"The only person you need to be credible to is yourself. When you stand in front of the mirror and nobody is watching, are you happy with yourself?"
~ Afrojack
Dutch DJ, record producer, and remixer, Nick van de Wall or simply Afrojack is one of the best-known DJs in the world.
Afrojack's height may be shocking to some people -- the man is huge -- taller than you expect a DJ to be. For some reason we don't think of DJs as huge people -- but then there is Afrojack waiting right at the corner.
Seeing Afrojack next to someone like a solid 6-feet-4 inch tall David Hasselhoff makes you realize just how tall Afrojack really is -- but it also makes you suspect that he is not as tall Google and some other websites claim him to be -- 6-feet-10 inches.
Perhaps 6'9" would be a better number for his height -- as it is his own claim -- or perhaps it would not be such a good number after all.
And indeed, after taking a careful look at Afrojack and comparing his height to that of a few other famous people like Calvin Harris (6-feet-5¼ inches), or David Hasselhoff (6-feet-4 inches), we think at best Afrojack looks close to 6-feet-8 inches tall -- at worst, close to 6-feet-7 inches.
It may be possible that his height was measured with shoes on -- that's why it came out an inch higher...
Afrojack's famous height twins would be Tyson Fury and LeBron James.
The real height of Afrojack is
6'7½" or 202 cm

"People need realness, reality. People can sense when someone is being pretentious or fake. It's because you feel it; you see it in someone's body language."
