Djimon is a flat 6-2 or just a tad under I think. Davey says on 12/May/08
In my opinion the perfect height for a man is 5`11.I used to think it was 5`10 but now think its for sure 5`11.
glenn says on 12/May/08
bono is 5-7 tops.no way taller. Anonymous says on 12/May/08
isn't Djimon 6'2-6'2.5? If so, Brad looks about 4" less making him 5'10.5, which I think he is. Also, I'd bet Bono is packing (lifts that is). ACG says on 11/May/08
Complex and sven: First off I think that Bono is taller than 5'6. More likely 5'7 or possibly 5'8 in my opinion. Secondly, I'd be willing to bet that Bono is wearing lifts(like he often does).
That still puts Brad at 5'11 bare min. Adam says on 11/May/08
Just looked at 'Complex's' photo. I agree with 'sven'. dr. no says on 11/May/08
@ complex
useless pic. No feet visible. These tiny guys are often tiptoeing for photos. Look at Bono's posture. It says all. Also Pitt has been seen taller than 6'1 Eastwood these days. He never looked that short next to a 6'1 guy especially in his shoes. So something is wrong with this pic. bam says on 11/May/08
he doesn't look over 5'10 in that photo, i agree, and with pitt I doubt poor posture would ever be an explanation... Aratirion says on 11/May/08
Maybe Bono is a lift wearer and Brad forgot his that day? I mean, there may exist some days he goes out without ones, so it's just one of the rare situations of Pitt looking 5'9. Which is easily possible for slightly-smaller than-5'11-guys like Pitt, Clooney, Bloom, ... . James says on 11/May/08
I have seen that pic before and by looking at it if Djimon Hounsou is 6ft2 i would have guessed 5ft10 for Brad Pitt in that photo. But perhaps the camera angle is more Hounsous favour. sven says on 11/May/08
in that pic looks 5-9.5 or 5-10 his posture look good... Complex says on 10/May/08

5'6" Bono
?'?" Brad Pitt
6'1" Djimon Hounsou Marcus the Swede. says on 10/May/08
Good question Dave.I think the ladys sometimes judge more on the outside then guys...then they complaine that they never find a nice guy..well give the short man a chance also...curious what the ladys will answer on the question...if Brad Pitt is still hot if he where 5"9..I think 180 cm is max anyhow.thanks James says on 10/May/08
Well Davey look at Tom Cruise and how women precieve him even though he is only 5ft7-5ft8. Anonymous says on 10/May/08
Thank you Aratirion. I've been saying the same thing for months now. That picture at the top of the page actually shows that Brad Pitt is about the same height as a slouching George Clooney; and I don't think those slippers are anything more than that, slippers that probably give him a 1/2-1 cm boost. He is most likely 5'10.5 give or take a bit. Aratirion says on 9/May/08
For me they look like usual slippers; but if you'd compare Clooney, Damon and Pitt by using a photo editing programme (drawing a line from top of the head to the ground) you'll see that there ain't much difference; and if Clooney is 5'10.5 barefoot, Pitt could be about that height in 1cm slippers easily. Davey says on 9/May/08
A question to the ladys.If brad pitt was 5`9 would he still be hot? clark says on 8/May/08
Thanks JD.....you know.....I think the gang is this site is far more qualified than Congress. No problem we cannot solve. James says on 8/May/08
If ever there was a celeb on this website that needs a downgrade Brad Pitt is the one, becuase every picture I have seen of him without lifts he looks like a legit 5ft10ish guy. Anonymous says on 8/May/08
jd says on 7/May/08
agreed with clark. those dont look like regular slippers
James says on 8/May/08
Hmmm theres something fishy in those slippers lol
Not to mention the picture is totally tilted in Pitt's favor. I think he is 5'10ish barefoot as Glenn has confirmed. James says on 8/May/08
Hmmm theres something fishy in those slippers lol jd says on 7/May/08
agreed with clark. those dont look like regular slippers Ruth says on 7/May/08
In those Getty images listed above Brad is standing closer to the camera and George Clooney is the farthest back. It is an optical illusion, as anything closer to the camera looks longer. Fishermen use this technique - to make their catch look bigger they hold it out towards the camera at arm's length! James says on 7/May/08
He looks very average in normal footware to me bam says on 7/May/08
pitt is 5'10. A lean 5'11 is going to look tall a lot in ordinary footwear. Pitt doesn't look tall in ordinary footwear. AM says on 6/May/08
I think he looks about 5ft 10 for the shortest....but I don't care he's soooo hot Clark says on 6/May/08
Those do NOT look like slippers in the photo. They look like desert boots that were very popular during the 1970's. Topher Grace, from "That 70s" show usually wears them on the show. The heels are over well over an inch. James says on 6/May/08
I think 5ft10.5 is probably his true height. Anonymous says on 6/May/08
I agree 100% delphonic. Davey says on 6/May/08
the shoes hes wearing i that photo with clooney and damon wouldnt even give 1cm.I think he probably is 5`11. C. says on 5/May/08
Even though the pic with him and Paltrow have been brought up many times, I still see him as 5'10". I mean, if he was really 5'11" he might as well put 6' down like all of the other stars. And everyone always talks about him being taller than Clooney but he's always wearing lifts, not to mention he literally does stand as straight as a board. And hardly ever does Clooney stand straight (at least compared to Pitt) as he always has some weird posture going on.
Before I came to this site, growing up I had always pegged him as a guy of average height. Of course there's nothing wrong with his height, but apparently to him there is. Mike says on 4/May/08
the guy has impeccable posture, like straight as a plank board, and if he's wearing footwear that gives him extra height in movies so i could see why people thought he was 6 feet or 6'1 at one point.
5'10.5-5'11 seems dead on barefoot. same height as redford in his prime. Viper says on 4/May/08
Id be the surprised If Pitt really hits 5-11, with all of the picture evidence and movie evidence thats been provided. mark says on 3/May/08
the guy its 5'10 barefoot...maybe 5'10.05 but I can see him as 5'11..he is a massive lift wearer..he loves his lifts he love the idea of being too tall Drew says on 3/May/08
LOL @ Depressed.
Seriously though, I can't believe this discussion is still ongoing. We all know Brad Pitt is between 178cm and 180cm, but we will never know his EXACT height. Anyone believing they can nail his height to the nearest mm is only kidding themselves. So please, can we stop it with these "he's 178.87.2cm" comments? I mean, seriously... Anonymous says on 2/May/08
No one is saying he's 5'7 funny guy. grow up. delphonic says on 2/May/08
yeah dicky, if Pitt says 5'11, then it's the gospel. It's not like he wears lift boots EVERYWHERE or anything. So he must not have any issues with his natural height or be inclined to exaggerate it...right? If he was really 5'11 barefoot, he'd look 6'2 with his lift boots, impeccable posture and tailoring. You'd all be arguing over whether he is 6' flat or 6'1! The guy is 5'10 max barefoot. Anonymous says on 2/May/08
James, i believe thats what glenn said: 5'10.5-5'11=5'10ish. bam says on 2/May/08
5'11 is just as possible as 5'10 with the paltrow pic. Their shoulder levels are almost identical in it though. I think he is 5'10 flat- 5'11. James says on 2/May/08
At the end of the day there have been times when Brad Pitt has looked either 5ft10 or 5ft11. dmeyer says on 2/May/08
pitt can lok 6 ft many times but by casey affleck he looks 180 181 range so maybe no lifts glenn says on 2/May/08
he also wrote down 5-10. dicky curtis says on 2/May/08
I saw him on a funny film with jay leno on you tube and he surely looks taller than 5.10. he's No shorter than 5.11. i would say. but we can discuss this for eternity but the only way to know sure is to measure him up personaly and that will never happen. I think it doesnt really make sense to always be discussing about a margin of 1 inch. he himself stated 5.11 i understand so that's what he probably is. Depressed says on 1/May/08
Im gonna say pitt is 5`7 so i feel better about myself. maximus says on 1/May/08
5'10 or 5'11...either way he is not considered short by most standards.....and with shoes even at 5'10..he would be 5'11 plus Anonymous says on 1/May/08
I basically agree with Glenn's estimations although just for the heck of it I'll say a quarter inch less both ways. James says on 1/May/08
That seems fair glenn, but I dont think this guy is 6ft or even 5ft11 1/2. I think in normal footware and without lifts this guy is 5ft10ish becuase he has got that type of average build to him. glenn says on 1/May/08
i say 5-10.5 to 5-11. James says on 1/May/08
Nah Brad ain't nothing under 5ft10. I think he is at least 5ft10 barefoot though. dmeyer says on 1/May/08
i think even if brad didnt sleep for 10 days he would never drop under 5 ft 10.5 just-in-time says on 1/May/08
i'll say 5'11 for brad....nything below 5'10 for brad is absurd Alex says on 1/May/08
I wouldn't go lower than 5'10 for Brad. irishguy says on 1/May/08
The Gwyn pic says to me about 1-2 inches taller, so 5'10.5.
I'm willing to accept he could be 5'11 but I think it is more likely 5'10.5. irishguy says on 1/May/08

i finally saw gwyneth this week a few of times and she is at least 5-9.at least. Viper says on 1/May/08
That Gwen picture pretty much confirms Brad is 5-10 max for me. miles smiles says on 1/May/08
I totally agree with you, John. 5-10 barefoot, 6-1 in massive lifts. His lean build and good tailoring of late makes him look taller than he is. 5-10.25, absolute tops. 5-9.75 , minimum. derek d says on 30/Apr/08
pitt can easily reach 6'2 in lifts, just look at him next to norton and clint where he is taller. No less than 5'11.... 5'10.5 is the lowest i can buy. John says on 30/Apr/08
You know, Gwyn is listed as 5-9, in the kissing pic Pitt seems 1 or 2 inches max! that makes him 5-11 tops. I'm agree with john, 5-10 barefoot, 6-1 in lifts. Never seen that pic before, and some says gwyn is 5-8, that would make Pitt 5-10, looks reasonable. john says on 30/Apr/08
am I the only one who think pitt its 5'10 and he's massive lift wearer?..I mean we all know he wears lifts...but I thin he's a bit shorter than 5'11...
5'10 barefoot
6'1 in lifts
I dont see that as an impossible thing Anonymous says on 30/Apr/08
are you saying it's not a good pic ACG? Granted, it's not ideal, but it is him and another celeb barefoot looking very similar in height. Moreso, there are alot of claims that Gwyn is 5'7. While I know she isn't this low, she could be a smidge below 5'9. James says on 30/Apr/08
5ft10.25 is very possible for Brad Pitt. ACG says on 29/Apr/08
lol, it was only a matter of time before that towel pic came up again..... Anonymous says on 29/Apr/08
That's what I think too James. I'd guess 5'10.25" from that pic. tilting your head doesn't cause much loss in height at all. James says on 29/Apr/08

i would say pitt is at last 180 cm, i have seen him on many pictures and he does look like 180(or taller)...
i dont now is he wearing lifts, but i tihink he has long legs,so could be 182 cm... James says on 27/Apr/08
Yeah some say 6ft1 for Norton and others 5ft11. miles smiles says on 27/Apr/08

Brad Pitt is clearly taller than Casey Affleck - see for example Click Here or Click Here delphonic says on 25/Apr/08
Hey Bill - Can you find and post that pic of Pitt and Affleck? Casey Affleck is only about 5' 8", so if Pitt looks close to his height, he ain't 5' 11" barefoot. James says on 25/Apr/08
Huh, Casey Affleck is listed as 5ft8 Bill says on 25/Apr/08
I saw a picture of Brad Pitt with Casey Affleck and they looked almost exactly the same!!! Casey's listed at 5'11.5 so I would give Brad 5'11 on the nose. James says on 25/Apr/08
Norton has got bad posture sometimes in photos with Brad Pitt, but when he stands straight next to Brad he has a near 3 inches on him. Anonymous says on 25/Apr/08
there's a picture on bradpittfan.com that shows Pitt in shoes shorter than a barefoot Norton while filming Fight Club. So Pitt isn't even 6'0.25 in shoes. Chris says on 25/Apr/08
Davey- Yes, on some events he looks taller than usual. glenn says on 25/Apr/08
i never saw norton.i hear he is 6-1. James says on 24/Apr/08
I remember there was picture of Brad Pitt stood next Edward Norton and Pitt looked like 2.5 inchs shorter as well. So Edward Norton 6ft.25 and Brad Pitt 5ft10.25? Davey says on 24/Apr/08
Chris do you really think he wears 3 inch lifts? Thats seems extreme. Anonymous says on 24/Apr/08
I'm starting to think he's 5'10.25. Definitely not under 5'10 or over 5'11. Chris says on 24/Apr/08
I´ve never met Brad but the tallest I´ve seen him on pictures next to other actors is 186 cm (6'1.25), 3 inches lift is about 8 cm, so 186 minus 8 and he will end up at 178 cm, 5'10'' barefoot. What I´ve heard from people that met him is that he looks 6 feet with shoes on most of the time and has 1.5-2 inch lift. Again that makes Brad 5.10'' or 5'10½'' , 178 or 179 cm. john says on 23/Apr/08
yep runt! I meant that. I ate some words! hahahaha, thank you... 3 inches!!! Then Brad, who is 6-0 tops, can get 6-3 with his lifts? that's a lot! runt says on 23/Apr/08

For once though Pitt's posture is relaxed while Damon and Clooney's seems forced. i think Pitt and Clooney are the same and Damon slightly less. 179 & 178 john says on 22/Apr/08

Well in that pic with shoes on Brad Pitt certainly appears to have 1.5 or 2 inches over Matt Damon and George Clooney.
Yes, but it is totally tilted in Pitt's favor. Take a piece of paper and align it witht the tiles on the floor in front of them, then transfer up to their eye level or top of head level. You'll see that they are actually all about the same height. James says on 21/Apr/08

yeah dude.and like i or they have time for that.lol. James says on 19/Apr/08
I'm glad you like my idea, but I think Brad would only take of his shoes and let us measure him if we held him at gunpoint lol. Dude says on 19/Apr/08
James I like your idea down below, to force him to take off his shoes and put the tape measure on him. I can picture the news wires going nuts with that story. That would be the funniest thing in 2008. Almost as funny as the crazy requests I have seen in past which was for Glenn to take photos with celebs with a tape measure in back ground. Like celebs would agree to it and like Glenn has 6 arms. (LOL) maximus says on 18/Apr/08
I say 5"11 is fair....no shorter than that. If you compare him and cruise its obvious pitt has a few inches on him. James says on 16/Apr/08
6ft1 in lifts kiki Chris says on 16/Apr/08
According to Clooney, Brad is 6'1'', and Clooney himself claimes 5'11½''...that is not true. George clooney is however close too 5'11'' and Brad is about the same height. The thing is Brad wears lift and Clooney don´t. I think 5'10½'', maybe 5'10 3/4 for Clooney and 5'11'' for Brad, the diffirence is minimal. Klem says on 16/Apr/08

why does the bigheadedpygmies website state him as 5'9? Chris says on 16/Apr/08
@Dr.No According to official figures the UK average is 5'10, the same as Germany and Sweden...which is actually considered pretty tall in Europe. Only one or two countries are taller. Chris says on 16/Apr/08
Oh and by the way, he's stated 5'11 and 5'10 himself so God knows where you pulled that figure from. Chris says on 16/Apr/08

thats what i always said bam.nobody wants to hear me. bam says on 15/Apr/08
in a nutshell the average height for white men is possibly as high as 5'10.6, which I remember reading somewhere. That means that half of all Caucasian guys are either a weak 5'11 or over that mark. I'm pretty sure it hasn't always been that way. All encompassing the average height is 5'9-5'10. Either way you swing it, Pitt is pretty much average. 5'10 is very possible, as is 5'10.75,5'11. I wouldn't bet money on 5'10. But I wouldn't bet money on 5'11 either. If he's 5'10.25(my current guess), lifts can give an easy 1.5 inches. And pitts posture can give close to a half inch. Coupled with his lean build, and habit to stand close to the camera, he will never look 5'10 on the big screen or in premiers. James says on 15/Apr/08
The only way we could no Brad Pitts height for sure is if we force him to take of his shoes and and get out a tape measure and see weather the top of his head hits the 178, 179 or 180cm mark lmao.
Dr No i actually kind of agree with you that i might of been exzagerrating the height of young males in the UK. But still young people are getting taller in my country though. Anonymous says on 15/Apr/08
dr.no: Damn, couldn't have said it better myself. Anonymous says on 15/Apr/08
I think the most vivid fact to see how peoples height were increasing is to look at Japan , or China ,but for example , in peoples imagination , in Japan people are really short.Its not their fault , in fact they are known to be fair shorter than causasians.That was before japan has been transformed into a modern country.Now japanese are much more taller than 50 years ago , if you see documentaries of WW2 only 50 years ago , they looked like midgets.
The modernization of the country along with better foods produced taller citizens in japan thats a fact ,they are eating more than rice and a little fish ,imagine us , caucausians ,that are naturally taller and with the aid of enriched foods , i just want to see a study focused in young population cause i think we all here have the sensation that young guys are growing taller than before ,just my opinion.
I think the height range we are giving to pitt are accurate , in fact no one can know how tall the guy is just getting up in the morning , may be he is a plain 5.11 at that moment and then he can lose an inch in height and be 5.10 , or he is 5.10/5 and he maintains that height throught the day . But as glenn said ,there is no lift that can put you up more than 1 inch and a half ,so you ,and in this case brad pitt , should have a base height to use them and look taller. dr. no says on 15/Apr/08
@james: I travel to the UK quite often an I must say, that the UK average is at most 5'9.5 (officially it is only 5'9 even for people 16-24 years). British are not very tall also I cannot see that the young British get anywhere even close to 5'11 in average. Here in Germany or even in the Netherlands I feel people are quite a bit taller. At 6'1 I very often see people of the same height.
But who cares, I love the British nevertheless.
Has anyone seen Pitt really short over the last couple of years? From the early stage of his career there are a lot of photos showing Pitt with short legs and mostly with average height. I cannot find this anymore nowadays. runt says on 15/Apr/08
John says on 14/Apr/08
"How tall is a door? A normal door?"
Do you mean Jim Morrison, or one of the other members?
But seriously, I think 6'8" James says on 15/Apr/08
Dr No if Pitt had long legs he would probably be 6ft1. Anyway I dont really agree with height decreasing sicne young people nowadays in the UK are averaging 5ft11 and infact even 6ft2 is becoming more of a common height as well. mimi says on 15/Apr/08
This isn't my own sighting, but a woman called in to one of the local (Austin) radio shows this morning and said her kid was cast as an extra in the film that Pitt is filming in Texas right now. She went on to say that she's been on set several days with her son and has gotten to talk to Pitt and that "he's a small guy, measuring no more than 5'10" and 150-160 lbs, but very fit." dr. no says on 15/Apr/08
Height is actually decreasing again. E.g. German Army statistics prove that new recruits are slightly smaller than 10 years ago (5'11 in 2000 and 5'10.75 now). And they get measured with this special machine, so no wishful thinking as expressed in many "statistics" where people are just asked about their height.
I read the reason for shrinking again is that in the European Union growth the use of hormones are now more controlled and restricted in animal feeding. So no more hormone bombers like before. But still there are a lot of tall fellows around here, but actually they are a minority. But we, the height obsessed, pay more attention to them and overlook the majority of shorter or average people. Also the brain just seeks for confirmation of its theories and ignores contrary facts (selective deception).
As for pitt: without lifts 5'10.5 as he has very short legs James says on 15/Apr/08

"but the food revolution occured only in the past 10 to 15 years.Thats a huge factor ,explaining why people at their teens today are growing taller. They are eating more quality foods since they were born."
see, i think it has more to do with the hormones that are/were being pumped into the chickens, cows, etc and inevitably end up in us that has contributed towards people getting taller these days. Viper says on 15/Apr/08

I still cant believe he is 5'11, 6'0, or 6'1. LOL, ya know all the heights he has been labeled. Im going to say 5'10. Nothing taller or shorter. Foot wear has alot to do with it. As does his earlier films, hence Kalifornia. Shorter than David.D. And Pitt wore those boots, even Cool World he didnt look 6'0. Anonymous says on 14/Apr/08
Idiot, that pictur was taken from bradpittfan.com. check it out for yourself and think before you open your big mouth. klem says on 14/Apr/08
"However, contrary to what most people thought, Pitt was actually at his lightest, weighing in at only 150-155 pounds, with body fat around 5-6%."
I found this about his filming for fight club.
I doubt he could be more 5-10 1/2 with this little weight even with as little fat. James says on 13/Apr/08
In the UK where I live most men who are middle aged range from 5ft9-6ft, as for young people they average 5ft11-6ft2. Well maybe im exazagerating slightly when I say 6ft2. eddiehaskell says on 13/Apr/08
Here is what an article I read said:
"In the United States, 14.5 percent of men are 6 feet or over"
"Only 3.9 percent of U.S. men are 6'2" or taller" Viper says on 12/Apr/08
Yeah Glenn, Im 6-3. Mazon says on 12/Apr/08
Someone posted a picture of Brad Pitt here that has been certainly edited. The one with his legs looking short. His lower legs have been cut in the photo, making it appear really short. Just watch Troia and you will see that his lower legs are no way short. In my opinion the link for that picture should be removed from the site, as the picture is no doubtly a fake. The link was posted by a Anonymous on March 28th. Anonymous says on 11/Apr/08
Its obvious that even the fast food have added vitamins and nutrients today.
Even junk food as cookies and candys have vitamins its called enriched foods,the society has been advancing since the last 30 years at fast pace , but the food revolution occured only in the past 10 to 15 years.Thats a huge factor ,explaining why people at their teens today are growing taller. They are eating more quality foods since they were born.
No wonder why americans are shorter than germans or swedish people though.After all ,all are from anglosaxon background ,unless you are putting into the equation other mixed races or black people that can put the average height down in america. Anonymous says on 11/Apr/08
I think alot of young people look taller because they tend to me much more slender than the older crowd too. When I was 17 I was 5'11 and 145 lbs. I probably looked much taller than I do today at 180 lbs and the same height. James says on 11/Apr/08
Although at my college you do get people from 16-19 in the 6ft-6ft3 range there are a growing number of people that are 6ft4 or even 6ft5 as well. glenn says on 11/Apr/08
correct dmeyer. viper-arnt you 6-3? Chris says on 10/Apr/08
Yeah dmeyeer I agree the same way more people are 6ft. Interesting, the French are on average 2 inches shorter than UK males. Possibly to do with them being Latin whereas UK males more Germanic? dmeyer says on 10/Apr/08
5 ft 11 is the tall side of averae but it isnt tall anymore dmeyer says on 10/Apr/08
it i scary how people under 25 are so tall all my friends in france who are between 18 to 23 they are all 6 ft to 6 ft 3 James says on 10/Apr/08
Ture Viper you do also get quite a lot of teenagers under 6ft but at the same time you do get a lot that are over as well to an extent. Viper says on 10/Apr/08
Did someone say that some viewed 6-0 as short? Only a 6-10 basketball player would say that!!
James, I went to a football game at a major university this past fall, and most of the males students I saw were under 6-0, which surprised me a little. The school I went to the average was around 5-10. glenn says on 10/Apr/08
correct 5-11 is the tall side of average. James says on 10/Apr/08
5ft11 its nothing special but still its the tall side of average. I think alot of people view 6ft as perfect and yes tall as well. But i think you would find more women saying 6ft is really tall than men. Chris says on 10/Apr/08
irishguy- 25% more than 6'0 is more accurate. 5'10 is UK ave. that makes just as many people 6'1 as 5'7. I know I'm not taller than 50-60% of people though, that's easy to see in any social situation. I agree with you James.
They're still in the same boat the way I intended it, anonymouse...
I mean, if you place two 4x4 pieces of wood side by side, one 180cm, one 183cm you're gonna have a hella time differenciating unless it's against a wall or you are up real close. It's even more difficult if the 4x4s are as wide as humans. So add a real human, with his hair, varying head shape, varying builds, varying postures etc and ask people to look for 0.02 difference it wouldn't be straightfoward by any means. If you ask someone in the street to pick out people 2% shorter than other people it wouldn't be accurate and it's difficult to tell between me and my friends if you didn't know already as many people guess completely wrong. Anonymous says on 10/Apr/08
i agree Klem. I'm 5'10.5 (179) most of the day and I usually just say 5'11 as my height. irishguy says on 10/Apr/08
I think about 25% of young men are over 6'0 flat (in US, UK and some other countries), which is still tall if you are 6'0, not stand out tall, but tall.
40% over 5'11 (and 40% under 5'10, making about 20% between 5'10 and 5'11).
15% over 6'1. Klem says on 10/Apr/08
I agree about that that lain 180 looks smaller than 181/2, like 180 is still average, 181/2 is that transitional height... But for me 5-11 is 180.5 cm, lot of people are a bit under 180 than they claim 180cm and 5-11 in inches which is realy 180.5 and so many are realy cm under true 5-11 who claims it. Viper says on 10/Apr/08
I tend to agree with the height percentages to what I see in person. At least where I live. Chris says on 9/Apr/08
Viper - interesting but what does it mean? - peoples opinion has no actual bearing on height. I understand it 2 ways: that 6'0 appears tall enough for people to guess it's 6'2...
And that people overestimate their own height so it only seems as if more people are taller than in reality is the case.
What percentage is 5'11 then? 65-70%. At 5'11 I certainly don't feel that. I can't see only 15 in 100 people ranging from 6'0+.
Or 1.5 in every 10 (male) people? Gotta be more than that IMO.
I agree most people are under 6'0. However, I think if 6'0 was really 5'11...making it 180cm and not 183cm, people will still say it's tall and use all arguments they make for it already.
Why... because it's "6'0". The lovely, square, unanswerable figure.
It's only really in the states this carries weight, as in other places 183cm is just 183cm. Doesn't mean anything. Chris says on 9/Apr/08
Anonymouse - good points.
Btw what do you mean 'shoe level', if both guys were wearing (similar) shoes? Would that not decrease height difference as overall height would be more so difference would be less...
It's interesting because I agree 1 inch is noticble in the way you describe but also un-noticble in the way I describe.
You could say whys if its so noticible is Pitt's height being guessed at all over the place from 5'10-6'1 even when he's next to other guys whose heights are known...
But to state once more I think a lot more people are 5'11 making 6'0 less tall and noticible. Anonymous says on 9/Apr/08
In the same boat? what are you talking about? A plain 5-11 near a real 6ft guy its 1 inch difference , which is noticeable , not as much ,not towering , but certainly noticeable.I have a friend who is 5-10.5 and other which is 5-11 1/2 , the height difference is noticeable , not by much but it is , if you are looking for towering , then you would have to compare wide height ranges , thats a no brainer , but to say a 1.80 guy looks the same as a 1.83 guy , i mean ,be real.
However , IMO 5.11 its not that tall these days.I would say looks normal near young people.Perfect height for me its 6.1 or near, but also anything thats over a plain 5.11 , I think if you are a little over 5.11 you can look much taller than if you are a plain 5.11 ,thats why 1.81/2 guys looks sometimes as tall as 6.1 . James says on 9/Apr/08
I know what you mean Klem i think most men who are 5ft11 whish they were that extra inch taller since over here in England 6ft is the magic height that people want to reach. Alot of 5ft11 men might say they are 5ft11 1/2 or 6ft,also as well 6ft men might say they are 6ft1. Of course some 5ft11ers are honest about their height like Hugh Grant for instance when he states he is "5ft11". Although that said Hugh Grant might be a little modest becuase he infact can look 5ft11.5 or 6ft next to 6ft1.5 Colin Firth so who knows? I also belive George Clooney is one of the honest few when he says he is 5ft11 as well but on this site is listed 5ft10.5. Klem says on 9/Apr/08
6 or 5-11... its true that it is in the same boat and you don't stand out..but it makes you feel better as an individual when talking to somenone taller, that 1 inch can make you feel taller than it really looks if anyone understand what am i trying to say... glenn says on 9/Apr/08
i agree with chris.just like 60 is the new 40 or 50.mainly for celebs like the stones or harrison ford for example. James says on 9/Apr/08
Chris if you went to my college you would have to be 6ft2 to be tall let alone 6ft. What I am trying to say is around middle aged men young people probably can feel tall but amongst younger people its a different story, since in my opinion people aged 18-25 average around 5ft11 to 6ft.05. Anonymouse says on 9/Apr/08
You are right, but partially.
6ft is tall.Unless you walk barefoot on the street ,you can reach almost 6.2 with shoes.And if you put a plain 5.11 guy near a true 6ft guy , you can notice the difference.Believe me,un inch height difference plus shoe level ,and you can really notice the difference.I would say that 1 or 2cm difference its nothing to worry about ,since its hardly noticeable. but 1 inch differnce starts to be noticiable.
And people do notice the little height difference, starting off with one inch ,and no one its gonna label you as short,but people would think that you are shorter than them , which its the important thing. Viper says on 9/Apr/08
A lot of people think 6-0 looks 6-2 though. I dont see how 6-0 is the new 5-11. Most people are under 6-0. 6-0 is taller than 80-85 percent of the population. Chris says on 9/Apr/08
James - that's what I mean, IMO 6'0 IS the new 5'11. Maybe new over the last 15+yrs in terms of numbers at this height (don't ask me to prove it).
And 6'1 is the new 6'0 cus as you say that's the new tall. I agree with what you say about 6'0.
So in the end Pitt has the impact he has because of what he IS, not because there's been some huge disservice to the public in a perceived miscalculation of his height in the region of 2%. James says on 9/Apr/08
Well who knows Chris in 10 years time 6ft might be the new 5ft11 if you know what I mean. 6ft certainly isn't small i mean in the past i have heard people describe 6ft as short believe it or not. I think when you reach 6ft1 thats the magic height when you stand out as quite tall. 6ft is just a very respectible sensible height really not too tall and not too short in my opinion. Chris says on 8/Apr/08
James - yeah and it's not IMPACT tall so I can't see how there is so much importance placed here between 5'11-6'0 when they are both in the same boat whether it be medium or a little above average...it's just arguing over a certain number really without taking into consideration how little difference it actually makes. Especially as you don't stand out at all! Anonymous says on 8/Apr/08
I think a genuine 6' tall guy would be regarded as tall. alot of guys who claim 6' are really only 5'10 or so. probably why alot of people don't look at 6' as anything more than average. James says on 8/Apr/08
Chris 6ft isn't really that tall it's just above average which is why you can brand someone who is 183cm as tall I guess. Chris says on 8/Apr/08
What I've noticed guys is that 6' isn't TALL anyway. In my opinion, taking into consideration the different body stature builds that can vary appearance of height, 6'2 is what gives someone that 1/3-a-head difference over someone like myself - 5'11.
Where you can tell at first glance that yeah, one guy is a little taller than the other.
And even then, it's only 1/3 head's difference, hardly David and Goliath proportions. (1/3 head!, the rest of the body the same, a deal I can live with)
I think 6'1 is the breaking point where if someone has a really muscular build, they can appear tall, whereas if they have a slighter build, they appear dead normal.
Pitt, at 5'11, who really cares. Like I say, IMO it takes a 3 inch difference to make a difference.
Then it's slightly noticible.
Afterall, I am 181/189 (cm) of my friend's height. or 8/189th of a difference. 4% of a man's full body. Anonymous says on 8/Apr/08
dmeyer, is your friend as good at judging height as you are? dmeyer says on 8/Apr/08
pitt is likely nothing under 179 Chris175 says on 7/Apr/08
2-3 inch lift wearer, he can look 6-1 so he is 5-10 to 5-11 anything less than 178 is bull in my opinion dmeyer says on 7/Apr/08
a friend of mine worked with pitt on a movie set and told me pitt was very average height like a lidl smaller than me by 1 in and then he met^pitt in cannes and told me pitt looked about 2 in taller than the first time 5 ft 10 at once and 6 ft jonny says on 7/Apr/08
yeah you made a point hris..but I dont see that is impossiible to wear 3 inches lifts...i think it can be used very good...so cruise, pitt and stallone are the top on that list...they wear 3 inches lifts sometimes...
they are the lifts borthers James says on 7/Apr/08
There were photos of Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman and honestly Brad does look close to 4 inches shorter than him if not that. fan says on 7/Apr/08
Looking at the above photo with him standing next to clooney and damon,I would say that brad is a definate 6 footer.....maybe a fraction less. Anonymous says on 7/Apr/08
It probably is true, although i don't believe he is as low as 5'10 flat. 5'10.5 most likely. glenn says on 7/Apr/08
just the facts-i think that might be fact. Chris says on 6/Apr/08
-jonny, I think you are right, it suits Brad to wear lifts though, lifts that are under 3 inches, otherwise it looks strange. jonny says on 5/Apr/08
I was wathing seven yesterday and there's one scene wehn he takes his shoes off, only onde side and then stands up and it looked like the shoes gave him to him like 3 inches maybe a little less..beacsue of his knees looking...so in the film he looked 6' all the time..only 3 inches shorter than freeman
my guess pitt its 5'10 maybe a little over James says on 4/Apr/08
Really demeyer? Well how come on the George Clooney page people are saying he is 5ft11 and on this page saying Brad Pitt is 5ft10.5? Just the facts... says on 4/Apr/08
I read an article that before Brad got into acting, he wrote on a modeling agency's application that he was 5'10" . In addition, when he was getting more and more famous, he started listing himself as 5'11" / 6 foot. Haha, sorry to put a damper on this topic, everyone. What do you think Glenn? dmeyer says on 4/Apr/08
clooney is max as tall as pitt since pitt wears elevator and looks 0.75 to 1.5 in taller we all know elevators dontgive mush over 1.25 in shoes that clooney wears bam says on 3/Apr/08
5'10 flat is very possible. Just look at that clooney quote, where he says that brad is about a foot shorter than everyone. glenn says on 3/Apr/08
i know for sure clooney is a legit 5-11,5-11.5.i think pitt is slightly smaller.by how much im not sure.pitt also allegedly put down 5-10 as his height too you know.and i have 5-10 as his height in a magazine from 1996 too. James says on 3/Apr/08
glenn do you think George Clooney is slightly taller than Brad Pitt? Keeun says on 3/Apr/08
Of all the celebrities I've seen, he is the only guy I would say was taller than average. He is just less than six feet. Klem says on 3/Apr/08
he is 5-11 max if he wrote that down himself, but in my opinion he is not a strong 5-11, more like 5-10.5 max before bed. He is self-conscius about his height, he wouldnt write down less than he really is. He would probably write down 6 if he was solid 5 11 1/2. glenn says on 3/Apr/08
if you say so.he could be any height for that matter.for me 5-11 tops. Anonymous says on 2/Apr/08
glenn says on 2/Apr/08
no way he is 5-10,but he does wear lifts it seems so he is 5-10.5,5-11 max.
Glenn! There is no way you can tell the difference between a half of an inch! He could in reality be anywhere from 5'10'' to almost 6 foot. Let's just be realistic here. James says on 2/Apr/08
Listen guys we are only talking tiny dimensions here when determining wheather Brad Pitt is 179cm or 180cm lol it ain't that easy determining 5ft10.5 from 5ft11. I think Brad on a good day is 5ft11 on a bad day 5ft10.5. Anonymous says on 2/Apr/08
I think you both are right for what it's worth. Let's take Glenn at his word people. He's met him and had friends who have met him which also see 5'10.5-5'11. irishguy says on 2/Apr/08
About the Brad/Clint photos - big lifts, straight posture, tiptoeing.
I'd be very surprised if he is over 5'11, imo, there is as much chance of that as being under 5'10, which I also don't think is likely either. glenn says on 2/Apr/08
no way he is 5-10,but he does wear lifts it seems so he is 5-10.5,5-11 max. Lynn says on 1/Apr/08
The pic with Clint is a fake. Or Brad is on a box. James says on 1/Apr/08
You know with all this talk of 6ft, maybe i was undersestimating him being under 5ft11, maybe he could actually be a solid 180cm barefoot becuase i can imagine him having an edge over 5ft10.5 George Clooney. He did strangely tower over 6ft-6ft1 Clint Eastwood as well, although of course he was wearing lifts though. Anonymous says on 1/Apr/08
You can't see their footwear so that picture with Eastwood is about as useless as this one: Click Here where he looks to be a flat 5'10 next to 6'2.5 Morgan Freeman. I'm not saying he's 5'10, just that he isn't over 5'11. Come on, 6'0? Give me a break. |
