      Nelson Mandela was not 6’4, at least not when he was older. Maybe when he was younger he was that tall. If I had to guess, I’d say around 185cm/ 6’1.

      Source: stood next to a “life size” Nelson Mandela statue. I was the same height

      Edit: Okay I decided to google it, and according to the Nelson Mandela Foundation’s website, he was 184cm tall. Close enough guess from me, turns out the statue really was life size.

        My mistake, he was listed at 6 foot 1/4 inch, and I accidentally misconstrued that as 6 foot 4.
