I met the president before the 2004 election. Shook his hand and stood face to face with him. I'm 5'11" and definitely recall being surprised that he was taller. The doctor's records look accurate. (PS i looked into his eyes and saw a good man) - :)

He appears to be slightly shorter than Michelle Obama. I'm sure she had on high heels but I also imagine he was wearing cowboy boots. When you see him in pictures, he's nearly always the shortest one of the men and often appears to be shorter than the woman. I can't imagine he's much taller than 5'7"...minus the boots.

I love Bush first of all, so my guess on his height is not bias because I think he is shorter than 5'11, maybe 5'10 or a little over. I remember seeing a pic that had a bunch of 6'0+ politicians and Bush looking very small next to them, several inches shorter and it said "guess bush forgot his lifts that day". Might of just been a Bush-Hater making a joke who knows, but President of the US is a very powerful position, I've heard lots of them need to be seen as a strong powerful leader so they get face lifts and wear elevator shoes to help appearance, they prolly each polish their looks to the extreme, which is a good thing. Personally I think Mccain is more 5'7 max, but he's got my vote...

Here is Bush with Lance Armstrong: Click Here Now, Lance has been medically examined as is a legit 5ft9.5 (177cm). We can't see their footwear, but Bush has him by a bit so I agree with 5ft11 (180cm). Saying he's 5ft6-7 is just plain ridiculous.

If Bush got already measured 5'11 3/4" one time, then he's around 6 feet in the morning. Stating his height as 6 feet wouldn't be wrong because he is almost two inches shorter than Arnold Schwarzenegger and if Arnold was 6'1 1/2", then Bush has to be something around 6 feet.

Bush only looked a max of 2 inches taller than the 5-7 MCcain when they met at the White House. They were photographed standing together and there was very little height difference. Bush's real height is 5-9.

5ft 11 isn't tiny either Ja Z not laughable tiny. He looks the same height as Tony Blair in their many meetings and Blair is 6ft I recall. So I guess his 5ft11.5-.75 claim will be about right. When he says he is the little guy it's because his family members are taller than him.

Bush is only 2 inches taller than McCain. McCain's biographies state he is 5'7". I think he used lifts to look almost 5'9" at his debates with the much taller Romney. But it is well documented for years that he is 5'7". Bush is a strong 5'9" who occasionally uses lifts or cowboy boots to look 5'11"ish.

Tucker Carlson estimated him at 5-10 when interviewed on Bubba Love Sponge radio show.
About national averages below: When countries list their averages, they are listing all adults, even old people who have shrunk. It is clear that the average 20something is going to be taller, maybe even more than an inch taller than this average. I would bet the average American 20something is near 5-11 now and can believe the 6-1 claims of some Europeans.

People in the north (Groningen & Friesland) are about 3 cm taller then people from the south, in the bigger city's the people are also about 3 cm taller. So when you walk in Amsterdam you'll see that most YOUNG male adults 17 - 30 are 6'2 (1.88 m) Compared to the dutch avarage (1.85 m) you'll see a gap of 3 cm... So the avarage is surely not below 5'11...

The picture with McCain (who is listed everywhere as 5'7) shows a maximum height difference of 2 inches, proves once and for all, that Bush is no more than 5'9 barefoot. When he would appear with 6'0 Tony Blair, he was certainly wearing lifts to boost his height.

GWB's father GHWB is widely acknowledged to be 6'2". (Or was. At 83, he might not be anymore.) Looking at photos of the two of them together, it's hard to believe GWB is taller than 5' 10" -- if that.

in this image BUSH looks almost identical to my height, too bad he's standing on grass but he doesn't look short either.
he's surely no less than 5'11 FOR SURE.

"5-11 is getting to be little. For teens and early 20s guys in America, I bet the average height is 5-11."
wait first you say its little then you say its average. If its average or even withing 2 inches of average its not "little".

No, 5'11'' is not little. In the US, you would have to be less than 5'9.25'' to be considered under-average height. I seriously doubt the president looks taller than 5'10.5'' and if celebrities can put down exaggerated heights in their CVs, presidents can too.
This wouldn't be the first time this president exaggerated information.

It's actually possible to get pics with either looking taller. Bush is 5'11 or close to it in my view because he looked only an inch shorter than Blair.

Hey Rob how about adding the now presumptive GOP nominee Senator John McCain. I know you're not big on political figures, but Hillary is here. McCain, now in his 70s, personally doesn't look anything past 5'8" to me, but 5'9" may be a fairer starting point for him.

If Bush was 5 ft 11.75 in at his measurements, then his real height is 6 feet. Hours have passed when he got measured and the real height is the height after out of bed. Bush is 6 feet at least but looks rather short.

President Bush doesn't know how to receive a handoff.. you're supposed to raise the inside arm so that the quarterback can jam the ball into your stomach. with that aside, maybe he said little guy when referring to 5'11 because he knows that he's really around 5'9? heck 5'9 isn't even that little..

If Leak was measured 5'11 3/4 likely it was in the morning so he may be really 5'11 1/4-5'11 1/2 only but the picture is favoring him but he still would have at least 1-1.5 inches on Bush. Bush is 5'10 I think.

Regarding the above quote, 5' 11" is not little; it's slightly taller than average. Which Bush is not.
Barefoot, he can't be over 5' 9" at most. He should be downgraded. If the White House physicals list him as 5' 11.5", they are measuring him with his Tony Lama boots on.

I have my doubts on Troy Smith being 6-0, actually lol. I joke that he stood on his tip toes when they measured him. He just physically looks 5-10-5-11. But anyway can we somehow verify that they are standing on even ground? That picture could go a long way because Bush looks 2 inches shorter at the very least next to a measured 5-11 3/4 person. Maybe 2.5 in total.

Who agrees?
Arnold is taller than Bush because he is taller than a 5-11 man. End of.

And he seems equal or a little shorter than Gordon Brown, 5'11" officially.

Editor Rob do you trust your government are telling the truth, maybe I should trust them on this and just give him his due of 5ft 11.75 peak. I mean, the government have no reason to lie now...

i feel he is 178cm without shoes, looks 181cm with shoes. Romano Prodi is 168cm no shoes and 172-173cm in shoes.

Yes Rob, but if someone sees an unexpected result like that, you would think they would assume uneven ground was the reason, not leap on it as fact.

Editor Rob I just looked again - it's hard to see how much the path could be giving, but I notice in more than one pic Brown is kind of giving himself a leg up - here

It's total nonsense to day Brown is 2-3 inches taller than Bush. There are pics from the summit where they look the same size, pics where Brown looks taller and pics where Bush looks taller. It depends on camera angle, who is slouching and whether the ground is even. This vid Click Here
suggests at the outset that Brown is around an inch taller, but I've seen a pic and that path isn't even. Later in the vid we see them shaking hands after the press conference (2m 48s) and walking off and, if anything, Bush looks to have the edge. In any case, talk of Brown being 2-inches taller is ridiculous.

Editor Rob people were going by the part where they walked from chopper and then stopped and posed. At that moment brown did appear a good 2 inches taller, but ground uneven.

Hey MD excellent point, I also posted the vid on the height request page, always thought Brown was 5'11 but he looks a even 6', I've seen quite a few vids on tv of Brown walking with Blair over the last few weeks what with all the retrospectives on Blair and all and he just looks the same height, one or two times he even looked 1" taller!
He's easily taller than Bush by 2-3 inches, your photo shows that. Looks like Bush was told that Brown was shorter than Blair and therefore wouldn't need his lifts, wooops!

He is a legit 5'10.5"(178.5), but no way 5'9", so maybe the 5'11" claimed was correct for when in his 20's and 30's. Certainly not a "little guy" like he claims; maybe he feels small 'cause his dad and recent former Presidents were giant? Compare him to Tony Blair here Click Here - there is around 1.5 inch difference (photo from May 2006).
Check out Tony Blair's page on this site....he's a certain 6ft dead!

I'm a third year medical student. In my past year of clinical rotations, I have never seen an adult's height be measured, whether it's in the hospital or in a doctor's office. I think the only reason it would be done is if one complained about height loss due to osteoperosis. When you see someone's height written on a medical report, it's self-reported.

He must be given a current height 5-10 3/4 and a peak height of 5-11. :P Seriously though I'll try to find the article - it was an online one.
Same way Clinton became 6ft 2.5, maybe Bush got the benefit of out of bed measurement...surely your government doesn't lie about such a trivial thing as the President's height. I mean if they lie about something like that...what else they feeding the american folk!!!

Viper, he was actually 'measured' at 6'0" and then later at something like 5'11.5", I think. But, it's quite obvious the doctors were boosting him. They even said barefoot, but if that were the case, Bush would routinely look 6'1" or over, and he never does.

There's an element of randomness in genetics (assortment), which is why people's siblings aren't exactly like they are. There's also regression towards the mean. I don't think there is anything weird about GWB's father and brother being a few inches taller than he is, and no real reason to suspect his growth was "stunted". My guess is GWB is between 5'10" and 5'11".

MD, good point, he is the weakest 5ft11 I've seen as well. The man in shoes or lifts would be 6ft0.5-6ft1,and yet he always seems to look short. Is every bureaucrat in Washington 6ft and over,lol? If you watched the State of the Union, I always found it interesting when he came out, and made his way to the podium shaking hands as he went how little he looked. Now in a sea of people 5ft11 is not going to stand out in a big way like a 6ft3 guy, but still he looked short and stocky. The same goes for pics of him w/other diplomats he always looks the shortest. I wonder why he refers to himself as a little guy, maybe he does have a complex because of his tall family?

Jack says: "5'9 is not short and neither is 5'11."
That's true in the US where average census height is 5' 10" and that is purely anecdotal. And the average height in the US is not going up, although the weights are going through the roof. (Rob, when are you going to start "Celebweights.com"?) THAT would be a fun one!...

on the news about a year ago they had a story about W's health. He had just gotten a physical, and they reported that he measured just a shade under 6' and i think they said he weighed something like 180. so 5'11 should be pretty accurate.

That O'Reilly photo is a bad photoshop job. Look to the right of the pointer. You can see a line where the photo was cut and Bush's section was shifted down. Looks like someone from CBS still hasn't found work.

He's really much shorter than his father and his brother. Logically, he should have been approximatively the same height like them, according to "genetics rules".

Franco, Spielberg is exactly what confused me about the photo, but I definitely agree with you about Bush's height, and it doesn't really have much to do with Bush, personally, as rather I can't think of where height would be more important than as an American president if even its only squeezing out an inch or two. He can't be over 5'9" barefoot, and it would be absolutely foolish to think that he doesn't wear lifts.

Bush looks 5' 9". His father was 6' 2" in his younger years, and there is a photo out there depicting the two of them with GWB in his military uniform...Father is at least 4-5 inches taller than son. (Could explain Dubya's "Napoleon Complex".)

I just met him yesterday in in Jakarta, Indonesia. I am 165 cm or 5'4" and being stand in front of him, i think he's around more than 175 cm (5'7"), but certainly less than 180 cm..

I would say that there is at least, a minimum of 8 inches in height difference between Bush and O'Reilly. one thing is for sure Arnie is not 6'2. time for a downgrade to at least 5'10 for Bush.

Yeah, that O'Reilly picture really got me, as well, as Bush barely even looks 5'9" there. And, it's not that the angle is that bad, either. Either O'Reilly is siginficantly taller than 6'4" or Bush is shorter than 5'11".

I am doubting that Bush is 5-11. he certainly wears lift.
he does not look like more than 5-8 to me.i once saw him with larry king, who is stated as 5-7, and i did not realize much height difference.

I have to agree. El Presidente looks really short compared to O' Reilly. I have a friend who is also six four and I looked at some photos of myself next to him. (I am 5'10") Honestly, I don't appear as short in those photos as Bush does next to O' Reilly. So either Bill is taller than 6'4" or Bush is shorter than he states.

O'Reily is known for his height, so that really shouldn't be a surprise. What is a surprise is how short Bush looks, there.

Yeah, I agree. I'd say it's most likely Bush was shorter than O'Reilly being taller. However, if Bush is 5'11", 5" is still a LOT taller and appears so. O'Reilly looks a big guy too which adds to it. I had a friend who was around 6'3" and he looked really big to my 5'11".

I saw the O'reilly video. Either Bill is taller than 6-4 or Bush is shorter than 5-11. Id say Bush is 5-10 tops, and even that could be a stretch. O'relly had a ton of height over him.

Ralph, when he said "I'm the little guy" he was probably referring to the Bush Family. Remember, #41 Jeb are 6'3", and as for the the other Bush brothers, I'm not sure. George is probably jujst the shortest of all of them.

Oh and btw,
This guy I know, the first time I met him he appeared like a giant to me...which the bigger something is, the more sub-concious space and importance you place on it...yet when I saw him in a casual sense he was my height...so he had probably been wearing lifts. The opinion I formed was a scientific one when making a judgement about someone upon first meeting them.

Of course Gotxo, it has a lot to do about image too. Like when you see behind any facade in advertising, the people who stimulate us to go out and buy their product, who make us feel inferior and needy of their product(some), are usually cavemen/women themselves in evolutionary terms. So it's funny this revenge they have on the rest of the population, everyone else feel worse with fake images and whatnot.
So a lot of the time we're asked to marvel at these people and be in awe of the image peddled for them (by media baloney like you say) when really it's all a smokescreen and these people aren't superhuman, but just like ourselves in every way.
Anonymous, it says a lot that you were willing to get all uppity about my comment which was said in jest, but yes guessing the height of something is scientific and a good way to kill some time; I bet you just can't wait to return to your Hot Grandas site of choice after being all holier-than-thou here.
Why's it interesting, I'm surprised than women have anything left to talk about after all the countless image magazines they're barraged with. One.

Fair enough..it's science. Guessing who has something inside their shoes and whether or not puffy hair gives the illusion of height. Right up there with string theory. The power of the image? Perhaps. Still interesting that all comments are almost exclusively male-generated. No harm though..whatever floats your boat. And I do admit it's a better site than most. Worth a look for one shot of 'the 5-8 Glen' standing next to Joey Ramone, alone. More power to you.

I personally think 5'10" with 5'10.5" being a good compromise. I think he needs to be treated just like every other celebrity on this site. Let's take into consideration first the "2-inch" rule, then take into consideration that this guy is a politician (they'll tell you almost anything more often than not), and the fact that he gave himself 5'11". I think taking that all into account, and the fact that he's clearly and overcompensator that 5'11" is most likely a regular shoe height. I personally don't see him as anything over 5'10" barefoot, but could accept a 5'10.5". 5'11" just seems so out of the question, for me, as a barefoot height, especially if he gave himself that height. I also assume that as with most modern presidents, probably, that the doctors giving phyiscals add at least and inch to their president's height.

bush would lie about his height the same way he'd lie about his body-fat percentage, how much he can bench-press and how fast he can run or ride a bike. not to mention lying about national security threats, etc. why? because he's a pathological liar, and because he can get away with it...except out here in the distant blogosphere.
i think he's about 5'10'. now...you know who really looks short? the gnomish donald rumsfeld. standing next to bush, he looks like a garden troll! not that there's anything wrong with that.
