Edward Furlong is 5'5" and Norton had easily 5-6 inches on him.
Steven says on 9/Mar/10
I don't know. In American History X, that kid who played Norton's younger brother was at MOST 5'7". Norton only looked a few inches taller when they were standing right next to each other.

brad had footwear advantage over norton

In Fight Club when Brad Pitt and Edward Norton walked out of the bar for the first time, Edward is about an inch shorter that brad Pitt. Brad is placed anyway between 5'10 - 6'0( likely 5'11). so I think Edward Norton is about 5'10ish

Rob was Norton originally listed as 6ft 0.75?

[Editor Rob: I think maybe he started out at 185cm]
JJ says on 1/Feb/10
Pitt rarely leaves the house without elevator shoes or lifts Agatha, so he can easily reach 6'1 in his customs. If Norton looks as tall as Pitt in pictures that means he's 6 feet tall.
Agatha says on 30/Dec/09
he is almost the same height as Brad Pitt. just look at pictures of them together. There is no way Pitt reaches 6 feet so I am guessing Norton is 5'10"-5'11" tops.

Clay, I really don't think you know what 30 pounds of muscle looks like.
dmeyer says on 25/Dec/09
i remember you had a 6 ft 0.75 185 cm listing that was way off is posture can make him look in the 5 ft 10 club
Source says on 23/Dec/09
Soild 6ft.
Aleks says on 21/Dec/09
I think he's 5'11˝" but rounds up to 6'.
DMEYER says on 20/Dec/09
EVEN I THAUGHT HE LOOKED NEARER 5 FT 11 BUT THIS GUY LOOKS TALLER ON GETTY IMAGES THAN HE LOOKS IN MOVIES WITH PROPER POSTURE HE DOES LOOK A 183 MEN BUT IN MOVIES CAN LOOK AS SHORT AS 5 FT 10.5
Oleg says on 18/Dec/09
I think this guy will never lie about his height, don't know why but it seems to me he doesn't care about it at all. So he has no reasons to lie and says the truth - 6ft.
Hugh 191cm says on 6/Dec/09
Solid 6ft.
TRS says on 6/Dec/09
He seemed , in Keeping the Faith , 5" taller then Ben Stiller who is about 5'6.5" He seemed to be 2" taller then Jenna Elfman who is around 5 foot 10 so i'd say 6'0" is good.
Source says on 3/Dec/09
6feet seems spot on. He's got the same posture as my best fried who's 6feet tall. And in both Fight Club and American History X he seems about 6feet.
JoannadeNorton says on 22/Oct/09
Who cares about Norton´s height! He can´t look better, it would be a sin
JoannadeNorton
Anonymous says on 10/Oct/09
would be 6'1 with good posture, but he doesn't really care about looking really tall.
DejaVu says on 4/Oct/09
Yeah about time he is downgraded.
shemp says on 23/Sep/09
At about 3:38 in this interview on The Daily Show Click Here he says "I'm six feet tall".

[Editor Rob: good find I will put this at the top.]
Hugh 191cm says on 14/Sep/09
Norton could look 6ft1 in American History X.
TELLEM says on 8/Sep/09
ok says on 7/Sep/09
brad is taller than edward in fight club . but he is 180 what does it mean

lol. no hes not, pitt, with his posture, he looked the same height/ shorter than a slouching edward norton
ok says on 7/Sep/09

Clay says on 1/Sep/09
Ted, Pitt wears lifts and sometimes elevator shoes.
Clay says on 1/Sep/09
Clay(the other one). Pitt is known wearer of huge lifts and elevator shoes, with those he looks 5'11 which is the height he claims and is listed at by his agency but barefoot he is probably 5'10 at the most.
Clay says on 1/Sep/09
ahleks, what are you talking about ? In American history X he was ripped, he had to gain 30 pounds of muscle for the role. You must be thinking of Fight club.
alexiel says on 31/Aug/09
pitt is tallet than him,so he must be under 180cm
Jerrin says on 8/Aug/09
He looks not more than 5'10
Ahleks says on 1/Aug/09
Looked very tall in American History X but I think it's only because he was rake thin.
Doug says on 30/Jul/09
Hugh 190cm says on 24/May/09
Can look 6ft2 in dress shoes.

Norton has never looked 6'2" in his life. He doesn't even look over 6' to me.
Clay says on 23/Jul/09
Brad Pitt 5'9....now thats comedy gold.
hi says on 12/Jul/09
norton is 5-11. his much-used comparison, brad pitt, is 5-9. barefoot heights.
Ted says on 8/Jul/09
Check this out for all this who think Brad Pitt is Short. You have Norton looking shorter than Pitt. Click Here
Dominic says on 25/Jun/09
It is amazing how short this guy looks from his slouching. I always thought he was the same height as Damon (5'10). There is a scene in Rounders with Matt Damon where they look at each other face to face. Norton is nearly 2 inches taller but not quite. I give him 182cms or 5ft11.5
paddy says on 22/Jun/09
Guys, take a look at this(!!!):
Click Here
It's amazing how much dwarfed they are by Tim Robbins!!!!!!
PS I see the angle of the camera, nevertheless, the difference is huge.
For sure Norton is below 6'1 mark.
DejaVu says on 20/Jun/09
This guy really has bad posture. He looks shorter than his listed height for 90% of the time.
dman says on 17/Jun/09
6 feet to 6'1/2"
Anonymous says on 15/Jun/09
I think he was 6'1 but is 5'11.5 or 5'11.75 tops now
Hugh 190cm says on 8/Jun/09
Possibly a weak 6ft1 with good posture. This guy did look the same height as Brad Pitt when they presented at the MTV movie awards.
El says on 6/Jun/09
hey guys Masha Sharapova's 187cms (may be 188 now)that's an exact info :D um.. Ed's shorter..

Paddy Federer's 185 cms )and he's a lil bit shorter than Masha lol
sidewinder says on 28/May/09
He was a little shorter than avery brooks (185 cm.) in american history X so I think just 6 feet is accurate.
Hugh 190cm says on 24/May/09
Can look 6ft2 in dress shoes.
Anonymous says on 22/Apr/09
he looks as tall as 185cm Ryan gosling.
Clay says on 9/Apr/09
Pitt is in lifts there and closer to the camera. Norton is legitimately 6'0.5.
JJ says on 8/Apr/09
This guy is a legit 6'1. He doesn't care about his appearance much so he always bends his knees and slouches. He's definitely tall.
Doug says on 7/Apr/09
Funny thing is I always thought Pitt looked 2 inches taller than Norton in Fight Club! I think he was wearing lifts in those Tyler Durden boots with the red leather jacket as they looked pretty clumpy. Didn't see them barefoot, apparently Norton had 1.5 inches on Pitt barefoot so this is about right, don't know how Pitt often manages to look 2 inches taller though.
Rusty says on 7/Apr/09
Youre wrong sodapop, he is 6'0" and 155 pounds.
sodapop says on 29/Mar/09
I've seen Fight Club alot and Edward Norton is about 5'9", Brad is about 5'10", People saying Edward is 6 feet are wrong. With boots or lifts he can look close to 6 feet yes
MaxB says on 27/Mar/09
Alex, it's obvious this picture is bad and you cannot judge height by that. Pitt is closer to the camera and is standing on something, and on top of that the photo is tilted about 2 degrees in Pitt's favour.
bam says on 11/Mar/09
he was over 2 inches taller than richard gere, who is 5'10. (and could have been/claimed 5'10.5)
Anonymous says on 6/Mar/09
maybe ed wasn't standing straight??
Alex says on 5/Mar/09
I don't think Ed Norton is this tall. This is a picture of Brad Pitt and Ed Norton. Pitt is listed as 5'11 and he looks to be at least a couple inches taller than Norton here: Click Here
Paddy says on 25/Feb/09
Sharapova is 6'2''. That's very true. She can be easily taller than Federer.
No way is E. Norton taller than her.
tony t. says on 18/Feb/09
My bad. I forgot to add that Tony Siragusa is listed as 6'3.
Rusty says on 18/Feb/09
He has the same physique as me. Im 6'3" and 170 pounds at age 40, which is only a few pounds more than when I stopped growing. But yeah I don't think he is 6'1" Certainly a legit 6 footer though.
Jake says on 17/Feb/09
Edward Norton appears shorter than 5'11 Brad Pitt in Fight Club.
Ed(1) says on 13/Feb/09
Norton looked a good 2-3 inches shorter then Jon Voight(6ft2.5), and around 2 inches taller then Colin Farrell in Pride and Glory. Farrell wore some seriously thick cop boots in the movie, and Norton's weren't exactly small heeled either. Voight had on casual/dress shoes the entire time and was still considerably taller then them. The only one that had Voight was Noah Emmerich(actor from Cop Land, Frequency, and Little Children) who doesn't have a page here, but was a good 1-2" taller then Voight.

I think Rob has all these actors pretty much spot on!
tony t. says on 11/Feb/09
Why then does he look 3.5 - 4 inches shorter than former NFL star Tony Siragusa in the movie 25th hour?
lexi says on 9/Feb/09
For some odd reason, I always thought he was more like in the 5'9 to 5'10 range. Thinking about it now, he does seem to have bad posture. Looks 6'1 when standing staight. Love him as an actor.
Mr. R. says on 5/Feb/09
Rob has him perfectly. He was a little taller than me. Between 6' and 6-1.
Rusty says on 4/Feb/09
Hes not at all like most celebrities. I dont think he wears lifts and doesnt really care to stand up fully straight and appear as tall as possible. He just really doesnt care what people think of his height.
Eddie says on 19/Jan/09
Norton usually looks 5ft 10 1/2 because of bad posture. But I think 6 ft is right.
Hugh says on 16/Jan/09
I wouldn't go lower than 6ft for this guy. 6ft1 is a possibility though.
mile says on 30/Dec/08
Edward Norton is 6'1& Brad Pitt is 5'11
mile says on 30/Dec/08
Edward Norton is 6'1& Brad Pitt is 5'11
Alex says on 14/Dec/08
I dont have one. I was just saying she does give a taller impression then he does looking at them.
miser says on 12/Dec/08
If Norton is really 184cm then he would be just slightly taller. I think they could appear to be roughly the same height in a picture. Why have you got a picture of them?
Alex says on 11/Dec/08
Miser, you think Maria Sharapova is 5'11-6'0 so you'd think Norton would be taller than her? I would think she'd be taller than him by a bit.

He broke his back when he was shooting The Painted Veil. It had nothing to do with his height.
Theo says on 26/Nov/08
He broke he his back recently will he have lost height?
Josh says on 23/Nov/08
He looks 5'11.5 but could be 6'0.
Neil says on 30/Oct/08
to MD
about his weight, there is some old data, but that is what I talked about.
Click Here
Complex says on 28/Oct/08
Maybe he's 6'0 even but he never goes under 6 foot..I think his lising is pretty accurate. If he had Pitt's posture, he'd look an easy 6'1!
miser says on 28/Oct/08
Looks 6-1 to me.
Rachel says on 23/Oct/08
Wow, I could have sworn he was a lot shorter than that. Guess that shows how much I know.
Neil says on 22/Oct/08
to MD: just some file from internet.
Chazz says on 19/Oct/08
Wow. I've always seemed to think he was shorter than 6 feet. He doesn't look it at all.
Mark says on 18/Oct/08
Edward Norton was just on Conan O'brien and when standing in front of Conans desk shaking hands they looked to be almost the same height and it Edward Norton was wearing normal dress shoes. Conan is 6'4" so you do the math! There's no way he's under 6'. I'm not really sure why it's such a mystery.
Hugh says on 16/Oct/08
I don't see Ed being less than 6ft. If anything he's closer to 6ft1. In The Italian Job he looked about an inch shorter than Donald Sutherland.
MD says on 12/Oct/08
MD, his base weight couldn't be lower than his Fight Club weight. He has said his Fight Club weight was a 20 lb weight loss.

Neil, what file are you talking about?
Sam says on 12/Oct/08
to Ed(1): Norton said he was thinnest in Fight Club from his teenage, that is to say, he was thinner than his normal state.
And he is above 6ft.
Ed(1) says on 11/Oct/08
My estimate MD is 180-185lbs for American History X, and 160-165 lbs for Fight Club. I'm guessing his base weight is around 150-155lbs at 5ft11.5-6ft. The guys has just got a naturally thin physique.
Neil says on 11/Oct/08
Norton and Harrison Ford stood together
Click Here

to MD: it says in his file that Norton weighs 70 kgs
MD says on 10/Oct/08
Hey, does anyone know how much Ed weighed in both American History X and Fight Club? I know he gained 30 lbs for the former, and dropped 20 lbs for the latter, but can't find what his base weight is/was.
adam says on 23/Sep/08
I think Rob has him exactly right. A little over six feet sounds correct for him. He looked pretty tall in Fight Club. Also he looked very slim in that movie. Very small-boned man, look at his shoulders in that movie.

5'11.5 minimum, 6'0.5 max.
Rick says on 14/Sep/08
Guys seriously why are there people here claiming edward is 5'11 you all know that's not true ? There is NO way this guy is anything under 6 foot , i even suspect he is 6'1. And about the skinny part, he was not skinny in american history x, he was muscular. And he still looked tall. I am 6'1 myself , my brother is 6'1 and my father is 6'025. Believe me this guy is at least '6,025'

I'm sure he is no less than 184cm . very stong 184
Emilie says on 22/Aug/08
It's difficult to tell, I always thought he was around 6ft 1, although I guess with him being skinny, he might just look taller.
steven says on 18/Aug/08
i believe that norton is closer to 6'1"
U. says on 6/Aug/08
yeah he lookks dead even on 6. he was standing next to a 5'4 guy. probably 6.
Anthony Hopkins says on 3/Aug/08
Ahh great friend of mine, yes he is six foot
mikec says on 28/Jul/08
this guy looks tall-ish in rounders and american history x. i'd say he's like 6'0.5 but has a really bad posture. he also looked like 2 inches taller than matt damon in rounders AND matt was wearing boots.
Ed(1) says on 26/Jul/08
5ft11.5-6ft tops for Norton! In my opinion The 6ft1 claim is his height in shoes, and depending on the footwear maybe a bit less. His normal physique which is on the skinny side, adds to the illusion of him being taller.
Lebensdorf says on 26/Jul/08
Ed Norton looks like he is maybe six feet even or five eleven and a half. He doesn't give me the impression of a guy as tall as six foot one, which is what he claims he is.
Maria says on 16/Jul/08
A guy at work looks a lot like Edward, and he´s Irish... :-)
clark says on 14/Jul/08
...well dits....they are both Irish!!!
dits says on 12/Jul/08
edward norton and john cusack..both these guys look way shorter than they are.and they have a facial similarity too.
This plus says on 5/Jul/08
i think edward closer to 6'1"
DejaVu says on 29/Jun/08
IF he is only 5ft11 how can he look the same height as liv tyler in heels?
Maria says on 25/Jun/08
From his own words he´s 6 ft.

Mr X says on 20/Jun/08
Brad Pitt is shorter than him,he looks taller in some photos because of his lifts.
I would say 6'0.25 for Norton is accurate,if stretched could be closer to 6'0.75 but not more....
thekiddd says on 19/Jun/08
I think he is tall. I just think he is exactly 6 feet.
Ali says on 18/Jun/08
Short people must love this site because they can say whatever they want. Ed is clearly taller than the average.
Robbie H says on 18/Jun/08
yeah id say 6'1 for Nortan
Brah says on 18/Jun/08
In the new Hulk, he is easily taller than Liv Tyler. When she was wearing heels, they were about the same height.
thekiddd says on 17/Jun/08
I'm gonna say exactly 6feet.
MzM says on 15/Jun/08
Is this debate still on? Well, let's see. Here's a casual pic of Ed and Liev Schreiber, who is 6'3" (I've met him, he is definitely tall). You can see that they're almost shoulder-to-shoulder, with Ed being only slightly shorter. I think this makes his 6 - 6'1" height more likely.

Click Here
thekiddd says on 15/Jun/08
I'm Beginning to doubt he is anything more than 6.
jacques says on 13/Jun/08
to zuma

i'm about 5'8 and a half. my brother is like 5'11.
in some pictures i only look about half an inch shorter.

sometimes picture, films lie. you got to see them in real life to really get the height.
woot woot says on 10/Jun/08
zuma: during rounders, both matt damon and edward norton wore boots in that movie. brad pitt wears lifts. so he is easily 6 feet to 6'0.25 even
Edward fan says on 31/May/08
I think Edward looked amazing in American History x, he realy has a nice tall build. I think he has the perfect height for a man. about 1.85 6'1 . I am at this moment 1.80 5'11 tall but I'm still growing I hope to become his height, my body build is simmalair to his to. Crossing thumbs :)
April voncannon says on 30/May/08
it would not matter if edward was 6 foot or 5 to me he's great as he is..if i were famous instead of a detective an a mother..i would take my 29 year old self to him and not care either way.find something else wrong with him.you cant
Explodius says on 27/May/08
Slouches ALOT. I think if he improved his posture he would problay be 6'1".

thekiddd says on 14/May/08
Probably a full 6 feet.
clark says on 5/May/08
I don't know what happened to my previous posting, but Ed Norton is 6'1".
Clark says on 4/May/08
Norton is born with a long physique "look" with a long torso, long arms, etc. Very similar to body types like Rick Springfield, Keanu Reeves,David Caruso, Pierce Brosnan, Jim Carrey. You find this type of build in many people of Anglo or Celtic decent. I do believe Mr. Norton is very close to 6'1" and I am sure as the movie release comes closer, we will see him on many late night shows promoting the film. If he would stop slouching we should upgrade his height a bit.
Anonymous says on 30/Apr/08
nope, Norton is 6 foot 1 and change (barefoot). he is what some call a "strong" 6 foot 1. check pics with freddy prinze jr. check pics with ashton kutcher. this site won't let me post a tab, it tells me to go to a site called tiny url, and i don't have time.
artha5 says on 25/Mar/08
Well, he did seemed taller than Ralph Fiennes in Red Dragon, so i'm asuming he's between 1.82 - 1.84
Leung says on 24/Mar/08
D,
yes Fight Club is terrible movie to gauge height. With regards to Meatloaf they had to make him look taller and fatter to fit the description of the character Bob.
Quote from Click Here
“Meat Loaf, who plays Bob, a character that has "bitch tits", wore a 90-pound fat harness that gave him large breasts for the role. He also wore 8-inch lifts in his scenes with Norton, being shorter than the lead actor.”
D says on 24/Mar/08
Alright, I'm gonna start by saying that Fight Club the single worst movie to judge height on; okay to those who say "MeatLoaf was taller than Ed" look at the scene where bob is on the porch, when the narrator goes up to him you can see he's at least 2-3 inches taller, MeatLoaf is 5'9-5'10, Ed is 5'11-6'0.
Leung says on 5/Mar/08
Norton is a bonafide six footer. However he has got worst posture amongst Hollywood leading men. Norton doesn’t even straighten up for magazine photo shoots. If I saw him in person I would probably say to him “shoulders back and head up”
Anonymous says on 3/Mar/08
He looked tall in American History X, but everyone seemed to dwarf him in Fight Club. I'd put him at 5'10.75" (180cm), at the most 5'11.25" (181cm)
Johnny Boy says on 19/Feb/08
If you look at Norton and Gere in one court seen during Primal Fear, there is a straight medium shot of the two standing side by side - both of their shoulders are almost level except Norton has a bird-like neck which is far longer than Gere's. This makes an extra two inches at least on Gere. I think that is why Norton is downgraded from a 6' - 6'1 guy because his build is very slight and unappealing - he is lankier around the neck than the legs or torso.
Alex says on 11/Feb/08
He looks in the 5'11-6'0 range.
razz says on 8/Feb/08
ok so either ed norton is around 5'9 - 5'10 or salmas 5'5! the latter is so not possible!

selva says on 5/Feb/08
guys
do not compare ed to brad
because, obviously, brad wears shoes with heels to gain height
but definitly ed is 6 feet tall
i mean, the guy himself said he's 6 feet tall in an interview
in AHX when he was running on the street behind his car, bare feet
look how tall he looked
and in the illusionist premiere with jessica biel, who's 170 cm, he looke atleast 10 cm above her (and she was wearing heels)
so get over it
he is tall, and that's it
dmeyer says on 13/Jan/08
ms crababel pics even considering posture and angles pitt is still 2 in taller than norton in those pics pitt dosnt apear over 184 cm in lifts like 186 187 with shoes on so that means ed is 5'10.5 being generous
Gabriel says on 12/Jan/08
WTF?? Pitt must be wearing Huge lifts..no way pitt is taller than norton..
Caesar says on 7/Jan/08
This is one of the few guys I would downgrade, in his case to at least under 6'0. Interesting pictures from Ms. Crababel: obviously Pitt is closer to the camera and there has to be a big pavement advantage. In my view, Pitt is 5'11 and Norton 5'11.5, maybe 6'0 on a good day. Among others, I would suggest downgrading him and of course, Ryan Seacrest.
Anonymous says on 7/Jan/08
wow looks 1.5 -2 inches under Pitt there.

His Mugshot in American History X said he was 6-foot even.

he def looks this height in the illusionist! :)
Millais says on 29/Nov/07
I think he's rather tall. Probably over 180.
And anyway, who cares how tall he is...:-)
He's cute, funny, nice as a person and an INCREDIBLE actor!
selva says on 23/Nov/07
edward is definetely 184 cm
he can't be shorter than that
do you remember (primal fear) movie with richard gere?
he was taller than richard (and richard is 178 cm)

It's very possible to see him as 5'9" or 5'10" since he really does have utterly horrendous posture, but I can also clearly see him as the 6' he claims, especially when he's not alongside someone like Pitt whom obviously stuffs his shoes and just has to achieve that 6'+ (although it's crazy since he's obviously still quite tall at around 5'10"-11" but whatev). I also think that because he is so tiny (as in, oober thin) people also may mistake his height when they see him in person because his frame is so small, along with his hunched over disposition, rather than the opposite. B/c I don't think he has some sort of issue over his height or anything. If anything, he avoids the spotlight often, so I just don't see it honestly.
Cadenn says on 3/Nov/07
Wow, I thought he was much shorter than this. He always looked just as tall or shorter than Charlize Theron (listed here as 5' 9.75") in the Italian Job...
Rob G says on 20/Oct/07
Norton is 5'11.5" to 6'0.5" and btw Pitt is 5'10" to 5'11" just the way I see it though

He looked 5'11" next to Robert De Niro.
silver says on 3/Oct/07
Maybe comparing him to Ben Stiller -they worked in a movie together some years ago- we could have an idea of how tall he is, but of course nobody is able to tell the exact height of Stiller!
McLovin says on 1/Oct/07
Dude is no taller than 5'9. I saw him on the street in Toronto filming the Hulk, and he's a pretty small guy.
silver says on 28/Sep/07
to will h: if this guy was 5.7 as you say, he would be shorter even than Richard Gere (listed at at least 5.9) and this is clearly wrong, if you see them in the movie together
SugarSugar says on 26/Sep/07
I saw him on the subway in NYC, he was in sneakers and sweats - thin build, but definitely tall, I'm 5'6". I'd say he's my brother's size (almost 6'1"). Incredible blue eyes and sweet smile.
Aratirion says on 21/Sep/07
@Drews pictures of Ed and Pitt; If Pitt is 5'10 at the very least (i think this is the least he could be; anything beneath is ridiculous), then Norton gotta be 6'1; Maybe the angle is weird and their not standing straight, but I'm sure that there are at least two inch inbetween.
P.Crouch says on 20/Sep/07
He's one of the best actors in the world, for me he's the best.

I think he's 6ft.. he looks a bit taller than Pitt...
Bad Radio says on 9/Sep/07
i think he's 6'0.5 possibly even 6'1 but has very bad posture.
Adam Brennon says on 3/Sep/07
Watch 'American History X'. There is no way Norton could possibly be below 6' 0" in relation to the rest of the prison population.
Maria says on 30/Aug/07
He´s 6´.

Isabel says on 26/Aug/07
Yeah but compare him to Edward Furlong (about 5'7") in "American History X". He was clearly more than 2-3 inches taller than him. He may have been wearing shoes that gave him a slight boost, but the fact that his posture is terrible would take away from that. He is easily 5'11" at the least.
Pik says on 25/Aug/07
Yes, his posture is horrendous. There were scenes in Primal Fear where he looked only an inch taller than Gere. In other scenes 2-2.5 inches taller...
danius says on 20/Aug/07
he looked 5'10 to me in illusioist
Anonymous says on 18/Aug/07
He IS 183-184/185...there was a scene in primal fear where norton was 2-3 inches taller than richard gere
Isabel says on 17/Aug/07
To those who said he's 5'7" tops? There's no way that's possible, you angry, insecure manlets in denial.
krobert says on 10/Aug/07
he was on the daily show in about 2002 and Jon Stewart made a comment about him being "tall" (they worked together on Death to Smoochy, so they knew each other already). I seem to remember Norton replying flat out "I am six feet tall"
bam says on 7/Aug/07
he may be 6'1. His posture is horrendous.
Sam says on 1/Aug/07
Pitt is 5'11 and Norton is 6'0! Pitt, wearing lifts, is 6'1, and Norton, wearing lifts, is 6'2! END OF DISCUSSION!
kellizzle<3 says on 30/Jul/07
6'0-6'1, taller than the girl in keeping the faith ((shes 5'10))

with 6'1 brooks, norton is slouching
Leung says on 29/Jul/07
will h and dits, are you guys having a laugh?
will h says on 28/Jul/07
i saw edward norton last week, he was in toronto not only is he short but also tiny. He is 5'7'' at the most. I am 6'2'' and norton looked tiny.... really tiny
dits says on 26/Jul/07
NEVER has he looked to me a 6 footer!!

Snap said it right..he has the face of a short guy,like 5'7 or something. That's exactly what I'd say too.
dmesser says on 21/Jul/07
most celebrities are "around" 5'11 correct? such as Brad, Sean Penn, De Nero, Matt Damon and any of the the people that Norton worked with and Edward is always taller than them by at least 2 inches so he is at most 6'0

[Editor Rob: he can look shy of avery brooks, but not same posture in that AHX scene. In Illusionist in several scenes with decent posture beats Rufus Sewell.]
richinkle says on 11/Jul/07
I've never seen him in a movie where he looked as tall as 6'-0".
snap says on 1/Jul/07
you know , before I'd seen any of his movies and just like glimses of them and recongnised his face, I actually thought he was a 5-7ish guy (!) he has a 5-7ish face somehow, but i would say 6-1 for this guy, at least 6-0.5
Mr. R says on 19/Jun/07
I met him at a dinner a few years ago. This is pretty close. Somewhere between 6-0 and 6-1.
dmeyer says on 18/Jun/07
those pics arnt hard evidence since norton is on slighly higher level pitt posture is bad a 5'9 friend of mine looks only 2 in shorter than a 6'0.5 in friend of mine when they are walking because of slight floor advantage
Sam says on 13/Jun/07
A strong 6'1.
Leung says on 14/May/07
Yes Joe Mama, I recall when Meatloaf was doing interviews for Fight Club he commented that Norton was taller than him but the director made Meatloaf look much taller in the movie.
Drew says on 14/May/07
Yes Joe Mama. Not only that, but Pitt was wearing lifts and he was still a little shorter than Norton. In the pics I posted it is also evident that Norton is a good inch taller than Pitt, even with the slouch.

Strong six footer.
Joe Mama says on 13/May/07
in fight club, meatloaf had to stand on a box. later you can see norton's actually much taller.
Drew says on 4/May/07
If Norton is 5'11", Brad Pitt is 5'9"...

Not possible.
dmeyer says on 3/May/07
ed looks max 2.5 in taller than deniro who was barely 5'8 when i met him so maybe was 5'8.25 back in the score so weak 5'11 for norton he looked barely taller than damon in rounders so 5'11 or 5'11.25 looked barely taller than charlize theron who i think is 5'10 so 5'11.5 not mush taller than gere lets even say shorter than pitt on many occasion who i doubt that will go over 6'0.5 apearance likely 6'0 so in movies looks about 5'11 like 5'10.5 to 5'11.5 could be a 6 footer with terible posture
Drew says on 3/May/07
Lock richinkle, you can't compare height in movies. There are these things called lifts and camera tricks. Norton is 6ft EASY. He has a good 1.5 inches on Brad Pitt (when Pitt is not wearing lifts).

The current estimate is without a doubt CORRECT. 183cm at the very very least.
richinkle says on 29/Apr/07
I'm watching Primal Fear right now, and there is no more than an inch between 5'-10" Richard Gere and Ed Norton. Ed's an excellent actor, but I don't see him as being more than 5'-11".
AnotherAnonymous says on 19/Apr/07

Norton and Pitt look the same height!"

Yeah that's because Pitt is wearing lifts. Now, Pitt without lifts:

Norton is 6ft at the very least. I'd say he's closer to 6'1". He just slouches a lot.
marcelo says on 15/Apr/07
There's no way this guy's 6 ft. On "Primal Fear" he stands face to face with Richard Gere, who's listed here as being 5 ft 10, and they look exactly the same height...unless Gere wore lifts..anyway...
aeolianharpy says on 26/Mar/07
He towers over Salma Hayek in all the pictures of them together, and she's always wearing heels, usually platforms. I can see him wearing lifts or employing other methods of looking different to portray a character, so comparing his height with others onscreen seems pretty pointless. But even if Salma is only 5 feet tall, Norton couldn't be any shorter than 5'11".
Al capone says on 7/Mar/07
i see this guy at 5ft11.5, he is two inches taller then theron in the italian job.he seemed to have normal posture in the scene.

Norton is definitely taller than Pitt.

MD, let's close the book on Brad Pitt, then Norton's disputed height will fall into place. First of all, there is potent and convincing evidence for putting Brad Pitt at 5'9.5" tops. I encourage anyone who doubts this to look at the photos of him with Gwyneth Paltrow that Anonymous posted at Pitt's site on 2/13. Both of their footwear is visible - you can clearly see that Paltrow is wearing street shoes and not platforms - yet she is two inches taller than Pitt! Now in the Pitt-Norton photo, if Ed Norton is 6'.25" and is wearing an inch and a half of heels - a fair assumption because he would never appear at a paparazzi-studded event with low-heeled shoes - then he's close to 6'2' in the photo. But if that is true, then Pitt, who clearly towers over Norton, is pushing 6'4"! Can anyone see how absurd it all becomes? The only possible explanation is to recognize that many of today's male actors are wearing tremendous lifts and thus are really shorter than we think they are - any other explanation requires pathological denial as a starting point.
