English Youtuber 'Behzinga', who is part of the sidemen. He claimed "Five-Eight with shoes" in a video, and on twitter "I’m 5’8".
Untold said on 27/Nov/24
I’m not completely dismissing the odds he’s 7.25 since he might pull it off if he’s lucky. I just think claiming to be 5’8 in shoes and at times looking within a cm of Tobi lessens the odds of him measuring 171cm in my mind. His height difference with Tobi is almost an exact reverse of Tobi’s with Vik so knowing Tobi got 169.2 and Vik got 168 that’d make Ethan 170.4. Then again I also felt Tobi’s measurement was very harsh so by that logic Ethan might still measure near 7.25. We most likely won't find out if he's a tiny fraction over 5'7 or a more solid 5'7 though since I think he's eager to keep his 5'8 claim, especially with some of the thicker soles I've seen him in lately (then again Tobi's no better)

@Untold Yeah actually, I do believe now that Deji is taller than Ethan. I think because they're so close in height that's why Ethan thought he was taller since he was with the boost. Also, he was closer to the camera than Deji so that definitely also gave Ethan a slight advantage to add onto the footwear. I think Deji at 171 and Ethan at 170 is perfect because Ethan doesn't look more than a cm taller than 169 measured Tobi, but Deji clearly looks taller than 170 listed Floyd Mayweather and was taller than Speed when he was 170 at the time.

In the clip where everyone is saying Ethan edged out Deji he had on much thicker sneakers meanwhile Deji was in sandals, if you look at the clip here you can see their footwear in that video

now that deji's got an upgrade, would you also upgrade behzinga?
Cooper Clarke said on 27/Apr/24
@5’11James I honestly can't see anything else other than 170. He's for sure taller than Tobi by about half an inch. This listing is perfect for me. In that scene with him and Deji, Ethan was defo closer to the camera, so he could actually be shorter than Deji.
5'11james said on 25/Apr/24
169-171
Cooper Clarke said on 9/Sep/23
Hey Rob, is a fraction over 5’7 possible for Ethan, like at least 5’7.25? In the scene where 5’7 listed Deji (who I could see being 5’7.25) kissed him, Ethan looked slightly taller than Deji, however was definitely closer to the camera than him, though he did say he was taller than Deji. Your take on this? I do think it's quite close between the two them though.
Editor Rob
7 or 7.25, either would be arguable.
Cooper Clarke said on 8/Sep/23
@5'11james Faith did claim that Ethan is taller than her, claiming that she's 5’7.5 and Ethan 5’8 which is how tall he claims to be.
5'11james said on 7/Sep/23
Rob, who's taller, Ethan or Faith (his girlfriend)?
Faith claims 5'7
Editor Rob
He looks taller
MR12 said on 26/May/23
Rob reckon behzinga is a stronger 5'7 after tobi's measurement and also will he get a page?
Cooper Clarke said on 29/Mar/23
@Rob
You planning to add Tobi anytime soon to complete the Sidemen? He's the only Sideman to not have a page yet and it's pretty clear that Ethan edges him out, though he is still taller than Vik.
Editor Rob
Would need to find time to look at him with others, but yeah he could be between Ethan and Vik.
Lucid said on 27/Jul/22
I got speaking with my cousin who's a genuine 5'7 and said he was probably about an inch over Ethan, with similar footwear.
I definitely think this is a 5'6-5'6 and a half guy. Take a look at the recent Sidemen dating video and Tana Mongeau comments on Ethan's height difference to her being a 'no' and he's the only one she says that to, not even Vikkstar. You can see even with his suspicious looking shoes and her flat converse, she's practically the same height as him. I think this video proves he's 5'6.

Lucid said on 23/Jul/22
Ethan's girlfriend calling him out as 5'6, what do you think?

Maybe she's downplaying him or joking?

Vik: 5 6.5
Tobi: 5 7
Ethan: 5 7.25
Harry: 5 10.5
JJ: 5 11
Josh: 6 0
Simon 6 2
Andrey200 said on 22/Apr/22
168
Plissken said on 29/Mar/22
I recall a video where he claimed he was 5'7, and I always figured he gives a 5'6 and a half maximum look at most. Interesting, he can definitely look bigger now that he's in better shape, but for some reason I see him as 5'6, same with Tobi. I also see Vikkstar as 5'5, similar to Jack P Shepherd's height.
barry 183 said on 3/Feb/22
Arteta is put down at 5'9" and if he is that tall this is how tall the sidemen can look next to him
vik 5'5"
harry 5'10"
jj 5'11'
simon 6'2"
ethan 5'6"
tobi 5'6"
Arteta has much larger footwear than the rest of them
FiveEightJake said on 6/Dec/21
That picture is odd because whilst he looks 2-3 inches taller than Toby and Ethan he looks close to 2 inches smaller than KSI and Harry & 4.5 inches smaller than Simon.
He has thick hair and them sneakers I believe are in 1.4 range.
Arteta defo between 173 and 174
Ethan and Tobes could easily be closer to 5’6 than 5’7
Blake said on 26/Nov/21
Rob, Next to Ozil he appeared atleast an inch shorter, in an interview I saw? I think arteta in that video with sidemen had significant footwear advantage because 0 % chance he is almost 5 ft 10 barefoot - he could be flat 5 ft 9 but I think 5 ft 8 is more likely could be wrong tho
Blake said on 24/Nov/21
Rob, that’s a bit weird because arteta is 5 ft 8 he had a footwear advantage in that video. But maybe Ethan is 5 ft 6 range.
Editor Rob
Wouldn't have guessed Arteta as short as 5ft 8 there
HRA102 said on 20/Nov/21
Rob, Arteta looks atleast 3 inches taller than Ethan. What do you think?

Editor Rob
He can look near 5ft 10 with the sidemen
barry 183 said on 5/Oct/21
hey @rob,
how tall do you think tobi from the sidemen is because he looks half an inch shorter than ethan so i would say 5ft 6 1/2
what do you think and would you ever add him
Editor Rob
He can look within 1cm of Ethan
GTB173cm said on 2/Oct/21
I’ve met him before and I’m 5’9.5 in my Air Max 2090s. He certainly didn’t look any more than 5’8 in his trainers. So my guess would be a weak 5’7 barefoot.
AK World said on 2/Aug/21
Hey @Rob,
Here's Ethan with Eddie Hall:

it's a sizeable gap...though to be fair, Eddie might have a little advantage with the ground a cm or bit more

Alex Gonzalez said on 22/Nov/20
@Rob, Ethan’s shorter than Joe Weller (who’s about 5’8) after checking multiple photographs. Also looks a good 3-4 inches shorter than KSI (who’s around 5’10.5)
6'3ozzy said on 20/Oct/20
rob, who would edge the other out deji or ethan
TheBat said on 7/Aug/20
Ethan's 5'7", very honest.

Hey rob, isn't this a repost since the original got taken down for some reason?
Editor Rob
He's been mentioned in comments on the site before, but was never added until June.
Black Fish 123 said on 23/Jul/20
Yees, I fully agree with @FiveEightJake
I've been watching their videos for a while and would say Josh is pretty close to 6ft. Sometimes looks bang on 183 with Miniminter, sometimes comes off as 182/181. So a pretty strong 5'11.
Tobi I'm convinced 169 or 5'6 1/2. Check him out with Ethan.
FiveEightJake said on 15/Jul/20
Why not add Josh and Toby and complete the set Rob?
Click Here
TBJZL with Roberto Carlos. Honestly has lots of good photos to guess his height and he can typically look 5’6-5’7. 5’6.5 might be a good shout, certainly not a solid 5’7 lad.
Josh seems pretty close to 6ft though solid 5’11 range is more likely.
Editor Rob
Well they've not been ruled out for a page, we'll see.
Paul Wood said on 7/Jul/20
If Anthony Joshua is 6ft 6in and the average male head length is just over 9 inches (and maybe Joshua's head is slightly longer than average), then I accept that Ethan Payne is 5ft 7in. I certainly wouldn't feel confident about quibbling just to downgrade him by a quarter of an inch.
Peter175 said on 6/Jul/20
Doesn't look too bad there with the 6'6" Joshua, actually looks at least 170cm
Rohon said on 5/Jul/20
He looks like a healthy 5'6 and 3/4ths to me though. A little more than 5'7 in the morning. Regardless, honest listing since most honest people would say 5'7. Also i consider your true height to be 4-5 hours after you get out of bed and walked at least 4500 steps. He edges out Toby by like 1/4 - 1/2 of an inch.
GTB172cm said on 5/Jul/20
5’7” is a very honest claim from him, towers Vikkstar by a good inch and looks same height as Tobi who claims 5’8 but think he’s being a bit generous unless that’s his height in shoes.
Guy66 said on 3/Jul/20
Atleast he is honest about his height unlike ksi lol
S102 said on 3/Jul/20
At least he is honest with his height, I would give him 169cm or 170cm sometimes he just doesn’t look 5’7
Z1 said on 2/Jul/20
Solid 5'7
K1 said on 30/Jun/20
I think he is a legit 5'7 he can look taller because he constantly wears lifts
OriginalAnon said on 30/Jun/20
He looks under 5'7'',

Ethan tipping his toes next to Anthony Joshua.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 29/Jun/20
I've developed quite a liking for the name Ethan because the actor guys called Ethan are great to watch, including Ethan Philips from Star Trek, Voyager, and Ethan Hawke.
Young Ethan doesn't mind being photographed with a chap who's much taller than he is, so good luck to him on that score.
5ft7 and the thumbs up for being honest enough in saying he's 5ft8 IN SHOES!
😉👍
Nickotonic said on 28/Jun/20
Makes sense, he has claimed 5'7" a handful of times, 5'7" it is!
Nik said on 28/Jun/20
I take my 🎩 off to him for his honesty!
Martin Distro said on 28/Jun/20
There was a video on the Sidemen channel with him claiming 5'7" so I think this listing is quite accurate.
