Are you taller than Meat Loaf?

RSG · 27 Aug 2010, 13:09

I dunno how I found this. 2 things you always hear about Meat in a casual conversation is his voice, and weight. But never did I ever think there would be such a lengthy page just about his height!

previously I had read that he was 6ft but hey who knows

does it really matter at the end of the day?

All that does matter is that the lungs are functioning, he's healthy and that he wants to and can sing/perform

OMG - what a worldshaking discussion

Rage Against · 27 Aug 2010, 14:59

I rather prefer this discussion to the one that's happening on the Another New Album thread!

Couch Potato · 27 Aug 2010, 16:25

I must say, I have never met Meat, however, back in 1999 I was stood about 30 feet from Meat Loaf (My mum used to work at Sheffield Arena), but I was not allowed to approach him (not Meat, arena security) I was 16, and Im just a shade under 5'9, and I can say Meat was not much bigger than me - I would say 5'10 1/2 to 5'11 - I was sort of shocked as I always imagined this giant man being 6'6 and over. Then when we saw him 2008 at Caslte Howard (not harewood house) My partner (we were at the front) could not beleive how 'short' Meat is. Saying that, John must be quite short, and most of the band, because I dont think many of them are taller than Meat. I once met Kelly Jones of Welsh band The Stereophonics, and he must be 5'4" at the most. I hate being short

A Slice Of English · 27 Aug 2010, 18:45

Well, if these height estimates are correct, then no, I am not taller.

Yes. I'm 6ft. So he must be??????

As we all know you shrink when you get older. However your appendage seems to get much bigger with time. Or is it just poor eyesight.

Yes the intelligence of the "I love the Patrick concept album" vs. the "What Patrick concept album" over and over is stagnating my medulla oblongata.
