Scene from Once Upon a Time in America filmed in 1982 this is the scene that will sink all the Woods 5'10 claims and the De Deniro 5'8 claims
James Woods is looking near 6 foot..DeNiro looks 5'9
Woods 182 peak
DeNiro 175 peak
Spence says on 13/Oct/09
With 5'8 Heather Graham..I can't see if she has heels on. If she has no heels on he still looks 5'10.5..with heels this easily proves he is a solid 5'11

Perhaps Belushi used flats while Woods had big shoes in Salvador, they always looked very similar in height during the whole movie. I would say Woods is not taller than 5'11" and not smaller than 5'10", so the current listing is accurate enough. However, he may have lost a little height since he's getting a little older...
I'd like to see Woods again in a memorable role, haven't seen him in anything as good as Salvador in years. How was he in person, Frank2? TELLEM says on 8/Sep/09
woods doesn't even look 5'11 here next to joe pesci: Click Here Frank2 says on 8/Sep/09
Or Rob Lowe wore lifts and is 5'8"! My God! It never ends! Frank2 says on 8/Sep/09
Yes, I've met Jim Belushi and he appeared slightly taller than me so I'd say six feet. But now I'm wondering if he wore shoes that boosted him. I've seen Woods and he's always looked an inch shorter than me. Plus check out this clip at 6:55 in. You see Woods standing next to Colby Chester who is about 6'2". Chester used to be under contract to Universal where I'd see him on the lot from time to time. Then Michael Murphy walks into the shot and he's clearly several inches taller than Woods. Murphy is about 6'1":

So this means that either Woods wore lifts or Belushi is actually closer to 5'10" and he wore lifts when I saw him. That also means Belushi wore lifts in ABOUT LAST NIGHT since he's clearly two inches taller than 5'10" Rob Lowe. I've seen Lowe and he's 5'10".
Interesting how actors seem to grow and then shrink and then grow. That's why they call those shoes elevators.
Oh, that entertainment website Rob won't let me mention claims Belushi is 5'11". MOF says on 7/Sep/09
So unless he wore lifts next to Woods, I'd say Woods is in the 5'10" area. However, Woods did look the same height and sometimes taller than James Belushi in Salvador (1986). Belushi is listed as 5'11" and some claim he is closer to 6', have you met Belushi Frank2? Frank2 says on 6/Sep/09
David Hyde Pierce is no taller than 5'9". MOF says on 6/Sep/09
There's a short moment where Woods stands right next to David Hyde Pierce in the the movie Nixon (1995). Pierce is listed here as 5'9.5" but could be as low as 5'9" and Woods looked only slightly taller, as in around 5'10". MOF says on 5/Sep/09
Woods can look anywhere from 5'10" near 6', but he's most likely close to 5'10", I'm basing this only on the movies I've seen him in. If Frank2 says he's 5'10" then he's probably right. Frank2 says on 1/Sep/09
If Woods is 5'11" then I must be six feet plus so is Tom Skerritt since he was obviously an inch taller than Woods in CONTACT. Tom and I are the same height. I've met him, worked with him on PICKET FENCES. He's 5'11". Woods is 5'10". James S. says on 31/Aug/09
He always looked about 5'11 to me. Maybe 5'10.5, but I'd say he is 5'11. Frank2 says on 4/Jul/09
Bet all you want. I've seen Woods in the flesh and he's shorter than me by about an inch. Watch CONTACT and you clearly see that Woods is an inch shorter than 5'11" Tom Skerritt. I worked at Fox when Skerritt starred in PICKET FENCES and saw him all the time. He was my height. RisingForce says on 3/Jul/09
Woods seemed about the same height as 5'10.5" listed Telly Savalas when he guest starred on Kojak and Telly had bigger heels so I'd bet that Woods was atleast 5'11". J Jonah Jameson says on 11/Feb/09
I just saw a great movie called Night Moves with him and Gene Hackman (1975). Next to a then 6'2 Hackman he looks 5'11 tops. Check it out. Frank2 says on 11/Oct/08
Then Brolin is 5'9" or Woods wore lifts. I've met Woods. Stood right next to the man and he's shorter than me by an inch. And I worked on PICKET FENCES and Tom Skerritt and I are the exact, same height or 5'11".
Once again. Watch the film CONTACT. Woods is an inch shorter than Tom Skerritt. Valeri says on 11/Oct/08
woods was an inch taller than brolin who portrayed bush,on the la premiere Frank2 says on 10/Oct/08
Watch CONTACT. Woods is clearly an inch shorter than 5'11" Tom Skerritt. Frank2 says on 3/Aug/08
Woods is 5'10". If not than I must be 6' 'cause each and every time I've seen him he's an inch shorter than me. Balto says on 28/Jul/08
Can some1 please explain the pic that Runt provided? Woods can't go from being 6"2 looking all the way down to 5"10. What the hell is going on in that pic? Jay Leno ain't no more than 5"11... I'm pretty sure. BTW lemony, good analysis. lemony says on 26/May/08
1 foot = 30.48 centimeters, 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters
Glenn = 5ft 8in = (5*30.48) + (8*2.54) = 172.72cm
Use a ruler: Wood ~ 18.5cm, Glenn ~ 17cm
Wood = 18.5/17*172.72cm = 187.96cm = 6ft 2in glenn says on 14/Mar/08
1994.i was 22.im almost 36 now. john says on 13/Mar/08
what year was that pic glenn, you look about 20 years younger sam says on 13/Mar/08
looks 6 foot here. in the good old days, actually looks decent here glenn says on 12/Mar/08
the whole ground looks funny to me. Jamal says on 11/Mar/08
glenn you look like your tip-toeing. Unless im trippin out. Either way, dude atleast 6ft in this pic. No one can disagree with that. But lifts is the question derek says on 4/Mar/08
He has never looked anywhere past 5'10 in any movie or in photos...... He must be wearing lifts here or some kind of lift. G-MANN says on 21/Feb/08
He does look quite tall in the picture with Glenn, more than 5'11". Anonymous says on 21/Feb/08
Looks 6 foot in that picture. ed says on 17/Dec/07
watching Against All Odds... from 84, Jeff Bridges is about 2.5 in taller Desireee says on 28/Nov/07
He's 6 feet, easily. I have stood next to him several times. salomon says on 16/Nov/07
glenn are you limpin? Gonzalo says on 17/Aug/07
He looks at least 6 feet in that pic, more than what I`d imagined Albi says on 8/Aug/07
Glenn, what I meant is that you [used to] wear very big shoes and they don't look good at all.
From other photos of Woods I saw on Google, sometimes by checking out an entire collection of photos (that is, both the photos with Woods and other people and photos of those people with yet other people) I can say that there is no way Woods is less then 5'11.75 (as dmeyer said). I'm not posting my research cause I know the editor won't upgrade him and it would be a waste of time. dmeyer says on 8/Aug/07
rob he was easy 5'11.5 to 5'11.75 at peak you should upgreat him glenn says on 8/Aug/07
those are black reebox,1993.duh.you have nothing better to do than to comment on boots? what do you look like? and wear? Albi says on 7/Aug/07
We know whats in Glenn's shoes though. Glenn is always wearing the ugliest boots around. Rachel says on 7/Aug/07
those shoes...who knows what's in them. jacobs says on 7/Aug/07
thats a joke if hes 5'10.5'' look at glenn and james,james looks 5'' taller than glenn he's more 6'1'' than 5'10.5'',if he is 5'10.5'' glenn can't be 5'8'' more 5ft6-ish ras says on 6/Aug/07
Rob, that's an interesting edit. If this was true then James Woods would be like another John Kerry, with a large face/forehead. He does seem to have a bigger head than the one of Glenn anyway. glenn says on 6/Aug/07
i agree with franco.even the bottom of his pants look weird to me.he got me good either way. colton says on 6/Aug/07
damn glen thought u said u was 5 8 james woods looks 6 foot 2 there certainly suprised me i didnt think he was that tall but never really seen him without a camera in his face. ras says on 5/Aug/07
I simply don't believe he's over 6 ft in that pic, how could he possibly look 6 ft 1-1.25 in that pic? Unless his forehead was more than 4 inches long. Again I se a 10 cm difference probably 10.5.
Click Here
If you click on the bottom right of the picture you can see Glenn's top of the head reaches Woods's eyebrows but his head is clearly leaning just a bit, which means he is (or was) 6 ft, nothing more or less, probably 5 ft 11.75 or 6 ft 0.25 but 6 ft even sounds more accurate.
[Editor Rob: if you think both faces are same distance from the camera - they're really not btw ;) - then you can use glenn's face as a barometer for the difference. So if you think glenn has near 4.5 eye to top of head...then you can see how people might even see no less than 6ft 1...

Glenn difference
] glenn says on 5/Aug/07
it almost looks like a hill going on there though. CoolJ says on 5/Aug/07
It looks like Woods has some pavement advantage. Bad Radio says on 5/Aug/07
in that pic he looks a solid 6'2. glenn says on 5/Aug/07
is he on a hill rob? either way he looks tall.
[Editor Rob: its hard to know if that pavement was level, but since you are close the effect might be small. But his face might be slightly closer than yours, for him to appear 6ft 1.] m walsh says on 4/Aug/07
i think he is huge, like a giant. well, maybe he is a bit old now, so maybe 190cm now.
[Editor Rob: he does look tall with glenn, 6ft 1-1.25 just looking at it without considering anything else.] King says on 4/Aug/07
Looks like a close 6-2 in that picture! Shoes? glenn says on 4/Aug/07
yeah,i suspect lifts.like i said,i couldve sworn he was closer to my height 4 years before this pic.like 5-10.so in reality he is 5-11ish guess.no way he could really be 6-1? or is he a legit 6ft? RICHARD says on 3/Aug/07
James actually looks very tall in this picture. He looks more like 6'1 than 5'11 here dmeyer says on 3/Aug/07
i agree the pavement is in favor but i steel see 6 dt also he does look 1 to 1.25 under denzel in john q Glenn says on 3/Aug/07
It does look like the pavement favors him a bit.still 6ft.possibly more.I agree he looks at least 6-1. saga says on 3/Aug/07
Ras are you blind??...you are ridiculous 'cause i can easily see 13-14cm there.
James Woods has got a huge forehead and his head is tilted a bit!
Look also at the shoulder...i can see almost 15cm, Glenn has a longer neck but James's head is much bigger.
He looks 6'1.5..no doubt about it! hi says on 3/Aug/07
if Glenn confirms the pavement didn't give him any advantage, his peak height should definitely be ugraded to 6'1 and his current height to 6 or a little less. if you compare this picture to others of Glenn with legit 6'1, there's little doubt this guy is much more than the listed peak 5'11 Truheight says on 3/Aug/07
I think the pavement slope is in wood's favor - that's the only explanation The Horse of FUNK says on 3/Aug/07
Wow, Woods looks strikingly tall in Glenn's photo. Seriously, he looks 6'.05", borderline 6'1"; which is weird considering I always pegged him as a solid 5'11". ras says on 2/Aug/07
The guys saying he looks more than 6 ft in the pic are simply exagerating, he may be 6 ft right on the dot or maybe even 182 cm. I simply don't see a 12 cm difference there (which should be under the eye, is Glenn's top of the head under his eyes level? no) 6 ft 2 is ridiculous. Anything from 5'11.5 to 6 feet is possible, but I don't see anything over or under that. Probably 5'11.75. Austrian says on 2/Aug/07
so you really are (part) indian
knew it :D dmeyer says on 2/Aug/07
the front of the shoe is too plat i doubt they are elevator dmeyer says on 2/Aug/07
you should give him aleast 5'11.5 to 6 ft peak and also he dosnt look too young in that pics Lmeister says on 2/Aug/07
In this pic he does look tall around 6'1'' - 6'2'', but there is a lot of pics of him in which he doesn't look over 5'11'' - 6'0''. The angle and the the sloping ground makes him look taller. I think he was 6'0'' ish in his youth. Glenn I think that you are right about Kevin Dillon. He probably is 5'10'' in the morning. He tends to slouch which makes him look 5'8'' - 5'9''. saga says on 2/Aug/07
Assumed Glenn is actually 5'8, James looks very close to 6'2 in the photo...definitely no less than 6'1-6'1.5!
Even with lifts a 5'10.5 man can't look near 6'2. There's something wrong Rob.
He's at least 5'11.5-6'0. derek says on 2/Aug/07
Damn he looks 6'1 - 6'1.5 in this pic.... had to be lifts or dress shoes? I heard listings of 6' a while ago but has looked 5'10 - 5'11 in recent pictures and movies I've seen. guy says on 2/Aug/07
Honestly in this photo he looks 6-2. The photographer appears to be directly in front of James with Glenn to his side though parallel. Either way he looks a good 6-0 to 6-1 with this under consideration. Marty says on 1/Aug/07
In this pic with Glenn he looks to be a good 5" taller than Glenn wich would put him at around 6'1 but he also seems to be wearing suspicious footwear, lifts ? Probably. But that would put him close to 6' nonetheless, lifts or not. Glenn says on 1/Aug/07
Kevin Dillon is 5-10.underestimating is the biggest problem on the site. bledildo says on 1/Aug/07
you sure he is 5'10 he should be about 6'or more in the picture above Lynn says on 1/Aug/07
Strange pic.
Too much difference.
Look Jamemes wood with 5'9" Kevin Dillon
Click Here Glenn says on 1/Aug/07
My eyes are closed Anthony.its called you blinked. its a full body pic.1994.just hit 5-8.moron Vaj said Stallone was shorter than Woods.now you see why.6-1 here.gave me a illusion of being close to my height in 1990,so he is tricky.Im Irish/Mestizo Indian. Anthony says on 1/Aug/07
Looks over 6' there. I always thought he was 182-183. Glenn, you look a bit sleepy there, no offense. Stiffelio says on 1/Aug/07
Looks more than 4 inches taller than 5ft 8in Glenn. At the very least he's 6ft; if not more. Time to upgrade him, Rob. Parker says on 1/Aug/07
Always looked a 6 footer to me. In the film 'The Hard Way' with Michael J Fox was always a full head taller in every scene dmeyer says on 1/Aug/07
his shoes dont lifted looks an easy 6 ft hey glenn were you already close to 5'8 Biker222 says on 1/Aug/07
Agree with Shiko. Looks 6'. Lifts? Austrian says on 1/Aug/07
wow Glenn with open hair
hey what are you ethnically actually, if i might ask?
youre hair looks indian hehe shiko says on 1/Aug/07
welli can seewhyyou placedhim at 5'11 but in the picture he really looks in the 6'0 - 6'1 range Random Person says on 1/Aug/07
Damn, does look over 6 foot in the picture easy. Shoes do seem a bit funny though. Obviously must wear lifts but, even still. He could still very well be 5'11. OutBenchThis says on 1/Aug/07
with his head tilted forward, he looks 6'.05"..you're right Glenn, he definately looks the 6ft you claimed he did..hmm, you'd have to say lifts maybe the answer if others have seen him at 5'10" Glenn says on 29/Jul/07
Photo coming where he looks taller than 5-11 next to me. footballed28 says on 23/Jan/07
You will also notice that his head is twice as big as Tiger's...meaning his head was a lot closer to the camera Bob H. says on 12/Dec/06
On last weeks SHARK episode James Woods was wearing some really big heels.
I was surprised that they left the shot in the program. He was gathered around all his lackys and it was obvious from the shoe shot that he is not the tallest in the bunch. I'd give him 5'10". Glenn says on 30/Oct/06
Another guy Frank shortened. Glenn says on 30/Oct/06
I have a photo where he looks 6ft next to me. dmeyer says on 29/Oct/06
at peak was more 5'11.5 to 6 Anonymous says on 26/Oct/06
i think 5'11" is pretty fair, maybee 5'10.5" they did a terrible job in the show shark of casting shorter female's around him tho... some people come to his chin, and others are almost eye to eye... this at least gives you a fair ascertion that he is tall... dmeyer says on 23/Oct/06
close to 6 at peak Spence says on 21/Oct/06
Ok you guys got it wrong again he is not 5'10. Watch Once Upon A Time in America. DeNiro was close to 5'10 at his peak I am very sure of this. Woods has got DeNiro by id say close to 2 inches. At his peak Jimmy was a strong 5'11. Not 6 feet but 5'11 1/2 is possible. Anthony says on 28/Sep/06
Woods was a solid 5'11 in his peak, especially if De Niro was 5'9. Woods was two inches taller in "Once Upon A Time In America". Anonymous says on 11/Sep/06
he was pushing 6 feet at peak Frank2 says on 6/May/06
Well, the first time I met Kirk Douglas was way back in the 1960's at a party and he was nearly my height. But he was wearing lifts. Back then I didn't know what lifts were. I had a friend explain it to me. Then I saw Douglas again a couple of years later and could see his lifts and how they made him taller. He had really good ones and wore his pants long so they covered his foot. The last time I saw him he was already old and didn't give a damn and was not more than 5'6". He was so bowlegged that he could barely walk. That was right before his bad helicopter accident which was followed by a terrible stroke. Glenn says on 5/May/06
Frank I agree,I thought Colin was my height cause looks short in movies.but I asked my friends and they all said to be polite,"a little taller".then when I meet the guy,and he is consistantly 5-11 everytime I see him,with long legs and body,I cant figure it out.you could kind of tell when someone is short with lifts.maybe he is a hair over 5-9 and wears lifts.5-8.5 is too low.thanks for hearing me out. Frank2 says on 5/May/06
Well, we agree on Woods. But in Farrell's case, why does he look so short in his films? Glenn says on 4/May/06
Its not about it being a myth Frank.you need to put your ego at rest.I AGREE WOODS is 5-10.but I SAW him look 6ft.so have others,hence the 6ft statements.just like I see Colin Farrell always at 5-11,maybe he is a little under 5-10.lifts arent the answer to everything,but in WOODS and Farrells case it might.you always seem to catch everyone liftless.I willing to bet my life Colin is no smaller than 5-9.75.I saw Woods look my height 16 years ago! Frank2 says on 3/May/06
Woods is exactly 5'10" This silly myth that he's 6' just cracks me up! I'm sure it tickles Woods as well. The reason he looked taller than De Niro is that he IS taller than De Niro. De Niro is only about 5'8". My God, an aging formerly 5'10" Dana Andrews was taller than De Niro in The Last Tycoon! Mr. Klaus says on 18/Jul/05
In Eyewitness (1981) he is a lot shorter than Morgan Freeman. If Morgan Freeman was 6 ft 3 at that time, then Woods was no more than 5 ft 10 in the 80s. Randy says on 13/Jul/05
I doubt Woods was ever more than 5'11. He was 35 when "Once Upon a Time in America" was made in 1982, still a young man, and looked only slightly taller than the 5'9 De Niro. Mr Luis says on 22/Apr/05
Maybe.
In Once Upon A time in America he looked like an inch Taller than De Niro who was at that time supposed to be 5'10. Mr. R says on 4/Feb/05
I actually don't think he was ever 6'. He looks 5'11" in most of his 80's films. Saw him in H'wood one night, spoke to me in my car. |
