Paul Sturgess Height
7ft 7 ¼ (231.8 cm)
English basketball player, and Britain's tallest man. For Guinness Records, in 2011 he measured in at 7ft 7 ¼. In 2014 he mentioned "When I was about 15, I started to grow a lot faster. Between the age of 15 and 16, I grew really fast [10-12 inches] and then it was gradual until I was 21. I’m 7ft 8in now and I’ve stopped growing". At age 14 he was only 6ft and his Father is 6ft 7.

"Sambridge isn't 7ft 1, he was measured in a documentary at 6ft 10 and looked upset...to be fair, the Doctor got it right - in person he is a few inches shorter than ian whyte."
@Rob, considering how Ross Sambridge had spine curvature though and measured 6'10 with that curvature, is it not possible he was like maybe 7'0 peak without it? Not as tall as 7'5 though like he previously claimed.

Editor RobIt could depend when the curvature developed.

Steven Gatkuoth's listed height of 7'0/213cm looks legit in the pic with Paul Sturgess. I'd say Mat Piotrowski looks over 7'0 but under 7'1 and Luke Piowtrowski's 6'11 listing looks legit.👍

You mean South Sudanese basketball player Steven Gatkuoth? I found him by searching "Gatkuoth" on Eurobasket and saw he was the one of the three players with the last name "Gatkuoth" who is listed as 213cm/7'0. He does look like the guy on the left in the pic. Interestingly, he also went to Mountain State, the same college that Paul Sturgess went to.

Far right is 6'11 listed Luke Piotrowski and second from right (between Luke Piotrowski and Paul Sturgess) is 7'2 listed Mat Piotrowski. Paul for once doesn't look like a giant here. I wonder who the guy on the far left is though...

It's interesting seeing Paul's head size compared to the other very tall guys.

Click Here Peter Crouch did not look 11.75" shorter than Paul, Peter make it an inch above his chin which he look over 6'8. Paul's head legit 12" maybe 1/4 more, so i have no doubt Peter is below 6'8 in reality.

@ Editor rob, in that video clip, it's kind of tricky to tell because of his hair, but his boots are at least 1.5-1.75 inches thick.
Click Here, here he is standing next to a giant ruler (this may not be very accurate), but it seems he goes up to the 234 cm mark in his sneakers. Here's an up close view of his boots, Click Here.
And lastly, here's a picture of him standing next to the last Neil Fingleton, it seems that neil is standing slightly behind him. Click Here

Editor Robhe can look 1.5 inches taller, although maybe is indeed a bit closer...I'd still have thought he could measure taller than Neil

Mr.Rob, whenever you have time, can you give this clip a look. Have you ever heard of Bob Wegner? He says his 7'8.5", but I don't think that's barefoot. In this clip, you can see he's a smidge over 7'9", but look how thick the soles of his boots are. Click Here

Yeah Paul head is 12" in length and Dan Walker is probably 6'4 1/2" a low indicate Paul lowest claim of 7'7 since he also claim 7'8.

Editor RobHow accurate the measurement I'm not sure, could be some room for error. One thing I noticed is The tape on the wall was moved, but I don't think anything funny, just moved up - if he read the bottom of the yellow tape then that would have been near where the girl put the object on his head.

Based on this picture, it seems he is more in the 7’6 range, and plus he is in shoes too, maybe 7’5.75-7’6 is more accurate

Mr. Rob what’s your opinion of Robert Bobroczky, the 7’7” teen who plays for Spire institute. I read that he also has scoliosis, how tall do you believe he’d be with a straight spine? Apparently he was 6’2” at 8 YEARS OLD!! Will you be adding him to your site anytime soon?

Editor RobHis skinny frame helps him look at least that range, maybe even taller at times. WOuld be interesting to see what he actually measured.

Yes
Also a possible explanation as to why Paul Sturgess’ voice is so deep in comparison to someone like Neil Fingleton is perhaps due to his accent? Some accents in parts of the British Isles can sound quite deep. Rob himself is an example of this!

So around 7’8.5”? I spoke to someone who is 7’6” and he said the same thing. He told me that a doctor told him he has full genetic height potential and that only an inch or two more is possible. He said that his youngest son is predicted to be a little taller than him, his other son is 7’2”

You're right about Neil fingleton and Bob Wegner, both are naturally tall. Manute Bol was all natural also ( 7'6 3/4" ).
If you had to guess, what's the maximum height that could be achieved through genetics?

didn’t even think it’d be possible to be 7’7” without having some kind of medical condition or pituitary issue.

I am sure he has gigantism, as his face is very long and the structure of his face points to such. Also, his voice seems very deep as in the case of someone with gigantism. Yes, a lot of naturally tall giants like Yao Ming have deep voices but Sturgess has a voice characteristic of someone with acromegaly.
As for my guess, he appears to be 232-233cm tall

He was measured at 7'7.25" in a documentary, so Paul definitely isn't shorter than that and he looked like a foot taller than Peter Crouch who is listed as 6'7.5" on here. He was a little bit shorter than the late Neil Fingletob, they gave a similar impression even though Paul had a bigger head. Paul is 7'7 1/4" inches tall.

Click Here How tall is that guy next to Sturgess Rob ?
I don't think Manute Bol was a real 231cm since I saw him next to Chris Mullin who is about 6'4-5 (he looks 6'3 in my opinion)Click Here
I actually think he was no taller than his son Bol Bol

Definitely acromegaly gigantism causes his head grow one foot long. I don't see Yao Ming, Shawn Bradley and Manute Bol had such long head and large hands.

Sturgess has acro and constantly denies this. He should seek medical help. I do believe though that his height is legit.

This guy definitely has a condition. Most likely acromegaly. Classic signs are his huge jaw and hands. Also he grew a foot I'm such short period of time so there is something up with his pituitary this isn't genetic growth.

Rob, I know I'm very demanding but can you recycle or delete this page maybe replace it with Brahim Takioullah if no one bothers to even comment on much, cause all the fanbase want to comment on 8ft+ rather than just 7'7''??

Editor Rob mrt, I will give Brahim a page, but it's not always about commenting.

He never did any test of acromegaly like Neil, so there is a possibility he has it and he resembles Christopher Greener

Editor Rob my guess is still part of an overall average.
I'm trying to find a best guess for all these people really, though in cases like Paul, he was measured, so that is a good point to consider!

Hey Rob, do you think 7'8" is his morning measurement?
Editor Rob
Hey Rob, do you think 7'8" is his morning measurement?
Editor Rob would be interesting to find out how tall he wakes up at. I'd say with certainty he would clear 7ft 8.

I'm sorry but he's too tall to be a great basketball player. I would say 2.2m is the absolute limit for significant success in the sport. Of course there are a few exceptions like Yao Ming, Shawn Bradley and Manute Bol.
