I saw a guy 7feet or taller once out with his girlfriend in public. She looked embarrassed
Why would she be embarrassed? She wouldn’t be his girlfriend in the first place if she were embarrassed of his height.

Rob how tall is Kate Hudson in those heels? Also the lady that they are hugging is Gwyneth Paltrow

Editor Rob
I'm thinking at least 4.5 inch of actual height, maybe almost 4.75 as the platform is decent and heel angle reasonably high too.
Andrea said on 5/Apr/23
Gerald, 184 is a joke for Salvatore, just like 180 for Marco! Interestingly, they were listed at 180 and 177 in a sort of reality show they did sometime ago... Where they came from I don't know, but that's the kind of range I could see them, AT MOST. Salvatore in particular can actually look under that a lot in photos.

Hey Rob, I think you said on YouTube that old video cassette (VHS) boxes are good objects to use for measurement and on par with stadiometers. When I use a VHS box, I think I get about 0.5cm less than when I use an old computer software/game big box. I'm not sure if the VHS box is fully reaching the very top of my head. Do you think the big box might be overmeasuring? I feel like it *should* be more accurate but I'm not the expert with access to a stadiometer. 🤔
The big box gave 187.8-9cm, the VHS box 187.3-5cm (yeah, it did fluctuate a little between measurements).
I believe I did measure precisely 188cm on the dot at noon, 4-5 hours after being up, the last time I was measured under a stadiometer which was quite a few years ago (so there may be a lapse in the memory, I guess).
Editor Rob
the actual video cassette itself is perfectly fine as it's solid. Its just over 7.25 inches long for a VHS so as long as your nose is pretty close to the wall it will hit the high spot.
oren metser said on 5/Apr/23
Rob, do you agree with the notion that tallness/ shortness both begin around 2 inches above/ under the standard deviation from average?

That might be the limit.

Hey Rob, just to get an accurate and specific final listing on this website. What would've been my measurement on this page(just reminding you our previous conversations that I'm the guy who measured 181.5cm or 5'11.5 at 18:30 , after having wokenup around 8:10). The previous night I went to bed at like 00:30.
Moreover, On to same day I drove to the beach back and forth each time about 20 minutes or half and hour, swam for approximately 40 minutes. Later on I ran for 35 minutes at the gym, drove my car to take my grandparents' home , back and forth for about 40 minutes.
On a different occasion I measured just over 1.82m (182.1-182.2cm 5'11.75 to be precise, about an hour out of bed).
Having done these two measurements and the activities , what would be my final specific listing in your opinion? 5'11 1/2 5'11 2/3 or 5'11 3/4?
Editor Rob
5ft 11.75 would be a realistic listing

Hi Rob. I have in the last while been visiting your site many times per day, so I’d like to request to get a ban for a while. Maybe for a few months, because I am also starting to find the site bored too. So I want to take a break + getting a temporary ban.

Hi Rob, Jenny and all visitors,
I was on my way to the outside toilet when I noticed the two foxes who hang out together at the back. There were some dark grey little tiny animals with them and then I realised that they’ve had cubs! I’m very excited, having never seen foxes this small. I put some food out but Melazier ate it! I’ll have to make them some catfood sandwiches, as cats don’t tend to like bread…..
Have a happy week everyone! 🦊🦊💐🤗👌🏼 XXXXX
Editor Rob
That's great to see cubs. Strangely not seen as many foxes around our garden the last few months!

Rob , how many cms would a ASICS gel lose , I checked my height other day and it increased it by 2 cm, so if I keep wearing them for another year would soles lose more ?
Editor Rob
That's going to vary amongst models. A lot of these sneakers can have hollow sections and lose a cm after a few years.
The gel pair I have, well I can't find them so haven't worn them much...but knowing the problem with sneakers and age, by the time I find them and wear them, they'll probably only last a few months!

7'0 is freakishly big
I'd say most girls will be turned off by thst unless they themselves are freakishly tall.
I think the tallest person I ever saw was 6'10 area
Definitely no one over 7'0
As Rob says if you go to an airport or bigger city statistically you will see some 6'7-6'9 guys and rarely a 6'11-7'1 guy will pop up.
They say there are only a few thousand 7'0+ people
I think the number must be 3,000-4,000 especially since a lot will have some medical condition.

@Rob
Can you add Jim Nabors and Bob Crane one day?
They are famous sitcom actors
Jim Nabors played Gomer Pyle in Gomer Pyle USMC show which is a spin off from Andy Griffith show. He was also I'm the earlier Andy Griffith episodes before Gomer Pyle.
He is listed as 6'0 and 6'1
I think
Here is a video with Don Knotts and Andy Griffith:
Click Here
You can see Nabors is almost an inch taller than weak 6'0 Andy Griffith (possibly closer to 5'11.5)
And he is 5-5.5 inches taller than Knotts
I think 6'0.5 or 6'0.75 is fair for Nabors.
Bob Crane was in Hogan's heroes
He is listed at 5'10 which seems fair
Sean Forrest said on 1/Apr/23
Hiya Rob, some measured a lot of times standing tall same stance for an hour and lost 9mm all together down to a unusual low, but kept fluctuating up and down 3mm between measurements near the end at night. Would their true height listed on here be 3mm more than the lowest measurement? Thanks again.
Editor Rob
I'd typically say a 1/4 inch over lowest evening is a fair listing.
Also repeated measurements over a short period might cause some fatigue and lose you height quicker. Maybe the strain on the back?

If you want to round to 179 it's not an issue, maybe in feet/inches go with 5ft 10 and a half.

@Sandy. Sorry for my late reply. I agree with you that height in our societies are a variable that is important.
I believe that for men, it would be more important in professional life than for women I read an article that stated the maximum income a man can get in a company would be around a height of 190 cm.
If you are taller you will not earn but of you are shorter than 190 cm , your salary will decrease for every cm by 1%.
I do not think this apply to women and I am not sure how accurate that is. That would mean that a 190 cm man will earn 20% more than a 170 cm a man, obviously qualifications and experiences are equivalent for both participants.

Hey rob are men from ages 18-30 178 cm as their average height? Or is it 5’8?

In the UK it's quite close to that figure (178cm) for that age range.

I got another question.. my cousin measures in the evening 1.88m or 6'2 on the dot at 18:30 . He woke up at about 9 o'clock or so. Is it possible he's 1.90m or 6'3 out of bed? I told him once that if he measures 6'2 in the evening, then he's at least 6'2.5 or 1.89m, or could even legitimately scrape 6'3(1.90m). What's the most legitimate claim in your opinion Rob. Thanks for your feedback!
Editor Rob
Highly likely he is near 190cm range out of bed. Many with those stats would go with the middle value, or near mid-day which would be 189cm.

The vast majority of guys who are 5ft 11.5 would want to round up.
If I were that range if not claiming 5ft 11 and a half I'd go with 'almost' 6ft.

Oren Metser.Resuming to our conversation, I'm assuming I'll stick to my 1.82m claim , since I once even manage to get 182.2cm an hour and a half out of bed. I definitely think if I had to state my height as an imperial measurment I'd say - a weak 6 ft/ nearly a legit 6 footer/ about 6 ft. Thanks for your feedback Rob! Keep standing tall.

What is your shoulder width, Rob? And how does one measure it? From the underlying bony structures / bicromial width?
I’m willing to bet Robs shoulder width is 17.5-6 inches. Guys between 5’6-5’9.5 who have normal shoulders will be in the 17-17.5 range. Guys between 5’10-6’1.5 will have 18-18.5 on average. These are just starting numbers. My dad is 5’9.5 and his shoulder width is 17.5 inches and I’m 6’1.5 and mine is 18.5 so that can help prove these numbers even more. Here’s a couple videos that i used to help measure mine.

@vY - it varies by race.
White American males: 5'7"-6'1"

This is for young males, based on CDC data, with a standard deviation (~3 inches) on either side of the mean as the bounds for normal heights, rounded to the nearest inch
oren metser said on 22/Mar/23

Hey Rob , I gotta ask you what height is the fairest to claim if on a given day I measured 1.815m or 5'11.5 at 18:30, went to bed at around 00:20 and woke up at like 8 or 8:10?That day, I swam at the beach for 30-40 minutes, went for a run for 35 minutes. I'm used to claiming 1.82m or a fraction shorter than 6'0.. In your opinion, what's the fairest claim, according these details- 5'11.5 , 1.82m or just bump my height up to 6 ft? N.B I also once measured in the morning 182.1cm or 5'11.7

You could always say almost/about 6ft if you like.

Hey Rob, for American males, what would you say “normal height” is? I would say 5’4” to 6’2”.
I would say 5’4-6’5 for men in America in my opinion. If I see someone taller than 6’5 in public ill usually look twice at them or point them out to whoever I’m with maybe. And if I see a guy under 5’4 I’ll also look twice maybe because it’s rare to be an adult under 5’4 also

@Rob
Have you ever seen any studies on how countries like Holland and some of the Balkan countries with alleged areas that have a 6'1-6'2 average (e.g dineric alps) will affect health and if any concerns?
If the stories are true that average height in Holland is roughly 6'0 (and some anecdotal mentions of 6'2 average in Dineric alps) there would be a larger population of 6'3-6'6 guys than normal statistical average.
Based on years of research it has been proven cancer is higher along with risk of blot clots, joint/back pain etc
I wonder if Holland and other areas will experience a higher percentage of these issues as time goes by.
It seems the most ideal height for men is 5'10-6'2.
I think 6'3-6'4 gets too big and there is proven issues with being those heights (in general) as cited above.
Editor Rob
I can't remember specifically reading about the health/height topic in those countries.
avi said on 20/Mar/23
@Zach Catselbow
Definitely not 5'4
I would say 5'6-6'3
With a more narrow range of 5'7-6'2
Generally most fall in here.
There are a good amount of 5'5 men but most men will get to at least 5'6-5'7

He measured 6’6 7/8 at the combine and there are pics with he and Peyton Manning when he was his backup. Chances are the over 6’7 was very early morning at ASU and that he’s 6’6 7/8 after being up a couple of few hours. I’d bet 6’6 5/8 at a low is a best case. He isn’t even 2” taller than Peyton but this measurement is probably ok. It does look about 1.5” at least

I was in so much of a shock that I belched seven times in a row trying to lift him!

Hey Big Rob. When I measured myself almost 2 years ago it was 1 Hour after bed and I was 173.5cm I felt really insecure. Whenever I would tell people I’m 5’9 I always felt like a fraud.
I just turned 22 A month ago and decided to finally measure myself and it shows 174cm 9 hours after bed. I can’t say I’m any happier but at least it’s progress.
Is that a notable amount of growth for someone in theirs 20s? I always had bad posture and recently just started correcting it 3 months ago by just sitting properly straight in my chair (no posture exercises or stretching) Did that play a role to my height gain?
Editor Rob
Might have been a final little bit of height and you are now probably looking about 5ft 9 to most folk.

@Editor Rob: how about a page for Brock Osweiler? Measured 6’6 7/8 at the combine and claims 6’7 or a little over 6’7” despite a 6’8 listing previously. He had pictures with Peyton manning being he was once his backup
This is very telling although not 100% accurate because it’s also in the morning.

@John Mark You're probably that mark during lunch hours anyways. So if you want to claim that mark? Go for it.
Zach Catselbow said on 16/Mar/23
Hey Rob, measured myself for the first time in a while. After a long day of school about a bit over 13 hours of awakening I got 167.4 cm, so I’m assuming this is my low. What do you reckon I wake up at, I’ve never really been able to do a proper morning measurement?
Editor Rob
It's unlikely you'll shrink below that. Enough to go with 5ft 6 as a comfortable claim.

Good day, Big Rob. For someone who wakes up at 5'10.5, and goes to bed at 5'9.75, is 5'10 a claimable height?

I just know he consistently claimed to be 178 cm and looks so next to my 177 cm uncle, i also saw his medical file where he was measured 178 cm and 94 kg just bit over 2 years ago at age 48. I believe he could measure close to 5'10 1/8 to 1/4, the latter is strong possibility when he was younger definitely, as he is 50 years old right now. He also grew over an inch after age 18-19,(measured 175 cm in the army at age 18 years and 8 months) which is age i am at right now, do you expect me to eventually grow to 5'11?

I’m sure you might grow a bit taller, but it’s complicated to say how much growth you have left. Try to take the Tanner stage calculator…
dreus23 said on 15/Mar/23
@Discord
I actually thought you looked taller than him there, and he's at best the same height as you. Your eye level seems to be similar but looking at the back of his head it seems you're a bit taller. I don't really know why people think you look downright "shorter" than him if I'm comparing you to the right person
@Vy
I feel like that's such a myth though. I mean, it's definitely backed by science, but I know girls who grew an inch or more after turning 17, and typically science says that girls completely stop growing at 15 or so. I also know a guy who grew from like 5'5-5'5.5 to at the very least 5'6 multiple months after turning 18. You and I seem to be in a similar situation though, I measured around 5'6.5 age 17 and now age 18 I measure around 5'7.5. You'll probably reach 6'2 by the time you're done and I'll probably be 5'8

Of course, but you will be in the minority if you gained anything like 2-3 inches at that stage.
To grow anything after turning 18 is very rare probably like 2% do. I know ur nephew lewis grew after 18 I think but I bet he started puberty later than the average dude maybe

It is not unusual to grow taller past the age of 18, and it's not only 2% of males who grew just a bit past 18.
May I ask if you can prove by any academic evidence that only 2% of males grow at least a bit past 18?
From my own experience then i started puberty at 14, and since i turned 18 i have grown like 3 cm of height, and by the tanner stage calculator i am at stage 4.5, so i still have a bit of growth left + also to fix my posture and anterior pelvic tilt and so on, and current im 19 and 4 months old and i am still growing steadily.

@vY 2% is a bit pessimistic I'd find. I want to say 10-15% maybe. And anything more than half an inch after 18 would probably be rarer I guess. For evening hours, I was 5ft 9 when I turned 18, I was 5ft 9¼" a year later, 3 years later I was 5ft 9⅜", Now I'm about 5ft 9⅝".

No way growth after 18 is that rare. Maybe only 2% grow a SIGNIFICANT amount after 18, but just growth in general? Guys usually grow until 19-20.

My roommate on the other hand, gained at least 8-9 inches of height by the time he turned 17, since he is a late bloomer. So it all depends. Some don't gain anything at all.

Calcium tablets are great, as are other supplements that help with bone density (vitamin D3 + vitamin K2 , magnesium). Bisphosphonates are much stronger and should be a lot more effective for you than simple supplements, but combined they should help quite a bit!

Hi Rob.
Does this stadiometer look accurate?
Click Here
I tested it in my high school, and it got me at only 5’9 1/8 by pressing it on my head, but at home when I press a can on my head, then I manage to measure a few millimeters over 177 cm.
The stadiometer in my high school was exactly the same as the one I showed in the link from screenshots I found. And the rod was made out of plastic, and it also measured me at 5’9 5/8 by standing tall. But I did stand tall before my second attempt.
I wouldn’t consider that piece of stadiometer any accurate.
With the can against the wall I always measure between 177 and 178 at my low, and at my extreme low I can get 176.8-177.0 cm.
Editor Rob
It looks like it should be reasonable, but if you could bring a tape measure and run the tape from the part your heels sit right up to the bar, it will reveal if there's any error.
Sandy Cowell said on 10/Mar/23
@ Rapha - I cannot ever remember NOT being interested in height because people are treated according to their height and size as a whole. I can’t say I’d like to be a height which makes me stand out, but it would seem that I stand out for being short. I live near London in quite an affluent area, and I’d definitely say that it’s a rarity to go out and find more than one person who is shorter than I am. Last time I nipped out, I didn’t see anyone, and even two elderly dog walkers I spoke with were taller.
In many respects, I’ve found it imperative to feel the necessity to ‘make up for’ my lack of height by trying extra hard - at school, for instance. The kids in my (private) school were definitely above average, though one girl was an early developer, and a little shorter, but exactly 40 pounds heavier than my 81 pounds. I weighed this when I took my mock ‘O’ levels, and felt the cold something dreadful. I did six hours of homework a night.
I’ve survived on milk-based products throughout much of my adult life, but it hasn’t helped maintain my calcium levels. I’m going to try the calcium supplements that Jdubbz has recommended. I’d LOVE a couple more centimetres!
Thank you very much indeed for your reply, Rapha! 😆👌🏼
Sandy Cowell said on 10/Mar/23
@ Jdubbz - I have been prescribed some huge calcium tablets, but they aren’t very nice to take. I used to find some nice, soft strawberry ones at one time, but I have lapsed with them too. I’ll try to find them online. I’m going to write down bisphosphinate on my calendar and ask my doctor for them. The thought of actually gaining height sounds brilliant, and 2cm would make a very pleasing difference.
Thank you so much! 😁👍🏼

I was in favour of going for my morning height, and it wasn’t until I discussed height with my ex-Army fella that it dawned on me that it happens to everyone. He reckoned that we should claim the height between our morning and evening heights, which makes sense and sounds fair. However, I still waived the idea and stated my morning one.
I realised that I was losing height back in 2013, when I was finding shorter heights on computer weighers unfailingly. Now my height loss is so noticeable that I can’t reach things from the same cupboards as I could used to.
I could never get into the habit of measuring myself every single day as it would put me on a downer! You can’t cure osteoporosis but keep the damage to a minimum by taking calcium supplements with vitamin D.
@Sandy. I hope that you can keep the damage to a minimum with osteoporosis.
I can understand that you rejected the idea of claiming your evening or midday height. By claiming your morning height, you were not lying.
I have couple of friends i have told about the shrinkage duribg the day. Most of my friends were strangely not aware of it and once I asked them which height someone shall claim , all of them uniformly said the morning height and tallest you can measure.
Somehow it makes sense that they said so, on the other side I can understand why people do not claim it here on the website as you are losing the morning height quite fast once you stand.

@ Rapha - I used to think that only one’s height in the morning was our correct one. I’d go along to the swimming baths to weigh myself and in the morning, I would be 5ft3 and in the afternoon, I was 5ft2.
Now I’m only 5ft in the morning, or 152cm, which I believe is 4ft11 and 7/8ths, but WHAT A MOUTHFUL! I’m not saying that every time I’m asked about my height, which tends to happen when I ask someone else’s height. I’m sticking to 5ft until I find out otherwise. I have a form of osteoporosis, by the way.
Cheers, Rapha! 😁
@Sandy. Thanks for your message. I also thought the same as you, that the morning height is the correct one. After all, why not claiming the tallest you can measure?
Nowadays, i agree with the opinion of Rob, thst any height you can measure barefoot is a height you can claim so it does not have to be your tallest height.
So you dropped an inch of height from morning to evening?
Sorry to hear that you have osteoporosis, i hope it will get better.

Rob,I'm 5'10 3/4 right out of bed and at night I'm a flat 5'10 or a tad over it. Do I claim my lowest height or not. I'm new to this website.
Editor Rob
Some folk would go with low or not bother with a fraction, whilst others might go with the middle ground. In your case for a large chunk of the day you will be strong 5ft 10 range.
Sandy Cowell said on 5/Mar/23
@ Rob - I also saw the video of Jenny with your lovely little child. I’m assuming he’s a boy from his clothes, but he’s so pretty with his curly locks that he could pass for a girl!
Hasn’t he got loads of energy? He’ll be keeping you two fit, that’s for sure! 👶

@ Rapha - I used to think that only one’s height in the morning was our correct one. I’d go along to the swimming baths to weigh myself and in the morning, I would be 5ft3 and in the afternoon, I was 5ft2.
Now I’m only 5ft in the morning, or 152cm, which I believe is 4ft11 and 7/8ths, but WHAT A MOUTHFUL! I’m not saying that every time I’m asked about my height, which tends to happen when I ask someone else’s height. I’m sticking to 5ft until I find out otherwise. I have a form of osteoporosis, by the way.
Cheers, Rapha! 😁

Hi Rob, how accurate are these type of stadiometers

I believe that these stadiometers can make some mistakes
Editor Rob
It claims within 1/4 inch accuracy, but that might presume the person stands correctly. I feel if you lurch forward/back you increase the chance of an error.
dreus23 said on 3/Mar/23
Rob, I have this height mark that's from May 2022, and a few days ago I noticed that it nowadayd reaches just around my hairline (or a bit under it) when I stand tall. I know it's best to just measure myself, but I don't have a tape measure with me right now lol. What kind of height difference would you say that could be? I don't know how tall that mark is, but I'd spontaneously guess it's 169-170 cm
Editor Rob
You could expect 3cm, but yeah grab a tape measure from somebody and check for sure!
Savagetez said on 3/Mar/23
Rob sometimes when I comment it never shows up? Is that a common thing? Sometime I will re comment and it will work?

Hi Rob
Would you agree that someone can claim any height he or she measures barefoot even if it is directly out of bed or late in the evening?
Editor Rob
If you can measure a height barefoot, it's valid. The question becomes should you preface the claim if it's a morning height?
Personally if I were to claim 175cm, which I can measure first thing, I'd say 'first thing'.
5'10-Abdul said on 3/Mar/23
I think he is 180 cm at his low, and 182 right out of bed, so a 5’11 1/8 listing would suit him better than a 5’11 flat listing. That is just my personal opinion, LOL.
vY said on 3/Mar/23
Rob don’t u think it’s pretty easy to tell apart a 5’9 guy from a 5’10 guy? To me a 5’10 guy has totally different proportions to a 5’9 guy what do u think
Editor Rob
In person it's easy enough, but like I've said, sometimes proportions in photos can easily make somebody shorter or taller.

5ft11
Morning: 5ft11 3/4

Evening: 5ft10 3/4
I am rounding off of course, if someone at noon is 5ft11 7/8 consider 6ft, or if someone wakes up 6ft 5/8 consider 6ft 3/4 etc.
And I'm also not saying that you need to have these heights to fit in, probably anyone with the listed measurements of 5ft11 3/4 can consider themselves a weak 6ft.

Rob I saw you downgraded Tommy Fury to 5'11 but How about 5'11.25? I thought he was a little over 5'11 but not over 5'11.5 which I thought was the absolute MAX. I never thought he was under 5'11 though. I say both Tommy Fury and Jake Paul are both 5'11-5'11.5? Do you think both could be slightly over 5'11? I think both could be 5'11. I don't think Paul or Fury is under 5'11 flat.
-
I think he is 180 cm at how low, and 182 right out of bed, so a 5’11 1/8 listing for him would be better than a 5’11 flat listing.
Sam83 said on 1/Mar/23
Hi rob, thank you for looking. I guess the height difference between someone 5’7/5’7.5 in those shoes, or those boots, compared to a barefoot 5’11 would be quite noticeable then, especially if the shoes get the 5’7 to around 6’1!? Thanks
Editor Rob
Well it might be near an inch visibly (assuming 5ft 11er is wearing a standard shoe).
Anthony taylor said on 28/Feb/23
Rob how many hours of sleep did you normally get during your childhood especially during school days and holidays like what was your time schedule and also did your siblings grow past the age of 14 and did you do any physical activities during that time to help increase your height as well as your siblings and how tall was your uncles and cousins?
Editor Rob
I remember my Father's brothers were around my height in their peak years, and my Mother's brothers were taller like 5ft 10.
My sleep was ok I felt.
Savagetez said on 28/Feb/23
Rob do you think a 5'11 and 6'0 people can look similar? I would say sometimes yeah. A 6'0 person could look maybe 5'11.5 and maybe a 5'11 person could 5'11.5. I would say yeah overall at times but an inch is still notice although 5'11 and 6'0 is not a super crazy difference. Do you agree with what I said Rob?
Editor Rob
Yeah, it happens at all heights. Just a slight change in proportions or clothing can effect how tall others perceive us.

@ Rob - Meeting David on Saturday night was an unbeatable experience. He was definitely a kindred spirit and being a fellow Aquarian, he’ll have been a humanitarian. When I lived in the East End, I used to make the vagrants sandwiches and give them a pound for a bottle of cider. They were always very grateful.
I’ll never forget him and those huge blue eyes!

That first pair of heels looks thick enough in the platform and angle to get almost 6 inches in full height. At least 5.5-5.6 at worst.

Not much between them, but a big footwear difference. If he's 180, I can't see her barefoot being much under 170cm.
Sandy Cowell said on 27/Feb/23
Yes, Rob, it was a fantastic encounter a couple of nights ago.
I remember my Mum was rather scared of gypsies, but I am not, and even went out with one when I was 30. He was 14 years my senior. The reason my mother was scared of them was because a gypsy had knocked on the door of her mother’s neighbour, and the neighbour sent her away. The following morning, the perfectly fit lady could no longer walk.
I’m aware from my lifetime’s experience that gypsies are capable of seeing things like auras, not to mention our futures. I met a woman who worked in my local veterinary’s who could see our guardian angels. She said mine was a man. In truth, angels are sexless, and do not possess genitalia. Now I wonder if that applies to demons? Maybe they were sentenced to a eternity of going to the toilet for wanting too much; that would serve them right! 🚽👿
Anyway, the excellent film by Stephen King, entitled ‘Thinner’, is all about a gypsy’s curse.
The guy, David, who I met the other night was totally pure of soul. 😇
Editor Rob
Kind acts from strangers certainly brighten your day.

I’ve been experiencing the same by measuring backwards with a can, and it does irk me that I get under measured by that way. But I trust the facing the wall Method as 100%, and I am indeed 5’10.

It's certainly a lot easier for people to face a wall and hold the can. I feel there's less chance of error that way, or interfering with your posture.

Most players will get measured sometime in the morning. I see Chelsea screwed up his height on their page, saying "HEIGHT:
1.75m (5ft 10in)"
Not seen him beside other players much to really tell which is right, but on the pitch looks average for sure.

Hello all!
I’ve recently returned from an incredible experience while out going to the shop. A guy had followed me to the shop. He’d said he was following my aura. I was at the back of the shop when he called over to me. Then he said he didn’t want to frighten me, but he felt compelled to say hello.
I asked him his name and he said, “To you I’m God!” and I said that I don’t like that sort of thing as I’m religious. Then he said that he is too, and that he’s a gypsy boy. His real name is David, and he has the most amazingly huge blue eyes. I asked him his height and told him I needed to know because I write on Celebheights. He said, “At the moment I feel 5ft10, but I’m 5ft8.”
That was incredibly useful for me to know because he had to bend down to talk to me, and I had been wondering of late how I’d compare to a 5ft8 person now. David joked that I was 4ft nothing and I said I’m 5ft in the morning, so less later on, and I weigh six and three quarter stone, which was my weight earlier this month.
David was a very generous guy and offered me anything in the shop! I chose some cigs, some catfood and an ice cream. He’d already given me his last five fags, bless him. He carried my bags until we reached the pub and even offered to pay for a cab, but I didn’t need one as I don’t live far from the pub.
Meeting him was a very special experience, and reminded me that we must never give up on the human race. With his big blue eyes, he was my David Cronenberg for the night, and I told him so. He’s an Aquarian, like me, and I hope to see him again. No, he wasn’t God, but he was an angel to me!

Editor Rob
Well I can split the week into two.
On days we aren't looking after the toddler in our home, I would:
Be up 6am, do some comments and page edits before breakfast.
Away to shops 8-9.30. I do our own shopping, plus parents'
10am maybe a bath, then another hour before lunch.
After lunch I have 2 hours to do some more computer work and fit in any chores around the house.
Between 3-6pm I go to my Parent's and help them out. Cooking them dinner, chores and an hour of that is fully cleaning, applying ointments/bandages to Father.
Then I come home for my dinner and watch a few shows.
I have my own Content/Editing system to manage the site.

Bare feet78 said on 24/Feb/23
Hi Rob, hi folks,
When I was mustered for the army at the age of 18 in 1996 I stood 174,0 cm a couple of hours out of bed.
This was a long time ago. Much havier and "apperantely" older now, I usually wake up at a bit over 175 (almost 5 9). I do shrink quite a lot within the first hour: 1cm.
After 3 hours I stand 5 8 3/8, so almost 174 cm, and this is the height I usually claim.
After 6 hours (eg. lunchtime) I stand almost 5 8 1/4, and my regular low after 12 hours is a tad above 5 8 (very rarely a tiny bit below that mark).
I know, an honest claim would be more 173 than 174 but I guess this is a height misdemenour (;) and Rob lets me get away with it?
By the way: is 172cm 5 7 or 5 8? The US Army for instance does round up (over 5 7 1/2).
Regards
Editor Rob
172 is closer to 5ft 8 than 7. Your stats are quite similar to my own!
Jdubbz said on 24/Feb/23
Hi Rob, when looking at how head size and facial proportions (mainly eye level and chin to eye length) scale with height, is it fair to say that chin to eye length grows more/faster than eye level? Especially for men? Most of the super tall guys I see (6'7+) have a noticeably longer eye to chin than eye level, but I'm not sure if that's just due to gigantism or if it's a common thing.
Editor Rob
From observations, that is a trait I've seen often in very tall men.

If somebody claims a specific fraction, it is given consideration especially if the person can seem near the mark.
Sometimes though an actor uses the fraction as a decoy, like me claiming 5ft 9 and 5/8ths. It would be obvious I'm not that tall, but some would think I'm being so precice I must be honest!

Hello Rob !
I’ve done an experiment and checked my height all day. If i was on your website? What will be my listing ?
Morning : 187.5-6 - 6ft1 6/8 or 7/8
5 hours : 185.8-7 - 6ft1 1/8
9 hours : 6ft1
10 hours : 185.2-3
Absolute low : 185
Absolute low and running 2 hours : 184.8
What do you think ?
Thank you very much !

Really could depend how you appeared in person. I doubt I'd guess you sub 6ft 1 based on those stats, whether you get 6ft 1.25 I'm not so sure.
John tom said on 23/Feb/23
I ran one hour to my doctors appointment and was measured 179cm( woke up and ran to the appointment)

An activity like jogging will put stress on the joints, so it likely shrank you faster than if you were to simply walk for an hour or two.

181cm transitioning into the tall range whereas 169 cm transitions into the short range.
182cm pretty much 6ft is the start of tall range : 182cm-185cm standard tall range.
186-190 solid tall range.

Would 190-195 be very tall, and 195-200 be gigantic in the UK?

I am 179.5-179.8 in morning and go down to 178-177.8 in evening, can I still claim 179 cm rob?

Rob how tall does Rihanna look compared to Britney ?

Editor Rob
Seems a solid 3 inch difference there, both girls in relatively similar high heels. Although I'd say Rihanna might be dropping a fraction in posture compared to Britney.

I’m very surprised over that the ‘Boxer’ Carl looks so similar to you. How was your reaction back in 2011 when you meet him? Did you got shocked over that someone can look so similar to you?
And is he the big Rob at nearly 6’ft tall? 😁😁
Editor Rob
Yeah he could look like a relation! Remember I joked about it in this short
Youtube Clip.

Rob.
I got sick yesterday evening by getting nausea and by throwing up many times during this night, even though I managed to keep sleeping and sleeping until I reached 8-9 hours of sleep or so. And I’ve just felt sick, and I can’t even eat, I can only drink water, tea and juice.
But it’s so hard to eat, I don’t have the lust for it.
Mr, have you felt the same way before?
Editor Rob
Sounds like some sort of bug or food poisoning.
Whenever I get ill, I rest a lot in bed and take multivitamin for a few days and plenty of water. I tend to find I recover quicker.
5'7 and a fraction said on 18/Feb/23
@Rob Am I right in thinking next year it will have been 20 years since celebheights was created?
Editor Rob
It will be 1st October 2024 when it reaches that milestone.

Rob tricky question but I used to know this guy who mostly claims 6ft5 but he did say once he was “6ft4 1/2”.
What could that indicate his height maybe? I am guessing 6ft4 or maybe 6’3
Editor Rob
Specific claims like that could be an indication of a real measurement, however there are some people who use the fraction as a form of sleight, making their claim seemingly believable.
georgett said on 18/Feb/23
Rob how tall is Chiara with those shoes?
Click Here=
Editor Rob
Would expect she measured 6ft 1 range in them. If you took the camera down to ground level, I believe the heels would appear thicker than they look when the camera is over 5ft.
Vick said on 17/Feb/23
Hello Rob,
Would a 5’7.25 eye be considered low for a solid 6’0?
Editor Rob
5ft 7 would be low range for that height.
vY said on 17/Feb/23
Rob in this video the guy at 1:13 claims 5’10 and honestly looks it with girl he’s with who claims 5’8. He told the girl his shoe size is 7 they are in the UK so that would be 7.5 U.S. Isn’t that a shock? That’s the smallest feet size I’ve ever heard of for a guy of that height.

Editor Rob
Would be near 8US, which is small at 5ft 10.

@georgett yeah that's pretty tall I think that's anywhere 6'2-6'3 in shoes, 6'1 range barefoot maybe.
-
Yeah I’m around that in shoes with my ultimate lowest being 185cm so during the day my eye level is hovering just below 5ft9.75 mark in 1 inch footwear so I would say quite tall here in the u.k
Progking185 said on 15/Feb/23
@georgett yeah that's pretty tall I think that's anywhere 6'2-6'3 in shoes, 6'1 range barefoot maybe.
Savagetez said on 14/Feb/23
I already said I am 6'0.25 but I round down and just claim 6'0. Do you think I can get a away with a 6'1 claim?
Editor Rob
A 6ft claim would probably get a few people being surprised, and I bet many guess you 6ft 1.
I'd claim whatever you feel comfortable with as long as you can actually measure it barefoot.
georgett said on 14/Feb/23
Rob with an eye level (with shoes) at around 5ft 9.5-10 range does the person appear tall?
Editor Rob
Yes that person will be viewed as tall by most folk.
Abdulrahman said on 14/Feb/23
Hello Rob.
How are you doing?
My mother turned 57 years old for 3 days ago, and at her age is it common for her that she have lost 1.0 to 1.7 cm of height?
And what’s the exact height loss at the later 50s for a woman If she doesn’t have any health issues ?
Editor Rob
If you reached that age with less than 1cm loss, you've done well. Near 2cm would be a common amount lost by then.
Savagetez said on 13/Feb/23
Rob when you list somebody at 6'0 and another person at 6'0.25 how do you decide because in photos between those people if they have equal footwear and equal posture and hair length is equal than imo it's very hard to tell an quarter inch. I am 6'0.25 and have a friend who is 6'0 and a person tires to tell who was taller but couldn't tell.
Editor Rob
Sometimes I might think a person can look 6ft or 6ft 1/2 inch, and end up going with the 6ft 1/4 listing.
It's a bit like odds, if I think the chance is greater of over 6ft than 6ft flat I could go with that fraction.
Abdulrahman said on 13/Feb/23
@Rob
If you have over 1.000 votes of how tall you are, does the average number as ‘173.6 cm’ cover your afternoon measurement?
Editor Rob
More like 11-12 range.
vY said on 12/Feb/23
Hi Rob My Dad is 5’9.5 and his shoulder width is 17.5 inches and I’m 6’1.5 and mine is 18.5 inches. So exactly 1 inch longer. His Head size is 9.25 inches and mine is 9.6 inches. So do you think you can say that for every inch of shoulder width somebody’s head should be around that much bigger?
Editor Rob
I'd expect there is some correlation between it, but how strong it is I'm not sure.
Maahin Chowdhury said on 12/Feb/23
@Rob
What is your extreme low? Do you go down to a flat 5’8?
Editor Rob
It could be an extreme low, going beyond normal low...like dehydration and long working day.

Savagetez said on 12/Feb/23
Rob am I allowed to recommend any people that I would love you to add to Celebheights?
Editor Rob
People mention names on different pages. If I can find time to look at them I will. Sometimes I don't know much about a celebrity to begin with.
Savagetez said on 12/Feb/23
Do you consider 5'11 3/8 a weak 5'11.5 and 5'11 5/8 a solid 5'11.5?
Editor Rob
Usually I'm thinking more in terms of the whole inches like 5ft 11 or 6ft, but at half inch ranges you could class those figures as being weak/strong 11.5.
Gian 181cm said on 12/Feb/23
@zda
I agree, that's what I said on the other page, the only disagreement is that my solid height range is 184-190cm, as 184cm is the 90th percentile.
181cm is the 80th percentile, so I agree it's a transition zone.
Sam83 said on 12/Feb/23
Hi rob, thanks, sorry, the second pair was this style I think:
Click Here
Would the height difference in pairs such as this and before be noticeable if 5’11 was barefoot and 5’7 in the shoes, be noticeable? Thanks
Editor Rob
Because of that thick platform, the heel should be giving around 5 inches.
Abdulrahman said on 11/Feb/23
Hi Rob.
I went out from 1 pm until 5:30 pm, and from 5:30 pm until 8:15 pm I was home for relaxing, and from 8:20 pm until 4:30 am I was out in bars, clubs and in restaurants as well. And after such a intense day where I’ve walked 27 km and have taken 34.000 steps. Then in the end I can confirm that I measured a smidge under 177 cm at my extreme low after a very long day. I measured bang on 176.8 cm.
Editor Rob
Seems you are still holding around 177cm range at normal low then.
Bani said on 11/Feb/23
Hi rob if I am 167.1 in the morning first thing sometimes higher if I sleep good 167.4 and at night 165.7 cm and in a very actif rough day at my low 165.3 , what is my real height then, and what height is a very short guy you would consider?
Editor Rob
You're a solid 5ft 5 guy. If you went with 166cm as a claim, that would be perfectly fine.

Hi Rob. I have a funny question.
When you were around 18-30 years old, did you went out and used your spare time to get into bars and night clubs?
Editor Rob
If the pub had a pool table, I'd enjoy that more than the drinking. I rarely drank anyway, and haven't touched alcohol for years now. Also managed to bin the Soda completely last year, something I wish I'd done in 20's.
I remember going more to youth nightclub about 16-18 rather than in 20's.
James.B 172cm said on 11/Feb/23
Rob is a solid 1 inch (3cm) a bigger difference between 2 people than many would imagine?
Editor Rob
I think it can depend on head sizes.
If you have a smaller headed person who is an inch taller than a large-skulled person, the difference will seem greater than if it were 2 large-skulled people standing together.
Henrik said on 11/Feb/23
Hey Rob, I noticed that I seem to get a somewhat higher measurement when I'm placing myself more tightly against the door/wall, so that my feet and nose touch it, basically. This gets me an extra 0.5-1cm, so that I am on the dot 6ft 3 in the morning and 6ft 2 flat before bed (the loss is a whole inch throughout the day). Otherwise, I usually get 187-187.5cm by the evening and 189.5-190cm in the morning.
I'm using an 8" long box and a tape measure.
Editor Rob
8 inch box should still touch highpoint if within 1 inch of the wall, but maybe the floor isn't as level as it looks.
Jackie Lee said on 11/Feb/23
Rob do you recommend the stadiometer this guy in the video uses or seca 213?

Editor Rob
That looks like a diy project. I suppose if you are accurate in construction, it should do a job, but a lot easier with something like a $100 seca.
Savagetez said on 10/Feb/23
Rob I've said in my past comments that I am 6'0.75 in the morning and 6'0 flat at night. If you had to list me at a eighth listing what would you listed me at?
Editor Rob
I think I'd probably stick with the 6ft 0.25
