Happy New Year to you and your family, Big Rob.
Please, I measure 179cm in the morning out of bed. And my lowest ever after a stressful day under the sun for 10hrs+ is 177cm before bed.
What cm do you think I can claim, Rob? Thanks.
Editor Rob
Many guys with those stats will claim 5ft 10, a kind of middle value between the high and low.
Gian 181cm said on 14/Jan/23
Rob, would you say that in this image CR7 gives a strong 6'2 impression?

Editor Rob
Can look about 6ft 1.5 there...
Youcef dk said on 14/Jan/23
and how many hours does it take to reach its lowest height?
Editor Rob
It depends on activity levels, but some people can be at low by teatime after a day of work, then when relaxing at night on the sofa actually regain a couple of mm.
I've been up at 5-6am some days and doing hard work found I was near my low after lunch!
Sandy Cowell said on 14/Jan/23
Please, Rob, can Harriet Bibby, who plays Coronation Street’s Summer Spellman, have a page on Celebheights? She’s playing SUCH a big part in it now!
5ft1, as you’ve mentioned before, seems good for her.
Thank you!

@Jdubbz- my autocorrect screwed up my question, I meant to say if the 6’ guy head goes up to a taller guys chin and mouth area what would be the difference, there is an old friend I’m trying to guess his height and that was the way the mirror reflected when we spoke
Gotcha. That would still be way more than a 5” difference. Bottom of chin means he’s around 6’10, mouth means around 6’8. Somewhere in between would mean he’s 6’9. That’s assuming you mean your scalp reaches those areas, if you mean your hair reaches his chin or mouth, then add however much height your hair adds to those estimates.
For reference, I’m a tiny bit over 6’6, and a 6 foot guy is near the bottom of my nose (maybe a half inch above). Your friend sounds like he is clearly taller than me.

Looks 3 inches taller, plus at least 1-1.5 inch of posture difference. Footwear looks reasonably close.

hey rob paul i hope you are well i have a question is our lowest height reached after standing for 11 hrs?
Editor Rob
You're going to be very close to a low. Not an absolute low though.
I think my lowest height is 6’1 3/8ths. I usually only get there if I Lifted weights
Jawilder said on 12/Jan/23
@Rob Chestbrah just claimed 5’10.5 again on a podcast lol.
Gian 181cm said on 12/Jan/23
@Rapha
it's an ok claim, i asked to check if my 181-82cm claims were ok, sometimes i say "about 182cm" too.
But overall I claim 181cm, in the imperial system I would go with "a little over 5'11" or "about 5'11.5".
@Peter 180cm
I agree, that's why I claim 5'11 1/4, but I also think 5'11 1/2 is a possible claim and also the maximum I would claim. Your claim is fine, honestly I would go for 180cm, about 181cm is also valid as you wake up at 5'11 1/2 and you should be 5'11 1/8 by the end of the morning, right?
Pete Tavish said on 12/Jan/23
Rob, have you lost any height? I saw the video about Jenny shrinking and I was just wondering if you have noticed any change in your "normal" afternoon low (compared to when you were in your early 20's), even if it's just a few mm.
Editor Rob
No, there's no change in height.
I have been doing a very basic routine for a few weeks with Jenny to at least stabilise her height and thankfully she is following it. Whether she can regain a small fraction I don't know. Her upper curvature is quite obvious really.

With looser posture still looks like he could be within 6ft 1-2 range. Of course his heels are bigger by a noticeable amount.

Rob, a height of 5'11 7/8 (182.6cm) and has an evening low (like 10:00pm) of 5'11 1/8 (180.6cm), do you think 5'11 1/2 (181.6 cm) is a bad claim ?
I think 5'11 1/4 is very solid, but if a celebrity with those measurements would you say you're being honest?
Editor Rob
It's not a bad claim as it's probably very close to what the person might get at a pre mid-day clinic appointment.
@Gian I would go with 182 cm claim as 181.6 cm can be rounded up to 82.
Peter 180cm said on 11/Jan/23
@Gian 181cm You should consider claiming a height 1/4 of an inch over your lowest,maybe roughly 1cm. In your case,5'11.5 is not a bad claim at all. I'm 5'11.5 out of bed and my lowest is just over 5'10.5 but usually around 5'10 3/4 which i round up to 180cm. In imperial I'd say 5'11 or "almost 5'11" which covers it 100%.
Sandy Cowell said on 11/Jan/23
WHY is it then when the firemen came out, when they tread on something, it breaks? It doesn’t happen when I land on something!

Hi Rob if someone was to loose two stone in weight, would they see a variance in height? Regards
Editor Rob
If the weight loss was combined with an exercise routine which improved posture, there is a chance.
I reckon the greater the weight, the more chance height could be effected, but in the 2-3 stone range maybe not so much.
Canson said on 9/Jan/23
@Jawilder: thanks a million!
Maahin Chowdhury said on 9/Jan/23
@Vick
A 5 inch height difference is where the top of the shorter person’s head almost or does reach the eyes of the taller person. Some people have short or long eyelevels.
Jdubbz said on 9/Jan/23
@Vick
Are you seriously asking whether a 6'0 guy would come up to a 6'5 guy's shoulders? Please take a second to think about this. How big do you think 5 inches is? To answer your question, no, he wouldn't be 5" taller. He would likely be over 7'0 and close to 7'2, assuming you mean you come up to the very bottom of his shoulders.
Sandy Cowell said on 9/Jan/23
Indeed they would, Rob. They’d home in on BOTH of them! 😹👌🏼

@Rob
If I was a celebrity, what height would you claim me as?
I’m a couple of mm under 182 cm right out of bed in the morning and in the evening I usually fall to a flat 180 cm.
Editor Rob
You might look a strong 5ft 11 in person. Whether you got 5ft 11 or 11.25 would depend on how tall you looked with others or in person.
Vick said on 8/Jan/23
Hey Rob,
If the top of your head reaches a guys shoulder and you are 6’0 would the guy be 5 inches taller?
Editor Rob
From shoulder to top of head can be a foot difference!

@ Canson - I never thought you had left, being an avid reader of the Latest Comments page.
41 is a great age - I was super-fit, but very skinny. Often, I’d clock up in excess of over 10 miles walking a day, so putting on any weight would have been well nigh impossible.
Anyway, Canson, have a superb year! You’re a long way from suffering from height loss as well…. 😁👌🏼

Editor Rob
If I was that height at mid-day I might go with it.
Abdullah Amer said on 4/Jan/23
Idk what happened but I checked my height today and my low was 5'9 3/8s and my high was 5'10.1 when it is usually 5'10.3 and my low is 5'9.6. I got 10 hours of sleep too so Idk what happened
Editor Rob
Sometimes I found slight variation in morning height and for me it came down to basically Jenny hogging the bed and hydration levels.

Hey rob just giving some height perspective if my highest of head is someone middle of his head or little upper and my pupil of eye around of his philtrum area so what will be difference between us is it 2 inches?

Could be about 2.5 inches difference.

Rapha said on 3/Jan/23
Hi Rob
Do you think that busting a gut when measuring your height is a valid measurement? And when you bust a gust, how many mm can you measure more than when you stand normal ?
Editor Rob
For some they may find an extra cm or so could be possible, but others will find not much. They stand tall and then try to force it and barely get 2-3mm more.
Maahin Chowdhury said on 3/Jan/23
@(Billythetreesurgeon)
My eye level is also 5’6 but I’m 180 cm. You have a low eye level for your height.
Abdulrahman said on 3/Jan/23
@Rob
I didn’t managed to sleep perfect today, I slept for only ‘7 hours’ and my sleeping positions weren’t the best. Through the 7 hours I woke up a few times, and I was laying on my back, stomach, at the sides. My bad sleep occurred me to not measuring at my full morning height, but I measured 178.4 cm. Normally I don’t measure my morning height very often, but I think it should be a few mm taller, since my low is 177.0 cm, and sometimes after long days of long walks my low height can get done to 176.5 to 177.0 cm. But I claim 5’9 3/4 now.
Sandy Cowell said on 3/Jan/23
I was at the time of being measured, Rob! Thanks! 👍🏼
Sandy Cowell said on 3/Jan/23
Yikes! Hey Rob, it’s just occurred to me that I measured in the hospital 152cm in the morning, after lying in bed. I even managed 70 minutes of sleep!
Initially, I was quite pleased that I hadn’t lost any more height, but now I’m wondering if I’d measure less later in the day.
What, please, are your thoughts? Thanks Rob!
Editor Rob
It is likely you might drop to 151cm. Whether your health currently inhibits the ability to stand at your tallest is something only you can tell.

Usually will look at 8.5UK (9.5US). If the style is slightly narrow, I might end up with 10US.
Interesting sounds like that’s the average range for ur height. When I was 5’10.5 at 14 my shoe size Was 10. Then when I grew a couple inches taller it was 10.5
Progking184 said on 2/Jan/23

@Billythetreesurgeon thats a pretty low eye level. Mine seems to be about 5.25 inches which is below average but not that rare, though 5.75 eye level im not sure about. Maybe yours is really more like 5'6.5?

Thanks Rob. I found out why I was feeling so dizzy and faint all the time. My blood pressure is 199/107, so I’ve been told to take it easy. That’s higher than my Mum’s 160 over something-or-other, and she was warned to wind down and avoid stress or she could have a stroke. I was also told that I could have a stroke. Fortunately, my Mum lived to 85. They gave her tablets for her high blood pressure, but I have yet to have them prescribed.
I came home to a dead cat and a drunken brother.

Hi Rob, Jenny and all you lovely Visitors to Celebheights!
I came out of hospital yesterday, having been admitted on the 28th, my doctor having told me that there was far too much wrong with me for her to prescribe my medication over the phone.
I had nearly 12 hours to wait before I was seen properly, and had many tests, including the inevitable blood tests, X-rays and a CT scan. During the 12 hour wait, a 37-year-old girl noted my Hello Kitty coat and cat slippers and said, “I’m gonna stick with you!”
Named Safia, she was quite simply THE funniest person I’ve ever met in my whole life. She was very loud 🤣 and I doubted that I’d be able to hack it, but hack it I did, and I can’t remember when I laughed so much, let alone in a public place. Firstly, we went out for a smoke, and she was using one of those inhalers, which smelled strange, while I had a normal cigarette. A couple of Police officers came over to us - we were laughing hysterically! - and asked us what we were smoking, whereafter we established that it was nothing illegal.
Then I showed Safia some comedy clips on my phone and there was an outpouring of laughter. Then we went out for another smoke and Safia decided that she urgently needed some crisps. We asked for directions for a food machine, and found it after not much ado. The two officers we had met earlier along with two others, were sitting in the same room as the vending machine and as Safia only had a £20 note, and I’d left my purse at home, she asked the Police (2 lady officers and 2 gentlemen), if they had change for a £20 note, but they didn’t and neither did the receptionist.
So very quick on the update, Safia was coming out with comedy quotes from the sketches I’d shown her. Of course, I joined in, and the Police were laughing their heads off. My new friend looked thoroughly at the machine and touched it, saying, “There has to be a way into this machine, but the Police are here!” The laughter increased many decibels; It was so cheeky, and by that time, I had tears rolling down my face.
Anyway, we went back to A and E, and after some more fun, and looking at pictures of my cats, Safia went out for another smoke break. I was too tired, so
decided to try and get some kip. The chairs were so hard and uncomfortable that I couldn’t relax but I tried to make a pillow out of the flimsy blue hospital blankets. While relaxing, a hand started stroking me. It was Safia, who said, “I’m BACK!”
She added that I was her cat and she was stroking me. I looked up. “That’s nice….!” I added, giving her a hug.
Shortly afterwards, my name was called out. I had a bit of a wait, and Safia strolled off and helped herself to some biscuits and two cups of coffee. I couldn’t refuse the coffee, even though I loathe the stuff, as it was so thoughtful of my friend. It was the third cup I’d had in my entire life and what a huge one it was too!
I was told that I was to be admitted to the Frailty ward, and Safia asked if she could sit with me! Imagine the fracas there’d have been? 😂😂😂 When we hugged and said goodbye, Safia said she loved me, and I said that I loved her too. She gave me her number and we will keep in touch. Meeting her made my Christmas Season a memorable one.
She is one girl I will never, ever forget…. 😁🎄🐘
Editor Rob
Hope you feel better soon and a Happy New Year to yourself and all visitors.
Peter 180cm said on 31/Dec/22
@Editor Rob 1.70m seems to reach just under my eyebrows. Does that make me look my height or slightly taller? Also,mirrors are rather bad at guessing height accurately,it seems like 6ft is just over the top of my hair.
Editor Rob
I doubt folk are going to be guessing you shorter based on how high 170cm reaches.
Peter 180cm said on 31/Dec/22
@ Jawilder Most guys your height probably claim 6'1-6'2 anyway. I'm 4cm shorter than you and the number of times people have guessed me over 1.80 by a fair bit is not surprising, I've heard 1.85 quite a few times as well as 1.83-so much exaggeration.

@Rob
Hi Rob, I hope you’ve had a great time, and I actually have a good question about a interesting topic.
How do you manage to keep your height with no any loss at closer to 50?
Do you train physically by lifting weights and do some stretching and hanging on a bar or doing some cardio or yoga??
I wonder how you can keep your height if you don’t train.
@Abdulrahman. Rob is in his mid 40s so that is certainly not an old age. I would say that most men start to lose some height after age 60 and not before and some even after that.
-
Well. It’s very subjective to say that most lose height after they turn 60 or something like that. If most doctors provide information that the average male lose a fraction after a decade of their 40th birthday, then it should be more credible to believe in.
Editor Rob
In 50's I think it will be easier to spot any first loss.
I have now managed for the last few days to put a simple posture routine together for Jenny to help her back. I'm doing it with her every day, primarily to ease her back pains. Whether it's possible to regain a small fraction I don't know, but I'll check her height in 3 months.
Yuval said on 31/Dec/22
Rob,I noticed my nose(lower part) level is about 6 inches under my height. Is it a good indicator when assesing height through nose level and 6 inch?
Editor Rob
6-6.5 is quite a typical range. 7 inches if the person has a larger than average head (near 10 inch)
Rapha said on 30/Dec/22
Peter 180cm said on 29/Dec/22
@ Rapha Yes i do. I used to claim 1.79 as it is my lowest height but then I thought maybe i was downplaying myself a little so I'm sticking with 1.80. Sometimes I'll say 1.81 as i can look that height as well.
@Peter. 181 is still a height you can measure barefoot 👍

Hey Rob, I hope you spent a merry Christmas. I just finished watching The Bear, what about a page for Ayo Edebiri? While she can pull off looking 5'7, other times I'm not so convinced she's quite tall, especially after looking at more pics of her... Maybe 5'6-5'7?
P.S. Rhetorical question of course, but did you take a look at the names I've last mentioned? 🙂

Tarif would be claiming 6’11 if he was ur height so bravo for being honest.

I appreciate your kind words about me.
And yeah, Tarif is just dramatizing his fantasy of believing into that he is around 7’0 tall.

Hey Rob a question what's fraction different between a sandal and normal shoes or elevator shoes? Is it one or more than one or less than? For example if i wear sandal and my friend wear elevator shoe and we both equal in pic so is he shorter than me or not? Thanks!!

Sandals vary, but on average I feel less than an inch, whilst for normal shoes, close to an inch is a quite typical average.

I don’t know why so many 6’1.5 guys get guesses at 6’3 so often…
Literally every person I meet guesses me at 6’3 I may as well start claiming it. I think it may be because my proportions are pretty average for my height. I know if I was half an inch taller my shoulder width, head size, wingspan would be different than it is now.

Rob,
I wake up at 181.3 then drop to 180.4 an hour later is this normal shrinkage or more than normal?
Editor Rob
The first couple of hours really is when a good chunk is lost, so if you are shrinking 2-2.5cm, then near 1cm isn't uncommon for say 90 minutes out of bed.

@Rob
Hi Rob, I hope you’ve had a great time, and I actually have a good question about a interesting topic.
How do you manage to keep your height with no any loss at closer to 50?
Do you train physically by lifting weights and do some stretching and hanging on a bar or doing some cardio or yoga??
I wonder how you can keep your height if you don’t train.
@Abdulrahman. Rob is in his mid 40s so that is certainly not an old age. I would say that most men start to lose some height after age 60 and not before and some even after that.
Jawilder said on 29/Dec/22
Lowest I’ve ever been guessed in person is 6 feet. I usually get 6’1 or 6’2
Peter 180cm said on 29/Dec/22
@ Rapha Yes i do. I used to claim 1.79 as it is my lowest height but then I thought maybe i was downplaying myself a little so I'm sticking with 1.80. Sometimes I'll say 1.81 as i can look that height as well.
Abdulrahman said on 29/Dec/22
@Rob
Hi Rob, I am considering of purchasing these sneakers. Do you know how much height they add?

Those will be under an inch, 0.7-0.8.

Abdulrahman said on 28/Dec/22
I am indeed a legit 5’9.5, since I measured just over 5’9.5 after being out for 8 hours. I measured technically right on 176.5 cm, and by standing my maximum tallest I got just under 176.7, so 176.6 cm.
Rapha said on 28/Dec/22
Peter 180cm said on 26/Dec/22
@ jawilder If you're 1.85 that's the highest i would guess you at,but I thought you looked maybe 1.83 there. Most doorframes are somewhere between 1.95-2 metres,hence my guess.
@Peter. You claim 180 cm ? I guess that‘s your average height of morning and even height?
Gian 181cm said on 28/Dec/22
To me, Jawlider looks like a 185 cm guy. I would find it rare for him to be guessed at 180 cm or even 181-182 cm.
Sandy Cowell said on 28/Dec/22

Hi rob, hope you had a good Christmas. I was thinking about buying one of these too pairs for my partner, but unsure if will make her taller (170cm compared to 180). Do you think with either of these would add over 10cm please?

I only do very basic stretches, a couple of minutes.
I try to do physical stuff that has a purpose or benefit rather than lifting weights in a gym.
For instance, in November I was doing a big loft clearance for somebody, which involved 20 full car loads to the dump...

Thanks sandy thats kind of you! Merry Christmas to you.
@peter I’m 184.5 cm at a low. There I was 185 cm (no slides) if I had to guess. I don’t look my height in that picture that’s why I asked. Just curious to what everyone thought of my height there.
Yuval said on 25/Dec/22
Hey Rob, how accurate is it when I meausre my self alone ? I use a book/some other long object to touch my head and mark on the wall where it reaches. My guess is that this action, of puting something above my head, is hindering the measurement as opposed to someone else would do that for me while I still stand still.
I think its only a few mm but I always got taller results when someone else measured me
Editor Rob
If you are feeling like you are standing tall, the spine edge of the book is flush against wall and the middle of your head, then you should get a pretty decent measurement, within a small fraction.

Peter 180cm said on 24/Dec/22
@ Bobby That's fair enough as it is the average value. Odd thing is i look 181 next to measured surfaces,maybe 180 flat even after an active day. Also 183-185cm doesn't "feel" so far away from my own perspective so i actually think im 181-182 sometimes lol. 178-180 is pretty decent i think,i always feel atleast above average. But i would gladly choose to be 190 if i had the benefit to choose.

@vY He probably wants attention, but i suppose it is possible he posseses a certain level of delusion. I can understand 5ft 8½ guys would claim 5ft 10 or even 5ft 11. But 7ft is downright madness. I'm refusing to believe someone can be that delusional.

You can claim and consider any height you measure barefoot,otherwise it's just rounding up/down. In my case, anything between 179 and 181 covers my height. Obviously I'm not considering 181.5 or almost 182 since that's very exaggerated.

@Jdubbz
I think you might mean a 250cm+ guy because that would be about 51cm taller than you and you are about 51cm taller than the girl Also one such person does exist right now (Sultan Kosen) measuring 251cm.
Nope, I meant 260cm+. I'm not going by the raw difference in inches, but rather percent difference. I'm 34.4% taller than a 148cm girl, so a guy who is 1.344x my height would be 267cm. Remember that each additional inch gets less significant the taller you are. That guy would have to be just over 8'9, and I doubt anyone in the world is that tall. That's getting into Robert Wadlow territory.
Rapha said on 22/Dec/22
Jdubbz said on 21/Dec/22
@Rapha:
I’m assuming you’re talking about straight out of bed morning height and not something like 1-2 hours out of bed, which is more reasonable. Sure, you can technically measure yourself at your out of bed height, but for only like 5-10 minutes before you start shrinking. If you claim an out of bed height and other people claim a late morning or afternoon height (when they would get measured at the doctors), you’re surely not going to look as tall as you claim. The “you measure it so it’s technically true” argument doesn’t make any sense to me. You can also measure yourself on your tiptoes, and it’s technically a measurement of your body at its longest. Out of bed height is extremely transient, and it’s unlikely anyone will actually see you at that height. That’s why it’s inflated.
@Jdubzz. Yes , i am talking about out of bed height. I m not entirely agreeing with you, obviously we all know here that we shrink quite fast the first 2 to 3 hours out of bed but still the question persist as if you could claim that height without lying or inflating your height. I would say that you can claim that height. Would i claim it? No , because of the reasons you also mentioned. Would i critize someone who claims out bed height? No either. I agree that most people do not see you at your highest height.
Would you say that someone could claim out of bed height when the person specifies early on the morning?
And another question i have, would say that an average of your out of bed height and your low evening height is an accurate claim ?
When you say that going on tiptoes and that would be the longest you can measure. I do think that you were kidding because obviously you can not measure that height barefoot.

@c-mo 176cm
Yes, you do. You constantly talk about how your height is "decent" and play it up as being "good" even though you live in Germany, where the average German man is 180 cm tall. I know you're not German, so you're below-average height in Germany. Now, I know you're going to ask, "how is saying my height is decent or good the same as saying above average?"
@Bobby: it’s a waste of time and energy talking to C-Mo about this. He has spent his time on this forum trying to rationalize his height being good or bad. No such thing as good or bad height.

@Editor Rob: problem is some people wear orthotics that can add 1/4” more. So you may see a person at 6’0 7/8 in the shoes Vick refers to here and assume he’s 6’1 in the shoe since there about the same and then list them in as 6’0.5” when they’re really 6’0 1/8 yielding a 6’0.25 lunchtime in reality

Isn't that big diffrence? Almost 6 inches.

Hello friend. Are Israelis really 5’9.5 on average, that seems a bit too high, despite that Israelis is a beautiful and diverse country?
I would have thought that the average in Israelis overall is 5’8 for men and 5’3 for women. But I guess it depends.

Editor Rob I don't have the proportions to really pull off looking much taller than I am.
the first time i have seen your videos i thought you were about average, like close to 5'9, 5'8.5- 5'8.75 max. So i wasnt surprised to see you measuring this tall in your videos, i have kinda expected it.
But i was a little bit shocked after i realized that you are just 173cm, when browsing your celebs listings a few years ago i thought "it says 5'8 rob and 5'8 jenny...did he forgot to put the 0.5 inch?"

@Gian 181cm:
Ahhh, short girls. They tend to be the worst guessers of height. I’ve had one (who was around 148cm/4’10) guess me at 188cm and 206cm the same day. Literally 18cm apart. In her defense, it would be extremely difficult for me to accurately guess the height of a 260cm+ guy, if one even exists right now. The only people who guess my height accurately within a few cm are guys your height or taller. Especially other 190cm+ guys, which makes sense.

Peter 180cm said on 19/Dec/22
@ Rapha Because it is. You always lose it no matter what and it's not an accurate representation of your actual body length since it's caused by the effects of lying on a surface for alot of hours. You can claim it if you prefer a taller height but that's just it. You will still measure 1-2cm less at the end of the day.
@Peter. I agree that you are at the end of the day shorter and i agree that it is not a representation of what you measure during most of the day but does that mean that it is an exaggeration of your height? In my eyes no because you can measure that height and it is a valid measurement. An exaggeration would be a height that you can never measure barefoot and that is not the case.
Sandy Cowell said on 20/Dec/22
Hi Rob, Jenny and all,
On Saturday just gone, I didn’t just have a burst pipe, but
a burst tank. I woke up to the gushing of water, and I couldn’t even find my phone. I found it in the end beside the toilet so I phoned for help. The fire brigade came and made the place safe.
I have never felt so scared and helpless in my life. I was terrified for my cats above all else.
The chaps were very nice and I had a chat with a dreadlocked guy called Jude. He said the song ‘Hey Jude’ had followed him round all his life and I told him about the history of the song, which was written by Paul McCartney for John’s son Julian.
I had a bit of sleep last night but had a nightmare about Ozak getting hurt on her face. She wants kittens!
My best to you all,
Sandy XXXXX
Editor Rob
Hope the tank didn't cause huge problems, nothing worse after cold snap for a pipe to burst!
Peter 180cm said on 20/Dec/22
@Gian 181cm. I get what you're saying. Every centimetre counts when you're under like 1.90,over that the person doesn't really care that much it seems. I prefer claiming 1.81 sometimes other than 1.80 because it sounds better,it is realistic enough since it's my morning height anyway and besides most people have guessed me around 182-183 so it's still not a bad claim. I also have long arms and a lankier frame the past 2 years so i probably look slightly taller than i measure.
Gian 181cm said on 19/Dec/22
@Peter 180cm
I've already received guesses of 190cm, it was a short girl who said (155cm maybe), it can happen xD.
I usually have good guesses like 180cm or 182cm, sometimes 185cm, more than that is unusual, but it can happen. There are cases that guys increase their height and end up increasing mine. It is very rare for a guess of 181cm, 183cm, 184cm, they usually say numbers ending in 0, 2 or 5.
Height is often the object of concern or accuracy of the claimant himself, for example if I am 181 cm or 182 cm I will not say 180 cm, or if I am 191/192 cm I will not say 190 cm, this 1-2cm difference is important for us, there are cases where the person increases 1-2 cm too (but the concern is to make the height subjectively better).

Can you add Chandra Bahadur Dangi to the website, @Rob? He was the shortest man ever with a height of 54.6 cm (1 ft 9½ in)
adrianposter said on 17/Dec/22
Rob, would the can against the wall method of measurement cause a slight overmeasurement since your arms are upwards causing your body to tilt up a little bit?
Editor Rob
For some people they might find it helps them achieve their maximum posture.
jokey said on 17/Dec/22
@Rob do people sometimes guess you taller than you actually are? Have someone ever guessed you as high as 5'10?
Editor Rob
Recently even my Mother seems annoyed that I'm growing taller...
From her perspective, in the last month she's mentioned on a couple of occasions how tall I'm looking beside her, but it's just the fact she's 5ft 3 these days...and is more aware the difference is bigger and that she's lost height.
I don't have the proportions to really pull off looking much taller than I am, however one crazy estimate was 6ft as I don't think the girl pays much attention to height.
Peter 180cm said on 17/Dec/22
@ Yousef We always lose our exaggerated morning height,no matter what. You'd just shrink less if you're just sitting all day basically relaxing. Maybe as much as 1cm less.
Peter 180cm said on 17/Dec/22
@ jamien jackson You're 178 range at your low so you should claim 179cm and feel confident about it. Don't let others try to tell you must be taller though,always correct them xD.

hey rob paul i have a question do we lose height if we sit down. all day ?
If you’re not completely horizontal, you WILL lose height. It happens the second gravity starts compressing your discs.
Abdulrahman said on 16/Dec/22
Today I’ve been out of the home for 8 hours, I was out in the city centre, and I was at a restaurant with a friend, and I watched a movie with a friend. After the long day I measured my height to be 176.5 cm, but after a shower I measured 176.4 cm.
@Rob would you consider me as a very strong 5’9.5 or just a solid 5’9.5?
Editor Rob
Enough to say strong 5ft 9.5 based on what you've said in the past as well.
Yuval said on 16/Dec/22
Hey Rob, if someone has a small head, how much his height can difffer from guys with medium heads ans same shoulder height? Like 1-2cm?
Editor Rob
If you add in a higher eyelevel than average, you might be talking a visual appearance of 2-3cm taller than reality.

jamien jackson said on 14/Dec/22
Hey rob, first thing in the morning I'm 5'11 and 5'10 1/4 before I go to bed. How tall can I claim?
@Jamien. I would go with 5.10.5 or 179 cm. This height you can maintain for the first 4 to 5 hours in the morning and therefore it is a fair enough claim. Some people would claim the highest they can measure so in your case 180 cm but that is not a height you can measure for long time in the morning but for argument sake, you could claim that height either. What i would not claim is your evening low height.
Sam83 said on 16/Dec/22
Hi rob, thanks for looking at those, that’s interesting to know- I’m sure shoes are getting higher!! I also saw these, which with the platform, I would guess gives over 5 inches?
Click Here
Someone in the 5’6 range like big Iona may get over 5’11 in these?!
Editor Rob
Because of the platform, which looks more than a flat 2 inches actually, I could see that model providing you with just over 5 inches total. I don't think quite as much as 5.5 though.
jokey said on 15/Dec/22
@Rob what height did you claim when you were not really interest in height? Always 5'8?
Editor Rob
Yes, always 5ft 8, though the occasions it came up were not really that often.

@Cooper Clarke:
No problem man, I'm happy to help. I'm glad you were able to get a more accurate measurement. 22cm head length and 11cm eye level sounds way more realistic for your height than 20cm head length and 10cm eye level. 22cm, though still a bit smaller than average, is really normal for a 169cm guy, whereas 20cm would be absolutely tiny. I have seen adults with 20cm or smaller heads before, but the common theme is that they were all women 5 feet tall or under, lol. Your height to head length ratio is actually not too dissimilar from my own. Mine is 9.6-9.7" at 78.25" tall, so definitely on the smaller end for my height.
My father is 5'6 now (5'7 in his prime), and I suspect his head length is very similar to yours. He looks a lot taller than he really is (at least from a distance) because of it.
Sam83 said on 14/Dec/22
Hi rob, thank you for looking. Do you think pairs like this which are 6.5 inches, could maybe give around 14cm extra height?

Editor Rob
You should be able to get a solid 5 inches of actual height from those heels, a bit more if size 7-9 range.
Peter 180cm said on 14/Dec/22
@Rob So basically 182-183cm. Yeah that is a very good height visually speaking,as it is considered a milestone in imperial system using nations such as the UK and the US. I can hit that range in boots or bigger sneakers,i know the feel xD.

Nice to meet you too man! You do slightly lose more height than me but yes our heights are very similar. Bobby said his usual low is 177.5 which is exactly like mine, so he’d classify as a weak or almost 5’10 guy like me, hence why I said we’re height twins. He might be taller in the morning though, who knows.. But for most of the day we’re the same exact height.

Yeah, I pretty much agree . 😀
Peter 180cm said on 13/Dec/22
Hey Rob. If you chose to be a different height for the purposes of this site and for life in general would you choose 180cm? It seems like the sweet spot for most people under that height.

I always say a good visual height for comparison to both men and women is around 6ft.

@Jdubbz 198.8 cm Ok, just measured again with a tape measure instead of a ruler which I previously used. Turns out my head size is actually around 22 cm and my eye level is 11 cm. When I saw that my eyes were around the 11 cm mark I immediately realised that my last measurement I did might've been well off. I placed my chin on the metal bit at the start of the tape measure. 22 cm is probably closer to the truth and more reasonable here, maybe a little bit under it at lowest. So my head size is actually around 8.5-8.75 inches, which is the mark you said it could be if it's under 9 inches. Even I kinda had doubts myself that my head was really as small as 8 inches, and I figured that I might've done the measurement wrong. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.
Youcef dk said on 12/Dec/22
thank you rob paul for answering me, I just have one last question is it possible to lose 3 cm in height for a guy who is 171 cm in the morning because once when I got home from work I measured myself at 167.6 , while every next time i measured 168.7 while walking all day i'm obsessed so is it possible to lose 3.3cm or is it just my posture that wasn't right?
Editor Rob
Yes, not impossible, but more common to lose near 2cm.

Do you also have sometimes where you don’t manage to sleep a lot too? I’ve only had 3 hours of sleep from last night, and I’ve been tired the whole day. Well it’s current a little bit before 7 pm here, but if I end up sleeping alot, then I might have trouble falling to sleep again during the midnight.

I rarely have a problem falling asleep, but I'm doing a fair amount of stuff each day so by evening I am quite tired.
Maybe if there are worries on the mind, that can have some impact on sleep.

James B 172cm said on 12/Dec/22
Rob is it quite typical for 6ft3 guys to inflate there height to 6ft5?

You'll find height inflation at all sorts of height, but would 2 inch inflations be more common in those under 6ft, than those over?
Maybe!

Jdubbz 198.8cm said on 12/Dec/22
@Cooper Clarke:
Yeah if you're confident that you're 5'6.5, an 8.0" head is really rare for a guy. It's even rare for a woman of that height. I would try measuring it again and seeing what you get. Measuring head size can be trickier than it seems. The most important thing is to make sure you're looking straight ahead, as looking even slightly up or down can shorten or elongate your measurement by a decent bit. When I measure my head, my actual length is 9.6 - 9.7", but I can get measurements as low as 9.2" or as high as 10.2" if I tilt my head down or up by a lot.

Hi. You have used DK in the end of your username. Does that mean you are from Denmark like myself?
Abdulrahman said on 12/Dec/22
Hello, Eclipse. It is nice to keep in touch with you.
I would think that our heights compared to each other would be very identical, since we both are 177 cm in the metric system. I would write that my typical low is 176.6 to 176.8 cm, and my extreme low is 176.2 to 176.4, so it is indeed very close to yours. I technically have a morning height of 178.4 to 178.6, but due to anterior pelvic tilt which I unfortunately have, then I tend not to measure my morning height, since i shrink fast in the morning. I personally do think that Bobby have a similar height to ours , but i also think that Bobby is obviously taller, since he measured a little past 179 cm in the morning, but we should keep in mind that his measurement tape might be a little incorrect, so his tape could undermeasure him by a few mm. And from what i know, then i am not sure if Bobby stands his absolute tallest, but i think his potential morning height is 179.3 to 179.5, and his low is likely to be just about 5 '10 on the dot, so i would definitely consider my good friend as a solid 5' 10. I think we are all three fractions away from having the exact heights.
Anyways, it is nice to meet you, we haven't quoted each other before, or i don't remember if we have during the past, but thanks for the quote and post too, Mate.
Cooper Clarke said on 12/Dec/22
@Jdubbz 198.8 cm I'm not sure if my head was measured wrong or if my head really is tiny. I could have done the measurement wrong or maybe misread it. But I know for a fact that I'm the height I got measured at, as I've compared my height to other people a number of times and consistently find that I am a couple inches shorter than most males, but nowhere near as short as 5'1. As for my head size compared to other people in photos, I'm not very good at estimating other people's head sizes myself, so I'm not sure if my head really is much smaller. Might be a little bit, like maybe 8.5 inches but I would never have guessed as small as 8 inches. But when I did the measurement with a cm ruler, it looked like the top of my head was around the 20 cm mark at most.

That will be a typical low, but an absolute low after say 12 hours of being up and activity during the evening, could be 2-3mm less than that.
Harambe Lives On said on 11/Dec/22
Current Rob is always 173.5-173.6 in his vids, so I'd say 5'8.25-5'8.375 is a fair listing. Tbh Rob, I'd get rid of 1/8 inch listings (round up if they're close to the nearest inch and down otherwise). You're, at worst, 5'8.25 so go with that. There was a time when you were 5'8.5 too

Birds flying around my room would definitely be more nightmare territory.

@Vick 6'0 is maybe a bit below at night, like 1/8 or 1/4 inch, but otherwise 6'0+ throughout the day. A solid/strong 6'0 doesnt drop below 6'0, maybe on certain days though at a extreme low
James (178.3cm) Jones said on 10/Dec/22
what height do you usually claim rob? morning, afternoon, or evening?
Editor Rob
I go with metric these days, 173cm, just over 5ft 8, which is nearer my low than my morning (which is very close to 175 on average).
eclipse said on 10/Dec/22
@Abdul-DK
We have a very similar range from what I’ve seen, I wake up at 178.6 and for most of the day I’m 177.5, my normal evening low is around 177.2/177. My extreme low is around 176.5/176.4, do you claim 177? I claim both 178-177.5, I just say I’m around 5’10 or weak 5’10, it doesn’t matter to me. Me, you and Bobby are height twins lol

Jdubbz 198.8cm said on 10/Dec/22
@James B 172cm:
2 inches? Unless by very tall and overweight you mean nearly 7 feet tall and way over 300lbs, no way. You’d need absolutely horrific posture to lose that much height relative to measured height. Most overweight very tall guys don’t have great posture, but nowhere near bad enough to lose a full 2”.
I’m very tall and technically overweight (according to BMI at least) at 6’6 and change and 240lbs. My posture is pretty decent, and my walking height is within a cm of my measured height.
James B 172cm said on 10/Dec/22
Rob a lot of very tall guys who are overweight walk around 2 inches shorter than they measure because of poor posture.
Would you agree?

Hey Rob! Today I measured myself at 182,1 cms of height. That was about 2 hours after waking up in the morning. These 2 hours I spent mostly on foot. Washing dishes and stuff. So, do you think 182 cms would be a good claim of mine, even though someone could measure me at like 181,3 cms in the evening? Thanks.
Editor Rob
Yeah, I think that sounds reasonable.
Maybe if you went for a 10am appointment you would end up getting measured between 181.5-2 zone and they'd simply give you 182...
In imperial, you are a 5ft 11.5 guy.
Abdul-DK said on 10/Dec/22
Hi Rob. This question might be a little odd to ask, but I will ask anyway.
When you went to university did you felt that the average height amongst students would have been 5’10?
Because I read a lot on Reddit that the average in UK is 5’10 instead of 5’9, so would it mean that only the young generation living in UK averages at 5’10 or about it? And did you felt average in campus at 173.5 cm?
Editor Rob
I didn't pay as much attention to height back in the late 90's, except noticing nobody really changed in height much after 19. Both Universities I attended were within the city centre of Glasgow, so you were always amongst students and people going about their daily business.
Jdubbz 198.8cm said on 9/Dec/22
@Cooper Clarke:
Do you have a noticeably tiny head compared to other guys? either in pictures or just when looking at yourself in the mirror? If not, odds are super low you have an 8" head. Unless you are an extremely short man, that head length is very rare for a guy. It could be under 9" like 8.5 or 8.75", but 8" flat is very improbable.
Abdul-DK said on 9/Dec/22
@Rob
I also had a day where I in total walked 17/18 km, and I got home and measured 5’9.5, or 176.5-176.6 cm. So sometimes my height can vary depending if I walk fast or slow.

Oh ok. I still don't think the average male head size is a full inch longer than the average female head size, but I get what you mean.
It is. My sisters head is exactly 1 inch shorter than mine and she is 5’8 so my height equivalent to female at 6’1.5. So that confirms it even more.
Vick said on 8/Dec/22
Hello Rob,
How many hours in the days would you consider someone a legit 6’0, 5 hours or 7 hours?
Editor Rob
If they barely fall under it by afternoon, I'd say that person was a decent Six Footer.
Cooper Clarke said on 8/Dec/22
@vY yeah, if my head size really is 8 inches max then I've obviously got a small head for my height, because I know for a fact that I'm not 5'1, or anywhere near it. I was measured at the doctor's at bang on 5'6.5 at 12pmish, and I also measured around that height when I did it against the wall, so I highly doubt that the measurement itself was off by much.
James B 172cm said on 8/Dec/22
Rob if your 172.7cm in the early morning what is your true barefoot height?
Editor Rob
I could see many guys with that morning height ending up being measured 171-2 range (for appointments) and rounding to 172.
But remember any height you can measure barefoot without going on tiptoes, one foot etc is a valid measurement. It's just very few people in your life see you at your highest measurement out of bed.
Even Jenny rarely sees me at 175cm, as I rise earlier than her!

@jdubzz im not talking about the head size of a man and a women of the same height, rather height equivalent so 5-5.5 inches. So like for example the average female height is 5’4 and the average male height is 5’9.5 so the the 5’4 girl will have a 8.25 inch head and the guy will have a 9.25 inch head.

Hey Rob, I just measured my head length at 8 inches (20 cm) and my eyelevel at 4 inches (10 cm). (approx) If you were to guess my height just based on that alone (without knowing my real height), how tall would you guess me at?
Editor Rob
If that is a true measurement, I'd expect below average height by several inches.
However, if you were nearer average it would be a benefit in appearing taller, because of proportions.
The average Male head is 9.1 inches long and the average female head is 8.1 inches long so I would guess you are a 5’1 girl
Abdul-DK said on 5/Dec/22
Hi Rob.
Today after school I measured my height at 176.7-176.8 right between those numbers. And I was awake for like nearly 9 hours. And I also had walked 7000 steps roughly 6 kilometers during the time I left home at 7 am , and the measurement took place around 3:15 pm, and I woke up at 6:24 am.
After I was home from 3 to 7 pm then I chose to leave home around 7:15 pm, and I came home at 9:10 pm, and then I measured my height and only measured 176.4 by standing my tallest, I could be roughly 176.5 cm, but I wasn’t noticing it clearly. But then after a few attempts of measuring my height to be sure, then I already shrunk to 176.2-176.3 cm, is it normal to lose a few mm within a few minutes of standing?
And I had walked 6 km , so in total I have walked 12.1 km, and I have moved 15000-15500 steps.
I felt that I was weirded out for losing a few mm so fast.
Editor Rob
You may have been placing your body under more stress when measuring height, not quite being able to stand as tall as you did when getting 176.4cm.

First thing I measure 183,5cm, on my very low 181cm. I`ve never measured below 181,5cm six hours out of bed. Though I am not a strong 5ft11,5-guy, can I categorize myself as a solid one?

I’d claim 182 cm with your stats, and yea you are a solid-tall guy .
Gian 181cm said on 3/Dec/22
@Riedl181
In my opinion you are a classic 5'11.5/182cm guy, 6'0 1/4 upon waking and 5'11 1/4 at the extreme low are measures of guys 5'11 1/2.
The beginning of tall height in UK/USA.

I think he is 166.5-167 cm, a very weak 5’6 and a very strong 5’5. Is that a good range for his height ?
Editor Rob
Weak 5ft 6 might be on the money for him.

I'd have thought near 3 inches with that pose is a good possibility.

Rob, if one gets measured at 10-10:30 AM after being out of bed for 2.5-3 hours, can they claim that height?
Editor Rob
Of course, there's no worry about that.

Hey Rob, I have an unusual long Torso which is probably the reason I loose one good inch over the day.
First thing I measure 183,5cm, on my very low 181cm. I`ve never measured below 181,5cm six hours out of bed. Though I am not a strong 5ft11,5-guy, can I categorize myself as a solid one?

Rob, can you consider and give these people a page?
- Jack Nance: best known for starring in Eraserhead, he also appeared in many other Lynch's movies. 5'5 range looked possible, maybe 5'5.5, but I doubt much more than that.
- Ricardo Darin: probably one of most famous actors from Argentina, he regularly gets listed at 172, although I've read he's claimed 177 himself (whether he really did I don't know)! From what I've seen, I really wouldn't have gone much over 172, although he can actually seem over that with Messi here:

- Noemie Merlant: she gets listed at 176 on this agency
Click Here , although that does look a bit optimistic if you see her with someone like Kit Harington
Click Here or Cate Blanchett
Click Here Maybe 5'8 range is possible, but I certainly doubt over.
- Renate Reinsve: I've already requested her, but I'll try again. As I've said before, I'm not sure I would have guessed her quite as tall as the 178 she gets listed at in The Worst Person in the World, but with Emma Stone and the girl from Squid Game for example she can actually look very tall here
Click Here (arguably more than that in fact)!
Also, it's been a while since you've added Italian names... What about Alessandro Borghi (for me one of the best actors of his generation)? I can tell you he has claimed 186, although he never quite looked that tall to me. In shoes he may well have measured that, but more like 183-4 barefoot IMO.
Editor Rob
I remember I'd saved Nance resume a couple of years ago but forgot to add him. I could believe close to 5ft 6 and shrunk a bit by 90's.

Rob! Did you receive my reply to Bobby? Thanks!
Editor Rob
Unfortunately not.

@Rob Yeah, I'm not even sure myself that I did the measurement correctly. Either I measured it wrong, or my head is really small for my height, because my most recent measurement was 168.9 cm (at 12pm) and I believe the average for that would still be close to 9 inches, maybe a bit under at worst. (Since the average head length for a male is about 9 inches or just over, and I'm a couple inches shorter) Something just doesn't add up here. The eye level is only half an inch off the average here though, so maybe that isn't too far off. If the measurement was correct then guess that's just a 'tall proportion'.
Editor Rob
I'd always check a couple of different walls to eliminate anything like floor/wall discrepancies.

James B 172cm said on 1/Dec/22
Rob I was measured back in 2015 at 171 1/2cm on a gym wall tape measure a few hours out of bed.
Can wall tape measures be inaccurate?
Editor Rob
Odds of errors on wall-mounted tape measures increase compared to traditional stadiometers.
Editor Rob said on 1/Dec/22
Apologies, but any comments submitted over last 24 hours were lost.

Hi rob, my back is hurting a little after many hard days ive noticed im dropping 3mm more than my normal low these days even though i still hit my max morning.Is this normal?
-
That might be sore/tender you’ve received from the back muscles, maybe you’ve trained your back too much with extra pressure.
Cooper Clarke said on 29/Nov/22
Hey Rob, I just measured my head length at 8 inches (20 cm) and my eyelevel at 4 inches (10 cm). (approx) If you were to guess my height just based on that alone (without knowing my real height), how tall would you guess me at?
Editor Rob
If that is a true measurement, I'd expect below average height by several inches.
However, if you were nearer average it would be a benefit in appearing taller, because of proportions.

Hey Rob, I think I’ve gained a small fraction! I got back into fitness four months ago by running 5k at least 4-5 times a week and my morning height used to be 177-177.2cm and now it’s 177.5-177.8cm so a pretty solid 5’9 7/8 to flat 5’10. My low is more 175.7-176cm than 175.3-175.5cm, so I wonder if that’s my last bit of growth?
Editor Rob
Maybe the fitness regime helped your body a tiny amount.
