Here’s the Truth About Peppa Pig’s Real Height (It’s Not as Terrifying as Fans Thought)
A major miscalculation by the show’s fans led to a viral inner joke. We’re here to debunk all the rumours about Peppa Pig’s ridiculous height and give the most certain update on the matter.
Launched more than two decades ago as a TV show for kids, Peppa Pig soon got all the attention from much older audiences, also becoming a means for adults to spend a thoughtless evening after a hard day at work.
With time, Peppa, as well as her family and friends, has become a character so compelling the show’s fans were desperate to know everything about her and others in the series — even including their heights.
At some point, however, things went very wrong, with some fans’ major calculation mistake causing a hilarious chaos in the fandom — here’s how tall Peppa really is and what’s the deal with all those shocking calculations.
How Tall Is Peppa Pig, Really?
Despite some rumours that circulated among Peppa Pig’s fans for a while, at some point the show’s creators have confirmed that Peppa is actually 3 feet 9 inches (1.1 meters) tall.
In the meantime, her little brother George is 2 feet 5 inches (0.74 meters) tall, Daddy Pig is around 6 feet 6 inches (1.98 meters) tall, while Mummy Pig is around 5 feet 9 inches (1.75 meters) tall.
In fact, Peppa Pig’s official website with all the information about the matter mentions some untrustworthy sources that somehow came up with much more different numbers, presenting the Pig family as, well, a family of giants.
This eventually turned into a viral joke that some fans still can’t stop talking about.
Fan Miscalculation Made Peppa Pig a Giant
Things did become a little bit confusing for Peppa Pig’s fans several years ago when a someone posted their own calculations of the lead characters’ heights, suggesting that Peppa, George, Daddy Pig and Mummy Pig were 7 feet 1 inch (2.16 meters), 4 feet 6 inches (1.38 metres), 15 feet (4.59 metres) and 12 feet 2 inches (3.72 metres) tall respectively.
Others quickly picked it as a way to reconsider actual sizes of things in Peppa Pig’s world, eventually coming up with lots of jokes about the revelation.
“It must suck to be them in the real world, they wouldn’t even be able to fit under most bridges in my state”, Redditor JhEthylic04 shared in a thread.
“That's terrifying, I'm only 5'10 and that's not much taller than George in retrospective to daddy pig, they could eat us all alive”, another user added.
“Wait. Peppa is 7 ft tall?! My head cannon was that she was about two inches tall… like how big a kid would draw her with her family on a standard piece of paper…” Limp_Will16 wondered in a different thread.
