Peter Crouch

Peter Crouch is the distinctively tall forward who plays soccer for Liverpool and England. After bouncing around with several pro teams, he landed with Liverpool in 2005 and developed into a star. At a height of 6 feet 7 inches (198 centimeters) he was the tallest player in the English Premier League. Crouch played his first game for the national team in May of 2005, and scored his first World Cup goal for England in an opening-round game against Trinidad and Tobago in 2006. His comical "robot dance" of celebration after scoring goals has been a hit with fans.

Extra credit: Crouch became engaged to model Abbey Clancey, his longtime girlfriend, in July of 2009.
