Yeah, beyond Peter Dinklage, lots of the other main cast of Game of Thrones is not that tall, i.e. Kit Harington, Sean Bean, Alfie Allen, Richard Madden, Emma Clarke, etc. Certainly, guys like Nairn, McCann and Whyte raise the average though.

What do you think Rob? I don't know where you got your figures from guys but if you seriously think there's as many as 20 million men over 7ft in the world you live in cloud cuckoo land. There's probably only about 50,000 men over 6 ft 7 in the world let alone 20 million over 7 ft!! I'd say it more likely to be nearer 2000 men in the world over 7 ft actually.
[Editor Rob: there will be several thousand worldwide in 7ft range]

Seriously Emil? He looks a good 4 inches taller to me.
#15 has a camera angle advantage and therefore he looks taller han 6'5 next to Rob.
Nairn, however, has a large head and the camera is probably straight. And Rob's estimation is the one I trust the most, just like you.

Ok, 6ft9 is believable, only because of his head size. Looking again, he's taller than Cudmore, but not by much. Nairn looks nearer 6'8 a lot.

He does seem to have short arms for his height, but that's only when you look and compare them to Rob's. I doubt their wingspan is such a massive difference like there is the height difference. At least the size of his head makes up for it.

Well arch stanton 6-7 is very tall and 6-8 is almost a giant in the usa . 6-9 -10 is the start of giant range in the USA. 6-6 is very tall but not a giant . 6-6 guys will look short next to real giant guys like 6-10 or 6-11. I was posting that because some people are saying in this site 6-6 is a giant .

I would say any guy over 6'10 would be considered a giant, just the same as anyone under 4'10 is considered a small person. An average height of 5'10 is bang in the middle of that, so a whole foot taller/shorter makes the most sense to me, at least that's my take on it. This guy is borderline giant, however what difference does an inch make when you're that big? In person I am sure he could easily pass as such. The guy looks fricken' huge.

Ice not true!!! My arms aren't the same as my height. Them explain how 6'5 basketball players can have 6'10-7'0 arm span. Wingspan has a deviation if at least 6 inches. I agree Nairn's arms seem to be 6'1 guy's.I explained why I think this could be.
@LG69
no giant is 6'8+ if you have to duck doors you're way bigger than most. Maybe 6'7-6'9 is giant territory and 6'10+ is giant? Rob said 6'6 to 6'7 is start of giant territory. Used to be 6'5-6'6 but obviously more people are 6'3-6'4 range nowadays so it pushes it up a bit

Arm length is not really proportional to your height, but yes, Nairn is quite particular. But he sure looks like a nice fella
Of corse arm leangth is porportional to height !!
No, it isnt. Arm pit to fist is not proportional to your height. Do you ever watch boxing? It is very common that a 5'6 boxer has the same arm length as a 5'9-5'10 guy and verse visa. Look at Floyd Mayweather. His arms are the same length as Wladimir Klitschko's even though Floyd is 5'7 and Wlad is 6'5-6'6. Finger length is more proportional to height, arm length isnt.

Yeah I still think he'd go about 1/4 over my 6'8.25 doorframes I think he can seep below 6'8.5 on a bad day. I would have dropped him to 6'8.5...maybe Rob will if he sees him again Rob seems open to 6'8.25-6'9 its so hard to pin such an enormous giant of a guy down to the very .25 of an inch, but we're making progress!

@JimB, I had a classmate who was 6'6". He was the tallest person in our school, but I wouldn't consider him a giant. Tall? Yes. Giant? No. There is another website that specifically lists giant's as 7 feet or over. In fact, Andre the Giant is on their list--just qualifying at 7 feet. Although, I think Andre would qualify as a giant even if he was 6'11" because of his sheer girth.

@ice and Fred
I think my wing span is 5'10 and I'm 6'0. I think when it happens means you're not supposed to be that tall and outgrew your potential. Like this guys arms stopped first (like most people) and he was probably supposed to be 6'5 or less and he grew almost 4 more inches due to some fluke or hormones/additives in the food. He may not be genetically tall. Wonder how tall his relatives are.
But feet are 11.5 so that's accordant to my height. Weird...

What you don't see is the size of his head. His head is so much larger than a normal one, that a lot of height is in his head, giving the impression of being shorter, just like with Andre the Giant.

nairn is 207cm I think. he is a giant. imo 6ft is where tall starts, 6'4 is where huge starts, and 6'8 is when giant starts. 7ft is where alien starts. I'm 6'5 so if I was a full grown adult i would be called huge but since I'm 15 I'm called a giant

Figuring that this big John guy is 6'1", which looks right given some of the other pictures he has compared to celebs, I'm seeing maybe about 6'8.5" in the photo with Kristian. I just don't see 9" there.
Call me crazy, but Kristian looks closer to his claim with Rob than he does with Big John, the top of Big John's head reaches Kristian's tip of the nose,and that's usually 6 inches! Now, I know that estimate is of no use here because Kristian's head is bigger than normal so his face features are larger, IMO he is 6'8.75".

Rob, if your friend is max 5'8 and he's able to reach Nairn's chin, how can Nairn even be 6'8? I mean, could this guy's head be a foot long? I dont think so. Maybe, he's just having bad posture with your friend?

Editor Rob the 5ft 8 con goer has a small head, kristian's I'd put about 11 inches long (not including any double chin, but just to end of chin bone)...so he can definitely look no more than about 6ft 8 with people, there was a 5ft 7 guy who looked about the same as me in his photo.

I don't buy this guy at 6-10 with Rob but he could be a legit 6-9 . By the way a legit 6-9 is in the giant range . 6-9 6-10 is the start of giant in the USA.

I think up in this range, it's hard to estimate. This guy coul really pass for around 6'9" but not over. Probably needs a slight downgrade.

His head looks to be right around an inch longer than Robs by using the screen on my phone to measure them. His head looks bigger than that because it's also wide. Because of the size of his head and where Rob's friend comes to I would put him around 6'8" or a touch over. I would accept Red's 6'8.25" guesstimate.

Some people seem to including his double chin as part of his head...his actual chin starts about 2-3 inches above Rob's head. I'd say at least 6'9.

good point 6'8.5 is fair i think maybe claim 6'9 but he'd be a weak one. i think you are right he LOOKS 6'8 zone but may measure 6'8.6 or something weird. if that Big John guy really isnt over 6'1 then you are right he could be strong 6'8 at most, look here: Click Here i think you are on to something he may be 6'9 in morning and 6'8 by mid afternoon

[Editor Rob: I'd have to add 3cm to my height as I'm dropping height in my back here.
what's probably more interesting might be another guy I know who isn't over 5ft 8, look at him standing normally beside kristian Normally with Nairn...up to his chin]
so you would probably go over his chin! this proves it i think if this guy is 5'7.75 only.

Height difference does look very similar with Kingma. I'd guess 6'9.5" too. But seriously anything under 6'9" much less under 6'8" really is too low. If you really think this guy is weak 6'8" you really have little idea of height.

Nairn's posture isn't great. Clearly he aint as low as 6'8" or under. He has an easy foot on Rob, I see about 13 inches in the photo, and remember that Rob isn't a flat 5 ft 8 either. You could argue 6'9" or 6'9.5" but he definitely looks too big to "only" by 6 ft 8. Scott Schwartz is around 6 ft 8 and this guy looks bigger.

I agree Arch, I always take Rob's word even when the subject looks shorter. But not only does this guy not look 6'10, but Robs dropping height in his back. AND Rob said he would be shocked if he was 6ft8. To me, that just isn't something you can slip by. IMHO, 6ft9 would be much better, though I understand it is hard enough to judge height at times, much less when the subject is a foot taller than you! But, if he hadn't claimed 6'10, I doubt Rob would have listed him as such.

My husband is 6'10" and 300-330lbs. This guy looks about 30% bigger/wider/thicker than my husband, if not more. (My husband is normally proportioned, and looks like an average-sized person, from a distance. He doesn't have thick hands/fingers, a big jaw or supraorbital foramen, or anything out of the ordinary. He's not thin...300lbs!!...just not really "thick", like the gentleman in the photo.) So, in terms of weight, my guess would be closer to 400lbs.

Googling him he doesn't look that fat, I'd guess around 350 pounds, although it is possible he has gained weight of late, he does look bigger in this pic than normal. Not sure he'd be heavier than Challenger 15 who in comparison surely as a much higher body mass index.

He looks 6'9" ish in the photo but it's just a photo. People can easily look an inch shorter in a photo, his posture isn't great. If Rob says he looked near the 6'10" you better believe it!!

Huge man! Closing in on Giant territory. He is 6'10" for sure! Looks to be about 350 lbs.
Closing in? Rob did you consider him a giant in person? He looks a giant to me rather than just being a big guy. And yeah, I bet he'd outweigh Challenger 15 a bit. What do you think Rob, would you guess him heavier than Challenger 15? He looks close to 400 pounds to me.

This guy is close to 400lbs. He's 6'10!!! 6'10 300 is very slim and clearly he isnt

300 lbs is hardly "very slim" even at 6'10". That said, you're right in saying this guy is well over 300.

He us way past giant territory 6'6 is start and 6'8 is where you have to duck for many things. So this guy in the 6'9 area is solid giant. 7'0+ are the extreme giants.

Shaquille O'Neal is 7'1" and listed at 323 pounds and he doesn't looks SLIM. 350 is possible but 400? Get real people. And I don't think this guy as a 6'10" more like a 6'9". 6'9" and 320 it's heavy.

Nah, he's not close to 400 lbs. I know a guy who is 6'6 and 320 and he is a fair bit larger than this guy in build. If this guy is really only 6'8 or so then he might be 280 or so.

He is huge and has a massive head , but i don't really see a 14 inches difference there. also a friend of mine who is 207 cm and has around 260lbs ( 117-8 kg ) and if i was to compare him with this guy in terms of weight kristian could be very close to 400 pounds if not somewhere below or above

@Rob
Think you should put him at 6'9 til we get evidence to support yes closer to 6'10? I think he's a weak 6'9 but I think you should put 6'9. Hus 6'10.5 claim is in shoes I'd bet.

Maybe he's 6'10 in his footwear? Which would put him at 6'8.5, which is the highest I'd go for him.

So if you meet a guy who claims 6'2 and you think he could be 6' range, you give him 6'2 just because he claims it? Or you do this just because this guy is too much taller than you?

Hmmmm.... He looks 6'8 range judging from this pic but then again, his head looks to be 10-10.5 inches long, and maybe the camera perspective gives the impression too.
He can be anywhere between 6'8 and 6'10

I'm gonna be honest here. I don't believe he is anything over 6,9 mid day. I think 6,8.5 suits him well. Huge guy either way. But he doesn't look 6,10 next to you rob. I know A 6,10 dude and beside a 5,8.5 guy he would dwarf him a couple more inches. I do think 6,9 would be fair though. Peter Mayhew who is 6,10-6,11 these days (proof of his height is his pic beside ross Sambridge. Mayhew has 2-3 inches on Nairn. Did he look 6,10 in person ROb?
Editor Rob
I know I didn't stand as well here, another 5ft 8 guy I know stood better than me and in his photo with kristian he is 1 inch under his chin which would fit more with a 6ft 8 guy with an 11-inch head...my 6ft friend, I saw him get his photo and he looked around Nairn's mouth
6ft 10 in shoes might be his height, because of his extra weight he walks about smaller than 6ft 10 and can look smaller.
