Oda is so good at making his baddies looking like imposing menaces, Luffy ends so small in comparison. Magellan is technically 16'1" to Luffy's 5'7", so approximately three times taller, but Oda's tweaked his proportions to look even bigger while framing him as a literal looming presence.
Magellan has always been the tallest of the human Impel Down staff, but he's never seemed this monstrous without the aid of his devil fruit. This doesn't look like a dude who spends 16 hours a day on the shitter, or who hides in little boxes because he doesn't like to be out in the open. This is Magellan, Head Warden of the most secure and dangerous prison in the world, and he's about ready to show Luffy how he earned that title.
