James says on 11/Oct/08
it does it make it easier as well to compare heights in his photos if they are larger
James says on 10/Oct/08
How come glenns pic is not showing up on the page?

[Editor Rob: a lot of the older photos I am going to find the original email glenn sent and make sure the size and orientation is correct, some old ones I showed smaller to begin with.]
Ange says on 7/Oct/08
Wow, that seems low for him. I remember seeing him at the Sherman Oaks Galleria in the 90s and he didn't seem that "short". He seemed much taller. I didn't notice whether or not his footwear was dodgy though. I'm 5'1 btw.
Davidoff says on 13/Sep/08
He doesnt wear lifts but in most movies he does wear thick timberlands.
Clay says on 29/Aug/08
Can look 5'11'' in some films, 5'10'' in others. He doesnt wears lifts either.
James says on 26/Aug/08
looks 5ft10.5 to me in his films
Anonymous says on 20/Aug/08
always seemed 5'11.25"
Daii says on 6/Aug/08
He looks like your typical guy walking down the street, bang on 5'10 no more or less
Mr. R says on 6/Aug/08
What does + 1 mean Danimal?
Clay says on 5/Aug/08
Danimal if he is 5'9'' tops that puts Kevin James a shade under 5'8'', which I just cant see. Sandler looks completely average to me in all types of footwear, I cant see him not being a 5'10'' guy. Just my two cents, I have never seen em in the flesh.
Danimal says on 4/Aug/08
Mr. R says on 4/Aug/08
I ran into Adam a few years ago, and expected him to be closer to 5-11. He wasn't. He is between 5-8 and 5-9.

Danimal says on 4/Aug/08
The man used to describe himself as 5'9" on Saturday Night Live. NO WAY is he taller than that. They boosted his height to 5'10" when he made it in the movies.
Brian says on 3/Aug/08
I saw Sandler on a basketball court in L.A. It took me a second to recognize him primarily because he was much shorter than I expected. I believe he was no taller than 5'9"
Anamalech says on 4/Jul/08
He looks like a legit 5'11 guy.
Kyle says on 29/Jun/08
He towers people in Zohan.
Jay says on 20/Jun/08
Ill agree with 5'10 but I just watched Chuck and Larry last night and he looked pretty close to 5'11 in alot of scenes. Sandler has gotta few funny movies but he also has his production company Happy Madison which also makes good movies, Sandlers not in them but he helps produce them and what not, two words, Grandmas Boy, funniest movie ever period.
Anonymous says on 6/Jun/08
I always thought he was around 5'6"-5'8" but realized it was because all of his earlier movie's he was around tall guys, kevin Nielen, Norm McDonald, Apollo Creed... After seein Zohan, 5'10" seems about right, he towers over most cast members
Clay says on 19/May/08
He said he's 5'11'' during an interview for the longest yard so maybe he's like 5'10.25 - 5'10.5.
zedrein says on 19/May/08
Adam looks to be in better shape for his upcoming role (You Don't Mess With The Zohan) So maybe his posture is a little better? I wouldn't be suprised if he is pushing 5' 11" nowadays.
Clay says on 14/May/08
Yeah, I dont know how some of you really dont like Sandler. He has made some great movies (Happy Gilmore, The Wedding Singer, Anger Management, 50 first dates) and he has showed he can also be a good serious actor too. Just a great overall talent. And yeah, he has always looked 5'10'' to me.
Chris175 says on 19/Apr/08
you guys obviously havent watched happy gilmore or big daddy or the other great movies he has made, i think he is great. good upgrade rob although he doesnt look it he is 178
Chris says on 10/Apr/08
Not a lot taller than Kevin James. 5'9.5" I think.
Anonymous says on 5/Apr/08
Amen Leon, amen
Leon says on 28/Mar/08
A term used frequently on this site that I don't like is 'upgraded' when somebody is taller than he was originally thought to be or 'downgraded' when he's shorter than expected. It sounds as though suddenly gaining half an inch in height makes you a better human being.
Anonymous says on 18/Mar/08
haha. sf I agree! I always thought that sandler is taller. Bbut when I watched him in Mixed Nuts with Steve Martin, I literally went like "What the f***?"
Plus, I hate him, he is not a comedian, in fact not funny at all. Ben Stiller, Steve Martin, Steve Carell and others are funnier
sf says on 6/Mar/08
Rob - I'm with you - actually laughing at an Adam Sandler movie may very well be worth a little extra height for him. How can I turn a minimal amount of talent and humor into $20 million dollar movie paydays???
dmeyer says on 3/Mar/08
rob you are right after looking at pics,he looks 1.5 in taller than 174 james about 2 in taller than 173.3 cheadle and the same as 178 rock 178 is right can look 5'9 sometimes because of posture ,he looks a 178 cm guy

[Editor Rob: to answer other question, Bruce 6ft peak is as possible yes, 6ft 1 is also possible. But in my opinion that is a much lower possibility than 5ft 11.5-6ft range to me.

The more you see of someone then the more your opinion can be formed or become more certain in your mind.]
dmeyer says on 3/Mar/08
rob is there a reason you upgreat him from 177.3 to 177.8

[Editor Rob: I laughed at one of his movies...which is rare, so he got back the 1/4.

No, I think he has a weak stance sometimes, but then standing properly is more 178.]
Anonymous says on 19/Feb/08
wasnt he downgraded once to 5'9 n 3/4...nyways he looks 5'10 to me

[Editor Rob: yes, but maybe 178 is closer.]
nate says on 18/Feb/08
definitely 5-10. average height.
Matt says on 16/Feb/08
lol at the early 90s look all 3 of you have...its not a criticism at all though, i absolutely loved the look!
dmeyer says on 10/Feb/08
sandler is 5'9.5 to 5'10
david says on 9/Feb/08
i work at cedar sinai hospital and he was there. hes at least 5 10, i walked right past him.
anonamous says on 9/Feb/08
omg!!! i love adam sandler sooooooooooooooooooooooo much.
hes soooooooooooo funny. and at least hes taller than me.
Leung says on 28/Jan/08
I agree, he's 5'10" and sometimes with a bad slouch looks shorter.
chris175 says on 21/Dec/07
yeah about 5-10, bad slouch, end of story, great actor
Anonymous says on 9/Dec/07
Hes at least 5ft 10, he doesnt look any shorter than this,
anthony says on 19/Nov/07
hey franco you r funny man,do you know when they film movies they try to put actors at the same height!! i talk to him a week ago iam 175cm he is really 177 179 trust me.
GTIME79 says on 22/Oct/07
In the movie airheads, he looked short because Brendan Frasier is around 6'3
Brah says on 13/Oct/07
Sandler was about 1 inch taller than Don Cheadle throughout 'Reign Over Me', miles.
Height Tracker says on 15/Sep/07
I saw that movie and he was only about an inch, possibly a little more taller than Kevin James. James is around 5'8" in my opinion.
miles smiles says on 3/Sep/07
Has anyone else noticed how much taller Sandler looks than Don Cheadle in that recent movie they did together?
dave says on 22/Aug/07
White...how do you explain Sandler's clear height advantage over 5'8.5 Kevin James? Adams in the 5'10'' range - just watch the Longest yard.
I Know It All says on 17/Aug/07
He is up to 5'10", but like Glenn sayed, he's famous for horrendous posture!! David Spade's short!!!
White says on 12/Aug/07
Sandler he is like 5'8 at most..I know a girl who hung out with him and stated he is about the same height as her and she is 5'6....give me a break..
Mark says on 2/Aug/07
I ran into this guy a few years ago. Stood right next to him for a few seconds. I was 5'11", and had an inch or two on him. id give him 5'9.5". probably 5'9.25"
Alex says on 1/Aug/07
He actually could be 5'10 at most. My guess for him right now is 5'9 1/2.
dmeyer says on 25/Jul/07
he does look very average not short not tall so 5'9.25 to 5'9.75 176 177 cm
glenn says on 10/Jun/07
stretched out he is over 5-9.he has horrendous posture.
Alex says on 10/Jun/07
Mr.R on TV he looks like an average guy height wise anyway.
Mr. R says on 10/Jun/07
I met him the night before The Golden Globe Awards, and he is a little under
5-9. Yes, he does seem taller on screen, but he is not.
Alex says on 9/Jun/07
At the movies awards this year he was only the same height as Jessica Biel in heels and he has on sneakers. He didn't look anymore than 5'10 in sneakers so 5'9 barefoot I think is most accurate.
Josh says on 29/May/07
5'9 barefoot 5'10 with shoes .
sleuth says on 16/May/07
why does everybody keep assuming 40 years olds shrink? sometimes 40 year olds might forget their lifts but they don't shrink.
kevin says on 8/May/07
if you watch punch drunk love there is a scene at the end of the movie with phillip s hoffman face to face and both are exactly the same height. so hes 175 like hoffman maybe 176.
Jason Donovan says on 30/Apr/07
I think he was 5'10-11, just look at him in Billy Madison next to that chick who is listed between 5'8-9
I guess he could've lost some height by now but I doubt he's under 5'10.
Clive says on 14/Feb/07
Yeah 5'9.5 is the right estimation, on the film "Anger Management" he doesn't look so much taller than Nicholson :
Click Here

I saw "Click" yesterday and I really think he's under 5'10.
dmeyer says on 31/Dec/06
he could be a 5'10 morning
alan says on 22/Dec/06
adam and david looks goofy years earlier!
dmeyer says on 20/Dec/06
looks 5'9 near david but david could be 194
J-Baz says on 18/Dec/06
He's 5'10. I see him at the UCLA Wooden Center all the time. He might look shorter because he has a big back.
Baz says on 16/Dec/06
ye viper652, hasselhoff looks about 6'6 in tht photo mayb
Brad says on 9/Dec/06
Solid 5' 9".
Glenn says on 19/Nov/06
You could be right Alex.he is between 5-9 and 5-10.
Alex says on 19/Nov/06
In Airheads with Brendon Fraser & Steve Buscemi he looked quite short. I will give him 5'9" for now.
Spence says on 15/Nov/06
I think hes real close to 5'10 if you look at those pictures w Hasslehoff he def looks 177 at least.
Viper652 says on 13/Nov/06
Is it just me or does Hasselhoff look taller than 6-4 there?
Josh says on 11/Nov/06
Hes 5'9 barefoot 5'10 with shoes on.
kyle says on 1/Nov/06
I agree 5ft10 is his height. He does look shorter at times but I agree when standing straight up he's 5'10".

Great actor
Glenn says on 1/Nov/06
He is 5-10.but looks shorter due to his posture.
dmeyer says on 26/Oct/06
people that know sandler tell me i could be a stand in for him we have the same hair but its a shame i am 2 inches taller people tell he is considerably shorter so he must be not mush over 5'9
vincent says on 24/Oct/06
Guys, Sandler's height is 5-8.5.
Type in "Kasey Kahne height" in google.
Kasey Kahne is a nascar driver and he is 5'9"
and now look at this picture at Sandler's website.
Click Here
and see when he was talking with Kahne, more or less their height are the same.
(btw, the NASCAR picture might not be there for a long time, at least when I am writing this, it's still there)
Anonymous says on 29/Sep/06
177 look closer some one that stood in for him told me i was 2 imches taller than him so 176 177 is closer
Davi Rossignolli from Brazil says on 11/Sep/06
Hi!
I think that Sandler had 178cm, because in the movie Anger Management he is looking 1-2 inches shorter than John Turturro listed in 184cm. (and sorry for my bad language).
Bye!!!
C says on 7/Sep/06
5'10"??? Are you sure??? He is a clip of Billy Madison where Sandler is looking 2-3 inches taller than a reportedly 5'9'' Bridgette Wilson.

Click Here

Sandler had on some suspicious footwear but Wilson's heels even things out.
Glenn says on 5/Aug/06
True Rob.
Glenn says on 4/Aug/06
The thing is frank p,Sandler is near 5-10.Burt is wearing lifts to match that.thats the confusion.or Sandler is at least 5-9.25 and Burt is liftless.Burt was possibly 5-10 in his youth.now 5-9.

[Editor Rob: burt did wear those higher topped footwear in longest yard...he could have shrank and now is needing bigger lifts just to look 5ft 10!]
Anonymous says on 28/Jul/06
Sandler is 5'10 EASILY.
Glenn says on 17/Jul/06
5-9.5 suits me more.
15and5'8.5 says on 13/Jul/06
yeah, i agree that adam sandlers 5'9'' also
RobM says on 25/Jun/06
Sandler always appeared to me to be much taller, I had him pegged for being over 6ft. Seems I was mistaken.
Viper652 says on 18/Jun/06
I agree with the 5-9 as well.
MHouillon says on 16/Jun/06
Adam Sandler is a solid 176cm. Yes, yes, yes !
MHouillon says on 13/Jun/06
No, no, no. Just saw "Mr. Deeds". 176cm (5'9.25") maximum for Adam Sandler !!!

[Editor Rob: are you turning into Frank? I've not heard the treble no's for a while :-0]
johnny says on 27/May/06
When Sandler is 5'10 than Chris Rock can't be 5'11 tall because he is smaller than Adam.
don says on 11/May/06
he himself has said before hes no more then 5'9..its why most of the time he has on big stupid ass beige shoes..with the massive heel all the rappers wear..timbersomething...id say 5.9...absolutely no taller
height seeker says on 27/Apr/06
eman says on 15/Jan/06
I say he is 5'9.5 because on snl with 2pac at the end him and 2pac look the same hight & 2pac is 5'9.5. did any one see that snl it was cool.

Do You happen to have a link to a picture of adam sandler and 2pac, id like to see them together, anyway if you do could u pls post it thx, c ya gonna chk google images
D. Ray Morton says on 14/Apr/06
Glenn, when was this photo snapped?
kyle says on 12/Apr/06
I was watching the movie Bulletproof with him in it and he does look about 5 ft 10.
trueheight says on 6/Apr/06
spade morel like 5'5 in that pic at best
CoolJ says on 6/Mar/06
dmeyer: Sandler is standing far back .. come on now

I never was convinced he was 5'10" .. He tends to wear boots a lot..

5'9 seems good to me.
Glenn says on 5/Mar/06
Im guessing 5-9.
dmeyer says on 5/Mar/06
in that pic with glenn he looks 5'6
Bowes/McDougall says on 3/Mar/06
Bridgette Wilson looks about 2 inches shorter than him in Billy Madison. Either she's 5'8 or Sandler is pushing 5'11.
CoolJ says on 12/Feb/06
Sandler looked to be within .5" of Nicholson give or take in scenes of Anger Management.. I think that puts him between 5'8.5-5'9.5
Danimal says on 21/Jan/06
Spade used to say he was 5'7", but was listed at 5'6". I agree with you Glenn that he is 5'5". Was Chris Farley really 5'8", or was he shorter than that? I say 5'7".
Glenn says on 20/Jan/06
spade is 5-5.
Mr. R says on 20/Jan/06
Okay, I saw Adam last Sunday at a restaurant. He walked past me, and I stood behind him in line to get a table. At his tallest, he is 5-9. Truly, he is probably about a half inch shorter.
elio says on 20/Jan/06
Seeing as Chris Farley (who was around 5'7-5'8") always seemed to be noticeably taller than Spade then it's not much of a surprise.
UNK says on 20/Jan/06
Yeah, that definitely looks like Spade... people say he is 5'5" - 5'6". I don't think he wears chunky shoes, so maybe Glenn has a heel advantage on him and maybe he is not standing straight.
CelebHeights Editor says on 20/Jan/06
Pic of Glenn (closer to camera) near Adam and erm...David Spade (I think), looking short!
eman says on 15/Jan/06
I say he is 5'9.5 because on snl with 2pac at the end him and 2pac look the same hight & 2pac is 5'9.5. did any one see that snl it was cool.
Mason says on 16/Dec/05
My stepbrother is 5' 10.5" and Adam and him looked about the same height. I'd say 5' 10" is correct.
spankymcdoogen says on 4/Dec/05
I say Adam Sandler's a solid 5'9 at most. After seeing the scene in mr deeds with tennis legend John Mcenroe, i saw at least a few inches difference between the two and with Mcenroe being 5'11, there you go...

[Editor Rob: remember, McEnroe is claiming to have grown an inch and now 6ft ;)]
Anonymous says on 29/Oct/05
no way he is 5'10", more like 5'6"-5'7", Chris rock admitted on the Tonight Show that celebs add 4" to themselves. But who really knows?
MD says on 21/Oct/05
That is beacause Nelly is actually a strong 5'8" barefoot. Add in and inch for shoes for each, and it works out.
Ball-A-Hallic says on 20/Oct/05
I've always assumed Sandler was a solid 5'9 he's taller than Nelly but still looks smaller next 2 the 5'10 Reynolds and 5'11 Chris Rock.
CoolJ says on 17/Oct/05
After watching the Longest Yard.. I'm leaning toward 5'9.5.. which would make Reynolds around 5'10.. But Rock is taller than both of them.. hmm
DP says on 23/Sep/05
I'd say he's an easy 5'9" and NOT the 5'10" that's being reported. No shorter and no taller. I'm his same height and I also add a little lift in my shoes to compensate for the shrink factor in aging.
JS says on 29/May/05
No way he's near 6'. Check him out in Anger Management. 5'9 - 5'9.5 is prolly about right.
dmeyer says on 29/May/05
if fishtner is 184 then adam is pushing 6' and he does look only half a inch shorter than burt raynolds who is 182 cm
Mr. R says on 24/May/05
Last night on Sportscenter, they did a piece on Sandler learning hot to quarterback for The Longest Yard. He stated "I'm not too tall...I got a little Flutie in me (referring to the 5-9 quarterback) ..only 5-11". Truth or a lie?
Anonymous says on 13/Mar/05
When he was doing a behind the scenes preview for that new football movie he was in, he said about playing the quarterback position that he wasnt the typical tall QB at 5'11...But I think he's adding at least an inch to what he really is
Anonymous says on 19/Feb/05
I had seen him on a street in New York, with some model-type girl who was taller than him. He walked right next to me onward. He seemed short, 5'7" or 5'8". He was at least 3-4 inches shorter than me; I'm 5'11.5"-6'0".
