mId says on 15/Feb/10
also.. saw an old episode of dawsons creek recently.. chad michael murray walks past kerr smith and kerr is a little taller.. chad later in the episode describes kerr as tall as if kerr was taller than murray. and I don't really think kerr looks like a legit 6' either.. so how tall are these guys really? could be they weren't finished growing at that point or something ;D Anonymous says on 12/Feb/10
Mid I agree...Rob, u think James may be under? mId says on 11/Feb/10
when he was on carson daly he was noticable shorter and was still wearing big boots that looked like liftaction. how tall is daly then? enrique eglesias is taller than daly. no I can't really by 6' for james.. he never looked it to me .. even pacey was atleast 1" taller on the show. but I never met him so.. dmeyer says on 10/Feb/10
i had 1 in snekers so about 6 ft 0.25 he was 1.25 in taller thats 6 ft 1.5 with shoes bt e did hae solid 0.5 in footwear advantge 1.3 cm solid six ft taller than i expected he looked near in height with my 6 ft 0.75 friend just about as tall but ad shoes advantage e gave an impresion of over 6 ft so he is 6 ft but if he had lifts then he is 5 ft 10.5 to 5 ft 11 mId says on 20/Oct/09
this guy has always looked around 5'10,5.. this site has a photo with jason mewes and lists him at 5'11.5.. in jay and silent bob strike back van der beek and mewes are standing face to face and van der beek is like 1' shorter. t-chock says on 4/Aug/09
he is taller than luke perry about 3.5 or 4 inches confessional says on 16/May/09
no downgrade...van der beek its 6' in minus
murray its about 6' too, murray shoes on that episode looked suspicious...trust me unknown says on 14/May/09
George 5'11 sounds right then Chad Michael Murray needs to be 5 ft 11.75 in. or 6 ft. even! George says on 14/May/09
Rob, would it be possible to downgrade James to at least 5'11? unknown says on 13/May/09
thanks George you noticed too! Murray got him by at least in a inch I'm sayin a tad more. Needs to be downgraded to 5 ft 10.5 at least or Chad M. is 6 ft. on the dot. No way is James taller posture or not. Plus looking at Chad's foot ware, no excessive footware went down,lol! Doug says on 21/Apr/09
He has the long head of a 6'4" guy. Looks around 5'11" to me. George says on 13/Apr/09
Yes, he did look shorter than Murray and Van Der Beek was in professional attire so he was wearing dress shoes. Van Der Beek was wearing a tight shirt tucked in and he looked kindof short. A legit 6'0 would not look that short. This guy may be 6' in his shoes, but barefoot he's around 5'10.5 to 5'11. confessional says on 12/Apr/09
donest look shorter than murray, his characater weas always drunk and height and always in bad posture and they looked about the same, plus. chad was wearing suspicious shoes..so..van der beek is 6' and also dmeyer met him and met a lot fo c celebreties and he said that van der beek is a legit 6'0! dani says on 9/Apr/09
This guy is no more than 5"10-5"11. He's never 6"0, people who are saying he's 6"1-6"0 are blind and need to have their eyes checked. George says on 7/Apr/09
Ok, anyone who watched James guest star in the new episode of One Tree Hill would have noticed that he was 1-2 inches shorter than 5'11.5 Chad Michael Murray. No way is James a legit 6'0! Greg says on 24/Mar/09
I met him in a airport and I'm like 6'1'' and he was a bit shorter then I was so I'd like 5'11'' dani says on 17/Mar/09
i don't buy him being 6"0, probably 6'0 with lifts. confessional says on 4/Mar/09
looks 6' never looked shorter than that for me Anonymous says on 15/Feb/09
There is no way The Beek is over 5'10.Im 179 and when I met him I had over an inch on him! Anonymous says on 20/Jan/09
If anyone watched last night's episode of "One Tree Hill" he did a guest spot on...he's dwarfed by Chad Michael M, needs a down grade big time. He's min. 5 feet 11 at best. If not down graded...Chad M. is just under 6 feet 1,lol!!! jiijijijjijijijijiijijji says on 4/Dec/08
he looks and inch shorter than colin hanks, so hes at least 6'
maybe 6'.05 Anonymous says on 25/Nov/08
Could this guy be shorter? He guest starred on Criminal Minds a while ago. Here's a mock documentary of one of the show's cast members Matthew Gray Gubler meeting up with James. Matthew is 6'1" by the way.
Click Here tony van der beek says on 19/Oct/08
hes my cousin an he is 6 ft Layne Van Der Beek says on 18/Oct/08
If kate holmes is 5'8'' legit, then I believe that the beek is probably about 5'10 1/2''-5'11'' barefoot. and maybe 6 in lifts. I think I would be about the same height as he if I were to meet him in person. Cause those of us who stand a little bit under 6ft, give the 6ft billing. and the 6 footers legit are given 6ft2 billings. Its weird, but thats the way it goes. howie day says on 18/Sep/08
nicole...or you are lying or you just cant messure heights..if van der beek its 5'8 or 5'9...that maske katie holmes at 5'5, ian som,erhalder at 5'4, and things like that..van der beek its not shorter than 6' Nicole says on 5/Sep/08
Years ago I met James Van Der Beek on the set of Dawson's Creek, I had to do a scene where I'm walking by him and I had to grab his butt. Anyway before shooting the scene James and I talked and he was not very tall at all. My real height is 5'3 1/2 and I was wearing 3 inch heels when we talked so I was about 5'6 1/2, and James wasn't too much taller. He looked like he was about 5'8-5'9, no Joke! In fact I remember thinking to myself about how short he was. I expected him to be much taller. Hope that helped. Bosco says on 12/Mar/08
nothing under 6'0..viper i have to agree with you in other celebs except with jackson and beek..
I forgot to mention..I met van der beek and he was like 6'1 but he was in sneakers..so the man gotta be 183 in minimum..
jackson its 6'1 Bosco says on 3/Mar/08
looks like a 6 footer to me...nothing below that...joshua jackson had and inch on him and he is like 187 so he must 183 to 184 gossip boy says on 18/Feb/08
this guys looks like 6'1.05 maybe 6'2 in rules of attraction..so he must be like 6'0.05 184 cm could be more accurrate height_police says on 21/Dec/07
you see viper? radio_man was right all along...and I have to agrre with him..he is a tall guy...
byt the way dmeyer..exactly how tall are you? is james a nice guy? dmeyer says on 18/Dec/07
sorry my comment wasnt clear,james looks about 6 ft 0.5 in,but he had footwear advantage like 1.5 cm so 183 cm seems right dmeyer says on 17/Dec/07
ad 1.5 to to 1.6 in heels he was about 6'1.285 to 6'1.5 in shoes so 6 ft barefeet but if he had 1 in lifts inside he could be 5'10.75 ,but lets say his shoes were normal thik casual boots with 1.5 in heels i had 0.9 in heels like 2.3 cm and he had about 4 cm ,he did have the build of a tall guy ,i think he didnt have lifts because if he had he would have weard smaller outside heels like 1 in ,i was expecting 5'11 from that guy ,and he looked 6'0.5 in minus 0.5 to 0.6 advantage he is 6 foot ,rob was right once again dmeyer says on 16/Dec/07
i talked to him today he looked lidl over 6 ft but he had 1.5 in heels and i had 09 to 1 in heels so 6 ft seems accurate Ted says on 3/Dec/07
doesn't look tall. I always thought he was short on his series RobertJ says on 5/Nov/07
He needs a downgrade, at least to 5'11''. I don't think he's shorter than 5'10''. radio_man says on 20/Oct/07
exactly jackie...he can easily look 6'1 in shoes..I saw standing still
and he was the taller of the gang except for colin hanks..whom was a bit taller like 1cm maybe 2..
I was checking van de rbeek shoes on that film and seems normal..in one scene he's barefoot next to the poll and heas still taller...than everybody..so..6'0.5 can be the taller for van der beek barefoot Jackie Treehorn says on 17/Oct/07
Agree radio. At this point I would pin him between 5-11.5 and 6-0. Also, the Gray Grubler video below makes him look about the same height as that guy (not much lower). radio_man says on 15/Oct/07
the minimum I can see van der beek its 5'11 barefoot. no shorter than that..
he has a large body..and you can clearly see it radio_man says on 8/Oct/07
viper...you are very good in judging heights..I agree with you with a lot of starts but in the van der beek thing..I have to disagree..this guy is not shorter than 5'11 and no taller than 6'1..so..he's on that range.. Rob says on 7/Oct/07
When Dawsons Creek was popular, I remember a Radio DJ was talking about how she met James Van Der Beek. The female DJ kept going on and on about how James was much shorter than she thought. radio_man says on 24/Sep/07
well if matthew its 6'1, wich I doubt..he looks like ashton kutcher height, van der beek would be 5'11, for me...
its simple..Matthew its like 6'3..maybe a little less and van der beek its like6'0.5.. trueheight says on 19/Sep/07
with Matthew Gray Gubler (6'1) in this clip, James appears only 5'10 - even struggling w/ 5'10. They stand face to face - watch clip starting at 2:25

he looks pretty tall in there
like 6'1..probably 6'2 but he's wearing shoes like 1 inch
so I think he's 6'0 maybe a bit more radio_man says on 21/Jun/07
well, he's 6'0..no doubt with no doubt..with a bad posture he can look too 5'11 but he's 6'0 and Viper, in some scenes he looked taller than john L0GAN5 says on 20/Jun/07
If you watch Ali Larter's nude scene in Varsity Blues he is clearly only a couple of inches taller, and she is listed as 5'7/8 so I reckon about 5'10". jessie says on 14/Jun/07
in the dawsons creek episode "all good things... must come to an end" they are all at a wedding and katie holmes is wearing 3-4 inch heels and dawson is at least an inch taller than her. he is definitely at least 6ft Anonymous says on 6/Jun/07
met him at the molly pitcher inn in red bank Nj last November. He's definitely 6ft, a strong 6 ft even. his huge forhead may throw you off, but he was barely shorter than my buddy who is 6'2" barefoot. so 6ft or maybe even a little over would be right. Josh says on 3/Jun/07
Yeah In Varsity Blues he looks 5'10, the most 5'10.5 If u wanna be generous put him at 5'11 the most. Anonymous says on 26/May/07
NO way in hell 6'0.
There's a scene in VARSITY BLUES where Ali Larter (5'7) is standing in front of him barefoot, and wearing shoes he couldn't be more than 4 inches taller than her.
5'9.75 ... maybe 5'10.25. Definitely needs a downgrade. what the hell says on 13/Apr/07
he's 6'0 maybe 6'1
I saw an episode of dawson0s this morning, and he was talking to joshau and the were in the eye eye level, joshua myabe was like 1 or 2 cm taller but that's all, he's quite tall, taller than I expected, he wasn't wearing lifts, both of them wearing sneakers Anonymous says on 9/Apr/07
van der beek is about 5'10 - 5'11.Never 6 foot.A true 6 footer is pretty tall and thats not him. radio_man says on 18/Feb/07
6'2.5 Jk: I agree with you..
sometimes he lokks 6'1!! he's a tall guy,... 6'2.5'' JK says on 17/Feb/07
Come on don't be pathetic, if He was anything under 6'0'' especially 2 inches or more, Don't you think Rob would change his height and not keep him listed as 6'0''. I also think he is no less than 6'0'' radio_man says on 16/Feb/07
i dont know, he seems 6'.0
joshua was just a bit taller than him sometimes they were the same height!! radio_man says on 14/Feb/07
well viepr, how tall you think he is? I think he's no less than 6'0.. radio_man says on 13/Feb/07
anonymous
I watched attraction again and you're right he seems pretty tall, perhaps 6'1 too!, he's no wearing lifs, just regular shoes.. radio_man says on 17/Jan/07

I agree with you Anonymous says on 10/Jan/07
well, I have the fil and in some scenes they make ian look taller but the guy is short!!, if you see van der beek standong next to shannon sossamon( wearing 2 0r 3 inches heals) van der beek was a lot taller like 3 or 4 inches taller and in another scene shannos is with ian wearing the same heals and was taller tahn ian. so.. van der beek is tall! at least 184, but there's no way he's shorter than 6'o..! radio_man says on 15/Nov/06
he`s a tall guy!!
6`0 in rules of attraction he looks 3 inches than ian somerhalder who`s 5`9.. so he`s a tall guy!!. and dawson`s creek he loks taller than 5`9 katie holems and 5`10 kerr smith and 1 inch shorter than joshua jackson. he`s tall!! why you wanna say he`s not?.. UNK says on 2/Oct/06
Could be 5'11", but no less. I met the guy, and look at the pic I posted next to Biggs (5'9") below. JK says on 30/Sep/06
he is 6'0'' J-Dog says on 18/May/06
Vips, that is a pretty far stretch. I think at times the downgrading is very illogical and I don't understand the fervent need to lower everyone's height. Never has this guy looked 5'7", you would just be able to tell at that low of a height by his body proportions and no lifts unless he is wearing 5 inch lifts are going to let him tower over Katie Holmes with high heels on. met him today at the apple store says on 18/May/06
He is 5-10" i met him and talked to him today at the apple store in sherman oaks california. very nice guy, he bought 2 new laptops. leonari says on 17/May/06
Viper652: Sorry but you are losing it man...5'7" is such a ridiculous claim for this guy...actually I'm shocked...He is way taller than Katie Holmes (5'9") and actually looks quite tall where ever you see him...I could accept 5'10" maybe 5'11" but 5'7",5'8" ...please don't bring this site down with such ridiculous claims. OK? UNK says on 16/May/06
Once again, I met Van Der Beek in NYC he is 5'11"-6'0". I know I don't have a pic to prove it, but I have no reason to lie, I am not a fan and don't care at all how tall he is.
Watch Jay and Silent Bob and you will see him standing much taller than 5'9"-5'10" Jason Biggs. There is NO way the guy is under 5'11". ~Nate~ says on 14/May/06
This is ridiculous! LOL James is nobody's 5'7/5'8 How would you account for him towering over 5'9 Katie Holmes even when she's in heels!? You people are ridiculius! LOL I met Katie once Planet Hollywood back in 00 when Dawsons Creek was still the business and she was very sweet, I'd peg her around 5'9 closer to 5'10, so there is no way James is 5'7 unless he has retractable alien legs Anonymous says on 11/May/06
rob, i'm really surprised at this listing. i met van der beek in santa monica last week and took a picture of him with my younger brother, who is 14 and stands 5'8. My brother was about half an inch taller than Van Deer Beek. I'm a grown man, 26 years old and am just under six foot and i towered over him. i think you should downgrade him to 5'8 or at most 5'9 J-Dog says on 21/Apr/06
That is a horrible height estimation of 5'6" or 5'7", that is hugely unrealistic, do you have any idea how small that would look to a 6'3" guy. I think guys expect all celebrities to be larger than life and when they find out they aren't as big as they thought they take pride in knowing they are larger, I am only 6'1.75" and 5'11" looks smallish to me, but I wouldn't assume the 5'11" guy was 5'3".
Rob do you think Van Der Beek needs a downgrade? 5'11"?
[Editor Rob: he could be one of the magical 5ft 11.5 club...they are very very scarce in Hollywood, finding one of these endangered species actually admitting they fall 1/2 inch short of 6ft is a rare thing!] UNK says on 21/Apr/06
@jamal - that is complete crap, or you don't know how to estimate height. i met him after an off broadway play in NYC he did a few years ago, right after dawson's creek ended. he is definitely in the 6'0" range... maybe 5'11", but no shorter than that. jamal says on 20/Apr/06
i met him in las vegas a few weeks ago, we were staying at the same hotel, i am 6'3'' and i TOWERED over him. In my personal opinion, he looked like 5'6''-5'7. REALLY small. Or at least must smaller than many would think.. Josh says on 11/Feb/06
He really doesn´t look like a solid 6 footer he barely looks 6-0 with shoes , in Dawson´s Creek he always looked 5-11.5 (182cm) to me with sneakers so barefoot he´s 5-11 (180cm) posibly 5-10.5 (179cm) dmeyer says on 17/Jan/06
i walked by him i had 1.5" heels i was around 6'1" in my shoes and james didnt look as tall as me like 1 inch shorter 175cm16andgrowing says on 4/Jan/06
No, never 5'7''. www.absolutepictures.com list him at 6' and 190lbs... yes, 190lbs is wrong but 6' is correct, more than correct. 175cm16andgrowing says on 3/Jan/06
Well... the guy is skinny, very skinny... at least he looks very skinny and so he seems to be very tall. Nothing under 6'1'' I'D thought... he's a pretty large face and if 'm correct he looked just a tad under Paul Walker which measn Walker is just 6'1'' or 6'1.5'' and not the 6'3'' he claims. vanderbeek says on 22/Nov/05
i saw an article that said he wore lifts to look near 6'2" jackson , and it said he was only around 181cm tall ... ill try finding it on the internet , but it did point Jackson as being a solid 6'2" guy ... Brett says on 2/Nov/05
Yeh I dont understand why people think if they are 6'0" in shoes then thats there height, you have to take off an inch obviously, sometimes more, especially in high lift hollywood Marc says on 25/Sep/05
With my shoes on I stand just over 5'10"- Maybe 5'10.5".I met James Van Der Beek in Hollywood and he stood about and inch taller than me. 6'0" would be accurate. J. says on 8/May/05
Yeah, I believe the 179 cm (69.8 inches, right?). He's not that tall. If you watch Varsity Blues and look at in publicity photos, he's an average height guy. Maybe an average height guy with an average height guy's fancy for lifts but who am I to say! ;-) dmeyer says on 8/May/05
i am 182 cm i saw james last year at the vanity fair and he looked 179 cm
[Editor Rob: no way, you certain this guy was shorter??? This might confirm some of those old rumours about his Dawson Creek footwear being enhanced ;)] Ricardo says on 27/Mar/05
What really surprised me about Dawson's Creek and continues to surprise me is that Kerr Smith ho is listed as 5'10" always seemed to be 1/2 inch taller than dawson in the series ( i would know i used to watch it for months ). Bit Dawson was always listed as 2 inches taller... strange... how can someone who is shorter or the same height as someone be two inches shorter... mike sig says on 24/Feb/05
Saw him at The Whiskey w. Hollywood. He was in dress shoes/wing tip like. I'm 5'9" I walked up to him eye to eye. I had shoes on that gave me about 1 inch. |
