And the Youngest, with Agro's spirit as a impulse, he jump to Phaedra's spot and stave it with all his being and ripped to end it, putting an end to both titans.
I prefer to scale everything from Wander assuming he's 5'7 (average Japanese male height), so everything would be multiplied 1.376 times (1.72/1.25). That would make Malus 48 * 1.376 = 66.048 meters or nearly twice as tall as the Statue of Liberty.
I recently updated the sizes based on Ueda saying that Phalanx is 200m long in the art book. It turns out that this makes Wander 1.7m tall and Malus 66m tall (like you said ; ) But the sizes in game are as above, so I have two blog posts now, the 'in-game' sizes and the 'real world' sizes. nomads-sotc-blog.blogspot.com/2017/09/colossi-sizes-real-world.html

that heartbeat sound effect when you direct sunlight at the glyph is really interesting. I never noticed it before. Probably because it's overpowered by music, usually.
Well, i don't know if his height is "due to the colossus" but I agree that even if he is a "teenager", his height is too short. It would be more credible if he would measure 1.30 or 1.40. Not very tall not too short.
+Phannie Seven-Four He's also some sorta tribal Japanese sooo he is destined to be pretty short. As Shadow of the Colossus takes place in some sort of Ancient time, and most likely they don't have a lot of mixed breeding if the society is very clan based thus, he is likely short because genetically and very little else gets into the gene pool
Great work! I didn't realise no.2 is as high as the other humanoid colossi. No.12 is deceptive too because we're only seeing what's above water. I can't believe it's been 10 years since SoTC was released on the PS2. Hopefully TLG will release this year. We've been waiting far too long!
very good nomad, I am an admirer of his work for three years, I am Brazilian but do not lose your videos, always wanted to delve into SOTC, but lack knowledge, it is necessary programs, hackers, codes to gain access to such exploitation, but I leave here my I liked.
A long time ago, I've subscribed in your channel and it's incrible how you work hard in contents from SotC. I'm your fan Nomad haha, I can't wait to see u doing some videos about The Last Guardian. Hugs for u mah friend!
I think Wander is so small because he's Japanese character from the very old time. They used to be very small in the last several centuries and beyond until the Meiji period. Emperor Meiji used "open-door method" and let Japaneses marry with other countries people to "improve their childs" and it worked. Right now their height and weight are good. I also think people who live in the past were much smaller than us right now due to revolution. In addition, according to wiki (I was too lazy to find a better place for this information, sorry) a heavy or draft horse can be approximately 16 to 19 hands (64 to 76 inches; 163 to 193 cm) high so the value of Agro may be right. That's why I think 1.2m Wander is acceptable.
+sidnax That would require so many hours of work... I don't think this is possible during my lifetime xD. But there are already good maps of the forbidden lands that I have uploaded to my Flickr page: www.flickr.com/photos/nomadcolossus/albums
@@daappyork5935 probably but not impossible. Like he said, give him (phalanx) any powers he can possibly take on godzilla if not godzillas. The power could be anything of sort that could equal to godzilla's own atomic breath. It would be interesting to see that happen.
Random Dude Godzilla(s) would still probably win out due to sheer amount of haxs and ability’s. You’d have to give phalanx a complete do over (better durability, more abilities of varying levels, more haxs) to him to stand a chance
Dude you are so amazing youtuber. You upload one of my favourite games, you work hard revealing secrets that no one found! I also liked your evidence about the rings it was so amazing. Good job you deserve more!
I just want to ask. Where did you get the idea for the sizes? I mostly wonder because in your blog the whole thing seems to be based on the heights of the blocks of the secret garden and the save stones, but how did you know hwo big those are?
+GamerRoman Yeah, the end has nothing to do with the video really xD. But I like to add something new that people haven't seen before just to spice up the video, I usually put these weird clips at the end of my videos.
I just looked up a hieght comparison for Wander and Agro, turns that Wander is 4'10ft and Agro is 6'0ft, guess the size of the colossi makes him smaller than you think.
I have a theory that stayed with me the whole time. I remember reading a post saying Mono was sacrificed for her cursed fate. now we see those shadow people at the start,then wander did something and they disappear,then dormin talks. now, 'cursed fate' wander was cursed from killing 16 collossi,so you see a shadow person when wander kills a collossus,so maybe Mono went there and wanted to revive dormin for some reason,and killed some collossi then she was stopped by Emon then was sacrificed.now,in the ending Emon said 'I knew it was you' I think.now,how does Emon know if it was wander? since he was Mono's lover/boyfriend/BFF or whatever,so that might explain how Wander knows of dormin and the ancient sword. just a theory,so if there is something wrong then please tell me.
+Strike Noir Interesting headcanon, but I think a lot of that is unnecessary when trying to figure out how Emon knew Wander was up to something, hence the "I knew it was you" line. I think that's explained pretty easily, actually. Wherever they came from, when Emon finds out that Mono, the Ancient Sword, and Agro are all missing, along with Wander being missing, it was probably pretty easy for him to put the pieces together.
+BlueDragon407 Yes, also in the opening cutscene when you see Emon's mask it appears this is Wander 'remembering' being told about the forbidden lands by Emon himself, perhaps when Wander was a child, like a scary story to frighten children - 'beware the forbidden lands or you will surely die'. But Mono's death had a profound effect on Wander, so he stole the sword and put aside the warnings in order for a chance to save her.
3, 6, and 15 felt the biggest to me. 3 and 15 also happened to be, imo, two of the most awesome to fight for some reason. 15 and 3 are definitely my favorites.
such a big fan of your work, Nomad! i gotta ask, what is your favorite colossus in the game? it seems like you spend so much time studying them, you gotta have one that caught your eye the most ^^
I used to say Phaedra, but now I think Avion - I mean you can tell from my videos that I seem to favour Avion over the others. But I can tell you my least favourite colossi are 1) Argus 2) Basaran 3) Dirge - the rest I love playing.
yes, Avion is an absolute standout i my opinion. replaying the game on ps3, I've been finding that the thematics and stage for Barba is absolutely killer. As well I really like Hyrdus.
+DrScoob and the density of them is uncertain. If its normal rock they would be really heavy, but if it was something akin to osmium even the smallest titan would weigh like 5 tons
No man, it's impossible... Quadratus was not that big, its weird. In that picture, it seems that wander is so tiny close to his head, when in the game it almost the same size.
Im not gonna lie...malus is awesome, but he should have been bigger than all the other collosi. In fact. He could have been so big that he has savepoints inside him. Not only would he be a strange combination of creature, land, and building, but environment as well
All the giants, are my favorite bosses, because they inspire us what their fury and dexterity, make them be more fantastic of the PS2, PS3 and PS4 :-D. I am Colombian, greetings from your hometown.
I feel like phalanx is the longest colossi out of both hydrus and dirge if you think about it,not to mention that both Celosia and Cenobia are the same height cause they are the only two small ones in the game and dirge is basically (like Jacksepticeye said in his Shadow Of The Colossus video) like hydrus but smaller and with a different face and tail
That moment, when you realize just how freaking *HUGE* Quadratus (2º colossus) really is... Also, are you kidding me? Are you telling me Wander is a shorty of just 1,25 meters tall? 7:11 Man, I know it wouldn't fit, but I kinda wished we could play as those warriors in the game. Even if for a short while, even if to just defeat a host of shadows and fend off Dormin, I think it would've been nice to play as them as well. Oh well, we got one of your videos pretty much displaying Emon's skills as a commander, ordering those crossbowmen to shoot. XD That's something at least.
I think it would be better if pelagia wasn't in the water. it would make for such a good fight if you had to climb him in some way because it's such a giant
How many collosi are? (I started playing the remake yesterday and I haven't played it in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNGGGG time...)
so, if I'm understanding right, Wander is 1 meter and 25 centimeters tall? Isn't it a bit too short even for a young boy? Anyway thx for still providing content, always interesting and quality videos from you!
+LittleBigBeyond It's not a skin, I'm controlling one of the soldiers that arrive at the end cutscene - it's difficult to explain how I do this as it requires finding specific byte codes then searching for a value from 0 to 255 for that byte... takes ages to find.
I haven't actually played this game, but I've been watching gameplay of it for AGES, at least 3 years. But now I want to experience it for myself, I do own a ps2 but it's all busted and years old, so I was wandering how to get it on PC... do you know how? I love your channel by the way. It's good to see games like this are still somewhat popular.
Wander's small height serves to accentuate the impression of giantness of the colossi.
+Morlun91 I couldn't have said it better myself ; )
But in comparison with other characters (Mono, soldiers and the Shaman) , Wander is still being small?
Morlun91 i like
Giantness...
@King Lurch omg everyone knows that we are not stupid
Wander is really damn short. Didn't really expect that.
well....he's Asian :P
@k a are you fucking kidding me?
k a no he’s not lmao
wipe0utpuls3 is he?
This would make sense in a way. I remember being able to climb around things really easily as a kid than I do now.
Sure, Wander's height appears kinda wrong to us. But perhaps in the world he origins from humans are just smaller in general.
Great video by the way. Very interesting to see!
I think humans on average were shorter in the past due to lack of as much food as there is today
True. One I went to a museum with lot of clothes from the XV century and people was so small. Just like wander
People were shorter on average, but not that much. Height has increased aproximately 15 cm on average in the last 1000 years.

I remember reading a post saying Mono was sacrificed for her cursed fate. now we see those shadow people at the start,then wander did something and they disappear,then dormin talks. now, 'cursed fate' wander was cursed from killing 16 collossi,so you see a shadow person when wander kills a collossus,so maybe Mono went there and wanted to revive dormin for some reason,and killed some collossi then she was stopped by Emon then was sacrificed.now,in the ending Emon said 'I knew it was you' I think.now,how does Emon know if it was wander? since he was Mono's lover/boyfriend/BFF or whatever,so that might explain how Wander knows of dormin and the ancient sword.
just a theory,so if there is something wrong then please tell me.
+Strike Noir Interesting headcanon, but I think a lot of that is unnecessary when trying to figure out how Emon knew Wander was up to something, hence the "I knew it was you" line. I think that's explained pretty easily, actually. Wherever they came from, when Emon finds out that Mono, the Ancient Sword, and Agro are all missing, along with Wander being missing, it was probably pretty easy for him to put the pieces together.
+BlueDragon407 well i was young back then
+BlueDragon407 Yes, also in the opening cutscene when you see Emon's mask it appears this is Wander 'remembering' being told about the forbidden lands by Emon himself, perhaps when Wander was a child, like a scary story to frighten children - 'beware the forbidden lands or you will surely die'. But Mono's death had a profound effect on Wander, so he stole the sword and put aside the warnings in order for a chance to save her.
It can not be that simply because when Wander arrives, none of the statues is destroyed.
Cormorano Imperatore Maybe Mono fought the beta colossi XD
3, 6, and 15 felt the biggest to me. 3 and 15 also happened to be, imo, two of the most awesome to fight for some reason. 15 and 3 are definitely my favorites.
im waiting for one day to have a model seriously design a few new colossi. Is this even possible??
Nomad i love your videos, even though i aways come really late to watch them. LOL
And I come EXTREMELY late
Parabéns por mais um excelente vídeo Nomad Colossus... já estava com saudades deles pois gosto muito das descobertas que vc faz no jogo SOTC...
=D
pretty damn cool how you were able to determine these stats
I wonder how Trico measures up to the Colossi...
such a big fan of your work, Nomad! i gotta ask, what is your favorite colossus in the game? it seems like you spend so much time studying them, you gotta have one that caught your eye the most ^^
I used to say Phaedra, but now I think Avion - I mean you can tell from my videos that I seem to favour Avion over the others. But I can tell you my least favourite colossi are 1) Argus 2) Basaran 3) Dirge - the rest I love playing.
yes, Avion is an absolute standout i my opinion. replaying the game on ps3, I've been finding that the thematics and stage for Barba is absolutely killer. As well I really like Hyrdus.
They should remastered this game on PS4
Well, with The Last Guardian coming soon, we may see SotC on PS4
theyll probably end up doing an ico, sotc and last guardian bundle at some point
Emperor Nyandham it's actually a remake
DMR Builder Wish granted!
And then they are doing it
You the shadow of the colossus Captian!And thanks for this videos is whatched many times.😃
I wonder how much weight for each Colossus
Difficult to predict as some are more covered in stone, some have weapons etc..
yeah, just make small guess, I do love to know :)
+DrScoob and the density of them is uncertain. If its normal rock they would be really heavy, but if it was something akin to osmium even the smallest titan would weigh like 5 tons
God I love phalanx
I have finally re-found this channel!
time to re-sub
No man, it's impossible... Quadratus was not that big, its weird. In that picture, it seems that wander is so tiny close to his head, when in the game it almost the same size.
that's a great video, i can see how much work went to it, but is there a chance for more beta colossi videos? those were great!
i think he went through all the Information he could get so i think it would be quite unlikely
a man can dream :D
+Dolan Duk haha true
Im not gonna lie...malus is awesome, but he should have been bigger than all the other collosi. In fact. He could have been so big that he has savepoints inside him. Not only would he be a strange combination of creature, land, and building, but environment as well
All the giants, are my favorite bosses, because they inspire us what their fury and dexterity, make them be more fantastic of the PS2, PS3 and PS4 :-D.
I am Colombian, greetings from your hometown.
I feel like phalanx is the longest colossi out of both hydrus and dirge if you think about it,not to mention that both Celosia and Cenobia are the same height cause they are the only two small ones in the game and dirge is basically (like Jacksepticeye said in his Shadow Of The Colossus video) like hydrus but smaller and with a different face and tail
how i can find that values in the memory? (to have a big jump)
I Found This Game At A Thrift Store And Fell In Love
It looks like Malus is wearing shoes
Man i never tought Phaedra is so taller
yes i was going to comment the same. She seems a bit big. Im not sure tho.
+DarkShadowGamer83#DetonaHard Ikr? I think the reason it looks smaller than Quadratus is because it is really thin.
It's probably because to get to its head you have to lower its neck. If you climb from its earrings you can get on its head while it's still upright.
It's cause that one is always leaning down.
Fantastic work, man!
That moment, when you realize just how freaking *HUGE* Quadratus (2º colossus) really is... Also, are you kidding me? Are you telling me Wander is a shorty of just 1,25 meters tall?
7:11 Man, I know it wouldn't fit, but I kinda wished we could play as those warriors in the game. Even if for a short while, even if to just defeat a host of shadows and fend off Dormin, I think it would've been nice to play as them as well.
Oh well, we got one of your videos pretty much displaying Emon's skills as a commander, ordering those crossbowmen to shoot. XD That's something at least.
Dude, for some reason I think Quadratus is wrong in this video. There's no possible way that the boy is so tiny compared to the foot of the colossu.
I think it would be better if pelagia wasn't in the water. it would make for such a good fight if you had to climb him in some way because it's such a giant
hey im playing this game at the moment and it doesnt run really smooth can you share your pcsx2 settings pls
You know how theres like rubble on them like parts of a building. What if they combined together to for one massive rod reiss sized collosus
I’m not sure if Barba is Wider in terms of shoulder width compared to Argus
Thank you. I'm making a level for a game in vr modeled after this thing because I want to climb the colossi, and these scales help nicely.
Sooo did you do it
Nope, forgot :)
Climbey's level creator isn't ideal for that sort of thing, anyway. At best, it would still look really scuffed.
@@TheHappyMadman well atleast you responded
Could you possibly do a video of all the colossi corpses after they have been killed?
Yeah, I can't find any high quality videos showing them off.
I had always wondered if wander was either really short or agro was humongous
Hey Nomad I have a question can you jump and hang on to the birds at the first colossus
Not possible
heyy nomad are you gonna do videos like this / discoveries secrets etc. for 'prey for the gods' game ?
How many collosi are? (I started playing the remake yesterday and I haven't played it in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNGGGG time...)
so, if I'm understanding right, Wander is 1 meter and 25 centimeters tall?
Isn't it a bit too short even for a young boy?
Anyway thx for still providing content, always interesting and quality videos from you!
Hey Nomad, is there a way to extract model files from the SotC Viewer as .obj files? Specifically the entire world model.
I think something went wrong measuring here, as Quadratus and Basaran are far too big when comparing them to the other colossi.
Phalanx is fucking huge. It’s just hard to tell until you get on his back since he’s far away in the sky.
Todos realmente são muito bem feito. Valeu por mais um vídeo Nomad.Nice Xd
damn it has been years since this game was released and still its full of secrets
So Wander is a dwarf? :o
Ps: I didn't understood the measuring method :/
Hey there Nomad video or something that proves that Unidone's record in 12 colossus NTA?
in the future of ICO, i'm expecting Shadow of Colossus VR vers.
it must be trillin'...!!!
what is the name of the memory editor that you use or you make your own memory editor?answer please thank you
I use Tsearch and MHS (Memory Hacking Software). Both are free to download.
I love how Phalanx is technically bigger than malus
What skin were you using at the end and how?
+LittleBigBeyond It's not a skin, I'm controlling one of the soldiers that arrive at the end cutscene - it's difficult to explain how I do this as it requires finding specific byte codes then searching for a value from 0 to 255 for that byte... takes ages to find.
So Pholux must be the same size as Dormin.
I haven't actually played this game, but I've been watching gameplay of it for AGES, at least 3 years. But now I want to experience it for myself, I do own a ps2 but it's all busted and years old, so I was wandering how to get it on PC... do you know how? I love your channel by the way. It's good to see games like this are still somewhat popular.
Bonecrusher The Decepticon I know this is a pretty old comment, but I think you can use an emulator to play on pc
When it comes out, you should explore the last guardian
Man, that Wander is short! About 1 m tall to the shoulders? Seriously? That invalidates the rest.
I like more the Real world sizes. Agro is giant, but Wander is not a dwarf lol
My favourite collosus and Boss battle in SOTC is Avion
Are you sure that Quadratus is that big? 3rd colossus seems huge compared to him in the game.
Colossi sizes from the official Japanese art booK

How do i download the pictures ob flickr
I thought Phaedra wasn't that big. Pretty surprised...
I dont get how Celosia and Cenobia count as collussi
I had no idea Quadatrus was THAT big, I always thought he was on the smaller side. Similar to Basaran.
1:28 Was Dirge really this big?
Yes.
My Argo was a black horse. Is it random or something?
No. With the original, you can get Agro to have different skin colors by putting in a cheat code at one particular point in the game.
I forgot where to put it in. But if you do it right, then Agro can have an option to either remain black or change to white or brown.
Is there one for the forgotten colossi?
This is a very cool channel. Make more videos please because I'm subscribing.
Thanks for subscribing ; ) I'll try to make some more videos for you.
Our main man Wander is the One True Short King! Bless him and his giant horse c:
