I'm 6′ 4” and weighed around 104 kilos when I was competing. Now I'm 120 kilos, which for me, is terrible.

He could pass for 195cm in his prime at times Rampage, perhaps it was a morning rowing measurement..

Rob, could Pinsent and Foster also get added?
Pinsent at 6ft5½ and Foster 6ft3¼ makes sense. I posted a clip where Foster claimed to be 191cm and 85kg either on this page or Cracknell's

Rob, could Tim Foster get a page?

At the 8:30 mark he describes himself as the smallest of the bunch at 1.91m and 85kg

Rob, is 6ft4 and change peak a better deal for Steve?

The 195cm listing carries some weight, like maybe at 9-10am. Certainly would've hit 6ft5 out of bed. I'd rate him as a very strong 6ft4. Cracknell is looking much shorter in the above photos but is bending his knees, probably no less than 6ft3½. Pinsent looks 6ft5-6 range for sure (he claims both). The guy between Redgrave and Cracknell, Tim Foster doesn't appear to have a height listed anywhere but I'm gonna guess he's similar to James, over 6ft3 but not quite 6ft4

Editor RobI think I'd stick around 6ft 4, though of course there may be a greater chance of over it than under!

I'd say 6ft4 on the nose today is fair, not sure if he'd be less than that...

Actually think he is less than 6'4 these days. Did meet him a few years back and I didn't feel dwarfed by him. It was early morning so I would be about 184 cm and 186 cm with work shoe.

That's 1.5cm which is a fraction. If we're gonna get uber-precise...
Peak: 194-195cm
Today: 193-194cm

He's 54, I doubt would have lost more than a fraction but possible with the wear and tear form hard rowing and training. If he measured 195 barefoot I think it might have been a morning boathouse measurement or something before rowing, out of bed I think he'd have cleared 6'5 though.

Arch maybe 195cm peak and 193-194cm range today? Maybe not quite a full 6ft5 though except in the morning.

I can well believe the 195cm measurement sometime in the morning peak, but the 196cm 6'5 is too high. Strong 6'4 range is what he looks, though at times poor posture can look 6'4 tops.

@Jessman, exactly what I guessed him at, do we know if he got a 6'3 and .5 or 75 measurement or did it just read "192cm"?

Redgrave was shorter than Jeremy Clarkson in 2008, so this looks right. Clarkson was probably still 6'5" then. And he has since shrunk to match Redgrave.

Just came across a group photo from a celebrity golf event on google images. Redgrave is in the photo, between swimmer Mark Foster (6'6) and Peter Jones (6'7). Redgrave looks a decent 6'4. There are lots of other well known celebs in tbis group photo. Not sure how to upload on here but a google image search of Redgrave and Foster will get you there.

Watched one of Cracknell's extreme marathon programmes a year or two ago and he was measured at 192cm so high 6'3 as Arch Stanton has said. Redgrave always looked a bit taller than Cracknell so I teckon Rob has it correct at 194cm. Maybe a max peak of 195cm. He tends to slouch a lot so loses a bit in photographs but when he straightens he can come close to Pinsent. Pinsent is a strong 196cm for me, maybe reached 197cm on a good day?

Editor Rob the 192 is believable, not quite a big 6ft 4 guy.

Rob, would you consider adding Pinsent and Cracknell? They are sort of our Olympic legends, and both are often sene on BBC commentating now. What would you guess for Cracknell? I'd give him 6'3.75 possibly. He can look 6'4 at times time but others more 6'3 range. A little under 6'4 might be accurate? He claims 6'4, but maybe that's a morning height...

Editor Rob maybe...I think a weak 6ft 4 range for Cracknell is possible 6ft 3.5-3.75 zone.

You're right, in some photos Pinsent can certainly look 1.5 inches taller than 6'6 Click Here Perhaps he is Gotz Otto sort of height. I wonder though if Steve is approaching the age now where he's starting to lose height though, he can look 6'4 flat at times. Peak though this is the lowest he really could have been I think.

Editor Rob steve might have lost a fraction by now. Pinsent has a reasonable sized head for his height, so he can appear a bit shorter I think proportionally.

@Rob, I dunno a lot of the pics I saw I wouldn't have put Pinsent at near 6'6 Click Here In photos like that I'd have thought nearer 196cm. Either way it's obvious that Pinsent is not under 6'5, I'm just not sure he's 6'6. 6'5.5 is possible perhaps. Redgrave himself could look 195 at times, 6;4 at others, 6'4.5 seems the best shout.

His wife looks 5ft11.5 range right here, minus the 0.5" footwear advantage. These two are the perfect height for each other in my opinion, since the average woman is about 5" shorter than the average man, give or take.

Rob what would you guess for Pinsent? I don't think he looks 6'6, more a 196cm I think. You could argue 6'5-6'5.25 range I think.

Editor Rob I think he's over 6ft 5, probably in the nearly 6ft 6 zone.

With legit 6'4 Flintoff looks taller Click Here though has camera advantage there and we can't see footwear.

Cheers Rob, seems right. Doesn't look a full 6'5 but 6'4 and change, though at times loose posture can look barely 6'4. Cracknwell is more high 6'3 range though I think.

Editor Rob I think he could look 6ft 4.5 range most of the time, sometimes a bit less, maybe even a bit more. I don't know if Pinsent is 6ft 6, he can look 1-1.5 inches taller at times compared to Redgrave though!
