He's always consistently looked 6'1". No more than a fraction loss and could have been the 186 cm range.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 26/Jun/17
He hasn't really lost anything...
Canson said on 23/Jun/17
@Christian: I can also see that possibly maybe weak 6'1" at worst. I've met Vernon Davis in person before and he looked 6'3 in person

Obama may be 6'0.5", at least in recent years. Don't know if he has lost any height or not. This is a 2014 photo where he looks 3.5" taller than Darius Rucker who's 5'9" (I can confirm he's 5'9" because I met him at an airport once and he looked 5'9") Click Here

Obama: 6'0.75-6'1
Trump: Peak: 6'2-6'2.25 Current: 6'0.25-6'0.5
Curry: 6'2-6'2.25
Mark(5'9.25 said on 15/Jun/17
I still think more 6'1"-6'1.25" at times.
MJKoP said on 12/Jun/17
An anti-Trump faux "Wanted" poster lists Obama at 6'1.25" I wondered if they averaged the two WH measurements to reach that figure? I actually do think it could be closer than a flat 6'1", at least for peak...yes, I said "peak". If you look at his face(and hair!) in 2008 vs. 2017, the guy has aged tremendously, as do most two-term POTUSes...though in Barack's case, I think it might be an all-time extreme! I have no probably believing that at a relatively young age he has dropped 1/4 or even 1/2 an inch, despite being otherwise athletic and physically fit.
Liberty183.3 said on 12/Jun/17
Not difficult to tell; he's a weak 6'1''.
Canson said on 7/Jun/17
@mark: see the Obama pic with Vernon Davis. He's over 2" shorter. Davis is his listed draft height of 6'3.25 and that's his real height (not inflated). Obama may fall 6'0.75 afternoon/evening that's not impossible. Trump doesn't have the best posture and has lost height more than likely. Obama is also a good 1/2-2cm shorter than curry is. Put curry into perspective I played ball against Jarrett jack before and he's a legit 188 maybe 189 and he's still a good 2cm over Curry
Mark(5'9.25") said on 6/Jun/17
A weak 6'1" would mean that trump now is no more than 6'0". I can see Obama at 186 cm and Trump 184 cm now.
Canson said on 3/Jun/17
Obama looks weak 6'1" with Vernon Davis more 6'.75
berta said on 1/Jun/17
i still think he looks like a 186 man most of the time exept beside basketball playerc can make him look this height. With all other people he look about 186 to me.
Nik said on 31/May/17
@ HonestSlovene

Yes Obama is definitely taller than Trump, it is just a matter of by how much! You could be right or there could be slightly more difference!
HonestSlovene said on 30/May/17
Obama: 185.5 cm, Trump: 184.5 cm.
Rory said on 18/May/17
I'd agree he has maybe a cm on Trump in footage/pics but it'd be interesting to see what the difference would be when measured. At 70 your posture worsens and so called hidden height comes into it, they might actually measure very close to one another.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 16/May/17

Trump is clearly taller than Obama mu friends

Barack Obama would be taller than Peak Harrison Ford
meezemaker said on 13/May/17
he's a lift wearer,

Communication first...dont forget as thé président of the usa, u cant be towered by the canadian...Who is supposed to be an inch taller.

Maybe Obama has large feet ...usually these shoes has thicker heels😉
Canson said on 6/May/17
@Berta: I'd give Obama the edge he'd prob be legit 6'1" peak. Ford probably strong 6' don't think he's full inch shorter tho maybe 1/2"
berta said on 4/May/17
30 years ago obama and harriosn ford back to back. How mutch taller do you guys think obama would have been? i can believe 2,5 cm

@Editor Rob: Rob, is it possible that Barack was in his youth though 6' 1¼" (1.86 m)?
Editor Rob
I think up to age 50 he managed to hold onto his height well, I doubt he shrunk more than a tiny fraction.

I still struggle to see Obama at 6'0.5". He's really the 185-186 cm person.
Canson said on 24/Apr/17
Can't see shoes here but I'd imagine both the same since they're in suits likely just dress shoes.

Vernon Davis looks close to 3" taller than President Obama. a 6'3.25 Davis puts Obama at 6'0.75 most likely
Canson said on 21/Apr/17
185cm maybe 185.5. No less no more
Mark(5'9.25") said on 19/Apr/17
Obama is really the example of a 6'1"-6'1.25" person.
shiva 181 cms said on 18/Apr/17
He looks an exact 6'1 as tall as a legitimate 6'1 guy can be
This listing is spot on
Kaneff 6'0.25 said on 18/Apr/17
He's pretty much a textbook example of 6'1". 185.5cm
Cq: said on 18/Apr/17
I think obama could easily claim to be at least 6 2. If trump gets away calling himself 6 3 then obama is taller than trump and should be marked at 6 4 in fact. He is certainly one of the tallest 6 1s i have ever seen. So i honestly think around 6 2 is fine. I think its fair to say most people his height call themselves 6 2 and pass for it. In shoes with a bit of hair i think he would touch the 6 3 mark comfortably and even just brush past it.
Warren said on 17/Apr/17
Hi Rob let me ask u once again, which is u think taller Obama or Trump now?
I still think Trump a bit taller than Obama or at least they r the same to me
imo is Obama 182-183cm, Trump 183-184cm
Editor Rob
I think Trump is still a fraction shy of Obama, although at times they can look quite close.
Ron said on 15/Apr/17
Rob who do you think is taller him or Murray?
Editor Rob
Murray looks taller from what I've seen of both.
Hans Meiser said on 14/Apr/17
He always seemed tall to me.
Canson said on 11/Apr/17
A 195 (194.945 to be precise) Kobe Bryant makes Obama about 185cm-185.5 at his lowest. He's in that boat where he's close enough to 6'1" to claim it.

i honestly think obama would clear 186cm because he always seems to have a inch and and a half on most 6ft flat celebs.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 9/Apr/17
I think 186cm is debatable. Doesn't look to have really lost anything
berta said on 9/Apr/17
i still feel that the odds for obama is higher that he will measure 186 range than under 185. 186 is what he looks.
HonestSlovene said on 7/Apr/17
@S.J.H Isn't Kobe about 6'5"? If so, he looks exactly 4 in shorter, making him roughly 6'1". The listing is spot on. My prediction is that he will hold on to at least 184 cm untill his late 60s, then he will go under the 6'0" by the age of 75-80.
S.J.H said on 6/Apr/17
Click Here Obama is 184cm
HonestSlovene said on 4/Apr/17
@TMI Probably lost about 0.25-0.5 and is roughly 6'1" flat now. Same happened to my father (went from 5'11.5" at 50 to about 5'11"-5'11.25" at 59), just like Cameron said shrinkage for men usually starts after 50, for women after 45.
Borats Chicken said on 4/Apr/17
rob, how tall would Joe Biden be 6ft range?
Cameron said on 3/Apr/17
@TMI I doubt he's lost anything noticeable yet. Maybe 1/4 of an inch at most.
TMI said on 3/Apr/17
Is it possible he's lost any height? Typically people start getting shorter in their mid 50's
Christian-196.2cm (6ft5.25) said on 2/Apr/17
His 6ft1.5 mesurement in 2016 most likely took place barefoot during early morning, because in order for him to be measured at 6ft1.5 in shoes, he must be no taller than 6ft0.5, which I can't see him being.

out of bed/early morning: 6ft1.5
afternoon/evening: 6ft1
before bed: 6ft0.75-6ft1
Chris said on 28/Mar/17
So you have a 2016 medical stating he is 6'1.5 exactly, and you're still debating it?

Why do you have him as 6'1 when you have scientific evidence he's 6'1.5?
Editor Rob
his medical from several years earlier had him at 6ft 1.

It's unknown whether it was socks or shoes though.
S.J.H said on 27/Mar/17
@Canson

Atually Kobe bryant make obama look like a max 6'0.5 , he maybe 6'1.5 put on shoes on a measurement
Dejavu said on 25/Mar/17
I thought he looked 0.5-1 inch taller than Trump.
John said on 24/Mar/17
Maybe not EXACTLY 2 inches taller. But he was a good 1-1.25 inches taller than Trump, who is 6'0.5. I'd peg Obama at 6'1.5.
HonestSlovene said on 21/Mar/17
@John Since when did he look 2 in taller than Trump? Both look within half an inch of each other at about 6'1" and Trump was taller than him in his 20-40s at an easy 6'2" peak.
Canson said on 20/Mar/17
@S.J.H: I doubt he's under maybe 6'0.5-6'.75 at his lowest. He looks near 6'1" most of the time
S.J.H said on 19/Mar/17
6'1.5" measurement morning with shoes and down to 6'0 might be true height
MrTBlack said on 19/Mar/17
That 6'1.5" measurement must have been a 1st thing in the morning measurement since to dip down to 6'1" flat would usually be within 6 hours tops if even that
S.J.H said on 18/Mar/17
@John

Lol obama was not over half inch taller than trump. HeightGuesstimator could have mean obama is 183cm but convert wrong in ft. Consider 6'4.75 kobe bryant look a full 197cm with obama. obama could be measured 6'1 in dress shoes and 6'0 barefeet
John said on 18/Mar/17
5'11? Not even close. He was at least 2 inches taller than Trump, and Trump is obviously not 5'9.
HeightGuesstimator said on 17/Mar/17
I stood right behind Barack Obama at a rally in Oakland, CA in 2007. People were really rallying him as a rock star back in the day. I'm a very accurate height-guesser. He looked about 5'11" to me, slim, elegant, someone you like and respect. He's so not 6'1".
Csimpson 6ft said on 16/Mar/17
Rob is 6ft 0.75 for Obama possible?
Editor Rob
I'd say that would be an extreme low range for Obama.
Dave said on 7/Mar/17
Rob, lets say both were measured without shoes, do you think its possible Obama increased his height?
Editor Rob
I don't think he increased it...but Obama certainly could have stood better for a measurement or got rounded up a little.

The 'Bust a Gut' measurement can add a fraction.
MrFish said on 27/Feb/17
Rob, I met Mitt Romney today (he's a month short of 70 years old). I'd say he's definitely between 184 and 186. A friend of mine is 188 and is clearly taller than Romney. I'd say 187-188 peak, 185 now.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 23/Feb/17
Rob, is 6ft1½ peak (pre-presidency days) arguable?
Editor Rob
I think I'm still happy with about 6ft 1 for him, maybe at 10am he could have been 186 range.
berta said on 23/Feb/17
i think its strange that the average guess is under 6y foot 1. i thought it woulb be liks 186,2 or something.to me he looks like a guy that never goes under 6 foot 1 and probably most days are 186 in the efternon
DetroitMichigan said on 16/Feb/17
@nick92 after this picture it seems clear Malia is under 5'11
HonestSlovene said on 15/Feb/17
@nick92 Drake is 5'11" and Obama is 6'1" so this is spot on IMHO. Drake's leaning in so he is loosing 1 in (he looks 3 inches shorter).
nick92 said on 11/Feb/17
is obama really 185cm flat look at him with drake and drake has a footwear advantage Click Here
Andrea said on 7/Feb/17
Whether Obama got measured in shoes or not is not arguable... He looks a genuine 6'1, barefoot! If he really was 6' range, many celebrities should be drastically downgraded! Even Rob... I mean, look at him with Jeremy, that Rob has met and said he is not shorter than him and likely a smidge taller: Click Here
There's not a chance he's 6'1 in shoes, unless he consistenly wears lifts but I highly doubt it ;)
He's probably one of the most genuine 6'1 on here!!!
Canson said on 6/Feb/17
@Honestslovene: have to remember Berta doesn't lose much height throughout the day (an anomaly). maybe why he sometimes overestimates
Johnson said on 6/Feb/17
You all shouldconsider presidents of the USA are registered from half inch to half inch, I mean 5'9.25 would be consider 5'9 and 5'9.75 would be 5'10.

The 6'1.5 for Obama must be a day passing 6'1.25 mark and the 6'1 could be just under 6'1.25 mark
Peter 179cm said on 6/Feb/17
If Obama is really 6'1 WITH shoes and 6'0 barefoot i guess Trump should also be downgraded to atleast 183cm if not 182cm since they look very similar height-wise.
HonestSlovene said on 5/Feb/17
@berta He can look 186 cm because that is his height earlier in the day. 185 cm before bed and 187 cm in the morning. Overral a solid 185 cm guy or 6'1".A fraction taller in his 20s-40s (6'1.25" or 186 cm).

Warren said on 26/Jan/17
Those pictures are a bit difference angles and we can't see their feets,
but yeah I do believe that Obama is 6'0" barefoot and Leo is more like 179 to me
Dmeyer said on 25/Jan/17
On the vidéo Trump dosnt look shorter than obama
S.J.H said on 25/Jan/17
@Warren

Just a fact that kobe claim he was only 6'4.5 and 6'5 in sneakers and obama look about 4.5 shorter than kobe. If that this report is true therefore obama is about 6'0 barefoot and the journalist who met leonardo dicaprio in person say that leo was not over 178cm which is reliable

Johnson said on 24/Jan/17
@Warren @Rob In those cases, normally they measure and weigh people with clothes and shoes, and in the case of height they discount 2 centimetres or an inch, example (measured at 6'2 so they write down 6'1), I know of people measure this way at the doctor and medical tests
DetroitMichigan said on 24/Jan/17
Hey Rob
Could you make a profil for Ange Kagame, she pretends to be 6'4" on his Twitter. I guess it's right or maybe 6'3"
Warren said on 24/Jan/17
hey guys and Rob plz read this, then Obama should be change to 182 or 183 in barefoot

"Sunday's report said Obama is 6-foot-1 (1.85-meter) and weighs 180 pounds (82 kilograms) in shoes and exercise clothing."
Click Here
Editor Rob
yes, I am aware, the problem is that in the actual medical report it said.

Height: 73 inches
Weight: 179.9 pounds (with shoes and workout attire)

the question was always whether he kept shoes on for the height portion of his physical...
Johnson said on 23/Jan/17
Now I read all Obama's medical reports: 2010: 6'1 and 179.9 pounds, 2011: 6'1 and 181.3 pounds, 2014: 6'1 and 180 pounds, 2016: 6'1.5 and 175 pounds.

In 2007 and 2008, before being president, Obama did not released height data
Canson said on 23/Jan/17
He would measure similar to Christiano Renaldo. 187-187.5 out of bed 185-185.5 at his lowest. If not a full 6'1 afternoon/evening (he likely isn't because the measurements don't take place that late), he's at least 6'0 7/8 or 3/4
Johnson said on 23/Jan/17
What about Obama's medical check of 2011? I didn't find information in the net
Editor Rob
I updated the link at the top to the archived version of Obama's 2010 medical report.

The question is if he was weighed in clothing and shoes, did he then take shoes off for the 6ft 1 measurement...it would seem likely that he did...
Johnson said on 22/Jan/17
Shorter than 187 cm Trump.
Obama is 185.5. Trump was a legit 6'3 as young. At 70 slouching and with bad posture, still is taller than Obama
Will said on 21/Jan/17
I would say he is 186 max before bed time. i.e. if Donald Trump is 185 max, they looked no more than half an inch different in height during the inaugural, remember Trump slouches abit.

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Jan/17
186cm peak is arguable…
Canson said on 12/Jan/17
Out of bed 187-187.5
Before bed 185-185.5

Keep in mind he also got a 6'1 listing deep into his 40s and this is how he looks next to 6'4.5 Michael Jordan or other celebs
berta said on 10/Jan/17
to me he lokes 186-187 just looke at him with tom hanks there is about 5 cm beetween them and hanks is 182-183 these days. i dont think obama is 187-188 but wehat i mean is 185 is to low in some way and 186 looks perfect to me.
Andie said on 7/Jan/17
And what about his daughters rob?
Do you have a rough guess for them?
I think malia is 6'.05 and sasha 5'9
Editor Rob
the elder daughter looks a bit taller than Michelle, so over 5ft 11 is very likely.
Andie said on 7/Jan/17
Rob, lets say he is 185.5 at his low, (like he is going to bed with this height) than it would be more appropriate to list him at 6'1.25 rigt rob?
Like 6'1.25 would be a small round up, but closer to the truth as his height would be about 186.
In my opinion that might be the case, since he said roughly 6'1 and he can look more than 6'1.
1/4 or 0.25 is just a small change, so he just rounds it down to a flat 6'1.
If he was 6'1.5, than i think he would say the 1/2 or say6'2.
Could that be right rob?
Editor Rob
I think you can make an argument for a little over 6ft 1, but I think he is probably a good example of 6ft 1.
tony t. said on 7/Jan/17
Actually my last comment doesn't matter. They look about the same height when looking at some other pics.
tony t. said on 7/Jan/17
Why was 6'1 Charles Woodson taller than him whenever the Packers visited the White House after they won the Superbowl?
Ellym said on 4/Jan/17
I don't think he is 6'1 in a photo next to Kevin Costner he is clearly shorter, although Costner is closer to the camera he is still quite a bit taller, if Costner is 6'1 then Obama is not.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 28/Dec/16
I would argue 6'1.25". Easily 187-188 cm with footwear.
Canson said on 28/Dec/16
Jordan isn't 6'6". He's listed 6'5" here but I think now this is good enough evidence to show he is 6'4.5 like it was claimed when he came in the league and that Obama is a flat 6'1.
Al said on 26/Dec/16
Obama recently Awarded Michael Jordan at the whitehouse and he only looked 3 inches shorter than Jordan. Jordan is 6'6 so is obama 6'3 or wearing lifts?
Editor Rob
Al, it is doubtful Obama is a lift-wearer.

But then, some men have done it as an 🖕 to troll others in real life. When you have a big guy like Klitschko trolling people by wearing lifts, you just never know...
Asian guy said on 21/Dec/16
I have met Loong a couple of times and he's around 5'10.5-5'11 range. I'm personally 6'2. He's probably 5'11.75 in shoes
MD said on 19/Dec/16
Thought it may look it on first blush, that's not a great comparison photo. I've always thought the Singapore president looked closer to 5'11" than he did 6'0".

Speaking of political leaders, I was surprised to find New Zealand's new PM is just as tall if not ever-so-slightly-shorter than long-time PM John Key, who is 5'9" tops. If it makes any sense, he seems to have a face/bearing of a taller man.
Johnson said on 16/Dec/16
I would say Loong is more of a 5'11-5'11.25 person(180cm-181cm). He can't be 6 foot because when he was pictured with Malcolm Turnbull(he's listed 5'10 on google), he looks to have an inch over him

Rob, how tall do u think Singapore PM is next to Obama?Click Here

Without knowing their footwear, he looks a legit 6ft in the photo, as listed on Google. But the camera angle gives Loong a slight advantage, so he might be 5ft11.5 in reality.

I think a big 6'1" like 6'1.25"-6'1.5" would fit Obama at his peak. Today, nothing less of 6'1".
packman said on 26/Nov/16
Flat 6ft for sure
Editor Rob
for Obama, I don't think there has been any serious guesses of him as 6ft flat, most have been 6ft 1-1.5 range from what I seen...

with some listings there's a bigger range of guesses, but Obama is one of the more agreeable ranges.
Judd said on 24/Nov/16
It's curious thinking about presidents height:

Bill Clinton was listed at 6'2.5", here his peak scheduled is 6'2 but i am sure he never been taller than 6'1.25-1.5"; George W Bush was listed 5'11.75" but he never looked taller than a flat 5'11...then Obama was listed before 6'1 and then 6'1.5"...i am very curious regarding the medical sheet of Donald Trump...

Then IMO the 6'1 Obama's measurement was barefeet or in socks!
avi said on 23/Nov/16
Looks under 6'1 next to Michael Jordon who could be 6'5 and change.
184-182 said on 23/Nov/16

Good point James!
James186cm said on 22/Nov/16
Keep in mind Obama used to be a chain smoker. Not entirely sure if that would have a serious impact on his height, but I doubt its helped him as he aged (now 55).

6ft2 range in shoes
slurkapfson said on 19/Nov/16
Obama is a solid 6'1, and looks tall in appearance and amongst others. I think 185cm is fair, but he's probably 187 when he wakes, and is a solid 6'1, at around 186 ish later morning to afternoon. I think it would be fairer to list him as closer to 186.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 18/Nov/16
Rob, would Obama be similar to Luke Mitchell in certain days?
Editor Rob
yes Mark he might at lunchtime be near 186
Canson said on 18/Nov/16
I agree with Rampage. Today maybe 6'1.5 out of bed 6'0.75 at his lowest. I can see him measuring 6'1 flat a couple hours awake like he did in 2008 and be 1/4 under later.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Nov/16
6ft2 straight out of bed in his 20's-30's is possible. Could have been in that strong 6ft1 zone.
Ray said on 15/Nov/16
He's easily a strong 6'1", and probably wakes up at around 6'2".

One of my 6'1 friend who got up a afternoon measurement at 6'1.5 as medical result i see which is measure in a digital scan machine in hospital and i suspect no way his more than 185.5cm max so i get out a measuring tape measure him in an early noon 1pm and he barely reach up 185.4cm which is right at 6'1 and he was even low as 185.1cm at night i measure him the same day. Maybe the case of obama 6'1.5 get up from.
S.J.H said on 4/Nov/16
Before i see 186cm tony parker look taller than obama i always thought so 186 187cm for obama and since parker is really 186cm then 185cm dead on obama. The 6'1.5 probably a morning an error or false measurement like a digital machine
Christian-196.2cm (6ft5.25) said on 1/Nov/16
Rob, who do you think is taller of the two: Obama or Cristiano Ronaldo? They both look legitimate 6ft1 guys to me.
Editor Rob
would certainly be interesting if they ever met, I think you might find both are 6ft 1 at their low marks.
Mark said on 26/Oct/16
I'm not one for the political world, but Obama is one of the few solid 6'1" people here. Nothing under that and would measure 186 cm in a good day.
HonestSlovene said on 22/Oct/16
He is pretty much bang on 6'1. A perfect example that a legit 6'1 in the west is solid tall and about 1 standard deviation above average in the west (5'10 or 177-178 cm is average).

Rob - Wouldn't his 2010 physical likely be in shoes, since his weigh-in was?

Based on that he would be 6'-6'0.25".
Editor Rob
the fact the first medical mentioned shoes...well, it could be argued that if he stood on a scale with shoes on, he may have then got measured in them.

but, I think he too often looks 6ft 1 for it to have been in shoes.
Aza said on 7/Oct/16
Really interested in how at his physical he gained half an inch. Guess it might have been early morning or the guy is really taking care of his posture. I will go with 6'1.25
Purple said on 5/Oct/16
I sometimes wonder if he has special shoes for certain occasions. Sometimes when officially photographed with other people, he seems to tilt forward a bit. Interestingly both him and his wife are usually impeccably turned out with cuts that favour their proportions. While they certainly have stylists and tailors that help them get the best out of a ceap dress, so much for shopping at cheaper stores, people who are concerned about their heigth should really take notice.
Borats Chicken said on 4/Oct/16

186cm in his 20's-30's is debatable. Some guys don't lose anything in their 50's. Obama and Bill Murray are two guys I can think of...

6'1.75" looks more and more probable, yet posters keep trying to downgrade him. He stands taller than all living former presidents consistently yet always is listed as shorter than presidents who have claimed 6'2" or more in the past.
Andrea said on 3/Sep/16

There's absolutely no way Chris Christie is 5' 11". Obama is a solid four inches taller. Can you do a page on him? I guess like 5' 8.5".
heelshealheight said on 7/Aug/16
Interestingly enough, Obama's daughter, Malia, is listed as 1.85m. Although she's not as tall as her father, Malia constitutes the example of what truly tall people look like. She hardly ever wears high heels (she almost always wears flats), and yet she continues to look almost as tall as her father. Tall women/men have both long legs and a relatively long torso, as in the case of Malia.

If I had to guess the 2008 measurement was barefoot (morning possibly) and it did say "roughly" 6'1". Steph curry also got a morning measurement at 6'2. Curry's may have been earlier and it looks maybe a 3/4" . That said: curry looks 6'1.5/ President Obama 6'0.75
Canson said on 6/Jul/16
@Tony: doubt 2" for curry. Maybe 1" at most. The President is more like 6'0.5-.75 (they said he's "roughly 6'1" when they measured him his first election) and Curry 6'1.5.

However on this site William you have at 6'2.75" could Obama really be 6'1.5" or could William be closer to 6'2.25"? Last question are you quoting all the heights on this site as their afternoon/close to lowest, or midway average which I find most people achieve by usually late morning?

Editor Rob
based on obama with some basketball players I think around 6ft 1 is ok, 186cm is very arguable for a brunch time measurement.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 28/Mar/16
It's probable that he got measured somewhere in 186-187cm at 10:00am and they just put down 6ft1½. I think Clinton and Bush Sr. were also measured 189cm in the early morning and that's why they may have got listed at 6ft2½. Same goes for G.W. Bush at 5ft11½.

@TJE,

I've seen more than once people saying that Ryan is shorter, but everything I've ever seen them in when they are right next to one another shows that if anything, Ryan is ever-so-slightly taller. Aside from the bad angle/perspective, they aren't even lined up next to each other exactly in that pic. Here they are from the same standing even closer together and from a much better angle:

We are the sages of height on this board. If Obama was measured at 9 a.m. this time to 3:30 p.m. when he took office. There is a possibility of the height being accurate. Also, if we look at his photos with Zach Quinto or Brandon Routh. Obama looks closer to 6'2" than 6'1". Many have said that our height fluctuates depending on the height methodology and the time of day.
Gary said on 13/Mar/16
That's odd, maybe he has a better posture than his previous campaigns/elections or whatever. Although, he seemed to lawyers have good posture ever since 2008. Can you actually reach puberty as age 50?!?!:()
SportsHeight said on 13/Mar/16
Rob, the 2010 physical exam where he first got measured at 73 inches was reported as having taken place in the morning. Surely this means the 73.5-inch measurement was with shoes on? Do you think this could mean that he's more in the 6'0.5" range barefoot (if the exam were taken in the middle of the day)?
Editor Rob
if it was the same stadiometer used for these measurements it's certainly interesting...

It's always possible he was a little over 6ft 1 for one measurement and had 73 inches noted, then in the other was almost 73.5 and had his height rounded up a little...

It would be strange to take a shoe height, but it's not impossible.
MD said on 11/Mar/16
Definitely different time of day, and it's realistic to me since 6'1" is clearly not a morning height.
AMeman said on 10/Mar/16
Just saw on Colbert on Late Show talking about Obama growing half an inch. according to just release medical records. He's now supposedly 6'1.5", having hit a mysterious growth spurt in his mid fifties. Maybe it's some weird secondary puberty and Obama really is an alien, just not the kind the birthers thought lol.

@hambubger
The more I analyze pictures of Obama, the more I see that he's not a legit 6'1" like most users here think he is. But I wouldn't put him at just 6'0" though. More like 6'0.5"

So here is my guess:

Obama=6'0.5"
Romney=6'1"
Donald Trump=6'0.75"-6'1" (peak height 6'2.25")
Johno said on 8/Mar/16
6'1 is most probable height, that description with "clothes/shoes" most likely relates to weight and i very much doubt he wear lifts. He is not that far off Prince William's height.
hambubger said on 7/Mar/16
Definitely a political bias to this guy's height. He's no more than 6'0" even and we have more references for him than just about everyone else. He was shorter than Romney who is 6'1", Romney being slightly shorter than Trump (check out the 2012 endorsement video) at 6'2".

As far as I can tell, Romney was taller than the president, if even just very marginally, so below 6'1" is kind of out of the question. I guess it depends on how much height you think he'd lost, but he struck me as nothing shorter than 6'1.25" - 6'1.5" in 2012.

Golden State Warriors visited White House and in the photo, the president definitely doesn't look 6'1" that he is listed here. I have always said that those measurements of Obama were in shoes, which puts him closer to 6". The people on Curry's page need look at the photo, since lot of them say that Curry is under his measurement. Rob, I would like to know your take on the photo and Obama's height. Thanks.

Rob, do you really believe that for Obama's White House physical they had him keep everything on for the weighing, and then said "Ok, now take your shoes off for the height measurement"? Seems a little strange to me. Do you really think that's what happened, or do you just think he looks a flat 6'1"?
Editor Rob
it does seem a little odd, but if he had shoes on then he's not much over 6ft barefoot, which I think seems too low from all we've seen of him.

Great story man, but not interested,lol.

I met him in person 7 years ago. He was a really tall, imposing guy. Standing at 6ft I had to really look up to him.In a crowd of dozens of people he was easily one of the tallest guys- only 2 of his bodyguards were taller. And not by much, an inch tops!
And I downgraded him BTW-he claims 191 cm while I think he's closer to 190 cm mark.
GP said on 16/Dec/15
All the photos you posted are not valid due to angles, footwear and the biggest of them all, just because people claim a height,it doesn't mean it's true.Looks like you didn't learn anything being on this site. Now if you told me that you have met any of these people then maybe I would believe your speculations or theories. The reason why I believe Parker's 186 claim is 1. NBA players round up their height and he clearly isn't doing that 2. I have seen him several times and he is around 6'1". Please stop trying to prove someone's height by posting random photos because you are not helping yourself, you're just showing that you have a perception of something and you just want to believe that by just looking at photos.
grizz said on 13/Dec/15

@Brad yes but solid 6'1 is 186 (185,5), not 185 cm. He should upgrade it. 6'1 is exactly 184.4 and I bet Obama is over flat 6'0.75 - 6'1, everybody would bet he is like 6'1.10

Click Here Guy on the right is our former PM Sanader in 2009 - I can guarantee you he is a legit 6'3 man and he only edged out Obama. I'm almost certain that Obama was 6'1.25 ("roughly 6'1˝ " ) back then. Nowadays he maybe dropped to flat 6'1, although I doubt it.

185 cm is spot on. He seems to be quite same in height as Fredrik Reinfeldt if you look at the photos of them together (I doubt Fredrik is 188 cm tall, more likely 186 cm).
GP said on 4/Dec/15
I think the 6'1" measurement was earlier in the day and the "roughly 6'1" is more accurate and he is 6'0.5", very less likely 6'0.75" since he was noticeably shorter than 186 Tony Parker.

I don't get that impression from him, at all. He regularly doesn't stand his full height in pictures, though he doesn't slouch. If a leader is significantly shorter, in fact, he often bends at the waist. It's actually kind of awkward, because most folks just slouch if they want to look shorter.

I think 6'1 is spot on, least in 2008 when he was on the campaign trail, he was 3 inches taller than me and he had the handshake down pat, alot of charisma in person...

I have just noticed that Obama is striving to always being the tallest when cameras are there. Just a way to remind who is the boss.

Seriously I would guess he may we are heel shoes.

Like written below either Obama is 2cm shorter than 188 cm trudeau,either he is 2cm upper.

Who is cheating and who care about his height?

Anyone have any good pictures of the meeting between the president and Canadian PM Justin Trudeau from a few days ago? I didn't see any clear shots, but the shots I did see they looked very similar, and I was surprised since everyone been saying that Trudeau is a solid 6'2".

Rob, do you think hed hit 187.5 out of bed ?
Editor Rob

Rob, how tall do you think Stephen Harper the former prime minster of Canada is? He is listed as 188 cm but seems a little shorter than Justin Trudeau who is also 188cm. But what puzzles me the most is that Harper sometimes seems the same height as Obama Click Here and sometimes shorter Click Here . Is it because of posture? To me Harper looks around 183-4 cm and Trudeau to be around 186-7 cm. Click Here What is your take Rob?
Editor Rob
harper at 188 seems too much, 185 range might be more reasonable to beleive with his best measurement.

Rob, if they have him listed as 6'1 in shoes then why do you have him listed here as 6'1? I thought that this website was the estimates of how much a celebrity would measure barefoot and not with shoes?

He must be at least 6' feet.
Editor Rob
I believe the weight measurement was shoes, but the height measurement would have been without. He looks too tall to be only a six footer, usually he looks an honest 6ft 1.

I can't believe that. Obama seems to be small. How tall he is

Ayy, Rob, Adam Savage is listed as 5'11, and Obama as 6'1. On this Youtube video it seems like Obama is at least 5 or 6 inches taller than Adam: Click Here

I assume it could be perspective, but I didn't think perspective would change the appearance that drastically. Perhaps Obama and Adam Savage need updates?
Editor Rob
perspective could add a bit, but adam could be at least adding about 1.5 inches.
