Welcome to another Hermitcraft blog post! Last time I compiled a list of every Hermit's birthday dates and ages... So let's do their heights now!
No, they are not 2 blocks tall. And yes, they are *real* persons. So if you aren't prepared to see non-blocky persons, read my Hermits Face Reveal blog post first! :D
For easy reference, this blog post will be organised as follows:
How do I estimate their heights?
These numbers are not the official statement given by the Hermits. This list is based on my *totally legit detective work*, detailed below.
First, I used a Hermit as the point of reference. Mumbo and Doc claimed to be 1.95m (6'5) tall and... no argument needed LOL!
Second, photo comparison. One can easily judge the height differences when they are close to each other.
I work in the architectural field, where part of my job scope is to create 3D models of buildings based on photos *alone.* So you can say I have an eye for estimating and extracting dimensions!
Finally, a more reliable standard of measurement is the head height. On average, a head is 20cm high. I'll do the Maths for you Americans: it's 0.20m long, or 8 inches (the precise figure is 7.874 inches).
Without further ado, allow me to present my detective work:
Hermits' Heights based on Photos
Mumbo, Doc, Grian
Mumbo and Doc are both 1.95m (6'5) tall.
Our Poultry Man, Grian looks one head shorter than Doc... probably a tad bit more. This suggests he's around 1.70 - 1.74m (5'7 to 5'8.5) tall.
Their heights are further confirmed in the latest photo of Hermitcraft's Charity Stream for Gamer Outreach in 2024:
JoeHillsTSD, Gemini Tay, False Symmetry, Pearlescentmoon
For easier comparison, I'll just use the Hermits at the front row and arrange them in ascending order:
Gem (1.65m, 5'5) < Grian = Joe (1.70m, 5'7) < False (1.75m, 5'9).
Here's another height comparison that clarifies our estimation:
And the only Australian in the group, Pearl... oh my Pearl!!! Why are you so tall?! This Aussie is easily one head taller than Gem, putting Pearl at a staggering range of 1.85m - 1.89m (6'1 - 6'2.5)!
I've lived in Australia for a quite some time and I can testify that the down unders are just built different LOL.
Team ZITS: Zedaph, ImpulseSV, Tango Tek and Skizzleman
After a closer look at the photos, their heights in ascending order would be Tango < Impulse < Zedaph < Cub < Skizz. Their height difference doesn't seem to be great either... Probably 0.25m to 0.5m?
I think it's safe to assume our Dungeon Master, Tango is slightly below 1.75m, his buddy Impulse just above 1.75m, and the other buddy Zedaph around 1.80m (5'11).
What about Skizzleman, the latest addition to Hermitcraft SMP? It's evident he's the tallest among the group... he's almost a head taller than Tango. He's 1.90m tall for sure.
I need a photo of all the giants together!!!
We need to thank Gem for her constant vlogs! Here's a screenshot that solidifies Pearl and Skizz's shared height:
At this stage, we've had a few photos verifying our height estimation work. Let's keep going!
Scar, GoodTimesWithScar and Cubfan135
Scar, our terraformer claimed he is 1.80m (5'11) tall. Even though he's in a wheelchair, he's already two-thirds of Skizz. I'd say 1.80m height is a safe figure.
Check out his video where Scar claimed he's approximately 6 foot tall... or 1.80m.
With Cub in between Impulse and Skizz, I'd say he's approximately 1.80m (5'11). And surprise... I have another more reliable photo evidence!
Here, you can see Cub, Impulse and Tango standing in front of a concrete block wall. Concrete blocks are typically 0.19m high; adding grout thickness will make them 0.20m high per unit.
If our Horn Master, Cub were to hug the wall, his head would be the same line as a concrete block unit. Which means his height is at least 1.80m (5'11)!
Using Cub as our new reference height...
Joel, Smallishbeans and Rendog
We have three confirmed Hermit heights in this photo above, making it easier to determine Joel's (SmallishBeans) height: 1.70m to 1.74m.
After hours of scouring through the Internet *I think I need help, halpppp* here's another group photo:
Hermitcraft's first King, Ren is slightly shorter than Cub, therefore around 1.75m (5'9) tall.
Note:
This photo also shows Iskall and Stress, who left the server in Season 10. Using Cub and Ren as the reference, Iskall and Stress are about 1.75m and 1.65m tall respectively.
The big eyes and big mouth of Hermitcraft, Keralis and BDoubleO100
Surprise, surprise... these two had vlogs of hanging out with Doc! Here are some screenshots:
They are about one head shorter than Doc, who is 1.95m tall. This indicates that Bdubs and Keralis are at least 1.75m (5'9) tall.
iJevin, Vintage Beef, Welsknight, and Xisumavoid
Jevin looks pretty tall! I couldn't find him with other Hermits, so I'm assuming his height is 1.80m to 1.85m (5'11 to 6'2.5).
Here we have Beef posing next to his llama(?):
Jokes aside, that's a 488 Ferrari. A quick Google informs us that this sports car is about 1.2m high (or 47.8 inches).
Using the proportions exercise, the vehicle is almost two-thirds of Beef's height. Do the maths and it'll put Beef at least 1.80m tall. Scour through his Instagram to see it for yourself!
Next, we have a snippet of Wels in one of his vlogs:
A kitchen countertop is typically 0.85m to 0.90m high. A man's body is usually the same height from the waistline. I'd say Wels is between 1.75m to 1.79m (5'9 to 5'10.5) tall.
We also have fan photos on Reddit confirming Wels' and other Hermits' heights.
Xisuma sure is shy when it comes to his face... but he'd revealed his body!
Okay, that sounded wrong.
He shared videos of him jamming the guitar... And my goodness look at that bod--height! I said height!!
The average window sill height is 0.9 meters. The top of the window is probably 2.0m. A quick proportion test tells us the top of his head is easily twice that of the window sill, though still shorter than the window.
My educated guess is our admin Xisuma stands at 1.90m (6'3) tall... and Xisuma himself also stated so!
Here's the tricky section of the blog post: Hermits who never reveal their IRL selves...
Hypnotizd, EthosLab, xBCrafted, and Zombie Cleo
I swear I've seen *only one* photo of Hypno with a fan but unfortunately couldn't track it down. From memory, Hypno is almost similar to Jevin, putting him at a minimum of 1.80m.
Etho, xB and Cleo are the only Hermits who have yet to reveal their faces... and we're here to respect their privacy!
For the sake of this blog post, here are their self-proclaimed heights:
Cleo and xB (1.70m - 1.74m, 5'7 - 5'8.5) < Etho (1.80m - 1.89m, 5'11 - 6'2.5) < Hypno (more than 1.90m, 6'3)
All the sources are provided at the end of the article.
Did the rest of the Hermits mention their Heights before?
Yes, the majority of them do! There's a thread on Tumblr keeping track of Hermits mentioning their height (it's a Google Doc); I've had a peek and am proud to say their findings tally with my guesses!
