6ft 0.8in (184.9cm)
Arch Stanton said on 3/May/15
That's more than an inch on Kimmel, hair or not. Still, a smidge under 6'1" is possible.
Sam said on 24/Apr/15
I just saw Fred Willard appear on Hell's Kitchen, Rob has him at 6'1.5" peak and 6'1" now. It appeared that Willard still edged out Ramsay when they shook hands IMO.

@grizz
I just saw that video too.. same shoes, good posture on both of them. Probably the best evidence there is that he isn't a big 6'1 footer.. more like a strong 6'0 footer (6'0.75). Never really looked like a strong 6'1 guy to me anyway.

Maybe it's time for a downgrade?

He got an inch over 5'11 Kimmel
miko said on 11/Jan/15
Big hair, a big frame and boots can help him look taller than he is.

6'1 range seems fair but he has looked shorter on more than 1 occasion.
Andrea said on 10/Jan/15
Joe is one of the judges in the italian version of Masterchef... That's why i asked that! Sam do you believe Gordon was measured barefoot or with shoes on? I mean, Rob sometimes tries to be as precise as possible, giving 1/4 inches and cannot say if there's more chance he was measured in shoes or not! We're talking about a big inch difference... I can't say anything because i've seen very few things of him but if Rob has him on the site, he must have seen some stuff, i hope!
Sam said on 30/Dec/14
I believe Joe is a solid six footer and Graham is 6'2", may be a fraction more. Sometimes Graham can look at least an inch over Ramsay, sometimes less. Contestants have noted they are all tall.
I like Masterchef, it's the one American Ramsay show that doesn't feel like Ramsay is just going through the raging motions and parodying himself. Kitchen Nightmares was far better in the UK version than in the now ended US version.
Andrea said on 29/Dec/14
Rob, how tall you think the bald guy is?

Editor Rob
basing of Gordon somewhere in 6ft range, at times a bit above that mark he can appear.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 26/Dec/14
Can look a very strong 6ft1 when he stands tall. I think the 6ft2½ is in shoes
Tempest said on 24/Dec/14
He's not calling Gordon Ramsay weak. He means that he believes Gordon is a little less than 6'1", or that he's someone who could pass as 6'1", but might not actually be the full 6'1".
Anynomus said on 14/Dec/14
How the hell is 6'1 weak lol says the dude thats 5'9...his mad lol im 5'11 n im taller then most people
mike said on 5/Oct/14
He can look anywhere between 6ft 1 and 2 so 185-187 range.
Lenad 5 ft 9.75in said on 3/Oct/14
I think he's a weak 6'1 guy
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 29/Sep/14
I saw old footage of him and Marco Pierre White from the late 80s. If White is 6ft3 or close to it, Ramsey looks about this
Aaron183cm said on 21/Sep/14
He always looked like a proper 6'1" guy to me. All these 6'0" downgrades are laughable. He's always one of the tallest people on his shows.
Arch Stanton said on 31/Aug/14
Ross Burden, always reminded me of Steven Seagal LOL!
Arch Stanton said on 31/Aug/14
That's an interesting comparison though. In looking Novelli does actually look tall range but he's shorter than quite a few in comparisons, I think he might be near 6 ft but I doubt 6 ft 2. He does look near it in that photo if you're sure the other guy is a solid 6'1!
Arch Stanton said on 31/Aug/14
[Editor Rob: I bumped into another chef last month, nick nairn who actually looked in the 6ft 1-1.5 range.]

Rob, do you think that at Jean Christophe Novelli could be near 6 ft 2? Click Here That surprised me I thought he was fairly average.
Editor Rob
can look near enough that, or at least similar to nairn
James B said on 21/Aug/14
Looks 6'0.5 here with ross

Lenad 5 ft 9.75in said on 3/Aug/14
I'm with Sam on this one that Ramsay looks 6'1 max most of the time. I suspect that the 6'1.5 and 6'2 measurements were in shoes
Sam said on 31/Jul/14
What height would be if he was measured there with a typical shoe? I think a flat 6'1" fits Ramsay best, if anything he can seem to be a bit under the 6'1" mark rather than over it much of the time.
Editor Rob
if he was in a normal shoe he could very well be nearly an inch smaller and more in the 6ft 3/8ths range.
grizz said on 25/Jul/14
Next to 182 cm Jimmy Kimmel, he doesn't seem much bigger. I give him 184-185 cm max. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq1uP-b7KxY
Lenad 5 ft 9.75in said on 19/Jul/14
Rob, ive been watching him a lot on hells kitchen and kitchen nightmares lately. If you watch some of those videos you will see he definitely doesn't look any taller than 6'1 standing next to other people. I think that the just under 6ft 1.5 measurement was in shoes. I really would advise you check this one again.
Lenad said on 16/Jul/14
I estimate 184cm judging by how he looks on hells kitchen standing next to people. He can look just average height at times sometimes but that's due to his habit of hunching over and making funny head movements when he's berating the contestants
bobbbyyyy said on 13/Jul/14
on the jonathan ross show gordon was shorter than him and jonathan ross claimed to be 186, so gordon must be around 184 or just 6ft. he claimed he was 6ft, but that depends on whether he was wearing shoes at 19 or not.
Lenad said on 12/Jul/14
doesn't look any more than 6'1 to me on hells kitchen
mike said on 17/Jun/14
Rob, why not just list him 6ft 1.25 instead of .3?
Editor Rob
not sure if the model is identical, it looks same brand but maybe not exact model number so the 1/8th error may or may not be present.
Stephanie said on 30/Apr/14
19-year-old boys are often still growing so I wouldn't really take his height at that age into consideration. I think he's 6' 1"-6' 2" now.
Charlie said on 29/Apr/14
JAJ you liar, Beckham isnt any "178-179" he is 180 cm!
Astaroth said on 29/Apr/14
I don't buy him at 6'1.3". Looks a hair taller than Jane Lynch in Masterchef USA. Either Jane Lynch was wearing lifts in her Glee set sneakers or Chef Ramsay is a strong 6.05.
Click Here
Editor Rob
that's the unknown with Ramsey, he was measured about 6ft 1 3/8ths on the stadiometer, but we really don't know if it was barefoot or in whatever footwear...
Sam said on 24/Apr/14
If James May is 5'11.75" as listed, than anything over six foot does seem unlikely for Ramsay, although I watch his shows and Gordon can seem 6'1" range at times.

gordon ramsay same height as james may, but marco pierre white is taller than gordon.
kate said on 22/Mar/14
Gordon is 182cm to 183cm I am that height and we were the same
JAJ said on 18/Feb/14
Barely two inches taller than 5'10" - 5'10.5" 178-179cm David Beckham. So about 6.0" 183cm to Gordon Ramsay.
hess said on 14/Feb/14
I think 6 to 6.1 is right he said once he had size 14 feet thats huge for that height
ballz said on 4/Feb/14
I think he is closer to 6'- 6'1 because he seems about to my teacher's height.
BigGameHunter said on 12/Jan/14
Smaller than white who maintains 6'3 seeming 6'5 because he doesn't shop at supermarkets, shies away from ego, women and knows his mirrors, usually just drinks coke with a straw to maintain his perpetual moment of clarity.

Oliver is like 5'9 but tubby as hell.
James said on 12/Jan/14
Never looked 6'2
ken said on 29/Dec/13
I do not think gordon ramasy is 6ft 2 he is shorther than a lot of celebrities that height I think is no more than 6ft 0 even that height you can look talo and imposing look at victoria azarenka tennis player how tall she looks at that height
Tempest said on 22/Sep/13
I would agree with Somborac. He's shorter than Norm MacDonald when they appeared on Conan together.
Somborac said on 25/Aug/13
I met him at the book-signing event at the Indigo in the Eaton's Centre, Toronto. I'm 6ft with shoes on & was eye-to-eye with him. He's 6ft even, not an inch taller or shorter.
Tempest said on 9/Aug/13
He's shorter than Norm MacDonald.
Tempest said on 2/Jul/13
I thought he was 6'2". His large head and tall hair give him a bigger appearance. He can sometimes pull off looking 6'3".
miko said on 25/Jun/13
I do think Gordon is a 6'1 flat guy, who with boots and big hair can on occasion give a 6'2 impression.
Editor Rob
I bumped into another chef last month, nick nairn who actually looked in the 6ft 1-1.5 range.
Twong said on 23/Jun/13
On the stadiometer on The F Word he was 186.5cm (can see the marks for cm; bold writing every 10cm with 8 regular marks inbetween). I located the mark for 180, then worked it out with a little bit of guesswork; based on the spacing of the other visible marks, I worked out the obscured bits.

186.5cm (6ft 1.43in) minus, say, 0.3-0.5in for typical footwear (it wasn't a serious measurement; they wouldn't have bothered removing their shoes) leaves him at 6ft 1in +/- 0.1in as an average, midday height.

legit177cm said on 20/Jun/13
rob can you give me the youtube link from the picture you posted in above to see how he was measured. Thank you
Editor Rob
I think it was from a channel 4 video, I don't have it now.
Sam said on 19/Jun/13
Rob, the link you have at the top to Chef Ramsay's measuring does not work, at least not for me.
Editor Rob
yeah, imageshack delete images after a while. I don't have the full size image but The smaller one...but it was a clear example of faking a height. Erin called out 6ft 2.5 but the reading really wasn't even 6ft 1.5 when I looked at it closely!
legit177cm said on 7/Jun/13
I'm about 5'10. When i met him my eye was at top of his nose, so i dont know how tall he was but i guess he was 6'1 or fraction over but dont forget he had a good solid inch boot on and i was with 0.5 inch sneaker.
Frost said on 1/Jun/13
I'm 5'1" and Gordan was a good foot taller than I was when I met him a few years ago.
Tom said on 4/May/13
I think Lenny must be between 1.89 and 1.91. He didn't look much taller than 6'0'' actor Treva Etienne in an episode of The Lenny Henry Show in 1988.
Yaspaa said on 3/May/13
I saw Lenny Henry with Frank Bruno at a comic relief thing years ago, and Lenny was definitely taller or at least appeared to be, which is why I always thought Lenny was 6'4.
Tom said on 8/Apr/13
He looked about 6'0 standing next to comedian Al Murray who is apparently 6'3 which is also supposed to be the same height of Lenny Henry; when Lenny met Gordon he was approximately three inches taller(the videos are on YouTube).
Victoria said on 30/Mar/13
Gordon is around 6'0.5 to 6'1 similar to Jonthan Ross does anyone know his shoe size i have heard him say size 14 and 15 feet
Scott said on 15/Mar/13
He looks 6'1 he quoted last year 15 stone with size 14 feet
dicksock said on 12/Mar/13
He's definitely a solid 6'1". I'd bet anything on that.
James said on 21/Feb/13
6'1.5 (187cm) out of bed
6'1.25 (186cm) morning
6'1 (185cm) lunchtime
6'0.75 (185cm) afternoon
6'0.75 (185cm) evening
6'0.5 (184cm) bedtime
Arch Stanton said on 19/Jan/13
Actually he seems to have on flattish fur boots in the lower pic which I doubt would give much more than an inch. But Rylan surely looks no less than 4 inches taller...
Arch Stanton said on 19/Jan/13
Don't forget though Trent that it's highly unlikely Rylan had on equal footwear with Gordon. He usually wears heeled shoes. He's near 6'6" in them I think.
Trent said on 3/Jan/13
Oh, and those pics with Rylan are very good. There is a bit of distortion, but no way is that a guy only 2.7 inches shorter than Rylan.
Trent said on 3/Jan/13
It seems unlikely she would have made him take his shoes off. It's not like he was being formally screened for the agency. It was just a gimmick thing for the show. So he measures 6'1 and 1/3, minus his shoes and the stadiometer 1/8" error he's 6' even. He claimed that himself at one point, and there is no way he would have downgraded himself, knowing how arrogant he is.
klem said on 27/Dec/12
He looks from 6-0.5 to 6-1 with Beckham, if Beckham is 5-11.5.
Arch Stanton said on 26/Dec/12
Seeing how Ramsay looked next to the genuine 6'4" guys on the Cook along and that he measured roughly 6'1.5 on the stadiometer, chances are he is actually 6'0.5 barefoot. But I've long said his height and build is very similar to my own, it's possible he is a bit shorter than I thought. Strange thing is he often looked near 6'2" and 187 next to those footballers.
Arch Stanton said on 26/Dec/12
Click Here

O dear. Scroll down. See him next to Rylan Clark who claims 6'4". If anything Rylan edges out Hoff in comparison to how Hoff looked next to Ramsay last year. He makes Gordon look little more than 6'0 here.
freddie said on 26/Dec/12
Vika is right, although we cant prove he had shoes on I think he did I met in July this year and I am 6'0.5 barefoot 6'1.5 with shoes on and was eye to eye with him Gordon is 6,0.5
Trent said on 20/Dec/12
Are you sure he claimed 15 stone? I'd be surprised if he was that high, 6'1.3 or 6' even.
Amanda said on 19/Dec/12
On a recent cooking show of his in November he was asked to dance, he refused he said 15 stone and size 14 feet, he is somewhere around 6'1.5 no more but no less.
Editor Rob

as I mentioned before he was measured (whether barefoot or not we don't know), but the model called out 6ft 2.5 for some reason even when the reading itself looked just shy of 6ft 1.5!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Dec/12
Gordon Ramsey 6ft1.5(187cm)
Marco Pierre White 6ft2.5(189cm)
James said on 20/Nov/12
Ramsey is tall but I wouldent describe him as 'strong tall'
joe joe said on 19/Nov/12
it happens Im a weak 6'1 and my feat are a size 14 even when I was a younger at about 5'11 My feet were already a size 13 uk not US which is smaller. so it happens. Growing is not an exact science people.
James said on 18/Nov/12
I know someone who is 6'4 with size 16 feet
Arch Stanton said on 11/Nov/12
Yeah its very rare Haddock but some guys do have freakishly large feet for their size. The brother of one my mother's friends is 6 ft range and size 15 feet too. I doubt he'd lie about that.
James said on 5/Nov/12
6'1 like Johnathan Ross
haddock said on 20/Oct/12
i find the size 15 feet claim hard to believe. look how short he looks next to conan gordon is only about 6`0 no way does he have size 15 at that height it is not logical. peter jones dragons den 6`7 has size1 4feet. 6`0 size 15 feet something not right there
Shaun said on 14/Oct/12
No Cranberries, UK size 15 US size 16. Yeah its about what guys near 6'10" wear.
Charles said on 4/Oct/12
I read in the daily mirror an article when gordon was asked to go on strictly come dancing, Gordon said with size 16 feet I think not, I always thought he had size 15 feet, I met gordon in London in august and he told me he was indeed a size 16, Gordon Ramasy has size 16 feet
Shaun said on 27/Sep/12
Ivo Karlovic has US Size 16 feet/UK size 15 and he's 6 ft 10, about right proportionally!
Shaun said on 27/Sep/12
nothing says on 22/Aug/12
he really needs an upgrade rob, seriously 186cm is absolutely ridiculous for him, not even before bed!!!, he's at least 187cm without the hair!

Well he looks very close to my height and build, a bit less toned maybe and my lowest is 186. Actually next to the Hoff at Christmas he was struggling to look even a flat 6'1 though.
Shaun said on 27/Sep/12
Size 15 feet, he has said that a few times, yes that's size 16 US and the shoe size of a basketball player approaching 7 ft. A brother of my mother's friend I met once had size 15 feet and he was only about 6 ft..
Shaun said on 27/Sep/12
No he usually claims 6 ft 2 and 15 stone. He said he used to be 18 stone od; if you look back at old series from like 2002 he was a porker and a lot angrier back then...
charles said on 25/Sep/12
under 6`0is crazy i met and we were the same height 6`1 i am so gordon is 6`1he has size 14 size 15 which are huge for that height
alan said on 22/Sep/12
clive I think Gordon Ramasy has size 14 feet, I found it in a article
Aaaron said on 19/Sep/12
He changes stats every time he uses them. I've heard him say 6' 1", 6' 2", 15 stone, 17 stone, size 14 feet and size 15 feet. why can't he make his mind up,he never played pro for Rangers either
James said on 8/Sep/12
I met Gordon recently in the United states I am 6'1 and were very similar in height I cannot see how he is under 6'1
ANDREA[ITA] said on 8/Sep/12
Rob, you said you dont know if he had shoes on but you should be able to see if he looks more a 186-187 guy or a let's say 183-184 guy? You give some people you didnt meet the 1/4 inch measurement, so that means you're pretty precise... It must be easier to choose between 186-187 or 183-184 than choose between 5'11 or 5'11.25, if you know what i mean!
James said on 2/Sep/12
I was reading an article in the daily mail recently about how he struggled to get his body into a small bath in a hotel room in America it said he was 6ft 1, that probably came from gordon himself so i say 6ft Ramasy is
Thunderbolt said on 31/Aug/12
I met Gordon Ramasy in London in July, I am 6'0.5 and we were exactly the same height, if rob said the stadiometer said 6'1.3 in shoes that makes sense he is 6'0.5 barefoot, if Gordon Ramasy does have size 15 feet he has massive feet for his height
Manering said on 30/Aug/12
editor rob I do believe that gordon is around 6ft 2 6ft as some people are saying on here is too low. i thought Gordon ramasy had size 15 feet. he said that in an interview with Jonthan ross about 4 years ago now.
Triplescrew said on 29/Aug/12
He says in Kitchen Nightmares UK that he has size 14 feet. That would be pretty gigantic for someone who was only 183cm...definitely looks closer to 6'2" on the show.
Pike said on 25/Aug/12
Rob I think you should downgrade Gordon Ramasy down to 6'0-6'0.5 ( 183cm-184cm)I saw a old epiosde of the F word in 2008 when he was measured, he had his shoes on and was 186-187cm.
nothing said on 22/Aug/12
he really needs an upgrade rob, seriously 186cm is absolutely ridiculous for him, not even before bed!!!, he's at least 187cm without the hair!
nothing said on 15/Aug/12
no way he's only 186cm, i give him 188cm and 189.5cm with the hair

i watch a lot of his shows and he always one of the tallest people or the tallest, and to tell u the truth 6 ft 1 186 is not always the tallest among people esp in Europe...
james said on 8/Aug/12
i met gordon ramasy in london last month after my 23rd birthday. i am 6`0 barefoot and was eye to eye with him. gordon ramasy is exaclty 6`0. is it possible rob that he could be downgraded to 6`0. the 6`1.4is obivously a shoes measurement
james said on 25/Jul/12
under 6ftis a joke i met him i am 6ft1.5and we were the same height so gordon is sis feet one and half
Shaun said on 16/Jun/12
Marco Pierre is the tallest chef I think, that James Martin bloke in my opinion looks more 6'2" and not quite as tall as he claims. I saw Marco on BB about 6 months back and he looked at least a legit 6'3".
Shaun said on 22/Jan/12
@Serge. Not even 6 ft? LOL. Seems as he has two inches on David Beckham and Robbie Williams.. I'll agree he looked 6'0.5" next to Hasselhoff though.
Serge said on 15/Jan/12
I met him at the Indigo book-signing in Toronto when he released "Gordon Ramsay's Fast Food". I'm 5'11" with my shoes on & was eye-to-eye with him. Gordon is not even 6ft.
aunold said on 1/Jan/12
Always thought Ramsey was taller but apparently not. Looks huge next to James Kyson Lee in soccer aid picture but Lee is a lot smaller than hed have you think. He has a page on here and youve got to check it out cos Rob absolutely busts him.
miko said on 29/Dec/11
I've been saying for a long time that Ramsey is very lucky if he's 6'1.
Shaun said on 29/Dec/11
Well I was pretty sure he was 6'1.5" range, He could look close to 6'2" a lot next to those footballers for instance and generally does look two inches taller than Beckham. Also he's a few inches taller than Janet Street Porter. Generally in that video accounting for posture I see about 3 inches but as you say they are constantly moving and slouching. Are we certain Hoff is exactly a flat 6'4" though? He could look a bit taller in Baywatch and Pamela Anderson and a few of the others in the cast claim he is 6'5" (although probably so she can claim 5'7"!). I think somebody said though that John Leslie had an inch on him at 6'5". Did Hoff look a weak 6'4" recently next to David Cameron though?
Shaun said on 28/Dec/11
Dunno if you see 42:00-45:10 odd Hoff actually does look near 4 inches taller. LOL if he was 6'2.5" as Erin claims Hoff is pushing 6'7". I'm not seeing anything above 6'1", Rob? Hoff actually makes him look quite small...
Editor Rob
they are both moving/slouching a lot in these clips, but sometimes it can look a big 3 inch bigger yeah
Shaun said on 28/Dec/11
Click Here

Rob see the first half hour, pause at 11:10 for instance. What do you think? I'm seeing 3-3.5 inch difference.
Shaun said on 28/Dec/11
Second picture looks a lot shorter than this doesn't he. Click Here
Ejel Khan said on 25/Dec/11
O'Connor was lying on show to give Ramsey a boost. 6'4" Hasslehoff appeared on Ramsey's live cook-a-long on Christmas day. The difference was 4" in Hoff's favour.
Yaspaa said on 23/Dec/11
Erin O'Connor measured him at 6'2.5? He has the same measuring skills as Vince Basille.
Shaun said on 12/Dec/11
He did look a legit 6'1.5" next to those who took part in the football matches for charity though didn't he.
Shaun said on 12/Dec/11
Dunno, its possible Physics, but I swear, scouts honour, this guy looks very close in body frame to myself and my lowest is 186. Of course people can look taller on TV than in real life, but this guy often claims 15 stone-15 and a half stone which I was for years until I dropped to just over 14 and a half this year.
SAK said on 5/Dec/11
@ Physics Enemy, Beckham isn't 5ft10, more like 181cm/5ft11.



Ramsay strong 6f1, 186cm for sure.
Physics Enemy said on 18/Nov/11
Beckham is 5' 10" Shaun, he was even listed at that in his early playing days. Ramsey is 6' 0.5" without his sneakers and the stadiometer error.
Physics Enemy said on 17/Nov/11
6' 1.375" is 186.37 cm. Knock off 2mm you get 186.17 cm. Knock off 2cm for his sneakers, you get 184.17 cm. That's bang on 6' 0.5". That's his exact height.
Shaun said on 17/Nov/11
He doesn't look under 6'1" next to Beckham.
Shaun said on 17/Nov/11
One thing I've noticed about Ramsay is that he always wears very flat looking sneakers so if I doubt he'd be much lower than this although he could be 6'0.5" maybe.
Physics Enemy said on 16/Nov/11
He was in footwear. 99% certain. Why lie about the measurement, cut-out his feet from the vid, yet measure barefoot? Never. He's 6' 0.5" barefoot, just under 6' 1.3" in sneakers (without the 2mm error). He's 184 cm.
Physics Enemy said on 15/Nov/11
There must be footage of him with his sneakers visible, in that same episode where he gets measured? If we can see them, we can deduct the sneaker difference since Rob will know how much height they give.

If anyone can find a shot of his sneakers from that episode, show us!
Editor Rob
what happens if they cut, and during the cut he took sneakers off. Having these unknowns means the measurement is either in footwear or not, but it's not certain.

there might be a greater chance he is in footwear though, maybe the model would remember, although seeing as she called out an inch taller than he was I have my doubts.
Physics Enemy said on 14/Nov/11
He's exactly 184 cm I think, just about 6' 0.5". He's just over 6' 1.25" with his sneakers and then 184 cm without. His 6' claim for a 19 year old player was close and probably just rounded off from 184.
Physics Enemy said on 14/Nov/11
Come on Rob, he was wearing sneakers. You said yourself they were trying to cheat the measurement and pretend he was very tall. So why would he then be barefoot? It's 99% assured he was wearing sneakers ... IF he was barefoot they'd make a big point of showing his feet in the video to highlight that. 6' 0.5" is fair for him. He even said 6' for himself at age 19.

He's 6' 1.275" or so (without 2mm error) and then 6' 0.5" barefoot.
Editor Rob
but it's still unknown how much his sneakers are, we could assume, but I don't know.
Physics Enemy said on 10/Nov/11
Rob, you should knock off the stadiometer error for this guy. 6' 1.25" (in footwear).

it looks the same seca make, but it might be the first incarnation, like 'mark 1' and the one I've got is 'mark 2'...they've changed their portable stadiometer now and the latest one looks quite different from the ramsey/my one.

he's got to be either 6ft 1.3ish or under 6ft 1 if he had any sort of sneaker/shoe on. That is the real unknown, sneaker or not!
Physics Enemy said on 9/Nov/11
Ohh - There's also the stadiometer error to knock off. Solid 6' 1.25" then, in footwear that is. So he's probably a bit over 6 foot barefoot. 184 tops, maybe 183.5 is more accurate.
Physics Enemy said on 26/Oct/11
He's likely 6 ft flat, I think the measurement was in shoes. If they're going to lie about the measurement I doubt they'd measure him barefoot. They were obviously looking to give him an inflated measurement.
Shaun said on 25/Oct/11
More likely in shoes as Erin is listed at 6'0 and measured 185cm on it. She could have been in converse type shoes maybe. Or is weak 6'1" a little undesirable for a model like 6'3" for a male model? Ramsey always wears flattish sneakers though so he wouldn't be that much shorter than this anyway.
Shaun said on 25/Oct/11
Yup you're right Rob, in fact I zoomed in on the Erin O Connor measurement. He's 186-187cm range NOT 189cm. Although he does look taller than Erin who was measured at 185cm. The thing is more chance he was measured wearing 1 inch sneakers than barefoot. But he does very close in height and build to me ..
miko said on 21/Oct/11
With an ego as big as Ramsay's, I'm suprised he didn't try and go for 6'4.
Physics Enemy said on 20/Oct/11
Maybe this 6' 1.375" was in shoes though. Was it?
Editor Rob
it is a possibility...it's an unknown!
Cranberries (18m, 193cm) said on 16/Oct/11
He wears a size 15 2E shoe...
Christian said on 14/Oct/11
Could it be, that the 6-2.5 mark is the last height that is visible in the empty space covered by the measurement tool and Erin O'Connor didn't know how to interpret the measurement? Maybe she didnt lie then?
Editor Rob
she must have seen the pointers pointing to a mark between 73 and 74, I guess there's always a chance she thought near 73.5 was 6ft 2.5, but I think it's false info she said either way, I think it was done on purpose.
miko said on 13/Oct/11
I've always said I believe Ramsay was 6'0.5/6'1, I guess this new evidence helps a little.

If he is in any type of footwear whilst being measured it would destroy his height claim.
Editor Rob said on 13/Oct/11
To follow up previous comment, here is a screengrab to show that Ramsay was never measured 6ft 2.5 on the stadiometer:

My best guess is it was 6ft 1 3/8ths ;)

Yeah Romeo is an olive skinned kid, looks kind of odd. Brooklyn looks more like he could be the son of Guy Richie than Beckham!!
James said on 7/Sep/11
Shaun says on 6/Sep/11
Actually you are right, Romeo is the most like David, but he is also the most like Victoria. I'd say Romeo looks the most like his parents. Brooklyn really doesn't look like any of them. Cruz looks more like David.

Romeo kinda looks liek david beckham in the 90's. LOL its funny how they obviously give Romeo a fake tan all the time or his skin color could be natuarlly brown?

Ramsay consistently looks about 2 inches taller than Beckham. I think this is spot on at least barefoot. The 6'2.5" is obviously in shoes. Gosh doesn't Beckham look much better with longer hair than the shaved do.

Your not taking into account how ramsey could look 1cm shorter than johnathan ross.

On a sidenote doesn't romeo beckham look like david?
Shaun said on 29/Aug/11
Did anybody see Big Brother last night? Marco Pierre White was on it. I don't normally notice heights on things like that but he really looked a big guy. He was wearing sneakers and didn't look far off the door frame at the end. Towered over everybody when he stood up straight. Certainly he's a legit 6'3", in fact I'd have estimated him at 6'4" he really looks that big.

( as you know im 185-186cm). I got very close to him as a friend of mine drunkardly gave him a hug -To my suprise gordon didnt get heated... mind you he was in alot of hot water with the press at that time.

Shaun said on 19/Aug/11
He isn't under 6'1". He can look just an inch taller than Beckham as he slouches a lot but when stood straight he does look 1.5"-2' inches taller than legit 5'11" er David Beckham. As I said he looks probably the most similar in height and build than any celeb to myself and I measure a whisker over 6'2" out of bed and 6'1.25" at night and weigh about 15 stone.

jonathan ross 6ft1.25 (186cm)
Gordon Ramsey 6ft1 (185cm)

he could look even a fraction shorter than 185cm next too jonathan ross.
Click Here

Brett might have a point because compared too Johnathan Ross Gordon does look 183-184cm range. even with his hair advantage ross does seem too have an edge on him and i think most belive that jonathan ross is not the 6ft1 1/2 he claims too be.

Click Here
Click Here
Click Here

Rob if you look at the youtube videos i posted would you agree that johnathan ross does look a hair taller than him? Will Smith looked taller compared too Jonathan Ross than Ramsey did.

I think gordan should be downgraded too 6ft.05 (184cm). obviously he must have been measured at 189cm in very big shoes or he was just mismeasured?
Editor Rob
they are pretty close in height, I don't think there'd be more than half inch between them. The 6ft 2.5 measurement was done by the woman, of course he had shoes on, and it could have been a 'lightly' touching head one, I would need to look again if I find the clip.

He's 5'11.5 barefoot or 6 feet at best, Bout A year and half before the whole Conan Leno thing, He was on Click Here I believe Norm Mcdonald is the solid 6'1 he claims and he's still hunched, If he stood straight up atleast an inch and half he would have over Gordon. Even standing next to Conan who is 6'4, He atleast looks 4 inches shorter

6 feet
James said on 17/Jul/11
i don't think he's over 185cm
Sam said on 5/Jul/11
He only looks about 6'1" compared to others on his shows, he's obviously over average height but is regularly surrounded by equally tall or taller guys. To me, he often looks about 10 years older than his actual age.
Vegas said on 22/Jun/11
o'connor is coming out 185cm on the dot and she calls out 6'2.5 for ramsey, 31minute mark, you can't make out if either are wearing footwear though Click Here
James said on 14/Jun/11
Rob did you know gordon has size 15 feet?

As for his height i think yes 183cm is too low. I think maybe 6'0.75 (185cm)? He looks very similar in height to Johnathan Ross.

So
Jonathan Ross 6'1 (185cm)
Gordon Ramsey 6'0.75 (185cm)
Editor Rob
I don't know about feet that big

6'2 is a joke for gordon. look how small he looks in that pic

at 6ft you can look tall and imposing. Slightly shorter than Jonathan Ross as well.

Shaun so i take it you don't belive he is 6'0 (183cm)?

He doesn't look close to 6'2" next to Beckham, barely looks taller.

Hard to imagine this guy is a weak 6'2". This is not how a near 6'2" guy looks compared to most, I should know! On a very rare occasion though you'll find yourself surrounded by 6'3"-6'6" guys all at once.
Mathew said on 23/May/11
6'1" give or take.
James said on 18/May/11
He looks 6ft to me. then again maybe he does not look 6'1.5 becuase he hangs around very tall chefs on a regular basis?
Ace said on 13/May/11
I was watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares, and when Gordon enters the restaurant for the first time, the manager immediately states that he was intimidated by how tall Gordon was, followed by the mother citing that he was extremely tall as well. Although I don't think he is 6'2.5, it is clear that he isn't 6'0.5. 6 footers rarely get described as towering. He is definitely close to 6'2.
Somborac said on 12/May/11
He's 6ft EVEN.
Cranberries said on 8/May/11
6'1.5" looks taller than average people, significantly. Cooks are usually small to average in stature; 6'1"-6'2" sounds about right. Certainly is thick-set; he's got some sturdy legs and wrists. 215 lbs. maybe, he's fit too.
Somborac said on 8/May/11

Editor Rob
it's the F Word, episode with model Erin O'Connor I think.

She was 185cm on the stadiometer (I looked at the video and pretty much this looked bang on), but it wasn't as clear with Ramsey (who I believe was in footwear), Erin was the one who called out 6ft 2.5 when he was getting measured...
James said on 5/Apr/11
Yeah but rob who knows Gordon could have been wearing 1.5 inche shoes. Ramsey does not look 6'1.5 or 6'2 at all to me.
James said on 4/Apr/11
rob what height did he get measured at on his show?

Editor Rob
the model got measured first, then Ramsey who if I recall was 6ft 2.5 (at least that is what was said) but I believe this is shoes measurement.

I watched the clip when it was first brought up on here and to be fair, it looked a lot better than the van damme mum measurement!
James said on 28/Mar/11
Okay maybe 183cm is too low. I think 185cm or 186cm could be on the money for Gordon.

Gordan Ramsey 6'1. (185cm)
Jeremy Clarkson 6'4.5 (194cm)

Editor Rob
he did get measured on his show, the model got measured then Ramsay, although I think he still had his shoes on for it, we never saw his feet!

Only looks about 1-1.5 inches taller than David Beckham in recent pics but I think he had sneakers on and Beckham boots. But what has this guy done to his hair/face? He's one of the last blokes who needs a hair transplant, surely?
m said on 30/Dec/10
Under 6'2? He always looked much taller than the participants of the cooking shows, I figured he was around 6'5. Maybe he did factor height into the program because he always seemed to be towering over the contestants and if he's really just over 6'1 I doubt that would happen.
Shaun said on 25/Dec/10
brapp says on 31/Oct/10
he clearly has massive insecuritites, and is very proud of being moderately tall. If you see him on his shows he's always shouting down at people. I bet he specifically picks mostly short, meek people to go on his programmes, and wears high shoes.

No, I don't think height is one off his insecurities, he's got nothing to feel insecure about in terms of height. He generally wears flat sneakers I've noticed.
Shaun said on 25/Dec/10
What makes it obvious to me that he is insecure/nervous is how on edge he always is when presenting. If you want him alosely he is seirously on edge and always looks like he needs to pee. He tends to dancing up and down when speaking and then he gets on with doing something. I think him being a workaholic helps takes his mind off things. He does look 6'1" though.

Walked straight past him on the street, when he was filming ramsays kitchen nightmares earlier this year.

Been watching Hells Kitchen lately. He looks tall, taller than most people noticeably but maybe a whisker under the full 6'2". He reminds me very much of myself in height, build and hair and eye colouring and he also claims to be 15 1/2 stone like myself, 210-220 pounds, in fact I can't think of another celeb who is so similar in shape. Ramsay is my body double LOL. 6'1.5" is about right, maybe 6'2" out of bed like myself.

Bobby is about 6'2" and Ramsay was nearly eye-to-eye with him, making it abundantly clear he wears platform-shoes. He's around 5'11"... NO taller. He wears heels during Hell's Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares and also, when those shows are edited, they "stretch" his image to make him seem even taller... around 6'2" to be exact, but he is NOT OVER 5'11".

I'd buy 6'1" for Ramsay's height. He's probably the kind of bloke who would exaggerate his height (and the hair would help), he's got a huge ego. But I don't believe these claims of under 6 foot, even though I can't stand the man and it would be hilarious if it turned out that he was faking his height.

I'm afraid that you're wrong miko. I watched the same programme and when Jonathan Ross greeted Gordon Ramsey. Ramsey was a good 2 inches taller than Ross.
GUK said on 18/Oct/08
He seemed the same height as Ross, who I believe is slightly under 6ft 1 barefoot i.e. 185 on the nose
miko said on 18/Oct/08
Rob, another dent in the Ramsey 6"2 claims last night, he was on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross (who many believe to be lower than 6"1.5) and looked a solid inch shorter face to face with him and thats if you include Ramsey's hair, and it was Ramsey in the large boots (Ross in fairly flat shoes). I can see him being 6"0 or over but close to 6"2?

Perhaps 6"0.75 is a fairer mark? Add his 1.75" boots and you have 6"2.5.
Jay said on 15/Oct/08
The idea of Gordon being shorter than 6 feet is crazy. He is clearly taller than the average height people.
miko said on 12/Oct/08
Rob, a possible downgrade? He is the same height, possibly shorter than 5"11.5 David Beckham here. I would bet that Ramsey would have the thicker footwear too. I don't like disagreeing with you Rob but 6"1.5 is just too high.

when they visited the model's office, we could see clearly the lady was a little under 6ft 1 in her flat footwear. Ramsey was taller and she said, although not clear on playback, he was 6ft 2.5...of course in shoes ;)

Even more proof Ramsey is nowhere near 6"2, in the England vs Rest of the World football match, he was eye to eye with 6"0 Jonathan Wilkes in football boots, who is the same height as Robbie Williams. He was also noticeably smaller than 6"3 ex England goalkeeper David Seaman.

This means Ramsey maxes out at no more than 6"1 barefoot. 6"2 is his Hollywood height.

Ok, at the end of the show, I was able to tell both Jay and Gordon were in dress shoes.

Editor Rob
the 6ft 2.5 measurement or 'near that' in shoes actually does seem pretty close. In that program with the model you could see clearly her height when she was against the stadiometer.
MD said on 29/Aug/08
Gordon was just on the Tonigh Show with Jay Leno, and he was anything over an inch taller than Jay. I did not see there shoes, however. I know Jay was in his dress shoes, but Ramsay could have been in something flatter given what he was wearing (jeans, t-shirt).

haha. this proves rob is bad at his job! just seeing on gordan ramsays. f word. erin oconnor measured him. she is 6'1' he is 6'2.5''
hmm. i dunno whether to believe your poor calculations anymore or whether to add an inch to every celebrity haha

Editor Rob
Erin was 185cm on the nose so slightly under 6ft 1 so maybe ramsay was slightly closer to 6ft 2.5 *in shoes* unless you saw them taking their footwear off which you didn't! You couldn't see the marking as closely as Erin's 185cm though...Ramsey is no fool.

So I could give him 6ft 1.25 if he's in his 1.25 footwear...or if 1 inch then the 6ft 1.5 was bang on.

Although if Ramsey rounded her to 6ft 1 how do you know she didn't do the same thing with him...
Anonymous said on 19/Jul/08
even though he towers over everyone on tv, he must wear thick soled shoes or lifts. if anyone wnats, i can send them a picture of my 6'1 buddy (who we recently measured)beside gordon ramsay. he is no more than 6' without shoes gauranteed

"6'2'"? "6'6""?!?!?!?, buddy, what the hell are you on? He was obviously wearing thick-soled shoes because when I was on stage with him, he was wearing store-bought shoes with a half-inch sole (as appose to his custom-made shoes that have 2-inch soles)and wasn't even 6ft. I say this because I'm 6ft and was actually a little taller. "Dan12333" was also at Indigo and says the same thing about his height. He's much shorter than he appears on TV.

i strongly believe he is 6'2.5 because i've met him before and he was about 4 inches taller than me(5'10.5"). at about ten feet away i actuallt thought he was 6'6" but then when he got closer i realised he wasn't.

I can't see him being shorter than 6'1". I've watched so much of Kitchen Nightmares, Hell's Kitchen, The F Word, etc. And he is almost always taller than the men he is next to, customers or not. It's rare that he is next to a guy taller than himself.

I met him at Indigo at the Eaton's Centre today and was surprised to see I was actually a little taller. I'm 6ft, he's around 5'11'"1/2.

I was watching Beyond Boiling Point, Episode 3. At about 3:40 the narrator says "... 6'1" ex-footballer".

Courtesy of me, someone who's 6ft and who's worked with him and therefore, stood next to him.

Ramsay is 6'1" 1/2and wears thick-soled shoes.

Does look this height a lot of the time, especially when he was on Jay Leno (who is 5'11") and Ramsay didn't have 2 inches on him.
Ramsay Fan #420 said on 29/Mar/08
No, he told me he always wears thick soles because he likes the style and I tried his shoes on and was about a 1/2-inch taller.

Conan is very tall. Ramsay looks tall on TV, and everybody else seems short except those who are obviously taller than him. I believe his height to be as stated. How would you know it is thick soles? Did he let you touch them?
Ramsay Fan #420 said on 3/Mar/08
I have worked with Ramsay so I have obviously stood next to him. I'm 5'11" and he didn't have 3 inches on me. He's 6'1 1/2", and he was wearing thick soles.
jay said on 25/Feb/08
i met him up close before and he stuck me as being alot shorter than I had thought from tv. I would say 5.9- 5.10 max . he does have a huge head though.

Ricky Gervais is pretty short, he can't be more than 5'8". Ramsay probably isn't quite as tall as 6'2" (a lot of journalists probably round his height up to this), but he's probably at least 6 foot. He did look unexpectedly short in the photo I mentioned (pity you haven't seen it), but then maybe Tennant and Owen were wearing thicker soles.
Randomer said on 17/Jan/08
He's always seemed pretty tall to me, I'd say 6ft 1.5 is pretty spot-on, maybe ad an extra inch for the hair haha
G-MANN said on 7/Jan/08
I can't find a picture of it on the internet, but in the promotional pictures (shown in maganzines and such) for the Extras Christmas Special he was standing alongside Ricky Gervais with Clive Owen and David Tennant and he was noticably shorter than those two.

Editor Rob
I watched that finale, he did have fair height on Gervais, but then surprisingly gervais didn't look shorter than those hale+pace guys. Clive Owen was the best 2 minutes of that show.

HI Danny, are you saying he was half an inch taller than you or 1 or 2 inches taller than you?

Thanks

6'1 to 6'2 is about right.
danny said on 2/Dec/07

X said on 29/Nov/07
Your feet size are 14 American, for a 6'4 frame?....odd...I'm 6'2 and foot size 16... my older brothers are both over 6'4 and there shoesizes are bigger then mine.....and Gordon doesnt look skinny too me...odd you find that.. (response to dave)
ian said on 21/Nov/07
ramsay does look bigger than the majority of people he meets on his show. he was a lot smaller than clarkson, looked about 4 inches smaller. Dave i think 14 ameriacn is actually 13 brit
Dave said on 10/Oct/07
I"m 6'4" and 285 lbs, and my feet are size 14 American, which if I remember correctly is 15 Brit, and about 47 or 48 Euro.

So his frame is almost as big as mine, but he's just a skinny little pouf. :-))
AshnarLynx said on 29/Sep/07
He looks big for sure. Massive and tall. I believe he's 6'2. To me he looked even taller at first, but I guess anybody over 6'1 can look really tall if he has such a build.

You're in the ball-park with Ramsay's height, as I have mentioned further down the page.

Here's a pic of him with 6ft David Coulthard:

picture of him next to 6ft frank lampard tho lamps is slightly slouched he looks to be 6ft1 flat
Melvin said on 14/Aug/07
Yeah what was up on show last night. Ramsey was exactly the same height as Leno as they were cooking side by side. Leno had to be in lifts because I have seen Ramsey once crossing the street and getting into his car and he was not under 6ft.
Chris said on 12/Aug/07
I saw him on the tonight show and didn't look any taller than 5'11" jay leno

weird
Melvin said on 18/Jul/07
This is a celeb I saw once getting into his car. I was walking past at the time. We looked the same height except I was on the pavement. About 6ft 1 would be right for Ramsey as I'm 5ft 9.5 on average and the pavement was about 4 inches high.
Dog said on 20/Jun/07
Stated himself at the start of 2007 London marathon he was 6'1"
OutBenchThis said on 28/Apr/07
Ramsay's about 6'1" or alittle more (186cm)...his large head and thick-soled shoes tend to work in his favour as far as the 6'2" claims go.
jeff said on 1/Feb/07
seen him on top gear a while back. he was at least four inches smaller than jeremy clarkson (6'4"?)
CarbonM5 said on 17/Jan/07
I'm back.

I've stood next to Gordon Ramsay. I'm 5-10 and he is comfortably 6-2.
