Frankie Dettori's Height
5ft 3 (160 cm)
Italian Jockey. He said in 2002 (in the Mirror newspaper) regarding his weight and height: "Usually when I race I'm 8 stone 7lb. I'm 5ft 4in, so I'm a stone below my normal body weight throughout the season."

As mentioned in my previous post really does look closer to his claim than 5'3
With Barry Mcguigan listed 5'5.5 on the site.

I don't see a full 4 inches between him and wes. I think Wes is likely 5ft 6.5

Still don't think he is shorter than 5'3 at anytime of the day.

Well, I'm leaning more on 5'3-5'3.5" than 5'2.5-5'3" now anyway as I think Tricia Penrose is an easy 5'4" and can look taller than that at times.

Click HereHeight baffles me. Pause at 21:07 and Dettori is taller than 5'4" Trish. She's barefoot, he's in hiking boots. He actually looks 5'5" in the boots as she clearly looks at least 5'4" herself.
Which brings me back to my original comment on why a famous Jockey would claim 5'4 if he is only 5'3.......maybe he's 5'3.5 and rounds up.........or 5'4 fresh out of bed.

Is the Bronx famous for its zoo or something? I bet its got a big G of its own, a giraffe, maybe the baby giraffe is 5 ft 8, the adult ones are darn lanky!

Weird isn't it. Mangel is what 6'-6'0.5" range? He looks 5'8 tops in comparison I swear seeing him on CBB he often looks 5'8" tops next to Razor and some of the girls. He seems to look that low too often for it to be a coincidence. But he can seem around 5'9" on other occasions. One thing for sure is that he's not 5'10, or even close which I think brings up Jesse Spencer who played Billy Kennedy, I think Billy just edged out Toadie maybe he is more 5'9.5". Watching Neighbours they both seemed 5'10"-5'11 range but Jesse can look a bit smaller than 5'10" too on his US TV series from what I've seen.

Nah he is 5'9 ish I think, at 21:48 she's about 2 inches shorter in big heels. All I can say is he slouches terribly can can often look much shorter but when he's stood up straight he's around 5'9"!

Editor Rob here's an interesting one:
Joe Mangel and Toadfish.
G with Joe Mangel (no, not the Bronx G, my own G):
G with Joe Mangel.
now lil G is 5ft 5.5 - 5ft 5.75 range and had a 1.75 boot that day in edinburgh...
maybe there is a chance toadie is smaller!

Maybe they're the same height when she's in heels, when if she's 5'4" how can she reach 5'10" which Toadie should be in shoes?

Pause at 18:29, Tricia Penrose is taller than Toadie in heels even if he wasn't leaning she would be, I'm confused, surely he can't be more 5 ft 6-7?

I know you won't watch CBB Rob, but pause at 14:56 Click Here
Are you sure Toadfish is really 5'9"? Strangely he doesn't seem much taller than Frankie. OK, he's not standing fully straight but look at his proportions, oddly looks much shorter. Rylan on the other hand looks every bit of 6'4".

Wayne Rooney is listed at 5 ft 10 and Ashley Cole at 5'9.5" though Parker, listing means nothing... In reality Rooney is 5'9" flat and Ashley Cole barely over 5 ft 7. You wouldn't get Rob to watch a full episode of Big Brother if the G man reversed his height with Rob and said "look you're 5'6.75", I'm the one who is 5 ft 8!". Hehe. Agreed its awful television, this series in particular has been diabolical. At least last year Denise Welch going psycho on Michael Madsen was something.. When did you lower Heidi Montag's height Rob? I agree on a flat 5'2 BTW but she can seem taller.

Must admit I've only ever seen Denis Wise listed at 5'6. Not that that means he is,most sites 'piggy back' from other sites.

Irrespective I agree 5'3 looks a good estimate. I notice Rob has dropped Heidi Montag to 5'2.......he must have been watchin CBB and seen Frankie and her next to each other.

Denis Wise isn't 5'6" though I don't think, I think he was listed at 166cm in an old sticker album I had. More 5'5" and change. Well Frankie's not as low as 5'2 I don'tthink, he's got 2-3 inches on Lacie Banghard, yes that's her real name LOL. She claims 5'1" for her modelling I suspect she's nearer a flat 5'0. Frankie yeah he's close to 5'3", 5'2.5"-5'3" is a good guess I reckon.

Ecclestone is nearer the camera though. I think Frankie is a bit taller, but I don't think he's over 5 ft 3 Parker. What do you think he really is?
Well now I've started looking, I am coming round to your estimate. With 5'6 Denis Wise

As I thought Frankie edges him out I think but there's not much in it. I stick by my 5'2.5"-5'3" guess. Although a man like Ecclestone could have something sinister in his shoes...

Trust me, he aint 5 ft 4!
Not disputing your estimate Arch - Yours are always pretty close to mine. I never really looked at Frankie, just expressing suprise that a famous jockey who are typically 5'1-5'4 range would claim higher than he is.
I saw a programme on Sky a few months back and Frankie was talking to Bernie Ecclestone who was 1 or 2 inches shorter than Frankie - so a 5'3 Frankie would make Bernie's usual 5'3 listing somewhat suspect to. What do u think?

Why would a 5'2/5'3 guy claim 5'4?
---------------------------------------------------
The same reason all men who claim 1-2" more then there height. Its human nature. Even men 6f7 will say they are 6f8-6f9.

That's a bit unfair SAK, Rylan is a strong 6'4" guy who wears heeled shoes with high hair! He makes a 6 ft guy seem short.

I've always seen 5'4 or 5'5 listed for Frankie.....never lower than 5'4. He's always claimed 5'4. Why would a 5'2/5'3 guy claim 5'4?
Because its extremely short for a guy and 5'4" for him is sort of like the jockey's version of 5'6"-5'7" guys like G claiming 5'8". He wouldn't even reach 5 ft 5 in shoes Parker!! 5 ft 7 would be like G being listed at 6 ft! Trust me, he aint 5 ft 4!

Considering her age QEII might have been 5'3.5" possibly 5'4" peak, 5'1.5" now would be a good guess. I've requested her and others on the request page anyway..

Not meaning to sound rude, but he does look like a dwarf when standing next to 6f4 Rylan. Knew he wasn't 5f4, 5f3 is on point.

Yes she did look as low as 5'1" range next to Kate Middleton recently I thought. 5'1"-5'2" seems about right barefoot, nowhere near 5'4" now anyway, and I doubt she was quite it at peak, maybe 5'3" and change.

With Her Majesty. I think she has normal heels on. She might have been 5 ft 4 peak but 5 ft 2 might be nearer what she is today. Any estimates for QEII Rob? I think somewhere around 5'2".

Editor Rob 5ft 1-2 range possibly, she was supposed to be almost 5ft 4 at peak, a couple of inches shorter nowadays naturally.

Was going to request this today, good call! 5'3" is certainly a more reasonable estimate, could be 5'2.5". I thought he seemed shorter than Heidi Montag though, was she in boots?? I didn't think he was that short, I don't think he looks quite as low as 5'2" or under, but 5'2.5"-5'3" I think is about right. He's not 5'4" though!!
