Adam Baldwin Height
Adam Baldwin height: 6 ft 4 in (193 cm)

US Actor from Full Metal Jacket and more recently Firefly and CHUCK. Said in 2004 xpose magazine, "I'm 6'4. David Boreananz is a big guy too, maybe 6'1". I am 230 pounds so he's probably 200, 210. He's a formidable presence so it's not like I can dominate him. Plus, they put the camera angles lower so it makes him look bigger.". We met him at a Starfury event (Photos by Daniel) in 2008, me/adam have about same footwear, Jenny about 0.3 inch less this day.


5ft 8 Rob, 5ft 8.25 Jenny and Adam.

I would say 6-3 like me, if you want to know for sure ask him to take a pic with me and post it, im 6-3 legit and let us not wear shoes and then we will know
paul says on 15/Jan/10
Definetly 6'4'' he was the same height as Jeff Goldblum on Independence Day
Lenad says on 2/Jan/10
Looks a solid 192cm
Hugh 190-192cm says on 31/Dec/09
Such an underrated actor indeed. Yeah My Bodyguard was one of his best. As was Full Metal Jacket
Darrell says on 10/Dec/09
I thought he was great in "My Bodyguard". Still one of my favorite movies.
Perfectly Petite says on 16/Oct/09
I met Adam at the Ride to Recovery to benefit Wounded Warriors this weekend. He was bicycling 70 miles that day for the charity so I got to see him in form fitting biking clothes, and he is definitely 6'4". The reason that people aren't sure in pictures is because he isn't just tall, he's completely proportionate and in shape, as opposed to Jeff Goldblum who looks so tall because he's so lanky. His hand was almost as big as my head! As a thank you for helping my fellow veterans, I bought him a Navy Pride shirt, and he wears 2XL. He's also the nicest guy in the world, taking time to talk to us, sign autographs, and take pics less than 20 minutes before a 70 mile bike ride.
SH says on 19/Aug/09
Always looked a solid 6'4'' to me comparing him to other actors, objects doorframes etc, there are no doubts he is a big big guy.
yoyo says on 29/Jul/09
thanks rob. but i still see him a little under 6ft4 nowadays. 6ft3 or 6ft3.5 looks right. a 6ft4 guy middle of lips should reach the tip of your head with similar standing posture as you. but i believe his 6ft4 in Full Metal Jacket
Ange says on 28/Jul/09
Nevermind the height (still sticking w/ a smidge over 6'4) when did he get so *old*? I have this image of him as the Maj in ID-4. I guess I have to let that go.
Ahleks says on 27/Jul/09
5-5 is pretty tall for a twelve-year old. Add five inches over the next two years to get to 14, and your're 5'10 BEFORE you've even started your growth spurt.
Hugh says on 26/Jul/09
6'3" max, i would tell 6'2" if he didn't slouched a bit.
yoyo says on 26/Jul/09
well then. just a little under 6ft4 i see him. maybe 6ft3.5 , 6ft4 when he was younger though..
yoyo says on 19/Jul/09
rob, don't you think his more like 6ft3 next to you? i see him 6ft4.5 with shoe in movies. always thought his a good 6ft3..

[Editor Rob: I had a talk with him at another event and in front of me he stood at his tallest and I thought 6ft 4 is fair.]
Lenad says on 7/Jul/09
2005 my height ranged from 152-155cm 2006 my height ranged from 159-165cm 2007 my height ranged from 168-172cm 2008 my height ranged 173-177cm amd 2009 currently I'm 178-179cm! Thats what I've measured myself at anyway
Austrian says on 3/Jul/09
@Ahleks: 5'5 at 12 isnt exactly huge

a friend of mine was 5'6 (ok hes 6'6 now, but at the time he wasnt the tallest in class)
Doug says on 18/Jun/09
Well I wouldn't say I see "plenty" of 6'4" and + fellows daily. A legit 6'4" is quite rare actually but not that uncommon. If you walk though the city you'll see a handful of guys 6'4" and over but really not many. A legit 6'4" is quite rare Adam the percentage of guys who are 6'4" and over is below 1%.
Lenad says on 14/Jun/09
I can buy 6ft3 at the lowest
Perfectly Petite says on 14/Jun/09
Someone asked what age you start losing height. It depends a lot on lifestyle. Military special forces guys will often lose up to 1.5 inches because of the slamming their bodies take through the years, so it can actually start in your 20's. 2 common causes of height loss are smoking and carbonated beverages: the CO and CO2 prevent absorbtion of minerals, i.e. all that wonderful calcium your body needs to keep building and repairing bones.
Ahleks says on 6/Jun/09
The guy is huge.

His son is like 5'5 at age 12.

J.J. says on 1/Jun/09
His actual height is exactly 6'3.875" which is above 6'3.75" so he is 6'4". Very tall guy
Mathew says on 31/May/09
6'3", 6'4" max.
Alex V. says on 24/May/09
"Anonymous", D'Onofrio and Baldwin don't appear together in Full Metal Jacket...
Wade says on 8/May/09
He had to be at least 6'4.5" in his younger days. If you've ever seen My Bodyguard it looks like he's a whole foot taller then just about everyone lol.
Anonymous says on 6/May/09
Adam Baldwin is definitely a big tall imposing dude but there's a chance he could be a shade under 6ft4. But then again there are times when he can look 194cm like in Full Metal Jacket where he has Vincent D'Onferio by 1 inch.
ikbtops says on 28/Apr/09
Adam is one of my favorite, yet unsung actors. He's definitley a healthy 6'4". This picture is so nice and wholesome. He looks like the younger brother you never had and you hope won't turn on you and destroy you.

[Editor Rob: I actually saw Baldwin again at a weekend convention. Him and Zachary Levi were in attendance.

Great guys, had a few wee chats with both and up close I think 6ft 4 is still fair, and Levi was a surprise, he wasn't much shorter really than adam, 1/2 inch maybe.]
Hugh 190cm says on 17/Apr/09
I don't think Adam Baldwin has lost any height. I beleive he's 6ft4 flat nowadays and maybe in another 10 or so years he will begin to shrink. With Rob he looks around 6ft3-6ft3.5. But fully stretched out he's 6ft4. In the morning he might even be 194cm.
Yaspaa says on 27/Mar/09
James! 6'4 peak and 6'2.75 now....you nutter! 193.5 out of bed,191.5 to bed. Nate Fillion (Happy Birthday dude) is a big guy but is clearly shorter than Adam. I think he is also closer to 215-220lbs these days.
yoyo says on 27/Mar/09
looks 6ft3 to me.
Sam says on 23/Mar/09
If Editor Rob is 5'8ish than this dude is 6'3, not 6'4. He is still bigger than me though so the hell with it.
adam says on 22/Mar/09
Anonymous Jeff says on 21/Mar/09
I'm a guy who is 6'1.5" I hate it! I feel so much taller than everyone else. Not too many tall guys like Adam.

Where in the hell do you live? You hate being 6-1 and a half? You are taller than nearly everyone? Im 6-2 and altough I am clearly taller than an average fellow, I am definitely NOT taller than "nearly all". There are lots and lots of people taller than me. 6-4 isnt a rare thing. I see plenty of 6-4+ fellows daily.
DarkOne says on 22/Mar/09
I don't understand,if in your photo he is actually 6'3,why do you list him at 6'4?
Losing an inch at 47 is ridiculous,my father is 56 and still 5'11 (his peak height).

Ace says on 18/Mar/09
He was taller than modine in full metal jacket sam. He does seem to me to be an honest 6`4
Matt thomas says on 16/Mar/09
Rob do you think he was probably atleast 6'3.5 though?

[Editor Rob: I think 6ft 4.]
Halb says on 16/Mar/09
Are you saying he is 6'2¾. Shouldn't you change the height?
Sam says on 16/Mar/09
Honestly, he didn't look any taller than Matthew Modine in Full Metal Jacket. Modine does have a leaner frame that makes him look very lanky.
Yaspaa says on 16/Mar/09
Works for me mate.
Yaspaa says on 15/Mar/09
Rob do you think he is 6'4 stretched out surely he can't be under 6'3,that's a giant cat amongs't the pidgeons if he is.

[Editor Rob: he was 6ft 4 for sure, still is?
well I'm not going to change his height.]
Anonymous says on 14/Mar/09
appears more of 6-3 than 6-4
Da Man says on 14/Mar/09
I see a weak 6'4", I do not understand the arguments for 6'4"+. This is actually exactly how I expected him to look.
Derek says on 13/Mar/09
He does have a fairly big noggin. I can see 6'4".
Alex says on 13/Mar/09
6'3 to 6'4 tops. Adam looks to have a longer head because 8 inches normally is up to the bottom lip of someone. His eye level looks to be 5 inches from the top of his head too.
adam says on 13/Mar/09
rob89 says on 13/Mar/09
Looks 6'3 tops

Bull.
sprint84 says on 13/Mar/09
Zachary Levi 6'2.5"
Michael Clarke Duncan 6'3"
Adam Baldwin 6'4"

This, along with the low-heeled sneakers Levi wears, would explain the relative height differences between them on Chuck.
rob89 says on 13/Mar/09
Looks 6'3 tops
adam says on 13/Mar/09
Could be 6-5 definitely. This is a big man.
Korben says on 13/Mar/09
awesome pics man hes one of my fav actors. Jayne cobb is one of the coolest characters ever (so is the series firefly lol). So cool you finally got a pic with him. Rob what do you estimate from the meeting. Looks like a strong 6'4, never doubted it.

[Editor Rob: Jenny's favorite character from Firefly aswell.
]
Yaspaa says on 13/Mar/09
Solid 6'4,good photo's too,thanks guys.
Patrick says on 10/Mar/09
But a "normal" big guy! I mean, natural. He was born as he is and that is obvious even for those who don't ever watched a TV movie he plaid in in 1980 or so. He was very young and was at least as mcuh impressive as he is today. He embodied a natural born super strong and tall young man.
Austrian says on 6/Mar/09
yea hes a big man
Joe says on 27/Feb/09
Both 6-4 and 6-5 sound very likely for him. Wish I was as big as this guy lol
Patrick says on 23/Feb/09
OK, I just watched the Chuck episode with M. C. Duncan who supposedly is 6'5. I always so him that height. There is about one inch difference between Zach Levy and him, the same as between the latter and "him", Adam Baldwin. Either M.C. Duncan is not 6'5 or Adam is taller than 6'4, what wouldn't surprise me more than "that"!
Ange says on 3/Feb/09
Can we say 6'4.5 and all go out for milkshakes?
Patrick says on 28/Jan/09
Yes adam, in Predator, he was clearly and almost surprisingly taller than Danny Glover.
Thence thinking he’s 6’5…it’s possible after all if Zach Levy is 6’4 (Chuck).
In that show, despite the heels difference (I never noticed but…) Adam stands one to two inches depending the angle, taller than Zachary.
miser says on 29/Oct/08
I think he really is 6-4. Would hire as my bodyguard. :-)
Ange says on 13/Oct/08
I'm with Adam on this one. He could beat Goldblum (slouch or not!) in ID-4 if they'd been close enough to judge.
adam says on 28/Sep/08
I insist he is taller than 6-4! Again, claiming 6-4 doesn´t mean anything. When you cross that line, you easily claim less than what you are. I would say about 6-5 for this guy. Was taller than Modine in FMJ and was taller than Glover in Predator 2.
Andrea says on 8/Sep/08
I think Modine is a good 6'4 and that would suggest that Adam Baldwin was 6'4.5 at least. Given the Independence Day thing and Goldblum's tendency to slouch, I think Baldwin has got to be either 6'5 or damn near close. It's harder to tell when they're all so tall, especially in ID4 when even the women seemed quite tall as well.
Anonymous says on 1/Sep/08
Korben, I believe Baldwin is actually taller than Jeff Goldblum. In Yaspaa's first photo it shows Baldwin guiding the people from Washington through Area 51. In that scene the people eventually walks pass Baldwin and when they do you see for a short moment Baldwin compared to Goldblum, and Goldblum looks shorter.
Anonymous says on 17/Jul/08
How tall is that short side kick on Chuck? Joshua Gomez.
Joe says on 18/Jun/08
Always thought he was taller. Like 6-5 at least. He looks huge every time I see him in a movie or on TV.
Yaspaa says on 21/May/08
He is well proportioned Patrick you are correct,as for the pictures, I just found them on the net ,there wasn't any freezing wizadry.. Clint Walker,one of very few guys back then who could make funnily enough, another Clint...Eastwood look weedy in comparison.
patrick says on 21/May/08
Wow! I'm impressed with those pics Yaspaa! Great ones because I had never been able to freeze the picture as you show it in “predator 2”. Yet Danny Glover looks so tall!
This guy is one of the real “natural” superman like man: naturally built as tank.
I remember a TV movie of the very early 80ies where he embodied a young almost retarded “hulk”. He was exactly as big (and tall too) as he is later.
Nothing to do with current “all the same mold made from” today’s actors!
The fact he’s a so broad shoulder and big arms guy makes him very well proportioned which can hides a bit his real height. I know just Clint Walker for looking as tall as he is while being even bulkier.
6’4 and nothing less for sure.
M.P. says on 7/May/08
He's definitely that tall on "Chuck."
Editor Rob says on 7/May/08
I met Adam and in person he's not over 6ft 4. He's a big solid guy.
brother_h says on 23/Dec/07
On Serenity he nearly looked an inch taller than Nathan fillion, so 6'3?.
its hard to tell because the cameras always angle so he looks taller(like one person said here)
yea, i say looks 6'3, must be 6'4.
Evelyn says on 29/Nov/07
i think adam being that tall is great he is a very goodlooking man so just for that his height is perfect.
Da Man says on 9/Oct/07
Looks about 6'3" on "Chuck".
Korben says on 8/Oct/07
Ok so i was very board and decided to do some comparsing with 2 of my favortie actors, jeff goldblum and adam baldwin. Using their side by sides with will smith, I know this isint perfect, but it pretty much pits them at excactly the same height. Goldblum MIGHT be like 0.5-1 cm taller but his hair is bigger so its harder to tell where his head is, where as baldwins army hair cut is much easier. Click Here
Fox says on 4/Jun/07
this guy at least is 6'3.5
Anonymous says on 22/Jan/07
watching Independence Day. He is 3 + inches taller than Will Smith. Easily 6'4"
Korben says on 13/Oct/06
Seems a CM or 2 taller then modine, who is maybe 0.5-1 cm shorter then Donofrio

i think youve got their 191 and 192 pretty accurate
Korben says on 2/Oct/06
definatly a big dude, looks easily 6'4 in serenity and firefly, pity theres no siede by side with goldblum in independance day

[Editor Rob: not lying, looks genuinely this tall]
KC says on 2/Aug/06
I grew up with Adam, he was 6'3" in HS
Ball-A-Hallic says on 31/Jul/06
he defently has 2 be 6'4 if not atleast 6'3.
Ed says on 7/Jul/06
Baldwin easily looks this tall, he does dwarf pretty much everybody in the cast except Fillion who he has a good 2 plus inches on. He's always looked tall in his movies from Next of Kin to Predator 2 where he's clearly taller than the 6ft3 Danny Glover.
TNTinCA says on 5/Jul/06
I have the Firefly and Serenity DVDs and I can honestly say that Adam looks a solid 6'4". He pretty much towers over everyone else in every episode.
Regus says on 2/Jul/06
In Trade Off he def. dwarfs Theresa Russell who has to be max 5-6 or so, so yeah this sounds about right.
J-Dog. says on 26/Mar/06
Viper, I don't understand your thought-process at all? Adam Baldwin clearly looks at least 6'4" and beside Nathan Fillion I am not sure how you can arrive at that assumption.

There's little reason for him to lie or "wear lifts" when it can obviously impede his career at his current height.
me says on 23/Mar/06
Um, maybe that picture would be reliable if they were closer together and you could be sure they were on level ground.
Anonymous says on 5/Nov/05
how is baldwin shorter then modine, he was clearly taller in full metal jacket by about an inch.

I believe modine is a solid 6'3" which makes baldwin a solid 6'4"
CelebHeights Editor says on 2/Nov/05
"I'm a big 6'4" guy. It's hard for me to play other than that in a room, so my wife has this joke when I walk home from an audition. She said, 'Did they ask you how tall you are?' and if I say yes, I didn't get the job. She's like, 'Aw, you're doomed.' Because if they don't ask, it doesn't matter"
guypop says on 7/Aug/05
I've met adam baldwin at a convention and I stood next to him (I'm 6'2) and he was a lot taller than me he IS 6'4 I'm 100% sure of it.
Mr. X says on 7/Jul/05
Originally thought this guy was no more than 6 ft 2 because I had him confused with one of the Baldwin brothers (never saw Full Metal Jacket). But after I realized who he really was I was surprised he was only 6'4". He's a good 6'4", thought he might even be 6'5". In Predator 2 he was taller than 6'3.5" Danny Glover, and in Independence he looked slightly taller than 6'4" Jeff Goldblum. I wrote a comment saying Peter Coyote looks to be trying to hit 6'1", but after closer observation I might had been short changing Coyote a bit. Coyote could actually be close to 6'3". In the show the Inside though Adam is more noticably taller than Peter.
Mr. R says on 28/Jun/05
Viper, we agree again. Matthew is a little over 6-2, so we should adjust Adam accordingly. I had a dinner with Matthew a few years ago. GREAT GUY!
MHouillon says on 28/Jun/05
A definitely 6'4". Maybe 6'4.5". Almost taller tahn 6'4" Matthew Modine in "Full Metal Jacket".
