Check him out in i~robot stanind face to face w/ Will Smith,
You can see Will's making an effort to stand as erect as possible
& McBride is even slouching @ 11:50:
(@ 11:52 he stands fully erect to tower 4" over Smith)

In some pictures I've seen he looks taller than Michael Rapaport, Zachary Levi and Danny Glover so Chi is very tall. This is right I think. PatB says on 12/Jun/11
I watched "Mercury Rising" last night where McBride plays Bruce Willis' FBI buddy. I recognized him as the big evil billionaire from "House". He appears to be out of place because he is so big. He dwarfs Willis. He's always the biggest guy in the scene. He's not only tall but also heavy. I'm sure his career has been negatively impacted by his size. He just doesn't look like a normal person at all.
Then I stopped for a moment as it struck me - I'm that size. I'm 6'5" and weigh a bit over 300 pounds. Except for the fact that I'm not black, that could be me up there on the screen. Jesus!
I think of me as just right, but on the screen McBride looks pretty extreme. I think it means that movie stars like Willis and Alec Baldwin are part of the 'little world' of movies inhabited by tiny men. In real life the average man is about 5'8" or 5'9". In movies the average man on the screen is about 5'7". Hence tiny Tom Cruise or George Clooney can appear normal. Most of the movie stars who wear lifts are probably no more than 5'6" - guys like Robert Downey. Al Pacino is probably 5'3".
On dating sites one quickly learns that both men and women lie about their ages. If a woman advertises herself as being 35 you can be pretty sure she's 40. Similarly male movie stars seem to be about two inches shorter than they claim. I now adjust down most of the heights claimed here. I think most of them are far too generous.
Thank you Chi Mcbride. dmeyer says on 3/Jun/11

6'3.5" at best.
There's a scene (in House) where 6'2" Laurie is standing face to face with him. He's got around an inch (and a half, at best) on Laurie.
Couldn't get a screencap. |
