This is how ive always imagined their heights compared to humans.

@neo4812  
this was based around the 8 foot candy cane in that one episode, so yeah it’s still useful now

this needs a update

How tall would Twilight be standing on two hooves instead of all four?

@Nosfrat  
You sound like Rarity to me, seeing as you have a Rarity avatar picture.

The height of a full grown mare would be up to where the doorknob is on a door in my house.

Size chart #223 for people to fight over, this is b8.

@Background Pony #9C73  
How about this then  
 
According to what Twilight said in that episode, the measurements should be right.

@Shimmering Spectacle  
No, the height of a mare is less than a meter, from her hoof to ear.
 
This pic is wrong.

This is almost right, when it comes to a pony’s height their just over a meter tall.

Cadance is smaller than BM, I extensively checked screencaps.

worng! celestia is smarler of human and every pony are smarler of her!

This is wrong in regards to Big Mac’s, Luna’s and Cadance’s size, based on Twilight’s Kingdom.

@Background Pony #159B  
Well, Spike is pretty dang small as a dog in EQG, FWIW.  

@Background Pony #159B  
I don’t exactly see a problem with that notion.

The Fridge Logic that often trips me up at this comparison is that if these figures hold, Spike has to be only roughly a foot and a half tall. Attempting to compare his height to Twilight’s is hard though, since she’s not exactly standing on the bottom of the chart, so getting an exact figure is difficult.
 
That’s compounded by the fact that he was apparently able to ride Twilight as far back as Season 1. A pony of Twilight’s size in this chart shouldn’t even be able to carry a human child, and Twilight isn’t exactly portrayed as athletic. That’d imply Spike is lightweight enough a reasonably athletic human could almost pick him up one handed and toss him like a shot-put at a track and field event.

@boom08  
That’s what I thought as well. Shining Armor also counts, as both are roughly the same size.
 
Either way, this season was VERY inconsistent with sizes.

Mac is definitely bigger than Cadence and Luna.

@Background Pony #713C  
Discord is roughly 8 feet, maybe a couple inches less, depending on how “bent” his body is. I suppose he could reach 9, maybe even 10 with horns if standing upright. Celestia is definitely smaller than she is in this picture, about five and a half feet without the horn, but Discord is nowhere near twice her size, more like 1.5x.

where’s Discord? hes ATLEAST twice as tall as Celestia

Sweetie is accurate, the rest is complete bullshit. Twilight is twice as tall as a filly? Yeah, no. Big Mac is bigger than Cadance, and Celestia is far taller than the other alicorns, but she’s still hardly five feet without the horn.

I like how there are a few “canons” determining the size of the ponies. There’s the EG canon, then the “8 foot candy cane” canon… what else am I missing?

@Jack Kellar  
Nope, I didn’t realize you meant reared up until I had already replied, my bad.

BaneSwg  
Was it rearing up?

@Background Pony #DC8D  
Sry just read where you wrote “hind legs”.
