

Jakir says on 4/Jul/09
Clay, Yes I had facial hair and arm pit hair from the age of 13

Ross says on 3/Jul/09
Dev Patel is 6'1 1/2- 187 cm and just 19, very healthy height for a 19yr old lad of indian genetics too, very talneted youngster.

It's true thinner people look taller than bigger people if you have 2 guys same height, say 6'2, the thinner one would look taller but wouldn't be,

Sam says on 28/Jun/09
He looks freakishly tall because he's so damn thin.. I'm 6' but used to way 125 and people easily gave me 6'2.. I think he may even weigh less than that at his height...someone get him a double cheeseburger

Clay says on 24/Jun/09
Jakir did you have facial hair and armpit hair at 17 ?

Jakir says on 22/Jun/09
I'm a British Asian, currently 22. at 16 I was still my 5'7", then between the age of 17-20 I grew another 3", now my morning height is 5ft 10.25". I guess I have reached my adult height now. Considering my elder brother is 5'8" and my Dad is 5'9"

ZAQ,ur post are full of bogus where do yu come with crap like most of the guys stop at 15,asian stop at 14-15.Do u have any source or are u trying to be a Nostradamus

Das says on 13/Jun/09
Its funny that clay has related india to poverty and being malnourished,gives a good example of ignorant foreigners who view india through documemtaries n movies.If u havent seen india then dont comment.Lifestyle depends on financial conditon and not the country u come from.I'm a rajput indian and i bet i have a better lifestyle than you.Anyways,do u have any intention of adding anil kapoor,looked 5'9 beside patel.

yoyo says on 3/Jun/09
i never notice his this tall.. thought he just reach 6ft..

Clay says on 1/Jun/09
Actually all the posts that you see now are from seperate days, they would not show up at all so I just made more incase their was a servor issue, now Rob has chosen to add them all on the same day.

Clay says on 1/Jun/09
MD, All the posts were made on seperate days, they just didn't shopw up for days on end so I made more because I thought there was a problem. Before you make cliche internet insults like "grow up" take the time to ask the person what the problem is.

SAM says on 1/Jun/09
i saw this guy on ellen hes about 6ft3-4.

MD says on 31/May/09
Clay, three consecuitive posts where completely unnecessary for what you needed to say. The last two, in fact, were nearly indentical. Grow up.

Clay says on 31/May/09
Zaq there is no rule that says a guy has to stop growing once he reaches 16. I'm from the same part of the world as Dev and I grew well into my 20's. Stop acting like you can control when Dev stops growing, you can't.

Clay says on 30/May/09
Zaq, guys can continue growing till they are in their 20's. You have no way of knowing when Dev stopped growing. Stop acting like you measure him on a weekly basis.

Clay says on 29/May/09
Rob why are most of my posts on this page not showing up ? For example the ones where I explain to Zaq that a man can grow into his 20's and it's not possible for him to know exactly when Patel stopped growing.

Clay says on 29/May/09
Zaq you have no way of being 100% sure if he stopped growing at 16, guys can continue to grow into their 20's. He does look a little taller now than he did a few months ago. I'd bet my life that he has grown a half inch in the last few months. I'm for South Asia myself(Pakistan) and I continued to grow until I was about 24. As for you facial hair theory, I could grow a full mustache and beard by the time I was 16 and yet I didn't stop gorwing for many years after that.

Clay says on 29/May/09
Also he grew up in England, not in a poverty filled part of India, stuff like nutrition and fitness does play a part in whether or not you reach your maximum peak height.

Clay says on 29/May/09
Zaq why are you so desperate to believe Dev has compeltely stopped growing ? What difference does it make to you ? You are so passionate about it that you even go as far as to insult people who disagree with you by calling them crazy. He has absolutely grown a half inch and is now a legit 6'2. Guys can grow till they are in their 20's, growing a half inch is not that rare.

Clay says on 29/May/09
Zaq, how in God's name can you possibly know if he has stopped growing or not ? Stop actign like you examine him every day. Look at him now next to people who are legit 6'1, he is about 1 inch taller. He has grown whether you like it or not. I'm from south asia(Pakistan) and I continued to grow well into my early 20's, so did my brothers.

MD says on 28/May/09
What I'm confused about is that in recent pics with Robert Pattinson given 6'1", here, Dev looks FAR beyond simply half an inch taller than Pattinson. So, one of these two is listed wrong, but I'm not sure who.

Lance says on 27/May/09
damn, this indian kid is tall as hell! i wish i could keep growing. im freakin 5'4" since i was 15 or 16 yrs old. now im like 19 1/2 and im still shorter than my dad. damn, how come im not taller than my short ass dad?

ZAQ says on 26/May/09
Hugh 190cm says on 16/Apr/09
ROb this guy should be upgraded by at least half an inch. HE has probably grown more since Slumdog.

James Carter says on 19/Apr/09
Dev has grown since Slumdog, I think he's a solid 6ft 2" now.



- You two are out of your minds
he hasn't grown since the first season of skins and he was about 17 at the time and now he is 19 your telling me that he is not the same height now as he was in Slumdog.. well you wrong
he stopped growing at 16

Clay says on 17/May/09
JJ,

Patel is taller now than he was in that pic with Hoult. He is now at 6'2 or at least 6'1.75.

Jimmy says on 17/May/09
JJ, Dev is 6'2 now. Look at pics of him next to Rob Pattinson who I have met and can confirm is 6'1. In all the pics Patel looks a solid 1 inch taller.

J.J. says on 12/May/09
'Rob' could you go to Nicholas Hoult's page and see this picture link 'Anon' posted, in that picture 6'2" Nicholas is an inch taller. If angles are off I will say leave him at Barack obama's height 6'1.25". He is Nothing more than 6'1.25" so Rob please list him at 6'1.25"(186cm) I was so right cos I've met him before as well and he said 6'1" but we didn't take any pictures. Cos he looks a very solid 6'1" an extra 0.25" is possible nothing more! Frieda Pinto is 5'6" nothing more.
Rob, I am absolutely right trust me on this one! Remember I told you Idris Elba was taller than 6'2" and you later upgraded him to 6'2.75" Even with Idris i'll say you must list him at 6'3.25" looks the same as Boris Kudjoe. So Rob please trust my word.

Ejel Khan says on 10/May/09
Dev's 6'2", believe me! One of a handful of Indian origin celebs whose a genuine 6 footer.

Milosh says on 26/Apr/09
I'm not sure if he's quite 6'2" just yet but he probably will be within the next two years or so.

I think he's about 6'2 because on the Oscar red carpet he was about 1 inch taller than Robert Pattinson who is a legit 6'1.

Hugh 190cm says on 16/Apr/09
ROb this guy should be upgraded by at least half an inch. HE has probably grown more since Slumdog.

Playing sports such as basketball during puberty can help yoou reach your max height potential.

Ejel Khan says on 10/Apr/09
Dev should be upgraded to 6'2" he has gained height, and towered above Anil Kapoor & Irfan Khan in Slumdog.

Annon says on 9/Apr/09
Wow. All of this debate over height? Let's face it. You grow what you grow to be because of your genetic pool. Debate about it til the end of time, getting more specific as you go, but to me, unless you measure Dev Patel yourself, or any other actor/actress, will anyone really be happy with an answer? Probably not. And me? I'll be truthful and say I'm not that tall. I'm not quite 5' with little growth room. And I'm pretty much not going to try to debate about it. Sorry if this sounds a little cynical.

Clay says on 6/Apr/09
Also my friend Moe(who played basketball)thought he was done growing when he was 13, he stayed at that height till he was 19 and then shot up 6 inches in two years.

Clay says on 6/Apr/09
ZAQ and thekiddd, I don't know where you guys get your info but you are 100% wrong. Not growing at all for a year does not mean you are done growing completely. I am living proof of that. I didn't grow for abour 2 and a half years at all(I know because I was measured every month for football)and then later shot up 8 inches. By the way thekiddd I grew 8 inches after 18 even though I had a mustache and some beard hair by the time I was 17.

george says on 27/Mar/09
yeah im about to be 21...yeah ill start doing yoga and hopefully i grow a couple inces..thanks for the info

Clay says on 26/Mar/09
Well George it's different for everyone. It really does depend on how old you are and your genes. If you are under the age of 18 I suggest you start playing tons and tons of basketball. If not then there are some yoga stretches that can give you about and inch and half of extra height if you do them correctly.

george says on 26/Mar/09
CLAY is there anything you did special to grow that tall? im about 5'9 and wish i can be a bit taller...any info CLAY

Jake says on 24/Mar/09
All I'm going to say is that if this dude is really, in all fairness, 6ft 1, then Anil Kapoor is definately not 5'10. I would peg Anil at 5'9. Moreover, looking at Kapoor's pictures from the film itself and offscreen, he looks atleast 5-inches shorter to Dev Patel (not to mention that Anil's got a short stature). Incredible how some sites have Anil Kapoor listed as 5'11. That estimate would make my day.

Dev Patel - 6ft 1.5
Anil Kapoor - 5ft 9

hey Clay man , you must have changed something in your diet or something , how did you grow so much man , that's incredible !!!

Clay says on 20/Mar/09
It's only a myth that you stop growing taller after you get facial hair. I had a musctache and some beard hair at 18 and grew 8 inches afterwards.

Ejel Khan says on 19/Mar/09
Dev should be upgraded .... due to him still growing. I would say he's reached the 6'2" mark easy.

At 18 I had a peach fuzz mustache and some hair underneath my chin and very little hair on my cheeks, I had some armpit hair but little to none chest hair. I was also very skinny. Then around 20 I started gaining muscle mass without really woking out that much, I also started getting taller at an alarming rate(my friends thought I was taking HGH injections). Before my rapid growth at around 19/20 I never really had a "growth spurt" in terms of height(2 inches per year from 13 onwards). On a side note, both my brothers also continued to get inches taller after they had plenty of facial hair although neither of them is above 6 foot.

ZAQ says on 17/Mar/09

can you please tell me how your height growth was like starting from 16 or what ever age you can remember at

your obviously a late bloomer and you probably didnt fill in and have facial hair at 18??

Clay says on 17/Mar/09
Dev is probably done growing taller but I was only 5'8 when I was 18 and now I am 22 and my height is a legit 6'4. Then again everybody in my family grew taller into their 20's.

kate says on 15/Mar/09
he looks taller.

no way is he close to 6'3

I saw him in a episode of skins he was about 17 years old and he appeared to be either same or less than 6'2 nicholas hoult

Skinny frame makes him look 6' 2" - 6' 3".

J.J. says on 26/Feb/09
No way Zaq that's about 2.75" shorter. At 2" shorter Your eyes will be on the nose point. Up until 2" it's really difficult 2 tell from afar unless the 2 people get closer. If someone is 2" shorter the top of the. Head will cut exactly in between the taller person's head(that is from the top tip of the ear to the top of the head) at 4" shorter your head is going to be exactly at the person's ear(the tip top bit). Dev is 6'1" & Hoult is 6'2" that explains why his eyes is an inch downer than Hoult's

ZAQ says on 25/Feb/09
jasper thats not a good pic he is leaning back a lil and hoult is lil up..

exactly if he is leaning back more than hoult is, that would mean he is loseing more height... if they were both standing upright i think they would be almost equal in height. dev being 6'2 and hoult 6'2.5

when nicholas hoult was on jonathan ross he was clearly 1.5 taller than ross is and he was wearing plimsoll type shoes.

ZAQ says on 25/Feb/09
jasper thats not a good pic he is leaning back a lil and hoult is lil up..

I think he is around 6'2 cause he had about 7 inches on 5'7 ellen

J.J 2 inches is very noticable in person at 2 inches your eye level would be up to a persons upper lip

usually .5 to 1 inch is not noticable

Jasper says on 25/Feb/09
i guess there is more than a 0.5 difference but i still think hoult is taller than 6'2 because me and my brother met him last year in london. At the time i was 17 and just over 6'1 around 6'1.25-6'1.5. im now 6'2 and my brother is 6' and i could see a clear difference between the two and my brother said hoult was taller then i was and i dont think my brother would of notice just a 0.5 difference.

J.J. says on 25/Feb/09
Are u blind Jasper can't u see the inch difference. He is 6'1" & Hoult is 6'2" if some1 is (1"-1.5" sometimes 2") taller than you people hardly notice the difference but anything from 3" will definately show no matter what.

J.J. says on 25/Feb/09
Frieda Pinto is 5'6" range never looked 5'9" next to 6'1" Dev

Jasper says on 24/Feb/09
Click Here in this picture dev patel looks almost identical height to nicholas hoult which would made him 6'2 if hoult is 6'2.5

Jonathan Ross is 6'1" his max is 6'1.25" so that makes Dev Patel the same range. If he grows into his body he is not going to look ginormous anymore

Ejel Khan says on 21/Feb/09
He's still growing ... and will reach 6'4" eventually.


No offense but he is alomost 19 and has indian heritage

and i have gotten a legit fact that about 90% of people with east asian descent will stop growing by 14-15 and the other 10% by 16

if you have watched skins all seasons since it started he seems to be pretty much the same height as he was when it first started so there is no chance of him being 6'4
for him to grow 2 inches after 19 is pretty hard unless he is a late bloomer which he is not

a late bloomer i know who started growing at 16 and was 4'9 was about 5'4 at 18 and only grew 3 inches after that with being 5'5 1/2 and 19 and reaching 5'7 by 22 and being done right there

thekiddd says on 23/Feb/09
Reach 6'4" at 19? Psssh, gimme a break Ejel.

IMO... DEV PATEL 6FT1
JON ROSS 6FT
NIC HOULT 6FT2.5

J.J. says on 22/Feb/09
He is 6'1". That's it. 6'1.5" & 6'1" has no noticeable difference . Meet the guy and see for yourself. Ma cousin is 6'1.5" 17yrs. & meets people who try to tell him he is 6'3"- 6'3.5" & he laughs at them all the time because he is not. Some people don't know their height & some people lie. Or try to believe their a certain height by adding a couple of inches to other tall people. A doctor told me that people need to get measured properly to know their true heights because he has come across so many people who claim 6'2" & finally gets measured at 6'0.5". It's not to say that isn't tall but even though people on this site say funny things like 5'9" for a girl isn't that tall anymore. Which is rubbish because on the growth charts u are nearly 97% of the time taller. I my Eyes Dev will always be 6'1". Bye

j.j again i fin using a show like tyra where the camera is set up to make angles favorable to the host is a bad way to jusge. dev looks 6'2, tyra's heels might give more thn 4" too, maybe 5. i just think it's dumb to assume he's 6'1 from one show when he normally looks taller than that in most other circumstances. i also have a felin dev is going to hit up to 6'4 becasue h looks like he has som growth left to fill out. gain all of thi is specualion to how tall he might be, but he looks to be heading there to me. as far as what he is now, i see him nothing below 6'2

Ejel Khan says on 21/Feb/09

J.J. says on 21/Feb/09
could any1 please go on youtube and type in Dev Patel on Tyra & you will get to see them standing & dancing. This could make people believe that he is 6'1" & might not grow anymore. Tyra in her heels was 6'2" & was exactly the same him cos he was in shoes so basically an inch extra so therefore he was standing at 6'2" in shoes. I think he has been this height ever since the 2nd series of Skins & will prolly grow into his body & look less lanky like he is now.

ZAQ says on 20/Feb/09
it all depends on when you start puberty
and seeing him in skins it seems he started early meaning he will stop early

100% of the time of people who start growing early will finish early
late bloomers will continue to grow later

I know a late bloomer who started growing at 16 and then he stopped by 22
and that was the only kid i know that continue for that long
everyones body tries its best to get all the spurts in at the age of 16 because that is the age where big or little spurts happen

i know a kid who was 6'2 at 16 and in that year he got up to 6'6 and he never grew after that at 17 or in his 20's


dev is almost 19 by the way
and i have also noticed that he hasnt grown at all since skins which was a couple years ago
and if you dont have 0 inch growth period for a whole year then you are def done

Anonymous says on 20/Feb/09
zaq, dev is already 6'2. i don't know how you can exact his height by half an inch but he is 6'2 every 6' person i seen him nea looks shorter, he looks long and who are you to say how his body work and will stop growing? you're only speculating he will stop, but it's very clear he might mak it to 6'3 if he continues

ZAQ says on 19/Feb/09
yes stephen i completly agree with you i hate people saying 21 to 25 is the when growth stops cause its not and those are rare occasions

From personal experience i noticed 1000's of people getting their last growth spurt at age 16 and then they grew slowly after that but was like 1/2 to 3/4 inch gain

Dev is not going to make it to 6'2 he is done and infact has been done since he was like 14-15

stephen says on 19/Feb/09
people grow at different ages. average for males is around 16-17 yes, but it doesn't mean thats rigid. i stopped growing at 14, but i know people who grew 2 inches during 16-18. i mean, just look at Dev during SKINS, he had a bumfluff moustache!

j.j. tyra is listed 5'11 on some places, she has said she is 5'10, but lennox lewis also says he's 6'3 when he's 6'5, not everyone upgades their height. now i don't know fo sure if she's 5'11 but can look it, because she has a big head(no offense to her fans) dev looks 6'2 more than 6'1 and camera angles on shows are a bad way to judge height mainly because studios are actually tiny and they try to make everything look bigger. i am sure dev patel is 6'2.

J.J. says on 17/Feb/09
Anyone here lives in America(USA)? could you please watch the Tyra Banks Show on Friday, February 20th & u would realise that Tyra's heels gives about 4" so basically making her 6'2" Dev Patel was exactly the same in his normal shoes that add about 1" in height so this proves he is nothing more than 6'1". I still stick by my word! HE IS A SOLID 6'1" NOTHING MORE. UNLESS WE WANNA SAY TYRA IS 5'11"(which she herself never claims). Tyra has always told the truth about her height she is 5'10" & nothing else, people who try to say she is 5'11" are people who either dont know their own height or just LYING!

Anonymous says on 16/Feb/09
zaq, i kept growing until i was 21, i gained 2 inches and leveled out at 6'2, people like scotty pippen and dennis rodman are hug and they grew hella late. i am sure dev patel can gain 2 more inches and hit 6'4(i think he is 6'2 now as he looked taller than jonathan ross, unless ross' shorter than his 6'1) hell his body looks like its just getting longer and longer

luke says on 16/Feb/09
The age you stop growing is 21, but most stop or grow not much after 18, dev is 6'1.5- 187 cm, so he is not quite 6'2 he is just under, he is 18 so he may stop that heigh or grow an inch maybe by the time he is 21, dev is still very tall though for an 18 year old, especially has he has indian blood.

Anonymous says on 15/Feb/09
i stopped growing (im a male) by 16, but its possible for some boys to stop at 21/25 .Yes i agree its true the average male nowadays stops by 17.

He's between 6"1 and 6"2, Rob has him about right.

Over 6"2 is insanity.

ZAQ says on 15/Feb/09
HE IS NOT GROWING WILL YOU GUYS GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEADS

AVERAGE MALE WILL STOP AROUND 17
HE PROLLY STOPPED AROUND 15-16

Anonymous says on 15/Feb/09
My take.. in skins he was 2 inches shorter than 6ft2in hoult, but now dev is 6ft2 and i reckon hoult is now an easy 6ft3.

stephen says on 14/Feb/09
he was taller than jon ross, why would you be so stupid and say he wasnt? he was between half an inch, to an inch taller than jon ross. ross is 6ft 1.5in, making Dev 188-189cm.

Zach #2 says on 14/Feb/09
he was looking down at Jonathon Ross, cleared him by a solid 1", I'm starting to think Ross is 6ft barefeet and around 6ft 1.5" with dress shoes, cuz the last couple of '6ft 1.5" guys?, like Jay-Z, Will Smith, Dav Patel all cleared Ross by atleast an inch!

Dev looks like a solid 6ft 2", but in photos with Nicholas Hoult he looks 6ft 1.5", either Dev is 6'2" or Nicholas Hoult is 6ft 2.5/3"

Ejel Khan says on 14/Feb/09
I agree with you Joe. Dev Patel was at least an inch taller than JR.

joe says on 14/Feb/09
I think he's still growing. He was on the jonathan ross show last night. ross is around 6'1 and he was at least an inch and a half taller. He's at least 189cm.

miko says on 14/Feb/09
He wasn't taller than Ross last night.

Sachin M says on 13/Feb/09
I went to WHITMORE HIGH SCHOOL(Dev Patel's old school in Rayners Lane, North West London).

I was in the year below him, but I did talk to him quite alot in the sixth form centre and in our playground. (we knew each other through friends...we hanged about in the same crowd)

Dev is 6ft 2

The reason I KNOW THIS is because im 6ft EXACTLY, and he was a bit taller than me. Around 2 inches...so yeah 6ft 2 is about right. For an indian guy, he is unusually TALL. Most indian guys at our school were like 5ft 5 - 5ft 7. Dev always stood out, in that respect.

He was also really good at Drama, i remember.

J.J. says on 13/Feb/09
no i said 6'0.5" which is 184cm, & yea so many people dont know theire real heights until they get measured. i kno this guy who had always claimed 6'1" & one day he got measured & to his own surpise he was barely 6'02 he measured at 5'11.6" multiply that by 2.54 & u get 181.864cm which is basically 182cm. so he was actually (6'1"{185.42cm}-181.864cm) adding 3.556cm to his height. by looking at Nicholas Hoult & Dev Patel you can always tell the 1 inch difference

luke says on 12/Feb/09
6'1 is 185 cm, 6 '0 is 183 cm, dev is 187 cm tall,work it out j.j- 6'1.5, forget saying he not that height, he is look at the facts, for what is true, and anyway he looks about that height anyway he's a really tall kid and he is only 18 he may still be growing.

J.J. says on 11/Feb/09
This listing was 6'1" why the change. He is nothing more than 6'1". The reason ppl think he is taller is b'cos most people that claim 6'1" are actually 184cm but they just say 6'1". 186cm is possible but nothing more than that. He is the true picture of what a 6'1" person should look like period.

he is definately tall, I would say 6ft 1 - 6ft 2 is about right.... i wish i was that tall....

MD says on 6/Feb/09
No, he was two inches taller than Jay Leno, the other night, at the very most. Let's cut out all of this silly talk of 6'4".

cho says on 5/Feb/09
Hmm...the movie was filmed when dev was 16, and he's an easy 6"2 there...now nicholas hoult is 6"4 not 6"2....so dev must be at least hoult's hieght or taller, from the photo.... next to jon stewart dev looks an easy 6"4 but that was today, two years after filming....

I see 6"1 there next to 6"2 Nicholas Hoult.

his face looks deformed or stuck on in that pic Nick just posted.
im curious on his height. he seems to be anywhere from 6'0 to 6'3. he is also so lean, which doesn't help. we'll find out soon enough, come oscars and other appearances.

anonymoose says on 5/Feb/09
he is 6"1 now..but he will probably grow more...I think his final adult height will be 6"3

Rob do you think he has grown a bit since slumdog?Looked 6'0-6'1 in the film,like MD estimated.He looked that height with 5'9 anil kapoor

ZAQ says on 4/Feb/09
ok nvm about what i said last time he looks atleast 6'2

cause i looked at a youtube video of him on ellen show

ellen is 5'7 and he must of had atleast 7 inches on her
the top of ellens head was a few inches below his eye level

Elle says on 4/Feb/09
I think he's got a big career ahead of him and I wish him all the best. Yeah, he looks tall. 6'1/6'2.

Hugh says on 4/Feb/09
He is probably around 6'1", for sure he has a huge head which can lead to understimate his height.

Anonymous says on 3/Feb/09
i buy 6'2. looks very tall, but he is really skinny so he gives a massiv appearance

rafter says on 2/Feb/09
I believe 6'1,maybe rob is being generous with giving him the extra half inch.Many fansites list him as being bit over 6'1.

rafter says on 2/Feb/09
rob how tall do you think is anil kapoor,the game show host from slumdog millionaire.I would guess 5'9 for kapoor.Patel was about 4 inches taller.

MD says on 1/Feb/09
Yeah, he looked about 6'1" with Leno the other night, but not more.

no lol he;s taller then 5"8 my friend LOL. i've seen him in person in NY. I'm 5"11 and he had about inch or inch and half on me easy. i would give him 6ft to 6.5 tops.

Brah says on 28/Jan/09
Rob, are you sure he is only 6'1.5"? Seems at least 6'2" to me.
I thought he looked taller than David Letterman.
Also, check out this clip when he and Freida Pinto were on the Ellen DeGeneres show:

Click Here

Milosh says on 28/Jan/09
Nah, not 5'8"...definitely taller.

I'd give him a full 6'1". He's only 18 and still may grow an inch or so. He was quite a bit taller than most of the people in Mumbai, but that isn't really saying much I guess.

MD says on 27/Jan/09
The only pictures I've been able to find, of late, have him standing with his female costar or the movie's director, and it's almost impossible to judge the heights not knowing either of their heights. Almost 6'2" does seem a little tall, though. His incredibly long limbs (and this is coming from someone with unusually long limbs, myself) really help him appear to be a giant.

ZAQ says on 26/Jan/09
ARE YOU KIDDING ME LOL

HE LOOKED LIKE HE WAS 5'8 IN THAT MOVIE

Shah Nawaz says on 26/Jan/09
he looks 3-4 good inches tall than 5'10 Anil Kapoor
