looks 6'1" 👌

I'll say 6'0.75" but 6'1" flat isn't a bad listing.
Trut2 said on 6/Aug/22
He’s 6’0 barefoot people. 6’1+ in shoes depending on attire. End of
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Aug/22
Can look 185.5-187cm. More chance of just over 6ft1 than just under, IMO...
Jake: 1.84 m- 1.85 m said on 31/Jul/22
I think he's 186 cm.
Terry said on 30/Jul/22
Looks a very strong 6'1. Probably 6'1 and 3/4.
Bobby said on 2/Mar/22
Everyone else on Big Bang Theory is below average height, so Jim Parsons stands out.
Daycringeothon said on 23/Nov/21
Parsons could be a flat 6'1'' 185.4cm-185.6cm evening height. Judging from his long proportions he must be a 34" inseam. 34.5" inseam.
ChaosControl said on 10/Sep/21
I watched an episode or two of Bog Bang theory when I was a kid and thought Sheldon was a giant cause I thought the other guys were 5’9-5’11, which puts him at 6’5-6’6
Ethan Larsen said on 12/Aug/21
Jim clears 6ft 1, he has terrible posture.

"If he's 6'1, then what's happening here?"

That would be Fallon's lifts at work. Fallon's at best a hair over 5'11" and quite possibly in 5'10.5" territory in flat feet - I don't see Parsons being 2" to 2.5" lower than his most often cited 6'1". He might be more like 6'0.75 or 6'0.5" in flat feet, but he's definitely over 6 foot if you watch BBT at all. He's not built like a 5'11" guy at all - he's definitely on the tall end of things. He was on Conan and standing next to Conan there looks to be at MOST a 3" height difference between them - not a 5" one - he wasn't anywhere near as dwarfed as Jimmy Fallon was when Conan was on the same stage on the Emmys (65th).

Both Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel are constantly having their height inflated by 1 to 2 inches and both of them also happen to wear heels that add something close to 2". Combine that with Jim maybe being a hair under 6'1" - maybe 6'0.5" to 6'0.75" and assume Jim's in half inch heels while Fallon is in 2 inch heels and it starts to make sense.

I don't know if people realize this but in Hollywood....for men...lifts are EVERYWHERE. You name a male celebrity under 6' and you can almost bet money on them wearing lifts 99% of the time. These people have crazy money and their job is to look good on screen - and nothing makes a man look worse than looking diminutive next to a considerably taller man (unless you're someone like Danny Devito and your short stature is part of the fun) - so from Tom Cruise to Brad Pitt to, yes, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon, practically EVERYONE is wearing lifts and one big reason they almost HAVE to wear lifts: because if the other male actors /hosts are in 2" dress heels, they're going to lose face looking tiny next to them! Then there's the fact that many many FEMALE actors wear 3" to 6" heels to award shows and talk show appearances, and you start to understand WHY a guy who is, say, 5'11" in a world of 5'9" to 5'11" guys who are all wearing 2" heels...would feel the need to do that as well.

Meanwhile, taller guys who are over 6' like Parsons DON'T feel the pressure to look tall because they already are. So you occasionally have instances where barely 5'11" guys like Fallon in 2" heels standing next to, let's say 6'0.75" guys like Parsons who are 6'1.25 with half inch heels would look suddenly strikingly similar in height. That's the reality of what goes on in Hollywood.

Ever wonder why so many male celebs get the "I thought you'd be taller" line when someone meets them in person? That's why. Because if they're caught out in the open in tennis shoes and it's suddenly amazingly obvious that, say, Vin Diesel is clearly not 6'0" despite what google says....well, that comes up at odds with the magical height-changing celebrity.

Oh dear it's Jim Parsons' birthday today and he's 48! 🎂🎉 wow can't believe Sheldon Cooper is nearing 50.
Slim 6'1.5 said on 1/Mar/21
Just a hair over 6’1” definitely not 184cm
Adan Martinez said on 21/Feb/21
185.4 cm is 6’0.99

But sure 6’1
Torrinator said on 21/Feb/21
@Steven Stinson

I would go with this:

Parsons - weak 6ft 1. Proportionally passes for a stronger six one.
Kevin Sussman - solid 5ft 8
John Ross Bowie - 5ft 7.5 not really taller than Nayyar.
Nayyar - as Rob saw in person a fraction over 5ft 7.
Cuoco - I think just 5ft 5.5. Can appear close to Galecki with poorer posture.
Galecki - Probably drops to 5ft 4.75. I think this is a greater chance than being anything over 5ft 5.
Helberg - 5ft 4.5 barely shorter than Galecki but close to 3 inches shy of Nayyar.
Bialik - Looks shorter than Helberg enough to notice. So weak 5ft 4 at best.
Rauch - 4ft 10.5 as she claims
Slim 6'1.5 said on 21/Feb/21
I can see him hitting 186cm like gatiss and cr7
Costner rock solid 6’1” but more 185cm

Parsons has potential to hit 188.5cm in the mornings

In my eyes he’s a strong 6’1 guy 👍
Steven Stinson said on 19/Feb/21
Rob what about these ranges:

Kunal Nayar around 171 cm
Rauch 149-149.5 cm
Galecki 164.5 - 165 cm
Cuoco around 167.5 cm
Jim Parsons nearer 186 than 185 cm
Hellberg around 164 cm
Bialik around 162 cm
Editor Rob
I wouldn't go over 6ft 1 for Jim, the more I've seen, the greater I think just 185 is likely. Helberg at times has seemed 164-5, but overall 164 could be close for him.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Feb/21
slim, this is another guy who may land in the same ballpark as Gatiss, Costner and Ronaldo. Could be a 188cm out of bed, 186cm evening
Torrinator said on 6/Feb/21
Tbh I wouldn't be surprised at all if this guy turned out like Blake Harrison if Rob met him in person. He struggles to look near 9 inches taller than Simon Helberg (although Helberg could be nearer 5ft 5). The difference seems more like 8 inches to me, plus with Jimmy Fallon he could look a bit under 6ft 1.
slim 6'1 said on 4/Feb/21
184.5 is even way too low, he’s a solid 6’1” guy I reckon even a flat 186cm is likelier the. 185cm. U can tell he’s 6’1” due to his proportions
slim 6'1 said on 17/Jan/21
I’ve watched enough Big Bang theory to conclude this dude is a strong 6’1” and 186cm
slim 6'1 said on 2/Jan/21
Nothing under this listing and could very well be 186cm 👍
Genau said on 4/Dec/20
184.5 and 186 are both arguable but 182 is a joke
Slim 6'1@ said on 16/Nov/20
185-186cm solid 6’1” dude
Mickie said on 7/Nov/20
Maybe we can get a 6'0.75" listing for Parsons? Weak 6'1" may be more plausible than a full one.
Joshbrecker said on 27/Oct/20
Needs a downgrade to 184 range
DTD said on 8/Oct/20
I'm actually surprised he's even 6 feet. When episodes of The Big Bang Theory contained Courtney Henggeler as a guest star, she always seemed taller. Sure, she wore heels, but even if she's 5'9" as some websites have claimed she shouldn't have been that much taller.

I think he is actually 6 foot 1 and a quatre,looks it proportionally
Kellamy said on 9/Aug/20
I met Jim in NYC and stood face to face about 2 feet away. I was kind of surprised that he wasn’t as tall as I’d imagined him to be. I’m 5’ 6” and he didn’t seem that much taller than me. Of course I was having a star struck moment so I could be remembering wrong.

Happy 47th birthday to Sheldon!
Oops I meant Jim Parsons! 🥳🥳🎂🎂 Can't believe he's 47 cause he always looked relatively young !
Sonnecker said on 11/Dec/19
I'd give him a quarter more...186 cm clean.
Yang (5 footer 8, 173) said on 12/Nov/19
@Dom, Agreed. Bad posture makes that person shorter than the other partner with same height with that person...
Pela said on 8/Nov/19
If he's 6'1, then what's happening here? Click Here
Dom5'11.5 said on 24/Oct/19
Bad posture makes him look shorter than he is when he is around people his height, but his lanky figure makes him look tall when he stand alone. (185cm) 6’1 sounds right when he stands up straight, looks close to kevin Costner
c-mo said on 12/Sep/19
lol at some comments ....are you guys serious ? 6'0 ? ...he looks an EASY 186cm ....below 185cm can not be possible .

out of bed 188cm , before bed 186cm (or slightly under) is how he looks . 1cm below that is arguable but anything below is a joke . one of my friends is 184cm so I know very well how 184cm looks and Jim seems taller than 184 ...let alone 6'0 flat
Yang (5 footer 8, 172-173) said on 1/Sep/19
He is 6ft IMO....
Mimi said on 20/May/19
I'm super going to miss Jim as Sheldon now that TBBT is over
Mimi said on 30/Mar/19
His slouch makes him look 6ft flat in the Big Bang Theory but I thinks if he stands with good posture he'll reach 6ft1 barefoot.
Mimi said on 24/Mar/19
Happy birthday to Sheldon Cooper!🎂🎂🎉 Oops I meant Jim Parsons. Can't believe he's 46 now. Still looks a good 6ft1 to me
Divalovro said on 27/Feb/19
I would give him 6ft1.25. Looks above 6ft on Big Bang theory but then again he is very slim so it could give him a taller appearance but seems around 6ft1
Mimi said on 14/Jan/19
He looks like a flat 185cm person to me.
Duffer 5ft 11 said on 4/Sep/18
Jim & Barack seem to have very similar proportions, so yeah Jim is probably 6'1" or a smidge over outta bed, dipping a tad below that at bed time.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 8/May/18
@Slim 186 If you're 186 now you're sure taller. Jim look at most a max 6'0 7/8 (185) flat i could buy and at times he look about 6'0.5" and nothing much over.
Dennis said on 4/May/18
Was on Big Bang Theory with Jerry O'Connell last night. Jerry towered over him so either Jerry O'Connell is a legit 6'3" or Jim Parsons needs to be downgraded.

Shorter than 6'1" Kevin Costner

A bit smaller than Mark Pellegrino according to this site, but many other sites say that Jim is taller than Mark Pellegrino by a little bit which I find pretty funny about this site.
5ft10guy said on 19/Feb/18
6ft flat for him
Michael Blanchard said on 16/Dec/17
A fraction over 6'1, maybe 6'1.5 / 6'1.25 just like (young) Schwarzy.
Slim 186 said on 13/Dec/17
Junior, editorrobs listings are spot on or they’re 1-2 Cm too high, but on a rare occasion rob can underlist like Christensen and Pine.

But most are listed correctly. And I can see 186 arguable for Jim, he looks similar to me.
Junior said on 30/Oct/17
I highly doubt that those celebrities rob did not met in real were listed 1-2cm higher than real height. Parsons look similar to Colin Hanks who doesn't look any higher than 6'0.5" next to some 5'11-5'11.5" listed actors.

Out of bed: 187-188cm
Before bed: 185-186cm

Solid 6ft1 guy at worst, I think a fraction over is still likely
******
I wouldent rule out 186(6'1.5") but the Big Bang theory cast is quite diminutive and makes jim look like a giant in comparison.

6'0.75, I guess, just looks it compared to the rest of the Big Bang cast, if rob saw him, a slight downgrade could happen.

cosnter edges him out and is probably 6 foot 1 flat today that makes this guy barely that height. I think obama would be 1 cm taller easy what do you think S.J.H
Ron said on 27/Apr/17
Ok Rob another question for ya, who would you believe to be taller Parsons or Obama? I think they are very similar what you think?
Editor Rob
both seem genuine 6ft 1 guys, I couldn't say who might be taller.
Cameron said on 3/Apr/17
@S.J.H I think Obama would just edge him out.
S.J.H said on 31/Mar/17
I would like to see parsons standing next to obama. Just curious about it :)
Danny183 said on 28/Mar/17
@alexitaly It's a bad picture - when you walk you behave like a wave, you're at times taller and shorter. This is likely a moment when Jim was at this tallest when walking and Costner at his lowest. In other scenes, when they stand still next to each other, Costner is visibly taller.

Looks shorter than Costner in Hidden Figures.
BigBang said on 12/Mar/17
His slim physique makes him look like taller, like 6-2, but i think he's around 6-1.
AlexItaly said on 11/Mar/17
In hidden figures, at about minute nine, he and six one costner walk side by side down a nasa corridor and parsons looks slightly taller. I still push for 186 cm. at 6'1.25

SomeRandomDude said on 27/Feb/17
Let's not forget his posture isn't the best. If he stood up straight he'd easily hit that 6'1"

kevin costner is half inch taller in the new movie they are in together. this guy is probably 184

I agree Teddy, 6ft at best.

Rob - an estimate of Bill Nye? Click Here

at least 5ft 11
Teddy said on 23/Dec/16
Why doesn't he look much taller than Jimmy Fallon? If Fallon is 5'11", Parsons looks at most 6'.

MC said on 22/Dec/16
Rob, do you consider Jim to be a solid 6ft1 guy?
Editor Rob
MC, I can feel he falls into strong 6ft 1 range at times, other times I think he's just around 6ft 1, an honest 6ft 1 though. I think his slender frame, and the fact that the other males on Big Bang Theory are relatively short, enhances his presence.
Anon said on 10/Dec/16
I think when he gave that estimate of 6 feet 2 inches, he can still hold over 6 feet 1 reasonably well!
AlexItaly said on 3/Dec/16
In the last episode of tbbt he was clearly taller than Cristopher Lloyd who is now around 6 even. I'm still pushing for 6'1.5.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Nov/16
Rob, which of these could you make a case for?

A) 189cm/187cm
B) 188.5cm/186.5cm
C) 188cm/186cm
D) 187.5cm/185.5cm
E) 187cm/185cm
F) 186.5cm/184.5cm
G) 186cm/184cm
Editor Rob
I think an honest D range is ok, having seen Kunal up close, he's taller than a guy like Big G, and with Parsons, I can't see him under 6ft 1 really...
AlexItaly said on 23/Nov/16
I think 186,5. Same height of Arnold at his peak. My guess. Parsons looks a bit taller than Classic 6'1 (schwimmer etc.)
S.J.H said on 1/Nov/16
Jim also equals to Jeffrey Dean Morgan , chris pine and zachary quinto. All 6'1
spainmen191cm said on 24/Oct/16
Rob, there is a possibility this guy is more 6ft0.5-75? I mean look at him with Jor Manganiello....

Editor Rob
I would say his head is slightly further away, I think about 6ft 1 is ok, at times I could see an argument below or above it slightly.
S.J.H said on 22/Oct/16
Jim parsons = colin hanks = kevin costner = karl urban = 6'1
Pedriscovery said on 25/Sep/16
I think if leonard nimoy is now 182cm ,parsons is easy 4cm tallest
pjk said on 29/Jul/16
This is a tricky one. After looking at a few photo's and watching big bang loads, i'd say 6 ft flat without shoes, or possibly 6'0.5". He looks 6 ft next to Manganiello and 6 ft - 6'0.5" next to zak in big bang.
His thin body shape, with longish legs gives a taller impression but next to taller people it doesn't. I have a friend like that. I would have sworn he was at least 6' 1" but we measured him and he was 6' midday which to me is 6 ft flat. I don't get the later in the day height as the average height. Especially considering if you take start of day and end of day heights you get mid day height, at least i did. cheers
Alex said on 2/Jul/16
Actually he looks 185 cm next to Manganiello
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Jun/16
@Rhonda: um...he looks 2in taller
spainmen191cm said on 12/Apr/16
Rob he was probably measured this at a doctor office with shoes on, so he claims an inch higher than he really is?
Editor Rob
this is a problem - when people give a height, they sometimes are indeed giving a shoe/sneaker height but think nothing of it.
Flyin said on 10/Apr/16
Definitely right. Not the easiest one as far taller than big bang cast and was majorly shorter than 6"7 Stephen merchant. Never around 183-188 actors, so difficult. I always thought 6"2, 2 inches over the 5"11 guy to the right.
Alex said on 9/Apr/16
183 barefoot, 185 cm with shoes
5ft10guy said on 15/Feb/16
6ft flat is best for him
charlie said on 2/Feb/16
But I'm smart said Bomer looks 1 inch shorter than Jim Parsons .I would say there is a 2 inch difference in height not 1 inch. A person at eye level is 5 inches in height. So he is listed at 5 foot 11.5 it would make sense Parson's is 6 1/2
S.J.H said on 31/Jan/16
He always leave 6'0 impression to me. Not sure he can even be 6'0.5
Micho said on 7/Jan/16
Any possibility of 6"2???
Rhonda said on 1/Nov/15
Bomer isn't 6ft. Rampage. He is smaller 180-181cm 5ft11. Nice try at inflation.
Alex said on 6/Oct/15
I think 186 is more accurate for him. His slender frame, flat hair and relatively little head make him appear a little smaller than he really is.
But, I'm smart said on 6/Oct/15
He looks an inch taller than 6' Bomer.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Sep/15
He looks 186cm w/h Bomer
spainmen191cm said on 29/Aug/15
Rob, is 6ft0.75 also possible?
Editor Rob
not sure, 6ft 1 I think is fine for him
Elias said on 28/Aug/15
@Ethan, In the video you post, we can see that Jim Parsons is 1-1,5 inch taller than Jimmy Fallon and around 1 inch taller than 6 foot Milles Teller. Yes, 185 cm is more accurate than 186 cm.
Ethan said on 22/Aug/15
Rob, look in the first 10 seconds of this video, Jimmy Fallon who you listed at 5'11.5 looks around the same height as Parsons if not taller...
Click Here
You even mentioned before that Fallon could look 6 feet at times, but if that is true then someone who is supposedly 6'1.25 (Parsons) would still look taller than Fallon here. Can Parsons get a downgrade?
Editor Rob
I think from all available over the years, roughly 6ft 1 is probably a reasonable mark to have him on.
Rudy Valentino said on 12/Aug/15
2 inches taller than Bill Nye the science guy.. on BBT.. Just saw the episode where he befriends him. Bill Nye is listed as 6 foot and 6'1" so JP is a legit 6'2" that's a fact.
pablo77bar(184cm) said on 8/Aug/15
Look this
Click Here
Rob,do you really think that he is at 6ft 1 range ? Don't look much more than 6ft flat here.Maybe 6ft 0.5 it's ok
Editor Rob
in that photo he looks a weak 6ft 1, but maybe it is amplifying a bit joe's head.
spainmem192cm said on 22/Jul/15
Rob do you think that this mark is his lowest? Or he could dip to a flat 6ft1 at night?
Editor Rob
I think there might be times he may well not measure much more than 6ft 1, but generally I would say he can hold a solid 6ft 1 feel. Maybe his frame helps that as well.
Jane said on 28/Jun/15
i'm not sure... the only time i see him is on TBBT, and the next tallest person on that cast is over a half foot shorter, which makes it really hard to estimate to the fraction of inches...
Triplescrew said on 6/Jun/15
6'0.5" is what he looked like w/ Conan.
Rhonda said on 4/Jun/15
That Jimmy Fallon vid is interesting, he looks only a faction taller at most. I certainly think he is 6ft to 6ft0.5 seems the most likely thanks for that Mr 5ft10guy very good proof you provide and backs what I have been saying for a long time.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/May/15
Skinny frame can make him look 6ft2
Scott179 said on 3/May/15
I think he's 6'1. Have seen a lot of BB episodes where the guys are all around Kaley Cuoco's height but he's clearly the tallest but not huge.
nethan vartstra said on 28/Apr/15
I thing he is 6ft 2 probley my dad is 6ft 5
Alex said on 21/Apr/15
185 cm. alan rickman. 181-179 sting (around 180). Parsons. Still another proof he is in the 186 zone. Click Here
5ft10guy said on 20/Apr/15
When you put Jim Parsons around tall guys you can really tell he's not 6ft1.Proof with the pictures I posted of him with Wiz Khalifa 6ft3.5 and Jimmy Fallon 5ft11.5. He looks exactly the same height as Fallon. But I'm being nice so I'll say 6ft is his lowest and highest is 6ft.1/2 but I really doubt he's that.
5ft10guy said on 20/Apr/15
@spainmen191cm
look how thick his sneakers are he's not even 6ft1 flat. He has like these thick running sneakers old people wear.He is only 6ft0-6ft.05 not even 6ft1 barefoot
Alex said on 18/Apr/15
Another evidence is the picture with nimoy.
Click Here

Considering nimoy at 182 cm., Parsons is a solid 186. Infact in the show he is taller than pretty much everyone and a few persons met his height and very few (people over 6'2) are taller than him. This is the classic height appearance a 186/187 person give.
alex said on 18/Apr/15
I think he is 185186 for sure,if not 187. He is not dwarfed in height by Patrick wade who is a solid 6'4. It s like young Arnold opposte to ferrigno. A weak 6'2 against a full 6'4 is clearly shorter but not dwarfed.
spainmen191cm said on 9/Apr/15
Rob, maybe 6ft 1 would be better? Look at him with those two solid 6ft 3 guys I show you in the videos, I think that the difference could be a bit more than 2 inches
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Apr/15
Great photo of him with both a strong and a weak 5ft11 guy. Really, if he's 6ft or less those two are 5ft9 range.

No less than 6ft1
spainmen191cm said on 7/Apr/15
@Editor Rob
Yeah the first time I saw him, I thought that he could be a bit over 6ft3, what do you think about his height, maybe 6ft 3.25 or 6ft 3.5?
Also the first boyfiend of Penny Kurt, is listed at 6 ft3 aswell on google but do you think that he could also be a little over that mark or not?

I wasn't sure of sneakers with jim parsons, but if they were equal he could clear 6ft 3.

hahaha 6'2, he´s 6'0 the most.
Rhonda said on 2/Apr/15
Lorne yes let's start by getting rid of the ridiculous 1/4". Let's vote... Ayes to the Right, the Noes to the Left:
And later another quarter inch could be gone. Maybe David Cameron's height. 6ft0.75"
Rhonda said on 2/Apr/15
Silent D, I think it is safe to say 6ft0.5 given all the evidence. What do yo think? Same as DJ Qualls who was nearest I've seen anyone look next to him.
jtm said on 28/Mar/15
2 inches shorter than richard t jones. 6'0 is his real height.
Lorne said on 24/Mar/15
Qualms is closer to 6'1 than 6ft, but yeah, Jim didn't seem taller, but that doesn't mean he isn't. I think he is a legit 6'1; the quarter inch is unnecessary, IMO.(not impossible, s).
Silent_D said on 19/Mar/15
Next to fallon, he was a little taller. Wiz didn't look close to 6 foot 4 next to fallon and parsons. I always thought he was 187cm but i think 185cm is about right. I know for a fact he is shorter than david letterman and craig ferguson. He looks more built now.
5ft10guy said on 17/Mar/15
He should be downgraded to 6ft flat this is totally wrong.Same height as Jimmy Fallon Wiz khalifa makes all these guys average height looking including Parsons who is 6ft flat if Wiz is not even 6ft4

Was just watching Conan and he looks 5'11.5-6'0 Max next to Conan.
Rhonda said on 18/Feb/15
Those are interesting photos Rob and cole, I agree with cole on the height estimates he does not once look 5cm taller, Victor in one or two photos holds his own to Parsons with just under a shade smaller and others Parsons looks two to three cm taller. Victor being 181-182cm. If Jim was 186cm I'd expect a bigger difference but as Cole says he could have the advantage and if he did have the advantage in some photos I'd espect some of him looking more taller. The range doesn't equate his stated 186cm.
cole said on 12/Feb/15
@Editor Rob: Yeah I've seen them. Jim looks taller, but I'm not quite sure what to make of those, are you? About 4 cm in the "Capital One" shot (although Jim might have an advantage in that one) and anything from a hair to 2/3 cm taller in some of the on stage ones.
cole said on 10/Feb/15
@Rhonda: The picture Rob has used is not the best, as it favours Kitsch and Bomer a little, but it's not bad, it gives you some idea. He looks pretty much 5 cm taller than Bomer and 6 cm taller than Kitsch in other pics from the same set as well. The footwear looks about the same, hard to tell if one would have much more than the others: Click Here

In your pic Bomer is leaning back and Quinto is leaning forward, adding height to Quinto.
Here's a few where you could say it's a case of Bomer looking 5'11 and Quinto looking 6'1:
Click Here
Click Here
Here's Quinto in sandals and Bomer in a decent sneaker: Click Here

I don't think Bomer is more than 5'11 flat if Quinto is a legit 6'1, you could say 6'1 flat is more likely for Parsons, but a solid 6'1 is more realistic than a solid 6ft.
Editor Rob
here's the photos of Jim with Victor Cruz who we know is 5ft 11 5/8ths.
Rhonda said on 23/Jan/15
Here is genuine 6ft1(185cm) Zachary Quinto next to Matt Bomer. Jim Parsons doesn't make the same height and so must be no more than 184cm.

Rhonda said on 23/Jan/15
On Craig Ferguson he said "I am 6ft too" twice, As in 'as well' in reply to are "are you 6ft 2 or 6ft too? he says 6ft too, the transcript of it on a website. He clearly isn't anywhere near 6ft2.
Rhonda said on 22/Jan/15
Cole - Do you think the picture above Rob has used is a good picture for judging height or not, in my opinion the angle is not right at top of head for good judgement but it is at Jim Parsons chin height where you can see a straight line across all three, plus we have no idea about what footwear each is wearing. In BBT Jim has the footwear advantage over his male co-stars who tend to wear converse.
Rhonda said on 22/Jan/15
Cole - You are entitled to your opinion as I am. Photo is not a distortion because it is a scene from BBT not a photo in the whole scene he is never more than two inches taller, certainly not nearly four. I just think you are way off, every visual on BBT points to sub 6ft1, such as door frames and actors and actresses in the show versus Jim. Leonard's mother is not far from him in height and she also is in Ghost Whispers with JLH and another guy in the show is 6ft1 and he looks much taller compared to here. DJ Qualls is same height as Jim Parsons on the show and he is 6ft or there abouts. Perhaps if you measured 6ft1.25 on your doorframe and add an inch for shoes and see how high that goes you can see Sheldon never reaches near that height. LeVar Burton he is 5ft7 was on recent episode, I swear Sheldon looked four inches taller. Watch it. I am not saying he is as small as 5ft11 but there are times he looks it. I can buy EzioAuditore711 claim of 6'0.25
cole said on 13/Jan/15
@Rhonda: I'm afraid that's quite the opposite of a "better picture", but I can see that there is no point in arguing with you. In order to be taken more seriously you must understand that a large amount of the pictures you use to argue are too distorted, therefore unusable as evidence. I advice you to spend some time on this page: Click Here

A better photo with Matt Bomer and Jim Parsons, again looking similar height, i.e under 6ft1 in fact under 6ft and under 5ft11.5 if Matt Bomer is 5ft11.25. I have no doubt Jim may measure 6ft1 in shoes or even 6ft1.25. On big bang theory his male co-stars all wear converse most of the time whereas Jim Parsons has shoes so he has the footwearadvantage, clearly next to Data(Brent Spiner, 5ft9.5) he is looking two centimetres to two inches inches taller.

@Rhonda:
The lowest you could argue for Parsons is 6'0.75/6'1 -

####
I and others can argue for a lower value quite easily based on DJ Qualls who appeared on the big bang theory and who is 6ft to 6ft0.5 max, and appeared the same height, I am more flexible than you as you are claiming he cannot be lower than a certain height, he must be X height, whereas I can see how he looks a range of heights which cannot be easy determined by his co-stars smaller statures.
evil said on 15/Oct/14
He makes the other actors of TBBT look pretty short, although they are not over 5'7
cole said on 7/Oct/14
@Rhonda: Nice pic there... Major John H. Distortion want's to see you in his office right away. Btw Lee Pace is nearer 6'4 than 6'3, his footwear is hidden and Jim is standing further back.
The lowest you could argue for Parsons is 6'0.75/6'1 - that much is clear seen that he's about 1.5in taller than 5'11.25/5'11.5 Zach Braff and near 2in taller than 5'11/5'11.25 Matt Bomer. Plus he's got an easy 8in on 5'5 Johnny Galecki when standing tall.
EzioAuditore711 said on 7/Sep/14
That's what I'm trying to say as well. Thank you, Lee.
Lee said on 6/Sep/14
184cm in my opinion - he might look tall on the show, but yeah every other actor on the series is short so it aint a big surprise that a guy who is tall'ish towers over them

his slim build also creates the illusion of being tall
EzioAuditore711 said on 31/Aug/14
And what about me? To me, he's definitely not tall.
EzioAuditore711 said on 29/Aug/14
Whatever. I still believe he's about 6'0.5'' tall. And BTW is 6'5'' or 6'6'' gigantic?
SaveUsY2J said on 28/Aug/14
I was never trying to argue he was over 6'1, but 6'0 he ain't. And no, I don't believe he's that tall simply because he has a skinny build. I believe he's that tall because he legitimately looks it with 5'11-5'11.5 listed guys.

Ezio, the part about my height wasn't directed at you, it was addressed to Phiba.
EzioAuditore711 said on 28/Aug/14
Maybe 6'0.25 is a bit harsh but Parsons is no taller than 6'1''. I'd say 6'0.5'' to 6'0.75'' MAX. His skinny build has fooled you BIG TIME. And why would I care how tall you are? You're still short to me.
SaveUsY2J said on 27/Aug/14
Phiba, last time I measured myself barefoot I was 182cm, and this was shortly after I turned 18 so a slight growth since then is likely. I had a housemate last year who claimed 6ft and was the exact same height as me. Also, I've met Jason Mewes whom Rob has also met and pegged at 5'11, and he was noticeably shorter than me in similar footwear. Don't pretend like you know my height better than I do myself.

Also, EzioAuditore711, it's truly tragic that your argument has now been distilled down to "I'm right and you're wrong. Nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh!" Victor Cruz has been measured just shy of 6ft barefoot, by the way.

Ultimately, you still lose, because the man who runs this site knows that this guy is no less than a legit 6'1, and that listing at the top of the page isn't budging no matter how much kicking and screaming there is on your part. Fin.
EzioAuditore711 said on 25/Aug/14
I'm right, ''SaveUsY2J'' is wrong. Rob, downgrade Jim Parsons to 6'0.25''.
phiba said on 25/Aug/14
Saveus , your probably 6'0 in shoes 5'11 real height (180cm.) That would this guy 6'0 flat feet around 6'1in shoes, now stop arguing

Maybe Cruz isn't 6 ft though. Have you thought about that?
SaveUsY2J said on 16/Aug/14

Hair or no hair, he's taller than Cruz. Also, you can see his shoes in the full body shots with Bomer and they're clearly not elevators. You're just grasping at straws now.
EzioAuditore711 said on 12/Aug/14
Lifts? Longer head?
SaveUsY2J said on 10/Aug/14
Riiight... Except he's got a flat hairstyle, certainly not the kind that would add a full inch of height. You're just fixated on trying to downgrade him and only seeing what you want to see. I've still yet to see an explanation from you as to how he has two inches on 5'11 Matt Bomer and is noticeably taller than 5'11.5 Zach Braff.
EzioAuditore711 said on 8/Aug/14
They were the same height. Jim just looked taller because of the hair. You just need glasses.
SaveUsY2J said on 8/Aug/14
I've watched the segment, and it didn't show me anything I didn't already know. Cruz looked a clear inch shorter throughout the entire segment when he and Parsons were equidistant from the camera. But you'll only see what you want to see.
EzioAuditore711 said on 7/Aug/14
Watch the ESPYS segment with Parsons and Cruz and you'll see. And also calm your ass down.
SaveUsY2J said on 6/Aug/14
I said "where he's not at an obvious disadvantage" Cruz is closer to the camera than him and standing with better posture. What part of that don't you understand?
EzioAuditore711 said on 5/Aug/14
Victor Cruz.
SaveUsY2J said on 4/Aug/14
I'm 6'0" so close enough to his height to be able to judge it in proximity to my own. I saw him again last week while he was outside on a cigarette break at work and he still looked an inch taller than me. If you still don't believe he's 6'1", look at him next to near 6'4" Steven Seagal and 5'8" Johnny Marr:

Click Here

Click Here

Again, I implore you; find me a photo anywhere of Parsons looking under 6'1" where he's not at an obvious disadvantage, because I'm straining to find any at the moment. As a 6-footer myself, I should know what one looks like, and this guy isn't that low. He has an easy two inches on 5'11" Matt Bomer and is noticeably taller than 5'11.5 Zach Braff in the photos posted below so I don't know how you can still argue 6ft flat, or even a ludicrous 5'11"
EzioAuditore711 said on 3/Aug/14
You can't really judge his height from a selfie. You can't see even their shoes. And BTW you keep saying he ''looks'' 6'1'' in person, have you measured him? And how tall are you?
SaveUsY2J said on 3/Aug/14
Didn't you read what I said? Cruz is nearer the camera and has better posture.

Again, I'll re-post this photo: Click Here The guy on the left looks an easy 6'1" in person, I went to school with him. Even with the camera angle favouring him slightly he's no taller than Parsons.
EzioAuditore711 said on 2/Aug/14
He has has hair! Of course he's gonna look taller! He's maybe half an inch taller than Cruz. MAX.

Parsons looks taller than Cruz even with loose posture and a camera disadvantage.
Editor Rob
forget about the height for a second, but are half masts back in fashion these days?
EzioAuditore711 said on 2/Aug/14
He ''looks'' taller because he has more hair. I think they are the same height. If you downgrade him 1 inch no one would complain.
EzioAuditore711 said on 1/Aug/14
Is Victor Cruz taller than 6ft barefoot? If not Parsons no more than a flat 6 foot.
Editor Rob
Cruz has a just under 6ft measurement...but from looking at photos I think Jim looks taller to me.
SaveUsY2J said on 1/Aug/14
EzioAuditore711, look at the photo I posted of him with a former schoolmate of mine who met him in London. That guy looks 6'1" in person for definite, and Parsons is no shorter than him. Not a chance he's as low as 5'11, that's lunacy.

I can't believe I'm defending his height so ardently considering I hate BBT, but there you go.
Chris said on 1/Aug/14
How much does he weigh? 155 pounds?

Door frames aren't a problem for me. I walk around in flip-flops. I think that Parsons looks to be about 6 feet tall, but not over. I'd say a strong 5'11'' with a bit heel and he's close to 6'1''. 6'2'' is absolutely impossible unless he's in lifts, which strangely enough hasn't been discussed yet. Is Jim Parsons a lift wearer? Certainly would explain the 6'1'',6'2'' claims.

The prove is with other 5ft10 people like Brent Spiner who Rob has for 5ft9.5 he has only two inches in him also.

Rhonda said on 10/Jul/14
@save us, I doubt very much those are 0.5 inches and I wouldn't call those dress shoes, they are casual not dress so more like over and inch judging the angle. As for camera angles, Sheldon has the advantage, because you see that table you know both the near side and far side are the same height but the picture looks like the far side has higher in the picture. He appears after another look 1 inch above her but he is leaning but she is not standing straight leg bent in causal pose, believe me he has maximum of 2 inches on her. The prove is with other 5ft10 people like Brent Spiner who Rob has for 5ft9.5 he has only two inches in him also.
Rhonda said on 8/Jul/14
I am 5ft2 Ezio, what height are you?
SaveUsY2J said on 8/Jul/14
@Rhonda- She's in Nike Air Max-type shoes which would give slightly over an inch of additional height, so about 0.5 more than those dress shoes he's in would add. If you subtracted that plus her camera and posture advantages, I think he'd have about three inches over her;
EzioAuditore711 said on 8/Jul/14
Thank you, Rhonda. I'm glad someone else sees the truth. BTW how tall are you?
Josh said on 7/Jul/14
He´s not over 6'0 after seeing Bouchard picture probably 5´11.5
Rhonda said on 6/Jul/14
He never looks 6ft2 sorry C but that is an impossibility. I've narrowed it down to 6ft flat to 6ft1. I'd say he is 184cm if I was to put a height for him, I could believe 6ft is more likely than 6ft2. His shoes with Bouchard aren't flat either, I think he has footwear advantage vs tennis shoes.
EzioAuditore711 said on 5/Jul/14
He doesn't look 6'2'' next to Bouchard. 6' flat is more likely.
SaveUsY2J said on 4/Jul/14
That Bouchard photo is worthless for height comparison. He's at every disadvantage imaginable- she's nearer the camera and has thicker footwear, plus he's leaning in. It proves nothing.

Thanks SaveUs, I posted two photos where they looked same height, I cannot see your first one but your second Parsons owns Bomer by two inches there. I wonder if lifts for Bomer in my photos or lifts for Parson in yours, who knows.

The Bouchard pic proves it! He's 5'11''. Maybe 5'11.5''-6' if stretched out.

@Rhonda: Proof that you can't trust one photo alone (and the second photo you've posted is worthless for height comparison, as they're not standing anywhere near close enough to each other to accurately compare) because in all of these photos Parsons has a good two inches on Bomer:

EzioAuditore711 said on 22/May/14
He's definitely closer to 5'10'' than he is to 6'2''. 6' is the absolute MAXIMUM he could look. He might be as low as 5'11''. His lean build seems to fool A LOT of people into thinking he's up to 2 inches taller than he actually is! Does he look 6'2'' next to 5'7'' Nayyar? I don't think so!

Rhonda said on 8/Apr/14
There are a couple of good pointers towards his height :- his head reaches the top of the bracket of the door in shoes and just under that with it shoes. I believe Ross from Friends reaches a similar height in shoes and many believe he is also slightly under 6ft1. Personally I think the absolute max he can be is a 6ft1 flat and the bare min he could be is 5ft11.5. I am going to say 6ft to 6ft0.5 would be my personal opinion on his height. I am trying to find the height of Gablehauser because Sheldon is similar height. Anyway the top of a bracket from a door frame is a good number of inches if he were 6ft1 with shoes he'd be taller next to door frame. MrGrim no way is he as small as 5ft10, Leonard's mother is that height and he is taller, assuming she is actually a genuine 5ft10 that is. There is nothing to point to such a low 5ft10 height for him. He looks a few inches more.

Jim parsons thrives on the fact that he Works with short cast members, so he can tell anyone that he is as he claims, 6'2". This is ridiculous since he is clearly shorter than Dj Qualls who is a legit 184 guy, and just by looking at Sheldon you can see that he is not even 6'1" imagine if hugh Jackman or Tom hiddleston would stand next to him, then his 6'2" claim would die on the spot
EzioAuditore711 said on 13/Mar/14
I'm 6'3'' and am a full head taller than somebody in the 5'5''- 5'6'' height range. If Kaley Cuoco is 5'6'' maybe 5'5'' and we assume Parsons is about 6'2'' she should be at about his lips. She isn't. Thus making him shorter than 6'2'' or 6'1'' for that matter. Plus he doesn't look a head taller than Galecki who's no more than 5'5'' and may be 5'4.5''. Just watch The Big Bang Theory.

Anywhere around 183-185 is good for him, he towers everyone in the show, but considering Nayyar is at max 171cm is a lot of difference. Since he is tall and skinny he looks taller, 183-184 for him is my bet.

Blaze most of the cast are sub 5ft6 so you'd tower over them like one of Penny's taller bofriends, taller than them even I think I searched and Some of Penny's boyfriends were in the 6ft3-4 range and towered over Sheldon.
Emily said on 19/Oct/13
He has a weird head shape and it's quite big too. 10 inches long?
Editor Rob
not sure it's quite that long, maybe 9.5ish
Blaze said on 3/Oct/13
I thought he was 6'2 since he completely towers the cast. wonder how I would look with the cast since I'm 6'5...
jim said on 13/Sep/13
I'd say 184cm. He's surrounded by tiny cast members and his skinny frame makes him look taller.
Balrog said on 10/Sep/13
183? Jesus Christ.
Viper said on 9/Sep/13
183cm at best
Lorne said on 30/Aug/13
Wasn't he listed 6' 1 flat? That's closer, he doesn't look taller than 6ft0.75in DJ Qualls.
HellBoundPower said on 8/Aug/13
If Jim is 6'1.25" DJ Quills is almost 6'2". He edged him out on The Big Bang Theory.
Viper said on 8/Aug/13
No way is he this tall.
spainmen said on 30/Jul/13
I would say 185 cms he gets towered by 190-191 cms pennys ex-boyfried zack

Jim Parsons with Matt Bomer listed as 5ft11.5 and Rob lists him as 5ft11.25 they look the same height in these photos, if not Matt Bomer probably pips him by a little.

Jim Parsons is 6ft to 6ft0.5, points of reference is Riki Lindhome who played Ramona Nowitzi is 5ft9 and he had 3 inches on her. He is currently in a play with Lee Pace who is 6ft3 and he has 2.5 to 3 inches on him. Christine Baranski who plays Leonard mother is 5ft10 she isnt far from his height.

He's about 6'0". He's just skinny which fools people into thinking he's slightly taller than he really is
Mike 181 said on 24/Apr/13
6"2 in shoes..
Lomax said on 14/Apr/13
Him and DJ qualls are the same in height on the episode
Emily said on 1/Apr/13
Btw, i don´t think short people look taller per se. It´s the physical build that creates the illusion of being taller. Mostly the length of the legs, if you have shorter legs than another person your same height, you´re gonna look shorter.
Emily said on 1/Apr/13
How long is his head? Just wondering...
jack bassmaster said on 25/Mar/13
yeah he is 6ft 1 maybe 6ft 1 1/2 but when he wears shoes he is every bit 6ft 2 look at the scottish guy ferguson who is 6ft 2 he was the same height as him
LOL said on 17/Mar/13

Today I did background on 'Big Bang Theory'.
Kunal (Raj) came right up us to put his drink on the counter.
He politley said 'excuse me' and wished us a 'good morning'.
When he was right in front of me he looked to be his listed height of 5'8".
Johnny (Leonard) walked by me and looked a little taller than his listed height of 5'5".
Then I saw he was wearing big boots.
Jim (Sheldon) walked by from a distance but looked about my height 6'1" if not just slightly taller, maybe 6'1.5"
Simon (Howard) I only saw from the bleachers.
When I watched them rehearsing from a tv monitor Johnny looked about the same height as Simon.
Since Johnny was wearing big boots and Simon I think converse sneakers that would mean Simon has around 1" on Johnny.
Didn't really get to see any of the girls.
Except Mayim (Amy) walked by us to go offstage when I was sitting.
Then Kaley was on the bleachers with Johnny thanking the audience for their participation.
They all seem very nice and I hope I get booked on the show again in the near future.

How is it a "myth"? It's basic perception, skinnier people always do look taller which is why it's accepted as being that way, you having a couple of people overinflate your height doesn't change that
bostonmike said on 15/Jan/13
It is a myth that people, who are thin, look taller than what they really are. I was 6'0" tall when I was in highschool and 175 lbs and people thought I was about 5'11". I am currently the same height but a 195 lbs and people think I'm 6'1" or 6'2". When your thicker, you look bigger. When you look bigger, you look taller. It's simple you idiots.
leonari said on 11/Jan/13
The guy always looks tall...cause he is.
del said on 10/Jan/13
Oy he's lanky so he looks taller (I'm 5'7 and people think I'm taller cause of it) but he's at least 6'1..if you know measurements and math, galecki is 5'5 which if parsons is 6'1 that's an 6 inches difference and that's apparent...I'm 6 inches taller than both my sisters and you can definetly tell, when I look at them I'm literally more than a head taller...if u watch them all together in a close scene, he's way above a head taller
Josh said on 9/Jan/13
looks around 6'0.5 (184 cm)

Funny that people are quoting the life sized cut outs- do you really think they get all six sigma with those? They could easily be an inch or so off.

Heights are barefeet estimates, derived from quotations, official websites, agency resumes, in person encounters with actors at conventions and pictures/films.

Other vital statistics like weight or shoe size measurements have been sourced from newspapers, books, resumes or social media.
