How tall are Sangheili and Jiralhanae?
This may seem like a simple question, but I'm not sure.
As a point of reference, the Fall of Reach says that John 117 is approximately 6'10" tall without his armor, and additional five inches or so with his armor on.
I'm ASSUMING that the average Sangheili and John are the same height. I don't recall in the books there ever being a time where an Elite towered over John.
But then what about Brutes? Halo Nation has them at 9' tall, but that's hardly reliable, and I don't recall that from any fiction.
[i]Obviously gameplay doesn't solve this. I'm talking from a canonical perspective, not how tall they were in each game.[/i]

On average it seems that Spartans are 7 feet, Elites are 8 feet and Brutes are 9 feet tall.
-
Elites is 8'6 feet tall. Brutes are probably over 9 feet tall.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] baldeagle24 I think they were like 7'-8' tall. I know M'galekgolo are like 10' standing.[/quote] Both Elites and Brutes are over 8ft and Hunters are 12ft tall.

They are both about 8'6", they are pretty massive.

From what I remember, it's stated: Elites are an average of 8'6 when their backs are erect. Elites are an average of 7'4 when they're hunched over(Like in Halo 2/3.)

Elites canonically and according to other sources are about 8'6. Brutes are known for being bigger than Elites so a safe bet would be at around 9'2. [Edited on 07.26.2011 7:04 AM PDT]

Sangheili are either 7'4" according to the Encyclopedia, or 8'6" according to the CE manual (although this data is falsely attributed to the Bestiarum on Halopedian). Hunters are roughly 12' tall. EDIT: Derp got confused by the post above, Jiralhanae are 9'2" according to the Bestiarum. [Edited on 07.26.2011 7:03 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Plasma Prestige It was to my knowledge that the Mgalekgolo were about 12' tall. It could be that Sangheili are 7-8.5 ft tall whereas Brutes are around 8.5-9 ft tall. [/quote] M'galekgolo = Hunters ~B2
-
I believe the calculated Sangheili height was 8 ft 6 according to the Bestarium. As for Jiralhanae(Brutes), 8 ft 5 to 9 ft easy, Halo Encyclopedia...depending if you trust it, oh and estimates using a side by side view of an upright john and a fully upright brute. ~B2

I think they were like 7'-8' tall. I know M'galekgolo are like 10' standing. [Edited on 07.26.2011 2:58 AM PDT]
