OJ Simpson Height, Age, Weight: Body Statistics [UPDATED]

How tall is OJ Simpson? 

OJ has been known as one of the most controversial athletes in history, but this time we’ll talk about OJ Simpson’s height and not his career. 

In case you didn’t know, the former National Football League (NFL) player is actually 185 centimeters tall.

This fact tells us that Simpson has a height of six feet and one inch, which means he’s taller than an average American.

In the photo above, you can see how Simpson stands out whenever he’s in a crowd.

How did OJ Simpson lose weight?

If you’ve been following the “trial of the century” since the 1990s, then you’re probably surprised by OJ Simpson’s weight loss.

It turns out, OJ lost a hundred pounds (45 kilograms) while behind bars.

Curious? Read on.

According to sources, Simpson gained so much weight when he went to prison because of his unhealthy lifestyle.

That’s why the former football star decided to lose all that weight while he was in jail because he wanted to “look better” once he goes out of prison.

Seems reasonable to me.

But I’m sure you’re curious how Simpson was able to shed off a lot of his unwanted fats.

Well, thanks to his 2,600-calorie diabetic diet in prison, the former NFL star trimmed down to 200 pounds (90.7 kgs) from 300 pounds (136 kgs).

That’s a significant improvement you’ve done there, OJ!

What are OJ Simpson’s other body measurements? 

Due to his weight loss…

… OJ’s chest and waist size have lost a few inches – his chest size is now 44 inches (111 centimeters), while his waist circumference now measures 34 inches (86.4 cm). 

Now, in case you didn’t know…

… OJ Simpson’s shoes made headlines during the trial of the century.

To give you an idea about what happened, a size 12 Bruno Magli shoe print was left at the crime scene and was assumed to be OJ’s footprint.

Well, that’s because the athlete owns a pair of Bruno Magli and also wears his shoes in size US Men’s 12.
