Seven foot, eight and five sixteenth inches. Tall enough to tower over the majority of people, yet not look inhuman.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

He was 100 feet tall on Mount Olympus, and about 6 feet down on Earth, IIRC.

And Joe, the average height of men around the time of the Greco-Roman gods was about 5'2", significantly shorter than today.

That's not even close to being tall enough to touch Venus. ;[

I, too, say he's like 4' 6", that's why he had to fuck every thing.

Depends, how long where his legs?
One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.
