No way McGuinness is 6'2. McGuinness is shorter than Adams who is approx the same height as Tony Blair (who's a confirmed 6ft). You'll see Adams quoted as 6'2 in places but I reckon that's b/s. Sure, I've even seen Paisley listed at 6'5 so it must be a Northern politician thing across the board to exaggerate height.

I'd say McGuinness is prob 6ft or less. Doherty however is a pretty tall fella regardless.

I stood close to Adams and McGuinness once, by accident, at a Shinners conference in my local hotel.Adams is about 6'3" and McGuinness is about 6'2". Doherty towers over McGuinness. He must be 6'6"

Unusual then for all three of Blair, McGuinness and Adams to all be under-quoted.

Didn't know they could pile sh1t so high (Blair that is).

Or Ally Dick is over-estimating his height. The average way an Irish man guesses his height - he asks his friend. Friend says 6 ft, so he is 6ft 2. Friend is actually 5'10''

Yeah, imagine that, having the cheek to stand next to one of the worlds greatest conmen, he's too small to stand in a room with Obama I suppose. :rolleyes:

IcedOut

He is as tall as he wants to be because he gonna be the preseident

ejmaztec

The question should have been "How short is Michael D?".:P

Daith

He's just very far away.

saa

I was minding the little fella before, I lost him twice in the crowd, its easy to do.

Basically I'm 5"3 and he was at about my shoulder.

Yahew

Give Frodo a call he'll definitely know.

There seems to be a disproportionate amount of below average height male politicos in the Dail. Napoleon syndrome? Though contrary to popular old Napoleon was above average height for the time(5'7"), that was just the usual English propaganda. Nelson on the other hand could have been a stunt double for seven of the leads on a live action remake of Snow White.

Michael D? Having stood beside the chap in the past, if he's 5'4" I'm 6'4" and I'm not.

Ya get a bobble-head Michael D., I think.

But he's the right man for the job and that's what matters.

Napoleon was 5'7 or the average height was 5'7?

His height is a state secret and will never be known as there are no rulers short enough to measure him.

Dotrel

I imagine his small size may lead to slightly less fuel consumption on the Presidential Jet.

He's already helping the country out of recession.

Michael "Wee" Higgins is 5ft 4in according to The Irish Times.

If he wore Bonos shoes thatd make him about 6ft I reckon.

The poor man broke his hip last year so leave him alone! He about same height as dana and norris! He was once a tallish man but you can't help old age making an appearance!

We all go short at some stage! Best person and most intelligent of all the candidates to win despite routing for gallagher, higgins came a close second for me!
