XYZ, I am 6'0-6'0 1/8 at my low and I am often guessed at 6'1 and even 6'2 sometimes. Maybe my build can give a taller impression is why. I also tend to have pretty good posture
xyz.reg(185.4cms-186.9cms) says on 2/Feb/12
@rob If a legit 6ft 5 can be guessed 6ft 6-7 even 6ft 8..then a 6ft guy could also be guessed 1-2in more than his height depending on his physique.
[Editor Rob:
with good posture a true 6ft man could easily fool a good proportion of people into thinking they are 6ft 1.

I guess challenger 15 really humbled alot of people. A 6'5 is simply enormous so all these speculated 6'4-6'5 or there abouts candidates need to be downgraded ie vince vaughn, jeff goldblum, hasselhoff, the rock, jeremy clarkson, lennox lewis, vitali klitschko etc Only klitschko would compare to this guy. Rob hardly reaches his chin :-S and a true 6'4 wouldn't be much shorter .
_______________
robs already pointed out on big shows page that the way the shot was taken makes him look 1 inch taller because in truth rob "should" have reached his chin Click Here in a comparison challenger 13 Click Here would come out more than ~1.5 inches shorter even though he was measured 191.7cm
_________________________________________________________________________
As i stated earlier, robs head would reach his chin, with his head around 9 - 9.5 inches would equate to a 6'5 range fella. A 6'4 would be around the lower lip. In any angle, this guy could give off a strong 6'6 impression easily like any other 6'5 guy. Connor says on 1/Feb/12
Hey rob, i am new to this site im just wondering is the tape measure just as accurate as the stadiometer because i used your method with the aresol can and pencil and i measure above 6ft 183.2cm which is two mm or lines over, do you think this is correct? sorry about the repeated questions its just that i wondering why there not appearing answer if you have time Connor says on 28/Jan/12
Hey rob i went to the gym and I measured myself on the stadiometer 183.8cm two lines below 184 is this correct? if so how tall am i in feet and inches? hope this makes sense answer if you can, like your website
[Editor Rob: as I said you are about 6ft and 1/3rd inch] Alex says on 26/Jan/12
Also the fact that his head is titled up some can make him appear a bit taller than he really is too. It threw it off some which many thought he was 6'6 range. Honestly I didn't think he was anything under 6'5.5 Vegas says on 25/Jan/12

With the 2mm error this guy would be right on 6'5 1/8 at his low. 6'5.5 could have def been his later morning height after being up for 3-4 hrs which would result in a 6'6 out of bed height I believe. ANDREA[ITA] says on 15/Jan/12
So he's been honest because he surely measures 6'5.5 at some part of the day. You think that this mark is his low? Do you agree that if he would this height at his low, he's gotta be over 6'6 in the morning, a little but over?
[Editor Rob: yes, he could have been measured near 6ft 5.5 say 11am and drops to 6ft 5.1 at his lowest. Being 6ft 6 in the morning is very likely aswell.] ANDREA[ITA] says on 15/Jan/12
How tall he thought to be, Rob? 6'6?
[Editor Rob: he said he had been measured at the gym about 6ft 5.5 earlier than the time I measured him.] Alex says on 15/Jan/12
Vegas, I'd say hes no lower than 370lb range and could be like 400-410lbs. When someone is that big its tough to call their exact weight Josh (170-12) says on 14/Jan/12
Rob, did you ask the people how tall they were/thought they were before you measured them? I'd be interested to see the difference if you did
[Editor Rob: a few I already knew, some I didn't know what they thought about their height.
but people like say #8 did think he was 6ft 2 range, #13 thought he was 6ft 4 before getting measured, #2 thought he was 6ft 2, #5 said 6ft 1-2 although from speaking to his partner I think #5 has claimed more than what he said to me :)] Vegas says on 14/Jan/12
rob any idea what challenger 15 weighs??
[Editor Rob: I never asked him.] Shaun says on 14/Jan/12
So we now have Lillo Thomas, "Steve", Sam, Kyle and Brad as legit 6'5" ers..... Right..... Alex says on 13/Jan/12
Lilo, aren't you like 6'5.5 yourself? Alex says on 13/Jan/12
Triplescrew, I am happy to be joint winners in 1st place. I honestly didn't think I'd be 1st or 2nd since I was behind you by over 10 points by challenge 12-13 but I pulled some big points at the end Vegas says on 13/Jan/12
ANDREA[ITA] says on 13/Jan/12
Rob, he actually isnt neither 196 because you gotta take off 2 mm for the stadiometer! He's actually 195.95 so just a smidge over 6'5 (195.58)! This shows that a legit 6'5 can look enormous!
___________
also shows that tim robbins was certainly not downgrading himself after all...
personally i think alot of heights on this site need to reassessed, many of the taller wrestlers especially have to come down now, hulk hogan nearly an inch taller than this guy e.g, many of the celebs i have stood next to and taken photos with i would no longer be confident they are as tall as i thought Alex says on 13/Jan/12
And in reality this guy would be 6'5.1-6'5.2 range with the 2mm error. ANDREA[ITA] says on 13/Jan/12
Rob, he actually isnt neither 196 because you gotta take off 2 mm for the stadiometer! He's actually 195.95 so just a smidge over 6'5 (195.58)! This shows that a legit 6'5 can look enormous! Am i right? No way that a guy like Armie Hammer is this tall!
[Editor Rob: #15 would likely be taller than armie, who is a hollywood 6ft 5, he could be half inch shy of 6ft 5.] Alex says on 12/Jan/12
Triplescrew, yea Rob looked to be a full head shorter than this guy I thought and I assumed this guy's head was 9.5-10 inches Ikbob says on 12/Jan/12
Rob, what was your guess before measuring him?
[Editor Rob: I didn't think he looked as tall as 6ft 6, I thought he is somewhere in 6ft 5-5.5 range.] Shaun says on 12/Jan/12
Is Sam LAN Jiao's new name or do we have another 6'5" guy?
[Editor Rob: steve] Lillo Thomas says on 12/Jan/12
At first I thought he was 6-5 to 6-5.5 but the more I looked the pics he Give an 6-6 impression . In the pics he can pass easily as a 6-6 guy. ANDREA[ITA] says on 12/Jan/12
Rob, did he appear shorter than Daniel Cudmore? Cudmore must have looked almost 1.5 inches taller (if you consider he had shoe disadvantage) than this guy, if he really is 6'7!
[Editor Rob: he looked a bit shorter than Cudmore, on seeing #15 he looked in that 6ft 5-5.5 zone, Cudmore looked in the 6ft 6-6.5 zone (without then adding in footwear disadvantage)
] ANDREA[ITA] says on 12/Jan/12
Rob, i dont know why but my comment didnt appear! it doesnt matter anyway because i thought i would have said 197.8... this suprised me because he really didnt look under 197! and he actually doesnt neither reach the 6'5.25 mark (which is 196.215)... Triplescrew says on 12/Jan/12
Alex says on 12/Jan/12
So Rob, we have a tie between me and Triplescrew. Are you just going to leave us as co winners or throw in a bonus challenge to break the tie?
[Editor Rob: I think leaving joint winners is fair, I don't have any other challenges left now.]
-----------------
Co-winners seems pretty cool, cause we both had ups and downs but ended up with the same score haha.
And I am also amazed at this guys height, without the camera angles #13 and #15 would look very close in height in person. Theman says on 12/Jan/12
wow I am amazed this man is only 6 foot 5. so hes around only 4 cm taller than the 6 foot 3 guy who was close to 192cm. He looks at least 4 inches taller how strange. I did think he was maybe a little shorter than my 200cm guess but only by about 2cm at most very surprising. Triplescrew says on 12/Jan/12
@Rob
Yeah my guess was based on the fact that your had came slightly below what was visible of his chin. Stiffelio says on 12/Jan/12
I think challenge 15 was the one we, on average, were the farthest off from the true height. Right, Rob? I am happy with my overall ranking: I'm 9th in total points eventhough I forgot to guess on a couple of occasions.
[Editor Rob: apart from the kid in 14, which was harder to guess.
but before posting this I thought the average would have been 6ft 6, similarly with the plumber in challenge 8, it is not much surprise that the average in that case was near 6ft 2...it's just I believe in these 2 cases a good fraction got added.
With challenger 13 I got Jenny to take the photos further away and it didn't add much if any to that guy's height. ] Sam says on 12/Jan/12
Wow, would never guess this huge guy is about my height...he's still gotta outweigh me by about 100-150 pounds! JM9 says on 12/Jan/12
Haha my first guess and I won ;) Vegas says on 12/Jan/12
shocked he is this low to be honest, rob did daniel cudmore really look nearly 2 inches taller in person because the photos don't show it
as for andre, you have him nearly 7 inches taller and that shot with 5'8 wrestling billed dynamite is almost identical to the long shot Click Here
[Editor Rob: yeah I would say he did look about an inch taller...plus the 0.4 disadvantage cudmore had.
] Alex says on 12/Jan/12
So a mm under 6'5.25 would put this guy at 6'5 1/8 with the 2mm error. I am def shocked as seeing I thought he was MINIMUM 6'5.5 Alex says on 12/Jan/12
So Rob, we have a tie between me and Triplescrew. Are you just going to leave us as co winners or throw in a bonus challenge to break the tie?
[Editor Rob: I think leaving joint winners is fair, I don't have any other challenges left now.] Alex says on 12/Jan/12
Def suprised hes as short as 6'5.25. I thought he had at least 9.5 inches on Rob. Its probably because his head is slightly titled up giving him a taller impression. Jack says on 12/Jan/12
only 196? Wow I thought he would be no less than 198 cm... Really strange. Cranberries says on 12/Jan/12
Wow... I was nearly 3 inches too high. Haven't been doing many of these but this guy was the most challenging yet! Can't believe how tall 6'5.25" can look... steven says on 12/Jan/12
this guy height may have proof many 6'5 actors are under the 6'4 mark slightly lower. a real 6'5 and look 6'6. Shaun says on 12/Jan/12
My first impression of this guy was admittedly around 202cm!! I thought wow he's 6'7" or 6'8" at first glance!! Shaun says on 12/Jan/12
Yeah i was pretty sure almost everybody was overestimating him!! I must admit I did a calculation based on Rob's head length (where he said his chin height is I deducted it from his height) and rough proportion and he was clearly less than another head taller and I actually got 6'5.44 but I thought him seemingly standing a little further back might have added a little. I thought I'd have looked stupid to estimate him under 6'5.5, as well...., this guy does look near 6'6" and I often underestimate people a little rather than overestimate them... There ya go that proves a legit 6'5" is huge. LAN Jiao might measure up well to him though or Kyle on the general page who is suddenly 6'5 after being 5'4"... Ahem...
We have a tie.. One more challenge tor the winner?
[Editor Rob: I think a tie is a good way to finish.
lan jiao is now under a new western name.] sean89 says on 12/Jan/12
hey rob i put 200 cm but my first thought for this guy was 196 cm 6'5 so i was 1/4 inch off that prob the closest ive bin on these hieght challenges tho i put down 200 cm i was suppose to put 196 cm cuase thats what i first thought he looked proves 6'5 looks a lot taller and becuase the camera made him look 6'6 in one of the pics.
[Editor Rob: 15's eyelevel is below average for his height...so from his eyes he probably is 'seeing' the world near 6ft 6.] Editor Rob says on 12/Jan/12
That's the challenge finished. It was a tough one I think.
I'm not surprised the overall guess was 6ft 6.2 because in the photos the top of my head comes near an inch below his chin.
5ft 8 actually is around the tip of his chin bone.
But we shot this 7-8ft away (like many of the actor photoshoots) and with the camera around my eyelevel in the horizontal shot meant there's always a chance the taller man (or celebrities) can potentially appear slightly taller.
The top 4 had guessed:
Alex 6ft 5 7/8th (197.8cm)
Triplescrew 6ft 6.72 (199.64)
Ka 199.8
Tim 198 ZAQ says on 11/Jan/12
199.93 Alex says on 11/Jan/12
Shaun, yea 6'7-6'8 is too much for him. He has 9.5-10 inches on Rob which puts him in the 6'5.75-6'6.25 range. jbf_182 says on 11/Jan/12
My guess is 6'4.75 Red says on 11/Jan/12
197,5cm Joey WW says on 11/Jan/12
199cm Tim says on 11/Jan/12
My guess is exactly *** cm.
Perfect height for mma
[Editor Rob: since you are top 4 I will not show yours, just to keep suspense ;)
Alex if you see this type your guess again, as I want to double check it as I wrote down the cm version and didn't store your feet/inches, so want to double check.] Shaun says on 11/Jan/12
@Witchdoctor
You need to buy some magical glasses. Cudmore has at least an inch on this guy with footwear disadvantage to Rob. I think the jawline/neck area and his posture is throwing you off and he creates an illusion of being 6'7"-6'8". If he's over 6'6.25" as Alex says I'd be very surprised. Barbarossa says on 11/Jan/12
196,4 legendaryVan says on 11/Jan/12
195.5 Witchdoctor says on 11/Jan/12
1.987meters... if he is under 2meters than I wonder how daniel cudmore is over 2m because truth be told he looks shorter than this guy compared to Rob Lozzer says on 10/Jan/12
199.25 Beastman says on 10/Jan/12
I have this strong feeling I'm going to be either as incorrect on this one as I was with #11 or worse. It's so obvious since almost everyone put a higher guess than me and I'm usually inaccurate. Emil says on 10/Jan/12

197.3 cm. Granted I initially thought he was around 6'7". His huge frame makes him look taller than he actually is. But I think some here will be surprised he is shorter than they think. Ajax says on 9/Jan/12
6'7". Alex says on 8/Jan/12
Lilo, def hes no lower than 6'5.5-6'5.75 range and could be like 6'6 1/4. I wouldn't say he looks more than that though JackUK says on 8/Jan/12

Alex compare him with the 6-3.5 kid . Yeah He is 6-6 at very least 6-5.5 Shaun says on 8/Jan/12
Note also he is actually standing a little further back than Rob so might be losing a cm or so. Dural says on 8/Jan/12
196.4cm taiwan is NO.1 says on 7/Jan/12
198.6cm Tommy says on 7/Jan/12
6'5.9 I'll say. Alex says on 7/Jan/12
This guy appears hes no less than 6'5.5 minimum really and could be slightly over 6'6 too Alex says on 7/Jan/12
Lilo, yea if you look his head is slightly titled up but if he tilts it straight hes still a head taller than Rob. question is how long is this guy's head. 10 inches? Hes easily 6'5 and change at least McLaggen says on 7/Jan/12
199.86 cm Lillo Thomas says on 7/Jan/12
The more I look the big guy pics he is looking 6-6 easily to me. Alex says on 7/Jan/12
Should be a bonus point for guessing this guys weight I think. I'd be willing to bet hes at least 370lbs Shaun says on 7/Jan/12
@Alex. I was being polite.. the shredder says on 7/Jan/12
Rob next to this guy is like Popeye vs. Brutus . This big guy is hard , but I bet money he is in the 6'6 range . I don't see a foot , yet at least 9 " sean89 says on 7/Jan/12
@shaun no this guy is prob 380 lbs but he should weigh 300 maybe 280 ... Amis says on 7/Jan/12
6'6.5 Cranberries says on 7/Jan/12
6'8", 342 lbs is my guess...

6'6"(198 cm) ANDREA[ITA] says on 6/Jan/12

198.7 cm Shaun says on 6/Jan/12
sean89 says on 6/Jan/12
@rob this guy should weigh about 250 lbs hes defintaly overweight even for his hieght.
250 lbs? Dude seriously you are way off. My uncle is about 250 at 6'3" range and this guy is far far bigger. This guy is nearer 350 than 250, seriously. I'd guess him at around 24 stone given his height range too. He's about the size of some of the NFL players I've seen who are about that weight. Height I will guess on 11 January but the more I look at it I have a feeling he is shorter than I had initially thought! Lillo Thomas says on 6/Jan/12
He is atleast 6-5 . Minimum 9 inches between him and rob xyz.reg(185.4cms-???cms) says on 6/Jan/12
challenger 15# 6ft 7.35in
I doubt he is below 6ft 7
@Rob...So u do take my words seriously..i asked u to get someone taller than challenger 13 and u did..i hope u get a 7 footer very soon..this guy is freakishly tall..huge....can take on 4-5 well built guys easily..i hope he never falls on anyone or else they will be crushed like a tin can..looking at his health i wonder what could be his diet..!!
[Editor Rob: this is the last challenge I'm doing, I don't know when I will do another series (or if).] sean89 says on 6/Jan/12
@rob this guy should weigh about 250 lbs hes defintaly overweight even for his hieght. hard to guess but i think hes no less than 6'6 prob 6'7 sean89 says on 6/Jan/12
@rob 200 cm for challenge 15 random guy says on 6/Jan/12
I'm bad at this but...197.45 lol Alex says on 6/Jan/12
Rob, my first guess didn't go through. It came up as **** for some reason haha but my guess was
[Editor Rob: yes I blanked it out, I am going to blank out yours/triplescrew/tim/ka as those are the 4 guessers who could win. More fair I think.] Osman Vaserman says on 6/Jan/12
I think he's 195.1 cm linke says on 6/Jan/12
6'6'8". the shredder says on 6/Jan/12
Hard WOW , 6'6 is my best guess ... I'm for Alex or TripleScrew , Maybe a underdog ? Matt (184 - 186)cm says on 6/Jan/12
Well, as I've missed many challenges I cannot win :(. But I guess this guy is maybe 6ft 6 Mr. R says on 6/Jan/12
Okay, since I have been so bad at this, I will give it one last shot. I would say 6 foot 4 and a quarter. 177cmmm says on 6/Jan/12
Lol 202.45 cms?
Im probably off like 10cm..... Beastman says on 6/Jan/12
195 cm Anamalech says on 5/Jan/12

Final challenge
6'5.75 ANDREA[ITA] says on 5/Jan/12
Lol, Rob! This guy is huge (and im not talking about his height)! He's obviously very tall but he has a huge body. Is he a rugby player? :)
[Editor Rob: he said he used to, but does some MMA.
] Triplescrew says on 5/Jan/12
A true giant...Cranberries would be proud Jon says on 5/Jan/12
197.5 cm me thinks... avi says on 5/Jan/12
Rob, where do you find these huge people? i'd say just off the top of my head:6'4.13
[Editor Rob: from around the corner from my street.] Roman says on 5/Jan/12
14. Big ... man =) 6 ft 5.75 in Steven says on 5/Jan/12
wow.. what a huge men.. this page is fun.. im new and guessing this is a end challenge. but i would have guess this big guy is around 199cm Shaun says on 5/Jan/12
Hahaha awesome Rob I was expecting another 6-1-6-2 guy but you sure saved the best till last. This guy looks hard as hell, I wouldn't want to face him on a rugby/American football team or anywhere else for that matter!!! Josh B says on 5/Jan/12
Finishing on a high :P
6'7.25 Anon says on 5/Jan/12
14 is ginormous! At least 6'6" for sure! 199cm miko says on 5/Jan/12
I don't think he's quite as tall as I first though.
6'6.25 Rob. QLR says on 5/Jan/12
6 foot 9 and a half inches Theman says on 5/Jan/12
Ok did terrible in last height challenge for this guy i am going to go 200.50cm. Hopefully this might redeem me lol. MrGoodGuy says on 5/Jan/12
I know this is my first guess in the challenge and would still love to try it. My guess for #15 is 201.7cm. Alex says on 5/Jan/12
Triplescrew, it looks like its down to me, you and Tim. This is prob only a 5 point challenge so at most Tim would tie us I think.
[Editor Rob: it's back to the usual 10/8/5/3/1 points, so any of top 4 could win it currently.] Alex says on 5/Jan/12
My estimate for this guys height is *****.
Rob who is this guy though? He could be a very intimidating person I bet!
[Editor Rob: he's a volunteer who lives round the corner from me.] Alex says on 5/Jan/12
Wow this guy isn't just tall but hes huge. Looks to be 375-400lb range with over a 20 inch neck!
[Editor Rob: he said he does some MMA.] FiveNine says on 5/Jan/12
Looking like you got some Mafia protection just in case....
A solid 6'6.2 and I mean solid!!! Editor Rob says on 5/Jan/12
This is the final height challenge.
Jenny took these photos about 7ft away from us. The horizontal one she took it normal stance, the vertical one she lowered the camera maybe a foot lower than her eyelevel.
Good luck... 177cmmm says on 5/Jan/12
Darn I missed challenge 14... Alex says on 4/Jan/12
Triplescrew, it has all come down to the final challenge! This is going to be a pretty close one. And yea we all have an addiction to this site LOL A says on 3/Jan/12
My money is on Alex to win it all.
[Editor Rob: my money is on one of the 4 names I mentioned ;) I think it could go either way with the last challenge.] Triplescrew says on 3/Jan/12
To Alex, Tim and Ka,
Good luck! No matter who wins we can all call ourselves height nerds with an unhealthy addiction to this site, lol. Jack says on 3/Jan/12
Hey Rob, sorry to be a pain but shouldn't I be listed in third place for the result of 14.4? I didn't make the final cut. She was 149.55cm and I guessed she was 149.2cm (4'10.74") whereas linke (5th) guessed 4'10.6"/148.85cm) Matt (4th) guessed 4'11.13"/150.2cm, and Sam (3rd) guessed 4'10.67"/149cm which I was slightly above. Shredder in 2nd place guessed 4'10.75", I was 1/100 of an inch behind that.
[Editor Rob: I see there were 2 Jacks, I've now called you JackUK and put you in the 14.4 with shredder at position 2 and 9th overall. Jack1 didn't give the kid value.] Alex says on 3/Jan/12
Rob, I got 5 points in 2 of the challenges so wouldn't that be 10 points total instead of 8?
[Editor Rob: the overall is separate from the 5 individual.
So you scored 8 + 5 + 5 = 18 points in this one.] Alex says on 3/Jan/12
Nice I am tied for 1st now. I kinda thought I was out of the race! I am glad I got the little girl's height bang on. I am a bit suprised 14.2 was a MM under 5'9 though Shaun says on 3/Jan/12
Pretty good guesses really although I thought your Dad's hair Rob would have flattened down more! He must have been 5 ft 10 peak? Surprised 14.4 though is almost 4'11", I thought if anything I might have overcooked it.
[Editor Rob: she could just manage almost 4ft 11 for a measurement, but standing normally in a photo she's closer to 4ft 10.
yes he was 5ft 10 peak.] ANDREA[ITA] says on 3/Jan/12
Rob why im not in the 14.4 result? You put linke who said 5'4.9" which is 164,846 and not me that said 165,1 which is obviously closer :O
[Editor Rob: I had the 2 heads .3/.4 in the wrong position for the result image, so I've swapped them into correct position now.] Parker says on 3/Jan/12

Apologies - Its just me that's lost track of the days lol!! Parker says on 2/Jan/12
Shaun says on 2/Jan/12
Well Rob something you said about your chin level I doubled the length of your head and she was still shorter than 4'0.75 and thought 3'9" range didn't seem too far off. But usually when I think my estimate is good I end up just missing out on the points!! Grrr. Let's hear the results then and disappoint!
[Editor Rob: I'll have to do this on Tuesday morning as - the result - as I don't have time today.]

I am really curious to see how tall 14.5 the kid is. That was a very tough one to call since hes that short. Also 14.4 the lady looks a full head shorter than Rob or slightly more.

Ah nice, thank you Rob, this goes to shoe that a legit 6'0 is not average height and still quite tall. It's funny when some people claim they feel average when they are 6'0 and above in the general height section lol. xyz.reg(186cms-187cms) says on 24/Dec/11
Hi rob..can u post challenger 10's eye-level measurement..was it 172.3cms..on average its 11.5-12cms for men..??
[Editor Rob: 4.5 inch is typical, the taller the average will increase a little, so it might be 4.5 around 5ft 9, but 6ft 3 could be 4.7 on average etc.
yes his is in the 172cm range] |
