See when I met Simon he was taller than I expected. I am 5'9" and he towered me...I think he is over 6', because my hubby is 6' and I can look him in the eye when I wear my heels.

then the question is, is he really 6'2" or does he lie about his height. a lot of guys do. i am 6'2" and i can't tell you how many times i have stood next to a guy who was obviously shorter than me, asking if i am 6'5". that is my brother in law's height and trust me, i feel like a midget when i stand next to him. so, maybe simon is really only 6 feet? Could be... I've only see him on stage or in pictures. My husband is 6' 1" and in relation to objects, they seem close, but who can tell a difference couple of inches from a distance? Still, most people would consider 6' 0" to be tall. I really don't think he's under 6'. Or you're right and it's lifts! P.S. I'm only 5' 4", and very jealous of all you beauties in this thread who are 5'9" and taller!

That's pretty funny. Simon actually seemed pretty tall to me when I met him. But then again, most people are tall to me since I'm only 5' ;D.

he's definitely around 6'2... I'm around 6'0 myself, and when I met him last June, he had a inch or two on me for sure. John I think is slightly shorter than him as well.

When I met him in April I thought he would be much taller as well. I think I have built him up so much over the last 26 years of worship that I thought he would be God-like and really huge. Turns out he is human after all!

Uh, let's not be so literal folks, lol. I really think that's simply the writers attempt at humor, because everyone always says, when they meet someone famous whom they've built up in their minds, "I thought you were taller/skinnier/younger/better looking," etc. It's not an actual comment on Simon's height.
