Christian-196cm (6ft5.25in) said on 20/Aug/16
Another actor that Rob may have overlisted. To me, he looks a flat 6ft5 (195.5cm)
Canson said on 23/Jul/16
Yea he looks 196 tops maybe even 195.
Alex said on 8/Jul/16
A bit shorter than sir Russell, but still really tall, maybe 196 or 197 cm in this pic, but my opinion, not over a good 193 or 194 cm without footwear.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Jun/16
Yeah berta, 196cm looks spot on. I don't see him as a guy near 6ft6. Clive Russell looks taller
Editor Rob
I would say both these guys are very close in height in person...I think you'd need to have measured them both to see if there was more than 1/4 between them.
berta said on 3/Jun/16
In the photo i would have thought maybe 195 .I tihnk like this:
195 25%
196 50%
197 25 %
Lord Beerus said on 28/May/16
Not even 6ft6 with the hat on.
mrtguy said on 1/May/16
Looks 6'5'' range not quite 6'6''
EzioAuditore711 said on 30/Apr/16
I'm a legit 6'6" as well now. 6'6.5" out of bed.
S.J.H said on 30/Apr/16
I had to be honest to say that rory look more similar to ryan mcpartlin height with rob. More specific that he look like 6'4.5 on the left picture and 6'4 on the right picture. Maybe 6'5 was the max he could apear in person?
Alex said on 23/Mar/16
His eye level suggest more like 194,5 or 195 cm
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/Mar/16
Rob, maybe 6ft5¼ could be on the money for him?
He might squeeze out another centimetre. But like fellow GOT castmate Nonzo Anonsie, his 6ft6 claim might be a little embellished.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Mar/16
"Rory McCann's height is 6ft 5in (195.58cm)"
Maybe 6ft5½ earlier in the day, Rob?
Editor Rob
I certainly would say 6ft 5 wasn't impossible, but I just don't know if he's a guy who can stretch up another cm when you get him under a stadiometer.
John said on 3/Mar/16
195-196cm. Don't really see a 197cm.
NBAer said on 29/Feb/16
Rob,you're clearly above his chin area,actually the top of your head is level with this guy's lower lip,so around 18-19cm difference maybe imo... I can't see him as any taller than 192,maybe 193-194cm max since he has a big head.Another very generous listing imo...
joe### said on 27/Feb/16
to be fair seems to look legitimate 6'5
S.J.H said on 20/Feb/16
I couldn't lie to say he look over 194cm with rob. Unless rob on a good day at 5'8.5 to make rory look close to 6'5 but i'm going to stick with 6'4.75 and probably a 1.25" dress shoe make him 6'6 , 6'5.5 is bizarre
Canson said on 2/Feb/16
Ezioauditore711: I agree with you and others on your assessments. Rob comes up to him the same as my 5'8 wife comes up to me at 194-195 cm. bet you at 6'5 and change would edge him out and Ali Baba even more so at a legit 6'6"
EzioAuditore711 said on 30/Jan/16
STILL no downgrade? You need to shave an inch off of this listing. He's 6'5.5" only with shoes on.
@Brian said on 21/Jan/16
Posture, build etc. do add to it, Rory has shown incorrect or relaxed posture in photos, there are some pics of him next to Gwendoline and in one his knees are bent way out. There were some pics put up of him before and after filming s4 when he was working out and he had a much straighter back and looked in balance at 6'6.
184.3cm (Night) said on 21/Jan/16
Well after seeing him next to Gwendoline who is 6'3 with at least a 3 inch boost from her footwear i can't see him under 6'5. They were equal so he hits 6'6 give or take a fraction in normal footwear. Hence his claim i guess.
I do agree that he looks a weak 6'5 in the pic though, 6'4.5" even.
Crane said on 20/Jan/16
I've been said before that he wasn't 6'5.5. He always looked around 6'4.5 - 6'5 range in GOT. The maximum for him is 6'5 flat and that's it.
James B said on 16/Jan/16
i would guess 6'3 or 6'4 compared to rob if I didn't know his height
Brian said on 13/Jan/16
A trainer who worked with him said he had poor posture due to an old injury...he also bends sometimes at the knee and stoops/leans in slightly in pictures.
Zalean said on 5/Jan/16
197 is too high. 195 is right.
joe @@ said on 13/Nov/15
Rob, it may be too close to the height of 6'5 legitimate as Wladimir and peyton manning
pablo77bar(184cm) said on 7/Nov/15
Rob,still no downgrade ?
Rob,Is he taller than Joe,Hopper,Nonso,196 challanger or even Yeager ????
Editor Rob
with others from game of thrones I'd say that 6ft 5 or 5.5 is arguable, for the moment I left him at 6ft 5.5 as I don't know for sure if he's a flat 6ft 5.
joe @@ said on 9/Oct/15
I would not go with 194 cm more could be 6'5.25 as peyton manning

Andrea said on 7/Oct/15
I'm talking about this picture... Do you agree that some height is missing then? If you tell me that he's 100% no shorter than 6'5 in person, i can believe you... The picture just doesn't show a big 6'5 guy next to 5'8, just saying that!
Editor Rob
I think he's standing decent enough, I mean I'm a bit loose, but I do think a half inch has gone missing...not as bad as Colin Samuel who really looked solid 6ft 4 range.
actually it's the same camera/photographer for ryan mcpartlin, but I do think rory is taller, 6ft 5-5.25 is quite arguable, even Maisie called him 6ft 5...
Andrea said on 7/Oct/15
With "an extra bit" do you mean a good inch? He's roughly around your hairline level and you said that's about 1.5 inches (to the top of the head), which means he looks about 6'4.25 with you...
Click Here
Editor Rob
beside
Gwendoline here I think that's pretty accurate, somewhere in 6ft 5 range, 5.5 could always be a fraction too high.
Andrea said on 6/Oct/15
Rob, I am considering the fact he's got a big head when i say he looks not much more than 194 with you! You say his posture was ok, then the photo took away about an inch? As i said, do you think what happened is the same thing that happened with Colin?
Editor Rob
I'm giving him benefit that he has an extra bit of height in him.
Andrea said on 5/Oct/15
So, do you really think he'd be taller than both Kobe and Ibra, if measured? And why does he look max 194 with you? Just bad posture or some camera effect (similar to what happened with Colin Salmon)?
Editor Rob
in person his posture is ok, he certainly isn't 6ft 6 walking about, but with a longer than average head (possibly 10.5 inches) that can make him appear a bit smaller I think, but I would say no less than 6ft 5.
Andrea said on 3/Oct/15
Yeah, he is a big guy but still he doesn't look (much) over 194 with Rob, that's a fact! Also, in GOT i would have never guessed him as a big 6'5, let alone his claim of 6'6! Rob, do you think he'd be comfortably taller than a Kobe Bryant, if measured? Or even Ibra?
Editor Rob
I do think he is 6ft 5 range, that's what I felt, but 6ft 6 range seemed too much, I give him 6ft 5.5 because he may well still measure that.
Ali said on 1/Sep/15
Definitely a big big guy!
197cm is too much for him I think. He looks to be max 194cm. 6'4.5 I think that is.
Tunman said on 12/Aug/15
I recall a guy who was 6'5.5 with probably a big 10.5 head.I definitely felt I was 1 cm over the middle of his mouth.That's certainly 8" difference.
I would have thought there is 8.75" difference in the right pic that would make Rory 6'5 but no more,and we aren't sure Rob isn't dropping height.He can even look 6'4.5 on the left pic but Rob wouldn't be that far of course.6'5 is fine and the .5 is useless in my opinion.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Jul/15
I think he'd measure shorter than Clive Russell.
Maximus said on 21/Jun/15
it is so stupid when someone list him at 6'4.75"....really....a 1/4" from 6'5".....its obvious that he is around '6'5"...he towers over Rob....get for real Rob height estimate is very accurate.
Crane said on 2/Jun/15
6'6...... More like 6'4.75 - 6'5 flat! Anything more than 6'5 195.6 for Rory is a load of Imagination...
hal said on 21/Apr/15
You peopled to stop trying to have this guy downgraded. Rob has actually seen this guy in person and he's positive he's a strong 6'5". And I agree with that. The Hound is supposed to be a big dude. I don't think they'd cast a guy who isn't close to 6-and-a-half feet tall.
Matthew said on 19/Apr/15
Jason Maomoa is more 6'3" and change than a full 6'4" imo. McCann is about 6'5", maybe a little over it, but closer to 6ft 5 than 6.
Andrea said on 18/Apr/15
"EzioAuditore711 says on 14/Apr/15

He probably will never downgrade him, even if he looks max 6'4.5 next to him...

bobby h3342 said on 13/Mar/15
half the guys that our barefoot 6,4.5 claim 6'6 and its mostly accepted. look at mj or kobe or Charles barkley. a lot of people claim there shoe heights for most part if someone says there 6'4 there most likely 6.2.5 to 6'3 barefoot. that's the way it seems to be. and even though this site says barefoot estimates, its still 75% shoe heights, in my opinion
184.3cm said on 2/Mar/15
My first impression was a flat 6'5, he has a relaxed posture. He Probably claims shoe height since he is a big star now.
joe 193cm night said on 1/Mar/15
Jared uses many great shoes and to realize the photos with this Momoa forcing posture
Andrea said on 28/Feb/15
Of course he does, this guy is not 6'5.5, unless he's losing some height in the photos! Is Rory taller than Jared Padalecki in person, Rob?
Editor Rob
yes he's taller up close.
Andrea said on 27/Feb/15
Nope, joe. Ali tries to be objective, which is a good thing, btw... If you wanna go objective, this guy doesn't look 6'5 at all in this photo! He looks a good 6'4 range guy, maybe 6'4.5 at best! If he'd manage to gain another inch in posture or whatever, then yeah he might be as listed but that's another deal! This photo certainly doesn't show a 5'8 guy next to a 6'5.5 one!
Editor Rob
one thing is...Clive Russell does give more of the taller impression (if he stands at his tallest) out of rory and himself.
joe 193cm night said on 23/Feb/15
Andrea,Ali always tries drops dramatically these guys, this guy is a 6'5 variables
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Feb/15
Rob could 6ft5¼ be a little closer to the mark?
Editor Rob
he might measure that...
Andrea said on 10/Feb/15
Well, then some height must have disappeared in this photo, like Colin Salmon, because Ali's photo says it all...
Click Here
That certainly is not only 0.25 inches difference between "Big Rob" and him :)
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Feb/15
Rob, who who was taller in person this guy or Nonso Anonzie?
Editor Rob
harder to tell as Rory I think could look anywhere in 6ft 5 range, but not a big 6ft 6 guy.
EzioAuditore711 said on 30/Jan/15
I didn't say he was 6'3.5''. I said he LOOKS closer to 6'3.5''. Learn to read. He could very well be 6'4.5''. Why would he lie about his height though? He sure doesn't look almost 6'6'' with Rob. I'm 6'6'' and 5'8'' people reach my chin. Based on this picture Rory is about 6'4''.
Andrea said on 13/Jan/15
6'3.5 is 100% impossible!!! You agree, Rob? I mean, he has no less than 8 inches on you and you are a bit over 5'8! 6'4.25 is the minimum he might be, just basing on this picture...
Ivana said on 10/Jan/15
EzioAuditore711: Based on what?
EzioAuditore711 said on 20/Dec/14
He looks closer to 6'3.5'' than 6'5.5''. I'd give him 6'4'' at a stretch 6'4.5'' but no more. Needs a downgrade. No way is he nearly 6'6''.
Andrea said on 1/Dec/14
He looks taller than 6'4 with Rob, but i would say more 6'4.5-6'5 zone than 6'5.5-6'6! He really looks noway near his claim, let alone his proportions, Arch, because that means nothing! You cant say "this guy can't be only 6'4" just basing on proportions...
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 21/Nov/14
Rob, maybe he's 6ft5¼ like Nonso Anozie?
Editor Rob
it is a good chance, somewhere in 6ft 5-5.5 range.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Nov/14
Rob, are you sure he's this tall?
I have a hard time believing he's only marginally shorter Clive Russell.
Editor Rob
6ft 5 flat isn't impossible.
Arch Stanton said on 9/Nov/14
Andrea says on 9/Aug/14
For sure he gives a taller impression ;) I mean, i'd be surprised if this guy was really this listing, this is pretty optimistic like listing G at 5'8 xD
If you look at photos of Rory I'd say actually he has nearer a typical 6'6" look than 6'4". It's a noticeable difference from how a 6'4" range guy looks. Sometimes I think the photos with Rob bring out the downgraders who start to place 100% everything on them, "oh he LOOKS 6'4 range in this photo with Rob, therefore it's impossible he's actually taller".
Click Here Proportionally to me he looks in 6'5-6'6 range.
Jon said on 18/Oct/14
What would you say his head size is Rob?
Editor Rob
possibly in 10.25-10.5 range, the 99th percentile range.
Tommo said on 14/Oct/14
If he's as tall as Gwendoline when wearing heels (her, not him, lol) then I'd say 6'5 is probably right on the money.
Lonestar said on 12/Sep/14
I don't think Clive Russell edge Rory. They were probably same height but Russell win by shorter neck high shoulder
Kostas said on 30/Aug/14
He looks close to Gwendoline who is in heels here. What do u think Rob? How tall is the blonde guy?
Click Here
Editor Rob
you mean Nikolaj? I think his top range is 6ft 1.5, at times he can look anywhere in 6ft 1 to 1.5 range.
Concerned 181 cm said on 10/Aug/14
Lars Mikkelsen, who is listed here at 6'3.5, also looks nearly the same height as Rory when comparing them to Robb. No more than an inch difference, most likely less.
Andrea said on 9/Aug/14
For sure he gives a taller impression ;) I mean, i'd be surprised if this guy was really this listing, this is pretty optimistic like listing G at 5'8 xD
Andrea said on 9/Aug/14
Well, Clive Russell looks 6'4 just in this pic... This guy can look between 6'4 and 5 here, for sure not 6'5.5 unless he's losing an inch in posture!
Editor Rob
clive does give off a taller impression in person, but then is a bit skinnier aswell.
Sam said on 7/Aug/14
To me, he looks the same height in photo as Clive Russell but Russell is slouching and McCann is standing with better posture. Like I said, I think McCann can still pull off 6'5" but I don't see 6'5.5" or 6'6" and never really have since I've been watching GOT.
Concerned 181 cm said on 7/Aug/14
Yeah, I'm not seeing him even being 6'5 in this picture, and definitely not over it. He looks more 6'4.5, and I think even that's being pretty generous.
Bishop said on 6/Aug/14
Rob, I don't know how you see 6'5.5" with this guy. It actually looks like YOU'RE the one slouching, not him. He looks 195 cm max and that's being generous considering Ali Baba's pic.
zackmack said on 3/Aug/14
Poor guy. He's way above average a.k.a being 'too tall', he's really hairy and not exactly good looking.
There's no doubt he can act though and I wish him all the best
James B said on 31/Jul/14
NO WAY is he looking 6'5.5 with rob more like 6'4.
Concerned 181 cm said on 7/Jul/14
So why do you come up to his mouth? There's a 9.5 inch difference, shouldn't you barely reach his chin?
Concerned 181cm said on 2/Jul/14
How much is he slouching here? He should be a full head taller than Rob or slightly less. He really doesn't look it in these pictures.
Editor Rob
he was standing fine I thought...someone like say Clive Russell was dropping a few inches in posture, that guy looked to be nearer 6ft 6 than Rory.
Andrea said on 29/Jun/14
If he's slouching at least an inch as you say, i could buy 6'5.5 for sure... But something tells me he isn't! He really doesn't look over 194-195 in these pics...
iyolo said on 27/Jun/14
On both pics (especially the first) he is slouchng-he loses at least an inch that way-i think he is in the 195 rang,maybe a hair more. As for KROC,he looks intimidating,trust me-especially with Maisie Williams :)
The Horse of FUNK said on 26/Jun/14
Compared to 6'3"
Gwendoline Christie (Brienne on GoT), I just have a hard time seeing this man at 6'6". There was not much difference between the two. I'm starting to think McCann is more 6'4" - 6'5".
KROC said on 25/Jun/14
I call BS. Sorry Rob, I respect your judgment, but this guy doesn't even look the full 6'5 to me. And there's nothing intimidating about this guy whatsoever.
Rikashiku said on 24/Jun/14
6'5.5" to 6'6" looks about right.
C to the D said on 9/Jun/14
Easy 6'5. Saw him when my company did some work on a set in Belfast. He's a huge guy.
Arch Stanton said on 5/Jun/14
Perhaps it's the beard making it look even longer.
Arch Stanton said on 5/Jun/14
Rob would you think he might have an 11 inch long head? He certainly seems to look to have the head of a 6'6" man.
Editor Rob
I would say about 10.5
Arch Stanton said on 30/May/14
I really cannot believe some people think he's no more than 6'4! He looks a weak 6'6" in the left photo and 6'5" in the right to me here. Looks very intimidating anyway.
Andrea said on 24/May/14
Rob, sorry if i insist, but do you completely rule out 194 range? Ali has a point when he says he doesn't look much over 6'4, just look at the comparison with your 6'5.75 version... He looks at least 3 cms shorter to me! One thing is sure, he's not 6'5.5, you can argue around 6'5 but not more... If you tell me he has worse posture or shoe dis., then yeah, there's a chance he's taller than 6'5, but i doubt it
Editor Rob
I wouldn't rule out 6ft 5 flat, but I am not as confident he'd be that low
dude said on 17/May/14
An inch isn't as big as some think. He easily looks 6'5 minimum
à said on 13/May/14
I don't get the 6'5.5 here rob. Seems more like 6'4.5 to me
dude said on 7/May/14
look at Rory next to the 6 ft 2 in Timothy Dalton in Hot Fuzz, he is easily 3.5 to 4 inches taller than him. I think people think an inch is bigger than it really is.
Clint 5'9" said on 6/May/14
Although
Jason Momoa isn't standing straight, you can still see there's a height difference favouring Rory McCann:

He only looks 6'3-6'4 in this picture to me. Your head nearly reaches his nose.
Grgo said on 29/Apr/14
In reality there's no way he ever reached 198cm. I don't think hes over 195cm saw him next to jason momoa im not even sure if he looked taller than him really max 195cm.
Bard said on 11/Apr/14
I'd give him 6'5. Looks a little shorter in the pics, but w/e
EzioAuditore711 said on 11/Apr/14
He looks 6'4'' maybe 6'4.5''. Maybe got measured in sneakers first thing in the morning and got 6'5.5'' and thought it was close enough to 6'6'' and that's probably where his claim came from.
Sam said on 8/Apr/14
Rob, what do estimate Rory weighs?
Editor Rob
maybe close to 240 pounds
Andrea said on 5/Apr/14
6'2 at best? That's crazy. In these pictures he doesnt look under 194-195 to me, i still doubt he's 6'5.5 but there's much more chance he's 6'5.5 than 6'2!!
CitizenKane said on 5/Apr/14
No way!!! 6.5??? Crap...needs a downgrade immediately. I don't see 197, this dude only 6.2 (188cm) at best, but more 6.1 and half (187cm).
Alex 6ft 0 said on 21/Mar/14
Lillo, at 6'5 your head length is 9 inches since your 5'8 sister hits your chin? Yea Rory can look 6'4-6'4.5 but his head may be longer than average that may be why its a 9 inch difference rather than an 8 inch difference. Up to just below someones mouth is usually 8 inches on a normal sized head of 9.5 inches
Lillo thomas said on 20/Mar/14
Alex I'm 6'5 at my lowest . My 5'8 sister reach about my chin level. If you ask me I would say Rory look about 6'4 range with rob . In the pics above he doesn't look 6'5. I trust Rob judgement . Maybe this guy look 6'5 in person.
Alex 6ft 0 said on 20/Mar/14
Lillo Thomas, you're like 6'5 1/4 you said right? Is that how you look with guys like Rob's height?
avi said on 19/Mar/14
@Lillo thomas says on 6/Mar/14
I think this guys needs a downgrade to 6'5 . He is 6'5 tops.
that i agree with. 6'5 is safest bet. can look a bit under but it cant be much because Rob is a lot shorter. if Rob stood straighter and not so close in leaning then yeah could be 6'4.5 area.
Mastro said on 19/Mar/14
If HE says he's 6'6"- he's 6'6"!!
Andrea said on 14/Mar/14
Rob, you think Ali's pic is a good one? I mean, that's how a 6'5.75 guy would look next to you? In that case, Rory looks more 6'4... Even if i guess a 6'5 listing would be ok for him... Does he look taller than the big challenger?
Editor Rob
6ft 5-5.5 is probably a range I would argue for him. Below it, I'm not so sure.
Lillo thomas said on 6/Mar/14

Robbin said on 27/Feb/14
he seem like a legit 6'4 here
Sam said on 24/Feb/14
It should be noted that he wasn't towered by the 7 foot tall Conan Stevens in their scene together in GOT, you'd think a solid 6 inch difference would be more prominent. There's some shots of them rehearsing their fight scene online. Stevens makes McCann look downright svelte by comparison BTW.

Mid190s said on 23/Feb/14
This guy is only 6'5 flat, maybe less.
He looks smaller than myself(196) and challenger 15.
Balrog said on 22/Feb/14
A man of this size is probable he shrinks at least 2cm or even an inch. So possibly he wakes at near 6'6'' and shrinks to 6'5'' flat. This could explain his 6'6'' claim
avi said on 21/Feb/14
@Arch Stanton says on 20/Feb/14
Well he certainly has the long face and structure typical of a 6 ft 6 man. Ali Baba's comparison just makes 197 look dubious doesn't it.
yeah if Ali Baba did some more of these he could get Nairn at 6'8 area tops and Cudmore around 6'6.5 tops. I still think this guy is 6'5 or close but maybe we are just trained to think this way because he set the bar so high with his 6'6 claim! though i think 6'6 is his height in boots rounded up a 1/4 inch so possible 6'4.75 maybe
Ali Baba said on 21/Feb/14
Arch Stanton says on 20/Feb/14
Hmm he has a very long face but considering he's 6'5.5" as Ali Baba points out you'd expect Rob to be nearer his chin than lip. He looks more 6'4.5" to me here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Arch, I actually said he looked to be in the 6'4.25" range. My measurement was just to show where 6'5.75" would be. I really don't see anything over the 6'4.25"..
Ali Baba said on 21/Feb/14
Well, I have about a 10" head. A person who is about 5'8" comes up to under my chin. This doesn't look like anything over around 6'4" or so.

Yet another Games of Thrones guy over 6'4". The cast must have the highest average height in the northern hemisphere!!
truth said on 12/Feb/14
6ft5 more closer.
avi said on 7/Feb/14
@Ali Baba
you're making the same point i do on this site with the head lengths. throwing Rob's head on top of McCann's comes a decent amount past his. If you measure like this Rory is lucky to be 6'4.75. Rob's head is about 9.5 inches i think so 9.5 + 68 is 77.5 which means Rory should be about equal with if Rob's head was placed on top as per the picture you posted. i say this guy is 6'5 max

Even JT's estimate shows him only (only? LOL) being about 8.5" above Rob's height, which is 6'4.75" and doesn't account for Rob's worse posture. Could be in the 6'4.25" or so, but not much more.
JT said on 6/Feb/14
Click Here Rob has worse posture too.
Balrog said on 5/Feb/14
I think 6'5'' flat for him would be perfect.
sigge said on 5/Feb/14
He could be a fraction under 6'5. Maybe 6'4.75?
Ali Baba said on 4/Feb/14
Considering that Rob is 5'8.25" tall and has previously said his head is 9.5" long then I don't see how Rory can even be 6'5".

he's tall def. a 6"6 but look how tiny his arms are.
avi said on 2/Feb/14
@Rob he isnt a full .75 inch taller than 6'4.4-6'4.5 McPartlin. I think 6'5-6'5'.25 is what you should list him no 6'5.5 is really stretching it (in terms of this site). i mean it just doesnt make sense how Mcpartlin who is not over 6'4.5 is only 1/2 inch to .6 inch shorter. even IF we gave .75 inch difference then 6'5.25 is still generous enough for McCan.
Anon183 said on 1/Feb/14
To me he looks more 6'4 range in these photos, but it could just be because he has a large head, must be 11 inches long?
jimmy said on 1/Feb/14
Clive Russell looked an inch taller in person Rob?
Editor Rob
clive can look nearer 6ft 6 than some guys can, Rory never struck me as a big 6ft 6. Actually there was one guy I met a couple years back who said 6ft 6 and actually was that range, but he dropped 3 inches in a photo so it's useless!
Lorne said on 30/Jan/14
I agre Mangiello is a weaker 6'5, he could be a flat 195cm at night(Rather than 195.58, which is 6ft5.) I think this guy is a more solid 6'5. But with Rob saying he'd be similar to Joe and Ken Kirzinfer, he should really be listed 196cm, since he could(by Rob's own admission) be 195.5...

The first time I saw this guy was on an Iron brew advert, he walked over a grate and it blew his kilt up. I remember thinking he looked big.

@Lorne says on 20/Jan/14
i think he is 6'5-6'5.25 so yeah we are on a similar page!
but the reason why you see people listed sometimes a litte over is because Rob factors in IF they were to stand military posture which isnt entirely because Rob can also stand complete erect too! and also not everyone stands full when measured. for example i used to stand straight but not absolute straight. i remember i got 70 inches at doctors and i measured 70.25 at home (back in early 2009 i think).
Joe Mangiello would probably measure 6'4.8 at worst. both guys are very similar. Even Mcpartlin (as Rob drew lines below) has Rory at maybe a 1/2 taller than him.
Lorne said on 20/Jan/14
I agree Avi, I said 196cm from the start. But if you scroll down, people we're saying to knock off half an inch. I mentioned the 196 challenger, and Rob went down to 197. If Rob went, that would be the next step! Of course that is how listings evolve, and with this guy, he could use a downgrade(based on what Rob said below as well) Really I was just referring to a pattern with many listings, not Rory's specifically. But I'm sticking with 196cm/6ft5.25, with a chance 195.5cm night time. But I promise you he'd edge out a Joe Mangiello...
avi said on 19/Jan/14
@Lorne says on 16/Jan/14
the reason why is because he looks a weak 6'5. also if add it up Rob comes way past his chin which (2 inches or so) so if Rory has a 10.5 inch head which is stretching it, and IF Rob came up to the bottom of the chin then it would be 10.5 inch diffference. Since Rob comes up 2 inches above it AND is slouching a tad, which I wont even factor in, 10.5 - 2 = 8.5 inch difference. 68 + 8.5 = 76.5 which is 6'4.5. so as you see 6'5 is a very fair listing. Ali Baba has a point he can look 6'4 range but obviously it may be too low to call him in the 6'4.5 range.
issa said on 19/Jan/14
Rob,do you think he would be edged out by Ken Kirzinger.
Editor Rob
I think they could look quite similar in person, it could be they are much closer than just half inch.
issa said on 18/Jan/14
Rob,do you think he would edge out Ken Kirzinger.
Editor Rob
I think Ken looks 6ft 5, Rory looks that range more than how 6ft 6 men can look.
Balrog said on 18/Jan/14
Rob you think he would edge out Manganiello?
Editor Rob
tough one, I've given him 6ft 5.5 but he can look just 6ft 5. I would say he might edge joe out if measured, but there probably isn't really much in it.
Lorne said on 16/Jan/14
Thank you, Rob! Between 6'5 and 6'6 is fine. What's funny, is now everyone is insisting 6'5 flat. I swear, you could drop him to 194, and people would insist he is 6ft3:)
Moke said on 13/Jan/14
I haven't been on this site for months now. I have the feeling that the actors are getting taller and taller ; ) I mean this dude is not much taller than 6'4''
avi said on 11/Jan/14
@Rob
Thanks for uploading...Yeah its very small. Must be half inch difference. If Ryan is really a legit 6'4.5 then Rory could be 6'5.2 but I really think a strong 6'5 is a better fit. I think he'd be like Kurt Kurtznger height.
Editor Rob
he could be similar to Ken, around 6ft 5 mark, I doubt early 40's he lost height.
avi said on 10/Jan/14
@Rob
So I think 6'5 would be generous enough for him. Can you get a pic of 6'4.5 guy like Ryan mcpartlin and see if this guy has a solid half inch on Ryan by comparing the 2 photos?
Editor Rob
I think it
this is close, I know Ryan has about a cm more hair in comparison to Rory so I'd say he appears a bit taller.
brotha said on 10/Jan/14
Difference in eye level is an easy 10 inches. Guys saying only 6'4" are whack.
avi said on 10/Jan/14
@[Editor Rob: he looks pretty similar in person to the challenger but he has more of a solid 10 inch head than the challenger.]
OK so he is 8.5 inches taller than you? You come 2 inches above his chin and let's assume his head is 10.25 so if say he really is 6'4.5 weak 6'5
Editor Rob
in person I think he can look around 6ft 5...but then a guy like clive russell actually looked taller than rory did, but he has a slimmer figure which can always help.
Mathew said on 9/Jan/14
[Editor Rob: he looks pretty similar in person to the challenger but he has more of a solid 10 inch head than the challenger.]
---
If they look similar in person I can believe 6'5.5". The challenger does appear taller than any 196 cm guy on this site that I've seen in his photo, but I think usually a 6'5" range guy won't stand as tall as challenger 15 did in a photo with someone much shorter.
Lorne said on 9/Jan/14
But Remember Baba, this guy has a very large head, and Rob is a tad over 5'8. With that said, I don't see 6'6 either, but I doubt he'd be less than 196. Rob, you said he can look 6'5 range, and he certainly doesn't look taller than the 196cm challenger, 6ft5.5's closer, IMHO.
Editor Rob
he looks pretty similar in person to the challenger but he has more of a solid 10 inch head than the challenger.
Barry 178 said on 8/Jan/14
Assuming it is about 8 inches from Rory's lower lip to the top of his head he "only" looks to have 8-8.5 inches on Rob here, which would put him in the 6-4 to 6-4.5 range, was it possible he was slouching? Granted his head might be 10-10.5 inches but I don't seem him taller than 6-4.5
Ali Baba said on 7/Jan/14
Yes. He seems to look 6'4" with Rob. Could be a tad over that, but does not look the 6'6"listening, or even 6'5" to me.
avi said on 6/Jan/14
@Rob
If his head is 10.5 let's say could be 10.2 of course, you come about 2 inches above chin right to his lip. Wouldn't this be like a 8.5 difference at worst?? So 6'4.5? I think he's 6'5 but the numbers don't add. You come well above his chin. Plus you can stand a tad straighter too!
@Ali baba
That's too low . Are you saying you agree he's 6'4ish? Its not that crazy I guess as Rob seemed to be 8.5 shorter. I think 6'5 is right.
Balrog said on 6/Jan/14
I gotta say he looks way different here than in Game of Thrones!
Lillo thomas said on 6/Jan/14
He looks 6'4 max in both pics. I don't see 9-10 inches between rob and rory. Is tough to see the guy taller than 6'4.5 based in both pics.
Tim said on 6/Jan/14
6 ft 4.25 is my guess
Pleb said on 6/Jan/14
To be honest the only worthy thing of Braveheart is the moving music and therefore I would consider a success. Thankfully I can enjoy the soundtrack without watching
Mel Gibson flash his hairy thighs.
Mathew said on 6/Jan/14
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 4/Jan/14
Dude looks barely 6ft4.
---
Yeah the more I look at it the more he looks 6'4". Maybe 6'4.5" at most. But I'm guessing he'd measure a bit taller.
Ali Baba said on 5/Jan/14
I agree with Rampage on this one.
Balrog said on 5/Jan/14
Rampage, look Rob next to McPartlin, listed at 6'4.5'' looks very similar to McCann next to Rob, I see 6'5'' on McCann not sure on the extra half inch but don't know if Rob has footwear advantage?
James said on 5/Jan/14
Yeah he does not look 6'5.5 with rob. Did you have bigger shoes than him rob?
Editor Rob
there wasn't much shoe difference, I do think his head is a little over 10 inches.
Pleb said on 5/Jan/14
@maximus You may have investment in Paramount Pictures or 20th Century Fox, I certainly don't. In fact I found Braveheart to be quiet a bore contrary to what the media tried to drum in me. To each his own.
dmeyer said on 5/Jan/14
The top head Is at mouth about 8" taller 6'4
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Jan/14
Dude looks barely 6ft4.
Balrog said on 4/Jan/14
Comparing him with Ryan McPartlin he does seems an inch taller next to Rob, 6'5" is possible too.
Tommo said on 4/Jan/14
No way he looks 6'3, doesn't look 6'6 either though. Would he edge out challenger 15 do you think Rob?
maximus said on 4/Jan/14
We got
Mel Gibson for William Wallace and it became a huge success despite Mel being shorter than the claimed height of the original Wallace something like 6'5" to 7'....some actors are just made to play the role...like Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs.
Alex 6ft 0 1/8 said on 4/Jan/14
His head does look 10.5 inch range and because of that he looks at least 6'5.
avi said on 3/Jan/14
A 6ft man would probably reach his eye line area maybe close to eyebrows so 6'5.2 is probable
Luke Skywalker said on 3/Jan/14
He Looks 6'3" beside Rob.
Editor Rob
well he's not quite that short!
Pleb said on 2/Jan/14
I would imagine this is the impression William Wallace would had given, instead we got
Mel Gibson.
Connor 184cm said on 2/Jan/14
Id say he's 197cm barefeet, the full 6ft 6 with shoes on is probable would you agree rob?
Sam said on 2/Jan/14
Definitely looks close to 6'5" even here. He looks close to my height (although he's got a stockier build and a lot more hair LOL) not 6'6". Next to Joffrey, et al. on GOT he often gives the impression of 6'5" range as well, not taller. Thought he was 6'6" or bigger back in Hot Fuzz.
berta said on 2/Jan/14
hi rob have you seen the swedish original of the movie " the girl with the dragon tatoo" , the millenium movies?. How tall do you think the actor that plays the big evil guy is? I have reagf 198 and 199 and in an interview they said he was 2 meter. Thanks
Frank said on 2/Jan/14
Easyly 6´5" and perhaps 6´6" in a very good day ;)
yalo said on 1/Jan/14
rob 6'5.5 is spot on!
avi said on 1/Jan/14
@Rob
One thing that always seems to puzzle me...if his head is around 10.5 long, and you are 9.5 shorter than him why do come well above his chin? You come like 2.5 inches above it. And let's say there's a slight margin of error so 2 inches. Wouldn't he be more 6'4.5? I think he's 6'5 but I'm just wondering.
Mathew said on 1/Jan/14
He looks 6'4.5", maybe 6'5" in the photos. However I can believe 6'5.5". The full 6'6" seems unlikely though.
Tim said on 1/Jan/14
Gave a 6'4.5" impression when i saw the pic
James said on 1/Jan/14
Rob looks like u have met Bigfoot :)
sigge said on 1/Jan/14
Doesnt look 6'6 to me. A solid 6'5.
Tommo said on 16/Dec/13
Rob did you get a photo when you saw him? And if not do you think you'll get a chance to at a future con? Always looks massive, saw photos of him and
Jason Momoa at a comic con in Florida and he looked easy 2 inches taller, if not more.
Editor Rob
yes, but they have gone awol somewhere in the house before scanning them!
arbroath said on 2/Sep/13
I know rory, he's 6'6" for def's as my brother is smaller than him and my bro is 6'5". I knew rory when he was 4'2" so he's just a bit taller now
cd said on 16/Jul/13
Rob how come he's still listed as 6ft 6 if you think he's more 6ft 5?
Editor Rob
he can look 6ft 5-6 range but could measure 6ft 6.
Ngrganto said on 4/Jun/12
In some scenes he looks like he's not even a full head taller than jack gleeson ( 170cm , 5'7 ) which would make him like in 6'2-6'3 range , i know he's not that short it must be just the angles of camera or something. Think he's 198cm ( 6'6 ) on the spot probably drops to 197 ( 6'5.5 ) at night.
Editor Rob
I did see Rory earlier this year. I believe he's a 6ft 5 range guy.

Rory and Conan make me feel like I need to be taller... And I'm 195.5 in the morning with my tennis shoes. I wish I ate Porage Oats when I was growing up! Honestly, McCann is my ideal height. Not TOO tall if you've got the build for it!
I bet Conan makes Rory wish he was 7 feet!

Doesn't look THAT short next to Conan Stevens in 'Game of Thrones' - Stevens is 7'. Guy is definitely 6'6.
SOPHIE said on 23/Sep/07
I saw Rory in Starbucks - Glasgow, 5 years ago (not usually starstruck but he made an impression). Rory IS really tall , my husband is 6 foot 2 and Rory is definitely taller and may I say ;-)even better looking than on tv...
Rastus said on 14/Nov/06
Yes, saw this guy playing golf a couple of months ago and he's definitely this height. He's also so brawny that he looks quite chunky on his own, then he stands beside someone else and you realise just how big he is.
