This Is What It Looks Like When A 6ft 7in Footballer Stands Next To A Jockey

    Peter Crouch is very, very tall.

    This is Stoke City and England striker Peter Crouch, who stands at 6ft 7in, stood next to horse racing jockey Nathan Alison, who measures 5ft. This picture has not been altered.

    One person pointed out it looked like something from Lord of the Rings where the hobbits were made to look small with CGI.

    The pair met up at the Dubai Racing Club, where Crouch is away on a team break.

    Alison supports Tottenham Hotspur, one of Crouch's former clubs, and once said he could have been a footballer had things turned out differently, having had trials with Chelsea and Charlton Athletic as a youngster.

    Marking himself out as one of the more interesting Premier League footballers, Crouch was recently spotted crowdsurfing at a Kasabian gig.
