Funny how people are trying to undersize this guy, claiming his barely 6'5". Anything under 6'8" is ludicrous!
Klem says on 16/Dec/09
He doesn't stand fully erected on everyday situations and when acting. People that tall are usually always a bit hunched, but at the doctors he stand as straight as he can and he can hit 6-8. pleaseFolks says on 16/Dec/09
He can walk straight under standard 6'8 doorway's and he does it with his shoes on... He is 6'6 at best, but more likely 6'5 alex says on 22/Nov/09
Im 15 years old, turning 16 in a week and a half, but im 6'6'' and i wear a size 17 shoe. will i be taller than brad? matt says on 8/Sep/09
Brad Gareett is no smaller than 6'8 even these days, he may have lost 1/2 an inch, James Brolin said Brad is 6'8 1/2, Brad too said that and they said that was his height on Raymond, Keep in mind Ray Romano is 6'2 1/2 tall. James says on 6/Sep/09
I don't buy 6'9. I think nowadays Brad Garrett stands at 6'7.75. Peak 6'8.25 with his huge size and age its likely he may have lost a cm or 2. I know a 6'8 who has shrunk to 6'7 and people of this height develop back problems etc.. as they get older but not all do of course. nick says on 20/Aug/09
Many sources list him 6'8 1/2 and 6'9 so he is either of those, Brad once said he was measured at just over 6'8 and he said he was that height on raymond too as mentioned, He is as good as 6'9 as it is only half an inch difference so many may just round the 6'8 1/2 to 6'9 anyway. tom says on 19/Aug/09
Brad Garrett is 6'8 1/2 he said so on Raymond ( Model episode), they make a reference to him being close to 7 foot tall and 6-5 when like 15, Ray Romano said Brad is 6'6, I doubt it as Ray is around 6'2 1/2 and he has 6 inches on ray, peter boyle was asked too and he said Brad is 6'8 or 6'9, maybe just over 6'8 which indicates he is indeed about 6'8 1/2 besides he looks it, he was the same or an inch taller than the 6'9 phil gordon too.
Brad is 6'8 1/2 I think, also take into account his posture, Peter boyle was great actor and a legend. oliver says on 19/Aug/09
Brad is 6'8 or 6'9, He said in a raymond episode, the model one when asked his height he said he is 6'8 1/2 tall and he also had an interview and he said his doctor measured him and he was just over 6'8 so I would say 6'8 1/2 is right though many have said he is 6'9 also. jesse says on 18/Aug/09
Brad is listed mainly 6'8 1/2, that is his height- 204 cm , though a lot of sites have him 6'9 tall, Ray Romano is 6'2 1/2- 189 cm. mike says on 13/Aug/09
Brad Garrett is 6 foot 8 and a half tall, The sexy Joely Fisher is 5'7, Joely is hot, great big tits, great legs etc, goreous lady and Ray Romano is 6 foot 3. lee says on 12/Aug/09
In Raymond (the model) episode he said he was 6'8 1/2 when asked, he also had an interview before and he said his doctor took his height and he was a tad over 6'8 so it is right, Ray Romano had an interview for a film and interview said he was 6'4, Ray is actually 6'2 1/2 though he has been listed as 6'4 yoyo says on 10/Aug/09
i saw a video on youtube that brad garrett with an inch shoes standing not over 1.5inch taller than a 6ft6 women with 0.35inch(1cm)foot wear. i suppose if his really 6ft8.5(204cm) with an inch shoe was like 206.5cm would be taller than 199cm(with 0.35inch footwear) women by 3inc(7.5cm). So the fact was Brad could not be over 6ft7 top. 6ft6.75 at night time for brad. Anonymous says on 28/Jun/09
as Robert Barone on Everybody Loves Raymond, he gave his height when asked how tall he was. He said "I'm 6'8 1/2, but I can schlump to six-five. Brad Garrett clearly is a solid 6'8"(2.03m). Doug says on 27/Jun/09
I believe what he says. 6'8.5" peak, today 6'8". Give that Romano is a notably tall guy himself, a strong 6'2" and how short he looks next to Garrett it makes you realise just how extremely tall this guy is. yoyo says on 17/May/09
his pushing 6ft8 tall but def not 6ft8.5 nowadays. a strong 202cm tall this guy. saw picture of donald sutherland with him thats no different over 14cm and ray romano kind of 6ft1.5(187cm) only. yoyo says on 17/May/09
his pushing 6ft8 tall but def not 6ft8.5 nowadays. a strong 202cm tall this guy. saw picture of donald sutherland with him thats no different over 14cm and ray romano kind of 6ft1.5(187cm) only. simon says on 11/Apr/09
Yh, Peter Boyle too was a tall man at 6'2 (1.88m), a great talented actor he was a top man and a legend on raymond.
Brad is 6'8 1/2 and Ray Romano is 6'2 1/2 mike says on 10/Apr/09
Brad Garrett- 6'8 1/2 ( 204cm) tall.
Ray Romano- 6'2 1/2 ( 189cm) tall. Kazz says on 6/Apr/09
Brad Garett is 6'8 1/2 he stated it on raymond in model episode he said before his doctor measured him at a tad over 6'8, Eddie Kay Thomas is 6'0, I mean he is a giant of a man sometimes he seems samller most likely his posture isnt the best but he always seemed a big guy on raymond too ,even on 6'2 1/2 Ray Romano. Big T says on 3/Apr/09
On "Til Death" he doesn't look ANYWHERE NEAR this tall next to Eddie Kaye Thomas. He looks about 6'5" assuming EKT is in the 5'11" range, and that's not all camera tricks as I'm taking into account full body shots, of which there are quite a few.
There should be near enough a full head difference between them but EKT comes nearer his eyes than his chin most of the time.
I can only put it down to posture. Doug says on 24/Mar/09
Thats a great evaluation C and believe you are exactly correct. Doug says on 24/Mar/09
And yes on Raymond he also looked every inch of 6'8"! Didn't look that tall? Crikey, he was the same height as the 6'8" front door. He could though walk through doors when leaning though, he didn't have to "duck" though. I'd dread to think what you would consider tall then James! Doug says on 24/Mar/09
Na you can tell he is above 6'6". He looks every inch of 6'8" he really does. Dani says on 21/Mar/09
James don't buy 6"6, He looks massive. Doors are too short for this guy. He's 6"8 like rob has him here. dani says on 17/Mar/09
Listen James, you're blind. Garret looks every piece of his 6"9. He's a monster looking guy. Sometimes he slouches in "everybody loves raymond" but he's just massive. You need contact lenses............ daz says on 8/Mar/09
Brad Garrett is 6'8 1/2/ Ray roano is 6'2 1/2, both are tall guys but brad is a giant, raymond rules, i have the whole set on dvd, C says on 7/Mar/09
I completely agree with Doug. He is always leaning or slouching. The Raymond set doors are really close to 6'8" standard door heights from what I've seen. Kareem Abdul Jabar was on the show once and his eye level was roughly 1" higher than the top of the door frame. That would make
1) the door frame close to 6'8" because Kareen's 85.625" - 5.5" = 80.125" - just about 6'8"
2) Brad would be roughly 5" shorter than Kareem, based on how each stands up to the door, which would put him right around 6'8.5". Doug says on 1/Mar/09
On Raymond when he walks through a door he doesn't have to duck but he is always leaning. He clearly cannot walk through the door straight as he would graze his head. When he stands next to the door he is actually a shade taller than it so 6'8.5" peak height is VERY accurate, perhaps 6'8" barefoot. He's a huge guy. dani says on 28/Feb/09
This looks taller than 6'8, he's just massive. mike says on 18/Feb/09
Brad is 6'8 1/2, He even says so in interviews when asked and in raymond he said, he is a really tall guy, it can depend on posture too, how he stands sometimes but he is a tad over 6'8. Mystery_Man says on 16/Feb/09
Definatly 6'8" and nothing under. If only we could get Tyler Mane and this guy in the same pic, I wonder whod be taller. Marty says on 14/Feb/09
I can't see Brad Gerrett being over 6 ft 8 in... In my honest opinion, 6 ft 7.75 in would be his height !!! You see him walking through door openings without having to duck, and a door has a height of 6 ft 8 in... Icehole73 says on 13/Feb/09
Who thinks he is taller than Kane (Glen Jacobs)? It would be close in my opinion. yoyo says on 12/Feb/09
i personally think Brad has lost a cm or 2cm nowadays.. he don't really looks 204 now. chris says on 9/Feb/09
Brad is a giant of a man, 204 cm tall 6'8.5, that women was 6'6 scary tall for a women. Anonymous Brad says on 2/Feb/09

There looks to be little difference between the two. colin says on 2/Feb/09
Brad said he was 6'8.5 in the model episode off season 8 of raymond. Tim says on 2/Feb/09
There was an episode of Everybody Loves Raymond where Ray measures his height and finds he is 5'11. He spends the rest of the episode being depressed claiming that he has shrunk from 6'0. Red says on 30/Jan/09
paul, I don´t think Ray is 6´2.5", for me he´s struggeling with 6´1".
Brad looks 6´8+", I don´t think a 6´9"peak is out of question... colin says on 29/Jan/09
yes brad is 6-8.5 and ray 6-2.5, both are tall guys, brad is 204cm and ray is 189 cm tall, a standard door in uk is 6'5 or 6'6 i think, it depends some doors can be higher and some lower though, im not sure about doors in america, they may be bigger or same roughly. paul says on 3/Jan/09
Brad stands 6 foot 8 1/2 or 204 cm , that is his height he is a giant, Ray Romano is 6 foot 2 1/2 or 189 cm,and the doors in raymond must be 7 foot maybe or just under 6'10 or so, how tall are normal sized doors in general does anyone know?
Because i always thought to the top of the door was like 6'5 or so, my mate is 6'3 and he nearly ducks under door he is just under. anonymous says on 21/Dec/08
He is a giant 6 foot 8 is accurate. He is taller than the door in everybody loves raymond, that's y he crouches when he walks in raymond's house. 6 foot 8. Anonymous -15 says on 20/Dec/08
Huge guy , makes Ray Romano look very average in comparison , legit 6'8". yoyo says on 5/Dec/08
His tall.. But i can strongly see this guy stand barefoot at 200 to 203cm. No way his 204cm. His pushing it a little too "up".. Anonymous says on 12/Nov/08
He probably is 6'8"+, most doorways are 6'8" and on Everybody Loves raymond he looks as tall as the door or a little taller when he stands up strait. Anonymous says on 10/Nov/08
Probably is 6'8", looks really tall. anonymous says on 8/Nov/08
I watched everybody loves raymond again and he is a giant. He's the same height as the door. I would say he's around 2m or taller. Lebensdorf says on 26/Oct/08
I don't know. Maybe. Lebensdorf says on 23/Oct/08
I was probably about 5'8'' at 16, and now, at 28, I'm about 6'2''. I didn't stop growing until I was about 22. You can still grow, Rhino, up till 23 or 24 sometimes. Just be positive. Anonymous says on 22/Oct/08
Rhino I also dobt you'll grow over 6'8" because most people your height stop growing around your age. you'll probably stay at aroun 6'4" or 6'5" Rhino says on 27/Sep/08
I will probably grow taller than Garrett in the future. Im only 16, but im already 6 ft 4. Captain Spaulding says on 20/Sep/08
There always looked to be half a foot between him and 6'2" ray ramono, 6'8" is right. hs2008 says on 12/Sep/08
James, totally agree. He may be a full 6'8" but I don't see him being close to 6'9". Huge guy anyway of course. tom says on 26/Aug/08
how can you see the difference beteween 8feet and 8.25 I can see it Dirk says on 21/Aug/08
He was measured at 6'8 1/2 at a clinic, he is 204 cm tall a tad over 6'8, deacon on king of queens is 6'5 1/2 197 cm for king of queen fans who ask? Spenser says on 30/Jun/08
I wonder what size shoe he wears, I'm the same height, and I wear a size 16 US Jake Is Back says on 27/May/08
6'8.25" could definantly be right, even if he can look shorter at times. joz says on 23/May/08
Brad is 6'8.5,big guy ,he was good on raymond and ray romano is brilliant, the whole raymond cast was quite tall apart from like patty and doris, ray romano is 6'3 ,peter boyle was 6'2 , fred willard and robert culp 6'2 also.
ps. rip. peter boyle Joe says on 21/May/08
Huge guy. Saw him in NYC a good eight-nine years ago, he looked about 6-9 and very large too. Resembled a big wardrobe.
6-8 sounds about right for him barefoot from my personal experience. John Jay says on 18/May/08
Seen Brad walking in the street in Nyc last summer the guy is a head above the crowd, I first noticed him because of how tall he looked then as he walked past I noticed it was him, even hunched over he looks very tall ,not just tall but very large framed with large holloween monster glove sized hands, BIG FELLA yes 6'8 sounds right. Anonymous says on 5/May/08
Well, is that 6'8" with shoes???....maybe...because 99% of the time when I get my height taken at the doctors office they just have me stand with my shoes on and then take my height...that would make him 6'7"...which seems more plausible.... Ras says on 28/Mar/08
So why did you add a quarter to his height Rob? Lawson says on 15/Mar/08
funny guy, i saw a stand up act in which he claimed to be "the largest jew in captivity" D-Lurker says on 21/Oct/07
I remember seeing brad on 'Everbody loves Raymond' for the first time, years ago, before it was popular here (and enjoyable)..I actually thought that it was the actual wwe star "Undertaker"....I was young, what can i say :P. quite a success story for someone his height!. o says on 6/Oct/07
brad garrett is either 6'8 , 6'8.5 or 6'9 one of those three , my best guess would be middle one bob1 says on 21/Sep/07
His recent interview with Conan O'Brien is on you tube:
Click Here
About 27 seconds in you can see he looks to be a good 5 inches taller than Conan. You can see later in the video that he is wearing quite big heels though. Chiabone says on 16/Sep/07
I figured he was that tall, he can barely walk under a standard door frame. I know they are 6'8, having installed and framed a LOT of doors in my day. Brad1 says on 1/Sep/07
If Brad Garrett is 2.04 and Phil Gordon is 2.06, how come Brad looks 1 inch taller then him in those wireimage pictures? I have a big reason to believe that Phil Gordon's height is NOT 2.06, he 's probably like 1.98-2.01 something.. that would be realistic.. I Know It All says on 17/Aug/07
NO, he's listed at and is 6'8 1/2"! He has to duck slightly under ur average 6'8" doorway!!! And Ray Romano is listed at 6'3 1/2", I don't see how Ray's my height?? At my height u need long arms, big hands, and broader shoulders!!?? karl says on 18/Jul/07
just watched the model episode he says he is 6foot8 and a half but he can slouch down to 6'5,so 6'8.5 is bang on. sweccey says on 20/Jun/07
its difficult to say but he may be around the 6'8 mark, although i saw an image and he was by phil gordon who is said to be 6'9 and brad looked a tad taller so some one should check that out. lillo thomas says on 14/Jun/07
i think that if garret isnt a full 6'8 he got to be 6'7 at least Jack says on 13/Jun/07
Wow, now that's one tall guy. Arjun says on 14/May/07
Romano is standing slightly behind Garrett though, but Garrett still towers him all the same. Arjun says on 14/May/07
bob1: Garrett itowers over Romano there. He indeed looks a solid 7 inches taller, if not slightly more. In most pics, the difference is'nt that big - it's more like 5-6 inches. bob1 says on 13/May/07
This is a recent pic of Ray Romano and Brad Garrett, and Garrett looks to be about 7-8 inches taller (taking into account posture):
Click Here
He must be somewhere around 6'8", I've not yet seen him standing next to anybody who's been taller.
Does anybody know how tall Prince Edward is? On other photos on getty Romano looks approx. the same height. wazza says on 5/May/07
yo arjun , i believe romano is 6 foot 2 and brad garrett is 6 foot 8 and a half, you cannot tell where ray comes to brad exactly , brad has a huge head but i would guess he has 6 and a half inches over romano. az says on 5/May/07
Ray romano said that brad was a 6 foot 6 inch giant, but when asked brad said he was a hair over 6'8, i believe brad garrett is 6 foot 8,who does romano think he is saying he's 6'3 if ray is 6'3 brad is 6'10, besides brad knows his own height, what does ray romano kmow Valleygirl says on 5/May/07
Ok folks, I went to Highshcool with Brad and he is a bit over 6'8. He is not shorter than 6'8". I am 5'8" and with heals on he is still at least 8-10 inches taller than me. My HS boyfriend was 6'6" and Brad was taller than him. cabb says on 4/May/07
i think brad looks 6'8.5 and as far as that ray romano how can he look 6'6 to romeno ,ray is said to be 6'2 but his big ass hair gives him a few inches, he probably is 6'2 if you include his hair, and brad is still like 5 or 6 inches taller than him. sf says on 3/May/07
Why do some many quote the episode where Romano says he's just under 6 feet as gospel? It's a tv show! The episode wouldn't work if he said his real height. He's obviously over 6 feet. He's also supposedly a sports writer - not real, either. nick says on 3/May/07
brad garret is 6 foot 8.5 and ray romano is 6 foot. Arjun says on 2/May/07
kiunn, how can Romano be 5'10"? He's no less than 6'1". As has been discussed on his page, the ruler in that measuring episode of him was rigged - making him appear 2 inches shorter than he is. And Garrett may be 6'8", but honestly, he does'nt seem to have 7 or more inches on Romano. Looks 5-6 inches to me. kiunn says on 2/May/07
i believe brad is just over 6'8 , looks it in my opinion, he never stands straight most the time but he towers over the 5'10 romano and the 6'1 boyle, big man he is listed at 2.04 m which is about right Arjun says on 26/Apr/07
But oscar, there was apparently an extra 2" on the first foot of that measuring stick. The first foot (0'0" to 1'0") was 14 inches. So 6'0" would actually be 6'2". That would make Romano closer to 6'2", maybe 6'1" and change w/o his big hair? He never looks 8 inches shorter than Garrett in any halfway decent angle, even w/o big hair. So either Romano is taller than 6'0", or Brad is shorter than 6'8". Personally, I see a max of 6 inches between the two. Romano reaches or nearly reaches Brad's eyeline even without his hair , and there is no way that Garrett could have more than 5 1/2 inches from the top of his head to the middle of his eyes. Measure that distance on yourself and see what you get.
Cheers,
Arjun oscar says on 23/Apr/07
brad is a huge guy he's 6'8, he had an interview and he said he was 6'8, 250 pound guy shopping in the big fat ****s shop.
arjun, about romano have you watched the episode ray get's measured and he said he was 6 foot like 5 times, episode is called six feet under its on season 2 i think.
cheers Arjun says on 23/Apr/07
There does look a full 3 inch difference between Tom and Brad in that photo.
However, penton, if Brad is 6'8", I can't see Romano at " 6'0" at best ". When do you see EIGHT INCHES between the two?

Because he towers over almost everyone in pics. Colton says on 20/Apr/07
i know he isnt six five i was quoting from the show u idiots. he says i can slouch to 6 5 jokingly. but he is 6 foot 8 n a half. ray romano is full of **** he is more than 6 6 for sure. and he says himself many of times hes 6 8 n a half so. penton says on 19/Apr/07
brad is 6'8 he is taller than the 6'5 tom kiesche on that photo, i would say brad is 203 cm aswell, i would put ray romano 6'0 at best,and peter boyle was bold but he was taller than romano,

Great post C. Brad actually looks a couple of inches taller. I think the angles great favor him or they're on an incline because I'm fairly confident Phil Gordon is a legit 6'9". I'm sure he's no less than 6'8 1/2" in comparison to other tall poker players and celebs. C says on 17/Mar/07
All pictures here: Click Here that show supposed 6'9" Phil Gordon and Brad Garrett together imply that Brad is taller. Brad has the camera angle on him on some shots, but there is no way he is shorter. LV says on 10/Mar/07
Viper, please review pictures of him next to athletes and celebrities of known height. He's only slightly shorter than 6'9" Chris Webber and Phil Gordon. No way he's 6'6 1/2". He's a solid 6'8". Someone earlier said he looked 6'4" on the show, that's crazy seeing how he towers over 6'3" Ray Romano. Anthony says on 2/Mar/07
I think arguing that he's under 6'8 is rediculous. Why would he add nearly two inches to himself? It's common knowledge that Hollywood is antsy about hiring actors 6'5 and up because most of Hollywood's biggest stars (male, anyway) have height complexes, so if Garret was already 6'6 he'd be hindered enough. Adding two inches is just silly. First of all, as I said, it would make getting work difficult, and second of all, why would he want to be any taller anyway? Be sensible. Garret is at the very least 6'7.75 and rounds up slightly in my opinion. Not to be disrespectful, but let's give the man the benefit of the doubt. Height Tracker says on 27/Feb/07

He's is definantely 6'8" if you look at that picture with him and Chris Webber...their shoulders are about exactly the same height...if Webber didn't have that huge hat on, they might about the same height, maybe 1/2" difference KC says on 26/Jan/07

Definantly looks 6'7" - 6'8". He's huge. If he says he is 6'8" he probably is. Anthony says on 5/Oct/06
He's obviously talented enough to pull off the roles he's offered to a point where it really doesn't matter. A person's height shouldn't be a determining factor of someone's potential. Brad's an incredibly talented actor from what I've seen, to the point when you really don't care how tall he is. Rub says on 1/Oct/06
In Fox comedy Til Death, he states that he was 6 foot 8 by the seventh grade. He has slimmed down, so he looks slightly taller as it is, but i'd give this guy a solid 6'8.5" wrestling says on 31/Aug/06
does look to be a solid 6'8" ... if not 6'7" 1/2 (200cm) witch is like 1cm less big deal Anonymous says on 23/Aug/06
A standard head is around 25 cm, (I think (editor) Rob posted a picture, where he measured his head to 24 cm).
And Brad's head looks quite big, and could easily be 30 cm (around 1 foot). So I truly beliefe that Brad is 6' 8". Jimmy says on 17/Aug/06

The picture with Sutherland definitely shows Garrett is a minimum 6'8" to 6'9" - if Sutherland really is 6'3", and if they're wearing the similar shoes. Garrett's eye level is at least 1" over Sutherland's skull top. And according to the article "How to Measure a Celebrities Height" add 4.5" to the eye level. 6'3" + 1" + 4.5" = 6'8.5", I would say. Petter says on 3/Aug/06
To begin with, I'm 6'7.5" myself, so I, like the few other really tall guys on here, have a certain amount of "understanding" when it comes to height, appearence and realtivity to other objects.
I've watched ELR quite alot from time to time, I like it cause it's a fun show, and because I love seeing tall people on the big screen! :)
And I must say, I have a hard time believing 6'8", to me it feels too little! At 6'7.5", I don't have to duck when walking through regular sized doors here in Scandinavia. Even if a door is 6'7.5", you're not "fully extended" when walking, and that is why I don't have to duck. Wearing shoes though, will force me to duck, but not really by much. Looking a mr. Garret walking through doors, I'd rather wan't to put him as a 6'9"-er, or say between 6'8" and 6'9".
And the talk about having smaller doors just seems ridicoulous. His physical stature doesn't have a vital part of the show, so why would they go through the trouble of ordering smaller doors just to make him look even bigger? Anthony says on 26/Jul/06
Well, Brad stated above that he was "just a hair over 6'8", so 6'8.5 is probably more accurate. Still he's a huge man. I take back my 6'7 statement. ancient Aztec Guy says on 23/Jul/06
I heard somewhere that Garrette is actually 6`8.5``.He`s a pretty big man.He reminds me of Andre the Giant and Vince Vauhn.But Vince would have to grow 3.5 inches. Jamesy says on 26/Jun/06
" I grew up with and know his wife Jill Diven. In fact her parents were just at my house last Saturday and he is 6' 8 "

Ok, Let's clean this mess up. Garrett is, undoubtly, a tall man. If we want to put him in a height comparison against Romano, we must take into account that Ray around the 5'11" in that episode where he is measured. However, one poster brought to our attention that 2 extra inches were placed on the bottom of the board. Thereby, giving Ray a legitament height of 6'1". Now we just need barefoot pics of Romano and Garrett. bob1 says on 10/Jun/06
He definitely looks 6'8", but it's confusing because I don't think Ray Romano is the 6'2"+ he claims. And after seeing a picture of Garrett and " 6'9" " poker player Phil Gordon in which Brad as about 1-2 inches taller he's def. 6'8" minimum. I will try to find the pictures again... Anthony says on 8/Jun/06
I wouldn't give Brad a full 6'8, but I'd give him a strong 6'7, maybe 6'7 1/2, as the height diffeence is pretty similar to the one between Gleen and Krist Novoselic. D.J. says on 4/Jun/06
Brad is definitely a foot taller. For those of you who think he's 6'6", get your eyes checked. He is at least a foot taller. zeke says on 30/May/06
I think he's just a tad shorter than Ted "Lurch" Cassidy, who was about 6'9" and the tallest actor to play a character on a regular tv series. Of course, James Arness is the tallest to play the LEAD character(Gunsmoke) at 6'7". Why isn't Ted Cassidy listed on this site? J. says on 15/Apr/06
Appearently, he's also said that he's 6'9" before (taken from 2002 article in San Francisco Chronicle- Click Here):
"I became a stand-up because that was my survival," he says. "I was a 6-foot-tall 13-year-old who couldn't play basketball. I moved around all the time as a kid, and at each new school the coach would say, 'He's the great white hope' -- but I couldn't play ball. So my thing was jokes and characters and making fun of myself and being the 6-foot-9 Jewish guy. That was my way into show business."
[Editor Rob: so he's claiming that height aswell, interesting...]
trevor says on 14/Mar/06
whoever thinks ray romano is 7,2 or taller than brad garrett is an idiot. Ive met romano and my dad is 6,3 and he looks around my dads height not 6,8 like brad. Also there have been scenes in the show where theyre both standing beside eachother and brad is easily 5-6 inches taller CoolJ says on 2/Feb/06
I cant have an opinion? It just doesnt look like a clear foot to me.. thats all. ice says on 30/Jan/06
I believe the 6'8. He has no reason to lie. In fact, at his height it would hinder him. He's unlikely to be the main star, so he would be a supporting actor. With most of hollywood under 6'0, who would pick him. No man wants to look like a midget in their movie. CoolJ says on 26/Jan/06
Yeah.. I don't see a foot there.. Maybe 6'7 is more realistic.
[Editor Rob: depends if he's standing properly...] Anonymous says on 24/Jan/06
what r u smoking? bob1 says on 23/Jan/06
Well, I disagree with you there Jone. In that photo he looks at LEAST 6'8". Definitely a big man; certainly over 6'6" barefoot. Anshelm says on 16/Jan/06
Marc, my nose-bottom to head-top measurement is c. 18 cm/7", and my height is 180 cm/5'11". Shouldn't this measurement be more with guys this much taller than me? Otherwise no comment, never tried to guesstimate either one of them myself. Marc says on 15/Jan/06
Ray Romano is 6'2". From the bottom of the nose to the top of the head is 6 inches. 2+6 = 8. Garrett has to be 6'7" to 6'8". Tall Man says on 7/Jan/06
Barefoot. My hair's too short to be "boofed up", lol. I'm with Brandon---we "extra tall" guys can see that he's clearly got us beat in height. Tall Man says on 5/Jan/06
Brad Garrett is easily at least 6 foot 8. I am 6 foot 6, and his body and limbs are longer and more "exaggerated" than mine. And the way he towers over people, well, I'm used to doing that all the time, but he towers even more than I do. JJ says on 16/Dec/05
I've never met him, therefore, I cannot say anything for certain about his real height. But the fact that you would say "He could not stand 6-8, barefooted. It's as simple as that." with no support or reason shows very little about yourself. From your other posts about him wearing lifts - why would an actor that tall wear lifts? There's absolutely no reason for wearing lifts when you're that tall. It's not like he's 6' and wearing lifts to try to be 6'3. JJ says on 14/Dec/05
I think he's 6'8. I mean why would an actor that tall lie about his height? I think because everyone here agrees that he's at least 6'6. So there's no reason for a 6'6 actor to say he's 6'8 right? It's not like he's an athlete. Jason says on 8/Dec/05
Brad said in an interview that he was 6'0'' at 13. Either way, it doesn't really matter ... some people stop growing at 13 and some grow a foot after that age. Anonymous says on 7/Dec/05
This may not be relevant due to a lack of verification, but Frank (Peter Boyle) mentioned that Brad's character was 6'5" when he was 13 in an episode. If that were true, then he should be over 6'8". However, there's no way to know if this was his real height at 13. Jason says on 27/Nov/05
The guy looks 5'10'' compared to The Soprano's lead actor. Garrett looks in the 6'6 1/2'' - 6'7'' range next to him. Brandon says on 27/Nov/05
Gramps, agreed - Jone seems to be arguing against himself. The photos supplied by him all point to making Garrett appear as 6'7" - 6'8" ! Gramps says on 27/Nov/05
As I said below, Jone, your photo references do a great job of illustrating Garrett as a 6'8+" guy! CoolJ says on 27/Nov/05
Jone: From those pics.. that "guy" appears to be roughly 5'11ish and Garrett looks around 6'7".. If thats true, it also puts a dent in Romano's height.. a long with others.. Gramps says on 26/Nov/05
Brandon, I agree with all your comments. I hope some Hollywood "insiders" decide to post here regarding set design. I am certainly no expert, but have read several times over the past 40 years that many sets are designed "small," presumably to make the Alan Ladds, Frank Sinatras, etc. look bigger than they really are. Brandon says on 26/Nov/05
Jone: Your story regarding your friend who is 2m tall that has to duck residential doors in his barefeet cannot be correct, at least if he lives in the U.S. Residential doors come standard as 6'8". 2 meters is equivilant to 6.56 feet. This does not make sense. Also, in ELR, not only does Brad have to slightly duck to enter a doorway, but he is already slouching when he does so. If he were to stand up completely straight and attempt to enter a doorway, he would literally have to duck 2-3 inches. I know that you and others have suggested that perhaps the doors on the set are smaller than standard doors, but why would that be? Why would the set designer have a custom door made just for the show? Wouldn't it just make more sense to order a standard door to put into the set? Thoughts and comments anyone? Anonymous says on 26/Nov/05
I second what Gramps said.
Jone, I already posted that picture with Leno and Garrett. I'm not sure why you reposted this. Did you read my original post below?
And, in the golf picture, why do you consider regular golf shoes lifts? I'm not sure what in the world we're supposed to be looking at but the shoes he's wearing are similar to http://www.golfshoesplus.com/shopdisplayproducts.asp?catalog=3917&mfg=Adidas&page=mf
I can guarantee you that these are not lifts! They're just golf shoes! Gramps says on 26/Nov/05
Jone: Both photos you just posted convince me Garrett is a full 6'8". And furthermore, what really tall guy would wear lifts playing golf, for God's sake? Wearing lifts would throw your game way off, even if you wore them all the time, which is crazy for a guy you say stands 6'6" already. It makes no sense whatsoever. Brandon says on 25/Nov/05
I am an avid ELR watcher, and I stand at 6'4" - 6'5" myself. Being this tall, I can tell, just by Brad's posture, stance, and overall relativity to inanimate objects (refrigerator, tables, furniture, doorways, etc.) that he looks indeed to be 6'8". As I said, being the height that I am, I have a better understanding on here than most as to what if feels like to be tall - that being said, I can tell that Brad is at least 3"-4" taller than I am. 6'8" is correct. Anonymous says on 25/Nov/05
Agreed, Gramps. "Brad wears Lifts" is the worst argument I've seen in this discussion. Jone, I'm sorry you have your mind set that way. You have inconclusive evidence and very weak arguments, so I don't even see why this is worth discussing anymore. Why do you think his height hasn't been downgraded to what you claim? You don't seem to respond to evidence we have, and we have even said that doors are not the way to measure heights. Yet you used that argument again.
Oh yea, so I guess the scenes in "ELR" where he is barefoot is fake. Maybe they gave him plastic feet to stand on, to make him appear to be taller in barefoot. Gramps says on 25/Nov/05
Say Jone, I hear a lot of conjecture from you, but no evidence. "Where's the beef?" J-Dog says on 24/Nov/05
Always trying to downgrade with skepticism...the guy looks 6'8". Jason says on 24/Nov/05
I'm not a fan of the show and didn't even know who Patricia Heaton is, Anonymous. And yes, Gramps, of course one post like that doesn't prove anything ... but he does look that in the pic with Chris Webber and Charles Barkley. Now that pic doesn't prove anything beyond a doubt of course, either ... I'm just using it to support my opinion. I don't believe the guy's 6'8'' or taller. Ray Romano's height is very much in dispute, BTW, Anonymous... Gramps says on 23/Nov/05
Beware of movie set doorways - - they are notorious for being built smaller than real life doorways! And Jason, I could post here that Patricia Heaton told me she measured Garrett at 6'11" barefoot - - but that don't make it so! Anonymous says on 23/Nov/05
One person claiming to hear he is 6'6" does not mean a thing. She also says Patricia Heaton is 5'6", which is a total joke. She barely nudges the 5'2" mark. The person who posted that loses all credibility from that statement.
In addition, looking at photos where you cannot see the whole body, and taken from a low angle does not mean a whole lot.
First of all, if you listen to the commentary sections of Season 1 of "Everybody Loves Raymond" he is referenced as a "7 foot Jew." Someone who is merely 6'6" is not even close to 7 foot. Yes, 7 foot is an exaggeration, but is an awfully far stretch for a 6 and 1/2 foot tall man. If he was only really 4 inches taller than Ray, the height difference would not be that much. References to "giant" and "circus freak" would not make any sense in their jokes.
Secondly, again, I encourage you to watch the episode "Net Worth." Brian Posehn is a 6'6" man, and that is a real 4" difference above 6'2" Ray.
Thirdly, in his role as Jackie Gleason, according to By Bridget Byrne / Associated Press, "To level the playing field, fellow cast members wore 7-inch boots, doorways were 8 feet high, furniture was built up, some actors stood on boxes, and specially rolled giant cigarettes were used to make Garrett's huge hands seem smaller." 8 foot doors would appear to make him 5'6", not even close to Gleason's real height.
And lastly, watch many episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond. You can get a sense of how Brad is able to stoop with minimal notice from the audience. Also, Fred Willard is 6'2". Ray is 6'2". To think Brad is only 6'6" is nowhere near reality because he is 6" taller than them, minimum. Jason says on 23/Nov/05
Just look at the Ray Romano page here ... there's a pic of Brad and Ray with NBA player Chris Webber and former NBA player Charles Barkley. Chris Webber is 6'8 1/2'' at best in bare feet, and he is still taller than Garret even though he's leaning down...
And add to that a someone posted on Ray's official site they met Ray at a taping and asked how tall Brad was and Ray said 6'6''...
http://www.rayromano.com/message/forums/topic.asp?forumid=1&topicid=5601&nodes=5601,5657
I would give him around 6'6 1/2''. The ''hair over 6'8'' measurement quoted at the top musta been in shoes. Gramps says on 22/Nov/05
Funny how the numbers are all over the map. Ball-A-Hallic and jack both drew conclusions after watching Garrett on "Raymond," only one says 6'5" and the other says 6'10"! Others just say "I think he's about 6'X"," with no support whatsoever. starwars23 says on 22/Nov/05
why does everybody think this guy is 6'6"? he is one big dude minimum 6'8" Anonymous says on 22/Nov/05
There is no way Brad Garrett is 6'6" or even 6'7". He is definitely 6'8", or just as he says "a hair over 6'8". To view a 6'6" man on Everybody Loves Raymond, watch the episode "Net Worth" and take a look at Brian Posehn. He is 6'6" and admits it here: http://www.kittenpants.org/36_tummy/bp.asp
The height difference between Ray and Brian is not the same difference between Ray and Brad. You can definitely tell there is a larger difference between the two. Jason says on 22/Nov/05
Actually, I think 6'6 1/2'' would be better... Jason says on 21/Nov/05
Hey Rob, are you gonna downgrade him to 6'6''? J. says on 16/Aug/05
I'm watching an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air where Brad Garrett appears. Brad stands before a measuring board for a mugshot in the episode and he comes right at 6'7", three inches about the 6'4" mark on the board. I'm not sure if this is a true indication of his height or just a television quirk. jack says on 12/Aug/05
he is taller than 6'8...my best friend is 6'8...i am 6'3..the height discrepancy between ray and garret is way more than 5 inch's..I initially thought garret was 6'10... CoolJ says on 6/Jul/05
I read he was 6'8.5. He even states he is above 6'8".
Either way he's huge, and at least 6" above the SUPPOSEDLY 6'3" Ray Romano. Ball-A-Hallic says on 25/Jun/05
When i 1st saw him on Everbody loves Raymond I thopught he was like 6'5 or 6'6 but kno I think about it he does look 6'8 langskanken says on 11/May/05
He could very well be 6'8", a standard residential door is 6'8" and when he stands near one on Everybody Loves Raymond he looks to be the same height as the doorway. |
