Hi Rob! My friendly pussy, Ottica, is licking me in time to the music! I’m listening to War of the Worlds, and intend to watch a Richard Burton film thereafter. 😉

Hi Rob. Would you say a guy who is 171cm, with parents who were about 169cm-170cm (dad) and 162cm (mum) reached his average height potential, genetically speaking?

(By the way, mum's dad and brothers were all around 6ft-6ft2, whilst dad's side were generally short.)

Burning question, please do let me know Rob! Thanks.

Hey Rob if I measured 177.6 cm after 12 hours , what height could I claim ?

Nicola Hunt said on 8/Jun/23
I say 5ft8 and a half. I am 5ft 4 and a quarter inches tall.

You and I are close in height. I measured recently and I am about 5ft 9.25in when I measure first thing in the morning, around 5ft 8 5/8in at lunchtime, and approximately 5ft 8.5in before bed. I always round my height, so I claim 5ft 9in.

I would claim 5’8.5.

@Aheen That is certainly a fair height claim. In metric, you would be the perfect example of someone being a legit 175 cm person.

Nik Ashton said on 8/Jun/23
Hey Sandy! I’m so glad your foxes enjoyed the peanut buttercups I sent you plus the white chocolate high protein bar that your brother bought you. Oh, they do love catfood too and I’m sure they’ll love the scraps, Jasmin likes to lick my hand even if there is just a speck of food on it! 🐩

The father fox is a class dude, he’s so unselfish and he has an interesting way of feeding his young! He knew they’d find the confectionery, complete with his saliva all over it! The kits will have so loved the confectionery! When the father fox is choc-a-block with chocs he may let his young lie on his belly while he’s having a nap!

You are so welcome, I knew that the munchies I sent you would be enjoyed immensely by your resident foxes and I bet they squeal in delight and roll about in the garden on their bellies! Your foxes are all beautiful and placid and I hope more and more is done by our society in the future in order to make the lives of foxes better and better.

I’m so glad you saw a fox in your porch this morning, this will have made your day!

That is awesome man, do you remember how much weight you lifted when first started doing flat benching?

bmb said on 7/Jun/23
@Rob As of late. In hot summer days, when I go for long 45 minute walks and then back, I've noticed I've been shrinking quite fast during the day, even to my absolute lowest height by early afternoon at 176.2cm, when my usual low is 176.7-8cm. Is this kind of fast shrinking normal when you're dehydrated and not notice?

Hi Rob, do you think 176-7cm (solid 176cm) would be considered short for a male in Europe (excluding Southern Europe) and America, when compared to white young males living there?
Editor Rob
Whilst in some countries with average 21 year olds being 5ft 11-6ft range it might, overall I would not class that as short in the vast majority of Europe.
-

No, your height is not short. In europe the overall male average height is 5’9.5. So I guess you are bang on average.

5'10 Abdul said on 7/Jun/23
@BigRob

Hello sir, I have noticed that I compared to last year only have grown 1.5 cm, or up to 2 cm. Does it mean that I am done growing taller? I mean I am a few mm over 177 cm at my low, so I guess I am a weak 5’10 guy. But I am not dissatisfied about my height. Because I do feel about / low average in my country, so I guess I am fine.

But do you think I am fully done growing?

Hey Rob I’m just curious in ur last YouTube video you posed what made you think that Ron Perlmans head is 10.5 inches? Were you just kinda eyeballing it and that’s ur estimate? An average head size on a 7 foot guy would be 10.5-10.6 range Im pretty sure so if it was the big it would look very unproportional you’d think right?

Paul 177 cm said on 6/Jun/23
Hi Rob,

Any guesses on new Spurs manager (sorry, Rob!), Ange Postecoglou?

He's listed on Google as 177 cm - my height interestingly.

But thought I'd ask you, as you'd probably have a fairly good idea!

Rob if i measured 178.5cm out of bed and 176.3cm at night do you honestly think i can still claim 5’10?
Editor Rob
I personally wouldn't, though many guys would just round up to 5ft 10.

I think 'almost' 5ft 10 covers your range better.

@Scubadive. I would claim at your place 177 cm.

@John feeddy quite literally the same height as me! I claim 176cm.

Sandy Cowell said on 3/Jun/23
Hey Nik! The foxies enjoyed the peanut buttercups you sent me plus a white chocolate high protein bar which my brother bought me, when they had finished the two cans of catfood and scraps that were on offer today. I noticed how the father fox carried pieces of confectionery in his mouth and dropped them round the garden for the kits to find - and find them they did! It was a joy to watch……

Thank you so much for all the munchies you send my way. They are greatly appreciated and enjoyed immensely by my resident foxes. 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊 XXXXX

Sandy Cowell said on 3/Jun/23
@ Nik - When I can’t, I feel kinda down, especially when I see a commenting opportunity while I’m watching something!

Sandy Cowell said on 3/Jun/23
Hello Rob, Jenny, baby and all you lovely visitors!
The father fox is sleeping right next to my house now! I saw his skinny foxy legs yesterday, and this morning, he was curled up and waiting for me. I fed him loads of catfood, which I acquired last night especially for him as foxes prefer it to the dog variety.

I bought a large pizza on the 31st of May, having discovered that my weight is down to 91.2 pounds. I could only manage to eat the cheese from the top, and the following morning, the foxes made light work of the many slices remaining. In fact, it was gone in no time!

The Dad fox carries large portions of food to his young, who scramble about at the back of the garden, though they do come up to the house now, and I’m very pleased and excited about that.

Wishing you all a great weekend! 😁👌🏼

Would you think that 177-177.5 cm is average height for a young man in UK?

And did you felt that the average height was a bit different when you were in your late teens or early twenties, because you might have been of average height as an young adult.

This guy went from 5'8 - 6'3

This guy went from 5'5 to 6'0

Makes me wonder what your thoughts are on this, I immediately thought of you. I'm in my 20's now, not something I'd consider, but when I was a shorter dude in my late teens this might have excited me. Now, I'm happy being 5'8.

Makes me wonder, will this be a common future procedure? will it get easier

Also what do you think the long term negative implications of such a procedure will be? Stretching your Femur/Tibia bone 10cm each sounds pretty concerning.

Final add on: Really appreciate you Rob, as a fellow scots-man your channel always cheers me up and I enjoy how humble and humorous you are. Never change.

Ha ha Alanna! I’ve never heard of Ice Spice! Some say you
should keep updated with music, but I’m too into my early rock from the 60s and 70s and their offshoots later on. 60s music brings back my early childhood and the times that went with that period. With the 70s came the Glam Rock era and also punk or New Wave, some of which was really good and I still play that music today.

Mike Oldfield started his career in the early 70s and his music is ageless. He’s 5ft9.

@Johan 185cm:

In all fairness, even 6’8/203cm isn’t that outlandish in the Netherlands. 6’6 in most Western countries is roughly equivalent to 6’8-9 in the Netherlands, so strongly in the very tall category and approaching extremely tall. Definitely not a giant though, I agree with that.

6'10 is definitely not a normal tall height

Is it a giant. I don't think so because on the scale of things 10 inches isn't THAT much if you compare to a 5'11-6'1 guy
He'll be towered for sure but still can make it to the Giuseppe's chin if lucky.
Now a 5'6 guy be obliterated next to a 6'10 range guy

6'6 is giant territory.
I'd say 6'6-6'10 is giant territory

6'11-7'2 is a "mini giant"
7'3/7'4 onward is giant

-----------

6'10" is for sure almost as thats an entire foot over an average 5'10" man. I would say anything 7'0" and above is a giant, absolutely towers guys who are very tall.

I dont actually think 6'6" is that tall. Its very tall but still within norms at least here in The Netherlands.

Andrea said on 21/May/23
Rob, did you take a look at the names I've posted back in December? 😬
In doubt (not really), I'll re-ask you to consider at least the Italian actor Alessandro Borghi, who has been in some of the best Italian recent movies, like Non essere cattivo, Suburra (movie and series), Le otto montagne, and I'm sure has a great career ahead (even internationally). Like I've said before, he claims 186, but I think that's more a shoe height. And before you say that you're not sure he's worth an add or anything like that, don't EVER forget that you added people like Michele Morrone! 😁

Alex 6'0 said on 21/May/23
Jdubzz, technically could even say 6'7-7'0 is extremely tall and over that is a giant. 6'4-6'6 to me is very tall then becomes extremely tall then giant. Like you said a giant will tower a very tall guy. Towering at least 5-6 inches minimal. Its a height that people will say omg hes that tall. At least 6'10-6'11 would be the start but omg heights are more over 7'0

Alanna said on 21/May/23
Would it be an error if someone was measured taller on a stadiometer?

Jdubbz said on 21/May/23
@Alex 6'0:

I'm guessing by giant territory he means "extremely tall", because he says mini/semi giants are taller than people in "giant territory." IDK, that phrasing doesn't make any sense to me.

Jdubbz said on 21/May/23
@avi

I'm not being black and white, it's just what you said was phrased in a confusing way. How is "giant territory" different from "giant?" To most people they mean very similar things. It makes no sense to say semi/mini giant is taller than "giant territory."

We usually say 6'6-6'10 is extremely tall, but not giant territory. Giant territory implies being a giant, not 10" below that category.

@Jdubbz said on 18/May/23

Yes giant territory would be 6'6-6'10

Semi or mini" giant (if you properly read my comment) was roughly 6'11-7'2
Then Would be giant above that

You're very black and white

10 inches on the scale of things in life isn't that big of difference but of course with heights it obviously is...
I was pointing out that a 6'0ish vs 6'10 is towered but the shock value of 5'6 vs 6'10 is crazy BUT a 5'6 guy is short

A true giant will extremely dwarf really tall guys

Sam83 said on 19/May/23
Hi rob, thank you- i will probably wear flip flops/barefoot, which I guess don’t add 0.5 inch, so assume the height difference will be around 1 inch.
I wasn’t prepared to be the shortest in the group! Her friend is 5’7.5 (so similar height, to her and will be wearing those same shoes, so assume she will be over 6ft in those shoes?) and her partner is 6’3, so I just wasn’t sure how noticeable the height difference would be between the four of us if I had no extra height from shoes!
Thank you

Rapha said on 19/May/23
@avi

Yes, most extremely tall people have a condition. I would say that the maximum a human can reach without medical condition and pure genetics should be around 230 cm.

Sam83 said on 19/May/23
Hi Rob, thank you for help, I thought they may add around 5 inches, so guess she will be around 6ft. We will actually be going to fancy dress and those were for a costume- I am going beach theme, so likely wearing flip-flops/barefoot, so no extra height really- so I assume there may therefore be around a 1 inch height difference between us- just wasn’t sure if this would be fairly noticeable in pictures etc?

May be the first time then that my younger sister is taller than me then, if you think these could add 5 inches! Her partner is 6’3, so now wondering if I will look quite short compared to both of them together!

@Alex 6'0 said on 9/May/23

I think freakish (some don't like that word) can be 6'6 but I agree 7'0+ or around 7'0 (6'11 may qualify)
is definitely like a giant.

I mean if a 6'9-6'10 is walking around you definitely will go "OMG how can he be that tall??"

I mean really how many 6'10+ guys does one encounter
It's VERY rare

Since I became height conscientious maybe 17 years ago or so, I remember seeing maybe 3-4 guys 6'9-7'0

I'm pretty sure I never met a legit 7'0 guy

I never came up to someone's shoulder always came up to their chin.

Maybe if I got out a bit more I'd see some more 6'7-6'10 guys but I feel that range it's pretty rare

I went to a basketball game (NBA) maybe 15 years ago and that was where I of course saw some players 6'10-7'1 area

The closest I've been to a really tall person was at the mall maybe 10 years ago and I remember coming up to their chin so that was a 6'10 range guy
Was HUGE

6'6 is giant territory.
I'd say 6'6-6'10 is giant territory

6'11-7'2 is a "mini giant"
7'3/7'4 onward is giant

Guys 7'0 + will have MAJOR issues in life

I can't even imagine being more than 6'5

So normal tall would be up to 6'5

6'6 is that gray height where it's a bit freakish.

The health issues a 6'6 guy vs a more optimal tall height of 6'2 zone will be much more where I think most rational men will prefer 6'1 over 6'6 any day


@Rapha

Brahmim is very big
But he and most of the tallest people in world have a medical condition making them tall

It's more interesting to see someone where it's "natural" due to genetics.
Even the guys who are 6'10+ (think some 7'1-7'6 basketball players) who technically don't have a medical condition but have some gene mutation that was inherited
Remember that kid Robert Bobizcky (I'm too lazy now to look up last name but if you search 7'7 teen form Romania he'll come up)
He definitely has something going on but it's not gigantism or acromegaly. His dad was 7'0 zone
So sometimes abnormal height is passed through genes

@ oren metser - The giants are still rare and people are living longer. People shrink as they get older too.

Does it make sense that the overall average height in Israel and USA is still 1.75m or 5'9 for males and for young dudes(18-30) 5'9 and change (1.76m)? Why are the averages in these countries are still 5'9 , even containing the giants?

@5'10 Abdul

With that wingspan in ratio to your height, you have basically what they call 'T-Rex arms'. It's not usual, I think, but it does exist. The boxer Rocky Marciano had T-Rex arms.

Hey rob thanks for guessing the Shortland st actor that I asked u to guess, sorry here’s the last of the last for the guy. It’s just im convinced from this video he’s more so 185-6 cm then say 183 cm.

How tall is Dele alli in your opinion?

He once stated himself 1.90m or basically 6'3, but he is listed 1.88m or 6'2. Which of the 2 is more plausible- the former the latter or the middle ground (1.89m 6'2.5)?

@Rapha . I don't know from what reason, but my shrinkage in a span of 9 hours I only shrink about a 1/4 of an inch. About 1-1.5 hours out of bed I measure just over 1.82m (1.822m or 5'11.75).I measured about 10 hours out of bed 1.815m or 5'11.5 after having driven a car, swum at the beach and run at the gym for 30-40 minutes.


Does that shrinkage make sense? In a span of 10 hours, I thought I might've shrunk by a whole cm. My question to Rob is:

How many hours out of bed do I measure 1.82m or 5'11 and 2/3 on the dot? Thanks in advance .


@ Rapha my evening height is 1.815m or 5'11.5 9-10 hours out of bed.
@Rapha FYI I measure 1-1.5 hours out of bed 1.822m .


the question was :how many hours would I need to shrink to 182 cm?

@Oren. I would say that in a span of 3 to 4 hours after waking up You should shrink to 182 cm. Well you need to consider that you are very likely to shrink a full 1 cm after 1 to 1.5 hours being awake. In the first hour of waking up, thats where you lose a lot of height. If you would measure urself directly out of bed, you should measure 183 to 183.5 cm.
Then it would make more sense, you would shrink 1.5 to 2 cm in one day which is in the average zone of height loss during the day. You should make the experiment of measuring yourself directly out of bed.

Jdubbz said on 15/May/23
@Alex 6'0:

Yeah, pretty much. I actually got curious after posting that comment and decided to measure my out of bed and evening height for the first time in half a year, I got 6'7 1/8" out of bed (6.5 hours of sleep) and right between 6'6.25 and 6'6 3/8" at my low. Granted it was a pretty relaxed day, so normally I'd be down to 6'6.25". My morning height seems to fluctuate a bit day to day, but evening is generally pretty stable.

6'10 is extremely tall. Guy at my gym is about that. Worst 6'9.5. Borderline giant but as tall as he is its not freakish tall. Like you guys say a giant is someone you say omg how is he that tall. Based on that we're talking easily over 7'0. 7'2-7'4 at least

When I look at height on a wall, I do think 7 ft is really where it starts to get mind bogglingly tall. I can see how how people could be up to 6 ft 11 but 7 ft, certainly 7 ft 2 is that height where it almost seems impossible to imagine how somebody could be that big. But I do think around 6 ft 10 is the sort of range where you could really start to call it giant.


Saw a guy at a barbecue last night who claimed “6ft8” and he looked rather towering but not a giant

oren metser said on 14/May/23
@bmb thanks. I got that solved. Seems about right. I'd also like to hear Rob's opinion.
Just to settle once and for all;

@Rapha- FYI- I measure 1.815m (5'11.5) at 18:30 9-10 hours out of bed .So ya that's my evening mark , after some exercise. Last time I checked That was my evening measurement after a strenuous workout, during which I ran for 30-40 minutes, as well as after having driven a car.

1.822m(5'11.75)-my morning height an hour or an hour and a half out of bed, after 7.5 or almost 8 hours of sleeping.

I'm asking Rob- how many hours would it take me to shrink to 182cm exactly , according to my details?

ConnorTheDragon said on 13/May/23
If you were an athlete you'd be listed as 5'9 (174cm). Also I'm exactly an inch taller than you.

oren metser said on 13/May/23
@Rapha ya that's what I was trying to ask..

I was asking @Rob Paul the following: I measured on a given day an hour or an hour and a half 1.822m or 5'11 and 3/4.

On a different occasion, I got 1.815m or 5'11.5 9-10 hours out of bed (18:30) after having gone to a workout, a run and having driven the same day.

How many hours after bed does it take me to shrink to exactly to 182cm? Thanks,keep walking tall!

@Oren I am not sure what you meant with your question but if the question was how many hours you would need to shrink to 182 cm. There you have ir, 1 1.5 hours after coming out of bed you will measure 182 cm. Is 181.5 cm your evening height?

Over 6 ft 8 barefoot at the end of the day would be a very extraordinary height and arguably a giant as the tallest guys in any town typically aren't much more than 6 ft 7. But I've long said nearer 6 ft 10 is where it really starts to look like a proper giant. John Isner at 6'9.75 is just about at that height I think where it really looks like it. 6'5.5 - 6 ft 9.5 probably what you could call the "extremely tall" range. I personally wouldn't want to be anything over 6 ft 5 barefoot. A solid 6 ft 4 would be a good height if you have a good build like a Momoa or Dolph.

I go with 187 cm because i believe it is a fair and reasonable average of what i measure during most of the day.

Hello Rob, I'm 28 years old and just starting acting school here in scotland, turns out age isn't an issue. many 21-35 year old mature starters, but I have one issue.

I'm 5'8. Do you think this will affect me in the acting world? i'm always reading about actors heights here and sometimes it does depress me that my height could ruin any potential opportunities i could have in such a tough industry. I'm wondering what you think and may have learned studying other actors heights etc and if it does affect them and any advice? Thank you!

I’m over 200cm out of bed. I haven’t measured my out of bed height at all this year, but last I checked I was a few mm over 201cm at my highest. 200cm is about what I measure 2-3 hours out of bed. Evening lowest height is 198.8-9cm (I measure in imperial so about 6’6.3), so I think it’s fair to claim 199. What are you out of bed and at your lowest?

Yes 6'10" is far from a normal tall height. Guy from work was measured 209-210 cm and they even had to refurbish a car just for him. Special made workboots and clothes as well. I wouldn't say he is a giant but he is close.

Jdubbz said on 9/May/23
@Rapha

Yes Rapha, you said it perfectly. Seeing a giant should shock you, assuming you aren't a giant yourself. I have never seen a 225 to 230cm person in real life, but such a person would absolutely qualify as a giant. The tallest I have ever seen was in the 216 - 219cm range (if I estimated correctly), and he seemed like a giant to me at the time.

I think a true giant will dwarf even a very tall guy like me. In public, he would almost appear to be a different species. There is a video of Sun Ming Ming (7'9/235cm I believe) in an American airport, and he just dwarfs every single person he comes across. He looks like a different species of human almost because of how much he stands out. The same would apply to someone like Yao Ming or Shawn Bradley who are a bit shorter but still in that 7.5 foot range. Olivier Richters, though "only" 218cm, gives a similar impression just because of how wide and proportional he is. I don't think an extremely lanky stick thin 7'2 guy would strike me as a giant.

206 - 212cm guys, from my perspective, are clearly taller than me but do not necessarily dwarf me. It's like the difference between me and someone of your height. You'd think I was very tall, but I wouldn't tower over you to the point that you were shocked or anything like that.

Those 6'9-7'0 guys stand out a ton in public, but they don't give that "wtf" impression like a true giant. It's a huge difference.

Of course sir, all I ask is that you show me your international height inspector card so I can apologize.

Seriously now.
6ft0 1/4 - 1/2 still makes him a 184cm guy, particularly myself would claim 6ft 1/2, it's kind of weird to explain but for example I sometimes say I'm a strong 5ft11 but I claim 5ftt11.25.
It's kind of subjective terms like strong, solid, etc.
Maybe I expressed myself badly, but he is indeed a 184cm guy.

Rapha said on 9/May/23
@Jdubbz

I agree that 6"10 to 7 is a category between extremely tall and giant height.

There are only a few real giants in the world and I personally have only encountered one of them which was in my estimations around 225 to 230 cm tall now that is a giant.

When you encounter a giant, you should just be shocked the first moment by his height and you should ask yourself wow how is it possible to be that tall? I think that is an indicator. You do not get that reaction by a guy who is 205 cm tall or even 210 cm.

Yes, I know Giant Gonzalez and yeah he was a true Giant. Guys like Shawn Bradley or Yao Ming are also in that category. So, I would make the cut at 215 cm. Over 215 cm could be considered a giant. Guys like Richard Kiel or Kareem Abdul Jabbar are around 217 or 218 cm tall. I would classify them in the giant category.

Not sure if I would do the same with guys such as Dirk Nowtzki or Nikolai Valuev at around 212 cm.

What is your opinion?

Blackphoenix said on 9/May/23
Hey rob , if someone has morning height of 5'10.5" and evening height of 5'9.75" would you put him on bang on 5'10"?
I am currently 5'10 1/8" out of bed and 5'9 3/8" at my low , i want to be 5'10" bad maybe I can grow about 0.8-1cm ?
I am 18.5 btw , I have grown a little bit in recent times, lacto-ovo-vegetarian so probably started puberty a little later than meat eaters.

Jdubbz said on 9/May/23
@Rapha:

Yep, at 187cm you are solid tall, so it makes no sense for a height only 6cm taller than yours to be considered a giant. At 199cm I consider myself to be in the very tall category, maybe on the upper end of it. I think extremely tall starts at 200cm minimum or perhaps even higher like 202 or 203cm. Tyson Fury and Hafthor Bjornsson are good examples of extremely tall men.

Giant is something else entirely - I think you have to be well into the 7 foot range for that label. When I think of an actual giant, I think of Olivier Richters or the wrestler Giant Gonzales, 7'2 and 7'7 respectively. It's not even their height alone, but also their overall size that contributes to that perception.

Personally I think there should be a category between extremely tall and giant to describe 6'10 - 7'0 men. Super tall or something like that. Not quite legit giants IMO, but taller than "just" extremely tall.

I fully agree 6'4 is a very tall height. Giant is not the same thing as very tall. In a country with a 177cm average, 6'4 is around the 98.4th percentile. That means roughly 1/60 to 1/70 guys are 6'4 or taller. Do you really consider 1/60 guys to be legit giants? You said it yourself, at 6'1 you're above average in height. Do you really go from above average to giant in 3 measly inches? Nope. A 6'4 guy wouldn't even be able to see above your head. That's no giant.

Giants are very very rare, and 6'4 is not rare at all. Uncommon, not rare. I think you're using the term "giant" way too loosely here. Think about the Wrestler Giant Gonzales. Was he 6'4? hell no, he was 7'7. That's a giant's height. Calling a 6'4 guy a giant is like calling a 5'4 guy a dwarf. It doesn't make any sense and it's way too extreme of a term for a height only 6 inches above average.

@Jdubbz. I totally agree with you. I am 187 cm tall and consider myself tall but not extraordinary tall. A 193 cm is only 6 cm taller than me and certainly very tall once you reach above 190 cm but certainly not a giant. I would not even call 193 cm extremely tall just very tall. Extremely tall would be guys such as Tyson Fury at 202 cm but even his height is not a giant height only an extremely tall height.

Holy crap, that's a huge wingspan for your height. Yeah you can certainly grow into your wingspan especially at only 15. I was exactly your height at age 15 and I ended up 5" taller. No matter what your wingspan will probably always be longer than your height, but not by 7 inches.

If you think being 7.5" above average is a giant then fair enough, we'll just have to agree to disagree. Maybe I'm a bit biased since I'm over 2" taller than 6'4, but nobody considers me a giant either as far as I know.

Yeah, at your height it's not easy to tell whether a guy is 7'2 or 7'1 or 7'3. Even I can't tell exactly how tall a guy like that is. All I can do is go off of facial proportions (if I'm eye level with his shoulders and as tall as his mouth level, he's approx 8" taller than me), but I have no idea how that would work for a 14" difference lol

Jdubzz, several years ago in nyc i met a guy who claimed 7'2. Was he actually 7'2 not certain but likely. That tall its too hard to guess. Totally towered. I should took pic with him. Definitely a giant he was

Henrik said on 6/May/23
The website I looked at said that giant legally started at 220cm and then translated it to 7ft but that's inaccurate. 7ft is 213cm and 220cm would be 7ft 2.

@Darksol64

"Especially surprised you feel that way as a 186 guy. I'm like 187.5 and I'm literally only looking up a little bit to be eye to eye with a 6'4 guy."

To be fair, 187.5 to 193cm is a pretty noticeable difference. Over 2 inches. In my opinion they're in two different categories, solid tall vs lower end of very tall. I completely agree with everything else you said though, especially regarding giants. Even 7'0 is too low of a cutoff in my book. I think the minimum height for a true "giant" is around 220cm, which is just over 7'2 IIRC.

7'2 would qualify too, but I just like round numbers. Look at the Dutch giant, who is around 7'2. He just dwarfs everyone he comes across (other than that one pic where he is standing next to two 8 footers). I've seen multiple 6'9 - 6'11 guys before and a single 7'2-3 guy. The guy over 7 foot left a TOTALLY different impression on me than the sub 7 footers. Night and day difference.

Henrik said on 6/May/23
Giant would start at 7ft or something like that. Yup, I just looked it up quickly and that seems to the legal definition of the term.

@ Tawehret

6'4 Giant? Nah man....I mean maybe in the shortest countries in the world or something, but in 99% of the world not even close to giant.

Especially surprised you feel that way as a 186 guy. I'm like 187.5 and I'm literally only looking up a little bit to be eye to eye with a 6'4 guy.

Definitely in the very tall zone but no giant. For most of the world giant would start at 6'10 minimum in my opinion. Although 7'2 guys make the best true giants.

Alex 6'0 said on 5/May/23
Jdubzz, yea I'm typically solid 6'1 range in my sneakers but if morning in shoes definitely nearer 6'2 which would be the listing. Recently 6'1.25 in sneakers in the afternoon

Yeah that's what I assumed. East Asians have the shortest limbs relative to their heights while Africans have the longest. Caucasians are typically somewhere in the middle.

To me if you’re 6’3 you’re extremely tall and 6’4 is in that giant catergory. This is coming from a guy who’s 186 cm, tall is an understatement for those heights

What country do you live in? 6'4 is miles away from "giant" in the Western world.

@Jdubbz

Body build varies but generally East Asians and Caucasians have long trunks in comparison to West Africans. East Asians characteristically have especially short forearms and lower legs while West Africans on the contrary can sometimes have long forearms.

A good illustration of this is John Carpenter's movie They Live! with Roddy Piper and Keith David. Piper and David were roughly the same height and David's longer legs made him appear at least a solid 6ft 4 on occasion.

Rapha said on 5/May/23
My standards for categorization for tall in western countries is as follow: 183 cm to 190 cm tall;
191 cm to 200 cm very tall
201 cm to 209 cm extremely tall
210 cm and above giant

Now those standards can change depending on the location: i could easily believe that a 180 cm man can be considered very tall in south east asia and a 190 cm man as as extremely tall or almost giant stature over there.

Yeah I think I know what video you're talking about. That's where he compares height with another very similar (6'8 I think) streamer right? 6'8 barefoot I can definitely believe. I doubt that's his low/evening height, but he definitely measures it a few hours out of bed.

Hafthor claimed recently that the 6'9 was back when he played ball, so in shoes. He said he is 6'8" barefoot. Can't remember which influencer he was talking with but its a very recent one on youtube.

@Henrik:

Very interesting. I know a few people irl with a wingpsan 5 - 7 inches greater than their height (one has a wingspan half an inch longer than mine despite being 4 inches shorter than me) and they are all black. I never noticed the correlation until now.

Would you see the reverse situation for asians? From what I can tell, they tend to have (proportionally) the biggest heads, longest torsos, and shortest limbs of any race. Pretty much the polar opposite of black people in terms of proportions.

Alex 6'0 said on 2/May/23
Jdubzz, theres some extremely tall guys who could think they're taller than they really are but yea usually they're correct or within a fraction. College basketball typically you get listed at least an inch taller than you measure right?

Yea there are definitely very tall guys who lie about being even taller (Ike Catcher, 6'7 or 6'7.5 saying he's 6'9, Hafthor Bjornsson 6'7 3/4 saying he's 6'9, etc.) but generally it seems to be less common than being honest.

I'm not sure how it is now given that even the NBA is starting to be honest about player heights, but typically the rule of thumb for college basketball is (or maybe was) shoe height rounded up, so more than an inch.

Basketball shoes are pretty thick as it is, so a guy your height would probably be listed at 6'2. I'd probably be listed at 6'8.

Jdubbz said on 3/May/23

Depends what you're doing, but for general life, probably around 6'4.

Hi Rob,
I watched your video where you showed that with the help of posture exercises you gained a few mm taller even though you were already an adult. In your opinion, is it possible to achieve even better results by stretching the joints and spine with daily repeated yoga exercises, hanging on the bar?

It's rare for a 6'7 guy to be lying (other than rounding up), so someone who claims that height usually is that tall. Main exceptions are basketball players and wrestlers.

After a certain height there is really no benefit to being taller, so there is no incentive to lie.


Which certain height would that be that there would be no benefit to being taller?

Rob, are you sure that on average a person can shrink further than 1-1.5cm or 1/2 inches throughout the day?

I heard once it is , in the vast majority of cases the maximum one can shrink daily. Typically,on a regular day one drops by 1-1.5cm.

Do you claim that shrinkage may vary every now and then to even almost an entire inch(2cm), depending on the intensity of the activities?

I heard some shrinking a full inch daily? Can you subscribe to this statement? Thank you dear Rob.

6'7 start of extremely tall you could say. Guy at my gym whos minimum 6'9.5 and hes got muscle and size. Not slim. He could be considered a giant i think.

@Alex. 6.9.5 That’s the lowest height I would argue for a giant. Usually, the start of Giant for me would be 210 cm and not under it so that should be around 6’11.

Henrik said on 1/May/23
People of British Isles and Scandinavian descent on average have a wingspan that is 102-103 percent longer than their height (so roughly 1-2 inches longer). Irish people and Eastern Europeans on average have a 105+ percent longer reach.

You will more often find very long arms among African-Americans and black people e.g. Neil deGrasse Tyson is 6ft 2 with a 7ft wingspan. Although not all black people have a 'freakish' wingspan (as the NBA calls it) i.e. a reach exceeding their height 108 percent or more.

Rob, this is an unrelated comment but I'm adding it here so that it catches your eye as it's a recent post. Can you provide your verdict on Melissa Fumero's husband David Fumero's height. It's a huge puzzle for me. Hes listed at 5'11" on google(not true ofc). Surprisingly in his footwear pictures he can look atleast two inches taller than Melissa in heels but in a barefoot picture I saw of him and Melissa together on her Instagram the difference seems to very small! Maybe around an inch! Moreover he featured at the end of Mariah Carey's music video "Honey" 25 years ago and even then he was very close to Mariah in height! His height range is truly absurd. My honest guess for him would be between 5'8"-5'9". I think he's a strong lift wearer. Otherwise I'm really confused!

Editor Rob
The balance between head size and body length might make 6ft 1-2 an ideal. But if you have a longer (or shorter) head, then it might effect things.

@Rob. I agree with you and i also realized that very slim men that have a longer head might appear taller than they are. I came to know a few guys that were in the 185-190 cm range and looked very tall ( possibly close to 195cm) .

6’7 could be considered extremely tall but definitely not a giant. Giant is at least 6’10, and those guys are very noticeably bigger than very tall or extremely tall 6’5-6’8 guys. They give a much different impression, especially if they’re built proportionally.

Hey Rob. If I very roughly measure about 171 cm 13 hours out of bed on a lazy day at home would you consider me closer to 5'7.5 or 5'7.25? I have admittedly also recently measured 173-174 cm in adidas samba maybe 8 hours or so out of bed

Similarly back in March 2022 I measured a bit over 168 cm 14 hours out of bed at home but also measured 171.5-172 cm in air maxes. Would you say I still could've been closer to 5'6.5 than 5'6.25?

@James B 172cm
The tallest guy I know has to be about 6ft 8. Even though he claims 6ft 10, I am expecting 6ft 10 to a bit greater in person, which is pretty much why I was bonking his height down a couple notches. Though seems like a nice guy. Then the other day several months ago. A guy in my area who I frequently see, I'm guessing maybe 6ft 7. Though from afar on the sidewalk when I was walking towards his direction and he was walking towards mine, he could be anything, 6ft, 6ft 1, 6ft 2, so of course I wouldn't care much. That was until the moment when he was at least 20ft away from me, that was when I noticed how huge he was. Saw him again, at my local Subway when the floor is leveled, his height was quite a sight to behold I can say that much. But other than that, I don't remember much If I've seen any others that are at least 2m tall. Once in a while, I do see some guys that are at least 6ft 5. Which without careful precision, I would've mistaken them as 6ft 7.
