This question took me down a bit of a rabbit hole. I had completely forgotten about the family FGTeeV. Their current videos are clearly made by much taller kids than they were when I first saw them. It’s sort of cool to look back at a time capsule every now and then.
Channels and their creators grow while people get older. Interests change but there is an alternative to staying the same forever: stagnation. I am happy that they are able to continue in a form that is authentic and interesting to them rather than forcing to adhere to a formula from years ago.

The big unsolved mystery of the fitness corner of YouTube (along with other great mysteries like What’s in Greg Doucette’s secret sauce? and Is Noel Deyzel a robot?) can remain a mystery for all eternity and we’d never be wiser for it.

Toph Beifong's height is never officially confirmed in 'Avatar: The Last Airbender.' However, she appears to be shorter than her peers, leading fans to speculate she around 5 feet tall.

She is around 145 cm (4’9”) tall. Another rare characteristic of hers as one of the main characters. As a powerful thousand-year-old-plus mage, she’d naturally be imposing. But she isn’t. That contrast is part of her charm, as well as part of the themes of the story. The anime frequently makes use of her height in scenes where she is alone, like for example when she is searching through grimoires or gazing up at the sky. Official stats simply confirm what one can already tell by looking at the artwork.

For those that don’t know, Vin Diesel is 6 feet tall. I’m assuming that’s how they’d measure up Dominic Toretto too. How tall he is doesn’t really matter. The guy must be able to bench press a refrigerator whilst delivering the speech about family. The Fast & Furious films are all about spectacle. That’s why Dom is how he is – a force of nature that you wouldn’t measure in centimeters. A tornado isn’t a thing that you’d measure in centimeters.

One could argue that his height does not matter because his true stature is measured in ounces of liquor. The man is of great volume not height. Only the height of his glass matters, is it high or low. That will tell you his state of mind and the chances of success for any given plan.
A full glass indicates calm, control, a plan unfolding satisfactorily. An empty glass or one pouring over indicates distress, things unraveling, near collapse. Perhaps we should be measuring Sunnyvale’s stability with Julian-analysis instruments calibrated to the Sunnyvale drinkometer rather than with cumbersome tape measures and a variety of other anthropometric instruments. Food for thought.

Try tweeting the author or artist of the piece you’re discussing. They might respond to a random and polite question. I wouldn’t get my hopes up but it’s worth a shot. Framing your query as a curiosity about the artist’s design process rather than a request for information that they’ve not provided can elicit a thoughtful response. For example: ‘Love your work! Was wondering if you had a specific height in mind for Notti Osama or is that more a feeling that you were after?’ If they do respond, be sure to let us know.

The History of The Hobbit, a massive compilation of drafts and notes by Tolkien, does not give an exact height for Thorin but describes parameters for the Dwarves that are consistently adhered to throughout his work. In the early drawings by Tolkien himself of the Dwarves, they are depicted as being quite short. This is his authorial intention and so is the ‘closest’ to an answer for their height that we have.
A film would perhaps choose to make the leader of the thirteen dwarves the tallest of the lot to signify his status. That would be a choice though, intended to serve the purposes of the film. Tolkien used prose to bring out the individual personalities of the dwarves in the book, so the ‘real’ height of the dwarves is that of the book, but the ‘effective’ height of them in films and plays is a choice that serves the medium’s purposes. Knowing the source material and the reasons for changes helps one appreciate a character’s transition from one medium to another.

Great reminiscence! Magnús Scheving is 183 cm tall and therefore very fit, in a way he is Sportacus. The character was conceived by Scheving who has a fit lifestyle based on his athletic background and his own fitness philosophy. His daily routine at the Magnús Magnusson Studio, where Vikings was recorded, consisted of rehearsed and spontaneous actions and of constant movement and activity.
Together with the movement of play, Magnús likely got different kinds of training. His diet was also strict but included a lot of whole food which gave him plenty of energy to keep going all day long. His genetic predisposition to be tall and athletic, his lifelong involvement in sports and his job as Sportacus all combined to make him the fit man he is today.

I believe there is a lot of confusion between the book and show canon. In the books, Grey Rohan is never given a height. However in the show, Grey Rohan is literally Jason Momoa, who is 6'4". So this would be the answer to the question in terms of show canon. For book canon however, we have to interpret the descriptions. 'Tower above other men' suggests he is well over 6 feet tall. And since Westeros and Essos are supposed to be below the average height of modern times, then 6'4" would indeed be a giant. So in both cases, his height in the show is consistent with the books. Therefore whether you are a book reader or a show watcher, you can confidently imagine Grey Rohan to be 6'4".
