Dr. Mehmet Oz's Height
5ft 11 ½ (181.6 cm)
Peak height was 6ft ½ in (184.2 cm)
American physician and TV personality. The 58-year old said in The Charlotte Observer: "Well, I used to be 6-1-1/2. I think I'm barely 6 now. I keep shrinking. ... The data's shocking. You lose half an inch of height per decade on average ... once you get to 40. So I'm probably an inch and a half shorter than I was when I was playing football."

Losing a half inch every decade after 40 isn't really untrue
Some may lose 1.5 by 70s-80 (.5 in 50s , .5 in 60s and .5 in 70s) but I agree it's not the norm
Arnold Schwarzenegger lost about 2 inches
Fetterman and Oz look about 6.5 inch difference maybe 7
Assuming fetterman is probably 6'7 max.

"But he's a doctor!!!!"
He quit being a doctor over 25 years ago. Since then he's been nothing more than a snake oil salesman and professional TV quack. Those rubbish dietary fads he pushed on Oprah were either medically discredited or landed people in hospital

Not fairing too badly with Fetterman. That's roughly what 6ft should look like opposite 6ft8. I think Oz can still make 5ft11¾ today at least. Peak is debatable, could he have been 6ft1? His claim about losing half an inch per decade after 40 is nonsense though

Rob, maybe 5ft11¾ now?
That I think qualifies as 'barely 6ft'.

Editor Robwhen I last looked at him, I felt he was struggling to look 6ft, 5ft 11.5 to 11.75 maybe 1-2 years ago last I looked.

No more than 180cm now, with 173cm Mark Wahlberg he looks only 5 to 7 cm taller. His 6ft1 or 6ft2 peak height in football was most likely over measured as well. Peak 183 or 184cm now 180cm max

Unless he's had an injury of sorts I'm not buying 1-2in loss
I think you could argue 6ft1 peak (and may very well have measured his claim mid morning) and today 6ft flat

My uncle hit 72 now and still holding a flat 6'2 never lost more than 1/4 at most. Lost half inch in every decade is def inaccurate data.

men losing half an inch per decade after 40 isn’t accurate either.

Only time this guy possibly hit 6ft1½ is after a good nights rest
For his peak height out of bed is still a struggle without a hair touching its head. 6'1.25" is more likely since his peak is more like 6'0.5".

But then again...he is a qualified physician who probably has more knowledge than any of us combined so who actually knows

Editor RobI wonder if he did a shoe measurement. Barefoot at 6ft 1.5 just seems awfully tall for him.

Editor RobIt would be more believable than 6ft 1.5....

I mean 6'0 1/2 peak is possible.

I thought he still look at least 5'11.75" than just 5'11.5"? 6'0 1/2 is possible close.

I’m still leaning towards a 6ft peak but he’s probably only lost .5” really.

Editor RobMaybe he could have measured 6ft 1.5 in shoes. Wouldn't be unbelievable, but barefoot I am not sure.
is he the kind of guy who would BS about height?

Nice! As I said, I can't say anything about a possible peak (even though his 6'1.5 claim certainly seems a lot!!!), but 5'11.5 is probably the absolute most I'd guess him at today, and in fact I struggle to see him even at that mark with Boris (back in 2016), if Boris is only 6'4 flat: Click Here

Editor RobFor a guy of 58, 1.5-1.75 inches would seem an extraordinary amount of loss.
You'd expect that from a wrestler!
