glenn says on 11/Apr/08
"im aware of that danimal but he also allegedly said 5-11 to someone on the site.which i believe was told. dmeyer-that makes sense to me."
I think I remember that post. The poster said that he deviously asked Eddie "is your height a problem, are you too tall for some roles?" just to see the reaction. A funny look came over Eddie and he seized the opportunity: "yeah I'm 5-11" or something like that.

Love how Eddie made sure he he leaned towards the camera to distort the heights. Right away, a sign he isn't as tall as he'd like to be.
5'9.25" sounds pretty good to me. mr. blue says on 11/May/08
No way 5'11 for Eddie at every time! In Beverly Hills Cop 6' Judge Reinold towered over him. Eddie looked no more than 5'9 max. in that movie most of the time.
Can't give anything than a weak 5'10 peak height for eddie, maybe even a little shorter ... Danimal says on 11/Apr/08
Hmmmmm. Didn't know that Glenn. No way was Eddie ever 5'11". 5'11"-6'0" Arsenio Hall had a couple of inches on Eddie in the late 80's. Chris175 says on 11/Apr/08
his brother charlie is over 6-0 probably more like 6-1 strecthed out i think he could be 176-177? glenn says on 11/Apr/08
im aware of that danimal but he also allegedly said 5-11 to someone on the site.which i believe was told. dmeyer-that makes sense to me. Danimal says on 11/Apr/08
Actually Glenn, in RAW, he says: I'm 5'10" and a buck sixty-five. I can't kick anyone's ass". dmeyer says on 10/Apr/08
oen apeared 2 in tallerthan eddie for some reason glenn says on 10/Apr/08
owen wilson is 5-11.for sure.100 percent.murphy did have a funny lifts walk about him in this pics.id say 5-9 so smaller.5-10 is possible,but like i said i saw him recently looking 5-9.though he claims 5-11. TNT says on 7/Feb/08
i think eddie murphy is 5'8".
cuz there is a siene in a movie called i spy eddie was looking for his friend Owen Wilson and he was asking the peiople about if they had seen his friend and he says his friend discribtion that he mentioned in it that his friend is 5'9" and in that movie Owen Wilson looks an insh taller than eddie.
so i'll go for 5'8" for Eddie Murphy.
by the way in this site owen wilson is listed that Owen Wilson height: 5 ft 10.25 in (178 cm)!!! chris175 says on 18/Jan/08
that was good sid haha, i still think eddie is a solid 5-9 Sid says on 6/Jan/08
Click Here THIS IS THE FUNNIEST TALK ABOUT HEIGHT THIS IS ALSO ON THE STALLONE PAGE, THE BEST INFO OF MURPHYS AND STALLONES HEIGHT. FROM 2 MINS ONWARDS clark says on 3/Jan/08
The movie with Eddie Murphy and Steve Martin, there were some problems with the publicity shots because Martin appeared a lot taller than Eddie. There is no way eddie can be 5' 10 if Steve is a bit over 5'11. Eddie may be 5'10 with the best shoe lifts in the business. glenn says on 15/Dec/07
dress boots.you know what that could mean. joe says on 14/Dec/07
Hi Glenn. What kind of footwear was eddie wearing? Everytime i see eddie on screen i see him as 5'9 but in your pic he looks like he could be near 5'11 or even 6'0. dmeyer says on 11/Oct/07
if standing straight would be mush taller than glenn so 5'10.5 in lifts 5'9 without the shredder says on 11/Oct/07
Theres a few photos with Eddie Murphy , Jamie Fox and Will Smith ! .. Eddie murphy if anything is shorter then Fox who is 5'9 I say 5'8.5 min , 5'9 max for Eddie ! 5'10 is his height in shoes ! Adam Brennon says on 10/Oct/07
That's concluding, '5' 11"' comment was interesting. Can you elaborate? Stench says on 28/Sep/07
I'm exactly 5'8''1/4 (173.5 cm) through all day I suppose, don't really believe in morning/evenig stuff
I was always interested in height since I've nevere felt short or either tall.. My height is a tricky one though and I can easily look taller also because I'm skinny.
Nevertheless if I was 5'11 I swear I'd never be so curious about height Adam Brennon says on 27/Sep/07
How tall are you stench? Stench says on 25/Sep/07
I say, lucky who is a hair or someting over 5'9'' because they always surprises you: I mean you meet these people and you think that they might be 5'8'' but ...
There's a lot of cases like
Murphy
Depp
Stallone
Don Johnson
Kurt Russell
Spacey
Mel Gibson (though I still have doubts about him)
Leto (I'm not totally sure again)
They can wear low sneakers such as converse and still don't look so short
The only one that is in the 5'8'' range after years of researches is Tom (Cruise) runt says on 30/Jun/07
Jamie Foxx, Eddie and Will Smith. Foxx has a little help from the camera angle, Smith has it worst from the camera angle.
Click Here MD says on 29/Jun/07
Here he is with Russell Simmons, who's listed at 5'9", here, and is definitely no taller.

Eddie is not over 5'9", though I doubt much shorter than that. And, if you believe that Jamie Foxx is a legitimate 5'9" barefoot, he's also never taller than him, so I'm not exactly see how this quarter inch is hanging in. runt says on 29/Jun/07
Looked 1" shorter than Jamie Foxx at the 13th Annual Screen Actor's Guild Awards shown on I M D B Produce says on 27/Jun/07
he looks clearly taller than glenn. Cpt. Crunch says on 16/May/07
I was surprised when I finally saw him on the screen with Richard Pryor in "Harlem Nights" he was a full 1" shorter than the 5-10ish Pryor. I hope he wasn't wearing lifts! arman says on 6/Apr/07
i didnt see him before.but i think he is 176 or 177 cm actually.i'm 176 too,but when i say i am 180,nobody can find my real height Anonymous says on 28/Feb/07
compared to Glenn Eddy looks like he is 2.5-3" taller, most definetly Glenn looks MUCH shorter in height and proportions against eddy. Eddy must be 5'10.5" dmeyer says on 25/Feb/07
176 make sens for him Clive says on 19/Feb/07
That's not impossible he's 176cm barefoot, as Banderas, Murphy wears big lifts
Click Here Height Detective says on 10/Feb/07
I saw the behind the scenes of Beverly Cop 2 and in there was Brigitte nielsen talking about Eddie murphy being shorter than 5.10 and she said "Eddie says that im 6.2 and he is 5.10 , but in reality im 6 ft and he is 5.9 and a bit" , like 1.76 ,and then was a funny scene when the two were talking about this and murphy saying he was 5.10 to brigitte and she saying the opposite to him , that he was 1.76. sleuth says on 9/Jan/07
It doesn't make sense for a 5'9.5" male actor to claim 5'10". Has that ever happened in the history of Hollywood? Eddie Smurfy is a clear 5'8.5". dmeyer says on 3/Jan/07
could have been 5'10 morning like i thaught 5'11.75 for myself but i think he is closer to 176-7 range possibly 5'9 flat but weres lifts to look a hair over 5'10 Glenn says on 3/Jan/07
He said 5-10 in RAW. r jacob says on 15/Dec/06
I met Eddie in a niteclub in new york in 1985. I'm 5'10 and Eddie appeared to be 5'8 on the money. realheight 88 says on 3/Dec/06
I agree with Frank2.All the actors who say 5'11 they are 5'9" at the most(like orlando bloom) and the other actors who say that they are 5'10" they are 5'8" at the most(like jean claude van damme).That's my opinion which i believe is very true... Brad says on 18/Nov/06
5' 9" when my brother & I snuck on the Paramount lot in '86. Anonymous says on 4/Sep/06
Eddie Murphy does look 5'8 at the most next to the 5'9 Owen Wilson! He does wear lifts! Jimmy says on 27/Jun/06
Here is a video of Eddie Murphy and Mike Tyson. If Eddie is 5'10, how tall does that make Mike? 5'9 perhaps (natural height)?

muta says on 7/May/06
Eddie Murphy is a tough one. Some of the photos makes him look short but sometimes he looks taller. I know he says he is 5'10" Clive says on 5/May/06
TOTALLY agree with what you said Frank2 !!! Frank2 says on 4/May/06
Remove the half an inch and you have his true height. Eddie's no more than 5'9".
Remember the golden rule: If an actor admits to being 5'10" he's most likely shorter. This is especially true if he claims to be 5'11". Then of course the fellows who cliam to be six feet are mostly under. And then a few pinheads will say they're 6'1" when they're more likely to be around 5'11". then a few who claim to be 6'2" wear huge lifts and people buy it. In other words, throw out all the official heights and go by your eyes. Clive says on 2/May/06
During these last weeks I saw the film "Bowfinger" with Murphy and Steve Martin listed here as 182cm and like on Frank2's photos Murphy looks at least 5cm under on their pics of course... So 5'9.5 seemed to be a right estimation, didn't you? Anonymous says on 30/Apr/06
Looking at that picture of the Shirek cast that Clive sent. He's taller than 5'7" Mike Myers and Cameron Diaz but shorter than 5'9" Antonio Bandares. He's not tall! 5'10" is his phony height and actors want to make people think they're their goal height instead of what they actually are and not happy about it. All of those pictures give clear evidence that he's just trying to get away with wearing shoe lifts to be taller than Glen because he does not want to be listed as 5'8". Glen do you think he's really only 5'8"?
[Editor Rob: I saw another 48 hours last night....Nolte did have a noticeably good few inches, but I think he might have had slightly larger heels, hmm, I could see this guy being 5ft 9, looking more with lifts for sure] Frank2 says on 14/Apr/06
Bill Shatner was born with a hairpiece. Going way back to his appearance on a Twilight Zone episode he wore a full carpet as he did in the 1961 feature film Judgment at Nuremberg.
Burt started wearing hairpieces sometime after the 1972 film Deliverance. There were rumors that he tried an early form of hair transplantation as did Sinatra and the result looked so much like a hairbrush that he continued to wear toupes. Clive says on 14/Apr/06
Rob what are you waiting for to change Eddie's height ??? The last photo I saw with Prior don't let any doubt anymore !!! Terrence says on 13/Apr/06
This guy looks 5'9 Clive says on 13/Apr/06
Well said Frank2, well said !!! I totally agree with your "image's celebrities" concept which push them to increase their real height ! Frank2 says on 12/Apr/06
You're not fools (well maybe a few ar!). You're just trying to find the truth. If you only accept as fact what the celebs claim, you'll get nowhere fast. They almost all lie. I suppose it's human nature. How many driver's licenses have bogus heights on them? How many of you have given an optimistic height? In the case of celebrities, their image is everything so they must protect it at all costs. Horatio says on 12/Apr/06
God damn. As Frank has illustrated sometimes I wonder if we are all fools for posting here. I would downgrade Murphy to 5'9". Clive says on 12/Apr/06
Thanks for your comment Rob ! In that case there will be a consequence on Michael Jackson's height if we suppose Murphy is a 5'9 guy...
Continued on next episode or photos ;) Clive says on 11/Apr/06
So Rob what's your verdict about Frank2's photos ??? ;)
[Editor Rob: he could be a lift-wearer, Murphy...he can sure look 5ft 10 a helluva lot, I think he got special shoes for the film I-Spy...a 5ft 9 guy maybe] Clive says on 11/Apr/06
Great Frank2, that's right you're really the most reliable member!
Murphy looks 5'10 but his pics with wilson and Stallone made me very doubtful about the height written above (178cm) really Idon't know what to think... Frank2 says on 6/Apr/06
My favorite bogus height used in a movie script is in the classic Hitchcock film Saboteur when 5'10" Robert Cummings is announced on the radio as being 6'2". Clive says on 6/Apr/06
Yes man I noticed it too !! It's like Brad Pitt on Mr&Mrs Smith he was listed on his mini computer as 5'11. edu says on 5/Apr/06
in the movie " the nutty profesor" , in the laboratory , eddie murphy puts in a computer his height and is listed at 5.10
Clive says on 29/Mar/06
Frank2 : It is probably not you who are taller but the stars who are smaller ;)
As I said on Banderas' session it's easy for them to add 1 inch on their real height with the shoes they wear ! But as you had the chance to meet them face to face you could realize that there is a difference between what they PRETEND to measure and what they are in reality !!! So if it was up to me, I would take all the stars off 2cm to cancel "elevator shoes effects". Frank2 says on 27/Mar/06
How big were Murphy's shoes when you met him?
I'm beginning to think I'm taller than 5'11" since all these supposedly 5'10" guys are in fact much shorter when I meet them. Better go get measured fast! dan says on 25/Mar/06
i dont know , im 6'1 and when i met him he was mabey 3 or 4in shorter then me so i think hes at least 5'10 Clive says on 25/Mar/06
To my opinion Rob, even if Murphy doesn't stand up straight on the photo with Steve Martin, there is much more than 1.5inch between them ! So you may list list Murphy as 5ft9.5 and Michael Jackson as 5'9 to remain logic ! Frank2 says on 17/Mar/06
And I've seen Owen Wilson from about five feet away and if he's 5'11" then I'm 6'1". He has a nose that looks like it was smashed in at one time and was never properly fixed. Murphy is no more than 5'9". Probably closer to 5'8 1/2". He wears big shoes. Glenn says on 16/Mar/06
murphy looks 5-11 in those shrek pics.looked 5-10 when I saw him.but he could be very well 5-8.I know people that spent time with him and claimed this. andrew says on 16/Mar/06
Murphy said in the 1987 Eddie Murphy Raw, he said in one part of his act about fighting "i'm 5'10" 165 pounds i cant kick no ones ass". Glenn says on 16/Mar/06
Ive seen owen wilson look 5-11. Glenn says on 13/Mar/06
Nolte can look 6-3! But I heard he is 5-11 and wears lifts. Clive says on 13/Mar/06

Yes thanks ! Take a look at this and tell me what you think about. Clive says on 13/Mar/06
I have found a photo which shows he's slightly taller than Banderas,but I don't how to add it to my commentary, can you help me Rob ?
[Editor Rob: you just copy the url (at the top of the page where the photo is) and paste it into your comment (make sure there's a space before/after the url) then it automatically gets converted to a clickable link. Is that what you meant?]
Frank2 says on 12/Mar/06
I've seen him in the flesh. He's no more than 5'9" max. He was several inches shorter than 6' Nick Nolte. And don't tell me Nolte is 6'3" or I'll scream! Clive says on 7/Mar/06
Really, I have the impression that in the celebrityheights' sites we always have famous peoples' heights with their shoes ! So in that case we can take off around 2cm to each celebrityheight !
Concerning Murphy, with all has been said, he may be a 176 or 177cm man ! Frank2 says on 27/Feb/06
Eddie is not 5'10" but is about 5'8 1/2". He usually wears lifts. phil says on 21/Feb/06
I work part-time as an actor and my agent got a call one day asking if I could be his double for one day. I wasn't available unfortunately, but I'm 5'9 1/2" on the nose, so 5'9" or 5'10" would clearly be right. Glenn says on 20/Jan/06
he looked 5-10.but he is known to be a lift wearing 5-8. Height Tracker says on 16/Jan/06
Hey guys; how can we even be so sure that Glenn is really the 5'8" he claims? He might be an inch shorter, which would skew all of his celebrity sightings in their favor.
[Editor Rob: maybe I'll hop on a flight to NY, track Glenn down and measure him to within a mm ;)] CoolJ says on 16/Jan/06
Pic with Glenn makes Eddie look 5'10.. You can tell that his head, frame looks like a naturally taller person's would.. unlike Tom Cruise's dmeyer says on 16/Jan/06
easily 5'10 in this pic CelebHeights Editor says on 16/Jan/06
Pic added with Glenn - who says he looks 5ft 10 in person. Although footwear, you never know with Eddie... dmeyer says on 10/Nov/05
i am sure he is not over 178 but he looks over 5'10 compare to 6'4 rapaport in metro and he does look taller than 5'9 de niro 178 is a good guess but he looks way shorter than wilson in i spy Tubbs says on 14/Oct/05
Murphy claimed to be 5'10 on one of his stand up videos, i think it was on raw filmed in 1987. DP says on 11/Oct/05
I'm on the agreement with JS that Murphy's barely scraping by at 5'9". He's my height and does the same thing that I do....wears lifts. I can spot those guys wearing lifts because I'M ONE OF THEM! Anonymous says on 27/Sep/05
If you watch Beverly hills cop 2, you see the scene outside the playboy mansion, chris rock is 5"11, and him and murphy seem the same height. mcfan says on 18/Jul/05
I always thought Eddie looked 5'9-5'9.5, not 5'10. GPM says on 12/Jul/05
He's shorter than Owen Wilson, and Wilson claims to be 5'9". Did you see them in that movie they did together? British Guy says on 4/Jun/05
Eddie Murphy...
For Some Reason I Cannot Convince Myself He Is 5ft 10in... Anonymous says on 6/May/05
5'10 with lifts but actually pushing 5'9 Big Dave says on 14/Apr/05
I agree with J. Eddie also looked about 2 inches taller than Martin Lawrence in that film, which would make him 5'9. I would say 5'10 is a bit of an embelishment. J. says on 16/Mar/05
Eddie's 5'9" without shoes. Watch Boomerang. There's a scene of him barefoot with Halle Berry. He's easily 3 inches taller. So 5'10" is his height with shoes on. In that photo below with Singleton and Cube, he's 1 inch taller than Cube and exactly 3 inches bigger than Singelton. Don't let the high top fade fool you with that pic! :-) Ricardo says on 19/Feb/05
Eddie Murphy is 5'8" |
