~ Jordan Peterson
World-renown professor of psychology, Jordan Peterson is known especially for his lectures that have inspired many young people to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. Besides that, he has a deep personality that attracts people to him and makes them listen to his words. The gist of his philosophy is: "It is important to know that life is suffering, but even more important to know that one can transcend suffering through finding meaning and adopting responsibility."
About Jordan Peterson's Height
Where height is concerned, Professor Jordan Peterson is a tall and good-looking man, who probably came into this kind of limelight when his doctored photo with Ben Shaprio surfaced on the internet -- where Mr. Peterson appeared to dwarf Ben Shaprio really good. It was obviously done for laughs because Ben Shaprio is short but not that short.
Anyway, Mr. Peterson had claimed to be 6'1½" tall in the past but now only says that he is 6'1". It is entirely possible that now closer to his sixties he could have lost half an inch of height due to bad posture.
The height of Jordan Peterson is
6'1" or 185 cm
Height in his prime was 6'1½"

"Adopt responsibility for your own well-being, try to put your family together, try to serve your community, try to seek for eternal truth... That's the sort of thing that can ground you in your life, enough so that you can withstand the difficulty of life."
