Hugh 190-192cm says on 14/Mar/10
If Baldwin is 182cm then Martin like 184cm which is too much
Anonymous says on 12/Mar/10
Steve martin cannot be 5'11 unless Baldwin and Hanks uses lifts.
And even if Baldwin used lifts, Martin is 5'11 in his prime, but I don't personally believe that Martin is that tall, more like 5'10? J.J. says on 11/Mar/10
Are you guys joking because I swear I saw them look the same hector says on 10/Mar/10
If you look at my posts on the martin page, you can clearly see that Baldwin is shorter thant 6ft Tom Hanks and a least 1 inch taller than Steve martin. Steve martin cannot be 5'11 unless Baldwin and Hanks uses lifts. kevin says on 9/Mar/10
posted on the martin page that baldwin was smaller than martin at the oscars. if steve martin is 181-182cm now than baldwin is no taller than 180cm. but twenty years ago baldwin was much slimmer and could have been 182cm. i think he forgot his lifts that night cause he can still look close to 6ft occasionally. Anonymous says on 9/Mar/10
Watch the Oscars! Baldwin is clearly 1 inch shorter than Steve Martin.
More like 2 inches TALLER than Martin. Baldwin uses lifts? Martin is absolutely under 5'11. Stiffelio says on 7/Mar/10
Watch the Oscars! Baldwin is clearly 1 inch shorter than Steve Martin. So no way is he 5ft 11.5in. I'd say between 178 and 180cm max. Adam says on 6/Mar/10
He is 180cm height.No more. 191cm/252lbs says on 26/Jan/10
Lenad you couldnt be more bang on. Baldwin is 179cm barefoot. I think at least Rob should put Baldwin back to the original 180cm height. I just got It's Complicated on my Itouch. Throughout the entire movie 182cm listed Steve Martin is taller than Alec and has more height over 5"6 Meryl Streep aswell. Lenad says on 26/Jan/10
Probably 182cm with shoes and 179cm barefoot. He was the same height as 169cm Kate Hudson when she was probably in 5 inch heels Christine says on 25/Jan/10
Tracy, he is standing farther back from Billy and therefore looks much much shorter than he actually is... I posted a pic of them standing side by side, yes still Billy is taller. Christine says on 25/Jan/10
Alec, when next to the average hollywood men looks taller than most, however this is a new pic with him and Billy and he is way shorter... so what is the best new guesses for each of their heights?
Click Here Tracy says on 25/Jan/10
He is much shorter than his brother William who is 6'1" tall in this pic.

Hugh, now you're stating you weight too? I know I\\\'m right says on 19/Jan/10
5'11" Steve Hartin has shrunk. He's 64 now. THAT'S why baldwin seems taller. Because Martin is like 5'10" now. 191cm/252lbs says on 19/Jan/10
180cm today sarah says on 8/Jan/10
i saw him at best buy on christmas eve
looks to be about 5'11" tops, i'm 5'10" and he had barely any height over me he has bad posture though... Hugh 190-192cm says on 28/Dec/09
2 inches max indeed anonymous. more like 1-1.5 inches. Seriously Rob, do you really think this guy is 182cm. because he has always looked shorter than legit 5"11-6"0 guys like Leonardo DiCaprio and Bruce Willis. anonymous says on 24/Dec/09
Stephen Baldwin is 5'9" and he's not that much shorter than 5'11" Alec Baldwin: Click Here Click Here maximum two inch difference between both. Hugh 191cm says on 24/Dec/09
Great pic mcfan
your absolutely right this guy must wear lifts.
5"11 tops! RisingForce says on 24/Dec/09
Baldwin is not 5'11" flat. I saw Stephen in person years ago and he's average, probably somewhere around 5'9". There's a noticeable height difference between Alec and Stephen. mcfan says on 23/Dec/09
I don't trust Alec Baldwin with his height - a true lift-fiend like Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise. How can he appear over an inch taller than Steve Martin on SNL then later appear an inch shorter later on? Here he is without lifts:
Click Here Hugh 191cm says on 22/Dec/09
Rob have you seen any pics of Alec next to his taller brothers both listed 6"1 and 6"2. He is way shorter. The original 5"11(180cm) listing is closer to the mark. Hugh 191cm says on 21/Dec/09
5"11 flat and NO more. Willa says on 21/Dec/09
He's about 5-11, not short. I stood RIGHT NEXT to him in line at LGA airport in July (we were both going to Syracuse). He does look quite overweight, old and walks like an old man. 191cm is Royalty says on 13/Dec/09
I think Steve Martin is 182cm and Baldwin 180cm. Sumppi says on 12/Dec/09
I think he's a lot taller than 5'11" (182cm) Click Here Here is a picture where he stand next to Bootsy Collins and he is 6'2,5! kevin says on 12/Dec/09
today beetlejuice was on tv and he looked the same height as geena davies. she was barefoot and he had shoes on. if shes 6ft, i think hes a strong 5ft 11in, maybe 5ft 11.25in is more accurate. Leung says on 12/Dec/09
182cm seems accurate. I'm interested in seeing his new movie and seeing how he measures up next to Steve Martin. 191cm is Royalty says on 11/Dec/09
no doubt Mr. R, one of the cockiest men showbiz. Followed by Jimmy Smits, then Colin Firth. Mr. R says on 10/Dec/09
A NASTY NASTY MAN! I saw him in New York after a show, and he just ignored a woman in a wheelchair seeking his autograph. Talented yes; but COMPLETELY full of himself! Hugh 191cm says on 6/Dec/09
179-180cm for Alec and 176cm for Stephen KDS says on 4/Dec/09
Thought the Baldwin Bros would be nearly the same height. Hugh 191cm says on 17/Nov/09
He's 180cm max Matthiew_- says on 11/Nov/09
He looks a good 5 inches taller or even more then Kim Basinger in the shower scene of " The Getaway " so unless Mr Baldwin showers and makes love with his shoes/elevator shoes ( a possibility I wouldn't rule out in Hollywood ) , either he is a strong 182cm or Mrs Basinger is not 5'7
For the record I see him being 5'11 to 5'11.5 and Kim at 5'6 to 5'6.5 Hugh 191cm says on 25/Oct/09
It's fine if you call me just Hugh, ace. I'd still think you were talking to me. I don't really think this has been over 5ft11 except maybe out of bed. Ace says on 23/Oct/09
I meant to add that Hugh 191 cm. Sorry about that.
Although judging from photos when he was younger, i would say he looks a very solid 5`11.5 (maybe even 6`0). Hugh 191cm says on 19/Oct/09
Thats because he wears lifts Ace. Just like Dicaprio and brad Pitt. Ace says on 18/Oct/09
Nah Hugh, he looks a full 5`11.5. He actually does look taller in the show 30 Rock (being barely shorter than 6`1 David Schwimmer (who was in converse though), and holding up quite well to Will Arnett Hugh 191cm says on 18/Oct/09
180cm max Hugh 191cm says on 16/Oct/09
maybe even 179cm Hugh 191cm says on 8/Oct/09
5ft11 max. Hugh 191cm says on 5/Oct/09
Steve Baldwin 176-177cm
Alec Baldwin 180cm
Daniel Baldwin 187-188cm
William Baldwin 188-189cm Hugh 191cm says on 25/Sep/09
5ft11 max nowadays with the possibility of being a bit under. Hugh 191cm says on 18/Sep/09
181-182cm maybe peak? 5ft11 tops now. Hugh 191cm says on 8/Aug/09
This guy never looked 6ft or even close in my opinion. 180cm tops. Jake says on 21/Jul/09
I think he could be 6' as he looked 8-9 cm taller than Anthony Hopkins in The Edge. teddy89 says on 18/Jul/09
my heights: 173.7 morning, 173 afternoon and 172.3 night. sometimes in the morning i am 174 and more and i remain 173 all day, but i think my height is 173 cm. James S says on 15/Jul/09
When he brought his daughter with him that one night and said she was 5'9, Alec was looking almost eye to with her also considering she was wearing heels...so I put him at 5'11 yes. Hugh 191cm says on 14/Jul/09
This is how my height fluctuates
192cm morning
191cm afternoon
190cm night
My overall height is 191cm. yoney says on 12/Jul/09
I am 182 cm and I have always thought he was a bit taller than me. Still, when I look at his photos, 182 cm makes sense. He probably knows his business with shoes! teddy89 says on 11/Jul/09
hugh did you grow 1 cm? Lol :) teddy89 says on 8/Jul/09
Yes hugh190cm. Maybe u also can search the scene on youtube. I believed that hugh grant was on a stair but then alec hugs julia roberts and in that scene it seems like when i kid hugs a mom :) i don't wanna say something not real, but i guess 1 inch shorter than her. Didn't see if she wore heels but a 5'11 guy surely wouldn't have given that impression. Even because notting hill gives the proof that julia roberts is no more that 5'7 barefoot (4 inches shorter than hugh when they r both barefoot) Lenad says on 6/Jul/09
182cm is the most he could possibly be but 181cm is probably closer to the truth Hugh 191cm says on 5/Jul/09
5ft11 max. No more. I do beleive he was 3-4 inches shorter than 6ft2 sean Connery. Hmmm hugh grant taller than Baldwin. Not suprised. teddy89 says on 3/Jul/09
i always thought he was 6'1 or about that, but i just saw again notting hill and in the first scene he appears he INCREDIBLY looks very very very short next to 5'11 hugh grant!!! Even shorter than julia roberts!!! I'm not kidding! You can see the movie and confirm. Hugh 190cm says on 1/Jul/09
6ft0.5 in 2 inch lifts. So 5ft10.5 barefoot. But I'll give him 5ft11 flat. 182cm is too much. He's never really looked over 5ft11 to me ever. Ace says on 28/Jun/09
In 30 Rock, he looked 6`0.5 next to both Schwimmer and Will Arnett. I do believe he wears some form of height enhancing shoes. Although, i find it hard to believe Hugh that he is under 5`11.5 Hugh 190cm says on 20/Jun/09
probably wore lifts. Hugh 190cm says on 12/Jun/09
Not quite Dmeyer. This guy isn't looking 6f at all these days. In 30 Rock he wears lifts which give him nearly 2 inches. He looked barely 6ft next to 6ft2.5 Will Arnett but then theres a scene when Baldwin and Arnett go jogging and Arnett towers over him by 3-4 inches.
Aswell Baldwin is noticeably shorter than his two younger brothers. I'd say barefoot Alec is 5ft10.5.
But for good measure I'll give him 5ft11 flat. But no more than that. But I will say that in the late 80's when Baldwin's career in Film & TV he could pass for 6ft. But he was slimmer back then. Over the years he's but on loads of weight. It might be the reason he has developed a bit of an attitude. Hugh 190cm says on 8/Jun/09
The tallest I've seen was in the Departed next to Matt Damon and Mark Wahlberg when maybe I'd have said 6ft. vikr09 says on 8/Jun/09
Hugh, I'm not confuting your comment, but as I mentioned, I saw the guy about 11 years ago, although I do have quite a good recollection of that. He had a minimum of two inches on me, and as I also said, I'm a flat 5'10 without footwear, and was, on the day, in stuff that lifted me to about half an inch below the 6 feet mark. The difference could of course be down to what he was wearing, then again, I did not really look at his feet, so it's a hard call to make. It is a possibility that, in the intervening decade, he's lost an inch or so.
For my part, I'm still in my mid-thirties and if I have lost any height at all, it wouldn't be more than a couple of millimetres at most. Lenad says on 6/Jun/09
Yeah Hugh he didnt look as low as 5'10.5 with Jim Carrey Hugh 190cm says on 5/Jun/09
I will admit, back in the 80's in films like Married to the Mob Baldwin could appear tallish. Hugh 190cm says on 4/Jun/09
I can buy 5ft11. I'm not certain if he's any taller. Hugh 190cm says on 3/Jun/09
vikr09, Baldwin is not over 5ft11 these days. The absolute most I can buy for this guy peak is 181cm. vikr09 says on 2/Jun/09
I'd say he is, or at least was at his peak, no shorter than 6 feet. Barefoot, I'm exactly 5 ft 10 (1.78m). Over 10 years ago, in 1998 maybe, I once beheld him at pretty close range in a department store in London, from a distance of about 4/4.5 feet, not more than that. He towered above me by at least 2 inches, and I was wearing shoes that brought me up to about 5 ft 11.5 (1.81 m). The surface on which we were both standing was, of course, level. Hugh 190cm says on 30/May/09
6ft2! This guy is not taller than 5ft11. obzervi says on 28/May/09
Wow for some reason this guy looked really tall in The Edge, I was expecting him to be like 6'2 Hugh 190cm says on 27/May/09
5ft6 is a bit harsh. I beleive he's 5ft11 flat. Pat says on 23/May/09
I judge an actor's heighby movie shots in crowds and when alone. If an actor is shot alone walking through a door he is unlikely to bother with wearing lifts. Baldwin in Heaven's Prisoners looks to be about 5'6". George Clooney also looks very short in his recent post war Germany movie.
In every scene in every movie Baldwin is always the shortest man on camera. He appears to be about two or three inches shorter than average Ali says on 22/May/09
No way man. This guy wears big lifts. Look at his
body proportions.
He is 5'9 or so barefoot. He has a small torso, small
hands. One can ''see'' him walking on the big shoes+lifts.
I do like his acting. Hugh 190cm says on 18/May/09
5ft11 flat. Big T says on 18/May/09
This guy must always wear major lifts on 30 Rock.
He looked the same height as Schwimmer and AT MOST 3 inches shorter than Conan. He's 6'1" on the show. Hugh 190cm says on 16/May/09
No, 6ft is laughable. He's 5ft11 tops and possible a bit less. Sean says on 15/May/09
5 ft 11.5 is laughable. This guy looks no more than 5 ft 10 TOPS!! anonymous says on 14/May/09
He's 6 foot next to 6 foot 2 david letterman. He seems tall. 5 foot 9 is laughable. D. Ray Morton says on 11/May/09
Wasn't he in My Bodyguard? :-) Lenad says on 9/May/09
Might be a lift wearer which would explain him looking nearly as tall as Jim Carrey Mike says on 9/May/09
If I had to guess he was probably 5'9 and that would be generous Mike says on 9/May/09
Again I am 6ft with no shoes again at the airport where you take shoes off to go through security he was at least two inches shorter than me. Lenad says on 9/May/09
I think a weak 5ft11 like 179-180cm is most likely but He looked only marginally shorter than strong 6'1 Jim Carrey (185-186cm). This guy is hard to pin! Hugh 190cm says on 9/May/09
I see 5ft11 flat. Anonymous says on 6/May/09
5ft11 flat is what I see. MD says on 4/May/09
Mike, how incredibly ridiculous of you to post. That was a waste of my time every reading it. Rob should go through these more often and delete that stuff that obviously meant to waste time. leonari says on 4/May/09
mike: Thats the biggest crap I have ever read. Seriously. Get a life and stop posting this ****. 5'7" Alec baldwin. What a joke. mike says on 4/May/09
I was behind him in Reagan international airport in DC I'm 6 ft he was shorter than me. But when the shoes came off to go through security he really got short.
I would guess maybe 5'7 and that's being generous. Shame when wear lifters in their shoes to seem taller Hugh says on 1/May/09
Alec Baldwin is probably scraping 5ft11 nowadays. Anonymous says on 30/Apr/09
6ft is a complete joke. 5ft11 tops. Anonymous says on 30/Apr/09
He's 180cm max. Anonymous says on 28/Apr/09
It's a way of saying he is shorter yes. Sorry if it's a little harsh. Anonymous says on 28/Apr/09
It's a way of saying he is shorter yes. Sorry if it's a little harsh. ChucktheSchmuck says on 20/Apr/09
Hugh 190 cm: Getting owned? because he is shorter...? Hugh 190cm says on 7/Apr/09
Doug I'm sorry I respect your claims overall but I have to diagree with you here. Baldwin is not 6ft and I don't think he's 182cm either. This listing is too much. He's 5ft11 MAX. he's 3 inches shorter than both of his brothers and looks no taller than Kevin Spacey in Glengarry Glenross and is getting owned by Sean Connery in Hunt for Red October. He's 50 now so he's likely to have lost 1cm. Doug also you are forgetting Stephen Baldwin who isn't quite 5ft10. So 2 out of 4 of the Baldwin Brotehrs are under 6ft. William Bladwin and Daniel Baldwin I'll admit are both well over 6ft. On 30 Rock he looks 5ft10-5ft11 tops. So I personally think he's barely 5ft11 today. Maybe in shoes he's close to 6ft. I'd peg Alec at around 179cm barefoot. He was also shorter than Leo Dicaprio by half an inch to 1 inch. Doug says on 6/Apr/09
There is only 2-2.5 inches height difference between Alec and William. Nothing more. Baldwin is minimum 5'11.5", maybe even 6' but he is heavier built so looks shorter. He was roughly the same size as Leo di Caprio I thought so he has to be a weak 6'0 like Leo. Doug says on 6/Apr/09
I always saw this guy as a strong 6'. I thought he was nearer 6'1" in shoes. The shortest of the brothers but I doubt any of them are under 6'. \-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 21/Feb/09
In Beetle Juice he was slightly shorter than Geena. Mr. R. says on 30/Jan/09
Alec is close to 5-11, but not quite. I saw him in New York. Hugh says on 29/Jan/09
Maybe he wears lifts. James, I think his stocky frame can make him appear shorter. Okay, 10-15 maybe 20 years ago this guys could've passed for 6ft guy because he was slimmer. Hugh says on 23/Jan/09
He doesn't look over 5ft11 these days. Prime possibly. Lenad says on 22/Jan/09
When he stands next to Jim Carrey I think Alec might wear lifts in movies at times to make himself at least 6ft0. There is no way a barefoot 5'10.5 would appear that tall next to a 6'1 Unless Jim Carrey is only 5ft11 which is ridiculous. Hugh says on 19/Jan/09
Really he looks no more than 5ft10.5 next to his brothers who are both 6ft2 and 6ft1 (maybe 6ft1.5). But Mr. R, was he rude to you? Mr. R. says on 18/Jan/09
I met Alec in New York several years ago. He was doing Macbeth with Angela Bassett, who was fantastic! After the show, we were hanging around, and he came out of the theater to bring back in Angela to speak with an older lady. There was a woman in a wheelchair asking for his autograph, and he pushed by her at least three times. I dont know if she ever got it. Were I to describe Alec, it would be pompous and surly. He was a little shorter than me. 5-10.5 Hugh says on 16/Jan/09
If not Bruce Willis, then Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell or say Sean Connery. Anyway, I'm drifting off subject. 5ft11.5 MAYBE in his prime and 180cm tops nowadays. Possibly 5ft10.5. Hugh says on 16/Jan/09
True James. But he looks a lot shorter than his younger, more reserved and well mannered siblings. You know what I'd love to see. A fight scene between Alec Baldwin and Bruce Willis. I'd love to see Bruce absolutely beat Alec to a pulp. It would shut him up. Hugh says on 13/Jan/09
Oh beyond smug. Anyway he's 5ft11 MAX. Hugh says on 11/Jan/09
Actually I was wrong. He's a very ignorant man overall. No respect for anyone. He's a terrible father and a terrible human being. 'nicer in person'. what was I thinking. But James I agree he did look tall next to Matt Damon. Hugh says on 6/Jan/09
I did read it. Hugh says on 4/Jan/09
No, James he's just not over 5ft11. Perhaps in his prime he might've been this height. But not today. Hugh says on 3/Jan/09
I garuntee anyone that if you put this guy next to an honest 6ft man like say Tom Hanks or Dennis Quaid, he's likely to be shorter. The tallest I've seen Baldwin was in the Departed where he did tower over Mark Wahlberg. But that was before I discovered Wahlberg's real height. Hugh says on 31/Dec/08
He's 5ft11 tops nowadays rob please downgrade him! Hugh says on 21/Dec/08
He's 5ft11 MAX. Always has been. Hugh says on 13/Dec/08
In the Aviator DiCaprio was about an inch taller than Baldwin. Hugh says on 10/Dec/08
Maybe. But when you put him next to legit 6 footers like Hanks, Washington or even Cage he's bound to be shorter. Hugh says on 8/Dec/08
No James, he just is shorter. Hugh says on 2/Dec/08
Sorry James this guy just doesn't look over 5ft11 these days. Hugh says on 1/Dec/08
Rob I think you should leave him at 180cm. I really don't think this man is 6ft or even close. Hugh says on 30/Nov/08
It's likely that Baldwin is under 5ft11 these days. Hugh says on 23/Nov/08
I always thought Vaughn was actually closer to 6ft6 because he gives a more imposing presence than guys like Robbins or Goldblum. Hugh says on 20/Nov/08
Baldwin I'd say is in the same catagory as Willis, Ford and DiCaprio and Law. I think Travolta, Gllyenaal, Walken, Norton, Washington, Kilmer and Walken are all legit 6ft guys. So most of the time they would appear over 6ft on screen. I think 6ft1 onwards is where legitimately tall starts. Ed(1) says on 19/Nov/08
I'd agree with that James! Yeah it's only a 0.5 inch, but it does seem to start to seperate the above average from those who really "stand out" from the rest of the pack. Personally I know the average in the use is debated at between 5ft9.25-5ft10, but I consistently see more and more guys my height(5ft11.75 out of bed/5ft11.25 the majority of the day) these days, which makes me wonder how accurate that figure is. On screen a 5ft11-6ft1 guy looks fairly tall, but doesn't stand out the same way a guy like Hugh Jackman(6ft2.25) does. Ed(1) says on 19/Nov/08
That's true James, guys like Ford and Travolta looked fairly tall in the 1970's! As the years have gone by they've both come to look more in the above average range, then say the way they did in films like Star Wars, Apocalypse Now, Grease, and Saturday Night Fever. If you've ever seen any of Baldwin's early films like The Hunt for Red October, Beetlejuice, and Glengarry Glen Ross he gave the impression of a solid 6ft guy, especially because he was a lot skinnier back then.
The 5ft11-6ft1 range seems to be the trickiest to pin down, especially when you add various footwear to the picture. I'd say as usual Rob has him at a good listing! Ed(1) says on 18/Nov/08
I'd agree Pitt is no more then 5ft11 tops. Willis looked maybe 6ft in his younger days, but I think 5ft11-5ft11.5 seems more reasonable. Quaid I could see as 6ft, but not much more then that! As for Ford, I still don't know what to make of him, he looks all of 5ft11-6ft tops in most of his films from the 80's on, but he's been listed at and seen as 6ft1!
To me Baldwin fits in with this group perfectly as an above average height guy! Guys like Leo Dicaprio, Jake Gyllenhaal, Christopher Walken, Edward Norton, Denzel Washington, and John Travolta all fit into this category as well in my opinion. They don't come across as really tall on screen or in pictures, just above average! Guys like Clive Owen, Eric Bana, and Hugh Jackman on the other hand look legitimately tall on screen! It seems that the 6ft2 mark is what really makes a male actor stand out as a tall presence, anything under that(unless the cast is really short) comes across as above average.
That's just my two cents! Hugh says on 18/Nov/08
Quaid, Willis and Ford are likely taller than Baldwin but Pitt is definately no more than 5ft11. Ford at his peak was 6ft1 going back to say the Star Wars era. Quaid could've been 6ft1 when he was younger. As for Willis he did give the impression of a 6ft1 guy but more likely 6ft. Baldwin wouldn't be similiar in height to them. I'd say he's scraping 6ft in shoes and scraping 5ft11 barefoot. Ed(1) says on 18/Nov/08
James I'd guess it's bad posture from time to time, plus he's gotten pretty hefty over the years. I don't think he's anything under 5ft11, and he's definitely no more then 6ft. With Baldwin it looks like the usual tricky 5ft11-6ft1 dilemma rears its ugly head again! That range can be really tough to pinpoint! He's never struck me as really tall, just above average like the other guys I mentioned. In person that could be a different story altogether! Ed(1) says on 17/Nov/08
5ft11-5ft11.5 sounds about right for Baldwin, because he almost always comes across as relatively tall guy on screen. I'd guess he's scraping 6ft1 in shoes! He has that slightly taller then average look to him in most films, similar to Dennis Quaid, Harrison Ford, Bruce Willis, and Brad pitt! Hugh says on 14/Nov/08
Never James. These days he seems to be struggling with 179cm. Aswell he's dwarfed by his brothers who are 6ft2 and 6ft1.5 respectively. Big T says on 12/Nov/08
How come my comments disappeared off this page? Hugh says on 12/Nov/08
Well it's not hard to dwarf someone like Mark Wahlberg. He's fricken 5ft7. 4 inches taller. That still makes Alec 5ft11. He never was 6ft. end of story. Clay says on 11/Nov/08
Considering he dwarfed Wahlberg, I say you're off-base here Hugh. Hugh says on 8/Nov/08
Sorry, this guy has been 5ft11 tops from the start. TELLEM says on 7/Nov/08
baldwin looked 6'0 next to 6'1.5 jim carey in the movie "fun with dick and jane" i can buy 6'0 for him but nothing over Hugh says on 6/Nov/08
I personally think Alec is slightly less than 5ft11. Hugh says on 14/Oct/08
Well he never gets listed as 6ft. Brad2 says on 14/Oct/08
Good lord, you people who think you're getting these guys' heights down to the quarter inch by eyeballing them always kill me. Do you guys have any conception of how small a 0.25 inch difference is? A full INCH is the length of the tip of my index finger. Most people can't get someone's height correct even standing a few feet away from them. Shoes, slight changes in posture, uneven ground, distance, it makes a big difference fast. (Not to mention the comical nature of asserting that 3 inches difference in height equals "towering" over someone.)
This isn't a defense of Baldwin. I don't like the guy. But c'mon, time and again if I search for someone's height I find them listed on this site, and the comments are always the same. What I do not understand is why there is so little discussion in most of these threads about the fact that all actors lie about their height. They're in acting. It's what they do. They know - just as coaches and athletes do - that it's perfectly possible to fudge height by a couple of inches without people knowing for sure. Women get away with it because of their shoes, and because they are shorter than men - who generally don't care that much if a woman is 5'4 or 5'6 and don't pay that much attention. Men get away with it because it's an increasingly small difference versus other men as height increases, and because people are just bad at judging height within such a small range. An average man is 5 feet 9 inches tall, or 69 inches. Two inches is equivalent to less than 3% of his total height. Baldwin lists himself as 5'11. It's perfectly reasonable to assume he's 5'10. He may even be, at this point, slightly under 5'10. He looks like an average guy. Maybe an average guy doesn't impress, but he's certainly capable of being an average guy and still being a 'big' guy as well. Hugh says on 11/Oct/08
He was probably 5ft11 20 years ago. Nowadays he's 5ft10-5ft10.5 tops. May I also be the first to say that Alec is a total ass. Mr. R says on 11/Oct/08
As I mentioned earlier, he is not quite 5-11. Frank2 says on 10/Oct/08
If Alec doesn't start losing some weight, he won't remain 5'11" for long. Lenad says on 10/Oct/08
Most sights list him at 5'11. He probabaly is 5'11 on the dot. He was towered by Ben Affleck and he is only 6'2. Hugh says on 4/Oct/08
No 5ft11.5-6ft is BS. Lmeister says on 3/Oct/08
He might be a weak 5ft11. He doesn't look that tall in 30 Rock. Could be it is because he has packed quite a few pounds during last 10 years. Leung says on 2/Oct/08
Get real Hugh, 5ft10-5ft10.5 is BS and you know it. Hugh says on 2/Oct/08
6ft is ridiculous, 5ft11.5 is wishful thinking and 5ft11 is bang on. 5ft10-5ft10.5 is even more bang on. Hugh says on 26/Sep/08
His brothers dwarf him Lenad says on 26/Sep/08
I doubt Mike ever saw Alec in the flesh Hugh and yes I agree he is 5'10-5'11 range. Hugh says on 25/Sep/08
Lenad, Mike never 'met' Alec he 'saw' Alec. Anyway I think Alec is a strong 5ft10 to a weak 5ft11. End of story. He should be downgraded. Lenad says on 25/Sep/08
Stop lying Mike you've never met the guy. Hugh says on 24/Sep/08
Sorry Mike. Alec is not over 5ft11 and never was. He's pretty average to me and I think Rob should downgrade him. mike says on 23/Sep/08
saw him at the emmys. easily 5ft 11.5. possibly even 6 even when he wakes up. He is a big guy Lenad says on 23/Sep/08
Mr R says 29/Jul/08
Alec is not quite 5'11. I saw him in New York and he was a little shorter than me. Hes also a d@@@!
Look whos talking Hugh says on 20/Sep/08
James, Alec is dead lucky if he's 5ft11. His brothers tower over him. How does he even remotely look 6ft0.5 if Daniel(6ft1) has 3 inces on him. Apparently they love taking pictures with him to prove how short he is. If I had my way I would put Alec at 5ft10.75. Hugh says on 16/Sep/08
I think Seinfeld and Baldwin are the same height. Baldwin is closer to the camera and has a nice head of greasy gelled back hair. Hugh says on 13/Sep/08
Barefoot hes 5ft10.25. Hugh says on 11/Sep/08
Maybe in shoes he's over 5ft11. Clark says on 7/Sep/08
This needs to be a serious drop in height....5'11 1/2 " is a JOKE!!!! Hugh says on 27/Aug/08
This guy has never been over 5ft11 in his life. Frank2 says on 13/Aug/08
McGill isn't 6'5" He was two inches shorter than Steven Seagal in UNDER SEIGE 2: DARK TERRITORY. Frank2 says on 13/Aug/08
Is this thread locked.
[Editor Rob: nothing is locked, there's only 1 page on the site where I stopped comments.] runt says on 11/Aug/08
Looking somewhat taller than Jerry Seinfeld (5-11?) though Alec is slightly closer to the camera...
Click Here RICHARD says on 10/Aug/08
Everett McGill is 6'5. Frank2 says on 10/Aug/08
Eric Bogosian looked like Shrimpenstien next to 6'4" Steven Seagal and 6'2.5" Everett McGill in UNDER SEIGE2: DARK TERRITORY. Are you sure he's almost 6'? Somehow I tend to doubt it. I can't say for certain since he's one actor I've never seen in person.
In this shot with Josh Lucas on the right, Bogosian doesn't look that tall:

I've seen Lucas in person and he's my height or 5'11". RICHARD says on 7/Aug/08
Looks like a soild 5'11 guy to me in all his films.
In Talk Radio,he appeared the same height as Eric Bogosian,who is listed somewhere as 5'11.5, and Alec looked this as well. So basically he's 6' on a good day,but he has nothing to be ashamed of since 5'11 is a good height for any man. He's also noticeably taller than Stephen Baldwin(5'9) Anamalech says on 4/Aug/08
In the Good Shepherd, he had 2.5-3 inches on Damon, and Damon I don't think is a legit 5'10, maybe 5'9-5'9 1/4 so 5'11.5 sounds correct for this guy. clark says on 29/Jul/08
Mr.R ....another one that has seen the light!!! Mr. R says on 29/Jul/08
Alec is not quite 5-11. I saw him in New York, and he was a little shorter than me. He is also a d@@@! clark says on 5/Jul/08
Hugh, you are dead on. "if not shorter" even more so..... Hugh says on 6/Jun/08
Fine, if you guys think this guy is 6ft or over so be it. To my eyes he's 5ft11 tops if not shorter. Hugh says on 5/Jun/08
5ft11 tops. Affleck had this guy by like 4-5 inches. runt says on 4/Jun/08
Then do we need to upgrade Bill Pullman? His page sais 6-1 to 6-1.5 I judged the movie "Malice" based on the previous 5-11 to 5-11.5 for Baldwin. dmeyer says on 29/May/08
he made whalberg look about 5 ft 6.25 Clay says on 29/May/08
Towered Wahlberg in The Departed. clark says on 24/May/08
To look 6'1" and to be 6 foot one --totally diff worlds. Davey says on 22/May/08
He looks like a genuine 6 footer to me. Arnie says on 21/May/08
Most people who are near 6' above or below it , are never really 6' on the mark. Remember that the six foot mark is just one cm. How many people can say for certain that they are right at the mark with normal footwear or flat, and many people who are 5'10 to 5'11 or a bit over will claim they are six, also many who are more like 6'.25 claim they are 6'1. Anyway Alex to me looks 5'11.25 with shoes. M.P. says on 7/May/08
He looks like he's taller, but I'm guessing that's dead-on. Anonymous says on 30/Apr/08
I saw him last night on NBC SNL best of Alec Baldwin, he looked 6'0" to me. Hugh says on 27/Mar/08
I think he's no more than 5ft11. Daniel and William Baldwin are well over 6ft though. Both men are around 6ft2. D. Ray Morton says on 29/Feb/08
"That movie with Mcpherson was called THE EDGE..."
Fantastic movie. Very underrated. Buddy says on 28/Feb/08
Alec in his prime may have been 5'11.5...but now he is barely that even with regular shoes...He is more so 5'11 with shoes now days...Anybody who is around 6'0 can easily give off the impression of looking taller...just as someone who is 5'8 can give off the impression of being 5'10...Clark is right...Although I think 5'9 is downgrading Alec just alittle too much...I'd say 5'10 at the shortest...5'11.5 at the tallest... ChazBadlwin says on 28/Feb/08
That movie with Mcpherson was called THE EDGE... sam says on 14/Feb/08
problably if someone actually got down to measuring him, he'd be right around the 6 Mark Jen Loves Val says on 7/Feb/08
Hmm I always thought that alec is at least 6 ft....he looked like a six footer. sam says on 2/Feb/08
weird story, i actually saw this guy at a bakery "magnolia" in NYC. though its hard to tell with floor uneveness in that place, he surprisingly looked more 6ft than 5'11. maybe he's a tad taller then he's listed... clark says on 7/Jan/08
I saw him walking down Broadway ave. in NYC last year --the first that came to mind, is that he was walking like he was in pain or feeling his age. Of course, I looked down to what type of shoes he was wearing, and they were these giant motorcylces shoes--with about 3 inches. He was walking a bit hunched over, and I intentionally walked towards the corner to the dismay of my girlfriend. So- I caught him at the light-- I am guessing about 5'9 or 5'10 in flat feet. For sure those shoes made him a lot taller--also the fact that he has gained so much weight does not help. He is not 6 feet!!!without his shoes!!! Anonymous says on 12/Dec/07
maybe he was rockin' lifts in The Departed cuz he looked about 6'1 next to Matt Damon. Adam Brennon says on 15/Nov/07
There is a more than trifling height differential between him and Kurt Russell in 'Backdraft'. dmeyer says on 17/Oct/07
he is near enaugh 6 foot Gonzalo says on 13/Sep/07
1`83 but no more than that. He could be a lift wearer. Remember that pic of him next to his brother William, both barefeet. He looked short, like three inches shorter ted says on 12/Sep/07
Alec Baldwin is 5-11 as he look 9-10 cm shorter than Ben Affleck.He is a nice guy so i want to give him 6ft but i can't,the difference is more than 3 in. matt says on 13/Aug/07
I bumped into him at the stephens talkhouse in Amagahnset. I am 6'2 and he was maybe 2 inches shorter than me. He is also a pretty wide dude. I walked up behind him and tapped him on the shoulder to get by. At first I thought he was a cop because he was wearing a black cop-like outfit and has a very cop like haircut. 18,181 says on 28/Jul/07
Click Here - the man is 5'11. 17,181 says on 1/Jul/07
I think he's 5'11 runt says on 6/Jun/07
looked exactly 1" taller than Nicole Kidman and 1.5" shorter than Bill Pullman in "Malice". 5-11.5 on the nose. Anonymous says on 3/Jun/07
I think he is 6 foot. He looked the same height as elle macpherson in "the edge", who is pinned at 6 foot on this site. Anonymous says on 22/May/07
Yeah, you're right Drew. Something fishy is going on because he looked about 3 inches taller than 5'10 Matt Damon in The Departed but looked about the same height as Eric McCormack on Will and Grace. Maybe Damon forgot his lifts for the funeral scene in The Departed? Drew says on 17/May/07
He looked a little taller than 5'10" Eric McCormack. Now either McCormack is really 5'11" or Baldwin is under 182cm. 5'11 guy says on 15/Apr/07
Actually, he was barely shorter than Letterman back in 1996. 5'11 guy says on 15/Apr/07
Looked over 6' in The Departed IMO. anonymous says on 5/Apr/07
He looked much taller than Damon in "The Departed". If Damon is 5'10 than Alec should be pushing 6'. The Horse of FUNK says on 25/Mar/07
I think Frank2 is right, he's 5'11", no more. If only I could find the pics again of Alec and Orlando Bloom together. I've always believed Bloom is closer to 5'11" like 5'10.75" (180cm), and Alec is the same height as Bloom, which is q |
