Hugh 191cm says on 9/Nov/09
Can pull off looking a solid 6ft at times I guess.
Jareth says on 15/Oct/09
In a few Doctor Who things I have, John is listed to be 185cm, so he's about 6ft 1 Daii says on 7/Oct/09
Looks 6 foot dead on. Cant see him as 5'11 hes definitely over. James says on 20/Sep/09
For sure a weak 6footer Gazza says on 19/Sep/09
I think he's about 6'0 dead on. what was he like in person Rob? he seems like a nice, funny guy on tv.
[Editor Rob: he's funny, but very naughty minded.] Hugh 191cm says on 14/Sep/09
Actually closer to 5ft11. 181cm maybe? Hugh says on 31/Jul/09
5'11". Nothing more than that. Mike says on 24/Jul/09
Weak 6' JJ says on 20/Jul/09
He looks about 6 feet. What a handsome dude guys, Hugh 191cm says on 5/Jul/09
Yeah almost 6ft. T.J. says on 26/Jun/09
looks 6' to me linebacker40 says on 12/May/09
Yeah, I agree with you, James. A much taller Tom Cruise. greg says on 8/May/09
Rob, you look like a young Ballesteros(6ft even,BTW) glenn says on 7/May/09
and i know i have bad ones.lol. glenn says on 7/May/09
the pic on the left is the best ive seen you look rob.this is why you should have never covered your face.i understand it though.i did that elsewhere.the face covering.so celebs wouldnt reconize me selling.all 3 of you look good in this pic.
[Editor Rob: thanks, all pics, good and bad are shown nowadays.] Alex says on 6/May/09
Rob, this guys forehead looks a bit long. Longer than mine I think. His eye level is probably 5 inches from the top of his head. If you compare it to the picture with me.
[Editor Rob: he does have wide face and like a lot of celebrities they have thicker hairstyles...
I used to have a thicker hairstyle 10 years back: Here!] rob89 says on 5/May/09
Looks 5'11 max in this photo imo, maybe even a little less than that. I'm a solid 5'8 & my dad actually is a legit 5'11.75, and when we stand next to each other the difference is definitely a little bigger than between Rob and Barrowman. Plus like Alex mentioned, he has a slight shoe advantage too.
[Editor Rob: but he's scottish so he gets benefit of doubt...
no, he isn't as tall as alex, he could be 5ft 11.5.] miko says on 5/May/09
Rob do you think 5"11.25 or 5"11.5 could be closer to the mark?
I always thought he was a solid six footer but your photo's show he isn't unless he is dropping posture.
[Editor Rob: he's standing better on the right photo, giving a big squeeze actually!] Alex says on 5/May/09
The more I look at this picture this guy looks closer to 5'11 than 6'0. I could be wrong. Since he has a 1/4 inch footwear advantage over Rob and his hair may give him a bit of an edge too. J.J. says on 4/May/09
looks about 5'11.5" Nate says on 4/May/09
looks 5'11. He was great in Shark Attack 3. j.Lee says on 4/May/09
rob u used to cover your face. but y not anymore
[Editor Rob: to increase visitors.
although looking at the stats...they've gone down the last week! Bad move eh!] Sunil says on 4/May/09
nice evisu t-shirt =) Alex says on 4/May/09
I was looking at the difference between me and Rob to this guy and it looks like I have around 1/2 inch more on him than Rob does and thats including this guys 1/4 footwear advantage. Also his hair may give a bit. He's over 5'11 but may not even be 5'11.75. Alex says on 4/May/09
The photo to the right he looks 5'11.5ish. Anonymous says on 4/May/09
he looks 5'10.5 with you Rob. I see a max 2.5 inches difference, and his hair makes him seem taller. you already mentioned thicker shoes. unknown says on 5/Oct/08
hey 5'11.75 looks very close to 6'0 but you can see a very slight difference about only 1/4 inch. JJ says on 15/Sep/08
I work for a company who provide doubles and stand-ins for TV shows, incuding Torchwood and Doctor Who, and the sheet for John (which has all his stats) says he is 6ft. They would not lie about the height requirements out of vanity since a match between actor and stand-in is essential. shelly says on 20/Jul/08
i thinkfor jhons hight he is very tall but it does suit him . I wouldnt fancy him if he was too short because his hight suits his build karin says on 2/Jul/08
I met him on the set of torchwood and i do belive he's 6'0" Editor Rob says on 7/May/08
Yes indeed I was there Sara. Funny how in 2006 Barrowman had not much of a queue at london film con, then 2 years later his next signing appearance he had thousand people queing for his auto and 450 paying $40 for a photo with him. He was wearing a new balance sneaker, might have had slight edge on me, but he looked near 6ft. Sara says on 6/May/08
I met John this Sunday at Collectormania, he's tall. Also saw Rob a few times, very easy to spot and rather smiley :) rx says on 8/Mar/08
hes about the same height as tennant who's listed just about everywhere as 6"1 Alex says on 4/Feb/08
OK, He's taller than Gareth David-Lloyd, who's registered as being 6'. He towers over him about 3" and a head taller than Eve Myles. You can see his shoes, and they have a basic sole on them. Explain that one.
[Editor Rob: Lloyd ain't 6 foot...closer to 5ft 11 mark.] Sian says on 12/Jan/08
Your height can vary though so he may look different heights on some days Shirley says on 1/Dec/07
He obviously looks very tall most of the time. I think.
And he is really well proportioned. Cardiff says on 3/Jul/07
I saw Barrowman on the set of torchwood in Cardiff Bay - he is at least 6ft. He is a very well built guy, which probably makes him look shorter on screen. Jenny says on 29/Apr/07
He signed an autograph for me and I reckon he's just about 6ft. He looks shorter sometimes because he's quiet solidly built Bill says on 18/Dec/06
He does look smaller than Chris Eccleston but not enough to make much difference, 6' sounds about right. perhaps 5-11 1/2. George says on 10/Nov/06
On the Jonoathon ross show, who is listed as 6'`, John looked at least 3 inches shorter than him. Hes 5`10.5 max, he has good proportions. alice says on 14/Sep/06
but on how do you solve a problem like maria on bbc the performance shows the four girls with him and in about three inch heels they are about his height, maybe 1 inch under and those girls (connie, helen, aoife and siobhan) all look fairly tall... Phil says on 5/Sep/06
He's about 1 inch smaller than Christopher Eccleston. Does this make John 5'11 or Eccleston 6'1?
[Editor Rob: in person barrowman is very close to his own 6ft claim. They were close on Doc who for sure] WOT..................Way!!!!!! says on 11/Apr/06
He looks smaller than Christopher Eccleston on doctor who and his height is written as 6foot as well i can't tell who's height is the correct one. Anonymous says on 7/Feb/06
He looks bigger than this on that rubbishy ice dancing show.
[Editor Rob: one of those guys who I think lies between 6ft and 6ft 1...I think I'll put him back to that middle mark as beside David Seaman that looked about right] CelebHeights Editor says on 12/Nov/05
He is listed as 6ft by his agency, well 182cm. |
