How tall is John Hartson

I wouldn't have thought he was much bigger than that figure really.

He claimed that in more recent years, but back in 1996 he gave himself 6ft 2

Both have claimed 6ft 2...I think they were pretty close in person, but maybe Ruddock has shrunk a fraction and dips under 6ft 2 today.

Tough to call that, I think they'll measure pretty close, both up close seem over 6ft 1 flat but not as tall as 6ft 2 guys.

Well in person John is taller than how Jack looked when in late 70's...of course Jack had lost height by then.

You can see Jack at 67 with Nial Quinn...I don't know why Jack was called 6ft 5 in a paper.

On the pitch always looked about 6ft 1 range, but in person a big 6ft 1 range, but then I remember Gatiss looking a big 6ft 1 range too (albeit I feel his shoe advantage helped him).
I would not be surprised with john measuring taller under a stadiometer, though of course the difference may well not be a full half inch.

He actually had said do I want to do a 'hammers' fist pose like a couple of guys in front of me had done, but I didn't think it was great for height the way he was standing for it - as a fan I'd have done that fist pose, but of course I said to do a back to back, which I think was a good photo of him.

I now do mugshot height comparison's in short 25-35 second clips. I did do One for John.

I eventually planned to do them with the mugshot lines behind myself/actor, since I tested it 2 years ago on here with a couple of examples.

But I didn't think it would work well on the site because I would have to upload a version with background removed to be able to make a smooth transition from the photo to the photo+mugshot lines behind.

I always want the original photo ops on celebheights.com to be shown as they were taken.

I'd have said average or slightly above for his height range, though he is raising his eyes a fraction in that shot.

On the pitch he never really seemed that tall a guy, maybe due to his frame and I did think before seeing him that he'd be about 6ft 1...but you know, when he stands tall up close, I felt he can clear 6ft 1 flat.
