Bubba Smith, towering at an exact 6ft 7 (200.7 cm), was a colossal presence in American football as a defensive end and later as an actor. His immense height defined his dominance on the gridiron, where he terrorized quarterbacks for Michigan State and NFL teams like the Baltimore Colts, earning All-American honors and a spot in the College Football Hall of Fame.
In Hollywood, Smith's staggering 6ft 7 frame perfectly embodied the gentle giant Moses Hightower in the iconic Police Academy film series, leveraging his size for memorable comedic roles that highlighted his intimidating yet lovable stature.
