@Hyper: that may be his lunch. Maybe the listed is his low

The more I see of him, the more I think he’s like 6’5 5/8”. He always looks taller than 6’5” next to people Rob has met and next to measured athletes.

@Andrey
I agree, honestly. I think they are the same height. There are two pictures of them.
Owen forced his posture in one picture.
The other picture, Bo actually edged Owen out.
Andrey200 said on 19/Dec/22
Didn’t look shorter than Owen Benjamin. If anything I’d switch their listings.

Burnham: 6’5 5/8”
Holmes: 6’4 5/8”
Majestic Butterfly said on 14/Sep/22
no doubt a tall guy.
6’5 1/2 is accurate

The more I look at him the more I see him closer to 198 than 197.

@Hyper
well, even more impressive then! my best friend wasn't measured out of bed either so he'll be pleased to hear that! thanks.
Hyper said on 13/Aug/22
5foo7dude
He’s definitely more than that out of bed. I reckon he is at least 6’6.5” out of bed. He stacks up too well with MCW, Pete Holmes, Owen Benjamin, Nicholas Braun, and Greg Davies to be just 6’5.5” out of bed.
5foot7dude said on 11/Aug/22
hey this guys as tall as my best friend! 6 foot 5.5 for him flat out of bed.
Canson said on 25/Jul/22
@Rampage and Hyper: my guess would be if this is, in fact, his low, that he would wake up to 199 or so. Christian only loses 3/4” per day and even Junior who is slightly taller than Christian loses 3/4”-7/8” same with Insomniak who used to post here and was Junior’s size. My guess with Burnham is that his max loss would be 1”. Maybe he wakes up at 199 and dips to 196.5
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Jul/22
If he's a solid 197cm, he could even hit 200cm out of bed...
Hyper said on 24/Jul/22
@Rob
Do you think he could wake up to 6’6.5” in the morning or do you think that’s a stretch too?
Editor Rob
Yeah he's got a chance of that, some of these huge guys could shrink 1-1.5 inch range.

Imagine if The Rock or Dave Bautista claimed 6'5 or 6'6 respectively in front of him, while he only claims 6'5.

@Leighton
He's apparently 176lbs according to this site, but I'd say slightly bigger. I wouldn't be surprised if 190. I looked about the same build that he is right now when I was that weight range, as we're identical in height.

Probably as much as Robert Nairne (I think I spelled his name wrong). Bo is certainly not a bodybuilder.
Leighton Tang said on 22/May/22
How much do you think he weighs?
Canson said on 21/Apr/22
@Vincent: he looks similar to you. Maybe 6’4.5” when I see pics. Bo at lunchtime maybe 6’5 5/8” but afternoon I can buy 6’5.5”. 6’5.75 is a possible lunchtime listing for him though since it’s 1/8” over
Vincent Caleb said on 20/Apr/22
@Hyper
Best evidence I’ve seen for a 6’5.75” Bo is him with Pete. About an inch between them.
I actually saw Pete years ago at an airport no shoes on in TSA, and do believe he was similar height to me (I’m 195 cm).
Canson said on 20/Apr/22
@Hyper and Vince: I’d go with the listing but it may be his afternoon height which is how I roll. MCW is probably max a 6’4.5 guy if not 6’4 3/8 at a low
Hyper said on 20/Apr/22
@Vincent Caleb
The fact that a slouching Bo managed to beat out MCW (who did measured 6’4.75” without shoes and 6’5.75” with shoes (both early measurements for MCW)), suggests that Bo is at least this listing if not 6’5.75”
Also, Bo looked taller than a current James Cromwell, with 6’6.5” Nicholas Braun.
Vincent Caleb said on 20/Apr/22
6’5.75” is not ruled out for me.

Rob, maybe he needs an upgrade to 6ft 5.75? Maybe he claims 6ft 5 only because he doesn't people to think he's a giant or something. Really seems like he could pass for 6ft 6. And 6ft 5.75 would be the absolute lowest I'd argue. I feel like 6ft 5-5.5 would be a little too low for him.
Editor Rob
Certainly he would't be getting listed any shorter and still chance of that almost 6ft 6 range.

Why does Michael Carter Williams looks very close to Tyson Fury? Fury is taller but it’s not much difference.

Could 6’5.75” be arguable for Burnham?
i think that's a weird angle that make fury wasn't that tall, seriously, this guy can look just 6'6 (with MCW and Magic Johnson) and over 6'7 the other day, or going from weak 6'7 to over 6'8 (with Hafthor recently, he's shorter than him by 1 inch with a fraction shoes disadvantage but on one photo he edged him and his dad

It’s really strange. He’s really started to look taller than his listing at times. Surely, Bo is taller than someone like Wladimir Klitschko and Dan Snow.
Canson said on 18/Dec/21
@Hyper: easily in the morning. I think it’s safe to say he’s 6’6 or higher out of bed. How much higher is debatable. But not sure 6’5.75 at a low. But I am starting to see the strong argument for his listing as his afternoon height.
Robbe said on 18/Dec/21
Same guy with Bo, Josh Homme, and Ryan Hurst.
Click Here
Josh and Ryan are both listed at 6'4.5 by Rob. According to this comparison, Bo is easily like 2in taller than these guys. But these kind of comparisons aren't so accurate, due to their postures, and camera angles. But anyway, it's pretty safe to say Bo is tallest of them.

Comparing with Joe Manganiello and Kevin Smith really gives him 198. Burnham's posture is inconsistent so he understandably varies in perception between 195-198. With good sleep and standing straight I reckon full 198.12.
Hyper said on 6/Dec/21
Edit*
He really seems close to 6’5.75” the more we see of him.
Maybe 6’5 5/8” or similar to Kevin Durand? He certainly looks taller than his 6’5” flat claim. More on the lines of his 6’5”, 6’6” on a good day.
I would not upgrade him just yet. It’s best if you really saw Bo in person.

@Hyper: looking more maybe the weak half range but means he’s 6’5.5 at lunchtime. I would really say weak half is 1/4-3/8” but I’m thinking he’s a solid 3/8” if he’s under 6’5”. He appeared to have a disadvantage with Holmes so maybe it’s a bit less than an inch. Rob has Holmes listed too high

He looks a bit taller than just 6-5

Bo certainly isn't a menacing type guy, more laid back and likeable from what I've seen.
Canson said on 8/Jul/21
@Hyper: Bo is an interesting case. He’s taller than I initially thought. I wonder if he really did only measure 6’5 before when he said 6’5 flat in the quote above. I wonder if that was when he was younger and if he grew a fraction. I thought 6’5 a long time ago but I’d say easily 6’5 and change. Maybe he slouched when he was measured lol. He’s said before that 6’5/6’6 was too tall and you can start to pass for 6’5 1/2” at 6’5.25 in thr afternoon from an honest persons perspective. Put it all together and you have something different.
Hyper said on 6/Jul/21
@Rob
Agreed. Idris Elba claimed ‘six feet’ and it’s also a generalization. Blake Harrison has said the same thing.
Though to be frank, Bo’s claim of six foot is lowest I’ve ever seen! Clearly, he looks taller than Kobe Bryant and Tim Robbins does with Conan O’Brien. (I’m only talking about the recent gif of Bo and Conan, where Bo was wearing converse sneakers.) He even towered Thomas F. Wilson, who you have met!

@viper
I’m seriously surprised you said that. I know you mention Tim Robbins being at least 6’5”, but what made you think Bo could give a 6’5.75”-6’6” impression?
Not that I disagree but it surprised me.
The recent (somewhat old) clip with Conan surprised me. I’ve never seen a converse-sneaker man, tower Conan. Granted Bo is closer to the camera and the angle is tricky to pin-point. However, Bo is wearing converse sneakers and he still somehow gives off a much taller impression.
He wasn’t lying when he said he is taller than Conan.

I still keep my opinion from the start. Both Bo Burnham and Pete Holmes are taller than Conan and Pete Holmes and Bo Burnham should be similar in height. If there's any different, it shouldn't be more than 1-2cm. Pete get a 6'5 and Bo get this listing.
Hyper said on 16/May/21
@184guy2
I wouldn’t put Bo under this listing, to be honest. I know you disagree with me. However, Pete is more than clearly taller than Conan and Bo is clearly taller than Pete. Bo was also slouching a lot with Conan, yet the top of his head is well higher than Conan and he had less footwear.
It goes many ways. Overall, he does look 6’5.5”, at least.
Bo also holds his own with Greg Davies, who’s clearly taller than Rob Gronk and Stephen Merchant. Not to mention Greg is taller than Richard Osman, who most agree could be 6’7 1/4”.

Hyper seems to be a huge Bo fan. Pity there aren't any good pics where Bo is standing straight with somebody who's height is known. With MCV he is indeed slouching, and still appears 6'6.5.
Click Here
Bo's head is 10.5in there, and MCW's 9.5in. Bo has a big head, but i doubt it's quite that big, so he is closer to the camera, so he is favored there.
Also, comparisons with Gregg Davis/Vince Vaughn/Lebron James are pretty useless due to terrible angles. I would really like to see Bo standing tall with Vaughn/Gronk, with good angle. Here Gronk next to Vaughn, looks 2in difference to me.
Click Here
I still have hard time believeing Bo is only 0.5in shorter than Gronk, but you never know. Judging heights from pictures can be tricky as we all know. And like said, Bo slouches very often. But i think it's pretty safe to say he is not under 6'5 at lowest.
Hyper said on 7/May/21
And considering MCW was reportedly measured at 6’4.75” (early measurement) and Kobe measured at 6’4.75”, it’s not any guesswork.

Here's Vince Vaughn with Lebron James. (It's the only picture where Vaughn stands straight with Lebron.) --
Click Here
It's hard to argue as low as 6'4" range there.
Also, Owen is more relaxed with Vaughn. Owen is forcing his posture with Bo. (It's obvious, looking at the way Owen is tilting himself up.)
184guy2 said on 27/Apr/21
Lol Vince is like 2 foot behind Owen and far from the camera.
To be fair Vince can look 6'5ish in that pic if Owen is 6'6 and is odd because he has recently looked a strong 6'4 at most
Hyper said on 17/Apr/21
I think this listing is fine. He didn't look much different from Blake Griffin, with Pete Holmes.

Vincent Caleb said on 14/Apr/21
I have always said Gronk is around 6’6”, but I could see a little under before over considering he has measured 6’6”. Bo isn’t max 6’5.5” to me more like a solid 6’5.5”. I thought Braun would be about 6’6” and change or maybe Rob’s listing.
Canson said on 12/Apr/21
@Hyper: you are correct. He always has terrible posture. He has thicker shoes in this pic and still doesn’t give off nearly as tall an impression as other guys like Anthony Joshua or Kevin Durand who are only listed 1/4” taller. I guess taller is not always better as he does not like his height. To be fair, I wouldn’t want to be 6’5.5” either if he really is though. Honestly I would not want to be above my current height or preferably a 1/4 or CM less to where I can get 6’4 flat at lunchtime or at best afternoon height.

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 12/Apr/21
I did say Bo had some hidden height might be measure taller than lower. He doesn't look over 2" below Greg Davies.
Canson said on 11/Apr/21
I bet he dips under 1/2” at night or afternoon. Hence why he’s claimed 6’6 and 5. Maybe Christian’s height
Canson said on 10/Apr/21
Gronk got a morning measurement so not sure he’s as tall as Braun
Hyper said on 9/Apr/21
His posture is horrendous and generally he wears light footwear, even with Greg Davies.
184guy2 said on 8/Apr/21
Would love to see Gronk footwear with Conan
Canson said on 8/Apr/21
@Robbe: I think it’s his posture. Bo has horrendous posture. I wonder if he really just doesn’t like being tall. To be honest, I don’t even know if Gronk is a solid 6’6” being his 6’6.25 was a morning measurement but he may still make it at an afternoon height. He wouldn’t be any taller though and I could conceivably see 6’5.75 or 6’5 7/8”. Bo on the other hand is Max 6’5.5”. He could even be shorter than that
184guy2 said on 7/Apr/21
Also Rob can look close to Braun height , both probably 6'6 and change
Tall Sam said on 6/Apr/21
Burnham is holding rather inferior posture compared to Gronkowski, he could look rather taller standing well.

@Canson, do you really think Bo is only 0.5in shorter than Gronk?
Canson said on 5/Apr/21
@184guy: most think he’s taller than listed because of how he stood with guys like Benjamin or Cromwell etc. Bo if he’s 6’5.5” is just that imho. In reality, he could be something like what Christian is too.
Hyper said on 5/Apr/21
184guy2
Most of the video, he’s very shy in his posture. Even when he looked down, the back of his head is still higher than Conan’s top head.
184guy2 said on 5/Apr/21
Why would Bo use and plataform beside and guy taller ??? He isnt someone who gives much importance to Height , despite being very tall
184guy2 said on 5/Apr/21
@Chris
You are blind if you think that is 4cm , let alone 5cm. I suggest you to take a rule or tape and see what a difference of 4-5cm is . It's a visible amount . Put the video in 0.25x speed and go to the last frame where Bo posture is the best in the entire video . Even considering the 0.3in footwear disvantage , Bo doesnt look over 2" taller than conan. If so Conan would be looking at the tip.of Bo's nose . 6'4 and 6'5.5 are cool listings . 6'3.5 Conan putd Bo 100% at 6'5 flat
184guy2 said on 5/Apr/21
I love how ALL the users here are biased towards Bo and Critics to Conan listing.
I'm ok with Conan downgrade , as long we downgrade Jared Padalecki to 6'3.25 , Zachary Levi and
Chris Hemsworth to 6'2.5 , Nicholas Braun to 6'6 , Bo Burnham to 6'5 , The Rock ( 2004 ) to 6'2 and the listing goes on and on. Also Chuck to a mere 6'4
recapa said on 2/Apr/21
bo ,rick fox and metta are all guys who i think that would measure around the same all weak 6ft5.5 guys (196.5-197cm).

It will be interesting for him to meet the real Larry Bird though.

It wasn’t easy, but we got him to his listing!
Duhon said on 25/Mar/21
He's just been cast to play 6'9" Larry Bird in an upcoming TV series. Bo's very tall compared to most actors but I wonder if they will have him wear lifts or platforms?
Canson said on 24/Mar/21
@Hyper: yea you and I got him pushed to 6’5.25” at first. I mentioned how he came out with 6’6 on a good day and you showed the pics. He isn’t shorter than that and the more I see maybe 6’5.5” or just under it. At lunchtime he probably is 6’5.5 or even over by a touch.
@Junior: I’d say at least 3/8 I agree and he would easily have around 2” on Conan if he stood straight. See Howard Stern or Klitschko with Conan and he looks sub 6’4” with both. He inflated Klitschko too when he was on his show. Bo certainly isn’t any shorter than either guy

Not to mention posture disadvantage for Bo as well. Combined all that, yet Bo is still taller than Conan.
Canson said on 21/Mar/21
@Editor Rob: if this doesn’t constitute a downgrade to 6’3.5” for Conan, then I don’t know what else does. Footwear disadvantage and Bo is still taller. Conan is also shorter than a peak Neeson or Hasselhoff
recapa said on 20/Mar/21
196.5-197cm range for me.

All because Bo is 6'6. Nicholas Braun 6'7.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 10/Mar/21
Bo look at least 1.5" on Conan. Bo footwear look typical flat style like converse chucks 5/8 inch and Conan standard 1.1". Bo should deserved 6'6 listing because Conan stay 6'4.
Hyper said on 9/Mar/21
@Rob
Even then, Bo keeps dropping a lot of posture like ‘bloody blazes!’ He looks really uncomfortable being tall, back then. It’s like Idris Elba or Clive Russell.
Honestly, he did look taller than Conan even with the worst posture in existence.

Looking at the top of their heads, Bo and Anthony look close. I am surprise Bo wasn’t height-conscious with Greg Davies and that Bo has less footwear.

Burnham would definitely beat out Klitschko and possibly Rick Fox, since Rob has met AJ and Rick Fox and stated AJ did look taller with a footwear advantage.

Kane is currently 6’6” for sure, in person, without a doubt. He has looked taller than Undertaker, Dennis Rodman, and maybe Lebron James.
Based on these, I don’t have doubts that Burnham is easily over 6’5”.
Then again, @Vincent Caleb could provide more ground than myself, since he met Pete Holmes.
Vincent Caleb said on 19/Jan/21
@Chris Junior:
I actually agree. Bo had an inch on him, no less. I won’t go under 6’5.5” for Bo because I know Pete is definitely not under 6’4.5”.

Nothing changes a fact out there that Bo was strong 1" on Pete and Rob still think Pete is honest 6'5.
recapa said on 8/Jan/21
@Vincent and Canson ,good guesses from both of you .i have bo around that height range too 196.5-197cm too 198.5-199 out of bed.
Canson said on 2/Jan/21
@Vincent: yea I’d say he loses 3/4” like you me or Christian. Maybe a full 2cm is the most I could see. I have him around Christian’s height or maybe minimally but not noticeably taller. Maybe 198-199 range out of bed and 196-197 range in the afternoon
Vincent Caleb said on 1/Jan/21
This mark is fine for Bo, no need to change it. I don’t think Bo loses a full inch. Whether he is slightly above or below is debatable, but this is good. I would actually say that a good range would be:
6’5 3/8 as a lowest argument
6’5 3/4 as a highest argument
6’6” is too high
Canson said on 29/Dec/20
@Hyper and Editor Rob: I just can’t see him as 6’6” Or near 6’6”. But yes I do see a very strong case for 6’5.25-.5 range. Maybe he’s 196.5-196.7 range but just can’t see him as a weak 6’6. That’s where I have someone like Anthony Joshua, Ralf Moeller, etc. and I definitely get a taller impression with guys like Spencer Wilding Bruce Spence or Even Paul Pierce who can look a weak 6’6 with Carmelo Anthony. But My def of weak 6’6 is someone who’s close to 6’6 for the entire day (6’5.5-.75 range) and then measures 6’6 in the first hour of the morning. That would out his aggregate height at maybe 197 flat or higher in the afternoon and make him around 199 out of bed which is hard to see for him. At that stage we’re talking about a guy who essentially measures 6’6 flat into the 2nd hour Whereas I consider someone Christian’s size to be a strong 6’5”. That’s kind of the height I have Bo at now a days would be maybe within a mm or two of Christian. I think Bo can give off a taller impression due to his lanky build but at the same time I see the argument for him being taller than he claims esp with his poor posture at times. Not to mention this is a guy who has admitted to wishing he were shorter than he is.
recapa said on 28/Dec/20
yeah,the listing works just fine but i wouldnt go above it personallily.
Hyper said on 28/Dec/20
Rob, from all you’ve seen, what would be the lowest and highest you would argue for Bo?
Editor Rob
at the moment I think probably I would say the mark he's at might be the low, almost 6ft 6 a possible highest
Canson said on 27/Dec/20
@Junior and Recapa: it could be 7/8” between them too. Pete’s fright is a wild card. He may be 6’4 3/8 or 6’4.5”. I’ll go with the latter. As for Bo, 6’5 3/8 could be possible. 6’5.5 would then be a lunchtime
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 25/Dec/20
@recapa
My worst ever low was always 197.2-.3cm nothing change a bit. If you think he drop a fraction below 197cm then Pete Holmes isn't a single mm over 194cm or even worst at 6'4 1/4 (193.7) because Bo look to have a very strong 1" on Pete.
Hyper said on 25/Dec/20
@recapa there are times where Bo has looked 6’6” with Pete Holmes and Thomas F. Wilson and Robbie Amell. (The second and third that met Rob in person.) Though Bo has looked less but he still looked over 6’5” for sure.
The listing is perfect, if we’re going by middle ground. It would be nice if Rob could one day meet the guy, though he said it’s unlikely.
Jkiller said on 24/Dec/20
6'5.25 (196cm) is correct.

@Junior,i dunno man i can totaly see the listing but at the same time i dunno if he is your height .you mentioned that you never fall under 197cm . bo i think he falls under it sometimes like 196.5cm or something byt hey anything can be possible.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 18/Dec/20
Bo is at least my height twin. 6'5 5/8 hardly think about less than more. Greg Davies is 6'7 3/4 low look at most 2" on Bo.

Someone like Andrew Garfield’s Height. 6’5.5” is just too much.
Bo would be a perfect Joker though. Joker is supposedly 6’5” in the comics, he’s lanky, and he jokes. Bo has though qualities except that Bo is taller than the Joker and he has a dark sense of humor.

Another thing is Nicholas is taller than a current James Cromwell, so he definitely could measure 6’6.5” at a low.

@Hyper: I have to also wonder if Braun measures that at a low. He was listed 6’6 and he was compared to Conan who is also overlisted by half inch and given an extra half himself. One thing is for sure. Bo isn’t more than 5.5 and could be in the 5.25-.5 range still

Vincent Caleb said on 29/Oct/20
@Canson: I actually think this listing is perfect 6-6.25 out of bed, 6-5 5/8 lunch, 6-5.5 afternoon. He gives off a slightly taller impression than a peak Hogan.

@Canson
One thing is certain. Bo’s definitely over 6’5”.

@Junior
I can see 6'5 5/8" for Bo at times. Aren't you that height at a low?
Canson said on 27/Oct/20
@Junior: I’d go with a fraction under before a fraction over esp being he claimed 6’5” numerous times. I’d say maybe 6’5.25-.5 range afternoon height before 6’5.5-.75
Vincent Caleb said on 27/Oct/20
@Chris Junior Hernandez:
I would also say he has a higher chance of being closer to 6-6 than 6-5. He can look a lot taller than the listing at times, but the listing is still pretty good even if it is on the low side.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 27/Oct/20
Fraction over 197cm isn't impossible for Bo indicate a low. I still strongly sees him under listed. 6'5 3/4 wasn't a problem. Greg Davies is no way over 2" on Bo. I'm tire of bringing up 5'10 1/2 Josh Hamilton case standing next to Bo, the 19cm wasn't a lie or pushing. Josh is probably close to 5'10 1/4 a low i can see him a strong 5'10 and Bo is def higher chance to be 6'5 3/4.

@185vietnamese
I know he will be shorter than Blake Griffin. However, comparing them with Pete Holmes, Bo doesn’t look much shorter than Griffin. Blake is standing on higher ground and possibly has bigger shoes.
Bo is further away from the camera and Pete is likely standing on higher ground, given that the largo theaters are structured like that in all of these pictures.
Hyper said on 9/Oct/20
185vietnamese
I don’t know about 6’4”. Bo’s clearly taller than Michael Carter Williams, who measured 6’4.75” without shoes and 6’5.75” with shoes. Granted it a morning measurement, but that’s more than just 6’4”.
185vietnamese said on 8/Oct/20
@Hyper
Bo will be obvious shorter than Blake Griffin since he's already look noticale an inch shorter than Nicholas Braun. Offc Bo is very tall at 6'5 1/2. Even if he's just 6'4, it's still in a very tall height, just look at Alexander Skargard, he's obviously very tall and anyone said he's very tall, they're not exaggerated at all.

What do you think of this clip around 18:58 --
Click Here
That's him with Robbie Amell. There are other clips, but they have one of them slouching. I know Bo has a hat on, but the height difference is way visible.
Editor Rob
Angle could help him look 6ft 6 range for a moment...I mean Amell I doubt falls under 5ft 11 much at all, so that's a man over 6ft 5 with Robbie.
Hyper said on 30/Sep/20
Another thing too is MCW did measure 6’4.75” without shoes and 6’5.75” with shoes, even if both aren’t low measurements. The fact that Bo (even while slouching), looks comfortably taller than MCW, does suggest that 6’5” is a bit too low.
Hyper said on 30/Sep/20
@Rob
Do you sometimes see fans (mainly fangirls) say to their idol that 'they're tall, like 6'0"+' but in reality, they're not that tall? (Example: One Direction.)
Bo is kinda the opposite. I see why his fans say he's tall and they're not exaggerating that he's tall.
Editor Rob
Sometimes they simply might not have been that aware of how tall somebody was, so it can catch a fan out (taller or shorter).
Or even in some cases like Bo, if he said 6ft 5 a few times in the past then they see him looking taller than that, it might prompt that kind of 'wow so tall' reply.
But people can be defensive and as big fans of certain celebs, won't hear a bad word or 'downgrade' given to them.

@FriedChicken
I seriously doubt he falls to 6'5" flat, even at night.
In the clip, MCW looked similar to Bryant, but Kobe would just edge him out. Bo looks more comfortably taller than MCW than Kobe does. (I'm going by the clip of MCW and Kobe. The pictures can be deceiving. Bo and MCW only had one picture together and Bo does look comfortably taller, seeing how his left eyebrow is reaching the headline of MCW.)
Also, Bo did look taller than an old James Cromwell, with Nicholas Braun. (For reference an Old James Cromwell is well taller than Tim Robbin.)
Also, a slouching Bo towered Thomas F. Wilson, as a 6'5.5" guy should. Rob has also met Thomas F. Wilson too and confirmed Wilson is no less than 6'2".

Sorry to ask! I didn’t want the upgrades to be based on ‘one’ picture or source , by bias or anything!

the more you can see of celebs, sometimes the more you agree with your estimate, but other times you think - it could be a bit low or high.
Dream said on 3/Sep/20
Rob, we discussed this before, but I wanted to make sure the upgrade isn’t a pretense, from falsely viewing the pictures.
The initial upgrade from 6’5” to 6’5 1/4” was based on the comparison with him and Kobe Bryant. Then, I think it was with Bo and James Cromwell was when 6’5 1/2” seemed more possible. Bo was also the first 6’5 1/8” guy before the comparison with Kobe Bryant.

Didn't see the upgrade to 6ft5 1/2. Seems reasonable.
Rob, if Bo stood next to a 6ft 1/2 person. Would their head be more likely above or below Bo's eye level?
Editor Rob
their hair might be just over his eyes

Any thoughts on this?

Here, we can see their legs and feet. They’re both slouching too.
Editor Rob
he could have a solid 9-9.5 inches on Jordan, given Bo's head is likely at least 2cm longer than an average head.
Dream said on 9/Jul/20
@Rob
Yeah. Even with that picture with Michael Carter Williams and comparison with Kobe Bryant, he still slouches!
At the same time, I think it's a refresher. it's kinda a good indicator that he's over 6'5" and he doesn't have to brag too much about it. He usually wears light footwear, unlike someone like Wladimir Klitschko.
I recall in an interview, where Bo claimed 6'6" (one of them, Canson linked), he did say back then, he had terrible posture (The footage with Greg Davies is certainly solid proof of such). Recently, Bo said he started working on his posture. (The recent picture of him and Pete Holmes, did show a significant difference.)

@Rob
it's funny because Bo didn't look height conscious, next to Greg Davies. Compared to Armie Hammer, who stood a bolt with Stephen Merchant (Merchant looked significantly shorter than Greg Davies, in this picture --

Editor Rob
A lot of the time Bo wouldn't pose tall...he'd be a tricky guy to get a decent photo with!

How similar do you think Bo Burnham and Anthony Joshua look, with Greg Davies?

Any thoughts on how they compare?
Editor Rob
It's a shame the footage didn't quite reveal the difference there may be, as both weren't standing up fully
Canson said on 24/Jun/20
@Dream: I think this preseason there were inconsistencies with both time and accuracy. Lebron at 6’8.5” for crying out loud. But then Anthony Davis at 6’9.75” he looked that at a low. I feel that he was 6’8.75 the first time as he acknowledged that Durant was taller then so maybe it was a morning height 6’9.25 when he was drafted. Then Dwight Howard obviously looks a morning height as he looks around 6’9” or a hair over

I haven’t met Bo, but I can make some bizarre comparisons with him and a few people.
Bo and Owen Benjamin looked identical, with Bo slouching and Owen forcing his posture up. —
Click Here
Owen is slouching more with Vince Vaughn and he’s more visibly taller than Vince Vaughn. —
Click Here
Here’s Vince Vaughn and Kane —
Click Here
Here’s Lebron James with Vince Vaughn. —

Bo looks at least an inch taller than Vince Vaughn, with Owen Benjamin. Owen (with camera advantage) looks a little taller than Kane and Lebron James, with Vince Vaughn. Kane is a lot bigger in person, than he looks in pictures. Lebron James is a big guy too.
I definitely agree with this listing for sure.

@Canson
So far, the NBA has been inconsistent, with afternoon/night Heights. It’s probably that way, ever since.
Dream said on 23/May/20
Rob, do you think he could potentially edge out Rory Mccann, by a few mm's?
Editor Rob
There is a chance, but you might need to measure those guys to find out who would be taller by mm's.
Canson said on 21/May/20
@Junior: I agree with that assessment
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 20/May/20
Rory Mccann had no chance to be looking over 6'5 next to Bo. I still think Bo can measure 6'6 at least in the morning not accounted out of bed and for sure again he will be 2" edging out Conan O'brien for sure.
Dream said on 19/May/20
I'd expect Bo to look at least an inch taller than Ryan McPartlin, based on how he stacks up with MCW and Kobe Bryant.
Matt6'5 said on 13/May/20
Rob,
Would you put a true "big inch" between Bo and Ryan McPartlin?
Editor Rob
You might expect around that difference.
Dream said on 14/Apr/20
@Rob
I feel his large head might be similar in size to Rory Mccann. You have guys like Ralf Moeller and Wladimir Klitschko, who have broad proportions. Ralf is more hulking. Wladimir is not too different from Ralf, but Ralf is bigger. Rory has a heavy build.
With someone like Bo, he's lanky, slim, and narrow, for someone his size. His head size doesn't make him look tall, proportion wise.
I would also say that Bo has a long neck too, which adds to his extremely tall stature.
Editor Rob
Well it is likely over 10 inches to chin
Dream said on 12/Apr/20
Rob, would you say, this guy has the oddest proportions for a 6’5”+ guy, or would you say he still has the proportions of being extremely tall?
Editor Rob
His head size can effect his proportions a bit, but his body frame might counter that effect a little bit.
I'm sure many who seen photos/videos of him and then met him - like he says - are a bit surprised how tall he looked up close.
Dream said on 29/Mar/20
@Canson huh! That’s very interesting! I’ll have to check it out myself.
@Junior actually, I also think you’re right about Bo having at least 3 cms on MCW. Even while slouching, Bo’s eyebrows are near MCW’s headline, indicating, it’s at least a solid inch on MCW.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 23/Mar/20
@Dream I would have rule out on metric 194.5cm for MCW a full inch lower than Bo or max 3cm. MCW don't look as low 6'4 1/4 as some says. Jimmy Butler wasn't standing straight and looks a little behind MCW. I did go with a worst 6'5 1/4 for Jimmy not sure if he is 6'5 3/4.
Canson said on 23/Mar/20
@Dream: 1/4” may be fair but almost all pre draft listings I’ve seen line up to 1/2” inch taller than an afternoon measurement. So if we use lunchtime as the standard MCW may be 6’4 3/8”. I know this year he has a 6’5 listing in the NBA. Being they measured in the AM he would’ve likely been listed 6’6 like he was previously had he measured 6’5.25 or so in the AM. I notice most players like Jaylen Brown got a 6’6 listing from a 6’5.25 pre draft and same with Derozan. Both prob got 6’5.5 this year which was a small stretch
Dream said on 20/Mar/20
@Canson
Truthfully, I don't think MCW is that overlisted. I looked at this interesting picture with 6'5" range Jimmy Butler.
Click Here
Their headlines are even, while Bo's low head level is higher than MCW's headline. I think if MCW is overlisted, it's no more than 1/4 of an inch. Otherwise, I think it works. At the same time, I think Bo's listing is more than legitimate. Easily taller than most youtubers who claim 6'5".
Canson said on 18/Mar/20
@Dream: I think it’s safe to say MCW is overlisted if we’re using lunch or afternoon heights
Dream said on 17/Mar/20
@184guy2
Michael Carter has a page here of 6’4.75”.
Truthfully, I don’t think camera advantages aren’t that drastic, since they’re side by side.
I think Bo looks minimum 6’5.5” with MCW and in comparison, taller than Kobe Bryant, especially when Bo is slouching.
Canson said on 17/Mar/20
6’5 for MCW is high. He was 6’4.75 early morning so prob more 6’4.25 or best case 6’4 3/8
184guy2 said on 16/Mar/20
@Dream
Bo is closer to the camera and we don't know the footwear . Assuming MCW 6'5 , Bo looks near 6'6 but we don't have enough to say he is
