Alot of child actors are short. They are usually older than they play and people dont notice how short they are early in there careers because they expect them to grow. Short kids are usually the best actors though

Producers, Directors Pick Short Kids for movies all the time
Have you ever seen a show with a family where the Kid is as tall as the dad NO!.
usually the Dad should be 3-4 inches taller then the son
They want to pick short kids that look young it works out much better.
For ex. Joshua Jackson in the Mighty Ducks
Jeremy sumpter for peter pan they picked him cause he was 14 5'0 and looked young but after a few months that didnt work out did it Maribel says on 10/Jan/09
We can't be telling people to grow at this height and that. That is up to them if they want to be short, average, or tall. Just let it go. Jacob64 says on 23/Dec/08
While I agree that it's important to eat healthy, it's specious at best to think that this guy is short because he was on a bad diet when he was younger. Given the tons of crap that Americans eat and given their size - height and width - the diet link doesn't hold up. Odds are his folks are short and so is he. Anyone who has a problem with that seriously needs to get over themselves. Minimum says on 27/Nov/08
If only younger people would get more on the fruit and vegatble diet and less junk food and get plenty of sleep at night, they'd grow as tall as the previous generations. But that's totally up to them, we can't force it down their throats. miser says on 22/Nov/08
"No it is coincidence i know many that turned out huge take Jeremy Sumpter for example who grew like like 8 inches in a few months
and Josh Peck who grew 4 inches after 18 and he's been on tv since he was a kid"
Jerry O'Connel also. Maybe it is just coincidence but That's interesting... stressfull environments are bad for growth. Minimum says on 20/Nov/08
This guy might've been on a bad diet when he was younger. That's probably why he's short. Bruce says on 31/Oct/08
looks 5'4.25" to me Zoe says on 22/Oct/08
He used to play football in Highschool so he might be short but used be pretty strong. And about child actors being short...A lot of them are also tall. Look at Josh Brolin, Cohen's Goonies costar. CLEM says on 8/Oct/08

And yeah, Rob, one thing I've noticed about many child stars is that they tend to turn out short. Very rarely do they turn out average or tall.
That's what I've been wondering as well. Is making movies bad for adolescent growth?
David Faustino, Corey Feldman, Sean Astin, Elijah Wood, Corey Haim, Daniel Radcliffe and many more are all around the 5'5 area.

Aw man, he doesn't look all cute and chunky anymore. All lot of these child actors always grow up to be real short for some reason. J.Lee says on 7/Oct/08
rob, i asked you some questions about jenny's height and girls and guys height. it was on that page with the 5 foot 8 guys with big hair, aj something. please post the link for that so i can see how you replied.
[Editor Rob: this is buckley page.
I have measured Jenny at a few heights in the evening now, yesterday she was 5ft 8.25 actually. Her range can be as high as 5ft 8.6 and as low as 5ft 8.25!] Big Show says on 6/Oct/08

Rob, Gotta say that the beard suites U. Have you ever tried handlebar moustache a la the Edge.
[Editor Rob: nah, it would get annoying having it too long.] Anonymous says on 5/Oct/08
Guy's right, he looks exactly the same in both pics. incline says on 4/Oct/08
whats up with that pin your girlfriend wears (sex?)? And a tinkerbell sticker sometimes...odd...
[Editor Rob: she is a sex addict...and proud of it.
no it's sfx [magazine] addict and she like tinkerbell ;)] Guy says on 3/Oct/08
Wow, is he just a cardboard cutout? He looks exactly the same in both photos. Alex says on 3/Oct/08
Rob, you look 4 inches taller than him at least and he has a slight footwear advantage. He could be 5'3 1/2.
[Editor Rob: by slight I'm talking he has a 1.2 inch shoe, so like 0.2. There is a chance he's slightly under, I did think 5ft 4 when I saw him, as did jenny.] The Horse of FUNK says on 3/Oct/08
Wait wait, that's the fat kid from Goonies? Wow... I guess I can see it in the eyes, but other than that I never would've guessed that's him.

Spot on Rob.
[Editor Rob: all the goonies turned out short, well I don't know about Jonathan Ke Quan though? He was very pleasant I may add, and couldn't do the truffle shuffle these days...too slim!] |
