clay has it ever occur to you that damon might also wear lifts since he is a even bigger star than garcia is and i don't understand why you had to involved glenn in this but he did not say damon was for sure 5'10, he said 5'9 was possible but unlikely and i agree with that because even 5'9 is pushing it for damon.mcfan kinnear was clearly taller than damon in that movie.
George H. says on 1/Jul/10
Cruise is a stilleto wearing midget.
Anonymous says on 1/Jul/10
I just watched on Hulu Tom Cruise being interviewed, and when Leno introduced him, he stood there waving at the camera for a while, and Leno stood up until he sat down. They were both similar in height. Which means Cruise has his lifts on, or Leno shrunk. But I think it's actually both. Go check it out now on hulu
mcfan says on 26/Jun/10
jtm, Damon was actually taller than Greg Kinnear in Stuck on You buy a half-inch.
Clay says on 18/Jun/10
Andy Garcia admittingly is a lift wearer. Said so himself. And he's roughly 5'9'' as is.

At least im not out trumpeting Damon as a ''for sure 5'10 '' like Glenn or something. Im trying to call it like I see it. I see 5'9ish.
jtm says on 9/Jun/10
damon is 5'8. he was shorter than andy garcia in ocean 11 and also looked 1 or 1.5 inches shorter than 5'9.5 greg kinnear in stuck on you. the only reason why you think he is taller is because you think mark wahlberg, mark ruffalo, and robert downey jr are all 5'8.

damon is 5'8 so no way is leno that short.

No he isnt. **** off with that. Lets see a pic?
Mathew says on 31/May/10
"I wanted to have a career in sports when I was young, but I had to give it up. I'm only six feet tall, so I couldn't play basketball. I'm only 190 pounds, so I couldn't play football. And I have 20-20 vision, so I couldn't be a referee."
- Jay Leno

Clever quote, regardless I'd say 5'11" tops peak height.
RisingForce says on 18/May/10
Damon is atleast 5'9" and Leno is or was 5'11". Maybe now at 60, he's 5'10.5" max.
jtm says on 13/May/10
damon is 5'8 so no way is leno that short.
bk says on 10/May/10
Yeah, definitely think he lost heights. The last time Matt Damon was on, they looked about the same height. Maybe 5-10.25.
Clay says on 8/Mar/10
He's 5'10-5'10.25 today, and like I said he must have lost a half inch or so being 60. Never over 5'10 Danimal? You're the one always ranting about height loss in old guys.

Just check him out next to 5'8 Bill Maher. This is an easy one to peg.
Bradi says on 8/Feb/10
This guy is 5'10'' max right now.

I doubt he was 5'11'' even in his prime. I think he was 179cm and hes now around 5'10''
Killing Joke says on 20/Jan/10
Actually looking at it closer, James Cameron had 4-5 inches on Leno!!!
Killing Joke says on 20/Jan/10
James Cameron was definitely 3-4 inches taller then Leno

179 today for sure. Hair short of 6'? He wishes.

Has never been over 5'10" (178).

179cm is nearer

MD says on 7/Jan/10
Yeah, maybe in his heeled dress shoes. lol

Exactly what I was thinking.
MD says on 7/Jan/10

swedish guy says on 6/Jan/10
He had to think a while before he answered how tall he was.
Most certainly he made it up because you know how tall you are.
Greg M. says on 6/Jan/10
Last night, on T.V., Leno said that he was only 1/10 of an inch shorter than 6 feet (that would have been on 1-5-2010).

Mark says on 6/Jan/10
Jay leno said on his program aired on January 5, 2010 that he is just a tiny bit less than 6'0" and said he weighs 208 pounds
Anonymous says on 6/Jan/10
Just watched Jay, said he was 208 pounds, and a hair under 6 foot, or 5'10" and 9/10ths to be exact.
Clay says on 11/Dec/09
5'11 guy as a young man, 5'10 and change today at age 60.
RisingForce says on 7/Dec/09
Had 8" or 9" on 5'3" Pat Morita in Collision Course
mId says on 1/Dec/09
looked 1'5-2" sometimes between him and arnold. there is exactly 1" between me and my brother and I thought the difference between arnold and leno looked bigger. but I could be wrong
RisingForce says on 21/Nov/09
Leno was only about an inch shorter than 6' Arnold Schwarzenegger. Click Here
Clay says on 18/Nov/09
Jay only looks 2 inches taller than Bill Maher whenever he has him on his show, which is why I think he is just 5'10 today. So I actually agree with Danimal. Could be 5'10.5.
Vegas says on 13/Nov/09
1998 ventura and leno, no more than 4 inches and ventura is closer to the camera Click Here
RisingForce says on 13/Nov/09
Jay claims to be 6 feet, but I think he's still about 5'11" like he's always been.
Clay says on 11/Nov/09
We need to remember Jay is a heavy-set guy and is now 60 years old. He has surely lost an inch since he was a young man. 5'11'' peak, 5'10'' today.
mId says on 9/Nov/09
danimal: .. when you got the time.. head over to the bret hart page..I asked you a question there I'm very curious about :) thanks in advance.
Danimal says on 9/Nov/09

5'10"
RisingForce says on 8/Nov/09
I wonder how tall Leno would look with these boots? Click Here

Danimal says on 27/Oct/09
5'10" guy. Was said to have been that height when he was being considered as a replacement for Carson in the early 90's. I recall having heard this very well. Unfortunately, I do not remember the source.
Nick says on 25/Oct/09
George- I heard that too somewhere
George H. says on 21/Oct/09
To Frank2: I once read that the stage for teh Tonight show had a slope in it to make guests appear taller than they really were. Is that true?
Clay says on 20/Oct/09
Jay used to be 5'11'' is more 5'10'' these days. Looks 5'10'' max whenever he stands next to Bill Maher.
mId says on 20/Oct/09
frank 2: on arsenio hall's page you posted that arsenio was an inch shorter than you.. making him 5'10 and you say leno was dead on with your height 5'11.. but wasn't arsenio about the same or even little taller than jay on jay's new show? they were standing beside eachother for quite some time. both were wearing dress-shoes.
Christian says on 17/Oct/09
He is bang on 5'11'', I am 100 procent sure of that.
mudslinger says on 30/Sep/09
This guys hard to pin because he has the body of a 5'7" guy and the head of Andre the giant. If you stare at him long enough, you begin to freak out and conclude that he just might be 7'tall.This is because the gravitational pull of his head actually bends the electromagnetic impulses in the synaptic junctions of your brain;thereby confusing you....just sayin.
James S says on 25/Sep/09
He is 5'11. He looks it all the way. I can see maybe 5'10.5 at shortest. But I'd say solid 5'11 no taller.
mudslinger says on 17/Sep/09
5' 10" tops.
Jesiah says on 3/Sep/09
I initially went to the L list looking for a comic named Natasha Leggero, no listing for her, but I did see a picture of her with Leno where he towered over her, so Natasha Leggero must really be tiny.....I thought Leno at least cleared 6ft the way he had so much height over Natasha Leggero.
G-MANN says on 18/Aug/09
I saw him at Goodwood Festival of Speed last month, but it was just a case of him walking past me and me suddenly realising that this white-haired middle-aged man was actually Jay Leno. I'm 6'1", I don't know if the ground was totally flat and he was stooping slightly (just in the way people do sometimes when walking around outside), but I'd guess 5'10" rather than 5'11". But you can't really take my word for it because it was only a very brief celebrity encounter, it's not like I actually meet him, he was with a few guys on his way to the VIP area anyway. I like Jay Leno, he seems like a down-to-Earth guy with a true passion for cars.
RisingForce says on 29/Jul/09
No way is Jay 5'10". I'd bet money that Frank2 is right on this one. Leno is a solid 5'11".
Frank2 says on 15/Jul/09
Have you met him? Stood right next to him like I have?
Anonymous says on 14/Jul/09
Sorry Frank, you are right most of the time but I dont expect you to be right 100 percent of the time. Jay looks 5-10 compared to other actors of known height on his show. He could be as high as 5-10.5 but no taller.
Frank2 says on 12/Jul/09
I've met Jay. He frequents a store that sells car magazines in Burbank, California. In fact he's there almost every Saturday driving a different classic car in his collection. I've spoken with him and he looks eye-to-eye to be my my height and I'm 5'11".
jt says on 11/Jul/09
i just met jay yesterday at heathrow airport in london...first before the height question, he's a gentleman...pushing his own luggage, seemed a bit lost, i said "hey Jay how's it goin? thx for the free concert in detroit"...he reached over shook my hand and said "hi..yah we had alot of fun with that...you flying home?"....and so, not liker other full of themselves celebs he's a good guy....and now height...I'm 5'9 and he was at least 2'taller and stooped over a bit so I would say 5'11 to 6'0....more important a good guy
Clay says on 23/Jun/09
Agreed Alex.
MD says on 19/Jun/09
Charlie,

It'd be nice if you could post that photo, here. If you don't know how, you can ask Rob for assistence.
charlie says on 18/Jun/09
i'm 5' 10.5" with shoes and i'm about same height as him in a pic i have side-by-side.
Alex says on 21/May/09
5'10-5'10.5 seems more right for Leno. Certainly not under 5'10 but doesn't look a full 5'11 either.
jessica says on 19/May/09
Actually, I think Jay is 5' 11". Tonight, Cameron Diaz (who is 5' 8) was the guest and she was wearing 3 inch heels making her the same height as Jay.
Jason W. says on 3/Apr/09
he did appear to be a good 3 inches taller than carrot top(who is guessed at 5 10 on this site) last night. i would guess carrot top as closer to 5'8 tho.
Hanging upside down says on 19/Mar/09
Apparently some people who comment on here think 1 inch is "towering." Shaq standing next to a 5'9 is "towering." 5'10 vs 5'9 is not. If Jay Leno was 5'9 tops as some say, he would look VERY short compared to President Obama, but he doesn't.
