He looks 5'9.75 at least with Rob, what are you talking about? Rob isn't a 5'8 flat guy, he's 5'8.25 at the very least and this guy is no way 5'9.5 or under like you described. That's a solid 1.5 inch difference minimum and 2 inch maximum.

Do you think he’s surpassed this height today? I watched the tv series Daybreak and it looked like he grew another 2-3 inches.

Pathetic height frauder. Not even 5'10 and claiming 5'11 to 6'0. 5'9 3/4 - 5
10 throughout much of the day, 5'9.5 at night. Wonder if he would claim "5'10 maybe 5'11" when he shrinks to like 5'8.5. Lol clown.

He literally only looks an inch taller than Rob if we're looking at the top of their heads (he also has more hair to take into consideration). If you compare chin heights, his is much higher up because his long neck and wow, his tiny head lol. Looks 5'9.25 to me. I don't agree with the listing. If anything, he's 5'9.5" at most but I still don't see that here. He needs a downgrade to at least 5'9.5" but I think that's being pretty generous.

This is one of the few child actors who grew up to be average height. Almost every other child actor I know of has only grown to be 5 ft. 4-5 ft. 7.”

Hasn't this li'le fellow grown up? I was just about to request him, having been watching him in 'We Bought a Zoo'. I read he was 5'10" tall, but I think (I think I know!) that Rob knows otherwise....
5ft9.5" - quite tall for a child actor!

Rob, would he be the exact average height for a 18-30 year old male today?

Editor RobWithin the average range, which is close to 5ft 10 in countries like America and UK.
Bobby said on 14/Jan/19
Looking back on this, I think I would edge him out by a 1/4-1/2. I would place his range more in the 176 range than 177 range. Could just be his proportions though. Rob has had pictures with other celebs with the same listing who appear taller next to him than he does. Such as Elden Henson for instance.

The average guess is spot on! Somewhere in-between 5'9.5-5'9.75, depending on footwear. 177 cm suits him well. Not a hair over though.

Rob, do you base these listings on their afternoon measurements or what they'd measure in the evening? I'd still wager to guess that he's a decent 5'10 anyway.

That tiny short head give illusion of 5'10 especially the hair. He could be around 175.5cm barefoot so i"ll say 5'9.25

even with hair he doesn't reach 5'10 mark base on your scale on the photo.

Rob, considering that you average out around 5'8.5", he doesn't look much more than an inch taller than you. Your eye level is lower because he has a bit of a taller neck than you. I'd say 5'9.5" is more reasonable. What do you think?

Editor Rob I measure 5ft 8.25 on my stadiometer after being on feet 6 hours (like at any event I will be on feet a lot since 7am), and since the stadiometer gives near 1/8th extra I would safely say I was in the 5ft 8 1/8th range as this is a lunchtime photo.

He looks more 5'9.5" any chance to modify the listing rob?

Well, if his hair is only 0.4-0.5, I confirm what i said at the beginning: 177 with the hair and more a solid 5'9 if measured, after shaving his head :)
5'9.25 fits him!

Editor Rob somewhere in 0.4-0.5 range I would guess...incidentally I hadn't realised the photographer had turned his camera to landscape instead of the default portrait. By the time I got my printout from colin and his other co-actor they had gone, and the photographer did apologise, for some reason he thought I asked him for landscape...it should have been like Portrait...
anyway, I thought he looked over 5ft 9 but not a full 5ft 10, anywhere around 177 I guessed.

The lad is no more than 5'9"-5'9.5" range, the 5'11" listing on every site is an utter joke.

BTW, here he is with 5'9" Mike Vogel from earlier this year. Vogel has a footwear advantage in this shots, though, I'm not sure how much of an advantage it is:

And, really, that's assuming a full 5'9" for Vogel, which is his most recent self-claimed height.

I think the hair on him may be throwing off your estimate, Rob.

He looks more a solid 5'9 than a weak 5'10 here... He grew a lot, didn't he, Rob? I saw a photo with Jared (dated back to 2010, but maybe taken a bit before) where he doesn't look over 5'...
