Interestingly enough, it seems his young fans are not aware of Shaq’s huge height. This can be seen in one of his recent visits to a Dallas school.
When asked about Shaq’s height, kids from the school gave absurd answers that in no way represent Shaquille O’Neal’s build.

Shaq visited a school in Dallas to greet his young fans and have a good time. Interestingly enough, when the students were asked what Shaq’s height is, none of them were able to answer correctly! In fact, they made absurd assumptions like 6-foot-1 inches!
The host asked the kids, “How tall do you think Shaq is?” One student replied, 6-foot-1, while another replied 6-foot-5. The other two who were asked Shaq’s height were also wrong as they replied 6-foot-7 inches and 6-foot-8 and a half!
Crazy to think someone can assume Shaq’s height to be 6-foot-1 inches! For the uninitiated, Shaquille O’Neal is actually 7-foot-1 inch tall, making him one of the tallest players to ever play in the NBA.
Using his skills and physicality to perfect use, Shaq retired with an average of 23.7 points, 10.9 rebounds, and 2.5 assists and one of the greatest ever.
