Let's not forget other short celebrities such as Tom Cruise, Woody Allen, Michael J Fox, etc, who have accomplish success as actors despite their short physical stature. Let's not forget also that in essense Hollywood is a make believe world which is closer to fantasy and idealism than actual reality, where a man can be made to appear taller using the tools of the trade. In the case of DJ, he should be proud of his success as an actor despite his short stature. There is no correlation between height and being a good actor or a success in Hollywood so there is highly a need to lie about his height. He is a 5'7"+ tall man, well proportionate, which makes him look good on camera. heightcritique says on 18/Sep/08
sicko, you're friend is right. I also worked with him and I can assure you Don Johnson is 5'7" or mabye 5'7 1/2" barefoot. All Hollywood insiders know that shoes are specially made for stars so they can appear taller to their fans. It is a way to keep audiences interested and a subtle attempt to make fans idealize their idols. As far as the height appearances on screen: deliberate manipulation using camera angles and waist up scene shots can easily cover the height of a short celebrity which is the case with Don Jonhson or DJ as he is known to all us that worked with him.

k fag worked with him...he's my hieght...5'10 barefoot and he said he was way taller than him by like 3 inches.... glenn says on 24/Jun/08
i believe you cudzuqueen. cudzuqueen says on 23/Jun/08
Okay, now I'm confused. I just finished watching an episode of Nash Bridges. Will Sampson was a guest star...the top of Don's head hit Sampson at his eyes. If Sampson is indeed around 6'4.5" or 6'5", how is this possible? Don happened to be wearing flat-heeled bucks this episode. Somebody's height is off here. Anonymous says on 24/Apr/08
5'8 barefoot and 5'10 - 5'11 in his lifts Liza says on 22/Apr/08
Yeah, even though he looks way taller than Glenn, you can tell he's only like one inch taller than him, because their arms are like the same height. Gary's GLitter says on 9/Apr/08
Johnson quite clearly towers above GLenn here. LIfts or no lifts... Marcelo C. says on 18/Mar/08
Sonnygurl: With all respect, I don´t quite agree with you. I´ve seen several pictures where Andy Garcia and D.J. are together, and they look aprox the same height. García is listed 5´9" in this site, what´s similar to 5´9.5" D.J. is listed here (for me it´s also wrong, as I´p put him at 5´8" or 5´8.5" max., and my opinion also agrees with the pictures I was referring to).
Besides, just to compare, nowadays 80 year old Roger Moore stands 6´, and consider that when you see them on screen, they don´t look the same height, even with the best effort. Anonymous says on 1/Mar/08
Noooooo way Costner is 6'3. He is 6'1 not 6'3. Most people say they are one or two inches taller than they really are. dmeyer says on 24/Feb/08
look 5'11 in the pics so 5'9.5 to 5'9.75 Sonnygurl says on 30/Jan/08
Okay there is no way that Don Johnson is 5'9 people Melanie Griffith is 5'10 flat footed and she is not as tall as DJ! He's six feet at least, because Jennifer Connelly is 5'10 also and Rene Russo is 5'9 and he's taller than all three! The camera man is on his tip toes and Johnson is not standing up straight.Kevin Costner is 6'3 not 6'1 my cousin was in the Postman with him! Heightassessment says on 26/Dec/07
Take off the boots with the lifts and you get a man similar in height as young Glenn. Don was also young in this picture so add that to the equation (he is arount 60 now) and what remains is a 5'7" tall man. I personally have stood next to Don when he was wearing sandals and I can guaranty that the man is not taller than 5'8" with normal shoes on. He is a short man in height. He has a slim built and short legs which is the reason he is photographed and filmed above the waist so he will not appear short. The 5'9" height listed here is probably with dress shoes with lifts. Height Detective says on 25/Dec/07
I just saw a chapter of "Miami Vice" and there is no way DJ is shorter than the height listed here. In that episode there was John Turturro as a mafia boss ,and the guy is 6.1 ,at one point Sonny goes to a party organized by turturro and as soon as he enters the room ,they stood next to each other ,there is only and inch and a half or two inches in height difference at best and Turturro doesnt tower over DJ ,and in Vice he is wearing shoes with no heels so no way he is 5.7. Anonymous says on 17/Oct/07
In the photo of glenn with DJ, Melanie is as tall as DJ and perhas 1 inch taller (she is not straight). In this site melanie is cited to be 5.8.5 (174 cm). The difference with Glenn is due to lift wearing. Why, it should be not the case for Don, wearing in public show, special shoes with high lifts. glenn says on 9/Oct/07
no pavement or step.flat ground.the lowest this man could be is 5-9.im betting on 5-10 making the most sense.if its 5-9,keep in mind im 5-7 in the pic.5-9 + his lifts make him 5-11,6ft. ivan says on 6/Oct/07
from the eyes to the top of the head are 10 cm. glenn is 10 cm smaller than don. for this height, look at the picture of glenn and kevin costner , and you will see what i want to say. Marcelo C. says on 5/Oct/07
It´s a mistery. In Miami Vice, there´s no possibility of "lifts", as his sport shoes used to look too flat. I guess roughly 5´8", or 5´9" max.. I don´t agree with Ivan, as in the pic. above with Glenn there may be a pave or step "helping" Mr. Wayne Don Johnson. ivan says on 20/Sep/07
man, look at Glenn and look at Don. The cm difference is 8cm at least. how can you say he is 177 cm? 180 cm at least. glenn says on 18/Sep/07
that was interesting frenchy. frenchy says on 17/Sep/07
OK, I like DJ so much, he is a great actor for me. I saw again the episode with Phil collins in vice. Collins is about 1 inch shorter than Moreno (Isy), the twice with zero heels shoes. In the same episode we can see that DJ is maximum an inch greater than Moreno. Finally , we know that Phil is short, max 168 cm (5.6). If it's exact, we have Moreno 5.7(170 cm) and DJ 172 cm (5.8 max). In the episode with Bruce willis DJ is about 3 inches less than Willis. If Willis is 180 cm, DJ is 173 cm max. I hope that all these comparisons are not too boring. Thank you for yours answers. glenn says on 16/Sep/07
i believe that jt. JT says on 16/Sep/07
Saw him in golf shoes about 5 years ago. He looked roughly 5'10". frenchy says on 8/Sep/07
Ok, it 's possible that DJ wore no lifts shoes in vice (at least in views where we can see the shoes). Shena easton is wearing some lifts (perhaps two inches, so 159 cm at maximum). DJ has 1 inch lift with flat shoes so 178 cm in the hypothese of 176 cm. The difference in the couple will be something as 20 cm and it is not the case. If DJ is a tall man,all the characters in vice did'nt need to be small size actors (shena Easton, EJO, Laura Santiago and so one). I wonder wether PM Thomas is really 5.10. If it is really, DJ wore lifts (I think 2 inches). Last idea, are we sure thar glenn is on a flat floor, and are we sure that glenn is 5.7 in the photo?? Glenn didn' look like an average man here... Nolifts81 says on 8/Sep/07
Frenchy- I know something about lifts and elevator shoes so and I can say to you that in "miami vice" he had on normal shoes, without lifts.I am almost sure he is 176cm barefeet. Viper says on 8/Sep/07
5-9 is certantly the lowest you can go for Don If hes wearing lifts there. frenchy says on 8/Sep/07
In the casting of miami vice, shena Easton was choosen (154 cm)to be the crockett's wife with a normal difference in height for the couple. If DJ is 176 cm with eventually lifts, we remarked an enormous difference between the two actors. I thinh that DJ is 5.8 barefoot and 5.9 and 5. 10 depending on the shoes . Daniel says on 7/Sep/07
So Edward James olmos must be 174cm tall. Seems realistic to me, I think you're right, Nolifts! Nolifts81 says on 7/Sep/07
He was wearing lifts in that pic! He is a hair taller than 5'9" barefeet.I've met his partner in "Miami Vice" Philip Micheal Thomas 2 times and he is exactly my height that is 177cm. Don was about 0.5 inch shorter Than Philip micheal Thomas so he is max 176cm. He is a lifts wearer! Daniel says on 4/Sep/07
I agree with Anthony and Glenn. Johnson must be 5'9 to 5'10, as it seems from the Miami Vice episodes. His partner Thomas must be half an inch taller, and Olmos half an inch shorter than Johnson. That's it! glenn says on 4/Sep/07
seemed normal.of course he is 5-10 with 2 inch lifts it seems. Anonymous says on 4/Sep/07
What about his footwear Glenn, he could and most likely wearing his height increasing shoes/boots! glenn says on 3/Sep/07
sept or october 1991. Bryon says on 3/Sep/07
When was this pic taken? Sebas says on 2/Sep/07
Something is off, Glenn looks way smaller than him... He might just be 5'10 glenn says on 2/Sep/07
he looks taller cause anything under 5-10 is bull**** people like to spread without even meeting the guy.he was 5-11ish,maybe even 6ft whenever i saw him.now i dont doubt lifts.he lived in the city so i saw him all the time.remember,i was 5-7 here. Anthony says on 1/Sep/07
C'mon, Don is not 5'7 or even 5'8. He's not under 5'9 and could've been 5'10. Anna says on 1/Sep/07
Why does he look so much taller than Glenn? Viper says on 1/Sep/07
He never looked short on Miami Vice. Anonymous says on 31/Aug/07
DJ appears around 5'7 to 5'8 max barefoot and 5'10 in his height enhancing footwear! (He did look tiny in 'Miami Vice') Viper says on 30/Aug/07
Don has more height on Glenn than I would have thought. I would have said Max 5-10 for him. But here he looks 5-11 no less. Jackie says on 30/Aug/07
I think he must be either standing on a sidewalk or something next to Glenn, or otherwise he's wearing lifts. I have made a photo collage. In one photo, Johnson stands next to 5'11"-ish former Starsky and Hutch actor Paul Michael Glaser, when he directed an episode of Miami Vice in the 1980's. The angle is a bit off, but Glaser has at least an inch on Johnson, if not more. Then pictures with his former wife, the 5'8"-ish Melanie Griffith. In older photos, they're wearing the same footwear, and Melanie is either the same height, or taller. Also one picture with 6'2" Warren Beatty, taken in the seventies. Click Here
Re: Kevin Costner's height

he was nice,but would always try to avoid posing.she can be a phony.he always seemed at least 5-11.i never understood the 5-8,5-9 stories.here i was 5-7.but he still towers me. mofo says on 30/Aug/07
Glenn was he wearing lifts or not cause he looks 6ft to 6ft1 in the pics I'm like worried now!!
P.s was he nice or an ass cause a lot people say he is a man whore! Anthony says on 29/Aug/07
The man wore slipper shoes on "Miami Vice" and did not look short. He's at least 5'9, possibly 5'10. Anonymous says on 28/Jul/07
I Think he is no more than 5'8 barefoot, now a bit under that. I saw him as 5'8 on 'Miami Vice' Vandal 2 says on 26/Jun/07
cudzuqueen: in the photo you posted Don is sitting down with his wife on the stands. I think you posted the wrong pictue. In regards to the photos of Don with Mick's ex, if you look at the elevator shoes website, most shoes will make you 3.5" taller in height. The trick is to wear pants with long hems so they will cover the unusual shape of the shoe in the back part or where the lift is placed. I have seen Don face to face and I can tell you that he is a little taller than 5'8" with normal shoes. Barefoot I think he is 5'7". cudzuqueen says on 17/Jun/07
Next to Mick's ex...he looks mighty close in height...so you're saying he's wearing 4-5" lifts? Do they that high? How tall is his wife?
Click Here Cpt. Crunch says on 3/Jun/07
Philip Michael Thomas is listed at 5-10 in this site. So if Don Johnson had ever gone liftless, there'd be a 2" difference!!! Vandal 2 says on 26/May/07
Vandal, Johnson looked short to me in "Guilty as Sin." Watch the movie again and pay attention to the heights of the extras and other actors and you'll see that Johnson is not taller than 5'8". George H.'s picture of Johnson (posted here) is a good reference to Don's true height. I don't know why he is listed here as being 5'9.5" It must be another Johnson. robotix says on 16/May/07
George H. Melanie Griffith doesn't look 5-8 in the photo. George H. says on 16/May/07
Borrowing another combination pic of Jackie's here. You'll see a tiny pic of Johnson and Melanie Griffith next to 6'2" Beatty on the top right hand side Click Here vandal says on 16/May/07
Remember "Guilty as Sin". He looked tallish in dress shoes. DeMornay and everybody else in that movie would have to be downgraded quite a bit if DJ was 5-8. I'd say 5'2.5" +3" or 4" heels for DeMornay. And that doesn't say much for Tom Cruise in "Risky Business" Anonymous says on 12/May/07
Don Johnson or DJ (as he is called by his friends and colleages) is 5'8.5" with shoes (without lifts), and a little over 5'7" barefoot. People can speculate here all they want, or give false testimony for professional gain, but the fact of the matter is that this actor was close to 5'8" in his younger years and now, at age 60 something, he is closer to 5'7". Brad says on 5/Apr/07
Johnson was 5' 9" or close to 5' 10" as you can get right in my freaking face wearing sneakers. Just watch "Miami Vice". He wore zero heel slipper shoes with no socks. Anonymous says on 24/Mar/07
A couple of years ago, Planet Hollywood restaurant in LA had several stars appeared together for their annyversay, and Don and Stallone was among them. Side by side Stallone was taller than Johnson so if Stallone is 5'9", Don is 5'8". Both of them appeared with questionable footwear: Stallone with high heel shoes, and Don wih high heeled cowboy boots so do compare. Viper says on 23/Mar/07
I would have guessed 5-10 for Don. I can buy 5-9 for him, not any shorter. glenn says on 22/Mar/07
i said he looked 5-11ish consistantly,not that he was.no way he is 5-8.i agree with brad.no smaller than 5-9. Anonymous says on 22/Mar/07
He stood in front of me: 5'8". I am 5'11.5" and my friend who was with me is 5'9", and he was taller than Don by an inch. Glenn, we get it: he lived by you and you were probably friends but he is still 5'8". Brad says on 14/Mar/07
Come on man he's 5' 9". He wore slipper shoes on "Miami Vice" and held his height with other actors that were 5' 9" and right in front of me at the Jerome Hotel in Aspen 2 decades ago. glenn says on 12/Mar/07
you use your intelligence,cause your statement was assinine.you dont even know what your talking about,yet your an expert on lifts and dons height now.he lived in nyc.i saw him weekly at 5-11ish. Anonymous says on 11/Mar/07
Shoes with lifts make you at least 3" tall minimum, so if Don is 5'11" with lifts, his real height is 5'8". I have never seen shoes with lifts advertised for less than 3" inches height increase (I suppose is more for Hollywood stars since they are use custom made shoes with lifts), so use your intelligence and deduction...5'8" end of story.
[Editor Rob: you should read the elevator article...3 inches total is a huge amount.
don was on jonathan ross a few months back with no lifts, not looking a 5ft 8 guy] glenn says on 11/Mar/07
i believe 5-9 over 5-8 any day.he was 5-11 when i saw him.in lifts i guess.i was 5-7 then though. Brad says on 11/Mar/07
5' 9" and wears lifts. Heightcritique says on 16/Jan/07
Glenn, I was talking about you. I enjoyed your input in this site but there is no excuse for you when you start insulting other participants. Anonymous did not show disrespect to you, he was questioning your judgment. He has a point: in Miami Vice, Olmos is about an inch taller than Johnson, so I also think that Johnson is 5'8". Glenn says on 14/Jan/07
Exactly.then people shouldnt start with me first.LOADS or should I say most here respect.I show love and respect back. Heightcritique says on 13/Jan/07
I thought this site was about discussing celebrities height in a civil way...........Autograph dealer or whatever he is should set an example for the rest of the good nature people who view and participate in your site. Just a suggestion: filter content for civility. Glenn says on 8/Jan/07
Why would I be in L.A. when I live and do 95% of my work in NYC jerkoff? shows how ignorant you are.and yes,I have an ego.we all do.your supposed to have one idiot.as long as its healthy and not overblown.Don DID appear taller than Olmos.I SAID 5-11 for Don and 5-8ish,5-9 for Olmos.what dont you understand? if Don was wearing lifts the MANY times I saw him cause he lived near me,then crucify me for not knowing at the tender age of 18,19 at 5-7.Im almost 35 now. since he is reported short so much,maybe he is 5-9.minimum.Stallone is the most mythic of short heights and he is a legit 5-10.5! now shall you continue being a wiseass? a few were removed for that.wait till my Don pic pops up.Im practically on my tip toes,and he is still 3 or 4 inches taller than my then 5-7 frame.that equals 5-9 minimum.how IGNORANT a statement about my height judgement! HA! get a life pal.oh wait you have one since you went to a party or 2.stay with the parties and leave the nobodys like myself alone on this site.hallelujah! Anonymous says on 7/Jan/07
Mr A, disregard my last comment, I read it fast and thought it read five five. It is true that Don appears taller than what he really is, but he is closer to 5'8" than 5'9". If you see a 5'9" guy standing next to Don as a reference, one can see that he is closer to 5'8". Anonymous says on 7/Jan/07
Mr A, Last time I saw Johnson was about seven years ago, and he was 5'8". I don't think he shrinked to 5'5" in seven years. Is that possible? My Grandfather was 6'2" in his prime, and in his 90's he had lost 3 inches. Last time we measured him before he past away last year, he was 5'11". I think Don is around 55 years old so a dramatic lost of height is very unlikely. Anonymous says on 7/Jan/07
Glenn, you did not respond to my question: who is taller Don or Olmos? I said Olmos. If you say Don then I would seriously question the reliability of your judgement and input in this website. As far as meeting stars, no one holds a monopoloy, and if you said you do, then your ego is as big as some of these celebrities. I did not see you in the party I was recently in LA, and many stars were there...hmmm, maybe you left early? Glenn says on 6/Jan/07
Ok,you met them,so you use your judgement.and yes,I DO hold monopoly.just cause your in the industry,allegedly,doesnt mean you meet everyone.unless your hitting every event and party,which I dont think you are,cause youd be reporting.for that matter,Im in the industry too.big whoop. Mr A says on 6/Jan/07
I just read an interview with Don Johnson in the Daily Mail, as he is appearing in Guys and Dolls in the West End, London. The interviewer says Johnson is five nine. Anonymous says on 6/Jan/07
Okay, so if Olmos could be 5'9" and he is taller than Don (a fact), how can Don Johnson be 5'9" or taller than Olmos? Face it, his height is this site is not accurate. And for the record, I met Don and Olmos also. You don't hold a monopoly in meeting celebrities you know. I work in the industry. Glenn says on 5/Jan/07
For starts,this isnt my site,nor do I do the listing.furthermore,I MEET these people,you dont.Olmos could be 5-9 actually.he was taller than me.but this was 16 years ago,when I was 5-7. Anonymous says on 5/Jan/07
Have it your way Glenn. Then Edward James Olmos is 5'10?!!!!...we all know from Battlestar Galactica that Olmos is not over 5'8" so if you have not seen shoes with three inch soles (or Don with his Cowboy boots or customed made elevator shoes) then go ahead and list Don at 5'9"; oops, I meant 5'9.5"! Glenn says on 2/Jan/07
He is 5-11ish in my photo with him.so minimum,5-9 if he is a lift wearer. anonymous says on 1/Jan/07
Don is not 5'9", he is 5'8". Edward James Olmos is listed here at 5'8.5" and he is taller than Johnson (that is a fact). It is time to downgrade him to 5'8" which is his real height. anonymous says on 26/Dec/06
Don Johnson is a short guy. He is lean and wears lifts in his shoes. Saw him a couple of years ago on a set wearing sandals and he is more like in the 5'8" range. Someone who knows him well told me he is even shorter now. Brad says on 23/Nov/06
Naw, he wore slipper type of shoes on Miami Vice. His 5' 9" height held well with guest stars. Anonymous says on 7/Nov/06
5'9" with shoes; 5'7.5" without shoes. Period. End of story...and more height depending on what shoes and lifts he is wearing. He has a pair of cowboy boots with a high heel and lifts in it (lifting him about 3+ inches), which are his favorite shoes to wear to casual public appearances. Brad says on 7/Nov/06
5' 9" when I saw him in Aspen 20 years ago. Wears lifts in expensive shoes. Arrogant guy but becomes very cool if you bring up Warhol, Edie Sedgewick, Sal Mineo. Glenn says on 30/Oct/06
I have a photo with him where he looks 5-11 next to me. Anonymous says on 29/Oct/06
He is 5'7.5" barefoot. I know him and he wears lifts in his shoes which make him taller. He is not a tall man but looks average because of his slim frame. anonymous says on 9/Sep/06
right on Bleemo! I've always got the sense that don johnson is very arrogant, very full of himself. Anonymous says on 7/Sep/06

i have shaken his hand...being 6 0 myself i would say hes 5 10 or 5 11 Ben says on 17/Jul/06
He looks like 3 inches taller than his buddy Joe in Nash Bridges so 5'9" or 5'10" Nolifts81 says on 14/Jun/06
I have to say that I've seen better an episode of "Nash Bridges" where the camera was focus on his shoes. He had elevator shoes on!I think that at least 1 inch was inside that tipe of shoe.So I think that he can be only 5'9". Frank2 says on 7/Jun/06
For those who still insist that Don Johnson is 5'10" I'd like to remind everyone that when he starred in the mediocre TV version of The Long Hot Summer he and Jason Robards were the same height. Robards was never more than 5'9" and in his later years (which is when this was made) was about 5'8". And when Cybil Shepherd is around she and Johnson are about the same height. That is until she wears heels. Then forget it! Frank2 says on 5/Jun/06
Stallone is no more 5'10" than Johnson is. But Bandaras is defintely 5'9". Glenn says on 5/Jun/06
I always felt that Sly was 5-9 to 5-10.so,yes,I agree. Nolifts81 says on 5/Jun/06
Yes Maybe Glenn, but I think that Stallone and Don Johnson are about the same height, I think they are more 5'9.75(177cm).I think that Don and Sly are a little bit taller than Banderas.Years ago I saw a clip "The making of Assassins" and Stallone with normal dress shoes (no room for accomodate lifts) looked about 1 inch taller than Banderas.Glenn, I think so, maybe I am wrong.How do you think about this? Glenn says on 4/Jun/06
I think all 3 men are 5-9 barefoot.a possibility. Frank2 says on 4/Jun/06
Don doesn't wear huge lifts. Just look how short he appears. Study all the photos. There is no way on earth he's 5'10". If he is then I'm a solid 6'1"! Glenn says on 3/Jun/06
Melanie was always taller than me.I must be 5-5.you make sense on the others nolifts. Nolifts81 says on 3/Jun/06
Frank this means that Don Johnson and Stallone wears huge lifts all the time.I think that Stallone wears very often huge lifts but I don't think that Don Johnson wears always huge lifts. I know wery well elevator shoes and lifts for my personal experience. Frank2 says on 3/Jun/06
I've seen Melanie and she's under 5'7". Her mom is really tiny. Check out me with her at Tippi's thread. And I've seen Sigourney up close in flats and she and I are about the same height. And yes, Bandaras is taller than both Johnson and Stallone. Nolifts81 says on 2/Jun/06
Frank I am not agree only about Melanie Griffith's height. I think she is in the 5'8" range. I agree with you about 6'1" Costner; 6'1" Harrison Ford;and 5'9" Banderas. P.S. I think that Sigourney Weaver is a little more than 5'11", more 5'11.75.You really think that Banderas is taller than Don Johnson and Sylvester Stallone? Glenn says on 2/Jun/06

I would say the vast majority of NBA players are measured with shoes. They also round up. Apparently they do have the option of having their without shoes height as their listed one, but evidently few exercise it. Sometimes even more (in addition to the in shoes + round up) is added to a player's height. Larry says on 2/Jun/06
Frank2 - Thanks. But I'll need to make sure we have those in Austin. :-) It's such a rip-off. I pay twice as much, but I'm NOT twice as big. Well, not REALLY twice as big. And Rob: You could just CLAIM to be 2" taller like most celebrities apparently do. :-) Just kidding. You know, my basketball fiend daughter took me to a few SPURS games in San Antonio over the past few years (NOT this year, of course... having other fun) and the players ON BOTH teams (whichever team) often seemed a wee bit less than advertised, so maybe they DO measure these guys in shoes? Frank2 says on 1/Jun/06
I saw him many times at Universla when he returned from Florida doing Maimi Vice and he was at the very least three inches shorter than me. So was his co-star. Nolifts81 says on 1/Jun/06

Now, how do we have Don Johnson so high when those who have seen and worked with him have him no taller than 5'9" and even as short as 5'7"? Evidence, please? Frank2 says on 26/May/06
Then I'm six feet one. Nolifts81 says on 25/May/06
I think this guy is really 5'10".I watched every single episode of "Miami Vice" and "Nash Bridges". Compared to all the other co-stars(I know their heights)he looks always 5'10". rjt says on 1/May/06
Hello, do you think Jo Ann is wearing flats to a formal affair? I bet she's wearing at least 3" heels! Duh! leonari says on 13/Mar/06
Olmos ain't taller than 5'9"...I think we can really agree on that. He looks almost an ich taller than Johnson (who is always wearing very thin soled shoes on Vice). If Don Johnson is 5'10"...I don't now...Than SLY is really the 6 footer he wants to look like ...Sly is a legit 5'10 or 5'9.5. Johnson is clarly smaller. 174 cm. Not above and for sure not below.

Don is five eight max. Niigato says on 13/Jan/06
I saw the Kung fu episode , at times he looked a lot shorter than 5 10 ,
next to D. Carradine he looked 5 7 , there`s a shot almost naked, shooting his entire body, his head was very big for his body ( which means he is not tall )
he was very skinny then, different eyebrows and slightly different nose.
In Miami Vice they cared a lot about it, but I recently saw an episode from season 4 ´Missing Hours` , he stands next to Eduard James Olmos, almost eye to eye ( u barely find this angle throughout the vice ) and we all know EduardJO is not tall at all.

174-175, 5'9" dosen´t look any higher
look him in a movie the 'hotspot' with jennifer conelly and virginia madsen he is barefoot near to the lake, he has a large body so it would make him looks smaller tha he problaby is, but he looks 174, no more, le looks very shorter than costner in tin cup, at least 3 inches

I worked for him and he is 5'7". He uses special made shoes to make him look taller. He is body and weight proportionate, so he looks taller. Michael says on 14/Apr/05
In the recently-released DVD, "Kung Fu: The Complete Second Season," there's an episode called "The Spirit-Helper" in which a 23-year-old Don Johnson guest stars as (of all things) a Native American. Although Johnson wears what appear to be thin-soled moccasins throughout most of the episode, he still looks about four inches shorter than the always-barefooted David Carradine, whom everyone seems to agree was never taller than 6'1" even in his prime. While Johnson is clearly not a midget, I'm now convinced he's always been closer to 5'9" than 5'10". 176 cm at best. Lmeister says on 20/Mar/05
Rob, maybe U should downgrade him I think picture with Cheech shows that he is around 5'9''. Mr. R says on 10/Mar/05
I saw Don in San Francisco when he was shooting Nash Bridges. He walked past me to go to his limo, and he was wearing a pair of suede boots with about a 2 inch heel. I too was surprised as I was lookin for this 5'11" guy. My eyewitness account: 5'9"! As for the Stone Cold Steve Austin pic, Stone Cold is probably about 6', not 6'2", and they always managed to use special camera angles to hide the height disparity. |
