With 6'4.75" Kobe Bryant

He's a full head taller, what's that close to 10 inches? Plus he's leaning in losing some height. Even if Neymar does have less footwear he's still at least 10 inches shorter. 5'7" max!
Blake said on 4/Dec/16
I honestly think he is 172cm do you think there is a chance Rob?
Editor Rob
he has a tiny frame which adds to a perception of being comfortably average. 172cm I'm not sure, I could see at times that argument, other times he looked a solid 173cm range.
James said on 4/Dec/16
@Peter175 I think he is less than 1/2 inch taller than Bieber. 1 cm of difference between them.
Peter175 said on 4/Dec/16
5ft8 flat downgrade.
Perfect. He's about 1 and 1/2 taller than messi and 1/2 taller than Bieber
Heylo said on 9/Nov/16
He looks shorter next to 5'9 Serena Williams barefoot. Looks like a weak 5'8, strong 5'7, 171-172 range.

Rob , i think if you put neymar next to antoine griezmann , neymar would edge him , definite 174 cm for neymar. What do you think?

5'8.65 min this photo of him and Schwarzenegger he looked about 5'8.8 but just looked about 5.5 cm shorter than Schwarzenegger who looked barely 5 ft 11

@John Neymar is 175 cm this year in Barcelona page. The first one 175 and the last 2 ones 174.
rockitbaby said on 19/Oct/16
I always saw him as a 1,75 flat but he's not that taller than Messi. 1,73m seems pretty solid for me.
John said on 19/Oct/16
In Barcelona page, 174 cm for him.
MDV said on 12/Oct/16
Robbi Paul would edge him out

This picture made me change my mind about Neymar. Always seen him as a 5'9" guy but I think this listing is accurate. Doesn't look that tall next to Messi.
MS said on 25/Sep/16
Neymar looks 174 cm and maybe 173 cm before bed. He is small but doesn't look very small

I don't think he's 5'8", maybe a bit over that mark!
Johnson said on 5/Sep/16
He only looks 3.5 cm more than Messi, really...
MD said on 4/Sep/16
Nah. Along with all of the other evidence, the recent pictures with Bieber show them very close in height, and we know Bieber isn't taller than listed.
James said on 2/Sep/16
So is he the same height as you, Rob? He always gave the impression of a taller guy, let's say 5'9" as he was listed on many websites before becoming a star at Barcelona. Well, I guess the fact that he is very skinny makes him appear taller. He seems well proportioned.
Next to Lionel Messi he can appear 5'9" at times.
Editor Rob
somewhere in 173, possibly near 174 looks more likely than 175 to me.
Canson said on 2/Sep/16
@Rob: he actually looks like he may be a bit taller maybe 5'9.25 out of bed 5'8.5 at night. Around his claim Or maybe it's the hair.

Neymar with Gabigol on the right, who's listed 176cm. Even though Neymar is clearly slouching, there seems to be atleast 2 inch difference to me! (If Neymar was standing straight)
Johnson said on 27/Jul/16
@blink thanks it is at 13 minutes. Funny because Mascherano and Neymar are exactly the same in my opinion
Blink said on 25/Jul/16
@Johnson He was talking about Barcelona players.
He says: "And Mascerano, who's 1,70m and is a giant"
The interviewer then says: "How tall are you?"
He answers: "I'm 1.75... standard height for a forward... not tall not short"

Johnson said on 22/Jul/16
@Blink do you have a link to the interview? Was it in Spanish? Was he interviewed how tall are you or what was the context?
Blink said on 21/Jul/16
In an interview on June the 12th he claimed 1.75 (5'9 or 5'8.75 I think in inches?)
Johnson said on 18/Jul/16
He was measured in a clip of Barcelona his armspan (183 I think) and right on the side of his head there was a table indicating references with marks of height every 5 cms. The top of his head was around 174-175. Guessing the table starts at 170 cm tall. It is easy to guess Messi was around the end of the table wgen he was posing for armspan too
Height said on 14/Jun/16
@MD The hat position (more air space, not close to the head) on Lewis Hamilton and the fact that he is just a little closer to the camera could be adding some height to him.
MD said on 13/Jun/16
If you go to Hamilton's page, you see picture after picture showing him 171 MAX independent of the measurement you're talking about. He's not taller than listed. Point is that even if he was, it would not be by nearly enough to explain Neymar looking so short in the picture below.
Editor Rob
5ft 8 flat for neymar is always possible, when there is half inch or so between people, it isn't a great deal.
plus said on 12/Jun/16
@Rob how many cm are there between Serena and Neymar in this video?

Editor Rob
I'd say he was at most 5ft 8 there.
MD said on 9/Jun/16
Yeah, that was what I'm seeing. There barely looks to be a difference, yet they are listed at nearly an inch apart.
MD said on 7/Jun/16
@Rob,
What's going on here with 5'7.5" Lewis Hamitlon? I mean, we can see footwear and the surface is flat.
Click Here
Lewis Hamilton is listed almost and inch shorter, and from doing the research on his page, it's pretty clear he's no more than his listing. I'm confused.
Editor Rob
there doesn't look much between them...whether Hamilton is gaining anything more than a small fraction is harder to tell.
truth said on 3/Jun/16
5'8 sounds right, 5'10 with that ridiculous hair. XD
Height said on 2/Jun/16
5'8.3" / 173.5 cm in my opinion.

Pique 194cm impossible with kobe
plus said on 18/Apr/16
@175 cm I think he is 193 cm, but if Piqué was questioned: "Are you 192 cm?" and his answer was "Now I'm in 194 cm, I'm taller every time" I would rule out the possibility of him being measured in shoes.
plus said on 17/Apr/16
@175 cm (5ft 9.25)
Piqué was measured barefoot but it's an early measurement. It can happen with the very tall people. In Periscope Piqué said I think I am nowadays at 194 cm tall, saying that it was taller than before.
James St. said on 17/Apr/16
Extremely gifted, cheeky player. Wouldn't be surprised if his long arms help him with balance, acceleration (lever) and quick change of directions. His arm length to height ratio (182cm/173cm = 1.05) seems to be pretty close to that of Bruce Lee's --> 183/171 = 1.07
The Da Vinci ratio is 1:1.
Contrast that with boxing legend Rocky Marciano --> 173/178 = 0.97 who made the most of his short arms by honing his inside fighting skills.
The great Ali had a 198/191 = 1.036 ratio

@175 cm (5ft 9.25)
No, they don't say his height, they skip that part, justjust after measuring him he is measured the armspan saying 182 cm

@5ft 9.25 how do you know Neymar was measured 175 cm? Was there a video and he was told that figure?
5ft 9.25 said on 18/Mar/16
@MD
Neymar has a bad posture.
MD said on 17/Mar/16
Huh? Picture down the page, shows that if anything that difference between him and Messi is less than currently what's listed. There is no way it's more than that.
5ft 9.25 said on 14/Mar/16
At his first medical of Barcelona he got measured 175cms. Rob, you can't list him 5ft 8.25 and Messi 5ft 6.5 at the same time, this is just "wishful thinking",- cause you might favor Leo? ;)
hhhhh said on 26/Feb/16
yes adriano is 173.3cm in the medical check video so that would put neymar between 174-175cm
plus said on 19/Jan/16
He is slightly taller than Adriano who has been measured in a video in 173,3 cm
plus said on 5/Dec/15
I think he is around 174 cm most of the day. (for example 173,5 is 174 cm in practical effects and no 173 cm)

Yes, that's is true that he is 1.73m.
Andrea said on 16/May/15
MD, also look at him with Kobe... He looks almost an head shorter! 5'9 is obviously a big joke for him and 5'8 flat, as you say, is probably the most he might be!

Honestly, there isn't much to glean from these given the angle and Neymar leaning so much. But, I do think it shows how silly the 5'9" listings were.
MD said on 25/Mar/15
That's what I was thinking, a flat 5'8" for Neymar.
MD said on 23/Mar/15
Rob,
Here is a picture of Neymar (second from right) with Messi (far left):
Click Here
Is it more likely that Neymar is more a flat 5'8", or is Messi currently underlisted? I mean, if they stood side-by-side this is ever-so-slightly less than the currently 1.75" between the two, right? I'm thinking Neymar is more a flat 5'8".
Editor Rob
there can look around 1.5 between them generally, 5ft 8.25 is the most I think Neymar can typically look, 5ft 8 flat is of course just as possible.
joe 193cm night said on 14/Mar/15
I think it came out SANTOS with 20 years he was really being listed as 173cm and 174cm

Had to pleasure of seeing Neymar upclose last year! 173 is close enough to his height. I'm a strong 5'10 at evening (179 cm). Nice guy btw!

Rob can you add mario gotze ? I think he is also 173cm or 172 ?
