Exactly same height as Rob. Rob usually downplays his own height, he's quite modest, more like 5'8.25-5'8.5 for Rab, Both of them scraping 5'8.5

"He was pretty much similar range" that calls for 5ft 8.25, he looks a hair shorter than Rob actually but taller than Jenny, who I assume had less footwear or camera disadvantage.

How in the heck is this guy listed at 5'8.5"? Lol. The Kid's alleged 5'7.5" estimate seems closer to the truth than 5'8.5"
Editor Rob
He once popped up on Friends, you can see him with Matthew Perry

Didn't watch Glee but he's certainly a familiar face in general. He actually looks shorter than Rob here though.

He looks not 5 ft 8.5. He looks more like a flat 5 ft 8 here. Maybe it's his posture what make him shorter.

I met Iqbal Theba... I'm 5'7" without shoes (5'7.5" in the morning, hey, every bit counts). Iqbal was a 1/2 inch taller tops, we were very close in height (I'd be exactly the same if I had a bit thicker shoes). So looks like Rob must be about 5'7.5" without shoes too.


Rob, someone calling you out?
Editor Rob
