a 6ft 5 range guy claiming 6ft 8 isn’t that unheard of (cough cough 6ft 5.5 rory mccann) but isn’t that acceptable either. he probably thinks bo burnham is 6ft 9.
Hyper said on 23/Jun/22
@Mickie
I honestly think Bo and Owen are close.
In their picture, Owen is really forcing his posture against Bo, yet their eye levels and ear-levels are extremely close.
Owen supposedly thinks Bo is taller than him.
Mickie said on 22/Jun/22
He may well measure taller against Bo Burnham than everyone is suggesting if they actually went under a stadiometer... I don't know. I haven't seen all that much of this guy I guess but I think he's at minimum as listed and possibly a fraction over this.
Vincent Caleb said on 1/May/22
@Canson
6’6” best case is possible too IMO
Maybe him and Gronk are both 6’5 7/8” guys at a low.
Canson said on 27/Apr/22
@Vincent: maybe 6’5 7/8 best case for him
Vincent Caleb said on 26/Apr/22
No Burnham 6’5.5” and Owen 6’5.75”
ChaosControl1 said on 18/Feb/22
Either his hands are tiny in that picture or his head is huge
Mickie said on 15/Feb/22
He looked mighty tall in the picture I saw of him with Adam Carolla. Taller than a 197 cm guy should. Wouldn't exactly be shocked if he's slightly over 6'6" even though the popular opinion here is that he's under it. I know the Bo Burnham picture doesn't suggest he's any more than 6'5.5" - 6'6" range but it's not as though we can even see footwear or if the ground is level. Obviously he doesn't look anything like the "pushing 6'8" he has claimed but if I had to put money on whether he'd measure over or under a flat 6'6" I would bet over.
Tall Sam said on 15/Feb/22
Not that familiar with him but from the picture above he always struck me there as a giant version of Trey Parker.
Canson said on 15/Feb/22
@Hyper: I can see 1 cm between them. Maybe half inch in some cases. The listings are probably about right with a possibility of Benjamin dipping to 6’5 7/8 perhaps and even Bo at 6’5 3/8 for their afternoon heights
Hyper said on 15/Feb/22
@Rampage
The most I could see between them is 1/4 of an inch. There are two pictures of Bo and Owen.
Owen and Bo looking very close in one. There was another where Owen was more relaxed but Bo looked taller than Owen.
It’s one of those things where it’s really hard to find a real difference between them.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Feb/22
Richard Osman, Tom Davis and even Merchant would effortlessly discredit his 6ft7 claim but I reckon he may still beat out Bo...

Owen is forcing his posture up while Bo isn't standing well, yet their eye levels, ear levels, and the top of their heads are very close. I would normally go for the top of their heads, but Owen is really forcing his posture with Bo.
recapa said on 20/Oct/21
@Hyper,i see maybe they could be the same height after all.
Hyper said on 12/Oct/21
@recapa Honestly, I don't think he's any taller than Bo Burnham. They did look extremely close. That's not even considering Owen forcing his posture next to Bo.
Not to mention, someone mentioned that Owen said Bo is taller than him (Owen).
I do think they are the same height.

197.5-198 before bed and 199.5-200 out of bed.if he edges burnham then he is 1cm taller at best.

He really has to force his posture next to 6' 6" Bo Burnham. No way in Hell Benjamin is 6' 7". He's 6' 5.75", maybe 6' 6" at most.
Hyper said on 11/May/21
seeing him with Vince Vaughn and in comparison with Lebron James, I wouldn’t go under 6’5.75” for Benjamin.
ChaosControl 6'2.5/189.2cm said on 1/May/21
My honest opinion is that if Owen stood next to Lamelo Ball, Ball would be taller and he’s a weak 6’6 at best
Hyper said on 26/Mar/21
@Canson
I'm not sure. Owen's really forcing his posture up while Bo is just slouching. I think they are the same.
We can disagree but we definitely agree Owen's nowhere near 6'7".
Canson said on 24/Mar/21
@Vincent and Hyper: if anything he’s got maybe 1/4” on Bo. I could see in one pic maybe a CM. I’d have gone 6’5.75” too for Owen
Vincent Caleb said on 22/Mar/21
He should be downgraded to 6’5.75” max. Agree with Hyper, no taller than Bo.
Canson said on 3/Feb/21
@Hyper and Junior: someone who’s met him says he looked 6’5-6’6 in person. May explain why he didn’t really edge Burnham. Add that Burnham may be 6’5.5 then he’s max 6’6”

Bo and Owen look the same. Owen is forcing his posture, looking at his eye level and ear level. Bo is slouching, yet they look identical. (Supposedly on Twitter, Owen said Bo is taller for some reason.) Vince is clearly shorter than Owen though. He might be closer to the camera. However, Owen is much more relaxed yet the difference in height is more visible. In general, Bo and Owen are taller than Vince Vaughn.
Vince holds up well with Kane, but Kane is slightly further away from the camera. However, Vince holds up extremely well with Lebron James.
Kane is over 6’6” though. He’s taller than Undertaker, Dennis Rodman, and even maybe Lebron James. I even saw Kane in person, as stated multiple times and I can promise ya’ll (even Rob) that he’s sky north of 6’6”, without a doubt.
————————————————
I can believe Owen to be 6’5.75” at worst. Otherwise, this listing is fine. (Feel free to disagree.)
I can believe Bo to be 6’5.5”, easily. I could see him being slightly taller than Christian. (Feel free to disagree too.)
Vince Vaughn is more 6’4.75” or maybe close to Vincent Caleb at best. (Feel free to disagree as well.)

Hey Owen, if you ever read this, I may be a sub 6’3 devious elf (almost made it), but at least I’m truthful about it
ChaosControl 6'2.5 said on 9/Jan/21
So there’s something Owen Benjamin, peak David Prowse, current Undertaker and Lamelo Ball have in common. They are all listed 6’6, and it could reasonably be argued that they are 6’5.75. This makes me want to do one of my beloved comparisons. If I had to guess, Owen would be the shortest, he could even be a weak 6’5.75, Lamelo and Prowse would be similar, with Lamelo looking taller due to his lankier build, and current Taker would be the tallest, given that he’s got the best chance of the full 6’6, and has seen over 6’7 in his younger days

It’s funny because there’s another photo of Bo and Owen.

You could argue Owen is not standing great here though.
The other picture is more accurate, but Owen is forcing his posture in the other picture while Bo is slouching.
If anything, I think Owen would be more 6’5.75” while Bo is more 6’5.5”. Honestly, i don’t think there’s a full half inch difference between them.
Hyper said on 11/Dec/20
@Vincent Caleb
His Twitter his gone, but supposedly (according to someone else who saw the picture of Bo and Owen on Twitter (a toxic website)), Owen supposedly admitted Bo is taller than him (Owen).
Poor height perception maybe, but the fact Owen is forcing his posture while Bo is slightly slouching, indicates maybe there’s a case for it. However, anything under 6’5” is dumb since Owen is visibly taller than Vince Vaughn, even while Owen was relaxed.
Vincent Caleb said on 6/Dec/20
@recapa:
I don’t even know if he is taller than bo. They looked pretty much the same, and he stood much straighter. I think 6’6” is too high. Yeah, his claims are stupid.

@J2Frenzy:
How dare you be modest with your height? LOL. Sometimes I round down just to mess with people too. You wouldn’t believe how insecure some are about their height. Very few people round down as commonly as you though. I bet the majority of people who get measured a quarter over a mark will just end up claiming 3/4 over what they measured.
J2Frenzy said on 25/Nov/20
@Vincent I round down (as mentioned in earlier comments) does that make me a bad guy?

Let’s see- Owen Benjamin, trump, Hannity,

@Christian yeah I say 6’2.5 at times too. It’s probably the most accurate claim because let’s be honest, how many people are gonna see me at my lowest?
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 18/Nov/20
@J2
Then how about a 6'2.5" claim? That's a good compromise, if you don't wanna claim either 6'2" or 6'3".
J2Frenzy said on 16/Nov/20
@Hyper I’m similar. I have never gone under 6’2, the flat 6’2 measurement is my extreme low. But I round down and claim 6’2 because it feels more honest than claiming my morning height of 6’3

Generally, I’m near 5’9”, around 5’8.75”. I just round down to my extreme low, because why not.

This dude is heightist, anti-semitic, and lies about his own height. Sounds like a real charmer...
Canson said on 13/Nov/20
@Hyper: what’s your normal low? That’s your true height not the extreme low. Although in my case my 6’4.25 is my normal but I round down to 6’4”. I guess we can consider it rounding down or claiming extreme low.
Hyper said on 13/Nov/20
Meant to say 5’8.5”-5’8.75” at night. Either way, you guys can measure me, in anyway you want, whether tape measure of stadiometer.
Sorry, Rob. I really meant to say that specific measurement at night, because I really did measure myself, at night.
The weird thing was I knew was over 5’8”, but whether I did measure myself as the 5’9”, was the question. Not at night, but just over it in the morning. It was weird. I kept measure myself constantly and I kept making sure the tape measure was correct.
Sorry about the confusion.

I couldn’t say exactly where I landed. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a picture because it was too expensive at the time.
He had a big footwear advantage over me. However, he was just casual in his posture and he just walked around. He honestly looked well over 6’7”, but he had a big footwear advantage over me.
The one thing I remember is It was a pain to look up to him.
I’ve seen a lot taller people, but he easily stood out, a lot.

They're extremely close in height. Owen is forcing his posture while Bo is leaning, yet they're very close.
However, I did see that Owen is visibly taller than Vince Vaughn and in comparison, looked similar to Kane the Wrestler. (I have met Kane in person and he's easily over 6'6", close to 6'7".) I wouldn't go under 6'5.75" at worst for Owen Benjamin.
Bo's listing of 6'5.5" is legit.

vastlybetter566 said on 31/Oct/20
Yeah. Rob, it's not my intention to start long political or moral discussions here, but to bring it back to height, I think it's worth pointing out that perhaps those who discriminate and mock shorter people are also more likely to discriminate on other factors outside of what one can control such as race, gender, etc. In Owen's Case it's notable and some people will continue defend bigots like him. Even if they go as far as denying the holocaust. That's just despicable.
Hyper said on 30/Oct/20
@vastlybetter566
He’s changed a lot too. I’ve seen those already. The height banter is really the fun banter. About the Jews, one of his big issue is with them is mainly the ‘The Talmud’ where one of the sections legalizes a relationship between a minor and an adult through a specific means.
He didn’t mean all Jews are like that as he stated separately, but he mentioned that the particular process and ruling is crap and nonsense. He might come of as arrogant, but he’s definitely not the worst.
Editor Rob
This page could easily veer too much away from his height onto other topics...
vastlybetter566 said on 30/Oct/20
@Hyper
If you need any proof that his height comments aren't satire or light hearted jokes, look up the videos in which he insulted
Ben Shapiro and
Joe Rogan on the basis of their height.
And on the anti semitism part: He literally repeated old antisemitic stereotypes with a straight face. If you think of any of this as humor, check yourself.
vastlybetter566 said on 30/Oct/20
@Hyper
Why is he a lot better than the media portrays him? Because he sometimes smiles into the camera?
Guy has called jews "parasites and filth". He has denied the holocaust and claims the media is run by jews.
Now that's some nice satire, right?
It just can't be a coincidence, that he also makes the incredibly degrading height comments, branding them as "politically incorrect satire". The saddest thing is that people like you will continue to defend bigotry.
Again, I wouldn't be as offended by the height comments, if these comments didn't go completely in line with comments he makes about other groups.
Hyper said on 30/Oct/20
@vastlybetter566
I don’t think he meant any ill will to them, in terms of height banter. A lot of it is just part of the fun banter. He’s a lot better than the media portrays him to be. He’s against a lot of people being snakes and predators.
I’m not trying to call anyone a snowflake, but try to understand what he’s saying in context.

@Christian 6’5” 5/8:
Agreed. My father claims 6-4 when he is only 6-2.5, and I find it kind of annoying, but it doesn’t matter that much. He is decently justified though, as my mom is 6 feet and similar height as him in heels, and my younger brother is 6-9 and I am 195 cm. He doesn’t feel tall in my family. At the end of the day, it is not something significant.
vastlybetter566 said on 29/Oct/20
Interesting how his ("funny") / despicable height comments mirror other aspects of his repulsive personality. When you read some of these comments, just replace the terms he is using to refer to short men and replace them with women or any minority or religious group - he feels the same way about them.
And no, it's not because I'm personally offended, I'm almost as tall as Owen Benjamin is.

@Mickie: maybe he’s 6’7” out of bed and 6’6” afternoon or possibly he had the advantage of not being on his feet as long as others in the pic. I think he may be a weak 6’6” guy too more Anthony Joshua’s height for example, at 6’5.75”

I did see Kane at my first trip to Galaxycon and he’s really huge in person.
Based on this, I think 6’5 7/8” is fine, but this is fine.
I also agree with Bo being Upgraded to 6’5.5”, since Owen is forcing his posture with Bo, who’s slightly slouching.

Not less than 6'5.75", based on how he stacks up with Kane (who i've met in person), with Vince Vaughn. Looked surprisingly a bit taller, by comparison. This is a good listing.

Dream said on 30/Jul/19

I think the following.
Owen Benjamin:
- 6'5.75" at worst. (It's really because he (with a camera advantage) looked taller than Kane, with Vince Vaughn.)
Bo Burnham:
- Arguably 6'5.5", truthfully. Feel free to disagree with me. Honestly, I do think he is over 6'5". I do think he would definitely be over 6'5", if I were to meet him in person.
- (I remember chatting with a few people, who have met Bo Burnham in person. One person (she) actually came to one of his shows and recorded him performing on stage. Bo actually called her out for recording him, jokingly and in a fun manner. Unfortunately, the posts are deleted.)
- She didn't 'specifically' say how tall he was, but she did say Bo was extremely tall, and she mentioned she was kinda tall, herself. Some of them, even called him a 'giant,' seeing him at a different event. The latter could be an exaggeration, but I don't think a guy over 6'5" would be just 'tall.'
Canson said on 24/Jul/19
@Dream: Bo is probably what Rob lists him. He’s over 6’5 flat I think

@Canson
even with that, I still wouldn't put Bo Burnham under a strong 6'5". There's a lot of great evidence that he's more just over 6'5" than under 6'5".
Honestly, if I'm looking at the picture again, Bo looks like he's kinda leaning onto Owen, who is standing with military posture.
The other photo, Bo looks taller and Owen was slightly loose. However, Bo was further away from the camera.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 19/Jul/19

@Dream and Junior: people who’ve met Owen in person across the internet say that he’s 6’5-6’6” range. That probably lines up with about 6’5.5 and he claims 6’7.5 adding 2” like others do. I bet Bo is really 6’5.25 like Rob lists him maybe 6’5 1/3 which is why there is no apparent difference between them. Owen May be like 197 or 6’5 5/8 but doubt any higher. The guy makes some stupid outlandish comments and lies about everything else. Don’t see why his height is any different. Bo likely is closer to 6’5 than anything else at least at a low and he’s being guessed taller than he is due to the lying by others.
Canson said on 18/Jul/19
@Easterwood: Benjamin is full of it. He’s probably barely 6’7” with shoes the more I see of him. Meaning maybe not even a full 6’6 maybe just a weak 6’6” (6’5 1/2 guy). He gets furious when people think he’s 6’6”? Meaning he probably is only that at best

"Vince Vaighn is taller than me, I think." -Owen Benjamin
Easterwood said on 18/Jul/19
@dream I defended him for a while, but I do think the guy has a couple screws loose. He's undergone some childhood and familial adversity, so it makes complete sense he wouldn't be entirely mentally healthy (whatever the guy may claim). He does lie about his height, as he does about his IQ, but doesn't percieve himself to be lying, only telling the most favorable version of the truth.
Dream said on 15/Jul/19
@Easterwood
I’m aware, but he’s actually not that arrogant. He seems cool, in terms of personality. He may look crazy, but the more I see of him, the more his insights helped me be more self-aware of reality.
I don’t buy his 6’8” claim, next to Bo Burnham. However, I think he’s 6’6” flat. 6’5 7/8” at worst. He looked taller than Kane (Who I met in person), with Vince Vaughn.
Easterwood said on 13/Jul/19
Been claiming 6'8 recently
Dream said on 15/Jun/19
@Canson Truthfully, Bo can pass for 6’5 1/2”. Owen looks close to 6’6”, but not over it. Both are definitely over 6’5” flat, without much question.
Canson said on 14/Jun/19
@Dream: I think Owen is weak 6’6” and Bo strong 6’5”. Definitely not 6’5 flat but maybe up to 6’5 3/8 Christian’s size
Dream said on 14/Jun/19
Also, I think Bo could be at least 6’5.5”. If Owen is really 6’6” flat (which he seems like it with Kane, (who I have seen in person), in comparison with Vince Vaughn), then Bo would be 6’5.75”. Bo and Owen don’t really look more than 1/4 of an inch apart. In fact, the difference could be even 1/8 or they could be roughly the same height.
Dream said on 10/Jun/19
@Junior
Actually, I think this listing is fine. Owen looks a little taller than Kane, with Vince Vaughn. Granted, Owen had a slight camera advantage, but he had loose posture.

And I have seen Kane up close, recently. (I didn't get a picture because it costed a lot more than I was expecting). I'd peg Kane at around 6'7". He looked about 6'8", but he had some thick shoes on.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I still think Owen and Bo would be the same height: Owen looked taller in one picture, but Bo looked like he was leaning onto Owen, who was standing with great posture.
In another picture, Owen was a bit loose in posture, but Bo was a little further away from the camera: This time, Bo looked much taller than Owen.
--------------------------------------------------------------
At the same time, 6'5" flat is out of the question. Owen's clearly taller than that (after seeing Kane in person, and comparing Owen and Kane with Vince Vaughn).

Eric Wareheim would be a taller 6'6 looking guy than Owen. Wish to see them standing with each other compete height in future.
Dream said on 6/Jun/19
With Vince Vaughn, Owen does a little look taller than Kane.
Perhaps he’s closer to 6’6” than I initially thought.
Canson said on 5/Jun/19
@Junior: I think he would edge Bo but not by all that much. Bo could be 6’5 3/8 at a low or what Rob lists him. Owen May be what Undertaker appears today 197-198
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 4/Jun/19
I don't think Owen is anything taller than Bo. Owen head look to be closer from Dream post, in reality Bo had a bigger size head than Owen. I could accept the lowest 6'5 1/2 from both that have to bring down half inch from Pete Holmes and Conan O'Brien.
Dream said on 29/May/19
Actually, Bo and Owen could be the same. Bo looks like he’s kinda leaning onto Owen, who is standing with very good posture.
Bo’s right eye level is tilting down a bit, but his left eye level looks the same as Owen’s eye level.
Bo still looks a lot taller than Vince Vaughn, going by comparisons with Owen Benjamin.
Dream said on 12/May/19

Bo and Owen look identical, if anything. Owen looks a fraction taller, but that’s the best I’d give him.

They look within a fraction, albeit their hairstyles aren't quite the same.

Meh, doesn't even matter once you hit that certain height you could claim 7 ft and probably get away with it lol so tall.

@Junior not to mention if Owen was measured 6'8", then Bo would have to be 6'8".
Really, I'm also getting the impression that Owen may 'not' be any taller than Bo.

What do you make of his 6’8” claim? 😝😝😝

I don't think that picture with Bo Burnham is very good for telling height, having said that he certainly doesn't look anywhere near 6'8" in it.

“cLoSEr tO 6’8”.”

Like I said before, one could consider the slight look posture of Owen, but Bo is slightly further away from the camera, canceling out everything.
Canson said on 10/Feb/19
Oh my God did he really claim to be closer to 6’8? Wow I’ve lost respect for him as he seems too full of himself with all of his comments about his height and being 6’7” etc. The guy is lucky if he’s even 6’6” without shoes. Probably weak 6’6” range really and 6’7” or near 6’7” in shoes
Mickie said on 8/Feb/19
Wow, "closer to 6'8"? That's super tall. I haven't really reached a conclusion on what I think Owen's exact height is barefoot, but that's really massive.

Yeah 6'5" flat is too low but a weak 6'6" is certainly arguable. But he's definitely not the worst 6'7" claim on this site, he'd measure taller than Brock O'Hurn.
Canson said on 5/Feb/19
@Mickie: maybe not flat 6’5 but maybe a weak 6’6”. He doesn’t look 6’7” and struggles at 6’6”. I get a taller impression from Wareheim than from him. Wareheim looks a legit 6’6” and even Bill Deblasio gives a taller impression than Owen

Well I think he definitely isn't 6ft 7 barefoot, and at times he might look 6ft 5.5 too barefoot.
Canson said on 4/Jan/19
@Dream: agreed that Bo would be an easy 6’6 out of bed. I don’t have him less than 6’5.25. But maybe even a hair over that. Owen to me strikes me as a weak 6’6”. I would say maybe a CM between them and he just claims 6’7” like most Hollywood guys would do in shoes. I would say 6’5 or even 6’6” which isn’t very desirable are still more desirable than 6’7 but whatever floats their boat. It’s surprising tho other than Tony Robbins who was 6’6 most likely peak or close or Brock Ohurn I don’t know many guys that size like Howard Stern claim taller. You see a Joe Mangianello who rounds up most likely and a guy like Tim Robbins who did claim 6’4.5 and now rounds up or even Vince Vaughn. Not to mention Owen gets touchy when people say he’s 6’6” which he likely is closer to even probably less than

Dream(5'9.5") said on 2/Jan/19
@Canson I agree. Measurement wise, I think Owen would probably edge out Bo by no more than 1/4 inch. Looking at the photo and Owen’s slight camera advantage, he really didn’t ‘look’ any taller than Bo.
This also further solidifies Bo being a strong 6’5”er. Bo has claimed 6’5” and 6’6”, on and off. Both claims are surprisingly consistent. While I don’t think Bo is 6’6” at night, I think Bo will hit at least 6’6” out of bed, easily, just like Metta World Peace.
Canson said on 2/Jan/19
@Dream: even crazier as Owen is touchy about his height claiming 6’7”. He must think Bo is 6’8” when he’s not anywhere near it. He’s 6’5” range but I still have Owen taller unless he isn’t near 6’6”. Chances are he may not be
Dream(5'9.5") said on 2/Jan/19
@Canson @Junior
According to a user on this site, Owen ‘Benjamin’ ‘supposedly’ admitted that Bo was taller than him (Owen) on Twitter, after posting a pic of him (Owen) and Bo.
I'm not sure why Owen would think that. However, that's seems like an indicator that Owen is probably a bit shy of 6'6".
Canson said on 31/Dec/18
@Junior: I would be hard pressed to see Bo above 6’5.5 maybe he meant it when he said 6’5, 6’6 on a good day. But I would wager that he’s less than 6’6” and likely mid or strong 6’5” . Owen is full of it if Bo is really taller than him and still claims 6’7”. I would say Owen is taller than Bo by a bit or they’re the same both strong 6’5” to weak 6’6”
Mickie said on 29/Dec/18
Not quite a big 6'7" guy, but certainly much closer than a guy like Brock O'Hurn who claims the same.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 27/Nov/18
@Dream(5'9.5") Bo real height is a hard guessing in this site but look near 6'6 on his stage performance, def downplay some height. I would guess they could be leveled in height if both barefoot like both 197cm at a low. 6'6 is fine for Owen listing but could have downgrade 1/4 better, it's Bo had to have a upgrade to 6'5 3/4 to be fair. 6'5 claim Pete Holmes is def solid 2cm shorter than Bo.
Dream(5'9.5") said on 16/Nov/18
@Junior I'd actually give Bo 6'5.75" if Owen was 6'6" as listed.
Dream(5'9.5") said on 15/Nov/18
@Junior @Canson
Honesty, I think 6’5 3/8th” for Bo Burnham is very arguable.
I’m still amazed Bo ‘looked’ taller than Owen, after seeing their photo.
I think it’s really time for a downgrade for Owen.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 13/Nov/18
If he is really 6'6 i"ll give Bo solid 6'5 5/8 not just looking at the latest picture with Bo. It's overall comparison with other celebrities estimation and there is no way 3/4 between them.
Canson said on 8/Nov/18
@Dream: I do agree. I think all three including Bo would measure very closely today. I have Fox around 196.5 today as well
Dream(5'9.5") said on 5/Nov/18
@Canson Agreed!
One thing for sure is, he doesn't really look 6'6". (That would be more Bill Fagerbakke.) Owen looks well over 6'5" with Vince Vaughn, but he didn't seem any taller than Bo. Even if we consider the slight loose posture Owen had, Bo is slightly 'further away' from the camera, thus cancelling out any noticeably advantages and disadvantages.
Feel free to disagree with me, but I think Owen is probably very similar to Rick Fox. Both are over 6'5", but definitely not the full 6'6". Certainly not even close to 6'7".
Canson said on 4/Nov/18
@Dream: he could look more or less Bo Burnham’s height at times. I could buy 6’5 1/2 for him as well.

@Dream(5'9.5") the picture with bo and owen, owen even says that bo was taller than him though i think the tip of his head was fractionally higher. bo is lanky though which probably gave owen the impression that he was much bigger
Dream(5'9.5") said on 1/Aug/18
I personally wouldn’t put Bo Burnham under a strong 6’5”. Bo looked than Kobe Bryant when comparing them both with Michael Carter Williams. He edged out Pete Holmes with less footwear.
I still have yet to see a picture of Owen and Bo together. I reckon he could be in a similar range to Anthony Joshua.

If you are over 5'11 - 6' foot legit i really don't see the need in adding on extra fake inches to your height, you are more than tall enough.I kind of get it with sports professionals like Basketballers, wrestlers etc... but it's embarrassing this guy feels the need to inflate when he is already touching giant Height and he obviously knows his true height as he goes on about it enough.

I hope he is joking, the most ordinary and regular height range for men is 5'5" - 6'1" and I usually see more small men about than tall men, there are certainly just as many small men as there are tall men. There is nothing wrong with being outside this most regular range either, in whichever direction! I think he is joking, I am sure he is with him being a comedian!
Nik said on 22/Dec/17
He is possibly 6'6" but not a penny more! If anything he may be slightly less!
woodne said on 20/Dec/17
He's more than likely similar to myself, I wake at 200cm and drop to 197cm at night and with 300Ilbs in weight to contain it is hardly surprising that gravity is not my friend and natural forces prevail in terms of spine compression....
I always comment 6'5 when asked... which is daily if not more frequent.
I think 6'5 plus is an honest assumption.
Tunman said on 20/Dec/17
Of course he's joking.No respect for men under 6'5 so like 1 out of 500 guys?If he was serious he would either spend his life hanging with BB players or as a recluse.And I doubt he's heightist,very unlikely that he would judge a person for his/her height.Good and bad people exist at every height,he's smart enough to know it
