REQUEST #1 Pornchai Sawsri (257 cm claimed) 

In order to estimate the height if P.Sawsri (from knee to top of head) I need size information of at least one of the objects marked with an arrow. Do someone recognize the brand or model of the objects. The objects are: yellow arrow, bottle of water? red arrow: Blue and white can, looks like the brand says “pop”? green arrow: small water bottle, no logo.

pornchai with arrows

UPDATE

(JULY 9th 2021)

So, I did a 3D diorama from the photo above. The small bottle, the giant and the man to the left is included in the diorama. The camera position was estimated using the walls in the background.

Making the bottle 1 unit in height. The height of the man and the giant are 6,46 units and 6,58 units.

So to find out the true height of the man (according to this diorama) the height of the bottle must be known. I guess that the bottle is a 50 cl. The height of the bottle is then multiplied with 6,58 to find out the height of the seated giant.

I also did a rough estimation on the height of the giant if he stood up and also another estimation if hes back would be straight. Please note that these estimations are very very rough. In order to make more accurate estimations further work needs to be done.

    on this photo there is red strawberry fanta (but fanta on thai is more like coca cola). The bottle is 34-33cm because it is 1.75 l
    the biggest water is nestle probably 4l so around 40cm https://hilight.kapook.com/img_cms2/user/natthida/0_2015/Sep/week4/201798.jpg here is another photograph of these brans

      the drink in fanta bootle is in 1,75 L so around 36cm but might be 35,5cm

      i can not send photograph but i send you an link, if you dont want to click you can search him laying down, search “pornchai sawsri” and there is phot him laying on bed where some things are around

      1. greg72180's avatar

        yup the bigger one bootle of water is 6l and it is about 47 cm sorry for so much messages

  8. Height Detective's avatar

    Yes. I have seen the image where he is laying down. But it is so hard to work on since the perspective is bad. I think that in order to work with that one we need to find the model of the bed he is laying in.

      Hm it isnt easy to found his model of bed and also i spend hour of finding height of water and soda its around 40cm, also the men around him on that photo looks like 170cm, them he looks like 8 ft 5 as he claimed, also if you could find height of him laying down on bed from that side it would be awesome, remember also that soda is 2l so around 39cm

  9. Height Detective's avatar

    Hi. I clicked the link https://mgronline.com/local/detail/9580000109061
    and now I see that there is more photos of the bed and table (with sodas). That makes it easier. I¨ll try!

      hi there, so you know his tall?

  10. Height Detective's avatar

    Hi. No, I’m currently stuck. I will try later in a couple of days. The images are not easy to work with.
    Actually, when looking at more and more pictures of him, I tend to doubt the 257 cm claim. Looks more like 2,30-2,35 at most. There is images of him getting a bicycle and sitting with a lot of people. In these pictures he does not seem that tall.

      Yup as i said before he was in 2013 236cm but i think he could be 240 but i dont know, i also added few more things to my wiki

      i think he could be at death around 248, in 2013 he was measured as 236 i can send you video if you need, also 1 month later he got an bicycle from some doctors and at death when he claimed to be 268 he could be 248, also i think thai said that he patient was 257 but in reality around 235 or 236, they could write 21cm taller on his card that his real height, also he was looking taller at death than in 2013, another example “Vikas Uppal”, he was reported once to be 250 but later 268, in reality he was around 248, so 20cm, it is an theory about his tall so an visual 3D would be awesome

    Hi I’m very happy and flattered of your approval of my work. But to be honest, I’m afraid that I need more time on this one. I am not even sure if i will be able to make this one. It is going to be very hard. Right now, I don’t have so much time, being busy with other things in life. But I will write you a notice as soon as I make it, IF i make it. Thank you for your understanding and with that being said I promise to deliver more 3D works and posts in the future.

    in my opinion Rogan looks here closer to 7 ft 10 than 8 ft 6

      so sorry for this message.

    Hi. The image is not good for estimating his height. The picture of him seated in a chair is probably better. If we can find the dimensions of that specific chair, Sometimes I look for these kind of objects on Ebay.
    I would love to join your fandom, but I have trouble finding out how I do that, could you perhaps send a link?

    Hello! Could You Estimate The Height Of John William Rogan He Claimed 264 CM Tall

  28. XeoN's avatar

    Hello.
    Are you able by any chance to estimate giant John Turner?
    There were several medical reports conflicting his real height
    One says 7 feet 3 in (221.0cm), other 7 ft 7 in (231.1cm), and most extreme one claims 8 ft 3 in (251.4cm). My opinion is that he was closer to 7 ft 7 inches than 8 feet 3 inches, but I would have hard time believing he was only 7 ft 3 in, corrected height assuming spinal curvature. I think you can use this photo https://web.archive.org/web/20151023030913/http://www.thetallestman.com/images/johnturner/johnturner%20(3).jpg as estimation. Thank you.

    Could you do one on John william rogan the second tallest man?? Their are only about 4 pics of him ….all in a sitting position

    1. Height Detective's avatar

      Hi. It should be possible to estimate Rogans height using the photo of him seated in a chair. Doing a series of 3D models of Rogan in seated position, and then measuring the same models in standing position, an average value of the ratio of chair vs standing height could be used as an indication of Rogans height assuming the chair is of standard height. From this, an even more accurate estimation could be done if we could identify the exact model of the chair that Rogan is sitting on. Remember that there are dimensions of Rogans body parts listed in the medical exam that´s reachable through the archived http://www.thetallestman.com. There is also a photo of his hands next to a ruler. All this information could be useful. Right now I am very busy raising a family, writing on a music album and also doing some work that we’ll be published on this site later this year. So I am not able to do this work in a while. Thank you and have a great day /Heightdetective.

    Good job, I also think Saosri is more in the 7″9″ max, two Giants that i would like to see in future in this website if you have time are John W.Rogan(267cm) and Ho Van Trung(257cm) even if I think that Trung was more in the 250cm range and 254cm/8’4″ at max whit corrected height.

      Hi. I recogniced your user name from the site findagrave where a user with the same name as you has uploaded never seen photographs of John F. Carroll and Bernard Coyne. I suppose that the person is you. Great job! I am planning on a follow up on the Buffalo Giant post on my site. I have noticed that one of the photographs is of John F. Carroll sitting on a bench on the observation deck on Empire State Building. Finding out the dimensions of some details in the photo, a new estimate of Carroll can be made. Do you know when the photo was shot? Is it okay with you that I publish the photo on my blog on a forthcoming post on Carroll? Do you have the photo in greater resolution than on findagrave. Do you have more photos of John F. Carroll? Thank you and have a great day.
