I'm 6ft 6in tall, and if I had a pound for every person who said to me: “Oh, you're massive!” when they meet me, I'd be above Simon Cowell on the rich list.

Bo Burnham looks way more imposing than Ashley Banjo, at times.
No offense, but you seem to be very weirdly obsessed with Bo Burnham. Are you related to him some way or do you know him irl? Do you have a crush on him?

Banjo did look taller than Usain Bolt, with Jonathan Ross.

It’s a weird comparison, but one is 6’0”-6’1”. The other is 6’3”-6’4”.

Rob, who do you think would measure taller between this guy and Bo Burnham?
His 6ft6 is a bit of a stretch but not completely off the wall...early morning I'm sure he'd get it

I am watching Ashley on 'Catch Phrase' and he's admitted to the height of 6ft6, so I assume he makes a point of being measured in the morning! He's won and is about to tackle the 'Super Catch Phrase' for 50K.
Lorraine Kelly, 5ft4, and always in high heels being the shoe-lover that she is, looks TINY next to him! Ashley's winnings are going to Well Child. Good luck Ashley! 🤞😁
He can have 6ft5.5.
By the way, Ashley won £7,200 for the needy youngsters.

I’ve underestimated this guy, badly. You’re spot on with this listing.

Ashley Banjo looks at least one inch taller than Usain Bolt, with Jonathan Ross. This listing is really spot on, for sure. What do you think?

At the same time, with Jack Black, Ashley Banjo looks taller than Tim Robbins.
I think this is a good listing.

Ashley Banjo towers the s@#t out of 6’1” listed Jonathan Ross, despite having less footwear.

@Dream Bo look 6'6 straight away if we go by listing from 6'5 Pete Holmes. In fact worst they could be half inch lower at a low.

Perri looks about six foot next to him recently in that full Monty show. That would be my guess for him if Ashley is 6ft 5

Maybe just 1/16" over 6'5". He looked a little shorter than Dan Walker, with a slouch. Dan Snow looked much taller than Dan Walker.

Sometimes, Bo Burnham can truly look a lot taller than 6’5.25”. I think out of all the strong 6’5”ers, Wladimir Klitschko would be the one I would compare Bo to, the most. Dan Snow and Bo Svenson are others that could also be 6’5.25”-6’5.5”.

He's certainly a very tall guy I can buy 6'5" - 6'5.25" could be right on 196 cm.

I think solid 6’5 at a low. 6’6 in shoes. Overlisted by 1/4”. Not quite as tall as Burnham

I was amazed at his shoulder width. Mine are a puny 17" across whereas I think Ashley's must be at least 23-24". He does look like a very big boned guy, I can easily believe 6'6".

@Dream: he does. I can agree that he’s near this listing but not a legit 6’6” like he claims. I see 6’6” out of bed as a good possibility or it’s his height in shoes. He isn’t under 6’5”. He looks a strong 6’5” to be honest, worst case bang on 6’5”.

I just saw him fleetingly on 'Britain's Got Talent', though I'm none the wiser as to how tall he is!
I suppose I'll have to go with 6ft5 then. At least I know who he is now!

MJKoP, You do know that when you use ad hominem, you've lost an argument?
Take a crash course in sarcasm/irony. Once you learn that such implementations can be used to buttress an argument for comedic effect rather than diminish the overall value, we can talk once again.

I think this height is just below the delimitation between "very tall" and extremely tall" (he will clear the latter mark in he morning though).
It's one of the heights i wished to grow to :(
Maybe i can get another half a cm in these 2 years to be able to claim 192,5 as my low...but 193 cm would also be perfect to end all answers if using the imperial system...but i guess you have like a

More chance of him being above this listing than below, do you agree Rob? Also you should maybe add Jordan Banjo, I believe he's claimed 6'4 & 6'5 In the past

Looked about 6'5 on Dancing on Ice this year. You could see he was tall when he stood next to the contestants, who were wearing ice skates. Probably 6'6 with footwear.
