jonny says on 23/Apr/08
today I saw one of the first episodes of dawsson and he looks 5'11 next to josuah but then I realize van der beek had a bad posture durind dawson first days always slouchign and running and it was hard to tell...but the guy its a 6' footer jonny says on 5/Apr/08
he is an easy 6' footer...he always look tall to me..never looked short...
he was barely shorter than jackson on dawson's reek and like 4 inhes taller than somerhalder in rules of attraction...he was also quite taller than katie holmes who's 5'9 and when she was in heals he was till taller...he could be 184
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 Viper says on 3/Mar/08
No, Josh Jackson is 6-0. James is under 6-0. 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? Viper says on 18/Dec/07
That blows me away. 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 Viper says on 17/Dec/07
Are you sure it wasnt lifts? 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 Viper says on 3/Dec/07
He looked to be of average height. Not short or tall. 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 Viper says on 9/Oct/07
You are being fooled by some lifts in a few pictures. Just look at the video wih Gubler. That shows his real height. 5-9-5-10. Can look cloer to 6-0 in lifts. 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.. Viper says on 8/Oct/07
Hes 5-9 1/2 possibly. 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. Viper says on 24/Sep/07
Ashton is 6-2 at best. This Gubler looks 6-1 in other photos. 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.. Viper says on 20/Sep/07
I think James might be a lift wearer. 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

Click Here
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 Viper says on 21/Jun/07
Im calling BS on that radio man. He never looked the same height as him or even taller from what I could remember. The guy is lucky If hes even 5-11. 5-10 barefoot looks right for him. Also Josh Jackson always looked taller by a couple of inches most of the time. 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". Viper says on 15/Jun/07
Vanderbeek never looked 6-0 with 6-0-6-1 John Wesley Shipp. Always looked 2-3 inches shorter. 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,... Viper says on 18/Feb/07
JK, there are a few guys on here over listed on this site. Im pretty shocked he is listed at 6-0 on here. 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'' Viper says on 16/Feb/07
Hes never looked 6-0 to me on television. 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!! Viper says on 14/Feb/07
I think hes 5-10. Could be as tall as 5-11 but I doubt that even. radio_man says on 14/Feb/07
well viepr, how tall you think he is? I think he's no less than 6'0.. Viper says on 13/Feb/07
Hes wearing lifts there, Im 100 percent sure. Hes never looked that tall before. 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.. Viper says on 17/Jan/07
He does look tall in those premeire pics. Strange. I think hes wearing lifts there. Joshua Jackson always looked a good deal taller than him and hes between 6-0 and 6-1. radio_man says on 17/Jan/07
he seems 6'0! if he's shorter than that the enitre cast of ruels of attraction are midget!! lol, he's tall! dmeyer says on 12/Jan/07
at the vanity fair party he walked by me i had 1.4 dockers so like 6'0.5 in in shoes so i looked 5'11.5 and he was shorter than me so i think he is at beat ny height 5'11 i aint sure 6 feet is a lidl generous but he just walked by me i didnt see him long enaugh but billy zane walked by me and looked 184 cm so 1.5 inches taller than james radio_man says on 12/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..! Glenn says on 6/Jan/07
I believe you. Anonymous says on 5/Jan/07
glenn.. he`s 6'0 maybe 6'1, he's tall.. check on rules of attraction or Dawson's creek the lates episode whe he looks older..sometimes I think they downgrade his height on Dawson's to make him look younger Viper652 says on 15/Nov/06
He looked 5-10 Max in Dawsons Creek. 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. Glenn says on 2/Oct/06
Im kind of with Viper on this one too.looked 5-11 to me. Viper652 says on 2/Oct/06
Then he is the shortest looking 6-0 bloke of all time. JK says on 30/Sep/06
he is 6'0'' Viper652 says on 21/Sep/06
I just watched the new movie the Plague and James looked 5-10 Max in that movie to me. No way 6-0. Viper652 says on 19/May/06
I never said he looked 5-7, I said he looked around 5-10 flat in relation to other actors and Katie Holmes. 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. Glenn says on 17/May/06
Agree. 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? Viper652 says on 17/May/06
Biggs is more like 5-8 UNK, but that would still confirm Vanderbeek to be above the 5-7-5-8 range. 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". Viper652 says on 14/May/06
Id say Katie is 5-8 tops. She doesnt look any taller then that next to other actors and co-stars, and thats her listing on the internet. James had about an inch to maybe 2 inches on her in the show. Thats why I have always pegged him to be no more then 5-10 flat. Though its possible he wore lifts to look taller. ~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 Viper652 says on 13/May/06
Wow, so the original 5-7 listing for him could be true? That would be crazy If he really was that height and they list him at 6-0 now. 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!] Viper652 says on 21/Apr/06
Well, James was first listed on the internet at 5-7 when he started Dawsons creek. So their could be some truth to Jamal's sighting. Does James wear lifts? I personally think he is 5-10. At least thats what he looks like on TV to me. 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. Viper652 says on 4/Jan/06
Damn, James has some of you guys all fooled. He is no taller then 5-10 Max. Ive even seen a couple of listings of 5-7 for him back in the day. 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. Viper652 says on 30/Jul/05
Its interesting how Celebrityplus.com has this guy listed at 5-7. I dont think hes that short, but the Internet has 3 different listings for this guy. 5-7, 5-10, and 6-0. Its very unlikely he is 5-7 and 6-0. So 5-10 does make sense just from the different listings. Viper652 says on 1/Jul/05
If Vanderbeek is 6 foot tall I have a Bridge to sell you :) I do think the 5-10 listing is correct for Kerr. And James always looked at least an inch shorter then him on the show. The 5-10 listing for VanderBeek on the Web might be a little off even. 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 ;)] Viper652 says on 6/May/05
There is no way this guy is even close to 6 feet. I would say hes around 5-9, maybe 5-10. 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. |
