  • Humans generally aren’t the biggest of the bunch, a normal man would be around 5-6 ft in height or 150-180cm for the metric loving world. But in the grim dark, there are mutants that have grown bigger and those that have grown shorter on average than a regular person. Then there are also huge cyborgs as well as trnashumans, So here in this video we will showcase to you the 20 tallest humans in 40K, at least the ones that haven’t been corrupted by Chaos, or at least at the point that they haven’t yet turned to the ruinous powers.

    I refuse to accept that Tyberos is just an astartes that happened to be larger than every other that's existed. They've made a point to establish that he moves at incredible speeds that shouldn't be possible. Faster in his custom armor than other Astartes are while unencumbered. His arms can't be tracked while slashing. He can hide his presence to the point he was mistaken for a statue. And there's the question of his weapons, since they're of such an ancient make, that even the Ad Mech has no idea about them, but they're also clearly for someone of his size.
    There's just way too much about him that doesn't add up.

      For one thing, his Geneseed is what some call “chimera Geneseed”. Half Night Lord and half Raven Guard, which explains his stealth. His claws are theorized by fans to be the ones used by Konrad Kurze or Corvus Corax, hence why they’re made for someone his size. His power? Uh… maybe the chimera Geneseed has side effects???

      Luckily you don't have to accept that he's larger than every other astartes because he isn't. There's exactly one description of his height and it's "a head taller" than other marines. That makes him slightly smaller than a primaris marine. As for his speed, that also comes from one passage that called his weapons a blur while he was fighting - a description that has been used for nearly every marine in 40k.
      It doesn't add up because it's meme lore

This was from the book Death World. I have seen them being listed as taller then stock on the Warhammer 40k wiki but I see no reference. They were referred as "baby ogryns" due to being heavily muscled, perhaps that lead to the wiki thinking that was also meant height. But maybe the book Death World is wrong as well.

    • @80krauser

      The Spess Marines have toilet things done by their armor while they are in it. And I think Gulliman is stuck in his to keep him alive. But otherwise yes they would build him a giant ornate toilet and probably found a dynastic hereditary order to clean up the poop stains and feel they were blessed by the Emperor while doing so.
      Modern presidents have their own toilet detail that follows them and collects their urine and feces to dispose of so other countries don't get it and analyze it. Ancient rulers had personal butt wipers and bath aides to wash their balls. A giant magic super-general who is literally the only thing keeping your civilization alive would well be worth making a super toilet and carry it around.

    The Emperor is probably around 6 feet tall. It's his glamour to depict himself as the primarch sized Emperor. He blended in over the centuries because he could fit in things like hallways, elevators, buses and cars. He rode on his beloved Bucephalus as Alexander the Great and named His Gloriana class ship after the horse. Horses sense things and 14 feet of transhuman would be a definite "nope' in its sensitive mind. You're not riding me buddy lol.
    He could be 6'2" being taller than Malcador and Erda. I would love it if Malcador was taller than Big E. It wouldn't matter because it's his power that has majesty and Malcador owned a mouthy Horus didn't he? Corax could partially see through the Emperor's glamour too and was more casual with him as having a common understanding as beings. The other Primarchs wanted an epic super daddy and drank a lot of kool-aid about the Imperial Truth.

    To all of those saying the E is not that tall read the last Siege book, his size has been cleared up. He is freaking enormous and probably closer to 18 feet tall. When Malcador sees your exact hieght and comments how tall you are after just being with Vulcan it is very clear. He dumbed down his size for others. Lastly he could not dumb down his weight, read the Last Church.

When the blade had been presented to Guilliman by the captain-general of the Adeptus Custodes after the Emperor’s fall, it had somehow fitted his primarch’s stature. Guilliman tried to remember how tall the Emperor was, but His living image refused to be caught and examined. In some memories, He was as tall as Guilliman; in others, no bigger than a mortal man."

    Its sometimes strange how the writers contradict each others. In some of the stories Mortarion is twice the hight of his astartes as they went barely over his belt line. In one of the phoenicians books he rested his arm on the shoulder of a dreadnought. I highly prefer this version where a primarch is over 5 meters tall because it gives them more of the demigod stature like in the movie gods of egypt. Astartes tower head and shoulder over an average human so that a common soldiers hair line is level with the lower edge of the pouldrons - and with Orks being as big if not bigger.
    Why the fuck do Orks now have red blood by the way?
