In Miami Vice he was taller than Tubbs and Don Johnson. Probably was 5'9" when he was young. In BG he looked at least 5'8.5" standing next to other actors.

Ed never looks short; he looks average 5-8"-5'9".

He was at San diego comic con signing autographs. He stood up and i was standing right next to him. I'm around 5'7 and he was a little taller than me. Now, i didn't pay attention to the shoes he was wearing but i'll say he looked 5'8.75. I was surprised by how short he was though.

Met him at Dragon*con in 2008. I'd say 5'7 for sure, though I WAS wearing 4" heels. Either way, he's quite small, and I think 5'8.75 is pushing it.

He looks taller...but if you meet him in person you can see that he isn't really that tall...in BSG he just seemed like it because of the impossing nature of the character he played...I am taller than him...it was pretty cool.

Rob: On Bsg is looks always a little taller than Bamber. Do you agree??

I remember a scene in which EJO had to confront guards in the new BSG, and he was staring up at them with such compelling intensity that he made himself look taller. He had dialogue about growing up as a small kid, too. I doubt he's more than 5'7".

He's 2" shorter than a 5' 9" Carlos Santana side by side. He's 5' 7". Wore big heels on Miami Vice.

[Editor Rob: this guy wasn't shorter than me unless he was adopting poor posture which he can do. And I saw him numerous times over a weekend, and standing beside people I know.]

I stand by my eyewitness account of 5-7 for Eddie.

[Editor Rob: I have a photo with Eddie and seen him several times against a friend aswell. There's very little chance he's below 5ft 8. 5ft 8.5 when standing properly is my estimate.]

He is definitely 5'9" I stood right next to him in line on a flight to Burbank from Sacramento and spoke with him in 2006. He is a very warm and genuine person. I have always been a fan of his. I am exactly 5' 11" 1/2 and he actually seemed taller to me in person than in films. He is defintely average height and not a short person compared with the other people in line.

I'd have agreed with 5'8 he just looks it and this show is notoriously short on the male side whilst tall on the female side. However take a look at this picture with him and Morgan freeman where he looks only 4-5 inches shorter...

Could genuinely be a 5'9 guy, then again mabe he's a lifts man.

i'm a huge fan of bsg and watch it all the time. he has atleast 1 inch on jamie bamber!
Mr. R says on 17/Mar/05
Sorry, but I saw him at the LA Airport. He was on the same flight as my mother going to Baltimore. Eddy is no more than 5'7". Even a lot of the teenagers were stunned at how short he was. My eyewitness account says 5'7".
