How tall is Rob Paul

Rob Paul's Height

5ft 8 ⅛ (173 cm)

I created CelebHeights.com in 2004 as an entertainment site about Celebrity Height. I measure 5ft 8 ⅛in at night, which is usually about the height I am in most photos with celebrities. In 2019, first thing in the morning, I measure around 5ft 8 ⅞in. For some height-related videos check out my Youtube channel. As of January 2023 I measure close to 5ft 8.25 (173.3cm) at lunchtime and in this Video you can see my current weight.

Rob...there was one commenter using your video about this who said he measured shorter laying down
Editor Rob
I wonder if there's a bit more curvature in the back for some people if they lie down for a measurement.

So If I Measure At 6'2¾ Out Of Bed And 6'1¾-6'2 Before Bed Would I Be 6'2¼ Or 6'2½ Big Rob
Editor Rob
6ft 2.25 would be a fine figure to go with.

Hi Rob,
I am requesting a page for actor Andrew J. West. He's known for roles like Gareth on The Walking Dead and Henry Mills on Once Upon A Time. His wife, Amber Stevens West is 5 ft 9 in and I would say he's taller than her by about 2 inches so 5 ft 11 in range would make sense for him. Let me know what you think.

with Once Upon a Time cast Click Here
Editor Rob
Yeah, for some reason I assumed he was already on here!
Andrea said on 17/May/25
As far as Italian actors go (in this case, actresses), what about a page for Benedetta Porcaroli too, Rob?
She, too, has been in many movies (including an international one last year, with Sydney Sweeney) and series (especially on Netflix, like Baby and recently The Leopard)... I don't have a precise guess at the moment, but I definitely wouldn't go over or under 5'5-5'6, from all I've seen.
Editor Rob
From a first look, I would go with near 5ft 6.
viper said on 16/May/25
Rob, Ive remeasured myself on carpet laying down and I get 6-2.5 at most..over a half inch shorter than standing.

My spine isn't totally straight from X-rays. Could that have something to do with it?
Editor Rob
I can't explain how you've undermeasured lying down.

Copy this link and open in website and please tell how tall do you think the far left person is. He is being measured as 165-166 cm in tape measure still I want to know your perspective. Thank you
Editor Rob
He looks taller because of the people to the right being quite short in comparison.
Goal170s said on 15/May/25
Hi Rob,

I’m 176.3 cm in the morning and 174.6 cm at night. Would you consider me closer to 174 cm or 175 cm on average? Also, would I be considered short for a 27-year-old guy in the UK?
Editor Rob
I'd say with your stats, 175cm is a perfect claim. It's quite average in the UK.
Aheean Rahaman said on 15/May/25
Hey Rob, may I ask why you typically list evening height instead of morning height? Wouldn't it be more accurate to try to list morning height because that is basically a person's full height?
Editor Rob
If there was a universal rule to claiming and measuring your out of bed height, that would be fine...but in reality, very few people who get measured are ever done so at their highest height.

Connor, Katie Price gets "surgery" in Turkey, look how hot she used to look in the late 90s compared to today!

The best thing you can possibly do Connor for your life is start running outdoors every day, watch David Goggins and Cameron and Truett Hanes on YouTube for inspiration. Please just start watching them, Goggins especially, he's on Instagram too with a great channel!! You first need to break out of the mindset you've created for yourself, it is just a mindset after all, your perception of a problem, nobody else thinks you have to be 6 ft 8 to be impressive as a human being. Within a few weeks I guarantee you'll worry less about yourself and you'll learn to be more grateful for the legs you've got. Some disabled people would kill to have healthy legs. A lot of your cognitive ability comes from healthy leg arteries and function. I can see why you would feel happier being a few inches taller, but nobody needs to be 6 ft 8 to have a good life, most that height will say it is a curse in fact, and it's not as if surgery would make you turn into Kevin Nash. Get running Connor, just do it, make that your life focus and toughening your mindset every day instead, you can overcome your problem with some effort. It's a low self-esteem issue not a serious physical issue, likely stemming from being around your very tall stepdad.

@ Com

There's no exact science behind this that I am aware of, but I've heard if you deadlift modest weight properly without straining yourself it can actually straighten the spine and you might gain a tiny height just from that and the muscles in general being stronger holding you up better.

I swear I had this effect when I was deadlifting 130-150 pounds. No height loss over a decade later at now age 36. Proper lifting technique and not getting crazy with the weight is critical. Obviously at an athletic level, you will damage your spine as Rob said even those in their 20s probably have damage whether they feel pain from it yet or not. This is worse if you add steroids into the mix because even though your muscles get huge, the spine is not designed to handle that extra load. Getting your deadlift way up there in the 300-400+ pound range is a tremendous strain no two ways about it and you will lose height very early.

I've had X-rays on my back and my spine isn't completely straight

Canson, I do it myself next to a measuring tape
Andrea said on 14/May/25
How much do you think these shoes give, Rob? Click Here
Editor Rob
Looks a 2 inch boot.
Com said on 13/May/25
Rob, how much of deadlifting do you think increases height loss in the future? I am thinking of starting deadlift but since I’m not competing for anything I just want to lift to 150 lbs and just stay at that weight.
Editor Rob
I think it can raise the risk of injuries, which then contribute to disc degeneration (loss). But then, I remember reading a study of Olympic athletes (of all fields) and it found something like 60% had signs of disc degeneration in their 20's.
Rory said on 13/May/25
Rob, have you considered a page for the late Warren Clarke, lead in Dalziel and Pascoe and in Clockwork orange ? Seen a ridiculous 6ft1 listing for him and a much more reasonable 5ft10.5, but I think from all I've seen of him at his peak,I reckon 5ft10.25 could be fair.
Editor Rob
I did consider him but don't remember why I never added him! 5ft 11 isn't impossible, seems a guy who lost height in his late 40's.
Gerald S said on 13/May/25
Rob, I have a challenge for you to add American-Italian actor Al Lettieri (Sollozzo from The Godfather). Described as Little Al, but I’d say he was near 5’11” (far from little). Do you accept this challenge? I’m having trouble figuring this Sollozzo.

Hi Rob, here’s another photo of Yildiz, but this time compared with Modric, who on your site is listed as 5ft 6 ¾ (169.5 cm). In this photo, how tall do you think he appears next to Luka? Consider that he's wearing a pair of Nike slippers, and Modric seems to have a slight disadvantage.

Thanks, Rob for your help
Editor Rob
Considering the photo and him wearing sandals, he could be 7 inches taller.

Hi Rob,
Here's a photo of Fabregas and Yildiz. Since Fabregas is listed on your site as 5ft 9 ⅞ (177.5 cm), I was wondering how tall you think Yildiz might be next to him.

thanks
Editor Rob
Over 2, maybe near 2.5 inches.
Canson said on 12/May/25
@Viper: does someone else do the measuring?
Gerald S said on 12/May/25
Rob, I’m curious on how tall you believe British actress Liz Smith was. I think she needs a page, and was somewhere around 5’2”-5’2.5” prime.
Editor Rob
I'm not sure on her prime height. I know she claimed 5ft5 in Spotlight.
viper said on 11/May/25
Rob, for some reason I measure an inch shorter laying down. Doesn't make much sense
Editor Rob
I've never heard of that before!
Gerald S said on 11/May/25
Rob, is vintage English actor Richard Haydn eligible for a page on celebheights?

5’9.5” peak in 40s films like AND THEN THERE WERE NONE (1945). By THE SOUND OF MUSIC, he could have still been clearing 5’9”.
Editor Rob
Not sure on him.

Hi Rob,

Glad to see you back! Do you know on Twitter how you can search profiles for heights still it doesn’t seem to work like before?
Editor Rob
You can still use "search term from:twittername", however I don't think it works as well as it used to.
Com said on 10/May/25
Rob, how’s Jenny’s height today? Did she stabilize, gain or lose more height?
Editor Rob
Not measured her personally for many months, but she had a health checkup recently and was between 170 and 171 range at the Doctor's office, so her loss seems stabilized at the moment. I'm doing some basic exercising with her, so this help a bit.
reachjtm said on 10/May/25
rob what's your opinion on Stephen A.Smith's height? he looks 6'0 range to me give or take.
Editor Rob
Could be nearer 6ft than 6ft 1.
Gerald S said on 10/May/25
Rob, from the below video, I reckon we can add Jim in at 6’0.5”.

Click Here

A good half inch on Andy; potentially more (I think of Andy as a weak 6 footer).
YouYou90 said on 10/May/25
Mr. Rob, my height after waking up is 190.5 cm, after two hours of waking up it is 189.0 cm, after six hours my height is 188.3 cm, and before sleeping my height is 188.0 cm. In your opinion, how tall should I declare?
Editor Rob
I'd go with a 189cm claim.
fullduchess23 said on 9/May/25
rob after just over 7 hours I'm about 6ft ¾ in tall, in your opinion if I had measured myself 5 hours after waking up how tall would I have been? in my opinion it's better to tell everyone that I'm 6ft ¾ and not 6ft 1, do you agree?
Editor Rob
You might have been a couple of mm shy of a full 6ft 1. If you don't claim the full 6ft 1, 'almost' or 'about' 6ft 1 might be a suitable fit. I wouldn't worry about it because most folk are never going to question it - they'll see 5ft 11-6ft range guys claiming 6ft 1 regularly!
bmb said on 8/May/25
Rob, would you believe me if I told you one of my friends gained as much as half an inch when busting a gut?
Editor Rob
'Standing reasonably tall' versus busting a gut might add an additional fraction on average, but not half inch - that's a greater difference you'd expect.
Talmurid said on 8/May/25
Hello- could you evaluate youtuber C.S. Joseph? He claims 5'11. Thanks
Andrea said on 8/May/25
I don't know if you know him, Rob, but what about a page for Luca Marinelli?
Been in quite a few (good) movies in the last years, he recently rose to even more prominence for playing Mussolini in the series Mussolini: Son of the Century (which I suggest you to watch, even if I know you aren't much prone to foreign stuff)... Anyway, he gets listed at 180 on his agency, which I always thought he wasn't far off, although from having another look at him recently I can see him looking 5'10-5'11 at times, so maybe 179 could be closer than 180, but I doubt much less though. I'm sure he was taller than Charlize Theron in The Old Guard!
Editor Rob
179 could be a fair estimate to give him.
Gerald S said on 8/May/25
Rob, can you add American actor Jim Nabors?

Cleared 6ft without question, but not sold on a full 6’1”. 6’0.5” is my recommendation.
Editor Rob
I believe Jim had claimed 6ft.
bmb said on 8/May/25
@Rob I measured myself, turns out my average for evening is 5ft 9.375-9.5 range, and about 5ft 9.625 by lunch. What would you list that as?
Editor Rob
Would really depend on a few factors, but say you claimed 5ft 9.75....you might look close to it with other celebs and get that listing.
Jamss B said on 7/May/25
Rob have you read this?

“The largest chimpanzee subspecies, the Central chimpanzee, can reach a standing height of 5.2 feet (160 cm) for males and 4.3 feet (130 cm) for females. Some individuals may exceed these measurements, with some chimpanzees in captivity reported to stand over 168 cm (5 ft 6 in) and weigh up to 136 kg (300)”



Terrifying given how similar they are to us
Editor Rob
I wouldn't get into a fight with one!

Arch Stanton Unfortunately not yet, I'm probably going to have to go to Türkiye to have the leg lengthening surgery since the doctors here denied me it.
Andrea said on 7/May/25
Can you consider adding Will Sharpe and Fred Hechinger again, Rob?
Will I saw a while ago was listed at 5'11 on Spotlight, which is not too bad, although I still wouldn't go over 5'10-5'10.5 and if anything I can see how he can struggle to look even that in photos at times... As for Fred, I don't know what he claims, but from what I've seen I'd really rule out 5'6+ and say maybe a weak 5'6 in fact?
Editor Rob
Will being somewhere around 178 seems ok and I agree that Fred looks no more than 5ft 6.
James B 172cm said on 7/May/25
Rob what do you think an ideal body fat percentage is for good health?

I am thinking maybe 10-15 percent
Editor Rob
Near 15 plus or minus a few percent is within a good range.
Arch Stanton said on 7/May/25
Here's Goggins with Rogan Click Here

Maybe somewhere around 6'0.5-.75 for Goggins. With Israel Adesanya I don't think he looked over 6'0.5 if Adesanya is 6'2.75. But from what I seen I do think he is close to his claim, maybe genuinely 6 ft 1 in the morning.
Gerald S said on 7/May/25
Rob, can you add American actor Murray Hamilton?

The Hustler, The Graduate, Jaws- he was in some of the biggest motion pictures. When aged about 50, Scheider seemed to edge him, and Paul Newman had a good inch on him in The Drowning Pool. I shout 5’8.5” for Hamilton, not quite a 5’9” guy. He was actually described as “short” on an episode of The Streets of San Francisco.
Editor Rob
Outside in Jaws the ground might not have always been even, but they had a couple of scenes inside and reasonably close, but Roy overall could be taller.
fullduchess23 said on 7/May/25
After almost 13 hours of standing—with very little physical activity—I noticed that when I'm standing super straight, really tense and upright (almost unnaturally so), I measure over 185 cm. I’m nearly 6 ft 1.

Do you think it’s accurate to say I’m 185 cm tall when using the metric system? Or should I report a different number? Of course, when I’m not standing that straight—especially after 13 hours—I drop below 185.
Editor Rob
Yeah, I think it's fair to just go with 6ft 1.
Sam83 said on 7/May/25
Thanks Rob, that’s good to know- an extra 6.8 inches would have put me even further from her height! I tried to persuade her to go for a lower par than the 6.8, so that maybe I still had a chance of being the taller sibling! But if you think they’ll get her to around 6’1, then if my shoes don’t add a lot then I don’t think I have chance!

I’m sure there are others who have been overtaken by siblings wearing super high shoes before!
bmb said on 6/May/25
@Rob Would you say a long period of physical activity + hour rest on the couch would be pretty fair to get measured?
Editor Rob
Your body might recover a few mm, so it's fair enough to take a measurement afterwards. There were some occasions in the past when I checked my height after dinner and sitting down on the sofa, where I'd regain a few mm from the 5pm measurement.
Sam83 said on 6/May/25
Thank you, adding makes quite a lot of difference when you’re used to someone being shorter or similar height! I’m interstellar to see how we will compare when the shoes arrive. She decided to go for the first pair (6.8 inch heel and 2.5 inch platform) so that she can gain as much height as possible! I hadn’t realised they were 6.8 inches!! With this pair, would even the full 6 inches extra height be possible do you think?

I guess either way, I certainly have no chance of still being the taller one when we go out then..!!
Editor Rob
They're advertised as 6.8, because of the measurement at the highest point of the heel...of course they won't give that much actual height.
Andrea said on 6/May/25
Did you the change the ads system or something, Rob?
No offence, but it's quite annoying (especially on the smartphone)... at least I hope that's gonna make you make big money! 😬
Editor Rob
Yes, I switched on autoads from Google to see the difference between normal (few ads) and lots of ads.
Yeah I know it's annoying, but the site revenue was HALVED by Google over the last year :(
Arch Stanton said on 6/May/25
Good to see Rob and some people back. As Richard Madely would say "Welcome back!" I wonder if the big C got his 8 inch leg surgery afterwards. :-)

Surprised David Goggins is still missing, he has a big following, always mentioned on Rogan. Claims 6 ft 1. Looks near it, but I thought looked over two shorter than Israel Adesanya in a recent video.
Editor Rob
Will have to consider David.
Sam83 said on 6/May/25
Hi Rob, that’s interesting, thank you! I was confident she wouldn’t get to my height, let alone be an inch or more taller! I’m sure the family will make us do a back-to-back comparison but sounds like I’m going to lose out on this one!! Will certainly feel strange looking up to her eye level for once after I’ve been taller al these years!

Just wondered, have you ever measured jenny to see how tall she had got to from 171cm, in a super high pair of heels please?
Editor Rob
The highest heel Jenny ever wore was a 4 inch (technically it was described 5 inch but gave 4). That's when she was nearer her peak height, so could clear 6ft in the heel. I can't find the image offhand, but I used it in a Thumbnail on Youtube before.
fullduchess23 said on 6/May/25
Rob, if a footballer is measured around 10-11am, let's say he's been awake since 8am, and he's marked 187 at the visit, how would he probably be listed on your site?
Editor Rob
He might get 6ft 1.25 as a listing.

Hi Rob,

For my birthday today, I’d love a Joe Flynn page. Could you work this for me?

5’5.25” I’d go with as he was a
near an inch under 5’6” Tim Conway at 3:00 below

Click Here
Sam83 said on 5/May/25
Hi Rob, thanks very much, she will be pleased to hear that, although not sure I’m ready to be looking up at her, if her eye level is higher or be the shorter sibling for first time! I know my shoes don’t really give any extra height either unfortunately!
Do you think 6’0.5 / 6’1 would be possible for her then please? If we stood next to each other, I assume this would be noticeable if compared?

I don’t know if anyone else on the group has had a friend or sibling suddenly become taller than in heels!!
Editor Rob
In those heels, yes, that range of nearly 6ft 1 is quite possible. I believe if you are in a flatter shoe like 3/4 inch, she will look taller and feel taller than yourself.

Posture plays a role too, at times when I'm standing talking to Jenny, she feels 2 inches shorter because her posture isn't as good as it once was, but still measures 170-171 zone.

Editor Rob
If I do excessive work that impacts joints, then this is possible that it will cause some earlier loss in mid 50's. I think the key is to keep moving, doing some exercise.
Sam83 said on 4/May/25
Hi Rob, I am 5’11.5 and my sister is 5’7.5. She’s a couple of years younger than me but determined to make herself taller than me next time we go out! She’s looking at these pairs of heels Click Here and Click Here

Do you think she actually has a good chance of being noticeably taller than me / making me the shorter sibling for once please?! Thank you
Editor Rob
With both pairs she should measure over 6ft because of the front platforms being 2.5 inches and a high angle probably giving her 5 inches of actual height, maybe a touch more depending on her foot length. So she should at least look equal if you are in a shoe, with a chance of seeming taller (assuming her eyelevel is slightly higher).
Carruther said on 3/May/25
Rob, I recently measured myself next to the door thats 6ft 8 with a book i marked it and put my iphone xr which is about 6 inches and theres about 2 inches to the frame how tall would you say i am.I measured at 5pm.

Rob when are you planning to add Adin Ross & Kai Cenat?

I think Kai Cenat for sure would help boost a lot of traction for your site let alone Adin Ross. It would also increase a good amount of Zoomers, where we are more obsessed with height than previous generations. A lot of these streamers have entire comment sections especially ones like Kai where tons of people in the comments are arguing about his height.

This video of Kai arguing with Kevin for example has over 14 million views.

I would say once you start exploring streamers you’ll see the ones who do daily irl streams tend to have fans arguing about their height (the shorter or taller they are).

Any chances of pages for old school actors Patrick Allen or John Bindon ? Two interesting cases,there's a 5ft9 listing for Allen hanging around which is way off, my guess is 5ft11.5 or at worst 11.25. As for John Bindon he's described as 6ft2 but doesn't look that tall...I get a 6ft0.5 vibe from him.
Editor Rob
Allen, I remember popping up on a lot of stuff over the years, certainly gave a taller impression than 5ft 9.

what is the height that in your site you think fully represents me, which celebrities that come to mind in your opinion have the same range as me.

thank you very much for the help rob i wish you a good day

If you meant 12.42pm, having been awake near 6 hours then 6ft 1/4 isn't too bad a listing.

Rob If I am 6'1.75 in the morning and 6'0.875 in the evening what would I be listed as?
Editor Rob
Either 6ft 1 or 1.25. Would also depend on how tall you seemed and maybe a height claim gets taken into account. Somebody coming up with 'just over' 6ft 1 and them looking near it, you would think they may well have measured that range.

As someone who has for some years now taken on that role temprorarily for a few family members, it's something you do out of love. But it can be extremely draining. I hope things are going better for everyone involved. Just know that you have people who visit here who understand.
Editor Rob
Yes, it drains you mentally and physically. I'm actually doing more care these days, but I'm trying to manage time better. Living in a different home these days has helped in that respect.
trizlzzz said on 27/Apr/25
Rob would it be possible you could add Hassan piker, I reckon he's around 6'2.75-6'3 range nowadays. Also I noticed there's a comment I made that has my email on it for Lukaku height guess and I was wondering I that could be removed for privacy reasons
fullduchess23 said on 27/Apr/25
rob a guy who is in the 185-186 range in the morning, how would you put him in celebrity heights.
Editor Rob
Would depend if he stated that he got measured that mark out of bed. I'd consider 6ft 1/2 as a fair listing.
Com said on 27/Apr/25
Rob, may I suggest you create tags tailored to celebrities heights? I know you have celebs in their height category, but maybe it would be easier to have a tag that directs to the category?
Editor Rob
I did consider it and not sure why I decided not to add it!
FE3 said on 27/Apr/25
@Editor Rob,

Please Update these celebs...

Not putting pressure on you, just wanted hit all birds w/ one stone as some of these are long overdue now!

What do you think Rob?
bmb said on 27/Apr/25
What do you think is a perfect page to ask how tall a celebrity is, that don't have pages here?
Editor Rob
This page is probably the best one to ask.
Pirate7 said on 27/Apr/25
Hey Rob. What do you consider the beginning of tall and very tall for a male? And hopefully you are able to keep comments on from now on. This site is my favourite site to visit and its nice to ask height related questions from someone who actually understands height :)
Editor Rob
Once you start getting towards 6ft range, for me that's heading into tall territory and once into 6ft 3-4 zone for a male, very tall starts.
OSB said on 27/Apr/25
Hi, Rob, will you add Nikola Jokic who has been the best basketball player for years now? He is listed as 6'11 Do you think that is accurate or is he maybe closer to 10.5 or maybe 10.75?

Noticably taller than Kevin Durant: Click Here

Noticably shorter than Joel Embiid: Click Here
Andrea said on 27/Apr/25
I didn't expect to see the comments again so "early", Rob! Nice!!
I'll reiterate my request on here... can you add Patrick Gibson and Molly Brown from Dexter: Original Sin? Patrick I can believe him close to 5'9, while Molly claimed 5'3 Click Here which does seem fair... :)
Also, I don't know if she's someone you would add, but since you would hardly find her claim anywhere else... If you want to add Agathe Rousselle (known for Titane), she told me to be 174, which definitely looks much more believable than the 167 she keeps getting listed at: Click Here
Editor Rob
5ft 9 for Gibson looks quite believable. If Agathe goes on to appear in more things, she is one to consider.

Glad your back to moderating again! Hope all is well with family and friends, they're the most important thing anyway. We're all good down here in sunny weston s mare and gearing up for a busy liverpool in a weeks time, although prices of celebrities doesn't seem to be slowing any time now. Think i have around 7 or 8 people to see but i don't watch much new tv so will run out eventually lol
Editor Rob
Liverpool looks a great lineup, look forward to seeing your photos in a few weeks! Maybe one day I will return to cons, but I doubt the prices will have come down by then....Seems like it's 3-figures for a photo op with a bigger name these days.
Tarif Al-Majidi said on 26/Apr/25
Can you guess Michael Yerger’s height? He claims and is listed at 6’1”. He’s pretty close to that at 6’0-1”.
Editor Rob
Maybe not a full 6ft 1.
reachjtm said on 26/Apr/25
btw rob will you consider adding Stephen A.Smith?
reachjtm said on 26/Apr/25
Rob I know there has been a lot going on with your life that last 1 or 2 years and hope most of the issues have been solve but i really wonder if this site will be like pre 2023 again.
Editor Rob
I just hope to get back to regular moderation. It may mean I have to delete more spam comments. The site was always about celebrity height, but unfortunately at times people seem to want to make it about their own height. I'm on a sabbatical from attending conventions, they are too expensive at the moment.

@Connor I think you need to speak to someone, from what I’ve read you’re very self defeatist and that’s not healthy. You think how many guys would kill to be your height and are living great lives. At the end of the day everyone has their insecurities, you just have to get on with it and make the most of what you have. 6’0 is tall anyways, not standout but you’re literally taller than 85% of guys in the UK.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 8/Dec/24
Canson I do have interests, i like gaming for example. I love playing video games on my PS2, PS5 and XBOX 360. But even when im playing video games it still doesn't really take my mind off things. I still can't help thinking about my height and how mediocre it is. Its easy for you to say these things to me. You have a great height and you're not self conscious about your height and whole appearance in general and you don't suffer from obsessive compulsive disorder and depression like i do. You guys can like 6ft and think its a great height if you want, that's your opinion. But saying it is tall is factually incorrect. It's meagrely above average, but still average overall.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 8/Dec/24
Rapha Im neither very tall or tall, just average.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 8/Dec/24
c-mo 176-177cm Nope, legit tall is 6ft 2, not 6ft. Again, ive already proved its average in 12 countries, (maybe even more). 6ft is barely above average at best. So 6ft is FAR from perfect, it's a heavily flawed height. Even if it was 85 percent taller than most people or 80 percent, which its neither of those percentages', that's not enough for me. I want to be over 90 percent taller than most people. I'm still going to get the surgery, you cant talk me out of it. 6ft is not the right height for me, im sorry but that's how i feel.
James B 172cm said on 7/Dec/24
Nothing wrong with 6ft get over it
Abdul-177 said on 7/Dec/24
In Denmark where I live my height is actually not the end of the world. This is from my own experience. Even though the overall average here is like 179-180 or something, then at 177 I feel almost average. Not all times but sometimes. The average amongst young people is more 181-182 range. But I still feel decent , even in clubs I feel decent about my height.

@Emil I don’t know what you think, but do you sometimes feel kinda tall being 6’0?
Mammi said on 6/Dec/24
Hi Rob, I am 27 years old, I woke up at 176.2 cm and fall to 174.3 cm at night. So basically 174.3 cm, Do you think it is short for guys my age?
Editor Rob
In most countries, no. In only a few would you be thought of as short.
Darksol64 said on 6/Dec/24
I'm a 187cm or weak 6'2 guy legit barefoot at my normal low just before bed and I can tell you where I live in the U.S. I feel like a half-giant when I wear my 2 inch extra thick running shoes to basically look 6'3 in public. I'd say it's certainly no more than 15% of guys I come across that would measure a real 6 ft.

Sorry to all the 6'0 claimers out there.... measuring 6'0 in your shoes in the morning is a far cry from a legit 6 ft.

As far as what a legit 6 ft actually is....I'd say it's a barefoot morning time measurement -no less- than 6'0 and 1/2. You might measure a quarter under at your low, but to me it's close enough. Only measuring 6 ft first thing in the morning is a very weak 6 ft. I would just claim 5'11 and most people would be surprised and say you look 6 ft anyway with all the fake height claims out there. Wear thick shoes they will think you're 6'2.
c-mo 176-177cm said on 6/Dec/24
@connor

6'8 is far from perfect lol . 5'11 - 6'0 IS the perfect height . i have analysed height for a long time and i can say that i am sure that 5'11 and 6'0 barefeet are perfection

6'0 is above average by the way . even for young european guys it is stil above average . average height for a young european is about 178 - 179 cm at night or so . at 183cm you are 4-5cm above that

and in the rest of the world except 1 african tribe you are legit tall

it is so sad that you want to do the surgery even though you are 6'0 . wtf . dont do this to yourself please

you have to come to your senses man
ConnorS-6'0 said on 6/Dec/24
Well guys, i have been to my appointment, but I didn't get my answer yet. I only got weighed, had my height measured and i had my blood pressure checked. I have got another appointment that has been arranged. So i will have to wait just a little bit longer until I find out if I can have the surgery or not.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 6/Dec/24
Emil Well, im still asking for the surgery today at the doctors. I want it so its worth it to me. You cant change my mind, its pointless trying to.
Editor Rob
I'd be shocked if the NHS are going to sanction leg-lengthening for a 6ft man.

They are more likely to arrange a psychology assessment.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 6/Dec/24
@viper No, it's not. Not even close. 🤣
ConnorS-6'0 said on 6/Dec/24
FiveNine Finally, thankyou! At least you get it. Everyone else here is just plain delusional. Im not being rude everyone, im just stating the facts. Im sorry if you do take offence to what i said. Im merely pointing out that 6ft isn't tall, that's all. It really is just average, not as average as 5ft 9 and 5ft 10 no, but it's still average, and as soon as you realise that the better.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 6/Dec/24
@Rapha I wouldn't say that, 1.5 inches between us is a solid enough difference. If you're still trying to convince me that im tall aswell, then im sorry to say this but you're failing. Im not tall and i never will be, being 6ft just doesn't cut it anymore. You need to get with the times. Its no longer tall, more like upper average now, but still average regardless. It had its heyday back in the 30s and 40s and in the 1800s, but 6ft is just a very normal looking average height now. It blends in perfectly with a crowd of people. If i was tall then i would be towering over most people, i clearly don't. I can see 6ft being bang on average height in the 2030s, since guys are constantly getting taller with good genetics, healthy diet and nutrition. Anyway, as for your height, i would say it is just about when tall starts. Strong 6'1" range to 6'2" is officially when tall starts. Idk man, i really think 1.5 inches is enough to differentiate the two heights. The shorter height is barely above average and the taller one is clearly tall. I don't look tall next to even you either, its pathetic. 6'0" just doesn't look it at all, proportion wise aswell. Click Here
Rapha said on 6/Dec/24
ConnorS-6'0 said on 3/Dec/24
@Canson I'm sorry lol but i really don't look tall with you, because I'm clearly not.

@Connor: The point you need to understand is that Canson is by unievrsal standards considered very tall. You are certainly noticeably shorter than him but that does not mean that you are not tall, you are just not very tall.
bmb said on 5/Dec/24
@Rob Which seems more common now here: full-inch integers or half-inch integers?
Editor Rob
That's something I've never calculated, but there is a fairly high percentage of fractional listings on here.
Canson said on 5/Dec/24
@Connor: that’s right at eyebrow level. That’s above avg.

No disrespect but you should probably find some interests other than just hejght anbd stop obsessing over it and work toward improving what you can control because you’ll drive yourself crazy. You being artificially taller isn’t going to make things better in life. I am what I am and am content but if I were 6’ I’d have to
Embrace it. You can alter footwear to add a fraction, use glucosamine, and build your body.
Gerald S said on 5/Dec/24
Rob, judging by the many celebheights I shout on here, would you call me an expert at judging heights?

I would agree with a fairly high percentage of guesses, at least within a small margin of error.

The more you see/watch, the greater knowledge you can have on celebrity height.
Rapha said on 5/Dec/24
Cbrady said on 3/Dec/24
I truly don't believe the proportion of men who measure a solid 183 cm at night is as high as 30 percent. Many 6 claimers will drop to 5-11.5 to 5.11.75 range and will pass for the 6 mark. As Rob says there are just as many 5.11.5 guys as there are 6 foot guys.

@cbrady I agree with you that not many guys will be 183 cm as their low evening night, I would say only as posted before 15%. Then of course, it depends of what is the definition is of a legit and accurate 183 cm guy. If it is a guy that has an average of morning and evening height of 183 cm, or gets measured at the doctors around 10 or 11 clock in the morning at 183 cm, then we might have a slightly higher percentage of maybe around 20% of all males that reach this height.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 5/Dec/24
There are some countries where I would be considered tall, like Japan and China. but they are few and far between. Everywhere else my height is average. There's nothing anyone can say that will negate that, your argument is weak, no offence guys.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 5/Dec/24
@c-mo 176-177cm And my height is NOT perfect, its imperfect. Perfect height for me is 6ft 8, im not joking, im actually being serious. I loved being close to that height in my platform boots.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 5/Dec/24
@c-mo 176-177cm I have always felt inadequate at my height, mate. Its got absolutely nothing to do with your comment. And i apologise for insulting you btw, i was out of order. Im a bad person, you've got nothing to apologise for. Nah, you have helped me open my eyes to reality. You're right, i was deluded when i used to think 6ft was tall. I saw for myself that its clearly not. 6ft is above average, barely, though. It still belongs in the average height category because again i get a lot of guys the same height as me. I don't think even 6ft 1 is tall either, but its tallish. Legit tall starts at 6ft 2. And i am ugly, im foul.
Emil said on 4/Dec/24
@Connor

I'm also 6'0 and a fraction like you, and whilst I wouldn't mind another inch or two, limb lengthening ain't worth the risk. Even with the best surgeons there's a palpable risk of a fatal outcome. Consider it carefully, bro

Hey Rob. Am I technically lying if I round up my afternoon height (5'7.5) to 5'8? It's a weird height because I can claim 5'7.5 but it kind of sounds insecure. 5'8 sounds casual but not accurate? Lol.
Tarif the Majesty said on 4/Dec/24
Hey Rob Sir, I saw the video where you say you're famous and I would say you are. According to AI chatbots, you have an estimated reach and influence of 10 M-50 M people irl and online. That's really amazing! Considering Andrew Tate is probably within the range of 100-200 M people.

Sir, I can barely fit in my dad's Sonic LT car. My knees hit the dashboard and head almost hits the roof (1-2" apart). What height range would you guess someone that size? I remember some people here guessing my height at 6'6" before the videos. I entered in various AI chatbots what my height would be because of that and they said around 6'6-8". What say? I have a friend whose 6'1.75" and he's 3.5" or more inches shorter in pics with me.
Editor Rob
I dn't think we have that car here in Scotland, but remember if somebody is carrying extra weight, there's a greater chance of sitting height being affected.
FiveNine said on 4/Dec/24
Connor is right about 6foot tall dudes not really being looked at as tall.
My 6’0” friends are definitely in my height category.
To be honest when I have
to look up at someone over 6’1” — being 5’9” then becomes a reality.
Being over 6’1” is definitely more of a genuine tall height.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 4/Dec/24
@Arch Stanton I'm hideous enough already. There's no point in worrying about my legs looking too long and disproportionate for my body when i already look awful naturally. If anything, having longer legs would look better on me, at least to me. My legs aren't even that long for my height, which just makes my height of 6ft even more terrible.

"Ah, according to Official Health of the Nation figures, the number of British men over six feet tall is increasing. The data indicates that around 30 percent of men under 25 in Britain are already surpassing the 6-foot mark." Under 25s maybe, but if you stopped and measured 1000 guys barefoot in a city street the idea that 300 of them will be over 6 ft seems outrageous to me.

Idk, it doesn't seem so outrageous to me. I've seen loads of guys over 6'0" and loads that are the same height as me or slightly taller. So 6'0" is still an average height. There's no way that 6'0" is taller than 90% of the world male population, that's incredibly inaccurate. If that was the case, then I would be taller than most people I see. I'm clearly not taller than most people. And I have already proved that 6'0" is average in 12 countries, and you want to tell me that my height is taller than most guys on the planet? Lol give me a break! Plus, it's not even average in the Netherlands. Again, the average height there is 6'0.5", so I would actually be considered somewhat short there. Give up mate, you're fighting a losing battle.
Rapha said on 4/Dec/24
@Connor. I live in a country where the average height for males is slightly higher for males than in the UK. I am 4 cm taller than you and I measure around lunch 6 ft 1.5 inches barefoot or 187 cm. I feel in most settings tall. In a big event or gathering, i belong usually to the tallest people ( in comparison mainly with men between 30 and 50).

Obviously, there are men taller than me but i am very rarely towered by another man. The point I want to make is that we have a total different way of perceiving our height. I am not so much taller than you and you can not tell me that the 4 cm height difference between us make such a big difference in perception.

Hi Rob

I was curious about one thing. As we all know, after a full night sleep of lets say 10 hours, we are at our maximum height in the morning. Let's assume that one person will remain in bed for 48 hours and be lying in bed the whole time. Would that person after coming out of bed after 48 hours be taller than if that person would be lying in bed for only 10 hours? In case that is the case, how much taller would that person be after remaining 2 full days in bed rather than only 10 hours?
Editor Rob
I've never tested a duration that long, I remember about 15 hours being something I've tested before and really didn't go beyond my usual max morning height.
c-mo 176-177cm said on 3/Dec/24
i wonder if connor thinks the way he does because of one of some my comments in the past . i said that 6'0 is above average but not quite tall yet and said that you are deluded if you think 6'0 is tall . when connor read this he insulted me heavily and got banned if i remember right . well i shouldnt have used the word deluded so that was my fault . and i hope i have not make connor feel inadequate about being 6'0

6'0 is above average even for young european men . and it is a perfect height . 5'11 and 6'0 are the best heights in my eyes .

they are the most aesthetic heights and you are a little above average while maintaining good face and body proportions.

the best looking male celebs in the world are around 5'11 - 6'0 . Leonardo Dicaprio , George Clooney , Jamie Dornan to just name a few

also connor you are not ugly at all what are you talking about dude . you are decent looking

you look decent and have a perfect height . you shouldnt complain

Henrik said on 3/Dec/24
@Connor

I never had leg lengthening surgery. The orthopaedic surgery that I had was in my elbow.

I guess that I can somewhat relate to how you feel if your stepfather is 6ft 5. At 6ft 2 I have to admit that I've always felt a tad disappointed that I didn't reach 6ft 4 which is the height of my uncle. When I was a teenager, I sort of had this obsession of going to websites on the internet that claimed you could grow taller with certain stretching exercises before your growth plants had fused. I never did the exercises but I'm fairly certain they dont work. Or else they would be recommended by doctors, obviously.

On the other hand, I know someone who is 6ft 4 and says that he would rather be 6ft to 6ft 2.

I don't know where you're getting the 30% figure Connor, no way are 3 out of every 10 random guys in an average street over 6 ft barefoot in the UK. Click Here This says 6 ft is taller than about 90% of the world male population. In the US 14.5% of men are taller than 6 ft. That seems more accurate to me. In the UK I would say 6 ft is taller than about 90% of all people.

If you could pay £50,000 and be Kevin Nash the rest or your life, I would understand it, but height is a natural and proportionate thing. I don't understand how strapping on a pair of Peter Crouch legs would make you happy. Your legs will look hideously out of proportion with your body. There are very few people who are over 6 ft 7 who look good even in proportion, I can only think of Michael Crichton, Kevin Nash and Brad Garrett, Joonas, that Dutch giant guy and Mark Easton who look good in the giant range of heights!
ConnorS-6'0 said on 3/Dec/24
Here's some definitive proof that 6ft isn't tall, comparing it to two other average heights 5ft 9 and 5ft 10, 6ft still does look average there. Even next to a 5ft 5 woman, its nothing outstanding. Its not tall at all. Click Here Click Here
Tarif the Majesty said on 3/Dec/24
Sir, I did what you told me to do this morning and here's what I found: My eye level clears 5'8" range easily into 5'9". Maybe 5'9.25" max.. With bad posture, by the way. So, I'm looking to be 6'1.75"-2.25" (187-189 cm) tall with bad posture (my usual posture). And with good or decent posture, my eye level clears 5'10", into 5'10.25". Maybe 5'10.5" max.. Assuming 4.75-5" is the average eye level length of a tall guy 6'2" and above. So I might be 6'3-3.5" (191-192 cm) in the morning. 6'2.75" would be a good lunchtime claim.

@Abdul-177 I compare myself to all humans. Yes, 6'0" is only very, very slightly above average, but its still average overall regardless. Anyone who says its tall is deluded. I dont even tower over most people, only the elderly, women and short guys, but that's only a very small percentage. Most people nowadays are either average height themselves, or are way over 6'0" and that is the truth. A 6 footer doesn't even stand out in the crowd, so how tf is it tall? Lol it doesn't even look tall either. Tall starts at 6'2", tallish is 6'1" and 6'0" is just very slightly above average, but is still in the average height category, just at the high end.

I can kind of agree with the idea that 6ft isn't tall, in the west now it is more upper average I'd say for the under forties..but still at 6ft your height isn't an obstacle to a happy/healthy life...your personality,your lifestyle,your choices,your appearance might need to change but your height doesn't. Let's face it there's guys out there at 5ft8/9 or 10 with money,success,women,fulfilment,intellect and confidence whod just laugh at you for your imaginary ailment at only being 6ft.

I just read an article that says back in 2020 the average height for men in the UK has increased to 5ft 10, no longer 5ft 9 if that was ever true in the first place. And even the person who wrote this article doubts that 6ft is tall. And if what he/she said is true about 5ft 10 being the new average height overall, then that means 5ft 11 is the new average height for the young generation, which just proves my point once again that 6ft is definitely not tall, not even tallish either. Its only above average by a microscopic amount, 6ft is a nothing height. For those of you who aren't 6ft and really wish you could be 6ft, you're not missing out on anything. Its nothing special, its just bland. But seriously guys, just give it up. 6ft isnt tall, overall its just average, period. Anyway, here's the article: Click Here

@connor : I have just typed your height in the height percentage for males in the UK and at 183 cm you are taller than 85% of males. Only 15% of males are taller than you and you want to tell me that you are not tall in the UK?
ConnorS-6'0 said on 2/Dec/24
@Duckman If you drop to 182.5cm in the afternoon, then i would say claiming almost 6'0 as your height would be more accurate, or 5'11 7/8. Having an extreme low of 181.8cm definitely puts you in the weak/almost 6'0 category.

@Rapha I'm from the UK, 6'0" is NOT tall here, believe me. At most, it is only very slightly above average, nothing significant at all. Most of the time, it's solidly average.

Do you compare your height to whites or to all humans ?

For a white guy 6’0 is really not tall, I’d agree with you. It’s above average.

But if you compare your height to all humans from your town, you might feel tall by that logic.
Tarif the Majesty said on 1/Dec/24
Sir, what height should I claim? According to that video you saw of me recently, how tall do I look? 6'3"? 6'4"? 6'2", even? Shorter or taller? What's your verdict? People like to get under my skin about my height. And they are allowed to disagree with my claims if they feel I am shorter or taller! But, I just need a number to claim. They are claiming because of that stadiometer measurement I got at 5'8.625", I am a weak 5'9".But, against, the wall, I measure much taller. As you can see with how I stack up against the wall, full body. My mouth hits just above the 5'7" mark making me 6'3" range. What say, Sir? I don't mind being short or tall. It doesn't matter to me. All I know is that I am tall and my height is above average by a great amount. I also don't like height bullying. I'd still be a happy person short. In fact, there would be less people who are jealous of my height and want to diminish it. So, if I was short, there would be less criticism on that front and thus, more happiness. It's probably because of the stereotypes of being a tall male especially as a Bengali that people try to knock me for my height. Which is fine. I understand why, though.Stereotypes and all...

Take a tape measure from the floor to your eyes. If you genuinely see close to 5ft 10 in front of you, then go with 6ft 2.75 as your claim.

Haven't been on here in awhile haha. I was curious if people on here generally get guessed at heavier or lighter than they really are. I'm 6'7 and right around 215 lbs at the moment lean (12-13% bodyfat). People almost always guess me as heavier than I really am, usually in the 225-235lb range.
Editor Rob
I don't really hear much weight-guessing in person.
Canson said on 1/Dec/24
@Arch: what Connor doesn’t realize is too much of anything isn’t a good thing. That includes height. I’m good with being 6’4” but I don’t have any advantages over a 6’1-6’2 guy really. I’m just accustomed to being this height at almost 43. But I do have friends 6’5+, 6’6 and 6’7 and the taller ones have complained. The 6’7 wears his well. Very well built and he’s back in gym at 45. But he even told me once in college that it’s too tall outside of playing basketball. The 6’6 wishes he were my height. He said it’s too tall and he wears flats and slouches a lot enough to where I am eye level with him and even taller in thick footwear and orthotics I wear at times. He said same thing that he’s banged his head wearing boots in places where low doorways esp earlier in the day I’d assume since 6’6-6’6 1/8 is his low and he wakes around 6’7 or just under. You bring up interesting points with Connor tho. Maybe that’s what it’s about. But aside from the doctors telling him no (more than likely to the surgery) he won’t like the outcome esp when it’s artificial like that and comes with more risks than benefits (any surgery does) and this type isn’t necessary. He should see a psychologist or psychiatrist instead to address it with them and maybe he’d think differently. They may look at him and see a bigger issue and work to address that instead. But as far as aesthetics, Better approach is to build his body to where he can stand out that way

@Arch Stanton My stepdad was actually closer to 6'5" when he was younger, might have been a weak 6'5" tbh, maybe 6'4.5". He's 59 years old now, and he looks like he has lost some height. He looks 6'3.5" nowadays. And yeah, in the past we didn't have the best relationship, but we get on with each other better now. And I really do appreciate everyone's concern about me getting the surgery, but I'm sorry, there's nothing anyone can say to me that will change my mind. As I said before, I'm already aware of the risks. I still want the surgery regardless. There's no point in living life being insecure and unhappy. So yeah, you got to do what makes you happy.

@Rapha My mum doesn't necessarily agree with me having this surgery, but she said she will support me. But my dad is heavily against it, and he's desperately trying to talk me out of it. It's not going to happen unfortunately, he's going to have to get used to it.
dreus23 said on 1/Dec/24
I know long-term stretching tends to make you measure taller due to better posture, but wouldn't short-term stretching with post-exercise soreness and whatnot make you temporarily measure shorter?
Editor Rob
It's something I think needs testing!
Rapha said on 1/Dec/24
@Connor. I do not know in which world you are living but even in the Netherlands or in Bosnia, your height would be average but those countries have the highest average height in the world.

In any other western countries, you will be considered tall and not even
to mention countries in Asia or in Latin America where you will be borderline very tall.

Of course, if you compare yourself to basketball players, then you would be considered short but you should obviously know that those group of people belong to the tallest population overall so it is not an acurate guide of reference.

I have the impression that you want to be over 2 m because you think that your insecurities in life will go away but I highly doubt it.

I know someone who is 212 cm tall and he has the same insecurities and anxieties than anyone else. He told me that he often gets annoyed by people that always stare at him. He has also some back issues.

It is your decision to do the surgery but I would really think twice about it. Btw, what are your relatives saying about the leg lengthening surgery?
MD said on 1/Dec/24
A general observation, but it's been interesting/fascinating having been here awhile to witness a change of culture over time. I noticed since you've been back, the push here is to add height to celebrities. I'm not sure if it's a good trend, but it is a different one. lol
ConnorS-6'0 said on 30/Nov/24
For those of you who still want to insist that 6'0" is 'tall'. Need I remind you that 30% of American men and British men are taller than that, 30% is quite a big percentage, much larger than you think. Id argue that the percentage might be even 40%. The satistical data on average height might not quite be as accurate as what we were led to believe. And again, 6'0" is only tall around 5'7" men and shorter, and around women which most of them range to 5'3" (maybe even shorter than that) to 5'5", and elderly people which from what I saw not many of them are tall or even average.

Its not an opinion but rather an objective fact that 6'0" for a man is just a mediocre height. Seriously, it's really not tall, just solidly average. Its maybe very slightly above average at best, even that is a bit of a stretch. 6'0" is barely taller than 5'9" and 5'10" men. Men who are 6'0" are dwarfed by 6'4" men and taller. It makes no sense to say 6'0" is tall, there's a lot of men taller than that. Especially a lot of the young generation which are taller than 6'0". Its definitely not tall in the Netherlands, the average height for men there is actually 6'0.5", not 6'0". And for those people who say 6'0" is never short no matter where you go is blatantly false. It is just below average in the Netherlands, so it is at least somewhat short. Even in the UK and America 6'0" can definitely be short sometimes. There are many other countries which has an average height of 6'0" such as South Sudan, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Denmark, Norway, Serbia, Germany, Croatia, Slovenia and Czech. Need I go on? But yes, even here in the UK its common to see men taller than 6'0" that range from 6'4" to 6'5", so at that point in time you would certainly feel short. Again in my personal experience, when i was walking around Doncaster in the town centre, and in other places like York and Sheffield, I saw a significant amount of guys taller than me. The large percentage of taller men definitely outweighs the percentage of men that are shorter than me, which only reinforces the fact that 6'0" is not tall. It is delusion to think otherwise.

Moreover, societal standards change over time. While historical data might suggest that heights were lower in previous decades (e.g., during the early to mid-20th century), modern nutrition and health advancements have contributed to increases in average heights across generations.

Height trends show that younger generations tend to be taller than their predecessors due to improved nutrition and health care. Studies have literally indicated that there has been a gradual increase in average heights over the last century. For instance, research published by various health organizations indicates that boys born today are likely to be taller than those born several decades ago.

As i said before, 6'0" used to be tall back in the 1930's and 1940's, but nowadays not anymore. It's clear as day that people are getting taller and the average height has increased. Heights such as 6'2" and 6'3", even 6'4" are much better than 6'0". I still stand by what I said, especially about 6'0 being mediocre and that it's not a particularly tall height. So what I said does hold some truth. 6'0" really isn't this great golden height that everyone or at least most people think it is, it's vastly overrated and I literally proved it.
Arch Stanton said on 30/Nov/24
Isn't your stepdad 6 ft 6 Connor? I suspect that might be one of the underlying causes of your obsession with being very tall. Was he intimidating or belittling to you or something? I can understand being around a man that tall a lot feeling that 6 ft is short, but obviously 6 ft 6 is quite rare and you should be taller than about 90% of people.
Arch Stanton said on 30/Nov/24
Connor, when you're 85 and on death's door and looking back at your life, do you think you'll still regret not being 6 ft 8, not getting the leg surgery, or wishing you could have just accepted being around 6 ft and lived a good, productive life? Keep in mind that leg health is vital for good cardio vascular and brain health, being able to walk regularly and stay in good health is so important, you'd be crippling yourself for what?? To look an ungaily height and stand out in public as a sort of circus freak? You'll never walk properly again with that surgery and surely be in constant pain. Would your world be magically great if you were 6 ft 8? I doubt it. Work on your physical health/buffing up, eating better etc and with better self-esteem you might worry less about your height and might find nobody really cares if you're very tall or not! Ask most women what they think an ideal height for a guy is and I reckon 6 ft would be the most common answer!

@connor

leg lengthening surgery at 6'0 ? wtf O_o

6'0 is a perfect height . and it is not short at all . it is actually above average

dont do it mate

at 6'0 you will be taller than a good amount of men . but you dont have to be taller than most men anyway . it is not about being the tallest guy around you know. a height is not any less perfect when you dont tower other men . you dont need to be insecure at 6'0 . you should rather be thankful to be 6'0 . i am 5'9.25 evening and i dont feel short . and if i could choose a height to be it would be either 5'11 or 6'0

work on your insecurities instead . the surgery is expensive and the process afterwards is painful and draining . and if i am not wrong it is very typical to have athletic problems afterwards . for example you will not be able to run well anymore if i remember right ..i think i read this somewhere

dont do this to yourself

At 177 cm I feel decent despite being lower than the average person in Denmark. I can also admit that my height is good.

Hi Rob, I’m 184cm soon as I wake up, then float around 183.2 to 182.5 for most of the day, and my absolute minimum measurement after an active day walking about is 181.8, so would 6ft be a reasonable claim?

Furthermore I’m 19 and grew about a centimetre within the past year, do you think I would reach a 183cm minimum height or higher?
Editor Rob
You might have just got a last little boost at 19, so if there's anything left in terms of growth, take it as a bonus. You'll definitely look a six footer to the majority of people, so claiming it is fair.

As for Hechinger, I do remember thinking he didn't look over 5'6 on the show, and with others I'd still say he can look 5'5-5'6 a lot, more than anything over 5'6!

@Rapha Also, i strongly disagree with 6'0" being a 'great' height. It's a very flawed and imperfect OK height, just OK, neither good or bad.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 28/Nov/24
@Rapha Yeah I'm not very tall, im not even just quite tall, just average or very slightly above average at best, even that is pushing it. I want to be very tall so I can feel comfortably tall everywhere I go and not feel inadequate to taller people anymore. So being 6'8" would definitely minimize the likelihood of me finding someone taller! Only 1% of men would be taller than me, that's basically it. Also, the other reason i want to be 6'8" is so I can cosplay as Darth Vader and be more accurate as I'm too short at just 6'0". If I have the leg lengthening surgery to become 6'8" then I wouldn't need to wear platform boots for the costume anymore. It would definitely help me with my insecurities as i wouldn't need to wear then anymore for going out in public either.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

interesting . me at 5'9.25 evening height i have been called "big strong man" 3 times in the last couple of years . 2 times in the (same) hospital when they wanted to give me a medication that i was worried of . they meant that my body can handle it because i am apperently a "tall strong (i am buff thats why i guess) man" . one nurse said it who was like 5'6 and one male nurse who is 6'2 . it surprised me that a 6'2 man calls me that . but of course i know that they said it primarily to take away my worries of taking the med . but hey ...would they have said the same if i was 5'5 ? i dont think so

and one time the exact same thing my female boss said on work when she asked me to carry something

i dont think i am tall but i do think that a legit strong 5'9 range man with a broad body frame can be seen as slightly tallish at times under certain circumstances . and because of height inflation he will be guessed as 5'11 by many people

and i live in germany . you are from UK ? the average height is less in UK than in germany so i guess at your height you might sometimes experience the same thing as me

@Andrea for some reason going into Gladiator 2 I thought Fred was like 5'11 and didn't know his height. But he looks maybe 5 inches shorter than Joseph Quinn. 5'5.5 possibly. I think most of the cast is in that 5'10-5'11 range though.

I also think you're lowballing Hechinger a bit. He looks proportionally 5'5 and 4 inches shorter than Mescal but he looks identical to Steve Zahn:

He looks to have a somewhat big head for his height though, so looking at the back of his head he does tend to look close to 5'7, maybe 5'6.5 with most people

"Editor Rob
At the moment that would take me a while to think of."

You can think calmly 🙂
In addition to Will Sharpe, can you add a couple more people I saw in The White Lotus that came to my mind and I think could make a good add?
- Jolene Purdy: she's been in several shows, other than Donnie Darko, and she gets listed around at a very optimistic 5'6, so she definitely needs a more realistic listing somewhere... From a VERY quick look, I'd say 5'2 at the very most.
- Fred Hechinger: recently in Gladiator 2, he definitely looks under his listed 5'7, at most 5'6 with a good chance of 5'5-5'6 from what I've seen.
Btw, to help you out deciding on Will, along with Cumberbatch Click Here , you can also see him with Jesse Eisenberg Click Here and Jamie Campbell Bower Click Here ...

Surprised Jolene is listed online at 5ft 6, 5ft 2 is certainly closer to the truth!

Hi Rob,
Which height would you consider the cutoff for being short for a young male in the UK? 5 ft 7 or 5 ft 8?
Editor Rob
In terms of average, I'd still say 5ft 7 might be seen by a good chunk of the population as short. I believe once you get to 5ft 6, the vast majority would think of you as short.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 25/Nov/24
@Henrik Thankyou for sharing your experience. Yes I'm well aware that the surgery will be painful, and im mentally prepared for it. I still want it, though. There's nothing anyone can say or do that will change my mind. How tall are you now after getting the surgery? And how tall were you before?

Rob since im almost 6'8" in my platform boots. How likely is it that i will be the tallest person walking about in public?

You could walk days and not come across somebody taller. Go to a bigger city and the odds increase you'll find somebody that tall more regularly, especially if during commuting hours.

You say that almost as if insurance or taxpayers universal healthcare (if you're in a country with UHC) would cover for it. A 6ft guy who wants surgery to be 6ft 6 has to be considered cosmetic plastic surgery that ought to be payed out of one's own pocket. Anything else would be sheer madness.

As someone who's had it himself, I feel obliged to warn you that orthopedic surgery is extremely painful. It's supposed to be the most painful surgery there is even. Although I guess it's hard to describe and you won't really know it until you've really felt it. I'm still in pain after two years and I probably will be for as long as I live.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 24/Nov/24

Rob, it will be my birthday on Friday. I'll be 30 years old! I know it may be too soon to start worrying about this, but at what age should i worry about shrinking? And if i can't have the surgery, what can i do to decrease height loss? I know i will never be able to prevent shrinking altogether, as that's impossible.
Editor Rob
Just keep physically active, walking and not doing lots of activities that put tremendous strain on your spine. You could make it to your 50's without any loss.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 24/Nov/24
@Canson Well, personally i don't feel tall at 6'0", let alone 'solid' tall, especially with guys my age. It just seems like the average height is increasing, nowadays theres far too many guys over 6'0" for me to feel particularly tall. And i dont even see that many guys shorter than me nowadays. (im from the UK btw) But anyway, to each their own. I got measured at 202cm in my platform boots with lifts. I actually felt good at being almost 6'8"! I dont think it's as bad as people make it out to be, and I'm being serious! I really do think that. Yeah i had to duck under a lot of doorframes, but it wasn't that big of a deal. Infact i much prefer it over my real height! I might even choose to be 6'8" when I have the surgery, that's if they will allow me to have it. We'll see what happens.
Canson said on 23/Nov/24
ConnorS-6'0 said on 20/Nov/24
@Canson I don't agree with that. 6'0" is slightly above average at best. But really, its just solid average. Nowadays, there's just too many guys over 6'0" for me to feel tall. The only time i feel tall is when im around guys that are 5'7" and shorter. But most of the time im seeing a lot of guys that are way taller than 6'0" and some that are my height or slightly taller. There's no way 6'0" is tall today, let alone solid tall! It used to be tall back in the 1930's and 1940's and earlier, but not anymore, though. 6'0" is basically the new 5'10". I have got a hospital appointment on the 6th of December, and I'll be asking the Doctor or nurse for it. I really hope they will let me have the surgery! Wish me luck!

I don’t agree with you Connor on 6’ being avg but to each its own.. A decent strong 6’ looks tall to most. Not short. You’re pretty much there. Just a 1/8” under at night. but Good luck. I will say there are no benefits (other than me being accustomed to being 6’4”) that a 6’4 guy has over 6’0” if not using the height for something. You’re talking about excessive heights like 6’6 or 7. Most guys will say 6’2 is perfect some my size or taller 6’4”. I’m fine with 6’4 myself being used to it and I see near the 6’5 mark (just under it now or right at it at best) out of bed so it’s not bad either but I’ll def take 6’4 over 5. But beyond 6’5 maybe 6’6 the benefits you get from your height begin to peter out. To me 6’5 flat strong 6’5 is really it. In the 6’6 range you have problems if you wear boots etc ducking under doors

@Connor6'0 6'0 is a great height. at close to 6'1 i feel fairly tall most places, though i would also call you tall. I dont notice much of a difference. But 5'11 range is more slightly above average. Your good
@Canson 6'0 is generally tall but I think "solid" tall is more like 6'2
Rory said on 23/Nov/24
Yh I don't believe those who get leg lengthening truly will find happiness afterwards..one hang up and insecurity will then just be replaced by another and the cycle goes on. At 6ft w,e issues you have in life your height isn't part of it,it's a diversion.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 23/Nov/24
@c-mo 176-177cm I appreciate your concern, but I'm 100% certain it's what i want. I'm still going ahead with it.
ZDA said on 23/Nov/24
Rob would you say 181 cm is tall in uk?
Editor Rob
Tallish, but amongst the younger crowd it's still in solid average-upper average range.
Bandz said on 23/Nov/24
What is the average eye level for taller male?
Editor Rob
Once you get to 6ft 4-5 you are looking at 5 inch being more typical.
Andrea said on 22/Nov/24
I already asked you in the past, Rob, but for every person from the HC which celebrity (amongst the ones you met of course) do you think would measure as close as possible to them? And what about Big Adam, Al and Lewis, and maybe even Josh and yourself?
Editor Rob
At the moment that would take me a while to think of.

@connor

leg lengthening surgery at 6'0 ? wtf O_o

6'0 is a perfect height . and it is not short at all . it is actually above average

dont do it mate

at 6'0 you will be taller than a good amount of men . but you dont have to be taller than most men anyway . it is not about being the tallest guy around you know. a height is not any less perfect when you dont tower other men . you dont need to be insecure at 6'0 . you should rather be thankful to be 6'0 . i am 5'9.25 evening and i dont feel short . and if i could choose a height to be it would be either 5'11 or 6'0

work on your insecurities instead . the surgery is expensive and the process afterwards is painful and draining . and if i am not wrong it is very typical to have athletic problems afterwards . for example you will not be able to run well anymore if i remember right ..i think i read this somewhere

dont do this to yourself
ConnorS-6'0 said on 22/Nov/24
@ConnorS-6'0 Oh yeah I've seen that guy before. He's now 6'6" or 6'6.5 I believe? I wonder if that's how tall I will be?
Henrik said on 22/Nov/24
I think someone with an eye level of 180cm should normally be about 192cm tall. I guess they could at most be like 195cm if they would have a really big forehead. You'd come off as shorter than you really are with a low eye level.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 21/Nov/24
@Rob How tall could i end up being when or if i have the surgery?
Editor Rob
There was a guy on the LiveLifeTaller channel who was already close to your height and wanted to become very tall. It's been mentioned on here in the past, Click Here.
Torrinator said on 21/Nov/24
@Tallmarcs

One that stands out to me is Costas Mandylor he went from 5’11” to 5’9 1/4” after Rob met him in person I believe.
Alex 6'5 said on 21/Nov/24
Height inflation seems to have gotten into connors head. 6'0 is definitely still easily above average/tall depending of the country. And by no means can you say that 6'0 is short. Thats pure madness. Instead of the surgery work on your insecurities.
Matt6 said on 21/Nov/24
Hi. What would you say is the maximum height a person could be with 180cm eye level?
Robbe said on 21/Nov/24

6ft is still a tall height in England, a bigg majority of men are sub 6ft than those 6ft or over.
Hicars said on 20/Nov/24
Rob whats your height sonetime after eating a big Thanksgiving meal?!
Editor Rob
I don't think I've noticed anything different after such a big meal. However, if you are sitting on a wooden chair that doesn't have the best ergonomics, that might effect your height a tiny amount after the meal.

ConnorS-6'0 said on 20/Nov/24
@Canson I don't agree with that. 6'0" is slightly above average at best. But really, its just solid average. Nowadays, there's just too many guys over 6'0" for me to feel tall. The only time i feel tall is when im around guys that are 5'7" and shorter. But most of the time im seeing a lot of guys that are way taller than 6'0" and some that are my height or slightly taller. There's no way 6'0" is tall today, let alone solid tall! It used to be tall back in the 1930's and 1940's and earlier, but not anymore, though. 6'0" is basically the new 5'10". I have got a hospital appointment on the 6th of December, and I'll be asking the Doctor or nurse for it. I really hope they will let me have the surgery! Wish me luck!
Tarif the Majesty said on 20/Nov/24
In this video, can you analyze my height, Rob sir? I measured at 6'3.5" here. What do you think? Happy International Men's day!

You have to watch your heels, they rise up a bit when measuring. Also, I wold ditch the envelope in favour of a can.

@Rob
I hope you’re well, have you seen the email I sent to you?
Editor Rob
I had a look and think I saw a brief one mid september, but nothing else.
Andrea said on 19/Nov/24
"Editor Rob
He looks at least an inch shorter than Dynamo.

Giant guard could be 6ft 7 there."

Is that based on Raphael being 5'5.5 then? If around 5'6, I'd have said at least 6'8 range for the guard at a glance... I mean, would you say a Arie Dekker looks taller with you?
Editor Rob
If Raphael was weak 5ft 6 then yeah I can see the guard that tall. Would say Dekker seems taller in comparison to myself - he does have a longer head than the guard.
Andrea said on 19/Nov/24
At this point I'm kinda afraid to say that, but... glad to see you back, Rob. Again. 😬
In case you've forgotten, can you now take a look at those names I've mentioned last time, especially Murray Bartlett, Will Sharpe and Daniel Ings, who are all definitely worth an add IMO? And I'll also throw in Renate Reinsve, who I've already requested a few times and recently seen her again in that Presumed Innocent show with Jake Gyllenhaal...
Editor Rob
Murray I can see 5ft 11 range, he isn't much taller than someone like Offerman.
Matt99 said on 19/Nov/24
Hey Rob, which celebrity would you want to measure under the seca 213 the most?

I think Tom Cruise would be top of my list to measure...before he starts shrinking!
Arch Stanton said on 19/Nov/24
No worries Rob, good to see comments back again!
Shox said on 19/Nov/24
Hi Rob. Would you say that legit 193cm/6'4 person is considered tall in Finland? I am 193cm and i barely even feel tall when walking in the public. I guess my low eye level affects that as well.
Editor Rob
Yes, at that height in Finland you are still very tall.
Tallmarcs said on 18/Nov/24
Who is the biggest upgrade and downgrade you have done ROb?
Editor Rob
There might have been the odd error where I spotted it pretty fast, but there's probably been a few early changes of 2 inches!
Gerald S said on 18/Nov/24
It’s great to be back, Rob. I hope you’re well and that the move went smoothly. I look forward to requesting, seeing and commenting on a variety of new additions on CelebHeights (best website in the world).
Editor Rob
ConnorS-6'0 said on 3/Oct/24
@Andrea I definitely felt average last weekend when i was out with my dad. There were quite a few guys around the same height as me, some were slightly taller. But i also saw a lot of guys who were way over 6'0" like 6'3"-6'4" and even taller. I definitely did not feel tall back then!

I respect your opinion about the surgery, but i still want the surgery despite the pain and potential risks that come with it. You only get one life so why not? I'd rather be happy than be insecure for the rest of my life.
Rapha said on 3/Oct/24
Hi Rob

Some people with your heights stats, would go for a height of 174 cm as it might be a height you measure at 10 am or 11 am in the morning or possibly still around lunch. Have you ever claimed 174 cm or 5 foot 8.5 inches?
Editor Rob
I never really claimed 174cm, I always stuck with the 173cm mark.
Editor Rob said on 2/Oct/24
Apologies guys for the comment being turned off again :(
A lot of unexpected issues surrounding selling our house and buying a new home have come up and need my fullest attention.
Canson said on 2/Oct/24
@Connor: that’s a risky surgery and not sure if the benefits are really worth the risk and the $$$$. I can see feeling short at 5’5 or 5’6 but 6’0” is solid tall. But to each its own
Progking185 said on 2/Oct/24
Nice to be back!
@Connor6'0 looks like those shoes give more than 7 inches, you look 6'8+ in shoes there. For cosplay thats a good height for Vader. If you measure 6'7-6'8 in shoes you'd look like a good 6'6 range guy.
Also I wouldnt advise on getting surgery to be taller, 6'0 is already a great height.

@Rapha I am 6'0.5 at night, or little above. I add a 1/4 inch as I measure 6'0.75/185 during most of the day. Mornings I'm 6'1. I just claim 6'1 to anyone who asks.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 2/Oct/24
Any plans to meet more celebrities Rob?
Editor Rob
I would like to, because there are some cons in Scotland now which had great guests!
Abdur-Rehmaan said on 2/Oct/24
Hey Rob Paul Does Shoe/Trainer Size Indicate Your Height Or Have Some Correlation I Am Size 12.5 Or 12 Ppl Guess What 6'1 Or 6'2 I Was Wondering Do U Have A Rough Idea Average Shoe Size For Strong 6'1 Or 6'1 And A Half I'm 190 Lbs As Well.
Editor Rob
There is a correlation. You'd typically expect a fair proportion of men that height range to be near to size 11.5-12US.
Epik said on 2/Oct/24
Rob, I noticed on your celebheights hoodie merch, you have an element symbol of "C" at the beginning of the word. Were you a big chemistry guy growing up?
Editor Rob
Nah, it was just the Breaking Bad font I used!

I actually donated my original blue hoodie to some charity, so maybe somebody is wearing that one today. I still have a green and dark blue. If I ever make new videos again in the future (any videos I put up on Youtube were made a year ago), I will switch to my green hoodie.

@Andrea I'm actually thinking about getting the limb lengthening surgery one day, if i ever get enough money for it, i wouldn't mind being taller. Nowadays when im in the town centre i get quite a lot of guys taller than me, at times i can feel average and even short on rare occasions! I swear guys are getting taller! It feels like its getting to the point that 6'0" isn't even a tall height anymore! It's starting to feel like the new 5'10"! However i dont think I would want to be 6'6" though, that's way too tall. Id prefer to be 6'2", 6'3", 6'4" or even 6'5" but no more than that. I'd only want to be extremely tall for my Darth Vader cosplay, but not for everyday living! I can imagine how difficult and problematic it would be being that tall n



Connor you do realise being tall in general is not good for health or longevity?
Alex 6'5 said on 2/Oct/24
Rob, what is your opinion to "height inflation"? I have noticed that so many people in internet seem to be at least 6'0 nowadays and people dont even consider 6'3-6'4 guy that tall anymore because of height inflation. I am 6'5 and my 6'3 friend looks very tall from a distance and i rarely see people taller than him even in a country where the average is a bit over 5'11 for young males..I feel like most people dont have any clue of heights nowadays.
Editor Rob
Height inflation impresses nobody. Height honesty is the way to go!

I hope I've done my bit for spreading it.
Torrinator said on 2/Oct/24
So Rob, is it fine to go with a facing stadiometer measurement if you can stand better that way? Don’t want to feel like I’m cheating haha
Editor Rob
Yes, unless you are on your tip-toes or tilting your head, then no reason to go with the facing method.

There's probably a certain percentage of people who have been under-measured a small fraction when standing with their back against a wall.
hysbn said on 2/Oct/24
Hey Rob.Is it too wrong to claim 6 feet if i wake up at 183.4 and go to bed at 181.3-181.4
Editor Rob
It's more of a morning range. I personally wouldn't claim that mark, unless I said '6ft in the morning'.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 2/Oct/24
@Rob It seems like i have a strong chance of measuring solid 6'10" range with the helmet on or even almost 6'11".

A good 1.5 inches between them, so I shout 6’1.5” for Vance, 6’ for Walz (at least for his peak).

Rob I wake up at 178cm and my low is 176cm, most of the time I’m sitting at 176.2cm, is 5’9.5 a fair claim?

Yes that's a perfect claim.
Alex 6'5 said on 1/Oct/24
Hi Rob. Is laying on the floor accurate method to measure myself?
Editor Rob
You can get the equivalent of a bust a gut. Just make sure heels are touching the skirting/baseboard and then put an object flush with your skull.

I did a video many years ago Click Here showing my height in that position.
Iron Mike said on 1/Oct/24
Hey. Do you know any mens running shoes that gives 1.5-2+ inches of height? Ive heard some people say that some of those Hoka running shoes can give as much as 2 inches but im quite skeptic about that..
Editor Rob
I've never tested many running shoes. 1.5 is big for any type of sneaker and a lot of them will lose 0.2 inches after months of wear.

At the moment I've worn the Air Max 270's for 6 months solid and they dropped about 1/4 an inch, albeit I really do a lot of walking each day so my 6 months of wear is probably 3 years on average!
Andrea said on 1/Oct/24
Rob, here's a brief video of that Raphael Rowe guy I've mentioned a few times with Dynamo: Click Here
To me he easily looks shorter, how much is the question, but if Dynamo is 5'6.5 himself (which is what you said was possible for Raphael), I'd really rule out 5'6+ and say that he could well be more of a weak one, like I've said before, don't you think?
Speaking of him, how tall do you think this massive guy with him could be? Click Here
Editor Rob
He looks at least an inch shorter than Dynamo.

Giant guard could be 6ft 7 there.
Andrea said on 1/Oct/24
Connor, even though I do think that 6' is a very good height for which you should never worry about in life, I don't doubt some people that tall still wouldn't mind being taller. But one thing is not minding, another thing is wanting it so much to the point of undergoing such a surgery, which for me is just unthinkable and definitely not worth the trouble.
As far as your perception about height goes, unless you moved to Netherlands or something, I find it hard to believe that at 6' you feel average, let alone short... Although it always depends on the situation of course, 6' still IS comfortably taller than average pretty much everywhere, so you're probably just focusing too much on taller people, and height in general IMO.

Do you only list eighths if celebs been measured at that?
Editor Rob
Generally, it is quite rare. Although I think sticking to the 1/4's is probably enough. Maybe if somebody says a whisker/smidge under or over a figure then they have a good chance of having measured 7/8th or 1/8th.
ConnorS-6'0 said on 30/Sep/24

You can seem near 6ft 9. Difficult to guess how much might be added by the camera against the tape.

@Andrea, looks like Diego's been added!
Torrinator said on 30/Sep/24
Rob, I know in the past you’ve said you should get the same measurement facing a stadiometer as standing with back against it. However I seem to consistently get 2mm less with back against, I did check the base of mine with a spirit level and it seems to not be perfectly level (meaning when back against heels are lower than toes compared to the opposite when standing facing). Could this account for the difference and which should I go with? Hope that makes sense btw.
Editor Rob
All it takes is the floor being off a couple of mm in one place to cause that. It's when you start getting half inch or more differences. That suggests a bigger slope or simply standing better one way when measuring.

Hey Rob! Could you give your estimate on how tall this guy is? (Strongman Mika Törrö) He claims to be 205cm/6'9 but is clearly shorter than Thor in this picture. Click Here
Editor Rob
It looks like his head is a little further back from Thor. Just from glancing at some photos, I wouldn't have guessed as tall as 6ft 9, maybe similar to Thor.
Hicars said on 30/Sep/24
Rob Knowing I am 6'1.375 and you are 5'8.125 I think you might come up to the middle area of my nose right?
Editor Rob
With an ideal photo it would look around that range. If the camera was lower, a chance of looking closer to tip of nose.
Rapha said on 29/Sep/24
Hi Rob

Would you say that stating your low evening height is underrating your height as you are taller than that for at least half of the day you are awake?
Editor Rob
It can depend on how much you shrink in total. With a smaller morning to evening, it's not going to really effect things, but I guess if you had 1.25 inch shrinkage, then there's going to be a half inch difference.
