I saw him at Cirque Du Soleil and was surprised at how tall he was. He's an easy 5'11.

He is only about 5'6 1/2". I've seen him several times in person at Equinox.

You were either dreaming or you saw someone that looks like him. Walsh is 175-176cm.
Brent says on 16/Oct/09
5'9!! I just saw "the step father" and he was about 1/2 inch taller than the 5'8.5 Penn Badgley.

The actor who plays Matt is 5'10 it appears and he's a bit taller than Walsh. Walsh is 5'9 1/2 max to me now looking at more of him on Nip/Tuck. Joely Richardson is 5'9.5-5'10.
bam says on 25/Feb/09
lol, everyone here insists 5'9. He doesn't look a full 5'10 near mcmahon, although its possible...
Alex says on 4/Nov/08
James, Julian has 4-5 inches on Walsh. Only certain angles or whatever can make the difference shorter. Julian is 187-188cm while Walsh is 176cm.
Ange says on 9/Sep/08
He seems 5'9 to me. He has the look and build of a dude that's 5'9 but can look taller since he's slimmed down quite a bit from before. Check out the movie "Nobody's Fool" with him, Bruce Willis and Paul Newman. They all seemed to be in that range. He didn't look 5'10 then either.

5'9.05 at his best..he cant be 5'10
Alex says on 5/Aug/08
Stiffelio, yea thats what I meant as well. Different times the height difference will be greater or smaller. They make certain shots where they look closer in height while they're 4-5 inches apart. I think McMahon is at least 6'1 1/2 if not 6'2. Puts Walsh between 5'9 and 5'10.
Leung says on 4/Aug/08
Stiffelio is right on the money, there is at least 4” to 5” difference between Walsh and McMahon. Look up photos from Red Carpet or Premieres of the two together and you will see that MacMahon towers over Walsh. I think the directors of the show generally avoid filming scenes which shows the true height difference between the two because it can appear quite odd having McMahon tower over Walsh.

MaMahon makes a lot of guys look short.
Stiffelio says on 4/Aug/08
Alex, I'm a fan of the Nip/Tuck show and of Dylan Walsh in particulat. I'm actually watching the re-runs these days. There's at least a 4" height difference between Julian McMahon and Dylan, if not 5". Close-up takes or near angles are misleading. If you watch scenes where the two guys are walking side by side and the camera takes them at a certain distance you'll notice the difference. A case in point is a scene in season 2 at the airport and the hotel corridor when the two doctors go to New York to operate on the siamese women. Dylan looks like a midget there and there are many other examples. Also check the several pictures taken at season premiere parties. Dylan's height is misleading because he's so slim and therefore looks taller, but I believe he is no taller than 5'9". Also watch Congo if you have a chance. He was much younger there, had longish curly hair and a stockier build, and you'll notice how short he looks. Terrific actor btw.!!
Alex says on 3/Aug/08
How many inches do you guys really see between Julian and Dylan? I see sometimes as low as 2-3 then sometimes at least 4 inches. I think certain camera angles do that or Dylan is wearing lifts during certain scenes.
Alex says on 21/Jul/08
Today I was watching Nip Tuck on DVD and he was slightly shorter than John Hensley who is listed at 5'10.
sam says on 22/Jun/08
this is pushing it. looks 5'9, I always thought...
JD says on 15/Feb/08
5'9.5-5'10 tops for Dylan. 5'10 for Joely Richardson and 6'1.5, maybe a weak 6'2 for Julian McMahon.
Alex says on 16/Jan/08
6'1.5 for Julian and 5'9.5 for Dylan seems right.
JD says on 15/Jan/08
Julian is 6'1.5.
Alex says on 14/Jan/08
Julian is a solid 6'1 and he was a good few inches taller than Dylan. Dylan is 5'9 but can probably come across taller.
JD says on 13/Jan/08
Joely Richardson is 5'10. Walsh is 5'9.5.
chris175 says on 5/Jan/08
i agree viper, around 5-9, possibly a bit taller
Steven says on 4/Jan/08
Yeah, I really don't see Dylan as being 5'10.5''. I mean, he's about the same height (flat footed) as Joely Richardson, who's listed as 5'9.5".
Alex says on 1/Dec/07
McMahon does look to have between 4 and 5 inches on Walsh. The shorest I can buy Julian at his 6'1 but likely is a bit more.
Leung says on 22/Aug/07
He has always looked 5'9" to me, but 5'10" isn't out of the question
Stiffelio says on 20/Aug/07
Rob, to answer your questions: No to the first and Yes to the second. Now that you bring up Congo, the younger Walsh had a heavier build at that time and seemed even shorter than the current Nip/Tuck star.
Stiffelio says on 18/Aug/07
Heq, please have a look at the picture links posted by MD below. There's a clear 4 to 5 inches height difference between McMahon and Walsh. And now that they are questioning McMahon's height I'm even wondering if Walsh is 5'9" or even shorter.

[Editor Rob: did he have a good 3 inches over linney in congo and was he 3 inches shorter than ernie hudson?]
heq says on 17/Aug/07
All I know is that Dylan Walsh only appears to be 2 inches shorter than tall Macmahon on nip/tuck. I'd say he's AT LEAST 5"10 (if macmahon is really 6"1.5)
Thomas says on 30/Apr/07
Thanks MD. This seems pretty clear. The difference is really really obvious. I rank him 5-9.. no way he is taller
Stiffelio says on 29/Apr/07
The height difference in these still pictures is never less than 4in but in most cases it looks like 5in or more. The same happens in Nip Tuck especially in full body shots (i.e the two guys standing or walking side by side). IMO McMahon is 6ft 2in and Walsh is 5ft 9 1/2in (max) and most probably just 5ft 9in.
MD says on 28/Apr/07
Rob, what do you think the difference is between Julian and Dylan in these photos, out of curiosity?

[Editor Rob: in the second one about 4.]
MD says on 25/Apr/07
With Julian McMahon who's listed at 6'-2.25":

Bill, Roma Maffia is leaning back against a table or almost sitting on it in that picture of the three together, plus Dylan is mor in the foreground than Julian. In long pane or full body shots it is clear that Dylan is way shorter than Julian, fairly shorter than Roma and even a bit shorter than Joely. There are far too many examples if you watch any Nip/Tuck episode. Dylan Walsh is between 5'9" and 5' 9 1/2".
Anonymous says on 22/Oct/06
Bill, watch the Season 2 finale of Nip/tuck when the three of them are walking through the airport. Maffia is taller than Walsh.
Joe says on 2/Oct/06
There's no way Walsh is 5'10. He has to be 5'8.5-5'9 max. There is a scene in the season 2 finale where him, Roma Maffia and Macmahon are walking through the airport together and Maffia who is listed at 5'10 is at least an inch taller. I would go 5'8.5 for Walsh.
MD says on 28/Jul/06
Rob, take another look at this one.
Stiffelio says on 27/Jul/06
If McMahon is only 6'1 1/2", then Walsh is 5'9 1/2" maybe only 5'9" tops.
Stiffelio says on 22/May/06
Check Click Here There's zillions of pictures of Walsh, MacMahon and Richardson. Dylan looks more like 5in shorter than McMahon, who btw is only 6ft 2". He's also about the same height as, or shorter than, Joely who's 5'9". In We weere Soldiers he looked just barely taller than Mel Gibson. Conclusion: I insist on him being 5'9.5" barefoot. Have Frank2 and/or Glen met this guy?
GW says on 16/Mar/06
Met him at our magazine's anniversary party. Stood right next to him. We wore the same shoes. He's about 5'11". Definitely taller than Joely though.
Stiffelio says on 7/Jan/06
Luxe, many times it's the other way around: i.e. Joely taller than Dylan! It depends on the camera angle and relative shot range. This more evident in stil pictures of the two together (and also next to Juian McMahon). Try browsing Getty images. I stick with my guess that Walsh is no taller than 5ft 9.5".
Luxe says on 7/Jan/06
look closer where Joely and Walsh are side by side. Walsh has about an inch and a half to two on Joely
Adeli says on 30/Oct/05
Walsh looks shorter, than his tv- wife Joely Richardson in -Nip 'n Tuck-, but looks a bit taller than Mel Gibson in -We Were Soldiers-. In my opinion Joely Richardson is 178cm(5'10), Walsh 176cm(5'9.25)and Gibson 175cm(5'9).. something in those lines.
Issheuhboy says on 5/Jul/05
Everyone knows the "what would my name be if I were a porn star" game, now, what would my height be if I were a Hollywood actor/wrestler? +2inches for actor, +4inches for wrestler. Coming soon to a weirdly-shod personality near you!
Mr. R says on 1/Jul/05
Rob, that is not Eric Dickerson. He is the other Black guy in the second picture wearing glasses.
