This doesn't seem right. Bill Murray is listed here shorter than David Letterman but in the first video below he's apparently at least an inch taller than Letterman. Same goes with George Clooney, who virtually looks just 2 inches shorter than David.

Either Bill Murray is 6ft 2.5in and George Clooney is 5ft 11.5in. Or Letterman is shorter than listed here. I agree with people on this forum David's height is at least an inch to much.

Lenad, you're close. I remember a pic Rob had with Letterman and some other 5'10" guy and Letterman only looked 1-2 inches taller. Jim Carrey was shorter in the 1994 interview. Jim Carrey 6'.05". Letterman 6'1". That's what I think.
Lenad is sexy says on 21/Apr/13
the same height as Jim Carrey if not a tad taller in 1994. 187cm peak

That's what you'd have to infer, because Frank Ocean is not anything over 5'10". Honestly, go to Getty Images and type in these names and see what you come up with. Tyler simply isn't anything even approximately 6'2". He looks somewhere in between 5'11" and 6'0".
Rah 6\'0\" says on 8/Apr/13
MD if it is true about Frank Ocean being 5'10". but if tyler has claimed 6'2 and is seen as being the same height or a shade taller than frank than Letterman is weak 6'1 Tyler strong 5'11"?
MD says on 8/Apr/13
Whoa, Rah.

You are WAY off. Frank Ocean is 5'10" tops. He's only as tall as Seth MacFarlane. What struck me about his appearance on Letterman was how much shorter he was. I've seen 6'4" listings for Tyler, which I always knew were bull, and that really proved it. Tyler is lucky if he's a full 6'0".
Rah 6\'0\" says on 6/Apr/13
Keep in mind when 6'2" tyler the creator was on the show letterman had a huge show advantage since tyler usually wears converse chuck taylors. I really wish tyler had a page bcuz he seems to be the same height as frank ocean who looks a legit 6 foot. 2 inches is a huge flucutation.
lenad is sexy says on 6/Apr/13
I can buy a full 6'2 for letterman at his prime. No more though
Big T says on 6/Apr/13
Tyler the Creator has always claimed 6'2" and Dave was taller than him easily. I dunno why so many people wanna downgrade Dave.
Tempest says on 7/Mar/13
Anthony Perkins is what you'd call a legitimate 6'2" guy. Lanky, skinny and awkward looking and yet he's listed as 6'1.5" on here. He is at least 6'2". He very likely is 6'2.5" as he claimed. Letterman is shorter.
Tempest says on 5/Mar/13
Rob, that picture of that one 5'10.5" guy with Letterman made Letterman look 6' or less... Please don't tell me you're being paid to make celebrities taller than they really are.
Tempest says on 5/Mar/13
And as I deduced Anthony Perkons is taller than David Letterman. I realize this is bad for comparing heights but simply compare lankiness and try to put yourself directly in front of the two using your imagination.

Let us not forget about the picture of Letterman and that 5'10.5" guy Rob knew where Letterman only looked 6' max.
Tempest says on 1/Mar/13
If Chris Barrie in that video is 5'11" then Craig Ferguson looks 184 cm.

Next to 5'10 Jon Bon Jovi: Click Here
I\'M smart. says on 29/Dec/12
Craig Ferguson is 5'11" I know celebs and their heights. Letterman is 6'2' in the morning. Then he get's a litttle shorter.

When Sylvester Stallone was at his show, he was almost as tall (elevator shoes anyone?) .-)
Silent d says on 1/Oct/12
187cm but he has good posture for a 65 year old man. I'm surprised he is as tall as his peak height.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 29/Sep/12
6ft2/188cm peak is possible since he still looks 186-187cm on his show. Didn't he claim 6ft2.5 at one point aswell?
Sam says on 27/Sep/12
We almost always shrink with age..
David & Arnold are both over 60.
Anon says on 27/Sep/12
Letterman is exactly 6'1.5 (186.5cm), David Cameron looked almost as tall as him on the show. I would say Cameron is more 185cm than 184, Obama looks a fraction taller than him at 185.5cm. Will Smith looked the same height as Letterman and Rafael Nadal looked more than an inch shorter I give Nadal 183.5cm
Larc-186.7cm-188.6cm says on 26/Sep/12
@2tall:
No way, Arnold was around my same height at peak, at least 6'1.5 and so was Letterman, 5'11 is trolling.
Larc-186.7cm-188.6cm says on 25/Sep/12
He's shorter than Obama today.
2tall says on 19/Sep/12
I am a 6'1" woman and every guy who is 5'10 clsims to be 6'. Celebties all fudge height. Arnold is 5"11 mac. I towered over him at a fundraiser
Silent d says on 18/Sep/12
Greg you have to watch the shows again when he shakes their hands, they are on even ground. He wears boat shoes. No lift there. Sometimes when celebrities do the top ten, he goes to shake hands with them and he is usually taller. Next to romney a while back ago, romney was slightly taller and he is 6 foot 2 but i think he had a shoe advantage. David is 187cm but the funny thing is, some nfl players always seem to stand him up. He is an enigma. Some things can't be explained.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 2/Sep/12
I don't see Arnold having 2in on Letterman. Besides he's way closer to the camera.
They look virtually the same with Letterman maybe edging Arnold out by a bit.
John says on 16/Aug/12
Two inches shorter than Arnold here: Click Here

Arnold was supposedly 6'1.5 at his peak, but maybe he was wearing lifts?
Silent d says on 1/Feb/12
I assume 187cm is right on because no one is commenting anymore.
