Hi Rob, do you think Adin Ross could be in the 5’8”-5’9” range? He definitely seems taller than what Google says.
Editor Rob
Could be 5ft 8

@Untold

I think the hair is giving Speed a huge advantage. But surely he might sprout to 5'8 ½.

It’s a possibility for him, but I don’t think he’d be much more than that, if he did grow a final fraction or two in the next year or so, maybe he might end up at 5’8.75, but definitely no more than that.
Andrea said on 2/Dec/24
Just recently with Shannon Sharpe I actually fail to see 5'8, don't you, Rob? Click Here

@Rob

You should look at Kai Cenat he's the biggest streamer in the world next to Speed.

I think his range is the weirdest one to guess. He could look like two inches taller than Ice Spice then magically look under 5'4. I'd say 5'3 ¾ to 5'4 ¼ range for Kai
Vadela3 said on 28/Nov/24
I would give him the full 5’8 since he pulls off looking as tall as 5’9 a lot of the time without any sort of lifts or anything and never looks shorter than 5’8 nowadays, also looks roughly 2 inches shorter than KSI which would put him in the strong 5’8 range.

Surprising he actually grew past 5’7 tbh, I remember seeing his listing last year and people were arguing if he was even the full 5’7, but these days looks much closer to 5’8 so he might’ve actually grown another cm or 2 past 18.
7272 said on 27/Nov/24
I'd give him 5'8 there. Dan Hooker is listed at 6'0 but he's probably a weak 5'11 or flat

Click Here Connor & Dan

Speed and Hooker Click Here

Speed could get an upgrade to a full 5'8
Editor Rob
I think I will give him the 5ft 8 now, it seems closer at age 19.
Untold said on 27/Nov/24
It's a toss up for me of whether this guy could get 172 or 174. There's a clip of him stood next to Yung Filly who I remember measuring around 175cm and they honestly look very similar. Speed's hair might help but he's also stood on sightly lower level ground so 5'8 flat isn't unreasonable at all, maybe even 5'8.5 Click Here
nz said on 27/Nov/24
What do we think about this guy?
Claimed speed is 177 cm by analyzing pictures and camera warp
Click Here
Editor Rob
Speed's posture definitely is all over the place, just had another look at him and can see the argument that he can look in 5ft 8 range. Not sure I'd guess him as tall as 177cm though.
5'11james said on 26/Nov/24
He’s definitely got to be around 2.5 inches shorter than 5’10.5 KSI nowadays.

172-173.5 for Speed
David Dehayne said on 25/Nov/24
Looks 5ft 8 possibly even 5ft 8.5 barefoot with UFC star Dan hooker in there recent spar
bmb said on 25/Nov/24
@Rob Now he's consistently claiming 6'1", you think he is joking? This is one clip out of several. Click Here
Editor Rob
Yeah he's joking alright!
7272 said on 25/Nov/24
I'd actually give him another upgrade.
7272 said on 24/Nov/24
I'd give Speed a full 5'8 or 5'7 ¾. Dan Hooker who's listed as 6'0 in the UFC more of like a weak 5'11 looks 1 inch taller or 1 ½ inches from an angle it's weird Click Here

He's usually hunched which makes people perceive that he's shorter.
bababooey 176-174cm said on 24/Nov/24
Not that short. 5'8 flat
Untold said on 23/Nov/24
I used that Filmot tool someone else recommended and found out he's also claimed to be 165-170 pounds a couple times which I find hard to believe he could weigh below this height. At first I thought he was exaggerating his weight for comedic purposes but he weighed in at 78kg before a bungee jump Click Here
5'11james said on 23/Nov/24
Yeah he does look like that range to be honest, I’d give him a weak 5’8 at the lowest, and 5’8.5 at most.
Lell said on 22/Nov/24
I'd give Speed 5'8, or atleast 172-173 cm tall. Dude was 5'6-5'7 back in 2021 when he was 16 but it's evident that he grew a bit taller, as he does not look that short in his streams anymore and was not that much shorter than 5'10.5" KSI.
sdka said on 22/Nov/24
he needs an upgrade. just recently i saw a video of him next to noah lyles who himself claimed 5'10" in the video. pretty sure he is in the 5'8" - 5'8,5" range
Heightist9999 said on 29/Sep/24
welcome back Rob! Nice upgrade, he Speed is over 5ft 7 nowadays.
Cooper Clarke said on 29/Sep/24
@5'11james Actually I think I did see a photo of Speed and Deji together in 2023 and they looked the same height, with Speed being maybe a little taller.
5'11james said on 28/Sep/24
It would be really interesting to to see both Speed and Deji stand by each other again, since Deji is 170.8 or 171cm, and Speed is definitely this listed height, or maybe a fraction or two over at the most.

Last time they stood by each other was 2022, and Deji edged out Speed, which he probably was a weak 5'7 or a flat 5'7 back then.
Cooper Clarke said on 25/Sep/24
Nice upgrade! Can look 5’8 sometimes.

What height would you list Kai Cenat at? Around weak 5’4 range? Could be another celeb to consider. I'd also like to see Niko Omilana and AJ Shabeel on here because we haven't got any Beta Squad members yet. Niko's in the 6’4 range and AJ's max 5’5 imo. Niko in particular is quite big these days. (As is his height) I could also see a few of the Sidemen's friends on here at some point, like Callux, Calfreezy, Randolph, Lazarbeam, etc. whenever you wanna do them. There are many photos of them with the Sidemen themselves and Freezy was once measured at 6’2 and 5/8ths range.
5'11james said on 25/Sep/24
Good upgrade Rob!

He has awful posture so he looks around this, he's definitely grown abit, but i do believe he could pull off 5'8 range if he had good posture...
dreus23 said on 24/Sep/24
@Andrea

Google lists Speed as 5'9 currently. Looks to be an 8 inch difference there. He's probably a strong 5'8 nowadays
cammy said on 24/Sep/24
he's not this short. in fact, not really short at all. 172cm
Andrea said on 24/Sep/24
5'7.5 is the minimum I was thinking...
Btw, I don't know if you know this site, but it can be quite useful to find height claims (and whatnot) through Youtube transcripts: Click Here For example, by using the key "how tall are you" in his channel Click Here , I found him claiming "5'10/5'9" last month: Click Here Which I'd say is a bit optimistic anyway.
Editor Rob
It's useful, I could see him saying five nine too.
Cooper Clarke said on 24/Sep/24
@Andrea At the time Rob made this page Speed was 5’7 but it's possible that he's grown a bit since then.
Andrea said on 23/Sep/24
Are you sure he's only 5'7, Rob?
I barely know who he is, but with Ibra I'd have guessed him taller: Click Here Or maybe Ibra has shrunk... 😬 Even he says he thought he'd be taller: Click Here
Editor Rob
I think a few folk over the last year were thinking 7.5 at least for him.
5'11james said on 26/Apr/24
169.5-172
5'11james said on 25/Apr/24
@Cooper Clarke

Yeah there's a chance that Speed could've grown a bit in the last year or so.
Cooper Clarke said on 25/Apr/24
Well Rob, I reckon Speed might be due for an upgrade now. He looked the same height as Neymar who is 5’8 flat, doesn't look any shorter than Deji nowadays (who I, along with many others on here, think should be upgraded to 5’7.25 at least), and I believe Speed's at the age where he can still grow since he's only 19. (Growth tends to stop at 21 for guys, though you can stop growing earlier than that of course) I'd say Deji's 5’7.25 and Speed's now 5’7.5. (can look 5’8 tho I'm not sure if he's the full 5’8 yet or not, but he can't be a flat 5’7 comparing him to Neymar) I'd say 5’7.5 is a good enough listing for now, but he could reach the full 5’8 soon. He could claim it at this point anyway. (Not 6’1 though, that's just ridiculous 😂🤣) And I'm pretty sure that in 2022 he was like 5’6 to 5’6.5 so Speed's obviously been growing since then since he's clearly not 5’6 anymore.

You could look into more recent photos though just to be sure of Speed's actual height, and then decide if you think he's grown and if you will upgrade him, but I think Speed is taller than listed nowadays by at least half of an inch.
Rondo99 said on 24/Apr/24
Hi Rob, how tall do you think Duke Dennis from AMP is approx? He claims 6’2 but looks closer to 6’
Editor Rob
6ft 2 sounds optimistic for him, I think 6ft to 6ft 1/2 might be closer.
Cooper Clarke said on 21/Apr/24
Hi Rob, do you think Speed could have grown taller? I've heard lately that he's starting to look more 5’8 these days.
Editor Rob
Maybe 5ft 7.5

Professional_Drive said on 19/Sep/23
It's all genetics for his height.

There's a photo of him from several years ago with his dad, and he only looked 2 inches shorter than him at the time, and his mom doesn't look much taller than 5 feet in the photo she's in.

I don't think he's going to grow anymore. Maybe an inch, but he's pretty much in the short-average range.

It's like how Adin Ross's dad is short. It's all genetics.

Click Here this youtuber estimated Kai Cenat to be 5'3.75 to 5'4 actually pretty decent take here
Editor Rob
Near 5ft 4 does look plausible. He did a video with Ice Spice and with a sandal on could look a couple of inches taller.

I highly doubt he’s gonna grow anymore as he’s looked the same height for the past year.

@Rob

This is the most subscribed twitch streamer Kai Cenat

Click Here (with 6'2 listed Kyrie)

Click Here (10:15 with 5'7 flat Speed)

Click Here (0:20-0:30 with 178.8 KSI)

Click Here he measured himself super inaccuratly at 63 inches

He's way closer to 5'4 than 5'3

I'd say 5'4 is a good listing for him
Cooper Clarke said on 13/Apr/23
@1212 Speed's definitely not taller than Deji. And Deji's not even 5’7.75, he's probably like 5’7.25 to 5’7.5 max and Speed's just 5’7 flat. 5’9.5 is way off. He's also way more than an inch shorter than KSI who was measured at 5’10.5.
GERAD HOKJH said on 13/Apr/23
Ive always thought he was 5’7. Seems spot on
brien said on 12/Apr/23
Kai is probably 5'4 not 5'3 because you can see the 5'4 reaches the top of his head and also that measurement is unlikely to be accurate
7272 said on 12/Apr/23
Then if Kai is 5'3

Agent is 179.7 cm weak 5'11
Davis

Duke Dennis is probably almost 6'1 so 184 is decent for him

Fanum and Davis are in the strong 5'6 to 5'7 range

AMP Chris is 5'8-5'9
rajsk said on 12/Apr/23
@1212 KSI is a flat 5’10 and here he is with speed, quite a few inches shorter:

Click Here

Deji is also arguably 169-170, not 172 and speed looks the same height (keep in mind he’s slouching a little which makes him look a fraction shorter)

Click Here
1212 said on 11/Apr/23
Nah I'd more say he's like 5' 9 1/2 (176 cm), when he is standing straight he doesn't look too much shorter than KSI who is 5 10 1/2 (179 cm), he's also noticeably taller than deji who's about 5 ' 7 3/4 (172 cm)

Britney Spears fan 2000 said on 10/Apr/23
He just turned 18 its possible fir him to grow more just dunno how likely that is.
Cooper Clarke said on 9/Apr/23
@7272 I honestly wouldn't rule that out if he's still growing. An inch growth after 18 is still somewhat possible even if most don't grow after that, so 5’8 is definitely possible. I think that the most I can see him growing to is like 5’9, but that's of course only if he's lucky. (Like I said earlier with 5’8-5’9 being the most I can see him reaching)
Discord said on 9/Apr/23
It's near impossible for him to grow to 6'3. Genetics sometimes can skip tall height. I knew someone who was 175 and 19 years old male, his mom 179, his father and his older brother both 190 cm. Genetics can be cruel sometimes.
7272 said on 9/Apr/23
I think he'll grow to 5'8.
Sinous Silver said on 6/Apr/23
@Cooper Clarke:

Completely agree. 6'3 is merely impossible for him at his current age. It may have been different if he were 14-15 years of age. Also agree regarding 5'8/5'9 being his best case scenario. I was 5'7 at 17 and grew to 5'8 at 18 and that was a lucky final spurt which many don't get. In all honesty, it's very likely he's done growing completely.
Cooper Clarke said on 5/Apr/23
@ExpertHeightInspector Ok, a few things I wanna say here, 1: Not all people will grow to a certain height just based on their parents' genetics alone. 2: Speed is already 18, which is the age where most males tend to stop growing, and even if it's not completely stopped by that point, probably not much growth left, unless they're a late bloomer, like Jewels already pointed out on this page. And 3: Even if Speed was still growing, I doubt he'd reach anywhere near 6’3 because that would be an 8 inch growth which is a huge growth for an 18 year old after they turn 18, even for late bloomers. Maybe 5’8 or 5’9 if he's lucky, but even then that's probably unlikely to happen. He'll most likely just stay at 5’7 until he gets older and starts to lose some height.

When you say someone is 5'7 does it mean they are 5'7 right after waking up, or is it their minimum height?
Editor Rob
I would think more towards lunchtime. I believe he clears 5ft 7 out of bed!

@Jewels- I've grown almost 4 cm since I was 18.
El Gato said on 1/Apr/23
Listing is good, i watch him often and I think he would measure just around 5'7, although i wouldn't go over it personally, better chance of 5'6.75 than 5'7.25 🤪
ExpertHeightInspector said on 31/Mar/23
He'll most likely end up being 6'3 due to his parents genetics. Give it 2-3 years and then do a reassessment.
Mrahman said on 30/Mar/23
Is 5'6.5 possible rob?
Editor Rob

That was the lowest range I thought he could be…
Cooper Clarke said on 29/Mar/23
@Britney Spears fan 2000 I wouldn't say quite a full inch between Speed and Deji, maybe half an inch max but definitely not a full inch. Speed is close enough to 5’7.
FriedChicken said on 28/Mar/23
@56zain1 High School football team listings aren't accurate they're either very rough measurements or self reported. One of the linemen who was listed as 6'3 for the high school I went to, was at most 6'1 - 6'1 1/2 range compared to me.
RC-XD4 said on 28/Mar/23
@56zain1

That's just a listing, they do that. ive stood next to speed and he looks about 5´6 1/2 if not 3/ 4.
7272 said on 28/Mar/23
@Britney Spears fan 2000

I think that photo of Speed and Deji is horrible. Deji was closer to the camera that made him look taller.

I do think Deji deserves a fraction upgrade though, he looks a smudge taller than Floyd Mayweather

He is 5'8. He is listed as 5'8 by his football team.

Britney Spears fan 2000 said on 26/Mar/23
He is shorter than deji deji is like 5"6-5"7 because ksi is like 5"10 and he's been measured. Deji is like 3-4 inches shorter and speed is like a inch shorter than deji. Woah Vicky is also the same height I'd say deji is actually 5"7 a d speed is 5"6

You sure you’re 6’6 then? 9-10 inches would put speed between 5’8-5’9, which is impossible. He’s lucky if he’s 5’7.
Gian 181cm said on 24/Mar/23
There's a photo of him with Joao Felix who claims to be 181cm, although the angle isn't good, he looks to be in the 5ft9-10 range in this photo.
Let's agree that even the angle is not good 4.25 inches is hardly disguised.

Ive met Speed before and Im 6'5 3/4 (6'6) and i towered over him and adin who i think is about 5'8. I think i had about 9-10 inches on him.
Cooper Clarke said on 23/Mar/23
@moonlight2024 I never said Speed was unintelligent, I just found it funny that he is literally listed as bang on 5’7 on here, which is the same height as he calls out Messi for being (although Messi is actually only listed as 5’6.5 on here so Speed is still slightly taller than Messi) because of how coincidental it is, and not necessarily because of his height claims. I never said anything about Speed claiming to be 6’1, as well as claiming 6’2 once, that is not why I called it hilarious.
Ben - 6'1 said on 23/Mar/23
@Moonlight

He’s not joking lol. Look at his reaction when the other guy says he’s only 6’. He doesn’t believe him.

I’ve seen enough of Speed to know he’s far from intelligent, or funny.

People only like him because he’s so stupid that it’s entertaining.

Unlikely. Most people don’t grow when they’re 18 and over unless they’re maybe a late bloomer, he’s likely at his adult height since he’s been the same height for two years so it’s extremely doutbful he’s gonna grow anymore.
moonlight2024 said on 21/Mar/23
@Ben I think if you can't tell an obvious joke then you are unintelligent. Very ironic to call Speed the unintelligent one when it's you! Speed plays a role for humor. Everyone knows he isn't 6 foot, so he says it sometimes to mess around. Have some social awareness - people joke a lot. Same with @Cooper Clarke
adrianposter said on 21/Mar/23
you should also add adin ross whose another one of those famous streamers as well, he slightly edges out speed like 5’7.5-5’8 range
Cooper Clarke said on 21/Mar/23
@DZT Speed also laughs at Messi for being 5’7 when he is literally exactly 5’7 himself which is hilarious.

IShowSpeed has ‘wild staring eyes!’ Yes, indeed a perfect example of such eyes, as described in Pink Floyd - The Wall.
Ben - 186cm said on 18/Mar/23
He claimed 6’1 once which is insane Click Here

Not to be rude but I don’t think he’s a particularly intelligent guy to think he’s 6’1 when he’s clearly short. What’s worse is the guy he’s with in the clip calls him out on his claim and then Speed estimates the guy at 6’4, which means he thought the guy was only 3 inches taller than himself, despite there being a solid half foot between them.

The unknown guy claims 6 foot, which would make Speed max 5’6, but if you really think Speed is 5’7 then maybe the other guy is 6’1. I haven’t seen enough of speed to be sure personally.
Editor Rob
Never claim to be 6ft+ when you stand beside and have to look up 5 inches to a real 6 footer 😃
Cooper Clarke said on 18/Mar/23
5’7ish range is fair. He could be a quarter inch shorter than Deji based on a photo of them together but Deji could be 5’7.25, and he also looks around 3 inches shorter than KSI, so I will give Speed 5’7 flat.
Juicy James said on 17/Mar/23
Yeah he’s 5’7 flat he’s only like 3 inches taller than 5’4 Kai Cenat
James (179cm) Jones said on 17/Mar/23
I'd give speed 5'6 ⅞ or a flat 5'7.

He's got a bad posture tho, as seen in a clip with KSI and Speed both doing a face off, which KSI is 5'10 ¼ or 5'10 ½, jj looks a solid 3 or 3 ¼/½ inches taller than speed, even though Speed has really bad posture.
