Rob can you make a page for a Canadian bodybuilder Chris Bumstead, he is well known and has a few videos where he is measured taller than his claim and what people guess him. Also you can add some mma Pride legends like Mirko cro-cop Filipovic and Fedor Emalianenko, they also have false heights on web.

@Rob
I would prefer quieter shopping hours too, I live with parents.
I’m not a big fan of queues and kids running around the shops.
And …You live in a quite quiet town, maybe settled down town?

Editor Rob
Our town has a population of around 76,000. I don't plan to live here when I'm old, I think another 10 years or so and we'll look at retiring somewhere else.

Hi Rob, i hope you're doing well.
I just wanted to ask a quick question.Let's say a very famous celebrity claims to be 184.35 cm tall, and they measured themselves late in the day(7:46 PM), after having been awake since 7:10 AM. Based on how you evaluate heights, how tall would you list someone who measured 184.35 cm at that time of the day? Would you round them to 6'0.5", 6'0.25", or list them as a weak 6'1"?
Thanks for your time and all the work you do!

Editor Rob
It would be between 6ft 1/2 and 3/4 for their listing. You rarely see a celebrity claiming anything specific like 184.35 though.
James B 172cm said on 29/May/25
Rob on the UK is it rare for legit 6'4 guys to claim 6ft5?

Editor Rob
I don't know how rare it is, but you will find men of all heights can embellish the truth or just be claiming a height in footwear (and not think anything of it).
Tangman said on 28/May/25
Rob, in your honest opinion, what do you think is the actually average height for a male in the US? wiki says 5'9 but i wonder if it would be shorter considering most measurements are in the morning

Editor Rob
I don't live there, but from the studies, I do think it's still holding around 5ft 9.

Hey Rob. Would you mind adding the MMA fighter Tom Aspinall to your page sometime? Also how tall do you think he is? I think 6'3.75-6'4 maybe..

He might be close to his claim.

@Rob
Good old routine , I kinda have a routine myself but I don’t schedule it. You go to the shops at the quietest time of the day. Is your town busy during the day? Out of curiosity.

Editor Rob
Usually aim for nearer 9 to 10 range as it's reasonably quiet and I pretty much am bargain hunting. I now closer to the big shopping centre in my town, so it's a 5 minute walk.

@Rob,
How tall do you think the main cast of the new The Librarians series are? The men look averagish-to-short, and the women look above average, to me.

Bluey Robinson looks rather short. Here he is with Liam Payne:

And Labrinth:

Though on the show, he can almost come off as average height. Which means that that is probably the max for Callum McGowan.

Yeah, I can agree with 5'9 being the average, maybe 5'9.25. But at my workplace everybody is tall AF for some reason so I don't even feel tall there. We have two women who are 6' and a bunch of 6'2-6'4 guys.
If I walk around some place like a fairground, mall or an airport I feel comfortably above average like 85 percentile.
Gav16 said on 26/May/25
Hey Rob, I'm just curious, has one (or more?) of the celebrities you've listed ever contacted you, or tried to because of their listing on here?

Editor Rob
In the distant past a few smaller names did, but the only person I think who seemed upset with a guess was the wife of a shorter actor who insisted he was a certain height.
A few might have left a comment on the site before.

What would you say British rapper Central Cee height is? Online it is listed as anything between 5’6 to 6 feet. Will be good to have your verdict on it

Editor Rob
Sub 6ft for sure and rule out as low as 5ft 6-8. I would say average range, but that's on a brief look.
Canson said on 26/May/25
@Editor Rob: another example is Julius Randle. He was listed 6’9 when he came into the league and dropped to 6’8 in 2019 when they remeasured. He was listed 6’8 from 19 until 24 when he was traded to Minnesota. He measured 6’7.75 at combine and now that he was traded to Minnesota from New York they list hjm at 6’9 again. Randle next to Kobe was at most 3” taller than him so he definitely didn’t grow between last yr and this yr at 30 something. What it is is that the nba is relaxed on the measurements. There is no consistency. Some teams list with shoes on. Look at Bradley Beal and Devin booker snd KD
Kd measured 6’9.5 with the nets and was listed 6’10 through his first season in phoenix. When Monty Williams left and Vogel came as coach they bumped him to 6’11”
Bradley Beal was listed 6’3 in 2019 and admitted he’s that. He was bumped to 6’4 at some point
Booker measured 6’4.5 and was listed 6’5 in 2019. He’s back up to 6’6 now
Shai is lanky so he looks taller than he is at times. He is no taller than Jalen Williams tho at 6’4.5”
Canson said on 26/May/25
@Editor Rob: he didn’t grow. He called Jalen Williams who measured the same as he did 6’4”. He said “our height”. shai looks same physically as Michael Jordan did just a lot thinner. In 2019 when they remeasurrd everyone some players didn’t change. Look at harden and Westbrook and Lebron got taller. Shai looks what he measured as that is likely near a low for him. With Williams and SGA it is touch and go. At times SGA can look taller but Williams does in other pics

@Mike 190
Talking about Italy, I'm quite sure that the average height of the young generation (18-25 y.o) is no more than 5 ft9.5. If the average was over 5ft 10, we should have had more guys who are 6 ft and taller than 5ft8 and under. But it's the opposite: young men who are 5ft8 and shorter are still MORE common than 6 footers. How many young guys are 6ft and taller? I'd say one out of five, and I'm being generous. How many are 5 ft8 and shorter? From what I've seen I'd bet they are very close to 30th percentile. At 5 ft7 (170 cm afternoon height) I still find that I'm around 20th percentile when I'm among young crowds (One out of five is shorter than me). And I'm talking about NORTH Italy, where the population is taller

Fun question, both are somewhat famous people actually. Tallest male that I've ever seen was Olivier Rioux in an airport just a few months ago who claims 7ft 9 in shoes. I think he's somewhere between 7ft 6 and 7ft 7 barefoot. Tallest female was Ekaterinia Lisina in a hotel elevator a few years ago, and she's a weak 6ft 9 as listed.
If I go to the biggest mall in my city and walk around all day I will normally see at least one woman over 190cm and man over 205cm.

@c-mo 176-177cm
Just curious what part of the world do you live? In my country the average young male is ~179cm (barefoot measured, not self reported).
Breaking down the statistics roughly:
-3SD (0.2 Percentile): 157cm / 5'1.75"
-2SD (2.3 Percentile): 164cm / 5'4.5"
-1SD (15.9 Percentile): 172cm / 5'7.75"
0SD (50.0 Percentile): 179cm / 5'10.5"
+1SD (84.1 Percentile): 186cm / 6'1.25"
+2SD (97.7 Percentile): 194cm / 6'4.5"
+3SD (99.8 Percentile): 201cm / 6'7"
In my view, nothing less than +1SD can be considered "tall", therefore it cannot be considered optimal. Like you, I agree anything beyond +3SD is too much, however it's still better than being -1SD or shorter. As a man in his 20s, +1SD seems to be the average height in nightclubs. I encounter more men in the +2SD range at parties, than men in the -1SD range. Of course this is not representative of the true average, given the fact that taller men tend to go out more because they have a much higher chance of sucess than their shorter counterparts. But still, this shows just how important height is in this day and age.
I have a rock solid 6'6" / 200cm friend (claims 6'8"), who is skinny fat, with an average face, is not particularily confident or outgoing, yet when we go clubbing he gets approached by women regularily just based off his height alone. He sticks out and women are drawn to him immediately, whereas I completely blend in the crowd and go unnoticed at 6'2".
So all in all I think +1SD - +3SD is the ideal zone to be for your respective country, with +2SD probably being the sweetspot. Less than +1SD is not tall, and more than +3SD is too tall.

@LB
That's a lot of height to lose so quickly. I'm only 160lbs and about 185.7cm immediately out of bed. After 2 hours being awake I'm usually 184.5cm. If I'm working and on my feet all day I can hit my normal low of 183.5cm after about 7 hours. 183.2cm I can sometimes hit at an extreme low if it's an especially strenuous day. If I'm just lounging around the house on my day off I can still hold the full 184cm at bedtime.
Purely anecdotal, but my dad used to be 6' in his youth and nowadays at age 62 looks like he's about 5'9. He is 300lbs. Not sure if he's actually lost 3 inches of height or if it is partly due to bad posture because of his weight. Either way, I'm guessing being overweight is probably not great for height loss because of the extra stress on the spine.
viper said on 25/May/25
adrianposter said on 25/May/25
I feel like nowadays, 5’9 isn’t really the “average” height anymore especially among young men. I’d say it skews more towards 5’10-5’11 now.
It's definitely the opposite from what I see whenever I go to University of Maryland sporting events. I see more 5-5-5-6 white students than ever.
Average looks 5-9 to me
Kevin said on 25/May/25
@c-mo
Not often in the US. On my last trip to Las Vegas I saw only one guy who looked 6'7 or 6'8. He wasn't skinny. Medium build and well proportioned, in fact. I also saw two women taller than me who I would've guessed to be 6'1-6'1.5 and 6'3 respectively. Obviously Las Vegas is a crowded tourist destination and I spent several days there walking around the strip, so I think it's safe to say a genuine 6'7+ is pretty rare.

@Paul NS (6ft 0.5)
I wouldn't be surprised if Letterman is down to 6ft flat by now. If so, Clark's looking at most 5ft 10 there. I think anywhere in the 5ft9-10 zone is where she'd end up, and that range would also track with how she stacks up next to Angel Reese (6ft 3), for instance.
LB said on 24/May/25
How quickly does everyone here fall to their low height?
Measuring recently straight out of bed I hit 186-186.2cm but within a couple of hours I’m already down to 183.5, and that’s where I usually end the day give or take a few mm. Do you think being over 300lbs and having a few posture issues (hyperlordosis) is contributing to how rapidly I hit my low?
c-mo 176-177cm said on 24/May/25
today there was a guy in the supermarket who was above 200cm . probably like 205cm . who knows maybe even a little more like 209 - 210 but he was for sure not below 200cm . my guess is 205cm . he was VERY VERY tall
and he was very slim and had a narrow build . it really didnt look good at all . he looked odd
how often do you see men above 200cm ? here in germany it is not all that rare to see them to be honest . not long ago there was another guy i saw in another supermarket who was around 203cm or so too
such very tall heights make you stand out a little . like it is like "dude where the f*** is your head"
as if their head is so much up in the sky that they are in a different place from other people lol

Greetings again, Rob!
To add to Tenoch Huerta (Mejía), someone now edited his height on IMDb to now display as 6’ flat.
Also, looking back at him and Simu Liu’s pics, he is actually noticeably taller than him, and is even slouching a bit to try to close that distance!
I’d say somewhere between 5’11 and 6’0 would fit Tenoch, where exactly in that range? I honestly cannot tell haha.
Thanks again!
Bo Chow said on 21/May/25
Greetings, Rob!
Any chance you could take a look at and add Tenoch Huerta (Mejía)?
Namor from the MCU and one of the lead actors in Narcos: Mexico (and has a prolific career in Mexican cinema and television in general)
Someone on IMDb has been editing his height between 5’7.75, 5’9 flat, and 5’10.75, with that last listing being the most likely.
There are several pictures out there of him standing next to 5’10.5 Simu Liu both in equal footwear, and Simu standing higher on an uneven runway, and Tenoch still manages to edge him out by an iota.
Thank you!

Editor Rob
He is taller than Simu, who really could be nearer 5ft 10-10.25 himself. 180 seems believable enough.

Hello sir,
Just wondering, what time of day do you believe is most accurate to measure your height for comparison to the average? Late morning, afternoon, evening? If I'm not wrong, I'm assuming it's from clinical data, so probably the range of afternoon about when most get their appointments?

Tallishguy said on 17/May/25
Hello Rob, nice to see you again.
I measured myself today with a can method after being awake for 15 hours straight at 183.7- 183.8cm. I had active day, went to grocery shopping immediately after i woke up, did the housework and spent several hours sitting and studying for exams. At night i went outside for training and after that a couple of hours more od sitting. So I was either sitting or on my feet the whole day.
Recently I had a medical check-up where the nurse measured me at 185.3cm using a stadiometer, it was noon and i woke up at 9.
Im wondering what would be my listing on this site, and what to claim?
People often guess me taller than 185cm, but thats because i have long legs, small head and good physique. I walk at around 85-86kg.

Editor Rob
It might be fair to give a 6ft 3/4 listing based on what you've said in the past and just now.

you are 188-188.3cm out of bed and 186.5 - 186.6cm after being 7 hours awake and having trained . i would claim 187cm if i were you
@Grayloth
if 190cm is seen as ideal by women then they wont suddenly find a 195cm too tall and undatable . 5cm is not enough to make such a difference . 195cm is a good height and women like that height on men
c-mo 176-177cm said on 16/May/25
@Mike190
bro it was me who answered you not jamss b . he just quoted me
i will answer you now :
- "Yes, that's because the there are a significantly greater number of men within that height range than over 185cm."
surely that is one factor but i am saying that regardless of that if you took 500 random men for example who are in the 5'9 - 6'0 range and compared them to 500 random men who are between 6'2 - 6'5 or higher ...you will find a lot more good looking guys in the 5'9 - 6'0 range . i would bet money on it . but we dont need to discuss this further because it seems we wont agree on it :) thats okay .
- "Yes, but we are discussing optimal height controlling for all variables like proportions. I have seen men over 200cm that have better proportions than men who are 180cm. They are genetic outliers for sure, but you can have optimal proportions at any height."
many men above 185cm simply dont have good proportions . especially above 193cm . sure there are some taller men who do ....but many simply dont . and even if for example a 200cm man has good proportions his height would still be not optimal . it would be best if he was 184cm for example instead of 200cm . but 200cm is still a decent height especially if you do happen to have good proportions . for me anything up to 193cm is good and up to 203cm is decent . above 203cm becomes very excessive . but even above 203cm is better than being short unless you suffer from an illness . if i was very tall i would definitely try to make a career in basketball or at least volleyball .
but either way above 185cm is not perfect anymore in my eyes . because it is vertically too high / stretched . the glass is full at 6'1 as i said . my best friend is 188-189cm btw. so i know how a solid 6'2 looks among people etc. . it is definitely a good height but it is a few cm too much to be optimal . even only the fact that when we are clubbing that he has to bend down when he talks to people especially women is one reason why it is not optimal . i often think that the midway between my friends height and mine would be optimal . which would be about 182 - 183cm . above average but not too much . something around 182 - 185cm at night with good proportions and a mesomorphic build is the sweet spot
but hey no one can choose their height lol . it is how it is
- "Do you seriously think that men like Derek Theler or Clint Walker have/had trouble with women because they are "too tall" and have "bad facial harmony"?"
no of course not . they are good looking and have decent proportions and are very tall . very good to attract women . and they have good heights . i am not saying that being above 185 is bad . i am only saying that it is not perfect

I don't know how they get those measurements, but they're not reliable at all. There's a good research about the average height of young men (19 y.o.) living in italian urban areas between 1990 and 2020. I quote:
"the average height of young men living in Urban areas fluctuated over the last three decades [...] The lowest average height was observed in 2008 and 2009 with 173.74 cm. In 2020, the average height recorded was 175.36 cm".

I hope someone can help me with this. I measure always always 171,5 cm in the morning (5'7.5) but this is usually not with a good night sleep, meaning I probably did wake up in the middle of the night or I woke up and stayed in bed for 10+ minutes on my phone switching positions etc. With good night sleep 8+ hours I am peak 5'8. By the end of the day after like an 8 hours shift at work I am 5'6 lowest and when I am home all day I am around 5'6.25 but if I go and sit on my couch for a bit or in my chair and measure again I am 5'6.5. I quickly lose my morning height.
For context, I do not have any diagnosed back issues. The only issue I have which is something I want to confirm so this isn't a coping mechanism for my height fluctuation and maybe something I ned to contact my GP for is. I weight 92,5 kg. My body fat percentage is somewhat around 35-40% MINIMUM, if not way beyond. I lack back muscle so I don't really have a lot of muscle mass to support my back. I think this might ultimately be the cause of my excessive height compression. I think when I did weight 85 kg 3 months ago or so I was when at home measuring at 5'7 after being on the chair or sofa for a bit and lowest 5'6 or a bit above that after work. I since than gained weight up to 90 kg, still didn't experience much more height fluctuation, got to like a bit under 5'6.5 after work, but than 2 weeks ago I gained up to 98 kg and lost all that weight back to 92 kg and since that I am experiencing the new height fluctuation which is 5'6 lowest after work and 5'6.25 when being stood up for some time.
please help me out and let me solve whether this is an issue being caused by excess weight with mostly fat and low muscle ratio.

of course bro . there are good looking guys of almost every height . i would even say that men between 5'4 and 5'7 (the height range you are asking about) look better facially on average than men who are 6'2+ . again this is MY observation and opinion . but of course there are also enough good looking men who are 6'2+ lol . dont get me wrong. but in my experience best looking men are between 5'8 to 6'1 if you want a very wide range and more so 5'9 - 6'0 as i said
by the way : a celeb example of a good looking guy who is in the 5'4 - 5'7 range would be dave franco for example

hey my friend what do you think about the average height stats of north italy and south italy listed on wikipedia ? apperently they are measured averages of 18 - 21 year olds :
north italy : 179.4cm measured in 2018
south italy : 177.4cm measured in 2018
it is higher than what you feel is the average height in italy

I am simply paraphrasing the dating app studies that I read, not my personal opinion. I also never said that you have to be that tall to be successful with women, of course you can get attention even under 170cm. In my secondary school one of the guys who got the most girls was only 168cm, but he had a very attractive face, he was an extremely fit athlete, and most importantly he was confident and outgoing.
"and most dudes i have known in my life who are sucessful with women have been between 5'9 and 6'1"
Yes, that's because the there are a significantly greater number of men within that height range than over 185cm.
"in my experience / observation many men taller than around 6'0 - 6'1 have either bad body proportions or bad facial harmony etc."
Yes, but we are discussing optimal height controlling for all variables like proportions. I have seen men over 200cm that have better proportions than men who are 180cm. They are genetic outliers for sure, but you can have optimal proportions at any height.
Do you seriously think that men like Derek Theler or Clint Walker have/had trouble with women because they are "too tall" and have "bad facial harmony"?

@Gianni 5' 7
Average young male (born 2000) in Italy as a whole is 174-175cm from what I've read so you're correct. However there is a large variance between the north and the south, with the average being above 180cm in Friuli Venezia Giulia and below 170cm in Sardinia.
Grayloth said on 15/May/25
I agree with James. 6’10? That is like one in a million.
I come from Sweden and here in Scandinavia around 190 cm is seen as ideal. So 6’2-6’4. 6’5 or 195 cm is seen as too tall from the girls I have asked.
Gianni 5' 7 said on 15/May/25
I don't know where you all live, but at least here in Italy there is no way that average height is somewhere near 5 ft10. I'm 5ft7, not even a solid one (5 ft 7.5 First thing in the morning and 5 ft 6.75 at night). I've been interested in height for years and I can guarantee that a REAL 170 cm guy doesn't feel short most of the time here. Low average, but not short. Considering the male population of the country, I'd Say that 5 ft7 is around 30 percentile. Obviously, Italy is one of the eldest country in the world. With so many men over 70 y.o., height loss becomes a factor. Average height is no more than 5 ft 8.5, maybe a fraction over that here in the North and a fraction under in the South. I start feeling short only when I'm on a crowd of young guys, the average height of young men being about 176 cm (that's my guess).
Anyway, I've noticed that when I claim 170 cm in public people tend to be surprised. "Wow, you doesn't seem so short!" or "No way you're THAT short". That's their reaction, as if 5ft7 was a super short height.
Truth Is that I know plenty of guys among 175 and 177 cm and 95% of them claim 180 cm. Moreover, almost all the 165-167 cm guys that I know claim 170 or even 172 cm. This height inflation process bring people to consider 180 a perfectly average height. It's not, at least in Italy a real 180 cm man is still quite tall (and he obviously claims 185 cm)

sorry but thats BS . i am 39 years old and am 176-177cm (most people guess my height to be around 180cm btw) and have never ever struggled to get attention from women since i was a teenager . getting checked out , getting phone numbers , getting dates etc. . zero problems. and in my experience as i said in my post below when you hit a solid 5'8 it is mostly about facial attractiveness (facial attractiveness is the most important anyway ) and body frame like proportions and wide shoulders etc. from there and you can not blame your height anymore if you have trouble attracting women . even if being taller than solid 5'8 would be better .
and most dudes i have known in my life who are sucessful with women have been between 5'9 and 6'1 AND most guys who i have seen and known who have good facial aesthetics and good body proportions are also around 5'8 / 5'8 to 6'0 . in my experience / observation many men taller than around 6'0 - 6'1 have either bad body proportions or bad facial harmony etc. . i hope this doesnt offend anyone but thats what i have observed . if you take 500 men between 5'9 and 6'0 and compare them to 500 men who are 6'2 - 6'5 for example you will find way more attractive looking guys in the 5'9 - 6'0 range . i am sure about it . the best looking male celebrities are also between 5'9 and 6'1 with especially around 5'11 having many attractive ones . just to name a few : George Clooney , Orlando Bloom , Leonardo Dicaprio , Brad Pitt , Jamie Dornan , Henry Cavill etc. etc. etc.
the study you are talking about is nonsense . most women ideally if they could choose the height of their men would choose a man who is between 5'11 and 6'2 with a good amount of women also liking 6'3 - 6'5 but the most attractive range for women is 180 - 188cm . but obviously with good proportions and good face . they would rather take a good looking 175cm for example than an unattractive 188cm . and many women will also like the heights of 5'8 - 5'10 especially 5'10 . after 5'8 it is mostly about face and frame as i said
sure when you are 6'5 and above there will be also many women who will like that especially women with a height fetish . but it is not ideal . especially above 6'8 is more niche appeal
and you must also not forget height inflation . when women see a solid 6'1 dude many of them will think he is 6'3 for example .
What about guys who are 5’4-5’7? Can they have good facial proportions?

@ c-mo 176-177 cm
For what is worth, I perfectly agree with you. The idea that women only want super tall men is false and ridicolous. Generally speaking, irl women prefer men taller then them. Height can be an issue for men who are between 5'6 and 5'8, but I think that it's under the 5 ft5 mark that you struggle to make up your lack of height with facial attractivness and body frame. Under 5 ft5 a good chunk of women are tall as you or taller, so they may refuse you anyway. That being said, I know several short short men (160-165 range) Who have a certain success with women

Continuing on with the ideal height discussion, the vast majority of male models are listed at 183-192cm. Accounting for the outliers who inflate or deflate their heights to fit the standards the absolute max range for legit barefoot afternoon height in high fashion is 180-195cm. Generally those under 185cm and over 191cm are already considered sub-optimal. This is why you see so many 6ft models (such as O'Pry) listed at 6'1", and 6ft4 models (such as Gao) listed at 6'2.5" or 6'3". The sweetspot is exactly 186cm-188cm with 6'2" (187.96cm) being widely considered the prototypical model height.
Now why would male model heights have anything to do with the ideal height for general life? Model agencies design their clothes to fit men who are in the 6'1-3" range for a good reason: they have the best aesthetic look. Men in this range are certainly tall, but not gawky awkward tall. 6ft1-3 men also generally have an inseam of no more than 34", and shoe size no more than 13US which makes shopping very convenient.
If you want to discuss the optimal height for dating, however, it is a completely different story. The recent studies that I've read all point to the fact that most women in the west want very very tall men: with an optimal range of 195-200cm or specifically 6'6" (198cm) being the most desirable height. The "acceptable" range where more than 50% of women would still date you based off your height alone ranges from 6'0-6'11 in the USA and 185cm-210cm in Europe. I know, it's insane how high the standards are.
How much is this due to selective bias and height inflation (particularily in USA where claiming 2 inches above your actual height seems to be the norm)? It's hard to say. But insisting that the ideal male height is sub 180cm is ridiculous to me given all this information, and even under 185cm is hard to argue unless you have plans on becoming a gymnast or jockey.
All factor considered I believe 6ft1-5 (185-195cm) is the optimal range for a man in 2025 in the western world. Which height is optimal for you in that range depends on your values in life.

Hey Rob, I measure at 176cm at night and 178cm in the morning. I currently weigh 98kg and I'm planning on losing some weight. If I lose about 20kg, do you think it's possible that I can have a slightly higher height at night time (maybe 176.5cm) if I lose some weight given that there may be less pressure on my body?

Editor Rob
It might not be anything noticeable, but I suppose you could do an experiment after losing the 20kg and see if you end up a couple of mm taller.

Hi Rob,
The vast majority of people would define short a guy who's 5ft6 flat (let's say between 167 and 168 cm). At the same time, I know several guys who're around 172-173 cm barefeet and it's pretty rare for them to be called "short",at least here in Italy. That being said, do you think that a guy who's in the middle between those marks (170 cm on the nose, afternoon height) has a greater chance to be viewed as short or average?

Editor Rob
He will be viewed short by a chunk of the population. There will probably be a large increase from say 5ft 8 down to 5ft 7 and then another massive jump of people viewing you as short once you hit 5ft 6.

It's certainly enough for you to be claiming Six Foot if anyone asks. A solid 6ft might only dip a little under the mark at night, which is what you do.
Mike190 said on 11/May/25
Rob do you think it would be possible to gain 1cm in height through stretching and core strengthening exercises in a person that is completely untrained with average posture to begin with?

Editor Rob
In some cases I believe it is possible. If the spine isn't aligned properly and they have never stood as well as they could for a measurement, it's easy to see people who might end up measuring half inch (or even a bit more) taller after months of stretching/exercise routines.
grizz said on 11/May/25
I'm back! Thanks,Rob!
Lots changed with my height perspective and my actual height.
I used to be 182-183 cm. Went to an MRI scan of vertebrae and several physical therapies later, I gained 2cms due to extremely weak back muscles that couldn't handle the burden (ironically, I thought I was relatively strong).
With regular morning stretches I'm maintaining- 186.5 cm straight out of bed, 184.2 at my absolute worst. What is more, turns out one leg is shorter than the other by a cm. Theoretically, with some brave experts willing to extend the shorter leg I might add another cm.
Now with improved posture I can stand tall and boy, the difference is HUGE.
I used to think I was @ lower average walking down the streets in Croatia (I was prob 178-180 while walking due to weak muscles). Now I can say that I'm comfortably average and 95% of women are shorter or as tall as I am.
My perfect height?
I agree with Kevin's arguments, although I think his current height is my perfect height already.
1) you can still be a perfectly fine gymnast at that height
2)this is the last last height for someone to fit inside and drive a F1 car (my dream)

With your stats, I would stick with the 185cm or 'almost 6ft 1' claim. If you prefer a low, then 184 is something to consider.

There's no way that the average height of the male population in France is 180 cm. Not even close. I've worked in France for a year and travelled across the country several times. I'd say 176 cm at most, maybe just slightly more that here in Italy.

@Kevin
hey bro . i would say the minimum height that is arguably / possibly the bottom end of what is in the ideal range is 178cm evening / low . below that is 100% not "ideal" anymore . i mean i am around 176cm in the evening (i dip a little bit below 176 at the very end of the day after 12-13+ hours unless i am at home the whole day ) and i can definitely say that my height is pretty good and i am not unhappy . but it is not ideal for sure . i wish i was at least 2-3cm taller and ideally 5-8cm taller
178 evening would be bare minimum for that but even 178 might be a little bit too low too . so rather around 179-180 tbh . so yeah i kinda agree with you
as i said my personal ideal range is 179 - 184 range evening height . possibly 185 - 186 too if the proportions are good . imo even though 187cm and above are still really good heights it is "too long" vertically to be ideal anymore . hard to explain what i mean but i think above 185/186 is not ideal anymore because it looks too stretched virtually lol . the glass is already full at a weak 6'1
the problem with the lower ends of my ideal range is that you will look and feel short when very tall men are around . like lets say you are surrounded by a couple of dudes who are all around 190 - 199cm . you will feel a bit short in such situations. you dont have that problem at 184 185 . for a 184-185 guy to feel or look short there has to be men around who are minimum 198+ which are very rare heights .therefore i would say IF body proportions are good and IF facial and skull proportions are good then 184-185cm evening height is the very best height to be for a man . there is a user here who is a personal trainer who says the same . he has trained many dudes of all kinds of heights and he also says around 184 is perfect and and also looks the best
so again to summarize it : mesomorphic body structure + good proportions + broad shoulders + good facial harmony and good skull shape + around 184cm height in the evening = the perfect height to be
and being lanky is not the only downside that tall heights often have mate. but i dont want to say anything more regarding this because i feel bad doing so . i dont feel any members here to feel bad or something
but anyway . just want to add this too : when it comes to attracting women i have observed and experienced myself that once you reach around 173cm evening height it comes down mostly to facial attractivness and body frame from there and you can not blame your lack of success on your height anymore .
183 cm traveller said on 10/May/25
I’ve travelled through Western and Central Europe. I now live in Romania, which is the only Eastern European country I’ve been to. I’d say the average male height in Europe is around 180–184 cm. In France, where I’m from, it’s about 180 cm. In Central Europe I visited Austria and the Czech Republic the average seems to be around 182 cm. In Romania, I’d estimate it at around 179 cm, maybe 178 cm at worst. I’ve never been to the Netherlands, but reports say the average is 183–184 cm, and I’d trust those numbers. Based on my observations, 190 cm is above average but still fairly common.

Rob my height after 17 and a half hours is 183.950 cm, I'm tired and I measured myself with relaxed shoulders and not tense.
between 183.5 cm, 184.2 cm, 184.8 cm, 185.4 cm, for how you reason which one do you tend to prefer
thanks

I would measure with good posture, your low seems around 184, so it's enough to go with 185 as a claim during the majority of the day.

Hi Rob,
As of today, would you still say that 170 cm and 180 cm barefeet are respectively the start of short and the start of tall in a country like UK?

Editor Rob
Yeah, those figures could be thought of as the starting zones, although I think the closer to 182cm the greater a percentage would then start thinking of somebody as tallish.

In Scandinavia and Netherlands the average height reached a plateue already in the early 1990s. Dutch conscripts measured 181.2 cm back then. You grow another half a cm after the year of 18 and if you take into account ethnic dutch there is another half a cm. Dutch men aren’t taller than 182 cm.

@fullduchess23
You're supposed to stand at your tallest when you measure yourself. Refusing to claim your measurement with good posture is like saying your bench press PR isn't legit because you were well rested beforehand and wouldn't be capable of matching it after a long day of physical work.
If you are 185.4cm in the evening you should claim 6ft 1 or 185cm worst case. Anything less than that is fallacious.
Mike190 said on 6/May/25
@Grayloth
For the general population, including older generations and immigrants yes 182-182cm is the average in the Netherlands. I'm talking about young ethnic Dutch men which are 183.8cm on average nationally and 185cm on average in the northern regions (Friesland, Groningen).
Yes it does seem that the Dutch reached a plateau in the 1980s, with evidence suggesting that the population born in 21st century is even slightly shorter, but this is not the case in the Balkans. Young men in the Montenegro are 183.3cm on average with the populations living along the Adriatic sea in Dalmatia being the tallest in the world. Makarska, Croatia has a mean height of 187.6cm (almost 6ft 2)!
I have been to both these regions and can say without a doubt that Dalmatia has taller men on average. I felt very average at my height and my Father did not stick out at all at 196cm like he would back home. There were 2 meter men on every corner, it was insane.
This is why I personally am not satisifed with my height and hope to grow an inch taller. Anything less than 190cm in these tallest countries is average at best. At 6ft 3 you can atleast call yourself above average in every country in the world.
Kevin said on 6/May/25
@c-mo
180cm is the lowest height I could see one arguing as being ideal. Male models are usually between 5'11-6'3 so it's in that range but barely. 6'1 is exactly in the middle of that range. I don't think lankiness is an issue until you're 6'2+. Have definitely seen a few 6'2 guys whose proportions looked off because they're too skinny.
I remember being 180cm when I was 16. I thought it was a pretty good height back then. Felt tallish. Never felt inadequate about it. But I like being 184cm more. Actually, if I could only choose between my current height (184cm) and 188cm I would choose to stay 184cm. To me it's a great height, nearly perfect.

Hey man,
Just a quick note: if I’m standing absolutely straight—like, maxed out tension, back tight, neck long, everything stretched to the limit—I just about reach 185.4 cm. I’m brushing it. Barely.
It’s 7:54 PM right now, and I’ve been awake since 7 this morning. I haven’t done much physically today—nothing intense or tiring—so this is me at the end of a chill day, but fully upright. No tiptoes, no cheating. Just maximum effort posture.
That said, just so you know—in real life, I’m nowhere near that tense. Like, normally I’m way more relaxed, slouchy even. This was me in full-on statue mode. So don’t get used to it.

LOL that is an EASY 185cm claim . not only that ...imo you SHOULD claim 185cm . but it is up to you to decide .
many men claim a height at least 1-2 inches higher than what they are sometimes even 3-4 inches .
and on celebheights members claim their height after being awake for 100000 hours , after having been very active and worked out for many hours having stressed their spine aggressively , maybe even being dehydrated , and maybe even not standing as straight as possible on top of it . because they think this will be "modest" and "honest" . just lol . such a nonsense ....

Hello Rob,
I have measured myself at 6'1.3 morning height, 6'0 11/16 afternoon and just a smidge under 6'0.5 like 6'0.4 at my low.
Considering this was with a tape measure (using a can, back to wall) what's the range of what my real height could be? Could I claim 6'1 without being called out or is it a dishonest claim?
And assuming those are all accurate what might I get a listing at here? Thanks!

Editor Rob
6ft 3/4 might be a listing I'd go with. But considering you are still about 6ft 1/2 inch at your low, I would say 'about 6ft 1' if anybody asked.
The about gives people an idea you might have measured a little under (or even over) a figure.
Grayloth said on 5/May/25
@Mike190
The dutch aren’t 184 cm. They are more 182 cms. They are similiar in height to the Scandinavians since they have roughly the same gene pool and living standards.
The Balkan heights I am also sceptical about. Ideal height from a golden ratio perspective is 6 feet. But you don’t want to be exactly optimum height, since you are standing with one ”feet” on each side of the ideal height so to speak. Instead, you want ro be close to that height so 181-182 cm is ideal and makes sense, and the Scandinavians and Dutch reached that average height already in the late 80s/early 90s.
Grayloth said on 5/May/25

I'm posting this video here to show how much of an impact the height of the camera above the ground and the positions of your body and the tape measure have on how tall you look in comparison to a tape measure and height chart on camera.
At the beginning of the video, you can see a paper height chart with marks on it. The lowest mark on the chart is 5'3, the next mark above it is 5'4, the one after is 5'5, and the highest mark in the middle of the paper is 5'11. At timestamp 0:50, my feet were touching the wall and I appear over 5'11 in front of the height chart even though my real height was not much over 5'10 that moment. But at 0:25 in the video, I run a tape measure straight up from a spot on the floor that is the same distance away from the camera as my toes are, and on camera the top of my head looks lower than the 5'10 mark on the tape measure. Another thing you might notice is that I appear noticeably taller in front of the height chart at timestamp 0:25 than I do at timestamp 0:50. That was because I was closer to the camera (the backs of my feet were about 9 inches in front of the wall) at timestamp 0:25 than I was at timestamp 0:50 (which was when my feet were touching the wall). At timestamp 2:01, I measured my height on stadiometer as 5'10 1/8. I know you can't see the ground but trust me, this stadiometer measurement was legit and accurate. I recorded the video at 4:02PM so I was at my low height. The camera was about the same height from the ground as my navel.
After this attempt at trying to do the same things Nancy Mulkey did in her videos, I'm having a hard time believing Nancy is as tall as a full 6'9, let alone 6'10, comparing how tall I look on my video vs. how tall she looks on hers. Another thing a friend of mine on discord told me was that she was standing on a carpet behind her which looked higher than the floor in front of her, which may have given her height.

@c-mo 176-177cm
Thanks. I'm not quite there (yet), as I chose this name as a positive affirmation/manifestation. I'm around 189.5cm first thing, 187.5cm at night, and just over 187cm at my extreme low. I'm in my early 20s, so hoping I can grow at least one more 1cm, ideally 2-3cm. I have grown 4cm after turning 18, so I think I'm somewhat of a late bloomer. In real life, I claim 6ft 2 (188cm).
I totally agree with what you said about proportions, though. My father in his prime was 196cm and while his height certainly gave him many advantages in life, he is very lanky and was regularly teased for being a too tall "stringbean" throughout his teen years and early adulthood. I myself suffer lankiness but to a lesser degree, thankfully. I would happily be 183-185cm if it meant I had ideal proportions, but I wouldn't go any lower than that.

You're a weak 6'1 but I think you can safely claim 185cm or 6'1 when talking to people. I'm guessing you only go down to 6'0.5 at an extreme low. I wouldn't claim an extreme low height.

@fullduchess23
why would you claim 184cm when you are 186.6cm in the morning ? you should claim at least 185cm IMO
@Kevin yeah i would probably take 184-185cm (weak 6'1) too if i could keep my current proportions and face / head aesthetics . even though 180cm is my favorite height . because 184-185 holds itself better when standing next to dudes up until 197-198cm . but for 6'1 to be perfect good body proportions and face / skull aesthetics are necessary . and in my experience many men above 6'0 simply dont have that (again no offense to anyone)
@Mike190 looking at your username it seems that you are around your ideal height :) thats good bro . and yes 6'3 is a very good height if you can pull it off

Hi Rob, it's 12:27 at lunchtime, I've been awake for 7 minutes. I measured myself against the wall with an object on my head and got 186.6 cm. I used my maximum possible posture (almost unnatural).

I recently measured my tallest morning height ever at age 31. 6'1.125" first thing out of bed. I've measured it several times when I get 8 hours of sleep. In my 20s I would've never measured more than 6'1 flat out of bed. I've also been taking 10,000 IUs of vitamin D3 and 200mcg Vitamin K2 MK7 everyday since last year. Is it possible that I've increased my bone mass by taking these supplements, hence the slight height gain? Just found it interesting that I've apparently managed to gain height in my early 30s, albeit millimeters.
@c-mo
I'm in the US. A rock solid 6'1 at night would be my ideal. It's tall, but not so tall that it becomes a defining feature or a point of conversation. A 6'1 guy can still blend into a crowd easily enough. A 6'1 guy will also be taller than basically 100% of women anywhere they go barring a few rare outliers. Unless you want to be an NBA player, there are no downsides to being 6'1 in everyday life.

@c-mo 176-177cm
My ideal height for a man would be 6 ft 3, specifically 191.5cm first thing and 189.5cm before bed.
Reasons:
-Maximum height to be a male model
-Maximum height to be an astronaut and glider pilot
-Single and twin mattresses are exactly 75 inches long
-You will be considered tall even in the tallest countries since you are 190cm
-People will universally recognise your height as tall, but will not comment on it directly like they would with a 6ft 4 and above guy
-It is an extremely athletic and well-rounded height given that most sports have an average male height of 6ft1-3 such as NFL, NHL, MLB, tennis, etc and even NBA point guards are 6'2.5" on average
-Public transport, furniture and clothing are generally only designed to accommodate up to the 95th-97.5th percentile in height (6 ft 2- 3)
-Rollercoasters generally have a maximum height of 195cm (in shoes), and you will be comfortably under that mark in normal footwear
-Due to height inflation (particularly in North America), most people in real life think a barefoot 6ft 3 guy is 6ft 4-5
-You can claim very strong 6'2, 6'3, or 6'4 in shoes depending on the situation
This is for countries where the average male born in 2000 is 5ft 10.5 / 179cm (Australia, Canada, Ireland). If I lived in the taller European countries like the Netherlands and Montenegro, where the average is 6ft 0.5 / 184cm and almost up to 6ft 2 in the tallest regions, I'd want to be 6ft 5-6. The same applies to the shorter countries such as Timor-Leste (average height of 5ft 3 / 160cm), where I'd only want to be 5ft 8-9, assuming I never had plans to leave the country.

it is time to raise up the activity of the site again since comments get approved again :)
i have a question @everyone . i have asked similar questions several times in the past already but cant hurt to talk about it again . what height range do you guys and gals think is the best to be ?
in my opinion it is 180 - 186cm . lets say 179 - 185cm at night more or less . however this is presumed that body and face / height proportions are good . many men who are above 180 especially above 183 have already poor body proportions and also poor facial features / head proportions . and the likelyhood of it increases with each centimeter more and more after 185 . no offense to anybody but that is what i have observed in real life . i would rather be a well proportioned and harmonic looking 175cm than a poor proportioned 185cm with not so good facial features and skull shape
and around 180cm looks best from an aesthetic point of view in my experience but there is a problem with this height . even though it is not short at all and even a little tallish and a little above average it will look short next to very tall men . it will look a bit dwarfed next to men who are 192-193cm and will definitely looked dwarfed by men who are 195 and above. you dont have this "problem" at the higher ends of my ideal range (184 - 186) because for a 185cm man to look short you need to put him next to men who are 198 - 200cm+ or so which is a very rare height . i know that heights above 190 are not that common but still there will be situations where such really tall men are around and in those situations 180cm will look short
nevertheless i do think 179 - 180cm at night are still ideal heights
oh and by the way if you wonder how i feel at my own height at around 176cm evening . it is definitely a good height and i am happy . but i would have liked to be a few centimeters taller ideally
what is your ideal range ?

Hi Rob, I measured myself around 2:40–2:55 PM using a tennis ball tube. I’d been awake since 7 AM after 6.5 hours of sleep. Standing naturally (not too relaxed or forced), I measured about 184.2–184.5 cm. If I force my posture, I get close to 184.8–184.9 cm.
If I were a celebrity, what height would you list me at? And what should I say to friends who ask how tall I am? Are there any celebrities you think measure similarly to me?

Hi Rob, nadal, freddy prinze jr, ryan gosling, how tall do you think they get up in the morning if they go straight under a stadiometer?”
I would estimate that Rafael Nadal wakes up at around 185-185.1 CM, and he falls asleep somewhere around 183-183.1 CM. Freddie Prinze Jr. likely wakes up at around 6’1”, or even a fraction above it. Ryan Gosling probably measures at just under 6’1” out of bed.
I thought that Rafael Nadal was only around 6’0”, yet he didn’t appear to be that much shorter in comparison to Stephen Curry in a Subway commercial.

Hi Rob is it possible to shrink 3cm or more during a night shift which mainly consists of standing and bending?

Editor Rob
A heavy shift like that could potentially push you 1/8th below or in some cases 1/4 below a typical low range. So if your typical shrinkage is near 2.5cm, a full 3cm is possible.
Caleb 178.8cm said on 29/Apr/25
Wow, so the standard deviation of the males is over an inch higher than that of the females. That's a big difference. But I'm not all that surprised honestly since there are a lot more females who are average height (5ft5 - 5ft6) than males who are average height (5ft10 - 5ft11) on this website. There are more males who are 6ft5 than females who are 5ft11 as well.
About the Nancy Mulkey Instagram video, I thought she was under 6'10 but cleared 6'9 there. Being in front of the tape measure makes you look taller against the tape measure than your true height.

rob I get up at 7 to go to school, I come back home around 2 pm, is it okay if I measure myself at that time or should I measure myself in the evening at my minimum after a day of training?
anyway I thank you for your advice to measure me on the wall around the house

Editor Rob
You might find that your shrinkage from 2-3pm compared to 8pm isn't that much, so it's perfectly fine to go with your 2pm height.
5'8 Cowboy said on 29/Apr/25
Rob, I just measured myself throughout the day. I get up around 5'8 and 5/8 to 3/4, then after a long day of school with a heavy bag on my back, I still hold around 5'7 and 7/8, do you think that I could confidently claim 5'8? Thanks Rob, Jack

Editor Rob
Yeah, claim 5ft 8 without fear or hesitation.

Caleb 178.8cm said on 28/Apr/25
As of today, what are the average male and female celebrity heights and what are the standard deviations (in cm) of the height of the male and female celebrity populations, if they can be calculated?
I'd prefer the calculations to count the trans-female celebrities as male celebrities and the trans-male celebrities as female celebrities, but I know that because there are probably only less than 15 trans celebrities in total on the site it probably wouldn't hurt if you didn't take this into account.
The male celebrity population will definitely have a higher standard deviation than the female celebrity population. Thanks in advance.

Editor Rob
Here is Stats which may be of interest to folk:
CelebHeights Stats.
There is a greater proportion of females at the moment. I will try to add more males!
The standard deviation is greater for Males.
The height distribution graph is only a sample of 500 per gender.
The average figure is skewed a fraction higher because of Celebrities who have passed away reverting back to their peak height.

How tall does Nancy Mulkey look from watching these videos? Maybe 204cm or a tad over 6'8 in the YouTube one? The YouTube video was filmed at 7:09PM and I'm not sure what time of day the Instagram video was filmed.

In that instagram clip it appeared she was 6ft 10 range. Assuming no funny business inside socks!

Well, they're agencies give them 183cm and 191cm. I'd agree at least 3 inches between them, maybe a bit more. I'm not familiar with whether the Rob guy is only 188cm or the 191cm his agency gave him!

Hey Rob can you add YouTuber Angry grandpa? In the videos from 2010-2017 he was 60-67 I believe he was probably around 5’10 around then but his peak height I would guess be maybe around 5’10.5.

Hi Rob, nadal, freddy prinze jr, ryan gosling, how tall do you think they get up in the morning if they go straight under a stadiometer?

Add between 1/2 to 3/4 for some guys like that. Maybe Freddy is one who might end up being 3/4 inch taller first thing than his listing.
Heightologist 10 said on 27/Apr/25
@Rob
Ah I have watched that video. However I am pretty strict on the “past 21” requirement and researching all of the celebrities on the video, about all of their growth spurts ended before 21. Will Poulter was the closest to qualify but he stopped growing at 21 not after. All the documented famous growth spurts I’ve read seem to all stop by 21 max.
I have found another past 21 qualifier ( Alexandre Pato ) but it seems very rare to even put a quarter of an inch past 21 which would qualify for the list. Growth past 21 seems to around the top 0.1% range ( 1 in 1000). But yea with doing my research it seems that medically natural growth at 22-25 is very rare, with cases like Macchio being close to 1 in a million.

Editor Rob
The 21-25 definitely is a rarer occurence.
fullduchess23 said on 27/Apr/25
Rob, I’ve always told everyone that I’m 183 cm tall, but everyone keeps saying, “No way, you must be taller.”
Many people perceive me as being around 188–190 cm, maybe because I'm slim and have long limbs.
Yesterday morning, after waking up and doing my usual routine, about 10 minutes later I tried standing under a doorway that is exactly 185 cm tall, but I couldn’t fit — I was taller.
Then I moved to another doorway that measures exactly 187 cm, and there I fit much better — I could even fit one finger (my index finger) between the top of my head and the doorframe.
I would like to understand: if I were a celebrity or someone important, how would I be listed on your site?
Please, I really need help. I honestly don’t know what to tell people.
I want to stay humble, because that's just who I am. Please help me.

Editor Rob
Standing under a door frame is sure one way of getting a decent idea, especially if the frame is easily measurable, and the surface is flat...but I'd still try to do a couple of self measurements on different walls/floors around the home, then you should get a solid understanding of your height range.

Hi Rob is it possible to have a distance of over 5cm from hairline to top of the head?

Of course, it's rarer, but some people will have quite low hairlines.

Hello Rob, I’ve been compiling a list for documented cases of height growth past the age of 21 using famous athletes/celebrities/etc. I have compiled it on a wiki page.
So far I have Anthony Davis, Ralph Macchio, Jordan Barrett, Clint Eastwood, Dennis Rodman, Evander Holyfield, Patrick Fugit, Lando Norris, Devean Jordan & Turkoglu. I was wondering if you are aware of any others who could qualify for this list?

How tall would you say this woman was if I'm 178.5-179cm 4 hours after waking up? I thought she was 6'2 when I encountered her and she told me she was 6'3, but looking at this photo now I think she's under 6'2. She has a high eye level. Also, you may notice we were both looking up at the camera; that's because the person who took the photo was a very tall man (he looked about 4 inches taller than the woman and he told me he was 6'7)

Editor Rob
Based on your height, I wouldn't have guessed her as tall as 6ft 3. Maybe that's what she measured in sneakers, though?
Gianni 5' 7 said on 26/Apr/25
Hi Rob,
There are many pictures of Inter player Dimarco near 5ft8ish Lautaro Martinez and 5ft7ish Barella. I think he's shorter than both of them but I'd like to know your guess. Thank you very much

If Martinez were 5ft 8 flat, then yeah he can look nearer 5ft 6 than 7.

Hi Rob,
I've been wondering about the height of italian singer Fedez for years. He claims 174 cm, but he's clearly shorter than his former wife Chiara Ferragni. Also, there are plenty of pictures of him near his friend Charles Leclerc and the height gap is noticeable. What do you think? Would you say he's in 5 ft 7 range?

Editor Rob
I'd say he's possibly in 5ft 7-8 range. Certainly hard to imagine him as tall as 174cm!

Rob, how much do you think I'll grow right now? Last year I was around 6'0.5 at my low, recently I've measured at 6'1.5, might I grow another half inch or so? Turned 17 in October, weigh around 132 lbs/60 kg, parents are 6'2 and 5'9 respectively.

Editor Rob
The odds are fair that you might gain another inch. If you knew whether your Parents grew (well, Father especially) at 18-20, this might mean more growth is possible.

@Jonus I too had some growth, I reckon at 23-25 I put a bit more height. I went from (night) flat 5’9/5’9 1/8 to 5’9 3/8 - 5’9.5 (night). I began to exercise again at 23 by running and going to the gym x3 a week. Maybe it was improved posture or my last bit of growth I’m not entirely sure, but I’ve definitely put on height regardless!

Hey Alex,
You and I are close in height (I’m little shorter), have you ever got down to 5’11.75 at a low? There are times I can retain 6’0, but I’m busy days and carrying a backup full of books, I’m consistently measuring 11.75.
185.5cmJeff said on 5/Dec/24
Hey it’s good to have you back @Jonus, and interesting to see that you have grown as well, like you I’m 27 and exactly the same height as you, my out of bed height is touching 6ft2 (187.5cm) I’ve noticed from the age of 22-27 I am now 0.5cm taller, it could be posture related on my end tbh with you, in most shoes I’m just shy of 6ft2.25
@Connor
Hi Connor it’s Jeff, I agree with you about the generations below us seeming to be taller but I am from the south of England and at 6ft1 still to me the average seems around 5ft9.25-5ft.75 I wouldn’t go any higher or any lower with 5ft9.5 being a middle ground, I have 3 friends who are much much taller then me, one 6ft7 and two 6ft8 friends, of course when I’m next to them in pictures I look small but that’s because they are probably in the less than 1% of the population taller than the rest, which isn’t common. Even though when around them I’m 6ft2.25 in shoes.
So it’s all based on perspectives really, but I can’t agree with 30% of men are 6ft tall, or taller, this is coming from someone who frequents to bars and clubs 2/3 times a week and living in a big city in the uk I can’t see it being 6ft at all, unless they are in shoes like Nike with lifts.
@Rob would you say a lot of the time height is distorted because we go from our eye level which is much different from our actual height. My eye level is around 4.75 inches so it ranges anywhere from low 173cm-173.5cm.
I’ve been on this site for around 12-13 years I don’t post much, but I thought I would give my opinion as I am not far from 6ft.
Good to see you back also Rob.

Should I claim my height lying down or standing up? I measured it at 186 or a little below it in the evening, using the aerosol can method. Though when I did it lying down I got somewhere between 186.5 - 186.6. Is this just a case of poor posture? Granted it was a day where I was lugging around a heavy backpack for a good portion of the day, and my upper back was in pain, but I was still trying to maintain good posture when standing. I know you've made a video about measuring when lying down, but I'm still unsure whether I could reasonably claim that height.

Editor Rob
Always claim a height you can measure on a stadiometer, or standng near a wall, barefoot ideally. Socks, unless really thick ones, barely make a difference.
Jonus said on 3/Dec/24
Glad to see the comments are back up - Hope you're well Rob. Been on and off this site for quite a bit, but I'd like to give an update on my height.
At 18 years old I was 183cm 6ft tall, I would drop to 182.7 on hard days, but pretty much 6ft tall, or a strong 183 for the majority of the time. Was happy but not satisfied with it, I wanted more and I knew my body was still growing and developing as I saw all the signs, so I wanted to maximise my height potential - so I researched.
27 years old now, I went out for about 7 hours came home and measured 185.6cm on my seca stadiometer. I was aghast. Fair to say I grew a little in the past couple years and makes sense tbh; from late teenage years to adulthood a (realistic) final little bit of growth.
I now claim 186cm without hesitation.
Very happy and actually quite satisfied with 186cm.

Editor Rob
Interesting that you had some late growth past 21 from the sounds of it!
Gianni 5' 7 said on 3/Dec/24
At 5 ft 6 3/4 (169.5 cm five hours out of bed) I just feel below average here in Northern Italy (like 28-30th percentile from my observations). I'd say that the average for the whole male population is about 5 ft 8.5 (174 cm), certainly no more and maybe a fraction under that mark. Things change if we consider the young crowds: amongst them I start feeling short. I'd say I'm about 20th percentile when I'm amongst guys who are 20-22 years old. The average height for young italians is probably 176 cm (5 ft 9 1/4)

The average for young males in Northern Germany is about 5'9.5. I have seen lots of comments from delusional people who claim the average is like 6'2 in Northern Germany which is bs.

Hi Rob!
I was measured at 5'9.5" at the doctor's office around lunchtime. Most people tell me that I'm 5'9". In some situations I feel short, in others I feel average. I'm not sure if I'm 5'9.5" or 5'9.25", so I usually claim 5'9". Do you think I'm closer to 5'9.5" or 5'9.25"?

You should test your height at mid-day in your home and see if you clear 5ft 9. If so, a strong 5ft 9 indeed!

5ft 10 would be lowest, with 5ft 10.5 a more mid morning range.
Of course, some people with those stats will claim their highest measurement, though I don't go with out of bed heights personally.

Hey Rob. How could i measure myself easily by myself? I find it very hard to do alone. I always get inaccurate measurements. Only thing i know for sure is that my eye level height is roughly 180cm. So i guess i should be in 192-194cm zone? I usually measure around that range.

Editor Rob
There's many videos on Youtube, the easiest is to find a straight wall/floor and face it, bringing the can (or object down) slowly against the wall till it hits your head. Once you make a mark, you should really be able to get within a couple of mm of your real height.
Ethan1724 said on 24/Nov/24
Hey rob I start the day off at 187.4 cm and by the evening I’m usually between 185.2-185.5 cm depending on how active I am during the day. Would you say I’m a weak, decent or strong 6ft 1? I’m also 17 years old and I turn 18 next April. Do you think I have a chance of reaching 187-188 cm range?

Editor Rob
You only fall a couple of mm under the mark, which is enough I think to say for the most part a solid 6ft 1.
martin17 said on 24/Nov/24
I must have a really high eye level. I've measured myself at above 187 cm in the morning and usually stay at or very near (within 0.5 cm) of that mark during most of the day. Though when I stand next to my 178 cm friend I can clearly see over the top of his head (not including his hair), and from what I've understood the average eye level distance is over 11 cm for men, 10 cm at the low end.

Editor Rob
10cm is quite a short (or high) eyelevel. It would make many other people guess you 2cm taller than you really are.

Hey Rob,
A few solid suggestions below who I think would make for great additions:
Lawrence Dane (Canadian actor in a plethora of classics incl a fair amount of now vintage horror such as Scanners)
John Larch (great character actor in Play Misty for Me etc)
Charlie Hofheimer (has been discussed on the Corey Hawkins page - good character actor, memorable roles aplenty)
Sam McMurray (looked similar to Cage in Raising Arizona)
Nikesh Patel (looks at least 5ft 11 in shows like The Devil's Hour)
Chase Stokes
Gerardo Celasco (Swimming with Sharks, films like Moneyball. Looks taller than Finn Jones who you've met, and gets listed at 6ft 1).
George Young (Malignant)
Richard Cabral (Mayans)
Alex Neustaedter
Dennis O'Keefe (in classic noirs)
Jared Abrahamson
Cheers
George89 said on 3/Oct/24
Yes, many studies that measure human height are often conducted earlier in the day, which tends to result in measurements closer to a person's "morning height." This practice is because height fluctuates throughout the day due to spinal compression. When a person is lying down overnight, the intervertebral discs rehydrate and expand, leading to a taller height in the morning. As the day progresses, the force of gravity compresses these discs, leading to a gradual reduction in height.
By conducting height measurements in the earlier part of the day, researchers aim for consistency and to minimize the impact of daily height variation. It provides a more standardized value that better represents an individual's maximum potential height, rather than one influenced by the compression effects that increase throughout the day.
So then I asked.. so could the night time heights be 1 or 2cm lower than the recorded averages.
Exactly. For most adults, the difference between morning and evening height can be around 1 to 2 centimeters due to spinal compression over the course of the day. Therefore, if the height recorded in a study is measured earlier in the day, you could reasonably estimate that the person would be about 1 to 2 cm shorter by nighttime. This variation depends on factors like age, hydration, physical activity, and overall spinal health, but a 1-2 cm reduction is a typical range for most people.
I asked chatgpt about human height studies. This is the answer which confirms what I've thought before. I'm 5ft8. Full range of height goes between 173.8cm down to 172cm at my absolute low. Maintain 172.5 most of the day.
In the UK I feel the average isn't the full 178 or 177cm at night. My thoughts are 174 or 173cm amongst the older crowd and 175 or 176cm for the younger crowd at night.
For context my brother goes between 180 and 178cm and always looks a solid high average height.
@RobPaul does your observations follow a similar trend?

Editor Rob
Still feel average in Scotland is 5ft 9 range overall. With women, I've noticed a lot more taller ladies in recent years in 5ft 10-6ft range than I remember from the early days of Celebheights, which is now 20 years old!

@Rob Yeah Simon's very tall. He's definitely the tallest out of the current Wiggles. He looks a couple inches taller than Lachy who's listed as 6’1 on Google. Simon himself is listed at 6’2 but from what I've seen there's defo more than an inch between them. (Google's not always reliable but I didn't have anything else to really go off of so I can only mention those listings for now) Either Lachy's shorter than 6’1 or Simon's taller than 6’2 and I wouldn't be surprised if it was more the latter. Murray Cook (the OG Red Wiggle before Simon took over) claimed 6’4 once as well and is generally listed between 6’3 and 6’4. Pretty sure that Simon even joked that he looks like Murray cause they're the same size, I mean they both wear red and they're both quite tall.

Big rob how tall do you think Ian Connel is from burniston and do you think he should have a page

Editor Rob
Tallish from what I remember, but not sure on a specific figure. Would need to see him again beside Richard Rankin in a sketch to get a firm idea.

Hi Rob. I measure 178.4 cm first thing in the morning, and 176.8-177 cm at night. Would I be listed at 5'9 3/4 or 5'9 7/8 on your site? Is this considered average height?
My morning height is 178.6. Tallest I ever measured right out of bed with anterior pelvic tilt which I still have even I go to the gym 6 times weekly was like 178.8. My low height is always either flat 177 or a few mm over it, and my extreme low is 176.5 cm after a tough leg workout , sometimes even 176.4.
So we are both 177 cm. I’d rather want the 5’9 7/8 listing. Since it’s a unique listing.
Cooper Clarke said on 1/Oct/24
Rob have you ever looked into the Wiggles' heights by any chance? I was obsessed with the OG's as a kid and they've become quite popular over the past few decades or so. Even to this day with the current gen they haven't stopped being successful, even making #1 on Triple J's Hottest 100. A fair few of these guys are listed on Google as well over 6ft tall. I can imagine them being on here at some point in the future.

Editor Rob
I have sat through some of their songs on more than a few occasions.
Simon Wiggle claimed 192cm, he did look quite tall.

5ft 9.75 is a fair listing. If you were a celebrity, you might pass for 5ft 10.
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 29/Sep/24
How about the comedians Stewart Lee and Richard Herring, Rob? I've seen 5'11.5 listings for stew and this looks about right, he looks above average height. Richard has claimed 5'7 but he looks a good 5 inches shorter than Stew so I'd so about 5'6.5 for him, plus in photos he looks slightly shorter than legit 5'7 guys.
Gamer Ak said on 28/Sep/24
Rob can you list Sneako? he claims 6'2 but looks 6"0.5-6'1.5 minimum barefoot. What do you think rob?
Caleb 178.8cm said on 27/Sep/24
@Darksol64 Actually I think Jamarion Sharp might be 7'3.75 barefoot, because some (but not all) of the players who participated in the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament were listed as being pretty close to the heights that they got measured at without shoes in the 2024 NBA combine. Such players include Isaac Jones (P.I.T. height of 6'8 vs. combine height of 6'7.75 without shoes), Enrique Freeman (P.I.T. height of 6'7.5 vs. combine height of 6'7.25 without shoes), and Nae'Qwan Tomlin (P.I.T. height of 6'8.5 vs. combine height of 6'8.25 without shoes).

In the second screenshot is 6'8.75-measured Marquese Chriss (#32) and Zhang Ziyu. How tall does Zhang Ziyu look if Marquese Chriss's height of 6'8.75 is legit?

Big rob if I get measured at 6'1¼ at lunch (woke up at 7.30am) how tall would you think I would be
Matt Shannon said on 25/Sep/24
Hey Rob how tall do you think voice actor Roger Craig Smith is? He’s listed as 5’6” on google and other websites but looking at photos of him with other people he looks between 5’4”-5’5”. What do you think?

Editor Rob
5ft 6 is wrong, 5ft 5 was my first thought having a quick look at him. It's what he claimed in fact.
MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 25/Sep/24
Welcome back, Rob.
I know I've mentioned him before but Tim Robinson is going to be in a film with Paul Rudd and in production shots Tim looks about half an inch taller so I think a 5'9.5 listing would be good for him.

Editor Rob
Not really looked at him properly, but will be interesting to see how he looks with Paul.

@c-mo 5'9.25
Seems like a Big gap between 1.80 and 1.95 tbh i dont know really , honestly life after 1.95 ain't so easy so 1.95 is pretty damm tall.
1.80 seems like the better option if You dont like to standout in a crowd , having a hard time gaining muscle and fit in places like airplines.
Now being 1.95 and jacked/good muscle body is awesome for sure, also great height for sports.
And people respecting You, just by height is real.
Darksol64 said on 24/Sep/24
@ Caleb/Canson: Wow, he is certainly standing over Shaq in that picture! Has he possibly dropped to even 6'10.75 or something here? Or really low 6'11 range at best.
I'll certainly agree with the 6'11.75 peak figure, he never looked strongly into the 7 ft range like Richard Kiel who was legit 7'1.5
To be sure, I have no problem with him claiming to be part of the 7 footer club. Obviously 6'11 and change is close enough!

would you guys rather be 180cm or 195cm ?
i think you know my answer already . 180cm is the perfect height in my opinion and i would take it over any height
but i thought for this forum it would be interesting to ask this question since many here would prefer to be taller than 180cm . but i wonder if you would take 195cm or 180

It’s my current max, I don’t care about the certain heights to be honest. I like my height and I’m comfortable with being 177 cm. 180 cm is not much different from my height anyway, so my height would technically be close to be the best male height anyway.

You think it's likely for someone to grow after 18?
I think an inch and a half or so after 18. I’m about 21 now, so I’m fully done growing.
Canson said on 23/Sep/24
@C-Mo: 195 only because I’m 193-194 now. So closer. But if it’s 190 or 195 I’ll take 190

That style I'd expect a little over an inch, but with time I think will creep under it.

What height are you in boots in the morning?!
With boots and an orthotic I can get 6’6.25-6’6.5 out of bed, orthotic is either 1/8” or 1/4” extra (over regular insole). I’m still 6’5.5-.75 in them at night provided my extreme low isn’t kicking in yet
