I think at his peak he was maybe 7’0 1/4 at a low, normally speaking at his current age he would have shrunk a tad to maybe 6’11 3/4, but his hip replacement might have altered his height a bit more and it’s hard to tell from their height in the ring since he probably wears boots.

So the picture with big show and omos is big show wearing slightly bigger sneakers or after his knee surgery could he have be back to roughly 7ft ish or is omos really 7ft 2 or is show slightly in front of omos

Hitting his 50’s and having a hip replaced he has lost height - which I say is good for him it will make life a little easy. Big show is looking a lot shorter I say his 6’9 max.

Re: Shaq and Big Show from 2016, this is their heights from the top of the foot up. Click Here As they measure up just about the same as in their footwear, there’s zero chance of Big Show wearing lifts (or if he wore lifts, Shaq was wearing the same size lifts).
Here is Big Show without his wrestler shoes next to Shaq,with a very low angle of camera that reduce their real height difference = Click Here Then Big Show had very probably advantageous shoes on ring,because here Shaq simply dwarfs him...

@James Hendrix
I disagree. I think your peak barefoot heights for Show are more likely his in-ring gear height. He was for sure a 7 footer with boots on, maybe a hair more.
That said, I don't think he was ever 7 foot barefoot in his life. Highest I'd say is 6'11" in the 90's.

@ Vegas,
Anthony Becht’s official NFL combine measurements were 6’5.75” & 270 lbs. Becht is now 43 years old. Good chance he’s only 6’5.5” now. IMO, Paul Wight looks exactly 6’9.75” in that photo. If footwear is somewhat equal to Anthony’s ?
I doubt you lose height at 43. Some do but most don’t. I could see maybe a couple mm but the vast majority unless a major injury has affected them don’t. In reality, the combine is held early morning so that would be around what he is (6’5.25-.5) in the afternoon

In the picture with Big Show and Jordan O. Big Show is definitely wearing lifts, If show is 6'9, there is no way he would measure up that close to someone who is 7'1, Jordan is most likely no longer in his in-ring footwear, Big Show still is. Jordan is most likely 7'2 barefoot, Big Show looks to be rockin a 2 inch lift if his feet are flat on the ground.

Show is holding up very well with 7'2 Jordan there, great posture. Taking things into account I suspect there would be a solid 3 inch gap between them in a staredown.
If Show is 6'9 as some keep saying these days, Jordan should be able to look over the top of his head with ease.

@ChaosControl 6'2.5
I understand why you may put his peak at 7 foot, but 6'11.75 is more realistic, Him losing 4 or 3.5 inches over the time span of his career, just does not sit right with me. During his WCW days, He looks 7 foot max in wrestling boots, and 6'11.75 outside the ring. He maybe can wake up a 7 footer but his posture isn't definitely not A1, he would most likely be 7 foot for an hour or 2 at most.

@ChaosControl 6'2.5 I personally just do not see a 7 footer, I see a straight and narrow, 6'11.75, I can see him being 7 foot early in the morning, before his regular posture takes a hold of him.
But as far as replacing 6'11.75, with 7'0, that can maybe seem a little bit of stretch. Big Show being 7'0 for maybe 2 or 3 hours before dropping down to 6'11.75 is maybe realistic, but as far as him losing height, him being 6'11.75 is way more realistic then him dropping 4 or 3 inches from 7 foot, in nearly 20 years.

Big Show is a very easy. 1990s Big Show in WCW or WWE is 6'11.75, Seeing that he had the same features of Andre the Giant is what gave him his debut name "The Giant". Now, knowing that in ring he Wears a 1 inch boot lift, He would easily be 7 foot, Now let's say he gains weight around 1997, during the Attitude Era he was roughly down to 6'11, with that being said He was no longer as slim as he was giving that 7 foot and over illusion that some of us see, with Andre The Giant, and The Great Khali.
2002, Big Show was roughly 300 plus pounds, and also taking some agile moves at the time, with wrestling and weight, and his most of the time slouching posture His height could vary from 6'11 to 6'10.75. Big Show's girth at this time would give the same illusion his slimness would, Him gaining weight would add to his height so to speak as far as illusion. Big Show would lose his first inch, at 2009, where he was roughly his heaviest, and he may have hit the 380+ plus pound mark. He also began to lean on his right leg more often which can make you lose an inch or so.
From 2009 to 2011, Big Show was at his heaviest, losing maybe an inch and a half throughout the day, So I would say 6'11 range down to 6'10.5 due to girth, weight and continus back curves, and in ring moves.
During the 2013-2016 easily 3 years, He could have made his weight transformation, But due to all that weight he was carrying and Deterioration in his legs, and a hip surgery if I'm correct, can drop him down to 6'10 to 6'9.5 range. The compression on his spine and wrestling can take a toll on his size as you can see how he began to lose height throughout those years.
From 2016 to 2020, Big Show is a leaner person due to losing weight, Big Show's toll of slams, and weight took a toll on his height also. Big Show can now be seen from 6'10, maybe lasting about 3 or 4 hours before gravity and his frame drop him down to 6'9.5
With all that being said here are my guesses with barefoot and ring gear.
Peak barefoot:
Morning 7'0 (6:00am to 10:00am)
Evening 6'11.75 (12:ooam to 3:00pm)
Noon: 6'11 (6:00pm to 9:30pm)

I see no evidence of Nash being taller than show.
Show’s and Matt Morgan are two guys who didn’t look their billed height to me when I saw them in person. Show was 03 and he looked like crap. Not what I’d expect 7ft to look like.
He’s certainly lost height.
If I had to say looking at all the pics and all the pics of other guys to the nearest inch I’d say 6’9. I have a family member who’s legit 6’7.5 and Show looks noticeably taller than him.
It’s a very different visual seeing a a guy with perfect a posture at 6’7.5 and a huge guy all hunched up and broken down at 6’9.
I wonder on a photograph or even seeing in person who would appear tallest.
I could actually see a peak WCW mid 90’s Giant being 7ft, he had great posture.
Today show’s knees bow in dramatically, his upper back is curved and he looks like a different person.
7’0 peak, 6’9 today.

Idk, if Quinton is still 500 or more pounds then 1.5 isn’t impossible, but maybe 1.25 is what he loses. Show is over 100 pounds less, but the longer spine and thicker structure may have him lose more. Hafthor is also someone who loses 1.25ish at over 400 pounds.
@Chaos Control:
Those estimates definitely sound like a strong possibility. Wouldn’t put him under 6’9.5” today.

I doubt Big Show would lose less than someone like Quinton though. Show's an acromegalic, so he's naturally a bigger framed guy, so chances are that his spinal column and discs are bigger and thicker, even though he currently may weigh less than Quinton. Both may lose 1.25" in a day I'm guessing.

Depending on his current weight, even 1.25 inch height loss is possible during the day. A guy like Quinton Aaron who is 500 pounds is going to lose 1.5 inches easy. At his current height and weight, 1.25 is a good possibility.

But wouldn’t a 5.2 eye level put his head at more like 11 inches? If it really is 12 it would be at least 5.5 possibly 5.75 right? I’m not a head size expert so I’m not too sure, and I’m not arguing with you just curious.

The Big Show, is a very weak 6'9. He lost weight, and also height. I belive he began to lose height after 2002, and so on. When he had his first in ring confrontation with The Great Khali, he was closer in height, Khali back then was a strong 7'1, Big Show would be a very strong 6'11 3/4 during the time.
For some reason, I just can't see this fat dude as a 6'10 or 7'0 guy. This man is about 3 inches taller then Kane, flat. That's a weak 6'9, and maybe early in the morning He can measure a weak 6'10 for a good 4 to 5 hours, and lose an inch or so and be to around 6'9

When he had his first in ring confrontation with The Great Khali, he was closer in height, Khali back then was a strong 7'1, Big Show would be a very strong 6'11 3/4 during the time.

He doesn't really look super tall on his Netflix series. a big guy fore sure, but not anywhere near 7" today. To me even in his younger days he needed obvious lifts to pass for a 7'er.

I feel as if Big Show is about 6'9 3/4, Which is really believable considering Wrestlers could be working a half inch lift inside their boots and an inch standing on their boot sole.
Which is what I always assumed for wrestlers such as The Great Khali, Big Show, etc.
But it has never been proven that they do, so I will say Big Show in ring, solid 6'10, and Big Show day to day outside of the ring, 6'9 3/4.

I have noticed this cycle, is about the same as Andre The Giant. Andre lost height also, but would he be as short as Big Show is during his last and few WWF days. I still feel as if Big Show could be a very weak 6'10, or 6'9 1/4. Nash is not taller then show, I refuse to believe that until proven different, He may be a little under show, but not by much. As far as, Show's peak height, He had to have been 7 feet, or 6'11 3/4. During those days, He honestly had no eye to eye competition, So his lifts were not as thick as they could be now.
But as far as him and Nash Being the same height, I can see that, and also not see it.
Nash has a more straight posture, Big show is more down his back, slouching type dude.
Big Show standing straight as of 2020, would be 6'9 1/4, in wrestling boots, 6'11.

It's honestly impossible for Show to still be 6'10". He's simply not that tall anymore, you can tell just by looking at him with fans, walking around in crowds, and during the Undertaker farewell, he wasn't looking like a 6'10" guy at all.
Rob, downgrading Show to at least 6'9.5" would be more accurate I'd say, but I don't even think he's that tall.

I’m not seeing how he looks that over listed in that pic. Maybe 6’9.5”, but when he stood really well with Joe manganiello it is hard to argue 6’9” flat. 6’9.5” is a good shout IMO.
@Roderick:
He is likely falling under the mark today, but it is not more than a fraction. 6’9” flat is too low. The damage wrestling does to the spine causes some wrestlers to walk and stand shorter than they may measure. In pics he can still look close to 6’10”

I feel as if Big Show should stay as 6'10, and no less than. Big show does not stand straight all the time, He slouches and is often leaning on his legs and straightening the opposite, and it can be seen in multiple videos, pictures, etc. I feel as if Big show standing straight, with Kevin Nash He would have an inch or more on him.
If we examine the photos more closely, Kevin Nash is also wearing sneakers where as Big Show is wearing Dress shoes. (regarding the picture with Big Show and Nash standing face to face)
If we examine the picture with Big Show, Nash, and Taker. Big show is tilting downward by a little, and is also Closer to the Camera. Big Show could have more then an Inch on Nash, had they stood Side by Side. Nash being farther away from the Camera shows, gives him the advantage of LOOKING taller.
My personal opinion would be Big show is 6'10, weakly.

Big show holds up very well next to Joe Manganiello, as pointed out by Robbe. Here is another picture that I don’t think Robbe has posted yet:

Taking into account head size of Big Show, he looks very tall there. Show may even have a small camera disadvantage with a little tilt. Manganiello is no way any less than 6’4.5”, and in the double shot with Rob and Jenny he easily looks it. There are even more shots of them where Show can hold up even better. The pic with Kevin Nash is a bad picture, typical of Pierre. I have Show at 6’9.5” minimum, possibly 6’10”.

Yeah Shaq was standing next to a height gauge at around 7"2' in shoes,but apparently this height gauge could be a bit advantageous = here a guy measured 5"10' by his doctor(so 5"11' with 1 inch shoes) is nearly 6"0' mark by this height gauge and not around 5"11' mark Click Here Click Here .If the graduations are too short this means more you're tall more the height gauge in proportion will be generous.

Anyway, 6'8 is a joke for current Show. Like said, he howers around 6'9.5/6'10.

When you post pictures of Show, check his head size Lol Drew has bigger head than Show there. Means he is a lot closer to the camera. That was really a terrible pic, really.
Show with 6'4.75 Joe Manganiello.
Click Here
Bang on Show's eyeline. Hard to say where Joe's top of head is exactly due to his hairstyle, but probably a bit lower than drawed line. Show has minimum 5in eyeline, so 6'4.75 + 5 = 6'9.75. Most likely Show's eyeline is a bit more, so he looks more or less 6'10 there. Just like with that Sun reporter.

About an inch heels. Front heel looks also pretty thick too. Show's shoes lookes slightly thicker, that's true. But anyway, Show doesn't look anywhere near 6'8.5 there either.
@Canson, yeah, he is always quick to remind about low angles, and being closer to the camera, but forgets those things when posting pics which supports his own narratives. But hey, that's the whole idea on this site, Lol :D
@Robbe: he’s an interesting poster but I like and respect Pierre. He’s a nice guy too. His methods are different. But By Interesting, meaning he’s different from others but we’re all different. Thats what makes the site as fun and interesting as it is. But as far as calling out the low camera angle and someone being disadvantaged or favored by a camera, that has to go both ways.
Lol if it isn’t advantageous (or shall I say) if it goes against the narrative, it’s best not to even bring the picture into evidence 😂 😂 and just play dumb lol. We’ve all been guilty of using pics to support the narrative although I’m a lot more careful now a days than I was years ago. But Even when you think you have the best picture possible, someone finds something wrong with it
And you’re right. I will say for basketball listings, I’ve definitely never seen 6’9 to 7’1 but I’ve seen a 6’9 range guy listed at 7’0”. Hakeem Olajuwon was. I doubt Hakeem was a full 6’10”. More 6’9.5 and that’s according to his teammate Mario Elie who said he’s closer to 6’9”. But yea Show looked over 6’10 with Shaq. If Shaq was a solid 7’0” peak, Show had to have at least been around 6’10.5”. Shaq claimed 6’11.75 too which means 6’10.25 is a possibility for Show at that stage but that’s probably a stretch (when he met Shaq). Today, I can see a bit (up to .5”) under 6’10” being a remote possibility but 6’10” flat is too.

Shane's shoes here Click Here
About an inch heels. Front heel looks also pretty thick too. Show's shoes lookes slightly thicker, that's true. But anyway, Show doesn't look anywhere near 6'8.5 there either.
@Canson, yeah, he is always quick to remind about low angles, and being closer to the camera, but forgets those things when posting pics which supports his own narratives. But hey, that's the whole idea on this site, Lol :D
@Robbe: he’s an interesting poster but I like and respect Pierre. He’s a nice guy too. His methods are different. But By Interesting, meaning he’s different from others but we’re all different. Thats what makes the site as fun and interesting as it is. But as far as calling out the low camera angle and someone being disadvantaged or favored by a camera, that has to go both ways.
Lol if it isn’t advantageous (or shall I say) if it goes against the narrative, it’s best not to even bring the picture into evidence 😂 😂 and just play dumb lol. We’ve all been guilty of using pics to support the narrative although I’m a lot more careful now a days than I was years ago. But Even when you think you have the best picture possible, someone finds something wrong with it

Lol basketball players are lots of time listed no less than 2 inches taller than their real heights ,so argue Big Show was really 7"0' because he was listed 7"1' as a basketball player is a terrible argument in fact
That isn’t true at all. In fact, it’s very rare to be listed more than 2” above. But It varies case by case. Michael Jordan wasn’t listed 2” taller than he was barefoot. Jordan was 194-195 afternoon height and somewhere in the 196-197 (probably 196-196.5) range out of bed. If you think about it, the guys now a days are measured early morning so it’s technically not 2” above their listing. But Some players are only 1” below their afternoon listings. So some examples
Stephen Curry (listed 6’3) measured 6’2 early morning (6’1.5) afternoon
Kobe Bryant (RIP) 6’6 listing and 6’4.75 barefoot
Jordan my estimation is 6’4.5 barefoot (afternoon):6’5.25 out of bed and 6’6 listing as always in the pros
Draymond Green (debatable) but isn’t under 6’5 flat afternoon height. If his measurement was around an hour out of bed, Rob’s listing of 6’5.25 is accurate. To be fair, he can look that height with Paul Pogba and also 6’5.5 in some pics so the listing is probably ok. He was listed at 6’7” previously before the “wish we were official” measurements came out this past season. Now he’s listed 6’6”
Same with Klay Thompson
Then there are guys like Kevin Garnett and Kevin Durant who were listed at their barefoot heights
Technically, we use the afternoon standard here on this site but if they are measured in the morning, it is a legit measurement (although not a very accurate reflection of your true height). Therefore you may get a 6’3 guy who is listed 6’5 because he’s 6’3.5 in the early morning or 6’3 3/8 rounded to 6’3.5 and 6’4.75 in shoes. But he’s 6’3 in the afternoon. However, based on his measurement it’s only 1.5” difference

I met Big Show and McIntyre in same building and Big Show was ~7 inches taller, both out of gear.
Wight made Luger look short in WCW Click Here
I have college listings and barefoot measurements of over 150 players on hand. Over 2 inch inflation is quite rare. Off top of my head only like 20 players out of 155 were overlisted by 2 inches over barefoot. Handful actually measured above their college listings but it was 1/4 inch above.

About Show's peak height, it's totally ridiculous to even suggest he was 6'9/6'10 peak, they don't list such heights at 7'1, as Show was listed when he played basketball. That's shoe height, so he was around 7ft. Maybe 6'11.5 if he played with 1.5in shoes. Could have been legit 7 footer also. Not over though.
But he has shrunk, as we all know. He howers around 6'9.5/6'10 nowadays. At military posture, still 6'10 i believe. Pity there's only one picture Show vs THor, where Show looks 4.5in taller, but angle is just terrible. Big Rob estimated Show was favored by 1.5in there.

@Pierre: why do you only bring up the low camera angle when the celeb you’re estimating looks taller than they do in your narrative? Your pics have the other celeb you’re comparing them to closer to the camera in many cases. There is no way Big Show was only 6’9” or 6’10 in his prime. Even with Shaquille O’Neal he looked over 6’10”. That’s a 1.5” difference between them. The pic was taken many years ago but unless we were to say that Shaq is 6’11.5 then Show would be over 6’10”.

To be exact, the guy on the left is 218cm, and the guy on the right is 217cm. So, when you post pictures, bare in mind this. Being slighly closer to the camera can make a huge effect.
Some user, i wont mention his name, has posted like 1000 times, over and over and over again, this picture Thor vs Strowman. If we look at this "famous" pic, compared to the pic above, and focus on their feet, you get my meaning?

Big show has always been much taller than Kane. I met both of them out of gear a number of times.
Of course a video taken from low angle would make difference look less Click Here

Show with 6'8 Big Cass.

Looks around 6'11 there. I think there's too much fuss about Big Show's wrestling boots. They don't differ so much compared to other wrestlers boots. Show looks also barefoot noticeable taller than Akebono, as seen from the pic posted earlier.
Show can look 6'8-6'9 range many times, but it's often due to camera angle, and the fact he rarely stands straight. When he does, he is still around listed. Also, the idea he is wearing inner lifts in his wrestling boots is just crazy. So no need for downgrad Show. Well, maybe he's lowest is nowadays 6'9.5, in a bad day :D

I don't know who the guys are next to Show, but they are probably 6'6-6'7 range. Show looks like 5in taller there. Anybody who claims 6'9 peak for Show is trolling, or just dumb.

Picture is i believe from 2005. Both men likely still in peak. Big question is how much Show has shrunk in the past 15 years. Definitely no more than 2in. Most likely a bit less.
Big Show's head is about 11.5-12in i think, like shown in the chart.

That’s not a 5” difference with Show and Taker. Even giving Taker the extra 1/4 that Rob knocked off his peak that would make Show 6’11.5 tops. That’s 4” between them. Really Taker wouldn’t be 6’7.5 if Sid was 6’6.25. That was max 1” taller. Show could’ve conceivably been under 7’ peak height not over

Grant has big head, like 2in bigger than Alex Molden's, who has probably average 9in head.

Why to look at those terrible angle photos with McEnroe, when there is much better angled photo with Alex. Grant is standing very relaxed there, and still hits the 6'8 mark.
Height chart i posted with Big Show vs Grant wasn't so bad actually. Maybe slightly Exaggerated. Big Show has no less than 5in eyeline, which also appears bang on in the chart. Anyway, i don't believe Show is really 6'11, but he aint so low as 6'8.5. Absolutely minimum is 6'9.5 in my opinion. My guess is still though 6'10. He looks that when standing tall.

Here are some screen caps from the opposite side of the arena when Shaq was in the ring with Big Show in 2009 Click Here
I guess a 2012 Big Show must have grown to 7’2” as he comes out around 4 inches shorter than Yao Ming………. Click Here
Robbe, you tilted the Hafthor/Richters picture 4 degrees Click Here which is too much. Plus, if you are going to use barefoot heights with the height ruler, the bottom of the ruler needs to start where the bottom of the person’s bare foot would be (e.g., ~ 1.25” above the ground if the person is wearing a standard tennis or dress shoe), not the bottom of the sole on the shoe. Otherwise, the scale of the ruler is thrown off.

According to the height chart, Big Show is 6'11.
Click Here
I put BG:s height at 6'7.5 there, with 5in eyeline.
Imo this scale is too generous = Big Show has a better posture than Brian Grant,he's even tiptoeing a bit in this pic,clearly he's stretching up and has a very good posture while Brian is streching down,by adjusting his size a bit for the pic next to the shortest man.Brian Grant is probably never 6"7.5' in this pic next to Big Show.Next to John Mc Enroe around 5"10'(not particularly very straight in the pic ) Brian looks in good posture and even here he looks hardly 6"7'. Click Here other= Click Here
And by this scale the lower head of Brian is around 5"8' and the top of his head around 6"7.5'that would mean his head size would be around 11.5 inches,that seams to me very unlikely.This means the graduations of this scale are too short and so the scale too generous for this reason too.
Here is Dirk Nowitski next to 7"0.25' Shaq (lots of times Dirk closer to the camera)= Click Here Click Here Click Here
He looks clearly shorter than Shaq.He's listed 6"11'/7"0' in web .Let's say he's 6"11.5'...
here is Dirk slouching a lot to the opposite side to the camera(so shrink a lot plus more distant to the camera than Big Show so Big Show has logically the advantage of the camera = Click Here .Dirk clearly dwarfs Big Show if both guys are standing in similar posture . Big Show by this comparison is never close to 6"11' or even close to the 6"10' mark.
Big Show is 6"8.5' absolute max by this comparison too.

I have no problem believing he was 7'0.5" before he experienced any height loss. Imo, Andre the Giant was about the same height (7'0.25") before he experienced any height loss. Like the Adren who has major surgeries, both of their heights were severely reduced due to the knife. In Big Show's case, he had hip replacement (you can see how much shorter his femur bone is today compared to the mid-late 1990's, as well as back surgery. He's at best 6'9" today. Andre had back surgeries, ankle and knee surgeries and became extremely hunched over, reducing his height to 6'9"-6'10" by the time he passed away in the early 1990's.

@Canson = By John McEnroe Brian isn't as tall as 6"7' to me.Maybebrian lost a bit height by the years.Basketball is know to be a hard sport for the skeleton.A friend of mine who practiced basketball(and not even as a professional) lost an inch before the age of forty.He was 5"11' now he's hardly 5"10'.
Did he really lose an inch or was it a claim or a morning height to an afternoon? I’ve never heard of that without a major physical injury. As for Grant, he looks 6’7.5ish next to Caron Butler and Lamar Odom along with Eddie Jones In the one photo. He’s not under 6’7”.

@Canson = By John McEnroe Brian isn't as tall as 6"7' to me.Maybebrian lost a bit height by the years.Basketball is know to be a hard sport for the skeleton.A friend of mine who practiced basketball(and not even as a professional) lost an inch before the age of forty.He was 5"11' now he's hardly 5"10'.
Did he really lose an inch or was it a claim or a morning height to an afternoon? I’ve never heard of that without a major physical injury. As for Grant, he looks 6’7.5ish next to Caron Butler and Lamar Odom along with Eddie Jones In the one photo. He’s not under 6’7”.

Ike Catcher's height is a bit mystery. He can look 6'9 with 7'1.5 listed Olivier Richters, but surprisingly looks only 6'7 next to a 7ft guy.
Click Here
I wonder if Richters is really 7'1.5. He generally looks more like a strong 7ft.
Ike is also several inches shorter than 6'11.25 measured Brook Lopez. Ike much closer to the camera there Click Here
Looks 6'7.75 with 6'4.75 Lennox Lewis Click Here
Maybe 6'7.75 is what he is. Picture with Lennox is actually pretty good.

According to that comparison, Markkanen is 6in taller than Khali :D

Rob, you need to upgrade Big Show's current and peak height based on the Brian Grant photo. He was measured 6'8 1/2" without shoes in pre draft measurements. Draft Express used to have it before they ruined their site.
This site still has it. Change it to imperial for the proper measurement.

Brian Grant is that in shoes imho. They listed him at 6’8 at one stage during his career and used to point out his height as being undersized a lot during his career. Grant looked shorter than 6’8 Karl Malone at times. I’d say 6’7.5” barefoot 6’8.5 with shoes
And Sadly enough, he has Parkinson’s Disease now Which I didnt realize or had slipped my mind. I wish him well with his battle

Let's say John Mc Enroe is around 5"10'.If Brian Grant is 6"8.5' this means he's around 10.5 inches taller than John so comfortably a complete head(Brian's head does not look particularly big in this pic next to Big show and the shortest guy).That is not the case here,John is comfortably two inches above Brian's chin ... Click Here =both guys around same distance to the camera in this one
Big Show imo has a better posture than Brian,imo he try to stretching up (by tiptoeing a bit in the pic) while Briant stands in a very classic posture,plus Big Show's soles are looking bigger than Brian's soles.

Show has always been a posture guy.
There's no doubt he's lost height, but I think if he had a gun to his head and had to stand as tall as he physically could (military posture), he might surprise a few people even today. Look at the staredowns with Strowman after he slimmed down, in the few brief moments he really cranked himself out it could look a pretty big difference. Then when they go face to face he can go back to hunching.

Nice find, that's what you get when you post real pictures of Big Show next to other tall people, instead of crappy comparison shots.
Big Show is clearly several inches taller than Brian Grant, who measured 6'8 ½" at the NBA pre-draft in 1994. He might've lost some height, though basketball players generaly manage to maintain most of their height even when they get older.
And no, Big Show isn't tippy toeing there. You need to raise both feet to gain extra height and his right foot is clearly flat on the ground.

Despite Big Show being over 8 years younger than my dad, Big Show definitely lost more height due to being bigger and often falling harder. So as of today, my dad may still be at his peak height of 5ft 7.5 or at most half an inch shorter than his peak.

@Pierre you don’t seem to understand the concept of people having different shoulder and head levels.

I have a shoulder level clearly 2-3” higher than other guys at or near my height. I also only have a 9.5” head, smaller than other guys I know. It’s called genetic variation
@Julian=@Julian = like Canson you don't seem to understand this= if Big Show's shoulders are looking around same height as Shaq's shoulders on ring ,while out of ring Big Show's shoulders are dwarfed by Shaq's shoulders,this means Big Show has a big advantage of shoe on Shaq on ring,no matter the size of their heads or the size of their necks.
You’re the one who doesn’t understand and it reflects in your estimates as they are always egregiously low. Everyone calls you on them too. Last I checked you measure to the top of someone’s head. Us mentioning shoulders is to say that that’s possibly where height was loss. It doesn’t change the outcome that Shaq is only slightly taller than Big show. Not 3-4”. It’s less than 2

There’s no evidence of internal lifts for Big Show in the staredown with Shaq Click Here You can see where the edge of his foot is pressing against the side of the boot as well as the roundness of his heel at the back. With acromegaly, his feet are going to be very thick (just look at his hands) yet the shoe height (from the soles up) doesn’t look any larger than Shaq’s. He probably has up to a ¼” sole advantage over Shaq.
An elevator shoe with an internal lift Click Here looks obvious, especially when the top of the foot and heel can be seen, leaving aside the difficulty in trying to wrestle in them. Kane’s 2 inch heeled boots are probably about as large as a wrestler can go and still wrestle safely and assuming the wrestler is athletic enough to pull it off.

With acromegaly, his feet are going to be very thick (just look at his hands) yet the shoe height (from the soles up) doesn’t look any larger than Shaq’s. He probably has up to a ¼” sole advantage over Shaq.
An elevator shoe with an internal lift Click Here looks obvious, especially when the top of the foot and heel can be seen, leaving aside the difficulty in trying to wrestle in them. Kane’s 2 inch heeled boots are probably about as large as a wrestler can go and still wrestle safely and assuming the wrestler is athletic enough to pull it off.

@Pierre you don’t seem to understand the concept of people having different shoulder and head levels. You seem to live in a world where everyone has the exact same shoulder level down to the nanometre. That’s not how it works. I have a shoulder level clearly 2-3” higher than other guys at or near my height. I also only have a 9.5” head, smaller than other guys I know. It’s called genetic variation
@Julian=@Julian = like Canson you don't seem to understand this= if Big Show's shoulders are looking around same height as Shaq's shoulders on ring ,while out of ring Big Show's shoulders are dwarfed by Shaq's shoulders,this means Big Show has a big advantage of shoe on Shaq on ring,no matter the size of their heads or the size of their necks.

Given the amount of weight he’s lost, it will be interesting to see whether it sees him gain back a bit of height.

But you’re saying he is under 6’8 today let alone 6’9? He’s got poor posture. He’s minimum 6’9.5 today and can still look 6’10 at times

This is roughly the height difference between Big Show and Shaq in 2016 Click Here Both could stand taller but Big Show’s posture looks a little better.
He’s had numerous surgeries, including on his hip, but I think much of Big Show’s perceived height loss is due to his habit of leaning forward at the waist. Click Here Straightening his upper body here adds about an inch Click Here Akebono has really good posture for someone of his weight and height.
The hunching forward is what I tried to explain to Pierre. He looks like he lost height there in the neck as a result

Ridiculous theory?!Lol the pic go in direction to my theory of massive help.of course Big Show's left toes are more distant to the camera than his right toes=
first = Big Show stand a bit on his profile in the pic
second= his left foot beeing nearly perfectly vertical( because no advantageous shoe),his left toes are standing around same distance to the camera as his left ankle....
By your famous theory if Big Show has always around the same help with his shoes no matter if wrestler shoes or classic shoes you go explain to me why on ring his shoulders are just a bit lower than Shaq's shoulders and out of ring his shoulders are simply dwarfed by Shaq's shoulders....
Click Here Click Here = here on ring Big Show with wrestler shoes = both have their shoulders around same height,Shaq's shoulders just a bit higher than Big Show's shoulders
Now out of ring both guys certainly with similar shoes = Click Here Big Show's shoulders dwarfed by Shaq's shoulders.
Comparisons of heights with one guy in wrestler shoes and the other guy in sneakers will be lots of times advantageous for one of this guys...

@Roelc if you doubt Big Show's wresler shoes give him a big advantage,then eventually watch the recent pic of Kan on 16/Sept on Kane's page = Big show wearing only one wrestler shoe has to tiptoeing a lot on his left bare foot to try to place his ankle at same height as his right ankle .....Have you an idea about the gain of height of a giant guy who is tiptoeing on his giant foot? this is not a question of only 2 inches here....this shoes have very probably internal helps
----------------------
You mean this pic? Click Here
I've seen it and it doesn't really prove anything. It looks more like an optical illussion.
Big Show's left foot is placed further in the back and his right foot is not fully visible in the pic.
It could be that he's leaning in for the pic (as he's standing further behind). Taking off one shoe and placing that foot even a little bit behind the other foot will already cause you to fully stand on your tip-toe.
Besides with all the knee problems and surgeries Big Show had, it could also be that one leg is shorter than the other.
Your theory that Big Show is wrestling in 3 to 4-inch lifts is downright ridiculous. You clearly have never been into any form of athletics yourself if you believe anyone can wrestle in those type of lifts. It's hard to move around in those type of shoes, but running the ropes and juming off the top rope is downright impossible.
The "Big Show wears huge lifts" theory was debunked when he stood in the ring with Sumo-wrestler Akebono. There's footage of the two both in and out of ring-gear and Show doesn't magically appear to be 4-5 inches taller when he puts on his boots.
Here's Big Show in boots with Akebono in slippers: Click Here
Now both barefoot: Click Here
Using your theory Big Show should've appear a whole lot taller in his boots. Yet he doesn't!
And again there are plenty of good pics of Big Show's footwear. The soles on his boots are huge, but the shape of his boots make it very improbable that he's also wearing inside lifts on top of those huge soles.
Plenty of good shots of his boots in these pics
Click Here
Again if Big Show is wearing internal lifts, he must've slim feet. Which is odd for an acromegalic giant.

I completely agree with what @RoelC said below..i personally belive that show has lost a lot more height in past few years.. Which is the main reason for this huge difference now btw Shaq and show.
---------------
KhajaQadaruddin, the pics from Shaq & Show at Wrestlemania were from April 2016 and the ones from the ESPY awards are from July 2016. There was only a 3-month timeframe between those two meetings.
I think the reason why Show looked so short next to Shaq had more to do with the camera angle. Footage shot by a shoulder mounted camera have been prove time after time again to be unreliable for estimating heights.

@Pierre: a lot of people lose height in their necks or have different size necks. The shoulders do not solely or accurately determine height. So in his case, Show looked less than 2” shorter than Shaq. Even if we took into account their footwear, Show comes out minimum 6’10 with Shaq

Pierre those shots of Big Show & Shaq at the 2016 ESPY's & Wrestlemania have been thoroughly discussed over here back in 2016.
If you believe he went from this Click Here to that Click Here due to footwear advantage, you're basically saying Big Show had a 2-inch+ shoewear advantage over Shaq's sneakers (which aren't exactly flip flops either).
Big Show's footwear is clearly visible in the Wrestlemania shots. Where are those huge lifts you are talking about? Unless Big Show has very slim feet, there's not much room (if any) for internal lifts.
I doubt if Big Show's footwear gave him any advantage over Shaq's sneakers. And if they did, it's not gonna be more than 0.25 inch.

At the 2016 ESPYs, Big Show stood at roughly the same Red Carpet spot as several athletes and looked easily 6’10” Click Here which shows why the pics and video with Shaq from that same event (where Big Show looked arguably 6'8" at times assuming Shaq is a flat 7'0") are not reliable (leaving aside that they are not full body shots and the level of the ground, stances, etc. can’t be seen).

@Pierre: here is another picture with Shaq. I don’t think Shaq was 7’0.25. He wore orthotics in his shoes admittedly. I give him max 7’0” peak height but still here is Big Show in front of him. Show wasn’t even down to a flat 6’10” then. He was still 6’10” plus unless Shaq has lost height by then too. Shaq recently measured on TNT and was still around 7’0”. He claimed 6’11.75 and that’s the minimum I could see for him. I believe Show could still measure 6’10” with perfect posture or at worst only a hair under that mark
That’s about 3cm maybe 1.5” if all variables are factored in.

Canson I think you have to watch (or watch again) the first comment of Kan on 16/Sept/20 on Kane's page .This pics on ring are biased because Big Show wear wrestler shoes that probably give him a massive help .In the pic of Kan you can see how much Big Show wearing only one wrestler shoe has to tiptoeing with his big left bare foot to place his left ankle at same height as his right ankle.
Then finally the pic I posted Shaq /Big Show wearing suits (and so very probably similar heels this time) is showing a bit more the real difference of height between both guys even if this pic is biased with a low angle and give an advantage to Big Show (watch eventually the comment I posted about this ,on Kane 's page on 22/sept/2020 .
Shaq is in sneakers there but again, he admitted he wears an orthotic in his shoes as well. So even if you put the two into perspective (given Big Show’s footwear), I doubt the advantage would be enough to take Show under 6’10”. That’s not much over an inch that Shaq has on him in the ring in the video. Today, I can see something like what Christian 6’5 3/8 said 6’9.5” but I can’t see him being 6’8.75 let alone 6’7” range

That’s not much over an inch that Shaq has on him in the ring in the video. Today, I can see something like what Christian 6’5 3/8 said 6’9.5” but I can’t see him being 6’8.75 let alone 6’7” range

@Pierre: here is another picture with Shaq. I don’t think Shaq was 7’0.25. He wore orthotics in his shoes admittedly. I give him max 7’0” peak height but still here is Big Show in front of him. Show wasn’t even down to a flat 6’10” then. He was still 6’10” plus unless Shaq has lost height by then too. Shaq recently measured on TNT and was still around 7’0”. He claimed 6’11.75 and that’s the minimum I could see for him. I believe Show could still measure 6’10” with perfect posture or at worst only a hair under that mark
That’s about 3cm maybe 1.5” if all variables are factored in.

Canson I think you have to watch (or watch again) the first comment of Kan on 16/Sept/20 on Kane's page .This pics on ring are biased because Big Show wear wrestler shoes that probably give him a massive help .In the pic of Kan you can see how much Big Show wearing only one wrestler shoe has to tiptoeing with his big left bare foot to place his left ankle at same height as his right ankle.
Then finally the pic I posted Shaq /Big Show wearing suits (and so very probably similar heels this time) is showing a bit more the real difference of height between both guys even if this pic is biased with a low angle and give an advantage to Big Show (watch eventually the comment I posted about this ,on Kane 's page on 22/sept/2020 .

@Canson By considering angle of camera a bit low plus Lennox closer to the camera plus Charles Barkley in poor posture Lennox is never close to 6"5' or even 6"4' here.Maybe 6"3'...
I disagree respectfully. Lewis was minimum a peak 6’4.5 guy. I don’t rule out 6’4.75

7 foot Big show, 500 pounds around 2000. Edged Undertaker at least with four inches. Now he is inch and a half shorter.
