I knew he said "more or less", but missed that he did say "less"...

@Arch Stanton
After saying "more or less" when Rick Beato guesses him at 6'1, he says "less" and then laughs, I think to make it clear that guess is wrong (Rick doesn't catch on though) here's the exact timestamp:

Can anyone link an exact timestamp of a video where Justin claimed 5'11?

Funny Rampage! I could have believed 6 ft 3 for Copeland. For some reason I never thought of Sting as a tall guy, much like Brad Pitt or David Beckham. The thing is his guitarist Dominic Miller was there at Rick's interview and Miller is a genuinely tall guy, I would have thought about 6 ft 2, if not no less than 6'1. Rick probably thinks Dominic is 6 ft 4! In fairness Justin's brother Dan and Frankie the bassist are tall and would look quite a bit taller than the Rolling Stones.

Arch, in my naive younger years I used to think Sting was 6ft2 and Copeland was 6ft4!
Arch Stanton said on 16/Feb/23
There was an amusing conversation between Justin and music Youtuber Rick Beato on Youtube about height, it's from around 1 hr 15 into
Click Here Rick thought Justin was about 6 ft 1, Justin you could tell was thinking "wow that's generous" but didn't deny it and said "more or less" and laughed Rick and Justin describe Billy Corgan as "enormous" and they both guessed 6 ft 4. Rick also seems to be under the illusion at :1:16:50 that weak 5 ft 11 Sting is a big guy and seems to think he's 6 ft 1!! His wife "gasped" when she first saw Sting because he looks like a movie star. Perhaps Sting had on boots and his low body fat fooled him into thinking he was a few inches taller. Justin said The Darkness towered above the Rolling Stones as they were all diminuitive!! Funny that he thinks 5 ft 10 Mick short when he's only like an inch taller! Rick also thinks Lennon and McCartney were 5 ft 11- 6 ft. Clueless!

See the beginning Rob next to Dave Grohl, he's notcieably shorter...

Might be worth adding Rob that "in 2022 he claimed he typically weighs 75kg (165 pounds)", he said it a few weeks back on his Youtube channel.
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 31/Jan/22
I have a film called 'The Darkness', starring Kevin Bacon, and it's well worth seeing!
Not that it has anything to do with Justin, but it's an excuse to write on his page and give him a comment for the 2020s.
5ft11.5. 😁👌🎶
Arch Stanton said on 2/Jun/17
Rob don't you think the Frankie can look a big 6'3 range guy there
Click Here ? Dan oddly only looks 6 ft there though.
Editor Rob
he can seem close to 6ft 3...that's if Justin's height is ok, I haven't even thought of him for years, looking at photos he never seems to be able to stand still!
Arch Stanton said on 2/Jun/17
Rob can you add a photo? An old one from 2004 period not now, he looks like Marlon from Emmerdale now and gone all geek chic LOL. Frankie Poulain from the Darkness is surprisingly tall, I'd thought of him as shorter for some reason but seeing the Darkness that guy is even taller than Dan Hawkins who is supposed to be around 6'2 himself. Poulain can look close to 6'3 I think even exclusing the hair
Click Here Dan does look near what he claims I think.
dc said on 7/Feb/17
I met him once and he was the same height if not a tiny bit shorter than me, I am 183 so he is 182-183 I would say
Arch Stanton said on 6/Mar/15
To me he's looking about 6'2" with Clarkson!
Arch Stanton said on 6/Mar/15
Rob, see 0:50 onward here.
Click Here Do you think he looks this low with Jeremy Clarkson? I can't see almost 6 inches between them, it looks near 3 to me, only Justin does have on Cuban type heels.
Editor Rob
hard to tell from the brief clip, he is nearer and has more footwear which could mean the difference is bigger than it looked.

Arch Stanton said on 11/May/14
Also seeing him next to Brian May he looks 1.5-2 inches shorter accounting for May's hair!
Arch Stanton said on 11/May/14
He does give the illusion of 6'2" as he has that long gangly rock star look about him, but he's about 2 inches shorter than Dan who is about 6'2" and about 4 inches shorter than Richie who is around 6'4. Hard to see him under this though.
The Reaper said on 2/Jun/13
I think he's taller. I saw them in concert and he looked freaking huge. A solid six foot, maybe a hair higher.
Godred said on 27/Dec/11
@Jamie - I think rob`s listing is correct,does wear big shoes sometimes.
Jamie said on 11/Dec/11
He's definitely 6 foot
Shaun said on 5/Sep/11
He does give the illusion of being Tommy Lee 6'2"-6'3" sort of height.
Shaun said on 28/Feb/11
Click Here
Here he has that long thin frame typical of a 6'2"-6'3" guy.
Shaun said on 28/Feb/11
Yeah he does look really lanky, yet he's shorter than me. Bizarre. Looks at least 6'2" I thought. I didn't know Dan was taller, I'd have guessed they were both around 6'2".
carol said on 18/Apr/09
He is long waisted but short legged. Look at the photos again.
Daii said on 6/Apr/09
He is really lanky and slim which has made him look 6 footish. 5'11 sounds right though
Doug said on 2/Apr/09
He looks tall doesn't he. I could have sworn he looked nearer 6'2" on occasions because of his lanky frame.
Alex of the Dead said on 20/Dec/08
ma mate says dat he apperars to much shorter than 5'11 when saw the darkness live but den again he is well over 6'0
nate said on 4/Jan/08
hes 5'11, maybe 5'11.5, Dan is indeed 6'2, Richie looks about two inches taller than Dan which would make him 6'4.yeah they are all tall. its too bad they broke up :(
Rockerrrrrrrrrrrrrr said on 23/Oct/07
Justin is actually 5'11", as he has said in many past interviews. We won't kill you for the half-inch discrepancy, but if you're going for accuracy, minus that .5
Part_of_the_Solution said on 20/Jun/07
Justin has said before he's 5'11. Ed is "about 6ft," his brother Dan 6'2 and Richie 6'4 (all from their mouths) iirc
A J gibson said on 29/Apr/07
Look at the episode of Top Gear where he's featured as the Star in a reasonably priced car, Jeremy Clarkson should be 6'4" and he only appears to be 2" shorter than Jeremy.
Tubbs said on 2/Dec/05
I think this is wrong, he's the shortest in the band, and I can't see the others being well over 6ft, he's never appeared that tall to me.

ah, I forgot about this guy...I had an email from Mr S who said this guy was 100% under 6ft:
Mr S who met him said: "more like 5'11 - 5.11.05" max [I placed him as the same height as me although he was wearing thin Converse trainers and I was wearing a slightly chunkier pair".
I can buy this range...deceptively skinny.
