Lenad says on 28/Dec/08
A strong 184 or a weak 185. He doesnt look below 6ft0. Just doesnt look a proper 187cm.

James says on 22/Dec/08
Ross is defnintly in the tall range.

Lenad says on 19/Dec/08
He doesnt look below 6'0. Hes still a reasonably tall guy.

Lenad says on 17/Dec/08
Your on the money there James!

James says on 15/Dec/08
Hugh the thing about Clarkson being 6ft5 is that he never really look a true 6ft5er and I think he has been listed at 6ft4 a lot as well.

Hugh says on 14/Dec/08
I'd say Clarkson is between 6ft4 and 6ft5. 194cm. Under 6ft4 is utter bull.

James says on 9/Dec/08
Lenad I agree I have always wondered about 6ft5 for Clarkson although I guess his heavier build and poor posture can make him look shorter.

Lenad says on 9/Dec/08
Because Clarkson really is no more than a flat 6ft4. 6ft5 is utter bull.

Lenad says on 7/Dec/08
When he stands next to Steve Martin and Tom Hanks I think for Ross 6'0 1/2 barefoot and 6'1 1/2 in shoes makes most sense.

James says on 5/Dec/08
The strange thing is Ross does look 6ft2.5 next to suppoused 6ft5 Jeremy Clarkson. Either Jonathan Ross wears lifts next to him or Clarkson is no more than a flat 6ft4?

Hugh says on 5/Dec/08
I think Ross might be 186cm. If he is 6ft1.5 then we would have to upgrade some Celebs.

Hugh says on 5/Dec/08
No he actually looks about 1-2cm shorter than Will Smith.

Lenad says on 3/Dec/08
I was watching an old 1987 interview of him with Steve Martin on Youtube and he looked about 1 inch taller. Probably measures at 187cm in shoes and 184cm without shoes.

James says on 1/Dec/08
He does look 187cm next to Will Smith give or take.

Lenad says on 30/Nov/08
When he stands next to guests like Jay Z he doesnt look a proper 187cm. I dont think he is quite as tall as this listing. I wouldnt go lower than 6 ft 0 though.

Hugh says on 26/Nov/08
Agreed Greg. Rob if you'd please do so!

James says on 26/Nov/08
This is one guy who I don't belive is 6ft1.5 becuase he looked the same height as Tom Hanks (5ft11.75-6ft), Denzel Washington (184cm), Trevor Eve (5ft11.5-6ft). Nicolas Hoult who is only 6ft2 looked over 1 inch taller than Ross. I suspect as well that when taller guests come on the show he migh wear a slight lift to look taller. Then again he did look the same size as Will Smith so to be fair I think Ross should be downgraded 1cm to 186cm he's a probably a weak 6ft1.5.

Greg says on 26/Nov/08
time to downgrade ross and upgrade brand!

Hugh says on 25/Nov/08
I think Brand is 188cm and Ross is 186cm.

Greg says on 22/Nov/08
if hes shorter than brand and brand is 186cm according to this site than ross is about 183/184cm .

Hugh says on 8/Nov/08
No, Brand's eye line was above Ross's. He's about 0.5-1 inch taller than Ross. Ross is 186cm at best and Brand is 6ft2 at best.

James says on 7/Nov/08
Yeah but remember Russel Brands crazy hairstlye

Hugh says on 1/Nov/08
Russel and Johnathan did to Andrew Sachs was disgusting. Anyway James I do agree that Brand was taller than Ross. I'd say he's a good 6ft2.

James says on 29/Oct/08
There is this video of Russel Brand and Jonathan Ross, its strange becuase in the vid Russel looks a bit taller than Ross.

James says on 29/Oct/08
186cm seems good

Bruce says on 29/Oct/08
i will give him 6'1.25" same as gordon ramsey

James says on 18/Oct/08
Next to Jeremy Clarkson he looked at least 6ft2, I smell lifts? I think he wears maybe bigger footware next to Jeremy. I also need to point out he looked close in height to Sacha Baron Cohen.

Daii says on 17/Oct/08
Im sure he lies, I mean comedians can get away with it after all. He just doesnt look 187 cms. I think 185 cm at most. 6 foot i would generally give him.

Lenad says on 17/Oct/08
Hugh I think Ross is tall but the fact he is visibly slightly shorter than Will Smith makes me think Ross is 6'1.5 in shoes and 6'0.5 without shoes.

Hugh says on 17/Oct/08
I doubt he even reaches 6ft1.

James says on 17/Oct/08
Hugh well he is kinda obssesed with is heigth isn't he? Also how come as well he looked the same size as Trevor Eve or maybe a bit taller?

Hugh says on 16/Oct/08
He's not 187cm. He's not as tall as he says he is. Actually not as tall as he'd like to be.

Lenad says on 15/Oct/08
Ross being a proper 187cm guy I'm always skeptical of

Hugh says on 13/Oct/08
I'd say Ross is more 6ft1ish. 184-185cm.

Anonymous says on 13/Oct/08
You are wrong about 6ft, he deliberately hunges when he has smaller guesses like stallone and farrell. When he stands up straight he is about four inches taller than them.

James says on 5/Oct/08
Trevor Eve's hair maybe gave him an advantage when he was on the Jonathan Ross show.

Hugh says on 4/Oct/08
I'm beginning to think he's no more than 6ft. He's not looking even 6ft1.
He looks tall when he walks through the door then his 6ft1.5 and 6ft2 claims suddenly go down the drain when guys like Will Smith and Jay Z walk in lol.

James says on 2/Oct/08
No he's over 6ft but next to Trevor he looked the same size though!

morning-6ft says on 1/Oct/08
i saw him with jodie kidd(3 inch heels) on his show,she absolutely towered above him,so i think he's no more then 6ft.

James says on 30/Sep/08
Lenad I don't think Jonathan Ross is going to be downgraded anytime soon, and even if he did it would only be 185cm or 186cm.

Hugh says on 30/Sep/08
I hope Johnathan Ross gets downgraded to 184cm. If that ever happens, I'd say Ross would come on to the sight complaining about it lol.

Lenad says on 30/Sep/08
It isnt the end of the world if Ross gets a downgrade to 6'0.5 because he clearly is above average. Hugh I said one of the few celebrities you downgraded and then you said a good few celebrites. Hence why I said "Few".

Bruce says on 26/Sep/08
Zach I agree with you a hundred percentcos I know this guy who is about nearly 6'1" but he always claims he is 6'2"

James says on 25/Sep/08
Hugh yeah, most people I know who have met Nicolas Hoult have had bad things to say about him! Guess thats what being famous can do to you.

Hugh says on 25/Sep/08
Lenad there are actually a good few celebrities on this site I think should be downgraded. Johnathan Ross, Alec Baldwin, Jeff Daniels, Alfred Molina, Barack Obama, Mark Wahlberg, Uma Thurman, Conan O'Brien, Dave Letterman, Julian Glover, Luke Wilson, Puff Daddy.

Lenad says on 23/Sep/08
I estimate 6'1 for the guy. He looked 1 inch shorter than Will Smith who is roughly 6'2. I am a bit skeptical of this listing. Hes fairly tall but not as tall as 6'1.5.

Hugh says on 23/Sep/08
No I'm Irish. Nicholas Hoult was a little ****. He wouldn't pose. Fame can really ruin kids.

Lenad says on 20/Sep/08
This is one of the few celebrites that Hugh has downgraded. In addition, i dont think Ross is over 6'1 but instead just scrapes it.

James says on 18/Sep/08
Ian actually I would disagree he looks slightly shorter than both legit 6ft1.5ers like Will Smith and Jay.

Hugh you said you met Nicolas Hoult? What was he like in person? Also Hugh are you American?

Ian says on 16/Sep/08
Hugh how sure are you on the exact inch? Did you measure him or was it simple a guess which isn't exact at all. Is your uncle exactly 6ft2 on the nose or is he a touch above it? You get the picture.

JR is 6ft1.5 it is pretty much established fact because he appears to be the same height as a lot of 6ft1.5 celebs.

Hugh says on 15/Sep/08
My legit 6ft2 uncle met Ross about 1 year ago and said that Ross was exactly an inch smaller. He's 6ft1 on the nose.

Hugh says on 15/Sep/08
What you don't want to be is over 6ft5. 6ft-6ft4 is a good height. Anyway Ross isn't 6ft2. I'd say he's barely 6ft1. He also becoming quite annoying when he brings up the subject.

James says on 14/Sep/08
Anybody 6ft or over should be proud of thier height. You don't wan't to be too much if at all over 6ft.

Zach says on 13/Sep/08
On the Jonathan Ross show (12/sept/08) Abigail Clancy (girlfriend of Peter Crouch who is 6ft 7") was on the show, Ross aked her about her height and she said she was '5ft 9' flat. Then Ross got out this O.T.T. cardboard cut out of Crouch which was about 8ft high........... and they all tried measuring themselves and Ross stated twice "i'm 6ft 2"

???

even with dress shoes on Ross still looks 6ft 1/ 1.5". People seem to forget that 6ft 2" is very tall, I've met so many people who are 6ft/6ft 1" saying that they are 6ft 2"........maybe because it makes them feel more proud????

*just be proud of your given height*

miko says on 13/Sep/08
Rob, he claimed 6"2 last night on his chat show when talking to 6"7 Peter Crouch's girlfriend. He said, "well I'm 6"2". Perhaps he was just rounding up not to sound awkward but I think its worth a mention at the top.

James says on 11/Sep/08
The funny thing is Jonathan Ross guessed Jay Z's height at 6ft at first when he appeared on the show, but i think then Ross said "6ft2"

James says on 9/Sep/08
186cm on the nose is my guess

Hugh says on 9/Sep/08
185-186cm maybe? or maybe he is 6ft1.5 and Jay Z is 6ft2+.

James says on 31/Aug/08
Whats your take on Jonathan Ross's height hugh?

Hugh says on 29/Aug/08
He's only 45 so I don't think he'd lose height so young. I personally think Jay Z is a legit 6ft2, not a hair more or less.

James says on 28/Aug/08
Hugh yeah I agree Jay Z was sligthly taller, the question is though has Jonathan Ross shrunk to 6ft1? Perhaps his height listed here is his peak height

Ian says on 28/Aug/08
Zach, Gok Wan claims he is 6ft1 but only appears 5ft10 next to a woman who said and he said was 5ft10 on his show 'How to look good naked'. Gok wan was way shorter than Ross.

Jaz Z wasn't a inch taller, Ross was the same height as was Will Smith. You forget there is a platform when they come and hosts use camera angles that maximise the height of their celebrity guests. The greeting area is raised in such a manner, that it makes the host appear an inch smaller and his star guests an inch taller. Watch when they stand up to leave. Same height.

Hugh says on 27/Aug/08
I agree James. Jay Z was at least an inch taller than him.

James says on 27/Aug/08
186cm suits him better personally

James says on 25/Aug/08
I thought him and Will Smith always look similar in height. Okay I think at peak Jonathan was 187cm, nowdays he might be 186cm or at lowest 185cm

Lenad says on 12/Aug/08
Okay 6'1.5-6'2 Will Smith was clearly an inch taller than him. I think Ross is
6'0.5-6'1 barefoot. Seriously Rob, peg this guy down some hes no more than 6'1

Scott says on 9/Aug/08
Jay Z 110% had at least an easy inch+ on this guy, yet they are listed at the same height??

Something has to give here ... either Jay Z's listed height should be increased ... or Ross' listed height should go down.

As I have met neither I can't speculate ... but if I had to guess I would say Jay Z is 6'2+

Anonymous says on 25/Jul/08
He said to Jay-z, you are taller thain I thought...what are you 6'0/6'2. Jay-z did not respond to that question. I think Ross is 6'0 flat

Anonymous says on 21/Jul/08
Ian.

Both Will Smith and Jay-z were taller than him on the show, it was pretty obvious actually.
He even said how tall he thought Jay-z in real life was, he said he thought jay-z was a good 6ft2. Obviously he felt shorter, as he thinks of himself as 6ft 1.5.

Zach says on 15/Jul/08
Gok Wan thought Ross was 6ft 4", but Ross stated he was 6ft 1.5" in the show other night. so this is true.

jay says on 14/Jul/08
either jonathan is shorter or pete doherty is way over 6'2". because as you can see in this video theres clearly more than 1 cm between these guys.
i tend to think doherty is 6'4"

Click Here

Ian says on 27/Jun/08
He is the exactly the same height as JayZ and Will smith. 6ft1.5 does sound right for these guys. They are tall but not very tall.

Greg says on 26/Jun/08
Andy Murray is 6ft3 so 6ft1.5 sounds right anon.

Lenad says on 23/Jun/08
He claims to be over 6ft1 but I'd say barefoot he probably just scrapes it.

Anonymous says on 9/Jun/08
Ross looked about an inch to an inch and half shorter than 6'1 Andy Murry who was on his show this friday gone. I would say Ross is 6'0 flat.

Yaspaa says on 25/May/08
Euan,you are over a third of a foot taller than average,that's tall whether you feel it or not.
J.Lee,Most of your friends are over 6ft?? Basketball players have no relation whatsoever to average height so using them for comparison is lame,it's like using jockeys to prove that every bloke is 5'2.
All actors are about 6ft???.
2006 National health statistics show 16-24 year olds average is 5'9.6

J.Lee says on 22/May/08
NO i think the average height nowdays for a guy is 6 foot tall. Most of the people i knew from highschool are 6 feet and over, most of the actors are about 6 feet. Almost every basketball player is 6 foot. Almost every baseball player.

Euan says on 22/May/08
well im 6'1 and 3/8ths (those 3/8ths are important!) and i dont consider myself tall

Halb says on 15/May/08
I don't think J Ross is obssesed or has a 'problem', no more than anyone here. Just like us he is interested in people's heights and naturally would ask aboot them on his show.

Yaspaa says on 10/May/08
I saw that show James,it was quite funny when he found out he was only 6'10,I even thought the doc who measured him was gloating a little.

Yaspaa says on 8/May/08
It just goes to show James,everybody has a different perspective which is why I like to stick with statistics and not my own impression,however hard it is to ignore,regards.

Yaspaa says on 6/May/08
National statistics don't lie,6'1 is tall (top 8%)unless you are an ego driven 6'5 youth who thinks short is every height under his own,are those the guys you mean James. I have met those guys,I may have even been one of those guys in my school days but at 33 and with a lot of hindsight 5'9 - 6'1 is the preferred range I would wish to be at,so 6'1 really is a maximum.

Yaspaa says on 6/May/08
Just my personal opinion.

Yaspaa says on 29/Apr/08
6'0 is tall,you say it's only 3" over average but that's 1/4 of a foot. OK ,it's not stand out tall but statistically you are in the top 15% and that is for 20 year olds,so the percentage will be even higher for the whole population. As for the perfect height,for me,if I could choose,probably 6'1.

Genny says on 26/Apr/08
Saw him in London by chance..twice, some years ago when with my ex who was 6ft 1 and a half and Ross was next to him, looking at comics. Ross was the same height..over, 6ft tall. However..does he now wear lifts or a higher heeled shoes, now ? He looks taller than he used to be but can't be !I'm suspicious...

terry says on 25/Apr/08
Jon looked tiny compared to 6ft 7 steven merchant. He was at least 1.5 inches under Merchants eyeline who had bad posture. Im sure he is no taller than 6ft at all.

Hugh says on 24/Apr/08
People who are under 6ft even get describeed as tall. Fine he's 6ft1.5 but he can look less.

lillo thomas says on 22/Apr/08
I agree with james . To say that 6-0 isn't tall isn't silly . 6-0 guys are taller than average but not by much . 6-0 is in the above average range .

BlackRay says on 22/Apr/08
How Tall are you then, James. 6 ft is tall, it's silly to say it's not.

Viper says on 20/Apr/08
6-0 is tall Hugh. No wonder you think everyone is taller.

BlackRay says on 19/Apr/08
A 6ft person man or women is consider a tall person period.

Hugh says on 19/Apr/08
I know you have to be over 6ft to be tall. I think Ross is no more than 6ft. James how tall are you again.

Chris says on 18/Apr/08
Ross is 6'1'' and maybe that half as well, he is a tall man, you can see that he is quite tall. 185+ FOR SURE

TJ says on 18/Apr/08
Hugh, at over 6ft Jonathan Ross IS tall. Not a giant maybe, but certainly tall.

Hugh says on 17/Apr/08
Johnathan Ross just wants to be tall. Someone has to break it to him that he's not.

little one says on 9/Apr/08
this is interesting. Tim Henman has been well known to be 6'1. Ross looks 6' max to Henman's 6'1. This makes sense as Ross' obsession with height on his show suggests that it is on the forefront of his consciousness and he may feel insecure or inferior to those taller than he.

irishguy says on 4/Apr/08
Editor Rob: he's on the exempt list.]

What does this mean Rob, that he is exempt from a downgrade, because he specifically contacted this site with this statistic and you can't change it?

guk says on 2/Apr/08
Tim Henman was always listed as 6ft 1 and Ross is no taller, possibly slightly smaller
Click Here
Click Here

Ross is under 6ft 1 imho

guk says on 30/Mar/08
My guess is Trevor Eve is taller than 5ft 11.5 Maybe 6ft 0.5, unless there is some wierd slope on the platform to make the guests appear taller. Sutherland has possibly lost a little since his prime. I think Ross is 6ft 1.5 in shoes and 6ft 0.5 without

guk says on 29/Mar/08
Trevor Eve was exactly the same height on JRs show. Eve is listed as 5ft 11.5 on this site.

hi says on 24/Mar/08
id say he 6 ft i saw him next to the guy who plays borat 6'3 and he seems to be 3 inches shorter and also next to will smith who is 6'2 and he seem 2 inches shorter.

anonymous says on 16/Mar/08
brah, i think it means rob gives him what he claims. sort of like stephen "jumbo" keyes

ragh says on 12/Mar/08
he is 6ft seen him at show

Brah says on 11/Mar/08
He looks closer to 6 foot a lot with his guests, and should be downgraded. Probably was measured 6'1.5" in shoes.

exempt list, what's that mean Rob?

another anon says on 11/Mar/08
The guy who says Ross was slightly taller than Philip Schofield gives the biggest clue. Schofield was measured on This Morning at 5ft 11.25 without shoes using an electric height machine for some BMI test they were doing. That would make Ross around 6ft 0.5 inch or 6ft 1 max barefoot.

anonymous says on 8/Mar/08
i cant see ross being under 6`1 myself

TJ says on 3/Mar/08
Hard to tell how much taller the Rock was with that angle. Plus, at the point where Ross shakes hands with guests, I think the floor is supposed to favour the guest. When they get up later in the video to mess around with that exercise ball, there doesn't seem to be much difference.

dmeyer says on 3/Mar/08
looks 185 cm with goldblum so 184 185 6'0.75 could suit him

dmeyer says on 3/Mar/08
he realy looks under that near will smith and the rock ross needs a serious dongrade to 6'0.25 to 6'0.25 like 184 cm

dmeyer says on 3/Mar/08
i agree the rock looks 2.5 in taller so 6 ft 0.5 in for ross looks closer

Dude says on 3/Mar/08
You need to downgrade ross.
That is just rediculous...

most people below 6 ft have a thing about height,"SIX" is the magic number,i'd say he's 6 ft max (barefoot)and i beleive most celebs give their height with shoes on,.the doc is wrong about brothers heights, i'm 5ft10&1/2 and my older brother is 5ft5&1/2 ,but more importantly WHY is he talking about genitals ?

Wow, the Doc sure talks garbage. Kinda funny though, as after saying "BUT END OF THE DAY, WHO CARES !!!! DONT MATTER HOW TALL YOU ARE", he then goes to paint a picture of how terrible it is to be tall :-)

DR DAVID FERGUSON says on 27/Nov/07
Jonathon Ross is not over 6ft fact, have met the guy, im 5'10 and i dont remember particularly looking up at him, is no way hes over 6ft and if he s because he's wearing raised shoes. In regards to brothers. I agree brothers are nearly alomst the same hieght, i have 3 brothers one older and 2 younger. We are all exactly the same height to the cm. When we was kids I was actually the first to grow and was 5'9 by the time i was 13, 4 inches taller than my older 14 year old brother and prob 6/7 inches taller than both my younger brothers 12 and 11. It stayed just about that way till my older bro got to about 16 and the same with both my younger bros' they ll caught me up just seems like i had my growing spert a few years before them. My Dad is 6'1 and my mum 5'2 so everyone always thought i took after my day and my bro's my mum, especially as i look a lot more like my dad then any of my bros. But was not the case as we are all now we are all 5'10. and same build at the ages of 27, 26, 25 and 24. BUT END OF THE DAY, WHO CARES !!!! DONT MATTER HOW TALL YOU ARE IN FACT IS PROVEN PEOPLE BETWEEN THE SIZE OF 5'9 AND 5'11 ARE MORE HEALTHIER AND LESS PRONE TO DISEASE THAN THOSE BELOW AND ESPECIALLY ABOVE AVERAGE HIEGHT. ALSO BEING OVER ABOUT 5'11 MEANS YOU HAVE LOW BLOOD PRESSURE AND IS ALWAYS TALL PEOPLE WHO SUFFER WITH IMPOTENCE AND ERECTION PROBLEMS ASWELL AS OTHER CONDITIONS. ALSO ANOTHER FACT IS THAT MANY TALL MEN ARE NOT VERY WELL ENDOWNED IN FACT VERY MUCH THE OPPOSITE. BECAUSE BOYS STOP GROWING WHEN THEY HAVE COMPLETED PUBERTY SO THE FACT IS THE TALL MEN HAVE SMALLER YOU NO WHAT BECAUSE THERE BODY HAS BEEN TO BUSY GROWING UPWARDS FOR THERE BODY TO DEVELOP TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL. IT IS FACT THAT IN THE UK 1 IN 26 MEN IS VERY SMALL IN THE TROUSER DEPT LESS TAHN 4 INCHES AND MANY PEOPLE WOULD NOT BELEIVE THAT OUT OF THIS 1 IN 26, 85% OF THEM ARE OVER 6FT. IS THE SAME WITH WOMAN, TALL WOMAN ARE LESS FERTILE THAN SMALL WOMEN BECAUSE THEY FINSHED PUBERTY LATER. IT IS PROVEN FACT THAT MEN OF BETWEEN 5'9 AND 5'11 ARE ON AVERGAGE MUCH BETTER ENDOWNED THAN TALLER AND SHORTER COUNTERPARTS. THE WHOLE BEING TALL THING BEING HEATHY THING IS COMPLETE MYTH. THE ONLY REAL ADVANTAGE TALL PEOPLE HAVE IS THE ABILITY TO COPE WITH SERIOUS INJURIES BETTER (MORE BLOOD CELLS) BEING AVERAGE HIEGHT NOT ONLY GIVES YOU A BETTER CHANCE OF A LONG HEALTHIER LIFE BUT IT ALSO MEANS YOU ARE MORE FERTILE AND BETTER EQUIPED.

MPV says on 5/Oct/07
Well, I've actually been bumped into by Jonathon Ross in the street. He was chatting to someone with his back turned to me, said "I'll see you anon" to the guy, then turned round sharply and clattered into me. My head hit his chest. I'm 5ft 9. He looked massive to me as I looked up. I'd say he's 6ft 4 in his shoes. Rude sod never even apologised, just went "Oops" and carried on....

Rusty james says on 20/Sep/07
Yeah i agree with that person "anonymous" jonathan ross is f8cking obsessed with people's height lol.But u say he's "only 13 stone" like that's light lol.

RatedR says on 24/Aug/07
On his interview with Pete Doherty (who is 6ft 2). Doherty towers above Ross, so i would say he's 5'10 - 6ft.

he is not 6'1.5 i meet him yesterday my friend i was with is 6'2 Jonathan was WAY taller then my friend

Anonymous says on 22/May/07
Ross was slightly taller than philip Scohfield who does look a legit 5'11 who appeared on his show recently. Ross was about an inch taller, hence he is most probably 6' barefoot and 6'1.5 in shoes.

Saw him in Selfridges during last summer, he maybe six foot but certainly no taller (5.11 & 1/2?). Also only about 13 or 13 & 1/2 stone, looks much bigger on the screen - just like everyone else!

I agree that it seems like Ross has a height complex, even at his tall height.

Rossy is obsessed with height, anyway he was same height as Pee Doherty on friday night with Jonathan Ross.

Ross looked about 2 inches taller than the 5'10 (some say 5'9 or shorter) Adam Sandler on his show last friday. Ross is probably 6' barefoot and 6'1.5 in shoes.

He was interviewing ant and dec couple weeks ago and he asked dec how tall he was and he asked back well how tall are you he sed "six foot one and a half" and dec stood next to him and said well im 5-6 and a half, "the half's important" and dec was saying how freakishly tall ross was when standing side by sidde.

This guy has a height complex.

J-Dog says on 31/May/06
How often does he mention his height, damn!

Mikex says on 1/Apr/06
Ross is a tall guy but not massive. He looks 6' 1.5''. As he says this is his height I see no reason to doubt this.

newjon says on 31/Mar/06
sorry, i meant dec said he was 5ft6.5, not ant

newjon says on 31/Mar/06
today when he interview ant and dec, he stated clearly he was 6ft1.5, He compared himsef with ant who claimed he was 5ft6.5 . Thing is though there only seemed to be about 5inches max between them!

He said on his radio show yesterday that he is 6'2, but he wears big shoes. So I'd say that around 6'1 1/2 barefoot is about right.

I've always been curious about Ross's height. But then I am obsessed with height! He is deffo between 6'1 and 6'2.5 tho' to me. I do remember Paul Ross saying he was 5'11 in Fit Club, and I also remember him discussing him on Sue and Mel's "Light Lunch" where he bemoaned the fact that Jonathan was younger than him, better looking than him, richer than him and taller than him!

But does anyone remember this--Evander Holyfield towering over Jonathan during the comedy awards show (either 1998, 1999, 2000 or 2001)? Odd, and how come? Maybe Evander was wearing lifts?

Im actually going to change my mind on ross and accept the fact that he probably is 6,1 1.5 i saw the programme on a rerun and accept that he must be that height can't see why he would lie about he's exact height. Although lynam seemed to have deffently of shrunk he seemed about 2 inches shorter than ross. Indicating with age height loss is clear i personally don't think lynam is 6.1 1,5 anymore he's deffenlty only about 6,0 now.

[Editor Rob: when they first met I thought they looked nearly same size...]

TheMan says on 22/Oct/05
He probably wishes he was 6,1 and 1.5 more like 6,0 tops. Sorry ross lol.

CelebHeights Editor says on 22/Oct/05
Yesterday again he mentioned height on his show. When Des Lynam said he was 6ft 1.5, Ross said he was 6ft 1.5.

TheMan says on 17/Oct/05
Yeah thats what ive been thinking tubbs. He wasnt as tall IMO he simply wears bigger shoes. It's the same story as with mariah carey didnt look as tall as like when she first started now poeple think shes massive but fact is shes not as tall as poeple make out IMO just that she wears massive heals. However Ross is still tall just not gigantic like he seems now. IMO He's no more than 6,1 at best. But in the old days he seemed no more than 6,0 to me.

Tubbs says on 17/Oct/05
I've also noticed that the last 5 years or so Ross has looked a lot taller, and that all of a sudden he starting mentioning peoples heights, and asking guests on his chat show how tall they are. I never remember him being a 6'2 guy in the 90's, which is what he looks like know....Has he been borrowing Sly's shoes? Any ideas people?

[Editor Rob: I am pretty sure mid 90's I read him being described 6ft 3...seriously! I thought he was a strong 6ft 2 to begin with]

The Man says on 29/Aug/05
Oh just found some new evidence proving ross is deffently 6,0 see youre picture when ross is with penny and tim henman. Well Henman is 6,1 know that from he's tennis records look at their trainers. Ross is wearing chunky ones whilst henman is slouching abit losing about a cm and 1/2 maybe and wearing flat shoes or deffently lower shoes and he's still clearly over ross whos got glasses on aswell so you can't tell he's eyes are lower down. So ross has got to be 6,0 at best. But he on he's chat show is 6,3 simply because he's wearing massive massive shoes. I wouldent be surprised if he was as much as 6,4 he deffently wears some special made shoes maybe risers. He almost deffently thinks about he's height aswell. And on the show he always asks people their heights.

TheMan says on 29/Aug/05
Actually youre right. Ive noticed in very large familys like say someone whos had five boys for example 4 of them were 5,8 to 5,10 or something. And then there was one who had some ridiclous height that doesnt even add up like 6,4 or something and it wasnt geneitical because the dad was like 5,6 it was just a freak thing. I know brothers height can be slightly diffrent like by two inches and i am the same im 2 inches taller than my two brothers but most of my family are around the same height as my brothers are so it does happen. But i personally think Ross is pushing 6,0 even with the pic with he's brother he's blatently around the same height of 5,11. And Paul Ross is only mid 5,11 at best as on fitclub andy fordam the darts player whos 6,0 seemed to be quite abit taller than ross so he must of been low 5,11. So i still think johnathon is 6,0 at best. He simply wears massive shoes that im sure of. Years ago he didnt seem to be that tall all of the sudden he seems to have gained about 3 inches and is about 6,3. I swear he was once nearly as tall as lennex lewis so if he could look nearly as tall as him when he's blatently about 6,0 then he must be wearing elvator shoe. He probably knew Lewis was on and though oh id better raise my shows so that im 6,4 lol. He could be but im betting he's no more than 6,0. Andy Foredam was taller than Pual ross even by the picture with john and paul below it was blatently obvious. To me from the picture below both paul and john are the same height 5,11.

Not sure I agree with you regarding brother's heights- my brother is 4 to 5 ins taller than me. I've two close friends, one has a brother 4 ins taller like myself and my sibling, the other has a brother 6 ins taller.
