How tall is Christian Bale ?

Cole says on 16/Jun/13
He's obviously 1-2 cm shorter than Nolan, and Nolan is definitely not 6'1.

Maio says on 14/Jun/13
Also if many visitor in the site aren't agree with me, i think Christian Bale is really 6 ft 0 in/183 cm.
He hasn't a tall figure, yeah, however he looks tall and very close to many people like Michael Caine (6 ft 1 in today) and Morgan Freeman (6 ft 1.5 in today)...I think he's at least an hair under the six mark...For me he's a legit six footer!

Brian says on 3/Jun/13
When I was in high school, I was 5'11 and 3/4". I'm in my forties now and I'm just below 5'11". I have a pair of boots that put me at 6'. The point is that most of us shrink with age, or we could have been measured wrong, or we round up because we'd rather appear taller. It's been my experience that a lot of people really don't know their exact height. It's more of a composite of information they've accumulated throughout their lives. Morgan Freemen is 6'2", and he looks to me to be about three inches taller than Bale, but that's just my opinion.

I think Bale does have a very marginal height advantage over DiCaprio, although it would interesting to see how these "competitors" would compare.

Balrog says on 18/May/13
Actually Bale looked taller next to Nolan than DiCaprio does.

Dmeyer says on 16/May/13
DiCaprio looks à haïr taller than Bâle near nolan so Bâle might ne closer to 5'11.5

Luther6ft says on 13/May/13
He can look just 180 cm at times but I still think 182-183 cm is right for Bale. 5'11.75 might be better than the full 6ft.

Balrog says on 11/May/13
Both Nolan and Bale are close in height. In some pics Bale edge out Nolan, and in others Nolan is the taller one. Still 182-183 is good for Bale. Neeson is a terrible sloucher but he's still over 6'3''.

Johno says on 8/May/13
I don't believe Nolan is listed 6'0 or above anywhere? He does look like a strong 5'11 and is listed at 5'11 so maybe giving him a height estimate of 5'11.5 might be closer to do the truth. What is more or less certain though, he is taller then christian bale - i think that can be agreed upon.

johno says on 7/May/13
Christian Bale is closer to 5'11 then 5'10. He is around the 5'11 mark and seems to dip below it.

Liam Neeson is a good 4 inches taller, around 6'3 but possibly a weak 6'3 at his age. Both stars hover around these parameters but dip below. Height is not necessarily one way or the other and you can't pinpoint at a specific point.

Bale 5'10.75 - 5'11
Neeson 6'2.75 - 6'3.25

Jack says on 4/May/13
Rob is strong 6 foot(184 cm) possible for Christopher Nolan? He looks taller than Dicaprio and Christian Bale...

Lenad is sexy says on 2/May/13
if bale is 5'10 then liam neeson is no more than 6'2. Rightooo...

SantaMonica says on 29/Apr/13
I saw Christian Bale in a restaurant here in SM a couple of years ago. I was actually struck by how short and slight he was. I would say he couldn't be more than 5'10" max.

K says on 28/Apr/13
He looks 6 foot but no taller or shorter. I respect that he's honest about his height. I guess he could be 5'11.5"-6'0.5" > but most people round anyway.

Lenad is sexy says on 26/Apr/13
Now the 6'2 listings are utter bull. a 6ft2 Christian bale would equal a 6ft6 Liam Neeson, and a 6'3-6'4 Michael Caine. Really to me he looks 6'0ish. Usually has

Emil says on 13/Apr/13
Maybe he drops to 5'11.75 after a day with heavy lifting. 6'0 is fair enoch for him

Balrog says on 10/Apr/13
There are pics of Bale with Brandon Routh who is a legit 6'2.5'' guy and Bale doesn't look less than 5'11.5" next to him, he's likely closer to 6'0'' rather 5'11''

Balrog says on 4/Apr/13
Bale is taller than Nolan. Between 5'11'' and 6'0''.

Johno says on 23/Mar/13
Nearly an inch shorter then the 5'11 listed christopher nolan. Even if christopher was 5'11.75 and was rounding down, bale would have a hard time passing 5'11.

In reality, 5'11 is the max height christian can be and he clearly seems in the 5'10 range. He can appear shorter with some actors when they wear lifts but he is somewhere in the 5'10 range, probably upper and wakes up at 5'11-ish. A classic 5'10 + proportion.

If you continue to believe he is taller then christopher nolan then please provide picture evidence. He is about 0.75 inches shorter then the 5'11 listed nolan. A classic, legit 5'11 range person is most people's 6'0 + and pretty tall and it would quite cool if rob were to demonstrate a 5'11+ in any future height challenge.

Christian bale 5'10 - 5'10.75 ( could possibly be 5'11 )
Christopher nolan 5'11 - 5'11.75

LAZOUBID says on 23/Mar/13
He looks 5'.11.5"

James says on 25/Feb/13
Bale is close enough too 6ft

george says on 10/Feb/13
I can imagine a 183.5 to 182 range for bale. He's a fit guy and I don't imagine him losing a great deal. Definetly a 6 ft range man. Anybody claiming he's 5ft11 are just showing how ignorant they are to guessing peoples height.

lerdan says on 9/Feb/13
He looks exactly 5'11 when compared to other legit self-claimed 5'11 indviduals.

Barahir says on 7/Feb/13
I saw one picture. Nolan is higher than Bale. Even than Morgan Freeman, and Nolan is 180 cm.

jim says on 31/Jan/13
Bale always looked 5'11" to me at most.

Balrog says on 27/Jan/13
It was only an observation, no intention to offend.

Chameleon says on 25/Jan/13
Balrog you are being really rediculous, im not Rampage. Now stop flaming me.

Jake: 1.83 m- 1.85 m says on 22/Jan/13
182.5 cm (6'). I honestly don't think he drops much below 1.83 m

Balrog says on 22/Jan/13
Well I respect your opinion but you should take a time to think why you downgrade every single celeb in the 6'0''-6'1'' range. Probably you are around that height.

Chameleon says on 22/Jan/13
Idk about Catherine's height, but Eckhart is 5'10.

Balrog says on 21/Jan/13
Chameleon, if Eckhart is 5'10'' then Catherine Zeta Jones is under 5'6''? Wow.

Trey says on 21/Jan/13
I agree he might look closer to 5'11.5 at times, 5'9.5 is just pure trolling.

Balrog says on 21/Jan/13
Well Hew your opinion is fine I mean putting Bale at 181-182 is okay, I still think 182-183 is more his range but in one of the comments you quoted, someone called Johnno said that Bale was 5'9.5'' max 5'10'' and I think that is just downgrade for fun.

Chameleon says on 20/Jan/13
Eckhart is 5'10.. if Chris is an inch taller he is not 6'..

Hew says on 20/Jan/13
@Bakura- Calm down man. I agree he (Bale) CAN pull off 6ft, but not all the time.

And also to some of you guys that use the 'lifts' argument for Eckhart; there's an equally big chance of Bale being a liftwearer as there is a chance of Eckhart being one. Heck it might even be a bigger, more logical chance for Bale to be it as he's the bigger Hollywood-name of the two.

For the reference of Bale's height I think the photo I just posted of Hardy and Bale could be used, Hardy is 5'9 max as he looks about the same height as Gary Oldman listed 5'8.5 here and looked a good 3.5-4 inches shorter than Chris Pine (I have to disagree with you Rob that Hardy might be taller than 5'9). Bale has every advantage possible in that photo and still only looks about 7-8 cm taller.

Have a look at this one aswell, I hardly see the 3 inches even when every advantage on earth is in Bale's favour - again: Click Here

Here Bale has taken a small step back, Hardy is still doing the splits - Bale still tilting his head up, again having every advantage possible, only now he looks 181-182 cm at most. That is why I think Bale is 181 cm at most barefoot, you could change my opinion though, IF you manage to find me a SOLID piece of evidence to suggest otherwhise. Until then I'm sticking with 181 cm for Bale.

Balrog says on 19/Jan/13
He could be 181-182 cms but to me he's closer to 6 foot than 5'11''. Always has looked that.

Bakura says on 19/Jan/13
@Hew- you don't believe he's over 181 even though, as Balrog mentioned, he has an inch on Eckhart? Logic. Bale always looks a solid 6-footer, nothing over or under.

Hew says on 19/Jan/13
Click Here

Bale is closer to the camera and has a far superior posture. Looks 7-8 cm taller here, 6ft if Hardy is 5'9, but if Hardy stood with the same posture and equally close to the camera, the height-difference would not be that much, possibly only 5-6 cm. What do you say Rob?

Hew says on 19/Jan/13
Chris says on 24/Jul/12
johno stop trolling, Wahlberg wears lifts and next to Tom Hardy you doesn't have posted a single good pic.

So trollo, sorry johno, according to you if Bale is 5'9.5''-5'10'' then Hardy and Worthington are 5'6.5''-5'7'' and Crowe 5'8''? Right?

Wow, sorry, but you really managed to pick the worst, most distorted picture of Bale and Crowe for height comparison. If you take a good hard look at the entire set of pictures from that event, they look identical in height, Crowe has a crappy posture even, and Bale is standing as straight as an arrow. Bale ain't over 181 cm, possibly less.

Hew says on 18/Jan/13
Still don't think he looks over 5'11.25.

Balrog says on 17/Jan/13
Hew. Scroll down. Bale has an inch on Eckhart. And Eckhart wears lifts at times.

Hew says on 17/Jan/13
He's more or less the same height as 5'10.75 listed Aaron Eckhart. Not 3 cm between them.

Lebensdorf says on 16/Jan/13
He's a strong 6 foot, could pass for 6'1 sometimes.

Shelly says on 12/Jan/13
I said 5' 7 1/2" which is not too low from 5' 8". It's only half an inch.

Balrog says on 11/Jan/13
Yeah his wife could be 5'8'' - 5'9''. 5'7'' is too low.

Shelly says on 9/Jan/13
His wife cannot possibly be 5' 11" or 5' 10" unless Christian Bale is over 6'. Judging by these pics, I'd say she's (maybe) 5' 7 1/2"-5' 8":

In the first pic she's noticeably two inches shorter than him with high heels on.

Balrog says on 4/Jan/13
Actually his wife is listed 177 cm in some places.

guest says on 3/Jan/13
his wife Sibi Bale: 5'11
him: 6'0
can you explain why he's much taller than her when she got high heel shoes?

Hew says on 30/Dec/12
If I were to put down a solid height-listing for this great actor, it would be closer to 5'11.

Jake: 1.83 m- 1.85 m says on 30/Dec/12
Exactly 184 cm out of bed perhaps. 5ft 11.75in at very lowest is possible, which is a decent 6-footer.

Balrog says on 28/Dec/12
Nothing over 6 feet but nothing under 5'11''. I think 5'11.5'' would be bang on for this great actor. Upper average or weak tall range.

Njp says on 28/Dec/12
In that last picture from Truthfinder oldman is slouching and sitting at around 5'7.5" so I'd say bale has a good 4 inches on him there - between 5'11" and a weak 6ft

Trey says on 23/Dec/12
5'11 looks more and more likely to me.

Joey says on 20/Dec/12
bale is 5'11.25 (181cm) during daytime ..keep in mind that freeman is long past his prime height and jackman isnt a full 6'2 flat...and well..also the fact that 99,9% of all celebs like to round up their height..even regular people do

truthfinder says on 11/Dec/12
Please refer to my link below. If Nolan is under 6ft what is bale then... :)

I'll put Nolan at 180-181 and Bale 182-183.

Jake: 182.9 cm -- 183.5 cm says on 30/Nov/12
I'd say Nolan's 5ft 11.75 (1.82 m)

Dmeyer says on 24/Nov/12
How tall is c. Nolan hé realy look close in height With dicprio and bale

Christian bale 5'11.75 (182cm)

Morgan freeman 6'1.5 (187cm) NOW

SAMMY DERRICK says on 16/Nov/12
THIS IS AN ARTICLE FROM A NEWSPAPER[LOCAL];IN DARK KNIGHT RISES,BANE NEEDED TO WEAR THREE-INCH HEELS TO LOOK BATMAN IN THE EYE.TOM HARDY,WHOM WE ALL KNOW AS BANE IN THE RECENT BATMAN MOVIE,STANDS AROUND 5FOOT 9.IT IS ORDINARILY NOT THAT SHORT A HEIGHT,BUT COMPARED TO CHRISTIAN BALE,WHO IS SIX FEET TALL THERE IS A BIT OF A HEIGHT DIFFERENCE.
DURING THE PRODUCTION OF THE DARK KNIGHT RISES,THE STUDIO EXECUTIVES WERE KEEN ON HAVING BANE BE THE SAME HEIGHT AS BATMAN.FOR TOM HARDY,THREE-INCH LIFTS WERE MADE.IT WAS SO THAT HE COULD SEE EYE TO EYE WITH BOTH BALE AND MORGAN FREEMAN,AS THEY ARE BOTH ABOVE SIX FEET.
BATMAN IS NORMALLY 6FOOT 2 BUT BALE WAS 6FOOT FLAT AND IS AMONG THE TALLEST BATMAN ACTORS AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE BEST.

Aragorn 5\'11 says on 2/Nov/12
6'0 in the morning
5'11.75 in the day
5'11.5 at night

And 6'2 as Batman. :):) One of the greatest actors of all time!

USYD says on 27/Oct/12
He always looks 183cm-184cm. He always has a tall look to him.

balrog says on 22/Oct/12
Oldman is under 5'9''. Bale is standing better, that's all.

Larc-186.7-188.6cm says on 22/Oct/12
Something's wrong in that pic, it's Bale that strangely looks around 6'1 next to 5'9 Oldman and 6'1.5 Freeman.

balrog says on 16/Oct/12
That's one of the few photos where Bale is standing with great posture and Freeman is clearly not a 6'2'' man anymore since he's 75. Freeman was for sure 6'2'' at his peak if not more and now 186-187 cms.

anon says on 16/Oct/12

whats the deal here? has MF shrunk 2 inches or is Bale wearing lifts?

Hugh Jackman 6'1.5 (187cm)

Christian bale 5'11.75 (182cm)

Bale is 5'11" barefoot in reality.

yeah he did not look 6ft next too hugh jackman.

wilsondurganth says on 11/Oct/12
6.0 ????? 6.1 ????...please,

he has 5.11,25 or 5.11,5(181cm or 182cm), he is not much taller cristopher nolan, he is much short than hugh jackman, morgan freeman or liam neeson



6.0 ???, no chance

Larc-186.7-188.6cm says on 9/Oct/12
Looks 6'0 for sure next to 5'11 Nolan.

AnonUKguy says on 9/Oct/12
As far as I'm concerned he is the same height as me, 184 morning 182 evening. Could be slightly shorter, maybe 183.5 - 181.5cm. I just think next to Freeman and Neeson in batman he looks slightly under 6ft.

James says on 8/Oct/12
the only time bale lookd like a legit tall man in his films was in the machinist when he was skinny. in his batman films he really does look average in stature.

heny says on 3/Oct/12
I dont think he ever stands completely straight, Listed at 6'2" on most sites, I would give him a 6'0.5", or 6'1".

zero says on 12/Sep/12
I agree the transformation from The Machinist to Batman Begins was just sick. From looking anorexic at 120-125 pounds to look ripped at 180-185 pounds. In 3 months. This dramatic weight gain and loss shouldn't be healthy for him.

Danimal says on 11/Sep/12
TrueGuessing says on 9/Sep/12
Bale is 6 feet, he's not a liftwearer. And a great actor by the way. My favorite actor!

He really is a great method actor. From American Psycho to The Machinist to Batman Begins, he has always impressed me.

Yeah the listing is okay, he looks pretty close to 6 foot.

Danimal says on 20/Aug/12
Hovering around that 6'0" mark, give or take .5".

Ajax says on 20/Aug/12
Yeah I think maybe 5'11.5". But likely 5'11".

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 19/Aug/12
He's probably around 6ft2/188cm in the Batman costume.

Alex says on 15/Aug/12
I think he's more 5'11-5'11.5

Tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
Christian bale 5'9.5 - 5'10 in comparison to hardy

LOL 5'9.5". Johnno is worse than Lan Jiao and Viper!

Shaun says on 11/Aug/12
C'mon he's clearly around 6', exactly Maximus. I've seen him look 6'1" and 5'11" though on occasion but he's clearly near his mark

maximus says on 5/Aug/12
Close enough to 6' to argue about it. He is obviously does not come across as short on screen.....minimum 5'11" meaning with shoes 6' to 6'1 thats why he doesnt look short.

Emmanuelle says on 3/Aug/12
Yeah, Christian is honest. He definitely had lifts for Batman, but 6'0" is pretty legitimate for him.

joewhite31 says on 3/Aug/12
5'11" flat, 6'0" in shoes.

BigT says on 2/Aug/12
Same height as 5´10 Aaron Eckhart.

Jake: 1.82 m-- 1.83 m-- 1.84 m says on 1/Aug/12
5'11.75" (1.82 m) minimum.

Chris says on 1/Aug/12
Bale is okay at 6 foot. He could be lower than this at 182 cm but I think he's one of the few honest guy in Hollywood.

Mayur says on 31/Jul/12
Christian is 6 !

BigT says on 30/Jul/12
Ralp: Yup, there´s a good 2-2.5" between Morgan and Christian, but Morgan Freeman is not 6´2" anymore, probably 185-186 cm today, that would make Christian Bale 180 cm or less.

Ralph says on 30/Jul/12
After seeing him in dark night rises next to Morgan Freeman...Bale is six feet...

Rob, sorry for the height question here...but how tall do you have to be at night to have the proper right to say youre a legit six feet?...(182cm)?(182.5)?(182.88)? Thanks!!

Yea, 5'9.5 Hardy is closer to the camera, but it appears that Bale is the within an inch of everyone else and they all have similar footwear with similar posture.

Looks about 1-1.5 inches taller then the 5'9.5 listed joseph gordon-levitt but that 5'9.5 looks a bit in the high end for me. He seems between 5'8.5 - 5'9.25, quite possibly 5'8. Which would would put bale at 5'10.75 at the highest, and 5'10 at lowest compared to a 5'8.5 joseph

Bale 5'10 - 5'10.75
joseph gordon-levitt 5'8.5 - 5'9.25

Chris says on 11/Feb/12
6'0 (183 cms).

Godred says on 10/Feb/12
Still think 5`11 is right.

johno says on 10/Feb/12
and ras you talk the words out of my mouth, wait until they do they do start promoting, i'm wondering where bale is going to pull off looking 3 inches taller then hardy at 6'0. I expect hardy to be around just above bales eyebrow level according to your estimate.

bale 5'10 - 5'10.75 max

johno says on 10/Feb/12
@chris listen, your didn't get the point. Point being, bale equals in freeman in height when we clearly know, freeman is taller. How much taller is another issue, some would say 1 inch but thats just a dream, anywhere between 2.5 - 3 inches and even with freeman ''6'1.25 - 6'1.5 now-a-days,'' bale would not reach 6'0 nor 5'11.5, he could would basically come up short - no pun intended.

Chameleon says on 10/Feb/12
I thought Bale was 180? Wonder what he actually is.

Chris says on 9/Feb/12
@Johno In first pic Freeman is losing posture, he always looks 1.5'' taller than Bale, I posted pics below. Bale 6' stop trolling. Freeman 6'1.25-6'1.5 nowadays.

ok johno, how is this shot more accurate Click Here you cant even see the legs or footwear.

Anyway, lets agree to disagree, sorry for calling you a troll.

johno says on 8/Feb/12
@SAK, as i stated earlier, he looks in the upper 5'9 range with the 5'9 - 5'9.5 in those decent screen shots, no lifts and looks nowhere close to 5'11.5, that surely can be agreed on.

I estimated bale in the 5'10 range at best ie 5'10 - 5'10.75 and nothing more..

''Compared to everyone else bale looks 5'11.5/6f'', well if you mean by everyone else celebrities such as the 6'2 listed morgan freeman, then yeh ..

Here he is, looking 1 inch taller then the 6'2 listed freeman, since we believe bale does not wear lifts, its only fair to say bale is 6'3 right? since they are right next to each other and its a direct relationship. Actually morgan is slouching, so bale is 6'2.5 right? And look, he's about 1.5 inches taller then the 5'8.5 katie holmes with her 4 inch heels making him, 6'2 with shoes and 6'1 without right? so your 5'11.5 is off to with some prominent celebrities, since someone like bale does not wear lifts right?

Now, if we talk a bit more sense. Heres bale with freeman again in a better more accurate shot ..

Freeman is around 3 inches taller then bale. Freeman is listed as 6'2 but most likely has shrunk from that, if i had to pick a number i would pick 6'1, making bale in the 5'10 range at best. 5'11.5 and 6'0 in all reality, is to far out.

If i really wanted to troll. I would state hardy states himself as 5'9. Using the general rule of thumb that most celebrities exaggerate height, i could argue he's 5'8.75 and bale is the same height or a bit taller as clearly shown in those perfect head-to-toe comparison shots - Theres no lifts there, i could argue bale looks a flat 5'9 there with R-E-A-S-O-N but im generous, i still stated he looked in the top 5'9 range and went with the 5'10 range ie 5'10 - 5'10.75, nows thats being completely fair and impartial. He looks it with freeman and looks it with mark wahlberg to.

Tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
Christian bale 5'10 range (looks shorter then this next to hardy)
Morgan freeman 6'1
kate holmes 5'8.5

Legit 6'. No way 5'10. Click Here Hardy himself admitted.

Tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
Christian bale 5'9.5 - 5'10 in comparison to hardy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So compared to Hardy he looks 5ft9.5/5ft10. Yet compared to everyone else Bale looks 5ft11.5/6ft.

I can buy he could be 181cm/5ft11.25 but i still see him @ 5ft11.5/182. Saying Bale is 5ft9.5 is trolling.

Johno's logic again is spot on. I'm not buying anything over 5'10" barefoot for Bale either.

Tom Hardy admitted using 3'' boots to be near Bale's height. I agree with Ras, you're trolling. Bale at 5'10 IS INSANE. 6' for him.

_______________________________________________________________________

I can post more pictures of that scene if your like, its pretty clear. Hardy has no lifts in those shots. Hardy looks bale eye to eye. Hardy is between 5'9 - 5'9.5, you can do the simple maths. As i said before, 6'0 is a fanboy dream. The 5'10 range would be best him.

tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
bale 5'10 - 5'10.75 (Looks in the upper 5'9 range with hardy)

You should not take the s u n tabloid as a reliable source. These 3 inches rumours seem only that, a rumours well at least not in that particular fight scene on the steps. First of all there is no way you get 3 inch lifts in those shoes and 2) It would be very dangerous to do a fight scene on some steps, with lifts on so at least in that particular scene, hardy did not have lifts on, visibly you could tell plus, he matched bale in height.

Bale is not 5'11 or above ..

@Johno,please stop trolling...if you aren't ABSOLUTELY DO NOT compare him with Tom when he is "Bane" its absurd...he is wearing lifts in his boots as stated earlier in production so both "Batman" and "Bane" can look eachother eye to eye and that is not a rumour its a fact.Anything below 5'11.25 for Bale is not serious.
____________________________________________________________________________

Your name randomly pops out of nowhere and calls me a troll, i call that trolling. 5'11.25 seems like a fanboy dream. In that particular set of pictures, the fight scene between bane and batman set on the footsteps of that building, hardy does not appear to have any lifts on if anything, bale does since batman's shoes look quite chunky. I don't know what kind of lifts they used since, bane is ment to tower batman, or at least be taller, clearly hardy is not and has not been made to appear to, what is the point?

No wonder if the fighter, bale did not dominate the 5'7 mark wahlberg in height, its because he isn't that much above average. A legit 5'11ish guy would look tallish, bale does not. Bale is not in the 5'11 range and 6'0, well ......

Hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
christian bale 5'10 the best ( looks in the upper end of the 5'9 range in comparison with hardy, no lifts )

..................Point being, he's very far from the 6'0 mark and similary, not close to the 5'11 figure. Best he could be is 5'10.5 but could even shorter as evident by the tom hardy comparisons.

johno says on 1/Feb/12
@chris, your first link, you can't tell wear the actors are standing and what on thus bale gains a bit of height and in your second link where the entire bodyshots becomes avaliable, bale barely has any height on the 5'9 - 5'9.5 tom hardy.

Plus, any height he does have at the top of his head is due to his rubber mask. The tip of his head is not that high thus, tom hardy and bale and nearly equals in height.

Tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
Christian bale 5'9.5 - 5'10 in comparison to hardy

Chris says on 31/Jan/12
Bale at 5'10 is insane. The guy is an honest 6 footer (He's listed 6'1 in many sites and even at 6'2). That pic is misleading. Here are other two pics and Bale is clearly taller. Click Here

- As someone posted earlier, he hardly has any height on the 5'9 tom hardy. Contrary to popular belief, hardy has no lifts and infact, bales boots give him an advantage.

tom hardy 5'9 - 5'9.5
bale 5'9.5 - 5'10 with hardy ( Cannot work this one out )
