How tall is Barack Obama

Barack Obama's Height

6ft 1 (185.4 cm)

Barack Hussein Obama is an American politician, who from 2009 to 2017 served as the 44th President. One newspaper seemingly asked his press office his height, to which they said "roughly 6ft 1". In 2010 his Whitehouse medical had him listed as 6ft 1 and 179.9 pounds (in shoes/clothes). In 2016 though, his physical resulted in a height increase to 6ft 1.5, which may have been a measurement in shoes.
The First Lady, Michelle Obama stated her height in Women's Health (2009): "I'm 5' 11'".

Rob google has him at 6’2 what do you think about this?
Editor Rob
I don't believe he could measure that tall barefoot.

Could be creeping below it now - maybe 6ft0¾ worst case

You can say call me wrong but that doesn't change the fact you ignored the photo evidence I presented that backs up that Obama is at least near 6'1 with Trump.
Discussion definitely not closed.

We all have different opinions, but Obama is getting older, so I doubt that he is a legit 6’1 man.
Darksol64 said on 30/May/23
Knowing how tall legit 6'2 guys can look, he's a fair bit below that.

Weak 6'1 at best, probably in reality 6'0 3/8 to 5/8 actual measurement at a low.

I'm a strong 187 and I know I have to have at least a solid inch to 1.25 on him comparing his proportions to mine.

Trump is about 6’1. And Obama is 6’0 to 6’0.25 at most.

Yeah, I mean, of course he is.

My guess-

Morning - 1.87m or 6'1 and 2/3
late morning - 1.865m or 6'1.5

Midday or afternoon mark- 1.86m 6'1 and change..
Evening/night 6'1 flat or a tad under ..

He gets 1.86m from me or a tad over 6'1.

Trump's late morning or midday mark is about the same as Obama's lowest range- 6'1 or a tad under...

Hey rob, do u think the Obamas kids didn’t reach their height by potential? I only say that because the parents themselves are quite tall. Like both in the 90+ percentile of tallest people on the planet
Editor Rob
I think they're probably within expected range.

I see a fair proportion of females shorter than their Mother's

He can't be that small. A tone of people would need to be downgraded if that were the case. Obama has always been a flat 6'1 guy.

Calm down, honestly. I was simply respectfully disagreeing with you because I think 183 looks too low for Obama. Most people would agree. People are often going to call someone out on an estimate they think is too low. It's nothing personal, okay?

Doesn't make sense to me, he must be closer to 6'1.5"
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 10/Jan/23
Berta, I agree. More likely measured that in the morning barefoot than in shoes
Canson said on 6/Jan/23
@Berta: he may have been 6’1 1/8” at his low so maybe 6’1.25 at lunch in his prime. I doubt any taller though. And he looked just 6’1 with Kobe or Steph curry etc
berta said on 4/Jan/23
was obama really 6´1 flat? He always seemed closer to 186. I think thr 6´1 1/2 measurement is true. But something like 186,5 10 in the morning.
Jtm said on 3/Jan/23
Peter 180cm said on 23/Sep/22
183-184cm tops. He doesn't look anything taller next to Michael Jordan who is 194-195 and Tony Parker who claimed 186cm and looks taller. Common sense people,he's a solid 6ft.

i have to agree with this. i think the 6'1.5 measurement was with shoes on and he's actually 6'0.5. i wouldn't be surprise if he's actually 6'0 flat but for now i will go with 6'0.5.
Canson said on 29/Dec/22
@Ian: he may be 6’1 flat still and 6’1 1/8 may be his lunchtime. Possibility in his prime that he was 6’1 1/8” and 6’1.25 at lunch but not sure
Ian Momoshiki said on 29/Dec/22
@Canson I totally agree , but i guess he's still 6'1 or couple of mm below it, he always hit me as a strong 185 cm guy, till his early 50's, i think he can be closer to 186 cm flat, and now closer to 185, nontheless a legit 6'1 guy
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 28/Dec/22
Canson, it may well be as minimal as that
Ian Momoshiki said on 27/Dec/22
i don't know how people thought he's a weak 6'1 or even flat 6'0, no 6'0 would look as tall as him, he can edge some of the strong 6'1 with the right momentum, imo Obama is one of the best example of people whose height really match their claim and it's so legit

hes 6'1 and maybe still is, if he had a shrinkage, it's like 1/4 inch max
Jawilder said on 8/Dec/22
@Canson Yup, all of those are reasonable possibilities.
Canson said on 7/Dec/22
@Jawilder: yea he looks healthy and walks tall still. If he’s lost anything it’s negligible. Maybe he was 6’1 1/8 at his low and is 6’0 7/8 today but that’s still 6’1” or maybe he’s 6’0.75 but seeing him with Biden he looks 6’1 still
Jawilder said on 6/Dec/22
Agreed @rampage
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5/Dec/22
He still looks this today to be honest. Definitely not the time to give peak/current...
Malcolm Oliver said on 29/Nov/22
@Sandy Cowell
Glad we’re on the same page. A good family man with class who meant well (even if he did have his flaws). Not everyone is perfect.

Textbook 6’1.
Sandy Cowell said on 22/Nov/22
I think that Barack was possibly the best US president for a long time. His wife is nice as well, and she made a good cover girl for one of my magazines.

6ft1.
Philip550 said on 16/Nov/22
Rob, how tall do you think is the president of Croatia Zoran Milanovic? He has no official height listed anywhere, and no page on celebheights. He looked around she same height or a fraction shorter than Obama. My guess is around 6'1, unless he wears lifts or thick shoes, but definitely over 6 foot.
Editor Rob
Yeah, compared to Biden could be close to 6ft 1
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 11/Nov/22
Generally looked 6'1 when he was in power. I could buy 6'0.75 but no lower than that.
Vick said on 9/Oct/22
Rob,
Do you think a fraction over 6’1 is ok? He gives a strong 6’1 sighting
ZDA said on 30/Sep/22
Obama 183cm? Very unlikely he was probably 186cm peak now at 60 probably lost a fraction to 185cm. In 10 or 15 years later he will probably shrink to 183-184cm.

@Daniel,its all perspective obama looks taller here Click Here do think that obama is still around 6ft1 but i disgaree about parker being 6ft2 .he is at best 1/2 taller.
Daniel Morris said on 29/Aug/22
Definitely about 6'1" or an inch shorter than 6'2" Tony Parker

Rory said on 27/Jul/22
He could actually have measured around the same both times. He could have barefoot got 6ft 1 3/8ths at 11am say which was described as "roughly 6ft1" and then again next time measured 6ft1 3/8ths at 11am and was rounded to "6ft1.5". I don't believe for a second any of them were in shoes because that would make him a 6ft0.25-0.5 guy,when he always looked a very comfortable 6ft1. In shoes, early in the day he'd be nearer 2.5 than 1.5.
CDS said on 3/Jul/22
If the Whitehouse publicly stated he is 6'1"-6'1.5", that would indicate a barefoot measurement of 6'-6'0.5"; they're not going to downgrade him...lol
ZDA said on 21/Jun/22
Rob do you think Obama already lost some height now considering he is 60? Obama still has a perfect posture though.
Editor Rob
Nothing major like over half inch, but maybe a smaller fraction is possible.

Canson said on 7/Apr/22
He stood with Biden the other day and looked around 6’1 still. It could look up to 2” but more like 1.5”. I wonder if Biden’s measurement isn’t a low for him? Maybe 5’11 3/8 and Obama hovers near 6’1
Tall Sam said on 5/Apr/22
Obama has never claimed to be 6’2”, all the measurements came in around 6’1” and that’s what he looked when he met members of my family. If Obama was 5’11”, a lot of politicians and celebs would have to be downgraded in turn.
Canson said on 5/Apr/22
@6’4 Leprechaun: he’s taller than Biden on TV as we speak being Obama visited the White House today. They stood right next to each other and it’s a good or 1.5” between them. Worst case scenario is that Biden May be something like 5’11 3/8 at his afternoon height. Obama still looks 6’0.75-6’1”. He was a full 6’1” peak height. I can see some height loss today being possible because of his age and if you see his neck it looks as if it may be curved at times but nothing major. I’ll give him 6’0.75 today but not any lower
6'4" Leprechaun said on 4/Apr/22
Lol this guy ain't 6'2". A hair over 5'11". Bush Jr seemed 5'9.5" though shrunk to 5'8.5" when Obama was inaugurated on January 20, 2009.

Canson said on 3/Mar/22
@Ian: sorry that last comment was for you not Jawilder. Yea at lunchtime I think he was 6’1 1/8” at least. Meaning 6’1 flat at the end. But there is also the possibility of 1/8” more and being 6’1.25 lunchtime. I don’t rule that out. Howeve I think a strong 6’1 is too high for him meaning I can’t see 6’2 out of bed or 6’1.25 afternoon/evening just based on how he looked with Scottie Pippen and Jeff Sanders etc. I’d have said 6’1
Canson said on 3/Mar/22
@Jawilder: yea if I had to bet I’d say 6’1 3/4” to 6’1 7/8 out of bed and 6’1 to 6’1 1/8 afternoon or evening. I agree. Solid 6’1 guy though
Ian Omom said on 3/Mar/22
@Jawilder @Canson meaning that he could be like 6'1 1/8 in his prime? well i don't deny that, he look solid and has mantained a decent posture for years. Mr. Obama's 6'1
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Mar/22
Canson, that range peak isn't impossible, 188cm out of bed, 186cm afternoon/evening...
Canson said on 23/Feb/22
@Rampage: I’d say if he’s 6’2 out of bed he may come down to 6’1.25”. I can’t see someone his height losing quite the full inch.

@Jawilder: that’s where I had him
Jawilder said on 23/Feb/22
Legit 6’1 guy. 6’1.75” out of bed and 6’1 flat end of the day.
Canson said on 22/Feb/22
@Rampage: yea If that was a shoe measurement it was In flats and In the afternoon. I doubt that though as most medicals for presidents are in the morning. It’s possible like you said 6’1.5 within some time of him waking or 6’1.25 perhaps that was mistaken. I wonder if the 6’1.25” was really the first measurement in 2008 and 6’1.5 in 2016?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Feb/22
Canson, yeah those are possible figures. I think straight out he had the potential to hit 6ft2 and then close the day worst case at a flat 6ft1, not less though...

I just think if that 6ft1½ was a shoe measurement, surely it puts him below the 6ft1 mark?
Canson said on 20/Feb/22
@Rampage: I could see that being maybe an hour or two out of bed. I do think he was a peak 6’1 3/4 out of bed 6’1 flat by afternoon but I also don’t rule out 1/8” over the mark so that could mean 6’1 7/8” out of bed and 6’1 1/8 afternoon meaning 6’1.5” an hour out or maybe 2 if he’s that high
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/Feb/22
Canson, I think it's highly likely that Obama would measure 6ft1½ maybe 2-4 of hours out of bed...it carries some legitimacy...definitely not a shoe measurement. Should be 6ft2+ in shoes
Canson said on 18/Feb/22
I saw somewhere that he measured 6’1 1/4” too. Not sure if that’s the first measurement where it said “roughly” or if they transposed the 1/4” for 1/2” and listed him 6’1.5 instead

I have a few more photos of Obama with Erdogan from 2009: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
Today Erdogan at 68 is probably about 6 feet or 1/4 inch above but his peak height was clearly near 6ft 1, I would give him at least 6ft 0.75. Also Obama in my opinion was 6ft 1.25 and today is flat 6ft 1. Rob, I'm still convinced Erdogan needs a website and you should add him.

Agree with rampage, I don’t think he’s lost anything yet. He’s a very active guy with great posture. But a fraction lost is a possibility.
recapa said on 6/Nov/21
seemed like a super legit 6ft1 guy peak as in the 185.5-186 range he is probably 184.5-185 nowdays tho as he can appear as 184 guy sometimes as he he can appear as a 185 guy too.
berta said on 1/Nov/21
he have looked at worst 184,5 and at best pulled of 187. I think he is one of the most legit 6´1 guys on the site. I think kevin costners height. very close to 186 but just under. I dont think anyone more than rampage will agree.

Erdogan looks pretty much the same as Obama, maybe a hair shorter
Almost 180cm guy said on 1/Oct/21
Rob, I have another offer. Is there a chance that you will add the President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan to your website? He is known on the internet as 185 cm. Here are some of his photos with Obama from 2009 where Erdogan looked easy in the 184-5 cm range: Click Here Click Here Click Here
Obama could have been 6ft 1.25 of course. For this I am sending a photo of Erdogan next to Nicolas Sarkozy from 2008 in which Sarkozy was wearing big shoes: Click Here
Or maybe there is a greater chance that you will add Lukashenko? Finally, Lukashenko met Pope Francis in 2016 and Barack and Michelle Obama in 2015: Click Here
Rob, if you had to choose, would you rather add Lukashenko or Erdogan to your website? And do you see the chance that Erdogan's peak height could have been around 6ft 1, or a fraction below that?
Editor Rob
Erdogan has a chance of peak 6ft 1, he held up reasonably well with someone like Obama.

Whether either gets a page, I am not sure.

Hey rob I know Hague is 5’10, but do you think all there postures are fine and not much footwear advantages? Do you think Hague is more 179 cm?

Editor Rob
Hague claims 5ft 11, his old quote was referring to what he disliked about his appearance:

"I'm 5ft 11in and whenever I meet people they say, 'We thought you were small, and you're not.' So it's not my actual appearance, it's my perceived appearance."

I don't buy it, he looked nearer 5ft 10 with brad pitt too.

Canson said on 11/Sep/21
@Rampage: I think 187.5ish out of bed and 185.5ish afternoon. Pretty much a solid and textbook case of solid 6’1”. Still can look it on most occasions but I’ve seen some where he looks under by a hair

6'1 guy. I think he truly is an overrated president. he did alot of good but also alot of bad. he did well healthcare wise, but foreign policy/immigration/economy, he was lacking. still a nice guy though
5'10 Dude said on 15/Jul/21
Obama is no doubt a solid 6'1 and I believe he still is. He remains in excellent physical shape especially when you consider that he is almost 60 years old. He has good posture too.
Progking184 said on 28/Jun/21
If 6'1.5 is a shoe measurement that would mean he would look 6'0.5(6'0.25 at worst) to others. I think he is easily 6'1 barefoot and 6'2+ in shoes
David Guti?rrez Torres said on 16/Jun/21
The Ex President Barack Obama when he became the 44th President of the United States his real height was in 186 cm maybe now a days he lost 1 cm of his real height is 185 cm but is tall for a men for his age almost 60 years old.

I agree with rampage, rock solid 6’1 nothing more or less 👍
Philip550 said on 1/Jun/21
Wait... so he was actually measured in shoes at 6'1?.. That would mean he's 5'11 ½ barefoot. Am I missing something here? Because he does look like a 6'1 guy most of the time.

Editor Rob
Some President's have had their height taken in shoes, it explains why Nixon went from 5ft 10.5 in the Navy to having a magical 5ft 11.5 Presidential height.

With Obama I am not sure, I can believe 6ft 1 barefoot, but 1.5 barefoot, maybe earlier at 9-9.30am and rounded up from like 6ft 1.25 to 3/8ths range


Obama's a solid 6ft1 so that 6ft1½ listing carries some weight. If he was measured at 9:00a.m. he may well have got it. Certainly looks more respectable compared to Nixon's 5ft11½ (has to be a shoe claim, never looked like a guy who was near 6ft). JFK was taller than him and you have him at that height!
Eric W Tam said on 29/Apr/21
Goodness sake why is he 187 on Google now? First Morata got bumped to 190 when he was never even 189 but 187, now Barack is 187 instead of 185 smh.
Canson said on 11/Apr/21
@Pierre: I don’t necessarily know if it’s not the doctors who measure them either. George W Bush was supposedly measured 5’11.5 which I don’t believe. That’s probably a shoe height or maybe these guys are measured earlier in the day

@Viper: in his prime bit not sure about today.
Pierre said on 10/Apr/21
Height gauges are sometimes a bit generous too...In 2010 Barack was measured 73 inches and in 2016 measured 73.5 inches....I doubt Barack do a late growth in his 50s,generally it's more the opposite.To me actually compared to other celebrities he looks maybe sometimes 6"1' ,but not above.

Hello Rob,

What do you think happened on Obama measuring 6'1.5 in his last White House Medical?

Some say it was taken in the morning, but even at that I still struggle to see him hold 187 3 hours out of bed

obama always looks atleast 185 and often 186. only time he looked 184 was beside micharl jordan. its strange how short he looked beside him barely over 6 feet. bus beside tom hanks he did look almost 2 inches taller and hans is 182 these days at the very least. i think i actually will give obama 186. he was measured 187 in his most recent measurement in the whote house. probably a 9 o clock measurement but still. you are at most 1 cm taller at that time if you been up since 6-7 o clock.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Mar/21
Obama is very much like Bill Murray...held steady through his 50's and I think will still look around this mark in his 60's, max loss quarter of an inch...


I think it will be a good while before we see a peak listing here
Vincent Caleb said on 7/Mar/21
Obama was still a solid 6’1” in 2014. I think he lost some posture in his knees there. Parker is still a smidge taller.
Canson said on 3/Mar/21
@Junior: Ginobili is about 6’5 barefoot. Rob’s listing is the most I see for Parker. It’s probably the angle of the pic or maybe Obama had lost height by 2014. I still think 6’0.75 would be would Obama is now not less. Peak 6’1”. Obama tends to look shorter with basketball players such as Kobe and Steph Curry too
Eric Tam said on 2/Mar/21
Lol if Trump's 190, Obama is 192. Liked Trump better than Obama but at least Obama never felt the need to say he was 6'3 or 4.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Feb/21
Trump peak was likely 188-188.5cm zone
Celebheights 6'1.5" said on 10/Feb/21
@Canson,

There was a photo of Trump standing by a 6’2 1/8” measured Mark Sanchez, and he looked barely over six feet tall by him. In his peak, he’d probably measure around 6’2”-6’2 1/4”, given by how well he used to hold up by 6’3”-6’4” men.

Biden looks maybe 4 centimeters shorter than Obama in recent photos, so he’s probably around 5’11 1/2”. Given his age, he almost certainly shrunk a good inch at the very least. He used to appear fairly tall on camera a few decades ago.

As for Obama, I stand by him being 6’1” flat. He appeared to be this mark by Richard Sherman and Stephen Curry, two measured athletes, making them good rulers to measure people up by. He usually stands up well, which is why he can appear taller at times.
Canson said on 8/Feb/21
@Celebheights6’1.5: with Curry that was early morning. I would say the camera angle possibly played a factor or maybe he had lost the height by then. I definitely have President Obama at 6’1 peak and today that looks about right so I agree 100% with what you said. I doubt Obama was ever more than 6’1 flat (185-186 range) in his prime. Interestingly enough I’m not sure whether President Biden was a solid 6’ or 6’.5. I would say 6’0.25 peak and probably 5’11.5 today (afternoon height). He looked maybe 1” or 2cm shorter than Trump in the debates
Celebheights 6'1.5" said on 7/Feb/21
Jay-Z: 189.2 centimeters out of bed, and then he falls to 187 CM/6’1 5/8”.

Obama: 187.5 Centimeters out of bed in his peak, and then he dips to 185.4/6’1”. He’s now 6’0 3/4”.

I just can’t see Obama being 186 CM since he’s 1/2” of an inch shorter than a man who measures up at 187 CM. Let’s also remember that he’s an inch shorter than Stephen Curry was measured at 6’2” flat:

He was also no taller than Steve Nash, who is around 6’1”.

During his peak years, Obama measured at around a comfortable 6’1” in my eyes. He consistently appeared shorter than Jay-Z, who hovers around the 6’1 1/2” mark mid-day. Occasionally, the guy can appear 186 CM tall, but I think that has to do with him generally having a slight footwear advantage in some photos.

Thank you, Nik. Yes, Lisa is not the norm. My husband is 188,5 cm at 7 pm and 0.5 cm taller than Lisa (his twin sister at 7 pm) over the whole day he is 0.5 cm taller, but with the different shoes Lisa wears such as high heels, this small difference is of course gone. Which is funny, she resembles my husband which in turn annoys him a bit or maybe he is just proud of her, because she is a nice person with a lot of humor. Unfortunately, her appearance is deceptive and many think she is a little conceited which is not the case.
5'7.25 is also a good height, Nik.

Clinton was overall still a good president imo, despite some of his mistakes. I think he wouldn’t have been that much taller than Obama at peak, maybe 6’1.5”, or at most 1.75”. Bush sr. Was clearly taller. Trump edged him out I’m sure.

Gotta disagree Canson.

Bush and Obama back to back were not good, to put it mildly. I'll give Obama some credit for slowly getting us back on track after after Bush torpedoed the economy.

@Vincent: as far as being a good president, there’s never been a perfect one in my lifetime. I’m almost 39 years old so I’ve had 6 in my lifetime. Everyone has done something (in each persons perception) that has gone against some people’s beliefs or affected certain groups. I’m of the same. I try hard not to get into politics and you seem a lot like me where you call it raw and call it how you see it especially with the state this country is currently in. I’ve been more vocal of late (only in 2020) and really only about the current US occupant. There are facts and then some others who provide opinions (which you know exactly what I’m talking about) that aren’t true

Vincent Caleb said on 29/Nov/20
@RichardC:
Obama will eventually lose an inch, but at his current age it is unrealistic. The average person of his age will usually have lost a small fraction, perhaps none. Considering how well he takes care of his body, he is less likely to have lost a small fraction. He also never looked 6’2”.
RichardC said on 27/Nov/20
@Vincent Caleb That's not realistic. Humans lose height whether they like it nor not, even if you're fit. 6'2 peak, 6'1 current is reasonable.
Vincent Caleb said on 26/Nov/20
@Slim:
Obama is a very healthy 59 year old man. He hasn’t lost height. He maintained a healthy weight, good posture, and takes great care of himself, so there isn’t any reason he should have lost height. Looks the same 6’1” he always did.
Canson said on 26/Nov/20
@Vincent Caleb: well said and very true. However, you have to consider the sources. One of which (you know who I’m talking about) doesn’t even live in the US and it wouldn’t surprise me if they’ve never been to the US.

To reconstruct it again this day with Barack in summer 2018.
This week my husband was measured twice at 2pm and both times he was 6f 1.5in (187.0 cm) tall. Both times he was waken up at 6 am.
So he was 2cm taller than Barack back then, Barack was still 6ft 0.5in (185cm) barefoot tall at 2 p.m or slightly under it.
So Barack stands up at 6ft 1.25inch (186.5cm) today, so the peak height should or must be around 6f 1.5inch.

Peak height isn’t morning height though. It’s your peak afternoon height. I can’t see him under 6’1” afternoon height peak but maybe 6’0.75 when you all met him which makes sense

@Editor Rob: Barkley is nowhere near his listing compared to how Obama looks. His peak height 6’4 5/8 (6’4.75 may be ok for lunchtime or late morning) seems more believable and he looks closer to 6’4” with Kellogg now. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s only lost maybe 1/4 or 3/8 and is 6’4.25 now

See the point Here when he stands tall, that's a bigger difference, really can look near what he claimed, at least 6ft 7-8...he claimed "6'8 to be exact..But I tried to " play" like I was 6'11 back in the day"

concerning shoe size... I regularly wear at least 2 pairs of shoes that are marked "45" (although mine are EU 45, and US *11*, not 12...?) . They fit snugly. But I'm nowhere near 6'1"... except if I'm measured while wearing those shoes maybe.

I just mean shoe size doesn't necessarily mean anything. My brother is shorter than I am as well, but he wears a larger shoe and has larger hands. We're all different.

We saw Barrack Obama after the funeral in Bern of Kofi Anan his friend in Summer 2018.
He was then after that in the morning at 2 pm in the mountains near Leukerbad on a bearded vulture showing and there were a lot nature lovers.He was dressed decently in expensive brown shoes and the shoes looked like specially made for him. We did not recognize him at first but when he spoke we recognized his voice. Also he was logically still in a sad mood, so we did not speak to him either.but when I could not see the bearded vulture with the binoculars and I wanted to ask someone he approached me gently and explained where the bearded vulture was.And it was his typical calm and pleasant voice and the clear explanation, as he always discussed.
He was only slightly smaller than my husband who also had similarly high shoes like Barrack. My husband was measured at 7 o'clock in the morning slightly over 188cm tall about 2 months ago and this twice by his doctor on different days.
I am therefore sure that Barrack is still 186cm tall and is rather 186.5 cm tall.In his peak i think 6ft2inch is very possible.

Slim 6'1" said on 20/Sep/20
Rampage 187.5 would’ve been his morning height if not 188cm
185.5 before bed
I’d shake his hand
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Sep/20
I think he may very well have woken up at 6ft2, certainly peak years anyway and never dropped below 6ft1 evening.

Currently, he really doesn’t appear any different.

I feel like the 6'1 1/2 measurement was early morning.

Barack Obama

Donald Trump

Today: 184.3cm

He's a likeable guy but I always thought there was something a tad fake about his public persona, like in private he is a little less easy going than he lets on.
John Bricker said on 9/Sep/20
No doubt. Seems spot on
Canson said on 25/Aug/20
Agreed Rampage. Peak 187-187.5 out of bed 185.5 afternoon
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Aug/20
Slim, 185.5cm is perfect for Obama peak. But I think much earlier in the day he may very well have gotten 186cm range
Hulk.23 said on 19/Aug/20
Honest 6’1/185cm man.
Canson said on 17/Aug/20
@Christian: yea I don’t think he’s lost a lot either. The pics with Kobe when the Lakers visited the White House led some to believe he may have been under 6’1” but I’m not so sure if he really was that far under either. I can believe his peak height coming in at 6’1” flat and current could be something like 6’0 3/4-7/8. Kobe May have been favored with him. Then there was the pic with Steph Curry

Looks a decent 6.1ft

Rob, in a doctor’s letter from the 2012 election, Mitt Romney was listed at 73.5 inches. Also, I met him 3 years ago (he was about age 70), and I’d give him between 6ft 0.5 to 6ft 1.
Editor Rob
The doctor said he was younger than his age too if I recall.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 14/Aug/20
I don't think he deserves a peak/current listing yet. He may have lost 1/8" at most, but that's not anything nearly significant.

Hello Rob.
How tall do you you think a youthful Obama would measure at night?
Editor Rob
In his 30's he may not have fallen under 6ft 1 much at all really.
Slim 6'1" said on 9/Aug/20
rampage, i disagree, look at obama next to 5'11" range dicaprio and donald trump whos 184cm today

185-185.5cm peak no 186-187 thats a bit too high
Karin Marie said on 8/Aug/20
6'4 1/2" leperchaun, Lol
You must be a Trump supporter.
Barack Obama is definitely 6'1".
He & Michelle are both very tall.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Aug/20
Slim 6’1”, he could look 186-187cm range at times so it’s not complete fantasy. Earlier half of the day he may very well have measured in that zone.
Slim 6'1" said on 5/Aug/20
186+ is fantasy but so is 184 sub

🗽🎁🎂🎊 Happy Birthday Barack 🎊🎂🎁🗽

Many Happy Returns to Barack Obama, who is today celebrating his 59th Birthday!

6ft1 😁👍

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 23/Jul/20
I think he’s worthy of a page. 2 time presidential candidate
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 21/Jul/20
Rob, how tall do you think Mitt Romney is and will he get a page at some point?


I think 6ft2 range peak and a bit under it today. Edged out Obama though so I reckon he’d still clear 6ft1
Editor Rob
6ft 1 flat today maybe, 6ft 1.5-2 peak, but I don't know if he'll get a page. Maybe if I see him mentioning his height.
Alir?za said on 16/Jul/20
Erdogan is listed 6 ft but they look pretty same height with obama

Peak was a solid 6'1.25 tbh.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 12/Jun/20
Click Here I would have believe Obama was once 6'1 1/4 for awhile.
cmillz said on 4/Jun/20
Peak was a solid 6’1, anyhow.
Gibin said on 2/Jun/20
6ft1 is spot on!
Paul Feasal said on 24/May/20
I personally think he is close to 6’2. He is definitely at least 6’1 barefoot. To me I did not see that much of a difference in height between him and Trump. I think they are close to the same height. Though I think Trump was taller when he was younger. Trump’s next shows he is slouching in each picture or has lost an inch do to the circuit urge of his neck and spine.
Richard Griesel said on 8/May/20
Exactly 6 foot, no way he's 6'1.
Nik said on 8/May/20
He could be Miranda Hart's height twin!
5.9 legit guy said on 5/May/20
He was a very strong 186.5cm guy in his prime.N
ow he measures around 185cm (I think 185.5 in the morning) but he is the definition of a tall,strong 6ft1 guy. Long legs,long arms and big shoe size. Surely taller than Trump. There is no way Obama goes under 6ft1, even at evening
5'11 estimates are absolutely ridiculous,probably made by Trump's fans
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 3/May/20
@leprechaun
Obama might be leaning towards a weaker 6'1" than a solid one, but 5'11" is an absolute joke.
6'4 1/2" leperchaun said on 2/May/20
Weakest 6'1" I've seen and CNN would list Obama at 6'2". Biden was measured at 5'11", so 5'11" for Obama.
