Well, of course I'm talking about a "neutral" suggestion (with no history, cache or whatever else I know can influence it).
As for the footballer, I actually found an old sticker where he was also listed as low as 180, but if you see him with Del Piero (on the right)

Click Here or Gascoigne
Click Here I'm sure you will agree that 185 makes much more sense!
Andrea said on 11/Sep/23
Apparently it's not anymore, but did you know that for a good while if you typed celebheights on Google, the first suggestion was gabriel garko, Rob? I know it's based on location too and more than likely only in Italy, but still I didn't expect his page to be so searched, not even here?!
Anyway, here he is with a footballer who gets listed and does look 185:

The google suggestions are indeed sometimes tailored to your region or the type of searches you've conducted. Possibly a little looser posture thatn the footballer, and if he were 185, I could believe 190cm range.

Rob, is 6ft2¾ arguable?
Proportionally, does look tall enough to pass for 6ft3. His claim is in shoes no doubt but it's not hard to imagine him measuring near 192cm first thing. Seems taller than 6ft2 flat guys though
Andrea said on 11/Nov/18
I really wouldn't know about Guè, Luca. Speaking in inches, maybe somewhere in 6'2 range is possible, but I'm not sure at all... I'd say Garko gives me a taller impression.
As for Staffelli, I know he claims 190 (and I'm sure he even claimed 192 once), though it is possible he's not over 189 and maybe even 188. Don't know about any less than that, but I see where you're coming from as he can certainly look no more than that at times.
Btw, I live in Northern Italy, near Milan, to give you a rough idea. And no, I've never met any particularly famous person so far...
Andrea said on 7/Nov/18
I see, Luca. Don't worry. As I said, it would very interesting and useful if you ever managed to meet him and take a picture with him, especially if you yourself are a big 189 guy...
As for Guè, I haven't seen that much of him, so I'm not sure, though I doubt he's as tall as his 190 claim...
Andrea said on 2/Nov/18
Luca, I remember you saying that, but while I wouldn't completely rule it out, I'd be quite surprised if he was as low as 188 as he always gave me a taller impression than that. That being said, it would certainly be interesting if you ever managed to take a (good) picture with him...
Batistataker said on 28/May/18
I guess him at 189cm w/o shoes and 192.47cm(6'4) in shoes, he can list that really easily, his height is flawless though, type of guy who makes me minus height to say I'm him, his so perfect as a man doll or action figure.
Angelo Dt said on 11/May/18
At Sanremo Festival he claimed 192cm, maybe with shoes but I think he's a strong 190
Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 1/May/18
More like 192 with shoes around morning time.
Andrea said on 30/Apr/18
It is certainly hard to buy his 192 claim when you see him next to this guy who I'm sure has claimed to be 192 too at one point:

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 29/Apr/18
187cm is definitely too low. Maybe 190cm is a morning measurement but I certainly cannot see this guy under 6ft2. He has to be over it, the question is by how much. Really this is a suitable mark. In shoes he’d be more than likely hit 192cm
Travwolf said on 29/Apr/18
@Morisa he def alot taller than 187cm
berta said on 29/Apr/18
by just looking at photos of him he seems to be max 189. can look 187-189 range. 190 isnt impossible but chanses are probably bigger that he is 188 than 190.
Andrea said on 28/Apr/18
Yeah, I can see that. What about removing the model description, "updating" his credits, etc.?
Morisa (or shatakaa), what are those photos supposed to prove? How can you tell how tall someone is from photos like those? You have to compare him to people whose height you're more or less sure about to get a good idea of his possible range. From what I've seen, I would certainly rule out something like 187...
otara said on 27/Apr/18
rob maybe peak height was 1.90.5 ?
Editor Rob
I'd be surprised if Garko has lost any height yet, he's a fit 45 year old man.
Myself said on 26/Apr/18
Man...What is the point in claiming 192 if it's easily claimed by all 190 men...and even sub 190 ones...
I thought in Italy people were more honest about height, when there is no imperial system...
Gotta claim 195 cm then!
jk...
pixua said on 26/Apr/18
No one knows exactly his height
shatakaa said on 26/Apr/18

Click Here what do you think is he excetly 1.90?

I don't think Garko has a frame (body shape including head size) that makes him seem a quite tall guy, but when he's with other people he suddenly seems taller than 187cm range.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Apr/18
Rob, is 190cm maybe more suitable?
Seems like a fairly legit measurement. 192cm barefoot is pushing it though. At that height he'd be nearer 6ft5 in shoes and he just doesn't give that looming appearance. More upper tall range. Taller than most people he's pictured with but not all...
Editor Rob
He can look over 6ft 2, 189 is what I thought, but 190 isn't exactly impossible.
Andrea said on 23/Apr/18
Wow, Rob! I would have never thought you would have added a "celebrity" like him!!! Is he really that famous out there? Don't misunderstand me, I'm glad you added him as he's one of the reasons why I started to be curious about celebrities' heights and I've always wondered how tall he "really" is, but I've never requested him because I was quite sure you would have considered him "not worth an add"...
He has claimed to be 190 more than once, but also 191 and a cheeky "1 meter and 92 without shoes" here:
Click Here
From all I've seen of him, I think that anywhere between 189 and 190 is possible for him, so 6'2.5 doesn't seem a bad listing, although that's probably the lowest I'd argue...
P.S. I don't think he'd like to be called a model and I'm quite sure he remarked the fact that he's never been a model in the past in more than one interview. On the other hand, I'm sure he'd appreciate to be called an actor, although I think his modeling skills would probably be superior than his acting skills :P
Editor Rob
Well he was asked a couple of times, I think he can look over 6ft 2, but his 192cm claim seems more likely his shoe claim, rather than without shoes.
