No less than 6'2 1/4, likely hits the full 6'2 1/2
Definitely gives a taller impression than a lot of 6'2.5 listed guys and even some 6'3.
I feel as though he certainly edges out Routh, Welling, and Kutcher.
Jordan87 said on 21/Jul/22
Has a 5'9.5 Eve level, Looks around 6'2" Actually with Rob, Tall dude regardless. I am finding out lately that the Younger kids nowadays, as in around 17-20 are still over average below 6'0 in America. Alot of 5'11's.
This dude being 6'2" puts him comfortably taller than 8/10 people.
RJT said on 8/Dec/21
@Editor Rob
Do you think this height or 6'3 is the tallest most commonly found height in the West/UK? I meant that if you walk around these height will be the tallest unless 6'4+ guys show up which isn't that common...
Editor Rob
For each inch above 6ft the percentage decreases...I see guys that range, but nowhere near as often as your 6ft to 6ft 2 range.

Editor Rob
He's in a typical dress show I'm in 0.85in sneakers, so pretty much within similar kind of range.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Oct/21
RJT, the more I look at him, there is a possibility he could measure something like 6ft2⅝(189.5cm). He doesn't look below 189cm. He doesn't seem much shorter than Flintoff...
RJT said on 21/Oct/21
Rob's eyebrow is 164cm in his driving height experiment video, and yet Cook's chin level is significantly taller than that.
If his head is 9.5" or 24cm which is typical for 6'2-6'3 range guys, he's not under 189cm, more mid 189cm scraping 190.
He's my height twin.

As per considering all Asians, I think i am average as the average height of that Asian Americans is actually 5'7.5 according to the Internet. I think maybe indian americans are also 5'7-8 but Inguess the ones who are my friends love basketball if that makes any difference.
Rohon Ray said on 9/Sep/21
I think most indian American bguys i meet on average are 5'8-9 range. Havent really looked into it. Back in India, on average my friends are 5'5-5'6 maybe

@ rohon ray, i am not a bengali. I am from bengal and speak bengali as my language. Roy is not my surname.my ancestors are from uttar pradesh.rohit sharma is a text book 5.8. Saw him with kane williamson. Looks about 0.5 inch shorter. Kane is pretty much 5'8.5".i think you will be listed at 5.7 and 7/8 here in celebheights( 6 to 7 hours out of bed) . So rohit will be really slightly taller than you which is impossible to spot. Where are you from?

Hey @Rahul roy, how tall do you think Rohit Sharma is? I am saying 5'7.5-5'8 is very possible for him even though wikiepdia has him at 5'7. Btw I am Bengali too and about 5'8.25 (5'8.5 if i sleep alot ) in the morning and about 5'7.75(5'7.5 after playing a sport) in the night.

My grandfather is also tall at this age, he is in his late 70s and still stands 6 feet tall. Like i also am a swimmer so that helped me be taller. I still have some growth left, but i think now maximum i can hrow is an inch

@ aryan sachdeva,whats your age? I believe in most of parts of india ( except punjab and mumbai) the last tallest regualar height for man is about 6.1 or there about. 6.2 and above are rare and a bit awakward for men in most parts of india.yeah you like your height because you are tallest pretty much everywhere you go. Isnt india's tallest man dharmendra pratap singh lives in up? He is listed at 8.1 but thats too much. About 7.6 to 7.7 is possible for him.
RJT said on 3/Aug/21
Idk why average is so low, Cook looks even taller than Routh/Welling did with Rob and yet their averages are higher.
Aryan Sachdeva said on 2/Aug/21
@Rahul roy oh i didn't knew roy wasn't your real surname sorry. Tbh i have also not seen anyone my height. I am from up but here are many tall guys like they are 6' or 6'1 but i am the tallest everywhere. I remember once meeting a man of the same exact height but at that time i was 6'1 cause i am only 16 and still growing but i don't think i'll grow much now, maximum i think i can go to 6'3.5. Well i don't feel abnormal being taller than everyone i kinda like it. My father is like 5'9 and my mom is 5'3 and i think i have gotten the genes of my gtandfather, he stands 6ft tall in his late 70s. He told me he was 6'1 when he was young. I have a cousin who is 5'7.5 and he comes just above my chin and so do most people. But overall i love my height and i hope i van grow to my max potential.
Rahul roy said on 31/Jul/21
@aryan sachdeva, bro i have never seen a single person of your height in my entire life. I am from west bengal. Btw roy is not my real surname. I also visited big cities like chennai , bangalore and kolkata but never seen someone as tall as you.in west bengal it will be an abnormal height. Where are you from? Which state?

Inches_to_cm said on 6/Jul/21
@Rob, you should consider adding James Anderson. England's most capped Test player of all time, recently took his 1000th first-class wicket....he'll probably be knighted in a few years.
6'1-6'2 is what I'd think, see here:
Click Here
Wiki lists him at 6'2, could be a morning measurement.
Rahul roy said on 7/Jun/21
@ fida khan, are you a girl?
Rahul roy said on 3/Jun/21
@ fida khan, you mean dale steyn at 5'10.25" . That means virat kohli below 5'8" . So probably about 5'7.75".
Fida Khan said on 1/Jun/21
@Rahul roy I did feel that dale could be about a strong 5'10 range
Rahul roy said on 29/May/21
@ rob paul, the other white leaning guy has couple of celebrities. His name is dale steyn. He is a legendary fast bowler in cricket from soith africa. But i swear he is a legit 6 foot. If you google with like this( Dale steyn with adam sandler or shaq or even kevin pietersen , he looks 6 foot with all three of them) . Try it. And i do believe that camera angle wasnt helping him there 100 percent.
Rahul roy said on 27/May/21
@ rob paul, surely steyn is not 5.9 range. He is 6 foot . Rob see the right below pictures of those shorter guy. One is waqar who is currently 5.10. Lost height due to injury and bowling by an inch and steyn is still in his peak at 6 foot.you can see 2 inch difference.dale steyn is also taller than sandler adam by 2.25 inches
Editor Rob
the guy in the middle looks somewhere in 5ft 9 range, the other guy is leaning, he can be taller, but as much as 6ft?
Fida Khan said on 23/May/21

Don't look much different between Christie & Cook, and Cook also wasn't standing straight as he slightly lean forward.
Max 1cm between them not 2cm.
Editor Rob
In person I thought she could seem taller.
RJT said on 13/Apr/21
@Rahul Roy
Cook could be a tad over at 6'2 5/8"(189.5cm), tallest guess for him is 6'2.75"or flat 190cm maybe on a good day.
Rahul roy said on 9/Apr/21
@rob paul , whats the maximum height cook can be in this photo?
Editor Rob
I think this is close to how he seemed in person, sometimes a person can look shorter or taller...I think anywhere up to 6ft 3 you could argue.
Rahul roy said on 29/Mar/21
@ ROB PAUL, is he ( cook) handsome enough for films?
Editor Rob
I'm sure he would be, if he had the talent and interest in going into that field.

@ rjt , cook is definietly this height. But you know never know like if his eyelevel is 5 inches and not 4.75 then he can get 6'2.75" listing. Not every 6'2 6'3 person has same 4.75" eyelevel.
RJT said on 3/Mar/21
The more I look at Cook, he does look legit 6'2.5" even look taller than both Routh/Welling at least from your picture.
@Editor Rob
Is 6'2.5" to 6'3 difference really noticeable in person if we don't look at the two shoot picture?
Editor Rob
to most people I think they would class guys that height range (6ft 2.5 or 3) as looking similar.
Height estimates can fall within a range, sometimes it's narrow or a bit wider.
Seeing people with other attendees, other guests and even the photographer can help you try to guess, as does measuring many people at different heights and trying to build a memory of how various heights look from your own perspective.
Rahul roy said on 29/Jan/21
@ rob paul, who would measure taller between cook and shemaus ? Both listed at 6'2.5" and both have a photo with you.
Editor Rob
In person it is tricky to really say one has better chance of measuring taller. Both seemed at least 6ft 2, but neither looked as tall as 6ft 3...
Sakz said on 20/Jan/21
@Inches_to_cm I'd be surprised if Crawley was much under 6'5, since he looked about 5 inches taller than Root. Could be 6'4.75 if not the full 6'5. Sibley looks around 6'3 and haven't seen too much of Lawrence, though he looked comfortably over 6'0.
Inches_to_cm said on 17/Jan/21
Some relatively new English batsmen....Zak Crawley, Dom Sibley and debutant Dan Lawrence. What would you say guys? All tall lads, Crawley is apparently 6'5, Sibley probably strong 6'2 or weak 6'3 like Cooky (but he's listed at 6'6 on Wiki lol) and Lawrence similar to Sibley?
Rajiv roy said on 4/Jan/21
@ 2pacalypse wow,kl is similar to ashwin in height. Dhoni kohli similar range.both Could be 5'9.5. Anushka is legit 5'8". Sachin is a weak 5.5 guy more like 5'4.75". Do you know how tall is female cricketer ellyse perry ? 5'8 🤔
Rajiv roy said on 4/Jan/21
@ vincent caleb, yes cook is comfortably taller than 6.2 . 6'2.5" or at least 6'2.3/8 " . But more 6'2.5" or 5/8 range. So 6'2.5" is spot on. Cook looks more 6'2.5" than wwe wrestler shemeaus does with rob paul. Both of them listed at 6'2.5".
RJT said on 4/Jan/21
6'2.5" would be his tallest, not his low.
Even according to the height comparison chart his tophead excluding hair is barely above 6'2.
6'2.25" sounds much better.
Vincent Caleb said on 3/Jan/21
Easily 6’2.25” maybe 3/8 candidate.
Rajiv roy said on 3/Jan/21
@ 2pacalypse wow, i think this is final.
Warner- 5'6.5"
Smith- 5' 8.75"
Kohli- 5'9.5"
Although Some photos they all can be .25 or .5 inch higher or lower . How tall is ravi ashwin? 6'0.5" maybe.
Rajiv roy said on 3/Jan/21
@ chilling, here in my state west bengal, people generally claim around 1 inch higher than their actual height. Not as much as american or any western countries people.not sure how much higher height people claim other parts of india.but yeah rahane is not short he is average comfortably. Kohli is 5'9.5".
Busting a Gut height is right or wrong i really cant tell. But looks wrong to me.
Chilling said on 2/Jan/21
2 cm error? Rob's old stadiometer had an error of 2 mm (0.2 cm). 2 cm is too much, unless they're using cheap, untrustworthy equipment which is really bad.
I don't think the measurements would have been too early morning, certainly not right out of bed. And I'm on the fence about
Busting a Gut because a lot of people measure that way and nobody calls it cheating. Okay, if we go by 5'8, Rahane would be within the average range but under the point estimate.
I guess it comes down to the fact that all the Aussies and most Indians are taller than Rahane, looking at the cricket teams. So even if you disregard the studies, I suppose there's a reason.
Another fact could be that Indians are very fond of height inflation (only the US can possibly beat India). I'm sure you experience this a lot Rajiv. Indians may think that Kohli is 5'9 and say oh Rahane is shorter than him, he must be super short (without having met him in person). The guy saying this on the other hand, will be 5'8 claiming 5'10. So you have that sort of mentality as well.
Rajiv roy said on 1/Jan/21
@ 2pacalypse wow, pictures can be deceiving at times. Steve smith is not even 5.9 forget about 5.10. He maybe about 5'8.5" to 5' 8.75" range. But then again his forehead is huge compared to kohli. So who knows he could be 5.9 or hair over. Smiths eyelevel could be 5 inch long compared to kohli's 4.5".
Rajiv roy said on 1/Jan/21
@ inches to cm, i dont believe on those studies. Measurement device like stadiometre can have easily 2 cm error. And also dont know when those measurements were taken , did they breath in for messurement. I think more like 5'8" is average for young upper class private schools of urban areas is possible. Early morning measurement or
Bust a Gut measurement can increase your height by half inch. But yeah 3 inch above average is lot. I think rahane is average range according to delhi or punjabi people height.
Inches_to_cm said on 1/Jan/21
@Rajiv, about Rahane I'd go with 5'7, 5'6 is too low I'd guess. So the countrywide average is 5'5 or so, I believe. But there was a study about 18 year olds in 2014, who were privately educated middle and upper/upper-middle class, from urban areas. I came across this a few months ago. The median height was around 5'8.5, much higher than the countrywide average.
So if you are an Indian journalist who is middle or upper-class, you would be very likely to bump into many people north of 5'7. Having lived in India for a while, I know that among richer people, 5'9-5'11 range is fairly common, and 6'0-6'1 isn't uncommon at all. Beyond 6'1-6'2 is rarer, but not impossible to find. This was in Delhi anyway, where you tend to have taller Punjabi people, as compared to say Mumbai, where there are more Maharashtrians and Gujaratis.
Another is if you compare Rahane to the other dudes on the field. The shortest Aussie would be Matthew Wade (Warner hasn't been playing), and he is 5'7.5 as per your guess (that'd be accurate I think). The Indians as tall as or shorter than Rahane are Jadeja (he may be a bit taller), Pant and Shaw. Vihari,Pujara,KL Rahul, Ashwin, Bumrah, Kohli, Shami, Siraj, Agarwal....they are all taller.
So among Indians as a whole, Rahane is perfectly average or even above average. But India is a big country, he is a cricket player, so I guess you need to consider all this.
Rajiv roy said on 31/Dec/20
@ inches to cm, yes after mcg win he would feel like the tallest man in the world. But how tall do you think rahane really is? Dont know why commentators call him as a short stature guy. Strong 5'7 in india is around the average range in india. Maybe a bit taller than average. He does not look much shorter than kohli
Inches_to_cm said on 29/Dec/20
Rajiv after today's win at the MCG, Rahane probably feels around 10 feet tall.
Rajiv roy said on 29/Dec/20
@2pacalypse wow, dont think rahane is that short. Maybe 5'7.25" is possible. Look about good 2 inch shorter than kohli.
2pacalypse wow said on 28/Dec/20
@Rajiv roy, Rahane could be 5'6.5" I think.
2pacalypse wow said on 28/Dec/20
@Rajiv roy, yeah obviously we're just guessing but there is off course some margin for error. Good listings. Although I can't see Wade above 5'7".
Rajiv roy said on 28/Dec/20
Nope. Its not. Wade is 5' 7.5". Finch 5' 8.5" . Khwaja 5'8.25" .maxwell 5' 11.75" . Paine 5' 11. Ponting- 5'8.5" peak currently 5'8. Clarke - 5'9.75" . Late hughes - 5' 6.5".warne - 5'11" peak currently 5' 10.5" . Lee - 6'0.5" peak currently 6'.25". Thats more accurate.
2pacalypse wow said on 27/Dec/20
Steve Smith- 5'8.75"
David Warner-5'6.25"
Aaron Finch-5'8.25"
Mathew Wade-5'6.75"
Tim Paine-5'10.5"
Usman Khawaja-5'8.5"
Glenn Maxwell-5'11.5"
Nathan Lyon-6'0"
Pat Cummins-6"3"
Mitchell Starc-6'5.25"
Josh Hazzlewood-6'4'75"
Some legends
Ricky Ponting-5'8'5"
Micheal Clarke-5'10"
Micheal Hussey-5'10.5"
Justin Langer-5'5'75"
Phillip Hughes-5'5'75" (R.I.P)
Shane Warne-5'11"
Brett Lee-6'0.5"
I think this is a pretty accurate listing from what I've observed.
Rajiv roy said on 27/Dec/20
@2pacalypse wow, i think 5 foot 6.5 like warner in that photo. Langer tilted his head down. Possibly 5.7 at peak. Ponting i believe 5 foot 8.5 at peak currently about 5.8 .smith maybe weak 5.9. These are all guesses really. We dont know their true height. I always get confuse about ajinkya rahane's height. When he first came into international arena, did not even look legit 5.6. After few years he looked taller like almost 5.7. But comparing his height with kohli. He looked 5'7.5". Is he growing at the age of 32? Surely not.
Rajiv roy said on 25/Dec/20
@2pacalypse wow, sorry but 5.9 for steve smith is bit too much. 5'8.75" is real posibility . Kohli could be 5'9.5".smith could be 5'8.5" too .
2pacalypse wow said on 24/Dec/20
@Rajiv roy, yeah Warner I think is probably 5'6.25"-5'6.5" 169 cm is probably a fair listing without meeting him. Steve Smith has a good 2.5 inches on him so he's probably 5'9" range. Burst Kholi is a little taller so 5'9.5" is probably a good shout.
Rajiv roy said on 24/Dec/20
@2pacalypse wow, i thought strong 5.6 like 5'6.25" for him. But looks a good 169 cm or 5.6 and a half guy . So want rob to list him at 5 foot 6 and a half or 169 cm.

Rajiv roy said on 18/Nov/20
@ rampage clover, if cooky easily clears 6.2 then he cant be 6 foot 2.25 inches.he has to be 6. 2 and half. I think this is his true height.but then again eye level are different for every person even at similar heights. His eyelevel can be 5 inches too and not 4.75 inches
Dave Mills said on 18/Nov/20
@Rampage(-_-_-)Clover cricketer's physical stats are often registered in late teens and often they even debut internationally at ages 18 or 19.thus they often tend to look taller than their listing, Virat Kohli (An Indian Cricketer) debut at the age of 19 and has been listed as 5'9 ever since but since there's a slight chance of growth at that age , I won't be surprised if Rob ends up listing him between 5'9 & 5'10(that is if he does ever get listed).
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Nov/20
I think there's a 50/50 chance of this guy measuring either 6ft2¾ or 6ft2¼. He easily clears 6ft2 but doesn't quite make the 6ft3 mark either...cricket tends to be more accurate with their player profiles.
Rajiv roy said on 16/Nov/20
Rob, would you be shocked if cook is measured at 6 foot 2.75 inches around lunch time? Like if his eyelevel is 5 inches and not 4.75 inches.
Editor Rob
wouldn't be a big shock...it would be more of a shock a flat 6ft 2 for him!
Rajiv roy said on 12/Nov/20
@ inches to cm, do you think cook needs to be upgraded a bit like quarter inches?
Editor Rob
I feel around 189 is what he could measure
Inches_to_cm said on 11/Nov/20
Rajiv Roy.....I really can't say, haven't paid too much attention. Haven't met either of these guys in person, but did see Cook in public once, and he looked 6'3 or so, a bit taller than most of the crowd.
Rajiv roy said on 9/Nov/20
@ chilling, bro how tall is james anderson ? I think 6 foo 1 and a half is possible yeah. Another thing do you know how tall is dale steyn? Google listed him at 179 cm.
Rajiv roy said on 9/Oct/20
Looking at you beside cook i think 189.2 cm is possible. Because you are 173 cm and with half inch hair 174 cm. Cooks left eye was probably 3 cm higher. So 177 cm. Avg eye level is 11.5 cm . So 188.5 cm . But he is a tall guy . So eye level would be 12.2 cm or 4.75 inch . So 189.2 cm or 6 foot 2 and a half. But is it his afternoon height rob? Please tell me.

He is almost same height with my 6ft 2 tall buddy named Darren.

Why are his cheeks so red? Lol
Editor Rob
I forgot to mention I was in the queue beside a very tall guy in front of me, Alastair actually commented on the guy's tall height, he was about 6ft 6.

His ‘official’ listing is only 6’2”....not convinced he’s any taller in this photo?

Its worth noting most of the very best batsman to ever play the game are often quite short, certainly sub 5'10
Sachin Tendulkar = 5'4/5'5
Brian Lara = 5'8
Ricky Ponting = 5'8
Virat Kohli = 5'8/5'9
Steve Smith = 5'9
David Warner = 5'6 (really think he's barely this)
Kumar Sangakkarra = 5'9/5'10
Viv Richards = 5'10
Of course you'll get the likes of KP and Cook who excel, but they're the exception not the norm, often the very very best, i.e. the GOAT's, usually are average at best.
Seam bowlers on the other hand could be basketball players (except for Dale Steyn)
Thanks for putting up cricketers Rob. Your not a cricket fan as you say but there are a lot who are and we really do appreciate it. Would be great if you could get any more e.g. Jimmy Anderson, Stuart Broad, Joe Root, Ben Stokes etc.

Absolute legend! Was listed 6'2 during his England days.

He’s been given both 6ft2 and 6ft3...could look either so yeah this is a good settlement

To be fair , if Tom Welling get's a 6'2.5 listing , he also deserves
Mew said on 10/Aug/19
Sir plz add cricketers category it would be great full to see some of the big names
Editor Rob

He's not taller than Justin Hartley or jack Coleman compare to you.
Sakz said on 10/Aug/19
I can see him looking around the listing if he stood completely straight.
@Rob Were you aware of who he was before you met him?
Editor Rob
Yes, I was aware of Cook.
Canson said on 10/Aug/19
Agree with Andrea. Looks at least 6’2” not 6’2.5. I think something like 189 cm fits better or perhaps 6’2.25 than 6’2.5 at least based on the picture with Rob
Redwing said on 10/Aug/19
Are you guys standing straight in this pic rob??
Editor Rob
I would say we are both standing about similar posture that moment
Mickie said on 9/Aug/19
I trust Rob's guess in person.
tajaun gibbison said on 9/Aug/19
Very accurate listing!
emre celep said on 9/Aug/19
looks about 190 cm
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 9/Aug/19
Great new picture, Rob! Alastair exudes friendliness and looks the 6ft2.5 you have given him.
😁👍😋👍
Andrea said on 9/Aug/19
Not sure about 6'2.5, but it certainly looks like he would be at least 6'2, from the pic (although his thick hair skews things a bit).
Editor Rob
I don't really watch cricket, but I was aware before meeting Alastair he had been described at 6ft 2, sometimes even 6ft 3 by people.
For me, he did seem a bit taller than 6ft 2 flat - sometimes though, he has looked 2 inches shorter than kevin pietersen...but that guy is what you call 6ft 4 at night really.
