Hi Rob, how much extra height do you think is possible from super high shoes, that are shown to be 8 or 7 inches please? Would over 6 inches or even more extra height be possible do you think?! Thanks

Hey Rob, if I get up at 8:30 in the morning and measure my height at 11:30 or 12:00, maybe it's fair to bill me at that height? ie 3-4 hours after waking up. thanks.

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! 😁
Editor Rob
Not looked yet
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

Would it be an error if someone was measured taller on a stadiometer?
Editor Rob
Human error like misreading the figure is possible, and maybe in rare cases the stadiometer (if wall attached) could cause an issue.
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.
Alanna said on 21/May/23

I would make the cut at 215 cm for a giant. Everything above it is giant territory everything under it is extremely tall but not giant territory.

6'6 start of a giant? No way. Very tall man but not a giant. If i seen jdubzz whos a bit over 6'6 id think this guy pretty tall but not a giant. Giants typically will tower Very tall guys
avi said on 19/May/23
@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!
Thank you

It will probably look an inch (from eyelevel perspective)...just depends if you are in 0.5 max shoes or not.

Editor Rob
The lighter pink heel might have a slight edge, but both should be getting her to 6ft range, so she might look a bit taller than yourself if you're wearing 0.5-0.75 shoes. If her eyelevel is higher, then the difference will feel greater.

@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

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

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.

@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.
MR12 said on 14/May/23
Rob what is your absolute lowest height
Editor Rob
Pretty much typical low, after a hard working session is still 5ft 8 1/8th in recent years. To get an extreme would need something like a full day hiking and being more dehydrated, probably going to be 5ft 8 exactly then.

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!
Editor Rob
Possibly 4-5 hours out of bed you could be 182 on the nose. Worth checking a few measurements during the day to figure it out.

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.

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?

Hi, Rob. I wanted to ask something. Does feet growth affect your height? Like if someone had 24 cm long foot and if it grew to 27 cm. Does he get taller as well?
Editor Rob
Feet might continue a little longer like to 20 or so.

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.

That’s right . True giants sre very rare. A friend of mine met at an attraction parc the second tallest person in the world. His name is Brahim Takioullah and he stands at 246 cm tall. My friend was shocked by his height. Just imagine , even a 2 meters person is 46 cm shorter than him.
Btw.. do you measure 200 cm out of bed ? and what is your lowest evening height?

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
Alex 6'0 said on 9/May/23
Jdubzz, agreed totally. Its way easier to estimate guys downwards than upwards.
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.

hello rob I have a question. I woke up at 11:00 today and measured my height as 173.6-173.7 at 15.30, and at night I am at least 173. What height do you bill me as?
Editor Rob
That's not much shrinkage. 173cm is what I'd go with, a decent 5ft 8 like myself!

@Tallishguy
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.

@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.
Editor Rob
It's a fair listing for them...
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

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.

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.

@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.

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.

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.

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.

@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.

Height can be distributed on the bell curve, but sometimes there's variations along it...
However, I think people probably remember the taller 6ft 4 men more than the 5ft 2 range men, so could believe there are a lot more 6ft 4 guys walking about.
I've seen a lot of 5ft 2-3 guys around my town.

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
I'd have guessed in 5ft 10 range, but really haven't seen much of him.

Hi Rob
The shortest person in the world is an Iranian man that stands at only 65 cm.
What would you guess is his daily shrinkage?
Editor Rob
Probably a 1/4 inch.

Hi Rob
What would be the most visual good looking height for a man?
I would say between 183 and 190 cm.
Would you agree?
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) .
James B 5ft8 said on 27/Apr/23

Is that 3 cm difference, Rob?
Editor Rob
Looks less, although you appear a bit further away which might be the reason.
Jdubbz said on 23/Apr/23
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?
I'm trying to understand where the line ends for these weird american ways of describing height
Editor Rob
Would be fine going with 5ft 7.5 as a claim.
You were probably between5ft 6.25-6.5 a year ago.

Hey Rob, ignore my previous question, it wasn't properly explained.
I have a cousin who has recently hit puberty, and has pretty much reached my mark (5'11.5 or fractionally shorter than 6 ft tall - 1.82m ) . Beforehand, bone growth examiners had suggested he could grow another 3-4 inches to grow (7-10cm) . May that be possible him reaching to around 6'3 range?
Editor Rob
Sounds plausible. Will be interesting for you to see if he really gains another 3 inches!

Rob i remember in school when we would have a class photo a lot of my friends who i thought were my height turned out to be a few inches taller than me when we lined up from tallest to shortest.

@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.

I think he claims shoes though? I mean he measured a few guys and tried to say their height in shoes. Chris corrected him and said he was 6'0" not 6'1" because of footwear. I just thought Jesse could be an add as he took his shoes off and let Eric measure him.

I'm now living in Australia as you can see from my IP address and surprisingly at 6'2.5", barely saw couple of guys taller than me so far in the 2 weeks+ I've been here.... 1 in the airport and 1 in the CBD area.
But then I'm living in a small town with a population of only around 10,000. The average height of 5'9 and change seems about correct.

With 10,000 population there should be a small proportion taller, I'm sure with time you'll see some more big guys!

He got Eddie last month at 6'2.5" in shoes and Calum Von Moger at 6'3" in shoes. He also measured Jesse James West at 5'9.5" in socks ( he claims 5'10"). Maybe worth an add? He has 2.6 million subs on Youtube.

I claim 5’11 and feel as that’s an honest claim, though “slightly over 5’11” hasn’t slipped my mind. Would 5’10 3/4 be a more honest claim?

If she were 173cm, it's really needing a platformed heel with 1.25-1.5 inches in the front and a decently high angle to get the same height.

Do cardio on stationary bike (elliptical) without causing knee or ankle pressure, walk around long distances outdoors, without looking suspicious, indoor use while looking casual. That's it

I don't know the quality of the ones on the previous page, but some of them look reasonable (the fabric/mesh style) for the purposes you want.
But I can't really recommend any without trying.
Footwear fits different. One person might find their Air Jordan One fit well, whilst a good proportion might want to bin them after a week of attempting to 'break em in'.

Sup Rob, long time no see
Could you to help me out, I'm going to buy 2 pairs of elevator shoes which ones look the most inconspicuous? One for indoors and one for wearing to college and outdoors, my gait shouldn't be weird or affected too much. Inconspicuous and comfortable long term is the priority. Since it has a curved midsole rather than elevated heel from shoe lifts I don't think it should be bad for your knees or anything like that
I'm thinking..
Indoors, these tennis shoes type:
Click Here the navy blue colour
Outdoors:
Click Here (looks good but has an obvious heel) or
Click Here (looks bland but inconspicuous) or
Click Here (the black one looks cool and just looks like a normal sports shoe)
What do you think? Also 2.75 inch or 3.1 inch if I want to appear 1.5-2 inches taller compared to normal accounting for any shrinkage? Remember I'm talking almost daily use. Thanks
Editor Rob
Personally if I were wearing them, the blue suede type looked fine. The black boot I wasn't keen on.
The American football style shoe is probably the sturdiest and could get the most height, because the heel already is a decent thickness.
With the black boot and brown/white tennis shoe, they might not give as much height as you expect (or advertised) because the heel section is thinner to start off with.

There are loads of red foxes round our way, but I’d have to travel up north to see a black fox, and even they have white tips at the end of their tails. It was fascinating to see these tiny foxes, and I am wondering when they will change to red.

Hey Rob, I think you said on YouTube that old video cassette (VHS) boxes are good objects to use for measurement and on par with stadiometers. When I use a VHS box, I think I get about 0.5cm less than when I use an old computer software/game big box. I'm not sure if the VHS box is fully reaching the very top of my head. Do you think the big box might be overmeasuring? I feel like it *should* be more accurate but I'm not the expert with access to a stadiometer. 🤔
The big box gave 187.8-9cm, the VHS box 187.3-5cm (yeah, it did fluctuate a little between measurements).
I believe I did measure precisely 188cm on the dot at noon, 4-5 hours after being up, the last time I was measured under a stadiometer which was quite a few years ago (so there may be a lapse in the memory, I guess).

the actual video cassette itself is perfectly fine as it's solid. Its just over 7.25 inches long for a VHS so as long as your nose is pretty close to the wall it will hit the high spot.

Rob, do you agree with the notion that tallness/ shortness both begin around 2 inches above/ under the standard deviation from average?
Editor Rob
That might be the limit.

Can you even get "banned" from this site? We don't have user logins here. Other than Rob not approving posts coming from your IP address, I suppose. You'd have to use a way to block access to the site in your browser.
Editor Rob
You can have your isp blocked. It's rare though and never lasts.

Hey Rob, just to get an accurate and specific final listing on this website. What would've been my measurement on this page(just reminding you our previous conversations that I'm the guy who measured 181.5cm or 5'11.5 at 18:30 , after having wokenup around 8:10). The previous night I went to bed at like 00:30.
Moreover, On to same day I drove to the beach back and forth each time about 20 minutes or half and hour, swam for approximately 40 minutes. Later on I ran for 35 minutes at the gym, drove my car to take my grandparents' home , back and forth for about 40 minutes.
On a different occasion I measured just over 1.82m (182.1-182.2cm 5'11.75 to be precise, about an hour out of bed).
Having done these two measurements and the activities , what would be my final specific listing in your opinion? 5'11 1/2 5'11 2/3 or 5'11 3/4?
Editor Rob
5ft 11.75 would be a realistic listing

Hi Rob. I have in the last while been visiting your site many times per day, so I’d like to request to get a ban for a while. Maybe for a few months, because I am also starting to find the site bored too. So I want to take a break + getting a temporary ban.

Hi Rob, Jenny and all visitors,
I was on my way to the outside toilet when I noticed the two foxes who hang out together at the back. There were some dark grey little tiny animals with them and then I realised that they’ve had cubs! I’m very excited, having never seen foxes this small. I put some food out but Melazier ate it! I’ll have to make them some catfood sandwiches, as cats don’t tend to like bread…..
Have a happy week everyone! 🦊🦊💐🤗👌🏼 XXXXX
Editor Rob
That's great to see cubs. Strangely not seen as many foxes around our garden the last few months!

Rob, any ideas on French actor Mathieu Amalric? He is listed most places as 5’6” which seems legitimate.

Rob , how many cms would a ASICS gel lose , I checked my height other day and it increased it by 2 cm, so if I keep wearing them for another year would soles lose more ?
Editor Rob
That's going to vary amongst models. A lot of these sneakers can have hollow sections and lose a cm after a few years.
The gel pair I have, well I can't find them so haven't worn them much...but knowing the problem with sneakers and age, by the time I find them and wear them, they'll probably only last a few months!

7'0 is freakishly big
I'd say most girls will be turned off by thst unless they themselves are freakishly tall.
I think the tallest person I ever saw was 6'10 area
Definitely no one over 7'0
As Rob says if you go to an airport or bigger city statistically you will see some 6'7-6'9 guys and rarely a 6'11-7'1 guy will pop up.
They say there are only a few thousand 7'0+ people
I think the number must be 3,000-4,000 especially since a lot will have some medical condition.

Can you add Jim Nabors and Bob Crane one day?
They are famous sitcom actors
Jim Nabors played Gomer Pyle in Gomer Pyle USMC show which is a spin off from Andy Griffith show. He was also I'm the earlier Andy Griffith episodes before Gomer Pyle.
He is listed as 6'0 and 6'1
I think
Here is a video with Don Knotts and Andy Griffith:
Click Here
You can see Nabors is almost an inch taller than weak 6'0 Andy Griffith (possibly closer to 5'11.5)
And he is 5-5.5 inches taller than Knotts
I think 6'0.5 or 6'0.75 is fair for Nabors.
Bob Crane was in Hogan's heroes
He is listed at 5'10 which seems fair

Hiya Rob, some measured a lot of times standing tall same stance for an hour and lost 9mm all together down to a unusual low, but kept fluctuating up and down 3mm between measurements near the end at night. Would their true height listed on here be 3mm more than the lowest measurement? Thanks again.
Editor Rob
I'd typically say a 1/4 inch over lowest evening is a fair listing.
Also repeated measurements over a short period might cause some fatigue and lose you height quicker. Maybe the strain on the back?

Hi Rob, how is 181cm guy viewed in Scotland, amongst the general population?
Editor Rob
Tallish to many.
Jessie Pinkman said on 31/Mar/23
Rob, do you think lifting your heels for multiple reps once a week can shrink you taller? I do stretches and i read that this can be harmful in the future
Editor Rob
I doubt it...always good to keep up a stretching routine.

I saw a guy 7feet or taller once out with his girlfriend in public. She looked embarrassed
Jdubbz said on 30/Mar/23
@big kid:
More like a 6'5.5 - 6'6 woman, but I agree that's still super rare. I've seen one man taller than 7 foot, but never a 6'6+ woman.

Hi rob, thank you! Do you think pairs like these, because of the platforms, could give up to, or over 5 inches please? Thanks

@Rob Hi. How tall do you think the guy on the right is? I believe I was 5ft 9 3/8" at the time, So about 5ft 9.5in. So 6ft 3? 6ft 3.5?
Click Here
Editor Rob
Could imagine almost 6 inches between them.
big kid said on 29/Mar/23
I never seen a 7 feet tall man in person my life. A 7 foot guy is equivalent to a 6’6.5 female which I never seen either

Hey Rob, what’s the average growth rate per year for males during puberty ?
