Absolutely right, Mel Gibson 5ft9 and a half he even has himself as 5 foot 10 on the Google search he’s lucky if he’s 5 foot eight this list is complete BS
Ive met John Lithgow and talked to him for 15-20 minutes. He is very tall. Im 6'3 and a half and he easily an inch taller than me...and he was in flat shoes. He could pass for 6'6" easily in boots of something. A large and imposing man, but with a lovely gentle temperament. It was a pleasure to talk to him
I had a chance to talk to Tim Robbins, back in 2007 I think it was. I went to see a talk in Greenwich Village, and Jane Goodall was the guest speaker. Outside I was hailing a cab, and Tim Robbins wrote up on his bike. Since I’m 6‘6“ tall, and he’s 6‘4“ tall, I asked him if he had any tips for getting into acting. He was unsurprisingly tight-lipped, but a very pleasant man otherwise. In all fairness, his advice was, “just keep auditioning.“
Nathan Lane, Henry Winkler, Brian Cox and Cillian Murphy are all shorter than I'd expected, while Gene Hackman, John Travolta and Bill Murray are taller than anticipated! (Those half inches seem very important to those concerned, btw.)
Boy camera angles fool you in movies I picked most of the 6ft and over and most of the 5ft people but some of the usual height 5 ft 5 - 6ft had me scratching my head!! Great vid
At just a hair under 6'5" I'm a giant in Hollywood. Though I never worked with any stars I've actually done a bit of stage, TV and movie acting and always towered over everyone. Funny how some of these guys looks much taller on screen and other seem shorter than listed. Was especially surprised to see how short Danny Trejo is, I thought he was closer to 6'. But Hollywood has lots of tricks such as they had taller actresses standing a lowered spot next to George Raft. One thing that is famous for sparking a style trend was Barbara Feldon's slouch because she was taller than Don Adams in Get Smart. But that actually caused her spinal damage and life long pain.
Man this made this 68 yr young lady feel old! I mean good grief where have I been the last 20 yrs? These child actors all grown up and younger actors gray? Good gracious great balls of fire!!!
Robert DeNiro is NOT 5'9"! He is one of the shortest actors out there. He is so insecure about his height that he wears shoes with super thick soles and heels.
I would take these heights with a pinch of salt. During my fitness days in my 30s I was 5'7". Now at 46 I am 5'6". We all change as we age. Our bones weaken and as a result, our bodies shrink.
Kevin Costner is definitely not 6’1”. I saw him once years ago and he couldn’t have been more than 5’8” then. Jeff Goldblum absolutely is that tall. He was incredibly good looking when he was young too.
Robert Red Ford was in a movie with Daryl Hannah in the 80's. She is 5ft 11" (same as I was for years until a knee op, and I lost an inch - Daryl and I are around the same age) and Robert Redford was the same height as her.
In case you are not aware 5'6 to 5'11 is the average human height for men. You being 5'9 is not average for a woman. The normal average height for Women is around 4'10 to 5'5 depending on your origins. My girl is 5'7 and I'm only a bit taller, around 5'10 and she's very happy 😊. Also a person who's 5'9 isn't short, it's called normal, beyond that it's called tall and if you are even more beyond that you're a giant. Also I Don't believe that height matters that much unless you're a professional basketball player.
The first time I remember wondering how tall actors really were was when MTV did Rock 'n' Wrestling (something like that) and Cyndi Lauper was standing next to Hulk Hogan. I remember thinking that she was the same height as Rocky was next to the Hulkster
Jim Caviezel should have been on the list. He's 6 foot 2 inches. Played the part of Jesus in Passion of the Christ an had a great tv. series in Persons of Interest with Michael Emerson (5 foot 8 inches) who played one of the most 'bad' men in t.v. history, Ben Linus.
Chances of a malnourished, desert-dwelling Jew on a nutrition-deficient diet reaching 6 foot 2 inches 2000 years ago is a very long stretch in likelihood.
@@PhantomFilmAustralia I don't think Mary Joseph were all that poor, given Joseph was a carpenter and that was a needed skill back then. And Jesus, once he became noticed and had a following - he probably ate well too, with the gifts and places to sleep and eat that were offered to him by his followers. But by then, he was a grown man. I doubt too, that he was 6 foot 2inchs...but I also doubt he was a short person either. And again, I think that growing up, he probably ate well, and the food in that area, even back then would have had: Meat, from goats (milk/cheese too) and sheep. A good variety of fish. Fruits: dates, pomegranates, grapes/wine and figs, olives/olive oil and honey. They had wheat, barely, and legumes, so they had basics to make breads and stews/soups. If the Bible is right, Mary and Joseph had the money to get an inn...but there was no room. They were not in that stable because they were poor. Also, the wise men gave them some pretty expensive gifts...that could have been sold for a lot of money. And with a skilled laborer as the head of the house...again, I think Jesus didn't grow up in a home that was near poverty level. They probably weren't rich but I bet they could afford a diet with variety of food, which would help a child grow taller and stronger than those eating less, lesser quality and of less variety of food. Also, I think Gibson wanted an actor who was a believer, which is hard to find in Hollywood. Jim Caviezel fit the bill, even if technically he might have been taller than most Hebrews of that era.
I love Jim - I've been a fan of his for years, he's very handsome and striking looking. I'm 5ft 10", so we'd make a great couple - in my humble opinion of course!!! 😊❤
@@StormyPeakps he could also make 100's of loaves out of one loaf, and lots of fish too, not to mention turning water into wine (wish I had that skill!! 😂), so he ate like a king on one penny. Of course, he WAS a king.
Strange how movies affect our perception of people's height. There are quite a few men that I thought were taller than they actually are, and some who are quite tall that I thought were shorter. Like, I would have thought Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves would be 5'10" tall, but Pacino is shorter than that and Reeves is taller.
Some real surprises here. I knew Danny Devito was short, but I didn't know he was sub-5foot. I didn't know Danny Trejo was a shorty Conversely, I always thought Ryan Gosling was a little guy Same with Bill Murray. I always thought he was around 5' 8"
I know for a fact Arnold isn't 6'2". I worked for the state of California and have been close to Arnold several times, and I am 6' even. Arnold is maybe 5'8". It was funny seeing him with his security detail. They were all over 6', and he would disappear when they surround him.
They aren't. There's a lot of pressure on male actors to look tall because many places associate height with attractiveness in men. Research from dating sites shows a massive drop off in female interest if a man is under 5'9". There's a lot of actors whose official height is bumped up a few inches. I've stood right next to one of the actors listed as 5'9" on this list who is regarded as a real sex symbol and A lister. He was the same height as me and I'm 5'7"
Clint Eastwood is 94 years old now and have terrible posture but he can't be more than 6´1" today. In his prime he could have been 6´4" or close to that.
Not all of us. But those of us over 6 feet tall should’ve been smarter than to get into theater to make a living. 17 years and nothing to show for it, except a book that I’m writing.
It always amazes me how short most actors are. I am 64, and I think there were a couple of guys under 5’10” majority 5’11” to 6’2”. Maybe in the Great Plains we grow them taller. Husband 6’2”, son 6’ 2 1/2” daughter 5’9”. Even at church I think there are a few short men, but most 5’11”-6’6”.
Stallone wears Cuban heeled shoes all the time...he is likely around 5'7"...actors tend to lie about their height. A reporter once asked Burt Reynolds how tall he was...Burt replied..." Most all actors will tell you they are six feet tall!" Reynolds was 5'11, like Elvis, but also like Elvis, he often wore small "lifts" in his shoes. Being six feet tall is some sort of masculinity test...at least in Hollywood!
Athletes too are adding extra inches. I see it in tennis all the time, especially the women. For example, Jessica Pegula, listed as 5'7 and I.ve seen her in person, looks like 5 '4 -5'5. Same with Ons Jabeur, I believe they say 5'6" and looks like 5'4 to me.
I took a picture with him. He's definitely not 5'7. I'm 5'11 and he was a hair taller than me. I'd say he's 6' even. You're not very good at judging height.
I wouldn't be surprised if most of the figures were 2, even 3 in less in real life due to embellishments and basic human aging but 7 in smacks of a fib.
He was never less 6'1 1/2" inch in official sportive measures. Same case (or worse) than Harrison Ford, he damaged his spine with too heavy trainings without pauses, in the "old style".... Now yeah, he could be about 5'11" at 77.
@@DerThorwald..nope...he was shorter than me when we met him at his house. I was surprised. I was 5'11 at the time.(I'm shorter now because of my age and having ankylosing spondylitis. ) My husband towered over him at 6'2. That was in 1987.
I went out with a man that was 5'2 . Turns out he was well compensated in other areas! There is no problem in my opinion with different looking folks. I don't mind if they are bald, fat, short, tall or thin. What does count, is what's in their heads.❤
Really? You don’t know why? My father was 6‘3“, his father was 7‘2“, and I ended up at 6‘6“ height has always been preferred among men, and though I don’t know why, taller men are often seen as more intelligent. I’m pretty smart, IQ of 156, but I can’t pass a physics class to save my life.
This guy has seen him and knows his height. That’s some keen observation there. Thanks for straightening us all out. Stupid internet. We should have just asked you about it.
In youth he was clearly over 6' in youth, between 6' and 6'1" until he was 60!! Nowadays he's about two inches less! He lost a lost for the several injuries he had during his life (acting and private life), 11 fractures!! Until 10 years ago, he didn't take care much of his health.
That’s why inversion tables were made. I am 56 and lost an inch of height, but two weeks on an inversion table, three sessions a day of five minutes, and I was back to my regular height. I knew of a man in his 70s who was 6‘4“ and lost 4 inches to aging but six months on an inversion table and he was back to 6‘4“.
Danny Trejo, who "through" most of his movies he looked like he was at least over 6 or 7 😮 crazy how most of these great actors looked like they were much taller 😳 🤔 👌 😂 off by one word "through" not "threw" woah !!! 😳 🤣 🤔 😂
Where is Hugh Jackman? I’m 6’ 6” and I stood next to Jackman in the lobby before he did his interview for inside the actors studio back in 2004, and I would say he’s about 6’ 2.5”. And where is Kevin Durand? He’s 6‘6“ tall.
You need to do another one of these about heights, because you forgot Raymond Burr, Robert Conrad, Christopher Plummer, Sonny Bono, John Schneider, John (Duke) Wayne, Tom Wombat, James Best, Sorrell Booke, Jackie Gleason, Carroll O'Connor, Robin Williams, Rob Reiner, Carl Reiner, Sherman Hemsley, Mike Evans, John Amos, Martin Landau Michael J. Fox, Robert Pine, Martin Milner, Kent McCord, Erik Estrada, Larry Wilcox, Tom Bosley, John Forsythe, Larry Hagman, Tim Conway, Alan Alda, and others of older generations of Yesteryear..
I was expecting to see Hafthor (The Mountain). It's a shame that we don't have official weigh ins and height checks at age 25 for actors and politicians.
I’m shocked at how many of these guys are so extremely short. It just puts the lie to the widely believed narrative that most successful men tend to be tall or tall-ish or very tall. As a tall woman I’ve always gravitated towards men my height or taller, but not too much taller. One of the great passions of my life was with a man 2” shorter than I was, and I didn’t give a hoot about it.
@stevecameron1879 interesting, I have read from multiple sources that have said when Clint was younger he was around 6'3" obviously now being as he's 93 years old he's under 6' I just never heard anyone saying he was that short before.

He was never less 6'1 1/2" inch in official sportive measures. Same case (or worse) than Harrison Ford, he damaged his spine with too heavy trainings without pauses, in the "old style".... Now yeah, he could be about 5'11" at 77.
@@DerThorwald..nope...he was shorter than me when we met him at his house. I was surprised. I was 5'11 at the time.(I'm shorter now because of my age and having ankylosing spondylitis. ) My husband towered over him at 6'2. That was in 1987.
He was about 6'1"...once.
Michael Fassbender is not German-American. He's Irish.
Irish mother, German father. Born in Germany and moved to Ireland as an infant.
Not bragging but I was 6 ft in the 8th grade, leveled out at 6'3" but I never understood why short guys had to over compensate.
That's like a rich person saying "Money isn't everything" or a guy with a full head of hair saying "Being bald is no big deal"
You for sure compensate in some other way. If you like women, you may have noticed how they prefer taller guys 99% of the time
I went out with a man that was 5'2 .
Turns out he was well compensated in other areas! There is no problem in my opinion with different looking folks. I don't mind if they are bald, fat, short, tall or thin.
What does count, is what's in their heads.❤
Really? You don’t know why? My father was 6‘3“, his father was 7‘2“, and I ended up at 6‘6“ height has always been preferred among men, and though I don’t know why, taller men are often seen as more intelligent. I’m pretty smart, IQ of 156, but I can’t pass a physics class to save my life.
Reading the comments sounds like a lot of actors have lied about their height.
😱
No surprise there!! 🤩
Makes you realize how many great actors we have had, and how many great rolls, and all with interesting faces.
Seems like Hollywood is on the short side! 😆
There is no way Harrison Ford is 6' 1" -- he is shorter -- I don't care what the Internet says -- I've seen him multiple times.
This guy has seen him and knows his height. That’s some keen observation there. Thanks for straightening us all out. Stupid internet. We should have just asked you about it.
In youth he was clearly over 6' in youth, between 6' and 6'1" until he was 60!! Nowadays he's about two inches less! He lost a lost for the several injuries he had during his life (acting and private life), 11 fractures!! Until 10 years ago, he didn't take care much of his health.
Did I miss Sam Elliot and Cole Hauser? Come on!
what would be the point of liying about how tall they are
@@DerThorwald I saw him in 2002 and 2007. Do the math -- make your own judgement.
And Martin Short isn't as 'short' as I thought he'd be
Tom Cruise is not 170 cm! (Maybe 165-166)
No way in hell the Terminator is 6'2
More like 5'8 or so. He certainly isn't over 6 feet.
Not anymore
Terminator is either 800 or 1000 😂
Great
I never would have thought that Leonardo Decaprio was six feet. I thought he was short.
I always thought Woody Harrelson was way taller. Same for Michael Douglas. On the other hand, Russell Crowe never appeared to me to be almost 6 feet.
Well, don't forget that we lose inches as we age. Most of these men are old.
That’s why inversion tables were made. I am 56 and lost an inch of height, but two weeks on an inversion table, three sessions a day of five minutes, and I was back to my regular height. I knew of a man in his 70s who was 6‘4“ and lost 4 inches to aging but six months on an inversion table and he was back to 6‘4“.
You forgot Charlie Hunnam, 6'1 English actor model and Travis Fimmel 6' Australian actor and model.
This was a fun video to speculate on. Perception of height can be misleading. Mamoa l99ks small if standing next th Shaq
Whawww! The are so short! Never noticed that in a movie!
I had no idea Keanu was so tall! I thought he was like 5'9"! Lol
The only celebrity height that this video got right.
Brad Pitt is at least 6 ft, taller than Leo DiCaprio.
Pitt is 5'11 not 6ft. Leo is 6ft.
Danny Trejo, who "through" most of his movies he looked like he was at least over 6 or 7 😮 crazy how most of these great actors looked like they were much taller 😳 🤔 👌 😂 off by one word "through" not "threw" woah !!! 😳 🤣 🤔 😂
@brianellis6517
.I was surprised at the number of actors in there that I was sure they were much taller/
I thought he was huge!
That's Hollywood
So if you are a short man, head to Hollywood and become an actor! Lol
The rock isn’t an actor, I don’t care what the internet says.
He may not be a good actor but he is an actor . A B movie actor I guess .
I've seen Steven Seagal and he is NOT that tall. I'm 5'6" and I could look him in the eyes.
There are a lot of shrimpy guys in Hollywood!
I'm 6'3 and he came to my chin so probably 5'11 or so. He's 6'5 around
Where is Hugh Jackman? I’m 6’ 6” and I stood next to Jackman in the lobby before he did his interview for inside the actors studio back in 2004, and I would say he’s about 6’ 2.5”. And where is Kevin Durand? He’s 6‘6“ tall.
Tom Cruise is BARELY 5'.
You need to do another one of these about heights, because you forgot Raymond Burr, Robert Conrad, Christopher Plummer, Sonny Bono, John Schneider, John (Duke) Wayne, Tom Wombat, James Best, Sorrell Booke, Jackie Gleason, Carroll O'Connor, Robin Williams, Rob Reiner, Carl Reiner, Sherman Hemsley, Mike Evans, John Amos, Martin Landau Michael J. Fox, Robert Pine, Martin Milner, Kent McCord, Erik Estrada, Larry Wilcox, Tom Bosley, John Forsythe, Larry Hagman, Tim Conway, Alan Alda, and others of older generations of Yesteryear..
I think it is confined to actors who were still living when it was drawn up.
I'm 5'5", this was helpful for me.
DeNiro is 5'9" when you count his Ego and the chip on his shoulder.
@@coupureetsaignement IYKYK
@@coupureetsaignement IDK so I think, you should try it.
Didn't realize they could stack it that high.
@@timsutterby9899 never underestimate a wokie.
😂😂😂😂
I had no idea Tim Robbin’s was so tall.
Russell Crowe is under 6 ft. Tall
You got Robert Redford WRONG!
If you look up the real records a lot of them are
much shorter 🤔
That's why Cromwell played Stretch Cunningham on "All in the Family" 😂
Chris Hemsworth I can believe.
Stallone is about 5'3" at most stood next to him
Cillian Murphy is not 5 ft 7..he'd 6ft easy
Jet Lee needs hair & Martin Short is 5'7 😂😂😂
I was expecting to see Hafthor (The Mountain). It's a shame that we don't have official weigh ins and height checks at age 25 for actors and politicians.
Did you ever see a cool shirt you really want in a large and all you see are a ton of small and mediums? I always get the cool shirts
Didn’t see GUTFELD!! He’s like 3’1/2”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤷🏻🙈👍🏻🇺🇸
he is not an actor
Judging from the comments, this list is totally worthless.
I’m shocked at how many of these guys are so extremely short. It just puts the lie to the widely believed narrative that most successful men tend to be tall or tall-ish or very tall. As a tall woman I’ve always gravitated towards men my height or taller, but not too much taller. One of the great passions of my life was with a man 2” shorter than I was, and I didn’t give a hoot about it.
Somebody is exaggerating!
Mel Gibson is an Australian actor
He was born in NY State
He still has that (with all due respect) ‘twang’, aye? Loved Mad Max!!
Actors heights are always exaggerated, Clint Eastwood is 5ft 9, John Wayne was 5ft 10, etc
@stevecameron1879 interesting, I have read from multiple sources that have said when Clint was younger he was around 6'3" obviously now being as he's 93 years old he's under 6' I just never heard anyone saying he was that short before.
John Cena us NOT 6ft 1 inch. What a joke!
I met Arnold schwarzenegger twice and I have to disagree that he is 6'2". He's more like 5'10" or 11" with a push. He's a nice guy.
Really shocked to learn how many actors are shorter than or the same height as me! I always forget that 5’9” is an abnormal height for women!
