I'm not a critic but what he is doing is very boring and offensive to celebrities..like disputing over Benedict Cumberbatch's height and he is one of my favourite actors.. I don't think this kind of topic is meaningful and not offensive to him although Paul is not commenting very much on someone's other contributes except height.
Lately he made a video where he measured one girl's height and invited her into his interview as a video and in this video he told us the difference between her measured height and her self-reported height for the viewers to know more about what height eventually is.
Am I the only one that think he is a psychopath of height?? I think this guy really needs a shrink in all honesty and everytime I am watching his videos my socks are knocked off by his obsessions with height..

Yeah, I know him. Honestly, I suspect he's just a high-functioning autist with an innocent obsession. As a result, celebheights.com is basically the gold-standard for celebrity height information.

Yeah I agree on what you said and what about the value of we knowing the actual heights of celebrities? And that's why I am always thinking Paul as a psychopath cuz I can't find any other guys as obsessed with heights as him..

I think he just has Aspergers. I have it, too, so I can sympathize.

No, I don't think Asperger's Syndrome patients can link up and have group photos with celebrities so easily LOL.

Pretty amazing for a high-functioning autist to be able to build a website that big.

I don't know what's amazing about an autistic guy being a semi-decent web developer who likes to compile statistics.

I am an Elec. Engineer and very number/stats oriented, i think this is part of my height obsession. I often pause movies and google the actor's heights. I have visited Rob's website compulsorily for many years, my daughter tells all her friends i know the height of any celeb and they often challenge me with the height of celebs way out of my generation lol.

Then you must be kinda knowledgable in human height and mathematics right? I am wondering why people beyond -3SD of the average height don't subject to the normal contribution?

What is this post. In the world of covering celebrities where people try to figure out their sex lives, where they live, stalk them wherever they go etc. I think Robs behavior is an incredibly harmless obsession. I think you are just blowing things out of proportion due to your own complex/insecurities/obsession with height.

Also what the fk does the “psychopath of height” mean. That’s so hilariously overstated it almost sounds like satire. Let’s not throw around these extremely loaded phrases (that are used in an inaccurate way) because your jimmies got russled. A lot of people on this forum are sensitive about their height and I understand that, but this is too far.

People have such a poor understanding of autism and other mental health issues. I mean OP called him a psychopath, which to be clear is not an accepted term in psychology, but still it’s a super inaccurate colloquialism to use.

If anything, I think it would fit with the stereotypes of people with autism being geeky computer guys who have niche obsessions (which is a fair characterization tbh).

I meant that people on here were amazed that, if he did have autism, he could make a website. This was more of the “poor understanding” I was referring too. I think we agree. I could definitely see him being autistic.

Cuz in my eyes, celebrities' heights don't matter at all and it is of no use to have a heated verbal battle with anyone else over how tall or short that or this superstar is and that's why I was shocked by his obsessions with their heights.
But yeah I never said his behaviour is harmful but his latest vid where he asked one random girl about her height and measured her height on spot to judge whether she was telling him true height or not made me simmer with laughters and I was considering him as one guy of bedevilment about height.

Maybe this term 'possession' fits more with his present situations than 'psychopath' but technically speaking I don't think Rob Paul is not radical about height and I think he is having more severe height dysphoria than mine and if my wording is offensive to him then sorry I don't wanna show offense to anybody and I dunno how to avoid offensive wording and express what are on my mind at the meantime.
