Gordon Ramsay Height
Gordon Ramsay's height is 6 ft 1.4 in (186 cm)

UK Celebrity Chef. Hhe once said: "I was six foot, fast, strong, 19 years of age. So the last thing I expected was to be kicked out Rangers"...then in 2000 said "I'm 6ft 2ins, thick-set and rugged". He was measured by Erin O'Connor who said 6ft 2.5 but the actual reading looked between 186 and 187cm rather than 189.

@Serge. Not even 6 ft? LOL. Seems as he has two inches on David Beckham and Robbie Williams.. I'll agree he looked 6'0.5" next to Hasselhoff though.
Serge says on 15/Jan/12
I met him at the Indigo book-signing in Toronto when he released "Gordon Ramsay's Fast Food". I'm 5'11" with my shoes on & was eye-to-eye with him. Gordon is not even 6ft.
aunold says on 1/Jan/12
Always thought Ramsey was taller but apparently not. Looks huge next to James Kyson Lee in soccer aid picture but Lee is a lot smaller than hed have you think. He has a page on here and youve got to check it out cos Rob absolutely busts him.
miko says on 29/Dec/11
I've been saying for a long time that Ramsey is very lucky if he's 6'1.
Shaun says on 29/Dec/11
Well I was pretty sure he was 6'1.5" range, He could look close to 6'2" a lot next to those footballers for instance and generally does look two inches taller than Beckham. Also he's a few inches taller than Janet Street Porter. Generally in that video accounting for posture I see about 3 inches but as you say they are constantly moving and slouching. Are we certain Hoff is exactly a flat 6'4" though? He could look a bit taller in Baywatch and Pamela Anderson and a few of the others in the cast claim he is 6'5" (although probably so she can claim 5'7"!). I think somebody said though that John Leslie had an inch on him at 6'5". Did Hoff look a weak 6'4" recently next to David Cameron though?
Shaun says on 28/Dec/11
Dunno if you see 42:00-45:10 odd Hoff actually does look near 4 inches taller. LOL if he was 6'2.5" as Erin claims Hoff is pushing 6'7". I'm not seeing anything above 6'1", Rob? Hoff actually makes him look quite small...
[Editor Rob: they are both moving/slouching a lot in these clips, but sometimes it can look a big 3 inch bigger yeah]
Shaun says on 28/Dec/11

Rob see the first half hour, pause at 11:10 for instance. What do you think? I'm seeing 3-3.5 inch difference.
Shaun says on 28/Dec/11
Second picture looks a lot shorter than this doesn't he. Click Here
Ejel Khan says on 25/Dec/11
O'Connor was lying on show to give Ramsey a boost. 6'4" Hasslehoff appeared on Ramsey's live cook-a-long on Christmas day. The difference was 4" in Hoff's favour.
Yaspaa says on 23/Dec/11
Erin O'Connor measured him at 6'2.5? He has the same measuring skills as Vince Basille.
Shaun says on 12/Dec/11
He did look a legit 6'1.5" next to those who took part in the football matches for charity though didn't he.
Shaun says on 12/Dec/11
Dunno, its possible Physics, but I swear, scouts honour, this guy looks very close in body frame to myself and my lowest is 186. Of course people can look taller on TV than in real life, but this guy often claims 15 stone-15 and a half stone which I was for years until I dropped to just over 14 and a half this year.
SAK says on 5/Dec/11
@ Physics Enemy, Beckham isn't 5ft10, more like 181cm/5ft11.



Ramsay strong 6f1, 186cm for sure.
Physics Enemy says on 18/Nov/11
Beckham is 5' 10" Shaun, he was even listed at that in his early playing days. Ramsey is 6' 0.5" without his sneakers and the stadiometer error.
Physics Enemy says on 17/Nov/11
6' 1.375" is 186.37 cm. Knock off 2mm you get 186.17 cm. Knock off 2cm for his sneakers, you get 184.17 cm. That's bang on 6' 0.5". That's his exact height.
Shaun says on 17/Nov/11
He doesn't look under 6'1" next to Beckham.
Shaun says on 17/Nov/11
One thing I've noticed about Ramsay is that he always wears very flat looking sneakers so if I doubt he'd be much lower than this although he could be 6'0.5" maybe.
Physics Enemy says on 16/Nov/11
He was in footwear. 99% certain. Why lie about the measurement, cut-out his feet from the vid, yet measure barefoot? Never. He's 6' 0.5" barefoot, just under 6' 1.3" in sneakers (without the 2mm error). He's 184 cm.
Physics Enemy says on 15/Nov/11
There must be footage of him with his sneakers visible, in that same episode where he gets measured? If we can see them, we can deduct the sneaker difference since Rob will know how much height they give.

If anyone can find a shot of his sneakers from that episode, show us!
[Editor Rob: what happens if they cut, and during the cut he took sneakers off. Having these unknowns means the measurement is either in footwear or not, but it's not certain.

there might be a greater chance he is in footwear though, maybe the model would remember, although seeing as she called out an inch taller than he was I have my doubts.]
Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
He's exactly 184 cm I think, just about 6' 0.5". He's just over 6' 1.25" with his sneakers and then 184 cm without. His 6' claim for a 19 year old player was close and probably just rounded off from 184.
Physics Enemy says on 14/Nov/11
Come on Rob, he was wearing sneakers. You said yourself they were trying to cheat the measurement and pretend he was very tall. So why would he then be barefoot? It's 99% assured he was wearing sneakers ... IF he was barefoot they'd make a big point of showing his feet in the video to highlight that. 6' 0.5" is fair for him. He even said 6' for himself at age 19.

He's 6' 1.275" or so (without 2mm error) and then 6' 0.5" barefoot.
[Editor Rob: but it's still unknown how much his sneakers are, we could assume, but I don't know.]
Shaun says on 13/Nov/11
Chances are he was wearing sneakers... If so he's more 6'0.5". He looks a solid 6'1" er though to me and 15 stone odd but like myself although I'm 14 st 8 at the moment!
Physics Enemy says on 10/Nov/11
Rob, you should knock off the stadiometer error for this guy. 6' 1.25" (in footwear).
[Editor Rob: it looks the same seca make, but it might be the first incarnation, like 'mark 1' and the one I've got is 'mark 2'...they've changed their portable stadiometer now and the latest one looks quite different from the ramsey/my one.

he's got to be either 6ft 1.3ish or under 6ft 1 if he had any sort of sneaker/shoe on. That is the real unknown, sneaker or not!
]
Physics Enemy says on 9/Nov/11
Ohh - There's also the stadiometer error to knock off. Solid 6' 1.25" then, in footwear that is. So he's probably a bit over 6 foot barefoot. 184 tops, maybe 183.5 is more accurate.
Physics Enemy says on 26/Oct/11
He's likely 6 ft flat, I think the measurement was in shoes. If they're going to lie about the measurement I doubt they'd measure him barefoot. They were obviously looking to give him an inflated measurement.
Shaun says on 25/Oct/11
More likely in shoes as Erin is listed at 6'0 and measured 185cm on it. She could have been in converse type shoes maybe. Or is weak 6'1" a little undesirable for a model like 6'3" for a male model? Ramsey always wears flattish sneakers though so he wouldn't be that much shorter than this anyway.
Shaun says on 25/Oct/11
Yup you're right Rob, in fact I zoomed in on the Erin O Connor measurement. He's 186-187cm range NOT 189cm. Although he does look taller than Erin who was measured at 185cm. The thing is more chance he was measured wearing 1 inch sneakers than barefoot. But he does very close in height and build to me ..
miko says on 21/Oct/11
With an ego as big as Ramsay's, I'm suprised he didn't try and go for 6'4.
Physics Enemy says on 20/Oct/11
Maybe this 6' 1.375" was in shoes though. Was it?
[Editor Rob: it is a possibility...it's an unknown!]
Cranberries (18m, 193cm) says on 16/Oct/11
He wears a size 15 2E shoe...
Christian says on 14/Oct/11
Could it be, that the 6-2.5 mark is the last height that is visible in the empty space covered by the measurement tool and Erin O'Connor didn't know how to interpret the measurement? Maybe she didnt lie then?
[Editor Rob: she must have seen the pointers pointing to a mark between 73 and 74, I guess there's always a chance she thought near 73.5 was 6ft 2.5, but I think it's false info she said either way, I think it was done on purpose.]
miko says on 13/Oct/11
I've always said I believe Ramsay was 6'0.5/6'1, I guess this new evidence helps a little.

If he is in any type of footwear whilst being measured it would destroy his height claim.
Editor Rob says on 13/Oct/11
To follow up previous comment, here is a screengrab to show that Ramsay was never measured 6ft 2.5 on the stadiometer:

My best guess is it was 6ft 1 3/8ths ;)
Soviet_Rebel says on 10/Oct/11
6ft no more, but not less
Shaun says on 2/Oct/11
Yeah Romeo is an olive skinned kid, looks kind of odd. Brooklyn looks more like he could be the son of Guy Richie than Beckham!!
James says on 7/Sep/11
Shaun says on 6/Sep/11
Actually you are right, Romeo is the most like David, but he is also the most like Victoria. I'd say Romeo looks the most like his parents. Brooklyn really doesn't look like any of them. Cruz looks more like David.

Romeo kinda looks liek david beckham in the 90's. LOL its funny how they obviously give Romeo a fake tan all the time or his skin color could be natuarlly brown?
Shaun says on 6/Sep/11

Actually James I think Romeo is very much like Victoria and has the same very thin bone structure. I think Cruz looks the most like David.

Ramsay consistently looks about 2 inches taller than Beckham. I think this is spot on at least barefoot. The 6'2.5" is obviously in shoes. Gosh doesn't Beckham look much better with longer hair than the shaved do.

Your not taking into account how ramsey could look 1cm shorter than johnathan ross.

On a sidenote doesn't romeo beckham look like david?
Shaun says on 29/Aug/11
Did anybody see Big Brother last night? Marco Pierre White was on it. I don't normally notice heights on things like that but he really looked a big guy. He was wearing sneakers and didn't look far off the door frame at the end. Towered over everybody when he stood up straight. Certainly he's a legit 6'3", in fact I'd have estimated him at 6'4" he really looks that big.

He does appear to be easily 2 inches taller than David Beckham

Brett says on 26/Jul/11 Rob, I forgot to comment on Gordon when i saw him a couple months ago, at the Ivy bar in Sydney... hes nowhere near 187cm...I was shocked to see that he was shorter than me...Id say more like 183-184cm max... ( as you know im 185-186cm). I got very close to him as a friend of mine drunkardly gave him a hug -To my suprise gordon didnt get heated... mind you he was in alot of hot water with the press at that time. He's taller than six foot Janet Street Porter by 1.5"-2 inches.

No its just you Aussies are just ****** because Gordon humiliated your newsreader!! He is spot on 186-87cm. He was even measured on TV at 6'2.5" in shoes (very likely).
Shaun says on 19/Aug/11
He isn't under 6'1". He can look just an inch taller than Beckham as he slouches a lot but when stood straight he does look 1.5"-2' inches taller than legit 5'11" er David Beckham. As I said he looks probably the most similar in height and build than any celeb to myself and I measure a whisker over 6'2" out of bed and 6'1.25" at night and weigh about 15 stone.
James says on 8/Aug/11
rob what about........
jonathan ross 6ft1.25 (186cm)
Gordon Ramsey 6ft1 (185cm)
James says on 7/Aug/11
he could look even a fraction shorter than 185cm next too jonathan ross.
Click Here

Brett might have a point because compared too Johnathan Ross Gordon does look 183-184cm range. even with his hair advantage ross does seem too have an edge on him and i think most belive that jonathan ross is not the 6ft1 1/2 he claims too be.

Rob if you look at the youtube videos i posted would you agree that johnathan ross does look a hair taller than him? Will Smith looked taller compared too Jonathan Ross than Ramsey did.

I think gordan should be downgraded too 6ft.05 (184cm). obviously he must have been measured at 189cm in very big shoes or he was just mismeasured?
[Editor Rob: they are pretty close in height, I don't think there'd be more than half inch between them. The 6ft 2.5 measurement was done by the woman, of course he had shoes on, and it could have been a 'lightly' touching head one, I would need to look again if I find the clip.]

Ramses says on 23/Jul/11
Lokks about 6'1" to me.
James says on 19/Jul/11
Conan's hairstlye makes him look taller next too Ramsey.

Gordon Ramsey 6'1 (185cm)
Conan O'Brien 6'4 (193cm)
Tony says on 19/Jul/11
He's 5'11.5 barefoot or 6 feet at best, Bout A year and half before the whole Conan Leno thing, He was on Click Here I believe Norm Mcdonald is the solid 6'1 he claims and he's still hunched, If he stood straight up atleast an inch and half he would have over Gordon. Even standing next to Conan who is 6'4, He atleast looks 4 inches shorter

6 feet
James says on 17/Jul/11
i don't think he's over 185cm
Sam says on 5/Jul/11
He only looks about 6'1" compared to others on his shows, he's obviously over average height but is regularly surrounded by equally tall or taller guys. To me, he often looks about 10 years older than his actual age.
Legend says on 2/Jul/11
6 feet
Vegas says on 22/Jun/11
o'connor is coming out 185cm on the dot and she calls out 6'2.5 for ramsey, 31minute mark, you can't make out if either are wearing footwear though Click Here
James says on 14/Jun/11
Rob did you know gordon has size 15 feet?

As for his height i think yes 183cm is too low. I think maybe 6'0.75 (185cm)? He looks very similar in height to Johnathan Ross.

So
Jonathan Ross 6'1 (185cm)
Gordon Ramsey 6'0.75 (185cm)
[Editor Rob: I don't know about feet that big]
Blaine says on 11/Jun/11
is always looks about 6ft 4 to me
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 4/Jun/11
6ft2 is not a joke
James says on 2/Jun/11
6'2 is a joke for gordon. look how small he looks in that pic

at 6ft you can look tall and imposing. Slightly shorter than Jonathan Ross as well.

Shaun so i take it you don't belive he is 6'0 (183cm)?
Shaun says on 27/May/11
He doesn't look close to 6'2" next to Beckham, barely looks taller.
Shaun says on 27/May/11
Click Here

Hard to imagine this guy is a weak 6'2". This is not how a near 6'2" guy looks compared to most, I should know! On a very rare occasion though you'll find yourself surrounded by 6'3"-6'6" guys all at once.
Mathew says on 23/May/11
6'1" give or take.
James says on 18/May/11
He looks 6ft to me. then again maybe he does not look 6'1.5 becuase he hangs around very tall chefs on a regular basis?
Ace says on 13/May/11
I was watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares, and when Gordon enters the restaurant for the first time, the manager immediately states that he was intimidated by how tall Gordon was, followed by the mother citing that he was extremely tall as well. Although I don't think he is 6'2.5, it is clear that he isn't 6'0.5. 6 footers rarely get described as towering. He is definitely close to 6'2.
Somborac says on 12/May/11
He's 6ft EVEN.
Cranberries says on 8/May/11
6'1.5" looks taller than average people, significantly. Cooks are usually small to average in stature; 6'1"-6'2" sounds about right. Certainly is thick-set; he's got some sturdy legs and wrists. 215 lbs. maybe, he's fit too.
Somborac says on 8/May/11
6'2?! Are you kidding me? I'm 6ft with my shoes on & was eye-to-eye when I met him! He's 6ft even!
brooksy says on 7/May/11
Walked right past him last year at heathrow airport when I was in the UK, I'm 6 foot 1 and we were roughly about the same height.
James says on 28/Apr/11
6'0.5 (184cm)
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 14/Apr/11
6"1.75(187cm)
xkon says on 8/Apr/11
Rob do you know if we can find the video where he is measured with the model?If not the name of the episode or the name of the model would be helpful too.

[Editor Rob: it's the F Word, episode with model Erin O'Connor I think.

She was 185cm on the stadiometer (I looked at the video and pretty much this looked bang on), but it wasn't as clear with Ramsey (who I believe was in footwear), Erin was the one who called out 6ft 2.5 when he was getting measured...]
James says on 5/Apr/11
Yeah but rob who knows Gordon could have been wearing 1.5 inche shoes. Ramsey does not look 6'1.5 or 6'2 at all to me.
James says on 4/Apr/11
rob what height did he get measured at on his show?

[Editor Rob: the model got measured first, then Ramsey who if I recall was 6ft 2.5 (at least that is what was said) but I believe this is shoes measurement.

I watched the clip when it was first brought up on here and to be fair, it looked a lot better than the van damme mum measurement!]
James says on 28/Mar/11
Okay maybe 183cm is too low. I think 185cm or 186cm could be on the money for Gordon.

Gordan Ramsey 6'1. (185cm)
Jeremy Clarkson 6'4.5 (194cm)

[Editor Rob: he did get measured on his show, the model got measured then Ramsay, although I think he still had his shoes on for it, we never saw his feet!]
James says on 27/Mar/11
I think he's 6'0. 6'2 is a joke.
Truth says on 19/Mar/11
Looked 4 inches shorter than jeremy clarkson
So id say 6Flat!!!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 19/Mar/11
Seems 6"1.75(187cm)
Somborac says on 9/Mar/11
Met him. Was eye-to-eye & I'm 6ft. Gordon Ramsay is 6FT, NO MORE, NO LESS.
Karina says on 9/Feb/11
I've heard about 6'1.5'' but I've never seen anyone as tall as him so it makes me not want to believe. I can't believe that everyone else is so much shorter
James says on 24/Jan/11
Agree Anonymous he does not look like a 6'2 guy but more like a 6ft guy on television.
Shaun says on 7/Jan/11
Only looks about 1-1.5 inches taller than David Beckham in recent pics but I think he had sneakers on and Beckham boots. But what has this guy done to his hair/face? He's one of the last blokes who needs a hair transplant, surely?
m says on 30/Dec/10
Under 6'2? He always looked much taller than the participants of the cooking shows, I figured he was around 6'5. Maybe he did factor height into the program because he always seemed to be towering over the contestants and if he's really just over 6'1 I doubt that would happen.
Shaun says on 25/Dec/10
brapp says on 31/Oct/10
he clearly has massive insecuritites, and is very proud of being moderately tall. If you see him on his shows he's always shouting down at people. I bet he specifically picks mostly short, meek people to go on his programmes, and wears high shoes.

No, I don't think height is one off his insecurities, he's got nothing to feel insecure about in terms of height. He generally wears flat sneakers I've noticed.
Shaun says on 25/Dec/10
What makes it obvious to me that he is insecure/nervous is how on edge he always is when presenting. If you want him alosely he is seirously on edge and always looks like he needs to pee. He tends to dancing up and down when speaking and then he gets on with doing something. I think him being a workaholic helps takes his mind off things. He does look 6'1" though.
Shaun says on 25/Dec/10
scaz says on 11/Oct/10
A mate of mine met him and said he was about 5' 7"!!

Was that mate blind?
tom says on 19/Nov/10
Walked straight past him on the street, when he was filming ramsays kitchen nightmares earlier this year. He was standing still, with a PR woman, looked thinner than he appears on screen and not as tall. Im 5ft 11, and Gordon appeared around 6ft. Possibly 6ft 0.5. He was wearing boots though with heels.
brapp says on 31/Oct/10
oops meant 6ft 0.5 inches

there is a chance gordon could be 6'1 flat.
