Johnny Depp Height
Johnny Depp height: 5 ft 9 in (175 cm)

US Actor from Pirates of the Caribbean and Secret Window. One interviewer clearly thought he wasn't the 5ft 10 Depp has always got listed at (and was listed here at that height): "Its strange because although Johnny Depp is actually only 5' 7", he gives the illusion of being really tall." - Sometimes Depp can appear shorter.

Aratirion disappeared along with Glenn, strange uh??
UNK says on 2/Jul/08
I don't think Paradis is less than 5'3" and in most of the barefoot pics the ground slope looks like it's in her favor... puts Depp at 5'8", not 5'6".

If he were 5'6" Kate Moss would have towered over him in heels.. that's not the case she looked pretty even with him in heels... again putting him around 5'8" maybe slightly over on a good day.
wstat says on 2/Jul/08
UNK- I don't see why they would be angry if he was shorter. Still 5'7 and a dot over is definately right for my friend and I. Depp did seem to be a couple inches taller. If he wasn't the ground probably wasn't level (Most people don't pay attention to that really when they meet a celebrity. they're probably too astonished to see the celebrity to even care if the ground is level or not). I'd definately bet on 5 ft 9 for this man. 5 ft 10 and 5 ft 8 may both be a bit of a stretch. But I don't think he is shorter than 5 ft 9.

Hey guys and girls. I've found some even better photos and yes she is barefoot. There is a photo showing it here.

Really the pictures of him with Vanessa posted below don't show that much difference between them, but any theory of him beig under 5'8 is really hard to prove.

if there isn't much height difference between them, and she is 5'2 or 5'3, how does that put him at 5'8? a 5" difference in height is really noticeable.

even if he is slouching (which he doesn't look to be imo) there is no way he's more than 4" taller than her.

5'3 vanessa + 4" = 5'7 johnny.
5'2 (which is probably her actual height as most people add an inch) + 4" = 5'6.
Richard says on 1/Jul/08
5'6 is an exaggeration to the minimum.
I really think he's 5'8, no more than 5'8.25.
I always found Glen's height suspected since he said he was a bit more than 5'7 in the evening.
Really the pictures of him with Vanessa posted below don't show that much difference between them, but any theory of him beig under 5'8 is really hard to prove.
UNK says on 1/Jul/08
vsilzter - I saw those pics and agree, no more than 5'8" (ish) for Depp.

wstat - there is your answer as to why poeople get mad when he is called 5'10", because everyone ignores the evidence that he is probably shorter.. those are the best pics to judge Depp's height from that have been posted in a long time here.. and basically no one has commented on them.
Smith says on 1/Jul/08
How come Glenn is not on the site anymore ? I'm sorry, I didn't see that one coming ^^
vsilzter says on 30/Jun/08
Did anyone here even look at those photos a couple posts down?

Seriously, enough with the "well when I met him he was my same height and I'm 5'9" blah blah crap. He wears lifts! In those pics he is barefoot with Vanessa (who is 5'3 AT BEST, she probably exaggerates her height by an inch or so also, as most people do) and there is BARELY any height difference.

How can you look at those pics and honestly think this guy is 5'8+? You'd have to be delusional to think there's 5" of height difference between them, even if he is slouching. Again, they are both barefoot so you can see their TRUE height. This guy is 5'7 at absolute max, probably closer to 5'6. Case closed.
observer says on 30/Jun/08
In "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," Johnny Depp and Leo DiCaprio look like they're the same height.
GSP says on 29/Jun/08
Depp is 5'8-5'10. I tend to think slightly closer to 5'8. Nothing in this range would surprise me. Hes probably 5'8.75 exactly. Im biased though as that is basicaly my hieght. 5'9.5 morning and as low s 5'8.5 night. I usually look fairly average but definatly a little under avarage. Around a bunch of 6 foot plus ers I start looking short. I think 5'8.5-5'9.5 is the most elusive height range. You can easily look tallish in some situation or shortish in others depending on many factors.
wstat says on 29/Jun/08
wiart- oh, I didn't know. He's not on this site anyore.
wiart says on 29/Jun/08
wstat- glenn is no more on the site.thank god.
wstat says on 28/Jun/08
UNK, well i've been measured numerous times and know my height to be indisputably 5/7 (i'm a dot over maybe) and a half inch taller when I get up. A friend of mine whose my exact height met Depp. He says he's a couple inches taller. 5.9 seems dead on and maybe a dot over (at the most), but I don't beleive he's 5.10 quite. I'd recant if he actually was though.
P.S. I find it amazing that people get angry or annoyed that Depp may possibly be 5.10 because I don't see what the big deal about admitting it if he was. I bet if he was measured in the most brutally honest unbiased way to be 5.10, I bet some people would still make up excuses for this actor being shorter. I think the editor and Glenn has his height pegged in an unbiased manner. I agree with this one.
UNK says on 27/Jun/08
I agree anonymous.. if you look ereally close on the last pic I beleive you could see her toes.. she looks barefoot... which really make him look no more than 5'8" in those pics.
anonymous says on 26/Jun/08
UNK, it is reasonable to say she is barefoot. I'm sure those shots were in succession. I'd truly be surprised if he is under 5'8" or over 5'9.
UNK says on 26/Jun/08
wsata - "any time you see him with jay leno.. blah, blah" Your input is appreciated, but you seeing him on Jay Leno does nothing to prove is heitgh one way or the other.
wstat says on 26/Jun/08
Depp is a guy that is hard to pin down in terms of height. I do think he tends to slouch and look down when he walks to which can account for this. However, every time I see him on Jay Leno he appears to be 2 inches shorter than leno (with regular sneakers). Leno is 5'11 so Depp can't be any shorter than 5'9.
UNK says on 25/Jun/08
Great pics Amanda - You really can't tell if she is barefoot though. Even if she has sandals on he is not over 5'9" in those pics.

(Where did Glenn's pics with Depp go?)
Anonymous says on 24/Jun/08
Glenn will somehow discredit those photos. I wonder if glenn is really 5'7.5", 5'8", or whatever he claims. Depp was not taller than 5'8.25" barefoot when standing next to Glenn. The logical reason why he was taller than Glenn is because in one photo he was probably wearing lifts and in the other photo he had on huge heels and maybe a lift.

Wow I always thought he was taller.. lol. he's only 2 inches taler that me
nolid says on 20/Jun/08
there's been a lot of talk about loss of height through the day, I can speak of personal back problems from a car accident where on a good day 5'10" ,excellent day with stretch/inversionboard/swimming 5'11' and on horrible days 5'9"-1' (where I can't even get off the bed). point is posture we don't know the health history of celebs and their exercise/rehab habits. as such depp being in his 40's can have a big swing of hieght.
milky says on 17/Jun/08
It's been said before, but i have to agree with bruce_willis. The magical height chameleon size is 5'8.5-5'9.5ish and thin. I'm not even quite that, i'm 5.8.25 midday, 140 lbs, but when asked and i tell people i'm 5'8 most are surprised. the two i get most are "no, you're like 5'6-5'7 right?" from taller (6'2+) guy friends and "i always thought you were 5'10" from girls and average height guys. Theres just something about this height and build.

Can look short, can look relatively, in reality a bit under average. Depp city, imo, is 5.8-5.9.5.
glenn says on 17/Jun/08
james-then he grew or had th surgery.i believe and respect what you say,but im not wrong.
glenn says on 17/Jun/08
get over it.ha.you never met anyone.
trueheight says on 13/Jun/08
as to loss of height, I don't know if Glenn would want to measure, but if he wakes up 5'8 then he should be hovering just under 5'8 for the rest of day.

I have actually measured and have never lost more than .5in or 2cm. I have a two-hour daily commute - driving is especially hard on your lower spine. My workday typically lasts around 15hrs.
glenn says on 12/Jun/08
i meant the pic on left.
pamela says on 10/Jun/08
I met johnny depp Im 5'8'' and johnny was just a little shorter than me
anonymous says on 9/Jun/08
Depp so could be 5'10" and that is why Public Enemies cast 5'9" guys as fill ins? All the evidence suggests he isn't more than 5'9". Get over it glenn and aratirion.
glenn says on 7/Jun/08
good eye aratirion.people also ignore my pic on the right.he is clearly 5-10 there too.those were the days he looked 5-11ish too.
Aratirion says on 7/Jun/08
Yeah he can appear short, but after long discussions and a lot of pics and videos I finally come to the conclusion that he is more 5'10. So 1.77/78 ... Makes a 5'11 Orlando Bloom. (who is exactly 179.5; don't know daytime)

I was too much fixed on posture, thinking that Depp is 5'9. But he never looks smaller than that but sometimes taller so anything below is ridiculous and an inch over 5'9 sounds correct.
Daniel says on 7/Jun/08
If she is 5'5'', then he is at least 5'9'' judging from that picture.
UNK says on 6/Jun/08
That's why it's "similar" in height and not "exact" in height, Daniel. A 5'5" girl never looks similar in height to a solid 5'10" guy.. like I said though, not the best pic to go on.

However, funny you bring up her boots.. "enormous" sure.. but high heel doubtful, those kid of boots don't come in 5" stiletto heels.. and of course Depp has his meaty-heeled combat boots on.
Daniel says on 6/Jun/08
Similar in height? What the hell? He is slouching and still looks clearly taller than her. Please take a look at their shoulder's level difference. Besides, these boots she wears are enormous! Again, Depp is no less than 1.75m and no more than 1.78m, but I'm more inclined on 1.75m (5'9''), because he looked this height in all the seasons of 21 Jump Street he starred in.
Crush says on 5/Jun/08
I give Depp 176-177cm at most, but never full 5'10, closer to 5'9 anyway.
UNK says on 5/Jun/08

i agree.5-10 after amazing sleep.in the early 90s i thought he was good looking.not as much now.though i havnt seen him since 1997.
anthrax says on 4/Jun/08
he is 5.10 out of bed and that is that . glenn is like 5.8 with mc boots on and still way shorter than him. is everyone blind or what?.
is he as handsome as in the movies or is he ugly in real life????.
TOP GUN says on 3/Jun/08
my father and johnny depp are the same height. 5 ' 10. however, if my dad doesn't stand and sit properly, which he does a lot, he shrinks down to about about my height, 8.5. if he stands up straight up and you were to take a picture, it would look a lot like the pic glenn is in with JD on the right (of course, JD's head is leaning in a little bit so deduct about an inch).
UNK says on 3/Jun/08
Here is a pic of Depp and Moss looking similar in height. It's a bad pic, he is obviously taller than her ... but he is no more than 5'9".

Keep in mind, Glenn calls Moss 5'4".

Aratirion says on 3/Jun/08
Some recent stuff; He seemed taller than Steve Carell at the MTV Movie Awards; Carell is 5'9 - 5'10, right? Depp ain't smaller than 5'9 then. More 1.77 ...
Maybe a full 5'10 is a bit too much;
glenn says on 2/Jun/08
anything less than 5-8 in appearence for depp is absurd beyond belief.he is 5-10.looking shorter like all 5-10 celebs do.
glenn says on 2/Jun/08
are you fuking blind asshole? how is he barely taller than me in my pic?, you piece of garbage. colin is clearly leaning in alot.an obvious 5-11.i dont care what he says his height is.he is 5-11.i saw him in slip on moccasin type shoes,completly flat.the 2nd pic,im wearing boot with a heel on them.which i avoid wearing when meeting celebs.i bumped into him.i saw him all the time.and thats enough to make hysterics out of it? have you met him? or anybody? one inch makes it enough for you to act like a jackass.
Anonymous says on 2/Jun/08
He has appeared shorter than bruckheimer.
Aratirion says on 2/Jun/08
I have never seen a picture where he was equal in height with Moss, Bruckheimer nor with any legit 5'8er. The lowest I have seen him was about 5'8, and there are very rare pics of that; Most of the time he appears 5'9 and sometimes 5'10 (but still more often than 5'8); So between 5'9 and 5'10. I tend to think he is nearer to 5'9.
Shorter than Bruckheimer? I am very interested to see that ...
max says on 2/Jun/08
The thing about Depp is that he can appear to be 5'10 at times and he can also be appear 5'6. There are photos where he is equal height with kate moss whilst he is wearing big army boots. There are also pictures where he is shorter than bruckheimer. I personally dont think anyone will ever find sufficient evidence to downgrade him, however i think its a good idea to keep in mind that much can be done to increase height, however when a picture is found where your are shorter, it is a more accurate indication of true height. Often in this section many say that he has a quirky dress sense etc etc. What i find interesting is that his 'quirky' dress sense more often than not involves relatively his heeled shoes.

ur so cool
Anonymous says on 31/May/08
"colin farrell(5-11 actually)etc.they can look shorter than they are.due to posture or other reasons."

LOL how is he 5'11 when he is barely taller than you at 5'7.25 night height? He even claims 5'10 himself and is listed as such on his fansites. I dont see how/why you say all these stars are downgrading themselves by 1 inch...perhaps someone (ahem) is upgrading themselves by an inch...
UNK says on 29/May/08
He doesn't have to be 5'10" to be all over the place considering 5'11" is the tallest he's looked.. 5'9" with lifts and the "star persona" could easily get a guy to 5'11".
glenn says on 28/May/08
i thought he was 10 years older than me.i guess its 9 then.i agree with acg.he has to be 5-10 to be all over the place like that.
UNK says on 28/May/08
He will be 45 in June.. not 46.

Bogart_heel's theory is right on the money!
ACG says on 27/May/08
I personally believe Depp to be the biggest height enigma on the planet. Even more so than Sly.

I've seen a photo of him where he was visibly shorter than Jerry Bruckheimer, who is 5'6 max and gave glenn a 5'5 impression once.

Then again, I also saw a pic of him where he had at least a good couple inches on Jay Leno who is 5'11 min. and could be 6', if I'm not mistaken....

Let's be safe and say he's between 5'4 and 6'3- just kidding!!! But those two pics I speak of are nigh impossible to explain, especially when looked at side by side.

I do think Depp is most likely a full 5'10. Never a flat 5'9.
glenn says on 26/May/08
river phoenix was 5-10 as far as i know.5-11 tops.but i never saw the guy.as for your depp theory bogart heels,its possible.i agree.but i also think its possible he is 5-10,and has the typical 5-10 syndrome other actors have.stallone,colin farrell(5-11 actually)etc.they can look shorter than they are.due to posture or other reasons.
Richard says on 26/May/08
I saw pictures of the last Bond in which Marc Forster (director) looks pretty taller than Daniel Craig (listed at 5'10'')side to side (premiere pictures).
Well if you look at pictures from Finding Neverland premiere you will see that the difference between Forster and Depp is noticeably more than Forster and Craig's.
So my point is that Depp is 5ft8.5, no way he's close to 5ft10.
bogart_heels says on 25/May/08
OK, i've got the definitive. going back a few days on your comments. glenn & aratirion have hit on it. johnny was short in jump street -real height. became a big player - mixed with river phoenix/keanu reeves etc. (both 6ftish - 1 just under 1 just over) he discovered lifts & appeared taller. hit late 30s early 40s & became more confident in himself (he's johnny depp) so, sometimes didn't wear lifts - eg. the picture i posted with noel gallagher. but, sometimes, esp. while working, he'll wear lifts - eg. the public enemy shot to give him the height/confidence. so, he's somewhere between 5ft8.5 and 5ft9 - depending on time of day. and footwear can make him approaching 5ft11 - as good as 6ft, if the 6footer is wearing flats. i'm 5ft8 and (with clever footwear) i can appear a strong 5ft10 (i've even got away with 5ft11). i'm convinced he's 5ft9 1st thing AM, then 5ft8.5 the rest of the time.
anonymous says on 25/May/08
Glenn, my point is the older you get the more height you will lose. WTF do you not get about that. You don't get much do you. Weight is a factor. I'm not basing anything entirely on weight. Maybe you ought to reread what I wrote. Not to mention... you are talking about 6'1" and 5'9" guys. I am talking about 5'9" and 5'10.5" guys. You have boots that look like... who cares... that is idiotic to suggest you can compare the exterior and interior of Depp's boot without having it in front of you.
Aratirion says on 25/May/08
Please, don't base your calculation on weight. Depp is a pretty skinny guy and secondly you can't be sure that the weight is (still) correct. I know 6'1 people that are ligther than me and I'm 5'9 and have a pretty normal build.

Yes, you do lose height if you are on your feet. But you are usually taller after you wake up and smaller if you are up for a long time. But as Glenn wakes up at 3 pm he is quite at his top when meeting Depp. Height isn't affected by sun or daytime. It is just affected by how long you are on your feet. Sleeping or lying slow that process.

Boots; I have boots whose heel looks quite as the ones of Depps favourite 20 year old ones. And this heel is quite exactly 3cm. So barely over an inch. I don't think he has any lift inside those. Maybe in others.
glenn says on 25/May/08
older?? depp is 46 in june,im 36.the pics were taken in 1993 and 1996.i dont understand your point.
anonymous says on 23/May/08
Yes, you do lose atleast half of an inch because of the spine compacting due to gravity. That is only the average height lost. Glenn is older too. All you need is an hour or less on your feet and you will start shrinking. Aratirion, one can't defy gravity. I highly doubt any boots depp wears are under 1.25 inches. I still believe Depp is between 5'8" and 5'9" but not under 5'8" and not over 5'9". One reason why I don't believe he is over 5'9" is because his official weight is 155-165 lbs. or something like that. My family member is approximately 5'10.5" evening and 155lbs. max. He has much more build than Depp. It doesn't fit. My guess is that Depp is not under 5'8" but not over 5'9", and absolutely no more than 140-150lbs.
glenn says on 23/May/08
true.2 inches is too much.1.5 id say though at least.
Aratirion says on 23/May/08
Believe me, you don't loose that much height if you sleep or at least lie around somewhere during the day. So I think Glenn was a legit 5'8 on the right pic. Anyway, I don't think motor cycle boots give you that much, I'd say barely over an inch. Boots seem to give you less than you might expect. I'd say Johnnys Brasco boots gave him about 4 to 5cm. So 1 to 2cm heel advantage.
glenn says on 23/May/08
motor cycle boots.i dont know cm.so id say 2 inches at most.maybe a bit under actually.the pic on right was taken around 3pm.im 5-7.25 after midnight.i wake usually 3pm.
M.A.R.T.I.KO says on 22/May/08
unk- you make some sense . but i dont think johnny is under 5.8,5 anyway. glenn said that he was wearing boots too.
and one more thing, if glenn is 5.7 at night. that would make me think twice about what i wrotte above.so we need to ask him about that one.
glenn - what do u mean by mc boots??how many cm can they add to someones height??
glenn says on 22/May/08
actually i do have i broomstick up the ol arse in the pics.
glenn says on 21/May/08
you guys are all forgetting he is leaning in on both of my pics.and yes,i am wearing mc boots in the pic i believe.which i forgot about and is rare.

anonymous-assuming is the #1 cause of fights on this site.so cause depp is filming,that doesnt mean he comes to nyc on occasion on a sneak,when on a break? and furthermore depp has been filming in the states and my friends are there every step of the way.charlize is a tall women.not sure of her height but she is 5-9ish,5-10.

UNK says on 21/May/08
Glenn has said numerous times that he is 5'8" OUT of BED.. I don't care if he was laying down or not before he met Depp.. you start losing height right away.. to be fair you have to say that glenn was probably closer to 5'7.75" in the pics... Glenn has claimed that he has measured his evening height at times close to 5'7"... I thank Glenn for his honesty on that!

A lot of times people appear taller to you because you can't see the top of your own head... I am sure Johnny does appear taller than he actually is... but in these pics he is not much taller than Glenn at all! For all the "Johhny's leaning" or "Johnny's posture's bad in the pic"... I say this - Glenn certainly doesn't appear to be standing like he has a stick up his butt.. he looks pretty relaxed too.. and we know Johnny has the heel advantage.
Aratirion says on 21/May/08
Yeah, I wish it would be as easy as that. But your calculation could be quite wrong. Let's say his boots give him only 3cm (-3) and his leaning lets him appear 4cm smaller (which is possible; so +4) Then you got it like that: +4-3+3 = +4; add Glenns shoes and you have +6, which would make a 1.79 Depp.

Not that I think he is that height but theese calculations don't work as you could see with my example. Especially when we are debating about 3,4 cms in difference.
m.a.r.t.i.ko says on 21/May/08
i give johnny nothing more than 5.9 . i think glenn is not into boots(or am i wrong).while boots are favored by johnny. i think we can solve this if we :
1- noted that johnny is leaning wich gives him 2 cm .(+ev 2)
2- noted that johnny is has cowboy boots which gives him 4 more cm .(-ev 4)
3-in pics he looks taller than glenn by 3 cm.(+ev 3)
4- glenn is 5.8

so by simple math work it would look somthing like this:
johnny has only 1 posative cm(normal cm , not deu to lifts) .so johnny would be 174. and if we added that glenn might be wearing somthing that would make him taller by 2 cm.johnny might be 176 cm . which i really dont think is true.
glenn- its up to u bro. tell us what were you wearing???
Aratirion says on 21/May/08
Depp isn't 5'10 and Bloom isn't 5'11? You're so sure about that when not even Glenn, who has the most experience in height judging and has met those guys in person, is not sure about it? This is a discussion board so we discuss about heights. No one gives a 100% assurance that his opinion is the correct one.

To speak for myself; My only sources are pictures and videos. Judging from that I come to the estimate that he must be around 5'9. But another fact is, that Glenn says he and his friends see him at 5'10 or even 5'11, what is no miracle to me either. Therefore I absolutely confess that Glenn could be perfectly alright when he says Depp 5'10, Bloom 5'11. This doesn't have to mean that they are really this height. But they could be...
Anonymous says on 20/May/08
Exactly, they want to use pics when it is evidence to support their claims that Depp is 5'9" or more. Otherwise, pics are useless because Glenn has met him in person. I think it is rubbish that you laid down to get to 5'8". So immediately afterwards you were standing next to Depp? I highly doubt that. Glenn, how the hell do you have friends that see him all the time... he is constantly filming and when he isn't filming he is in France, and LA. Glenn still hasn't explained how Depp could be 5'10" if he is clearly shorter than Theron. Depp isn't 5'10" and Bloom isn't 5'11".
Aratirion says on 20/May/08
I said, that this could be the key. Meaning, this is part of the "solution". Pics are not the only source, right. That's why this comparison isn't the only thing you should base your opinion on. But it could be a part of it as there exist a lot of pics with them, standing together. But as long as we don't know Orlandos real height (I expect him to be about 5'10.5) it's just another thing that supports a 5'9.5 Depp - an important thing, but not the only key fact. If we knew his height exactly it could be the key for Depp, together with the fact that Glenn is exactly 5'8.
UNK says on 20/May/08
The "key to know Depp's height is to compare him to Orlando"???? That would be pics! When I brought up pics of other celebs to compare him to you guys pretty much ignored me and said "pics aren't the only source"... but pics with Orlando are "key"?
glenn says on 19/May/08
aratirion-that has to be the case then.
Aratirion says on 19/May/08
Glenn, I think Orlando wears boots or lifts very often. If he's wearing dress shoes I guess there's a little lift inside. The boots might be normal size. But it's not that hard to appear 6ft when you are 5'10.5.
glenn says on 19/May/08
im not sure why orlando looked 6ft to me the first couple of time s i saw him.he is 5-11 when he wakes at least.
Aratirion says on 18/May/08
Yeah, you're right, that could be the key. But I guess Bloom is about 5'10.5 and Depp 5'9.5. There's the inch difference and the middle of the debate about Depps height. Works together almost perfectly.
Cincy says on 18/May/08
Aratirion, I don't think Depp could have shrunk by the age of 45. Usually it's more in the late fifties and early sixties. Anyway, on the left pic I see a two inches difference and on the right, his shoulders are way over those of Glenn but they look almost at the same eye level. I think the key to know Depp's height is when you compare him to Bloom. I know Bloom has been measured at 179.5 cm, but I'm wondering if his agent or a relative just threw in a number like that, and they just drew a line where was the top of his head. If I refer to the newspaper articles that first appeared on this site, they said that Bloom was standing at 5'9,5''. I don't say that's his height but since the difference between him and Johnny on pictures isn't big, barely one inch, I believe that Bloom is closer to 5'10 than 5'11. I could buy 5'9,25'' for Depp and 5'10'' for Bloom.
glenn says on 17/May/08
aratirion-yeah,it strange how some pics on the site look different to what they really are.the scan? the crop? thanks for backing my claims that depp might be 5-10.
glenn says on 17/May/08
unk-there isnt anything to explain.celebs heights are all over the place.and you know that.
Aratirion says on 17/May/08
Because pics are not the only source to judge someones height. Glenn has met him in person, and if you look at the donnie brasco pic on glenns myspace account you can see that he looks quite a lot taller. 5'10 is not impossible. I just tend to think that he is more 1.76 or so, and has been 1.77 in earlier times and therefore rightfully claimed 5'10 (i'd do so too).
But you're right, with Moss and a lot of other celebs he looks 5'9. With Tim Burton he appears 5'10.
UNK says on 16/May/08
"Leaning in on 5'10"" - how so? Glenn ,You have said that Sean Penn and Jerry Bruck(whatever) are under 5'8"... you also have said a number of times that you think Kate Moss is 5'4" (which I don't believe)... how is Depp 5'10" when there are tons of pics of him looking the same or maybe an 1" topps of Jerry B and Sean P.. and if Moss is 5'4" - how do you explain that?
glenn says on 15/May/08
yes nate.i thought the same thing.
glenn says on 15/May/08
aratirion-yes,he looks shorter as of the last 10 years or so.could be many factors.or he was always 5-9.but im truly leaning in on 5-10 now.
UNK says on 15/May/08
He definitely appears 5'9" (if that) in the public enemy shoot.. and look at the footware they have him in...

Click Here

Also, there is no doubt that certain 5'9" guys could appear 5'11" and 5'7" (2" up or down).. if he were a true 5'10" he would have looke 6'0" with some of the footware her used to wear. I believe he wore lifts in the beginning of his movie career... he never looked more than 5'8"-5'9" on Jump street, then all of a sudden he's looking 5'10"/5'11"... then poof, right back to looking 5'8"/5'9".
Aratirion says on 15/May/08
We're just interested in height. I'd love Depp the same if he was 5'7 or 5'11, doesn't matter to me. It's just damn interesting how someone can actually appear 5'7 and the other day 5'11. If it's not interesting for you then it's ok, but let us talk about what we want to talk about. Shouldn't bother you man ...

@Glenn; Yeah, 5'10 is possible. But recently he appears smaller if you ask me. On the whole Public Enemies Shooting Pics he gives a constant impression of 5'9. I think, back then (90s,80s) he was, let's say 1.77 and therefore claimed rightfully 5'10. Nowadays he may have lost a cm and is 1.76 during the day and still a legit 5'9er (1.75 or something like that) in the evening. Could it be like that?
glenn says on 15/May/08
who is this jd moron? height isnt all the important to me genius.this is a website about pinpointing a celebs fluctuating height.i couldve sworn i saw jds name on the site before.what kind of an idiot posts on a site like this if it isnt important to them? whats next? he is going to read up on stamps?
JD says on 15/May/08
Why is height so important you? Height does not make a good actor. It's the passion for the art, of affecting lives. Don't place all your stock in such trivial things. JD
nate says on 14/May/08
Glenn, u think it possible that he used small lifts in the 90s then when he got older he decided he didn't care about his height anymore and stoped wearing them?
glenn says on 14/May/08
aratirion-im glad you agree with me on that.thats why i think 5-10 is possible cause he can look short and tall.which is the argument of all 5-10 men on the site.
glenn says on 14/May/08
the more i researched that poc costume guy,the less i think of him.that was my story.he was on the set,but he was not of any importance.he wanted to sound important.aratirion is right.whats the mystery? well ive seen orlando look 5-10.5 to 6ft.
Aratirion says on 14/May/08
@UNK; No, the POTC source didn't "measure" him at 5'9. He appeared 5'9 to them as he appears 5'9 most of the time to us. And, looking shorter than you actually are is extremely easy if you're 5'10.
Still I agree, I just can't see Depp being a legit 5'10er/1.78. For me 1.76 sounds most logical, 1.77 and 1.75 are two close second estimates. Everything else isn't really possible if you ask me.
UNK says on 14/May/08
I think Rob has him correct at 5'9"... with that said... let me remind you of what has been written on this board a number of times.

"You could easily make yourself taller, but it's hard to make yourself shorter"

Boots, lifts, whatever... who knows why he looked tall... but how do you explain all the pics of him looking short?

Glenn even said that he had a good source in the POTC custom design that measured him at 5'9". He looks 5'9" next to Bloom, Moss, The Stones, Theron... what's the big mystery?
Aratirion says on 14/May/08
@Glenn; Yeah, I agree; on the arrest pic he looked more than 5'11; But I still ask myself, how that was possible; I mean, he can look 5'11 also nowadays but most of the time not, back in the 90s he appeared 5'11 all the time. Boots doesn't seem to have changed, height not more than one cm. What do you think?
glenn says on 14/May/08
did everyone ignore the pic on the left? he is slouching big time.and on the right he is leaning in more than you think.
glenn says on 14/May/08
i dont agree wiht that unk.in the early 90s he looked strangely taller than usual.and i witnessed it.the arrest pic of him in nyc was my proof.
Aratirion says on 14/May/08
@UNK; Ok if Depp is 1.76 (my current favourite), then he'd be about 1.80,81 in Cuban heels. Glenn is in boots let's say 1.76. Exactly what the difference is like, if you ask me. On the left one, it's bad posture and a smaller heel, therefore Depp appears a little bit smaller. Indeed, he could be 5'10, but I think 1.75-77 is most accurate.
UNK says on 13/May/08
We know for sure that Depp was wearing 2" Cuban heels in that Brasco pic... and he really doesn't look a full 2" taller than Glenn. I know some of you will say posture, etc.. but Johnny's hair is giving him more height than Glenn's to make up for a slight difference in posture... and even if Glenn was wearing stnadard DM's Depp has a definite heel advantage.

I just don't see Depp being over 5'9" barefoot.. the times he looks tall is always due to his footware.
glenn says on 13/May/08
the more i think of it,i mightve had boots on too.which was rare.mc boots.he looked close to 5-11 that day.his boots seemed to assist him more.but ive seen him in those famous beat up boots look 5-11 as well.im not sayin he is 5-11.what im saying is he might be 5-10.
glenn says on 13/May/08
noel gallegher is in no way 5-6.i see him frequently.5-8 indeed.
UNK says on 13/May/08
That's exactly why I am asking Glenn how tall Depp appeared to him the day the Brosco pic above was taking.. he keeps takling about this 5'11" sighting, was it the Brasco day??
Aratirion says on 13/May/08
@bogart_heels; Johnny's looking pretty tall on that picture; 5'10 easily, if not more ... A great example of him appearing tall even in small shoes. But still the pic isn't good for comparison...
Aratirion says on 13/May/08
@Richard; Yeah, as I said, Johnny about 5'11 to 5'11.5, depends on the heel of the brasco boots; Glenn, in shoes, about 5'9. That's what I see too. Makes Depp 5'9 - 5'9.5 ...
Richard says on 13/May/08
I don't know what kind of shoes Glenn had on that special day (the Donnie Brasco pictures), but to me there's no more than 2 inches difference. And Johnny had cowboy boots on that day.
Aratirion says on 13/May/08
Exactly bruce_willis; That's exactly what I believe; If Depp is 1.76, then he is 1.79 in boots, which is just under 5'11. I totally agree with what you and Glenn say all the time. 5'7 is ridiculous. Still you can appear like that due to a special body, but at the same time you seem to be near 5'11.
@UNK; I guess 5'11. If he had his brasco boots on, that - I'd say - give him about 1,5 - 2 inches (bigger heel than his usual boots) he could appear 5'11 easily.
bogart_heels says on 13/May/08
don't know if this link'll work. just makes things even harder. kate moss (on here - 5ft5.75" ) noel gallagher (on here 5ft8 - though i've stood behind him and i'm certain no more than 5ft6). johnny depp's clearly taller than both, but by how much isn't clear - sloping road. what is clear is that he's got no heels on. gotta give him 5ft9. but a weird one, like jude law - people think anywhere from 5ft7-6ft.
Click Here
bruce_willis says on 12/May/08
I really do believe glenn when he says depp looked 5'11...
This might sound very weird, but my body is johnny depps body. My morning height is 5'9.6-7 and in my late evening/night height is 5'9.2, and in the middle of the day I am about 5'9.4-5. And my weight right now is 145 pounds.
90% percent of the people i talked to about my height estimates it from 5'10.5-6' and becomes really shocked when i tell them i'm about 5'9. Even my 5'7.5 ex-girlfriend who had been with be for 4 months kinda constanty everyday, didnt believe me when i told her i'm about 5'9, she said "no way, you are clearly taller, you are like 178-179 (5.10-10.5)".
The only ones who estimates my height lower than 5'9 is tall girls. There were this 2 girls in a party who were 5'9.5-5'10, we were talking and out of nowhere they said; dude you're kinda short.. youre about 5'7-5'8 right? :)

So when it comes to depp i really think he is 5'9, he just has that heightillusion type of a body just like me. He can look as short as 5'7 and as tall as 6'.
UNK says on 12/May/08
Glenn - How tall did Johnny appear to you on the set of Donnie Brasco the day the above right pic was taken?
glenn says on 10/May/08
i dont agree davey.when you have him in front of you lookin 5-11,you wonder.
Aratirion says on 10/May/08
I really welcom people posting here, but a single statement without a reason or a picture or a question or whatever in connection with your opinion isn't really interesting to read.
Davey says on 9/May/08
he is no way 5`10 comon peopel.The guy is 5`9 and pulls it off well.
glenn says on 9/May/08
girlygirl and anon v are right.and yes 5-10 is a magic height to be.you can look 6ft or 5-8.
Anon_V says on 9/May/08
5'9 - 5'10 is a very versatile height. Slump a little bit and you'll look much shorter, square your shoulders while standing tall and you'll look much taller. Johnny Depp is probably within this range. My husband is 5'10.5 and with horrible posture he looks much shorter. With athletic shoes, he looks easily 6 ft. It's a cool place to be.
Aratirion says on 9/May/08
What shoes did Johnny wear? His usual 1 - 1.5 inch heeled boots? Your husband was probably 5'11 in sandals (except they had a big sole; there are some with an inch sole), Johnny 5'10.5 in boots. Yep, the same estimate again, 5'9 - 5'9.5.
GirlyGirl says on 9/May/08
My husband is 5'10.5" at his most recent physical (pilot's license, supposedly has to be accurate to maintain license) -- we walked right by Johnny Depp and he was a hair shorter than my husband in sandals.
Daniel says on 8/May/08
I guess the real debate is between 5'9'' and 5'10'', id est, 1.75m - 1.78m
Aratirion says on 6/May/08
Please read again. No one here thinks he is actually 5'11. We're debating between 5'9 and 5'10 or let's say 5'8 and 5'10, which is, indeed a 2 inch difference. But it's a damn hard job to find an accurate height vor Johnny as he can LOOK 5'7 as well as 5'11.
GSP says on 6/May/08
"What?! 5'9" to 5'11"???? A man of 5'9" looks very different from a 5'11" guy. There's a BIG difference between those heights and if you were able to tell height, you would not allow for such a big range and the 5'9" wouldn't even be a possibility."

Its noticable but I wouldnt say its a HUGE difference. Its only 2 inches lol.
seika says on 30/Apr/08
i worked with JD about 20 yrs ago on 21 Jump St... i'm 5'6" he was only about an inch taller then me....
glenn says on 29/Apr/08
mimi read again.
mimi says on 29/Apr/08
"glenn says on 29/Apr/08:

he was.5-11.now im saying he is 5-11.im saying 5-10 is a great possiblity to me.5-9 a close second."

What?! 5'9" to 5'11"???? A man of 5'9" looks very different from a 5'11" guy. There's a BIG difference between those heights and if you were able to tell height, you would not allow for such a big range and the 5'9" wouldn't even be a possibility.
glenn says on 29/Apr/08
now im not saying he is 5-11 is what i meant to say.that women from 2 years ago,that disappeared from the site also saw him at 6ft actually,whenever she saw him.one magazine interview i read said "at nearly 6ft tall,depp is taller than one would think".a minute later i read he was "small and petite" in another magazine.perplexing.that would mean 5-10 for the middle ground.but some morons here dont realise the tall depp claims from people who actually met him.then wonder why i get angry at their one sided,weak statements without actually proving anything.i proved alot here and on this site.i apoligize for me words,not my actions here.got to nip it in the bud.so to speak.cause it gets old hat around here.
glenn says on 29/Apr/08
thanks richard.this site is for you from the mighty rob and im the one to take you into the world of celebs.heights.
glenn says on 29/Apr/08
unk-never insecure.your tone i didnt like.thats all.thats that.if i let people talk to me as if i was just an average joe here,id get stepped on and walked all over here.im not the average person.hell,i hung out with depp a few times.i dont discuss that.i dont discuss mutual friends we had.i studied him.cause i was shocked at how tall he was.5-11.now im saying he is 5-11.im saying 5-10 is a great possiblity to me.5-9 a close second.you dont get real stories and pictures from anyone else.
Aratirion says on 28/Apr/08
Yeah, sure, 5'11 is out of question as well as 5'7. I just wanted to explain that even 1.80 guys can sometimes be called short and appear 10cm smaller to some bad height judgers. Anyway, 5'8 and 5'10 ain't out of q. and I still tend to say that his real height is on the taller side of the middle, so probably 5'9.5/1.76. Sounds most logical to me.
Richard says on 28/Apr/08
By the way, great site, and we all should support and thank Glenn for his work in the search of the right heights!
Anyway I don't think there are so many celebrities you can tell about: "I thought he was a lot taller" when we happen to see them. Legends about Cruise being 5'5, Depp 5'7, Stallone 5'7 etc. remain legends in my opinion.
In my life I heard of Bogart being 5'4, Newman the same, and a lot of b******t about Cruise. Newspapers can be full of s***t.
Anyway I'm getting a lot of fun.
UNK says on 28/Apr/08
Not only girls, many people mis judge heights... it's not as easy as you would think.. footware, clothing, weight, hair, the general environment you are in at the time, persona, so many different factors come into play.

At this point 5'11" is out of the question for Depp, I think 5'7" is out too. There are far too many candid pics of Depp.. he has been around forever, it's obvious he is in the 5'9" range.

Glenn - All I was trying to do is remind people on this board that you are not the only one with an opinion and not the only one with information about his height... I still don't know why you attacked me.. I guess you are insecure.

Also, A lot of the rumors about Stallone and Cruise were created decades ago before digital cameras, the web, etc... It's mostly older people that can't get those rumors out of their head that think Stallone is only 5'7".
Richard says on 28/Apr/08
Aratirion you're completely right about girls not judging well. One of my female colleague is 5'7, 5'9 with heels and said in front of others: Richard is as tall as me... and I'm 5'10 1/2!!
I don't know what's wrong with her but I think she judges looking at proportions... I don't have square shoulders, and people with high shoulders are often considered to be taller than what they really are.. and that's my opinion. Even girls with high shoulders seem to be taller and that happens with this colleague of mine. So even if she has high shoulders and she doesn't say that she's taller than what is right for her, she condidered me to be the same height! I'm younger than her and this also can do a lot.
Aratirion says on 28/Apr/08
I don't wanna be unfair, but I have experienced that a lot of girls can't tell heights at all. Most of them are awfully bad in judging heights. A girl of my age, that I really like is about 5'5 (probably smaller) and she thought I was about as tall as her, although I'm 5'9! That's more than 4' difference if we wore the same footwear. And people that are not used to height - judging don't care about footwear either. Another thing is that there's no real average in some peoples mind. Whether you're small or tall, but rather anything inbetween.
If you consider all that, Depp could be 5'11 and would still be mistaken for 5'7!
glenn says on 27/Apr/08
why do people seem to forget that stallone also gets mistaken at 5-7,5-8?
glenn says on 27/Apr/08
thank you richard.
glenn says on 27/Apr/08
unk-what have you achieved except hot air?
Richard says on 27/Apr/08
Everyone has the right to express his point of view. For me Bloom is 179.5. Depp is 174,5. This is my opinion. And no doubt Glenn is able to say jack-ass things. But he has the right to do it.
UNK says on 27/Apr/08
"arrogant for sure.but rightfully so my man" What a jack-ass thing to say!
glenn says on 27/Apr/08
vegetable man is no vegetable.he speaks basic logic.people forget the evidence on top.both.yes,aratirion,that also could be possible.yeah rob,but maybe bloom is 5-11 out of bed.
anonymous says on 27/Apr/08
If you think 5'10" guys who are thin can be mistaken to be 5'7", you are an idiot. I'm 5'7" and have stood next to thin 5'10" guys and in no way, shape, or form has anyone thought they were 5'7" and I was 5'4". That is ridiculous to think. It is not just teenage girls who have said Depp is quite small. He is no taller than 5'9" and no less than 5'8".
Daniel says on 26/Apr/08
I agree with Glenn on 1.80m for Bloom, but I'm more inclined on 1.75m-1.76m for Depp.

[Editor Rob: we have an alledged measurement for Bloom at 5ft 10.66.]
Aratirion says on 26/Apr/08
Yep, that's true he would be a solid 2 inches taller if he stood straight on the right pic. But there he's wearing his Donnie Brasco boots I guess (I'm not sure if I remember correctly), which have a pretty big heel. So Glenn is about 5'9 in shoes (indeed, that's what it should be about) and Depp 5'11. As the heel is about 1.5' Depp would be 5'9.5 barefoot or let's say 1.76. This fits pretty well to a 1.79 Orlando Bloom and more importantly to what Glenn says. Is this what it could be about, Glenn?
vegetable man says on 26/Apr/08
I would put Depp at a solid 5'10 looking at these pics. In the second pic Glenn is standing up perfectly straight, and depp is leaning forwards a little. I think if Depp stood as straight as Glenn he'd be 2 inches taller.

The first pic tells the same tale.
glenn says on 26/Apr/08
immature,sure to most or some.arrogant for sure.but rightfully so my man.rightfully so.nobody on this site had my experiences.your tone is what got me.if you wouldve spoken to me nicer,i wouldnt have reacted that way.of course i err at times.not when i see celebs multiple times though.i repeated this endlessly.yes,i have facts.i dont study dvds and still like you do.now go peruse elsewhere on the site.
UNK says on 25/Apr/08
Glenn - You have become quite conceded and are acting immature! I simply said that you do not have "facts". You have an educated guess, more educated than others on here, but that doesn't mean there is not room for error.
glenn says on 25/Apr/08
thank you sven.you know the truth.
glenn says on 25/Apr/08
then let him ban me.dont ever talk to me like i dont know what im talking about.you should know that by now.if you met depp plenty of times and have proof pics,then you can talk to me in that tone.otherwise state your opinion on his height,not that others have met him too.where are their pics and contibutions?
UNK says on 25/Apr/08
Editor Rob is going to have to ban Glenn soon! What's with the aggressiveness Glenn? I can't believe you actually told me to "F off" because I stated that people are entitled to their opinions.

You are losin it man!

"Mind my own business"?? Are you joking??? This is a public forum, not a private Glenn board. And I didn't write anything about myself being "so sure" I wrote "how could any of you be so sure".

I didn't miss the point.. people below said they have met him! Or did you think you were the only one in the world that has met him???

Seriously Glenn, you are really taking the fun away from this site!
sven says on 25/Apr/08
i agree with glenn is impossible for depp beeing shorter than 5-9...he looks sometime 5-11,under 5-8...
glenn says on 25/Apr/08
unk-fuk off.mind your business.i saw him in all kinds of footwear and posture.film sets,hotel,clubs.all kinds of situations.yes,you are entitled to your opinions.but you missed the point.dont sound like your sure when you never met the guy.im through with you on the site.you shouldve minded your business.
UNK says on 24/Apr/08
Your opinion is your opinion, and you are entitled to it. But so is every one else! You have no facts... you are not the only one who has met him. The argument is basically over one inch, how could any of you be so sure?
glenn says on 24/Apr/08
oh and btw,bloom is 5-11.cause i said so.and depp is leaning in on the right pic.not standing straight enough in the other pic.im standing as straight as possible.broomstick up the arse.
glenn says on 24/Apr/08
im glad you have a life anonymous,but you have no name.my evidence of him being over 5-9 is my eyes and the accounts of my peers and friends.better than you looking at photos.of course he can look shorter.at times he can look 5-8.but thats what 5-10,5-11 men do.they are the basis of all arguments on the site(stallone,colin farrel etc).you dont have friends that are 5-10,5-11 that look 5-9 due to posture and or weight? i do.geez.dont bother arguing with me on celebs or music.cause youll never win.and i wont win subjects you know well.whatever they are.be it playstation,couch potatoing,weed,booze,whatever it is you excel at.maybe your a doctor.and yes,sure moron,stallone is pegged at 5-7,5-8 by the public when he is 5-10.75 in reality.people plain just cant tell height or exaggerate when theyre not as tall as expected.so yeah,i do think they mistake depp at 5-7.i wouldnt be so harsh on you if you didnt come out so senseless.if your not an expert,never be so sure.
glenn says on 23/Apr/08
im only 5-8.5 in shoes? huh? shouldnt it be 5-9 to 5-9.5..half inch soles arnt the norm.
anonymous says on 23/Apr/08
Glenn, first of all, I have a life. Secondly, official height is not necessarily obtained by a measurement. I have told you he isn't over 5'9" on many occasions. You have no evidence to suggest that Depp is taller than about 5'9". Do you really think people just so happen to mistake him to be small and 5'7". Frankly, that would be pretty hard to do if he is 5’9” or more with boots. The Donnie Brasco photo has Depp in bigger than normal boots and you don't know what was in them. He isn't much taller than you. You would mistake a 5'9" guy in boots to be 5'10" more so than 5'7". He is not taller than Theron. I've been told Orlando Bloom isn't as tall as he says he is by people who have been with him. There is so much more evidence to suggest he is not taller than 5'9". Not to mention they were casting 5’9” Depp guys for Public Enemies. The robber Depp is playing in that movie was 5’7”.
Aratirion says on 23/Apr/08
@anonymous: It does help; I stay in bed in the afternoon regularly for about 2 hours and it really helps. Normally you'd loose about three quarters of an inch and due to that method it's only about one cm. Really, just try it. So Glenn is about 5'8 barefoot and maybe 5'8.5 in shoes. Depp is taller than him. Visibly taller. I still say Depp ain't under 1.74 and definitely not over 1.77. He's somewhere inbetween. I guess 1.75.
glenn says on 23/Apr/08
im not talking to you nancy.you could believe what you want.as for you anonymous,get a life.if you never met the guy more than once,you shouldnt talk.his official height is 5-10 by the way and i think its very possible.dont ever fukin tell me he isnt over 5-9.you tell me pal,i think he isnt over 5-9.state your opinion.not like its fact.i have more evidence than you to state mine boldly.
Nancy says on 22/Apr/08
Oh, god, this is just too freaking weird... I didn't "MEASURE" him in Oshkosh... I am just 5'7 and he was the same height as me - we looked each other directly in the eye!... I met him, we stood and TALKED for a long time (as opposed to merely posing for a pic), and that is the IMPRESSION that I got... perhaps all of you should admit that your ideas are impressions, as well, and NONE of us are right... Sheesh!
anonymous says on 22/Apr/08
Dude, you are are insane if you think he was ever anything over 5'9". He didn't lose more than an inch at that age. You saw him many times... so what... what is your point. I know someone who was in the Kids. DEPP IS NOT OVER 5'9" and never was. There is no evidence to suggest he was. The only logical reason he could have appeared taller in the 90's is because he stopped caring about not being tall, and stopped caring about being a product of someone else. He is between 5'8"-5'9". Another thing, you are less than 5'8" in those photos. Aratirion said you slept or stayed off your feet to get to 5'8" but it doesn't take gravity long to compact the spine. If your morning height was 5'8", it doesn't matter what you did, you still shrank. Meh.
Aratirion says on 22/Apr/08
But it's really strange; Nowadays he can look 5'7 as often as back in the 90s 5'11. But still I tend to think that he hasn't really lost more than a cm. Maybe he was 1,77 back then and now 1,76. But 5'10/1.78 really is a bit too much. His built, the many 5'7 sightings and all those things are reason enough for me. And we must consider the fact that he's nearly always wearing boots, that give him about 3cm. And if he was 5'10 in the pics with Glenn he would have been taller than 5'11 in shoes and the difference to Glenn isn't that much. Not 2,5 inches, 2 the very most (on the right; 1,5 on the left I'd say).
glenn says on 22/Apr/08
really? you met him? or measured him?.i didnt measure him,but i know in the early 90s he was 5-11,because i saw him many times.so he had to be 5-10 then min.5-9 is the lowest he is now.
anonymous says on 21/Apr/08
Glenn, he is 5'8"-5'9".
glenn says on 21/Apr/08
he is 5-9 to 5-10.
Aratirion says on 21/Apr/08
I believe you that he can look 5'7 recently, especially on the Oshkosh/Public Enemies pics and the Fan-meeting pics but he is definitely not that height! What heels must he have had on the right pic with Glenn to appear that much taller? He looks about 5'10.5 to 5'11 in shoes (high boots indeed) if Glenn had casual footwear. If Depp was 5'7 this would mean that he had a 10cm lift that day! Not even Pitt wears that wired stuff and Johnny doesn't give a damn about his height, so he is more 5'9. (5'11 sightings, 5'7 sightings --> very possible: 5'9)

Exactly, watch the videos on youtube (johnny filming in oshkosh). You can ask the girls that posted the videos about his height.
Nancy says on 20/Apr/08
First of all, ALAN, Johnny WAS in Oshkosh on Monday, 04/14, and met with fans that night! Keep your insults to yourself if YOU don't know what YOU are talking about! I agree with Kimberly... I met Johnny in person Wednesday night in Oshkosh. I am 5'7, and he is exactly the same height as me, and of very small, slender build. He looks fabulous!!!
Anonymous says on 20/Apr/08
he looks about 5'9" ish to me
and
uh dijana...a woman thats 182 cm isnt really classified as a "real woman" either...sorry
Anonymous says on 20/Apr/08
I live in Oshkosh and he was there all week... I have seen him on 3 different nights, and I would agree he did seem to be small framed and he is HOT.
alan says on 18/Apr/08
kimberly you are deluted,yes they are filming public enemies in oshkosh ,but johnny hasnt been there yet i saw it on tv
Kimberly says on 17/Apr/08
Hello, I MET Johnny in person on Monday 4/14 he is filming in Oshkosh WI for the Public Enemies films, he is not thin, but he has a smaller build, he looks GREAT and he is not any taller than 5'7, I saw him in costume and street cloth's he looks healthy and HOT,
glenn says on 17/Apr/08
not needed to me anonymous.sense to you.
anonymous says on 16/Apr/08
Glenn, it makes perfect sense.
UNK says on 16/Apr/08
They definitely play games with Depp's footware in movies.. check out this pick of him filming his new movie.

Aratirion says on 16/Apr/08
Yep, we already had that one. I think Burton really is about 5'11 to 6' now. As the angle isn't perfect I'd say, Johnny looks about 5'8.5 there and is 5'9 most of the day.
glenn says on 16/Apr/08
xanax-great find.though i think i saw them before.cool to resurface them anyway.depp looks 5-8 there if burton is 5-11.i couldve sworn he was 6-2 back in the day.maybe it was boots.
glenn says on 16/Apr/08
what is the point of even posting that anonymous? didnt make sense to me.all i was saying is this is the skinniest i ever saw of him in my peers pics.thats all.no,i dont see him at all.but i do see just about everyone else and i am a authority on celebrity sightings and heights.what have you accomplished on the site? besides maybe studying dvd stills? im sure or i rather hope your not a bum like me in life,but on this site i can say what i please cause it isnt gossip rubbish.im sure my post will start a further argument with you.

I don't know Tim's height...
Aratirion says on 12/Apr/08
Hmm, for some reason my comment hasn't been posted; however ...

None of you guys said anything wrong, I didn't intend to make anyone angry. I just thought, that it doesn't really matter who's wrong or right, as we all agree he has been seen in a pretty skinny constitution recently. And as you said, we never met Johnny.
anonymous says on 11/Apr/08
Glenn, you act like you see this guy in person all the time. What does ‘us not having met him’ have to do with anything. We don't need to meet the guy to know that he is naturally thin. I mean come on dude. Glenn, you said, "he face is gaunt and sunken in". His face has always had that signature indentation because of the shape of his jaw. Yes, one can tell when he has gotten thinner just by that feature being more pronounced, but he has always had that feature, and has always been thin. I agree with GF that his weight fluctuates. I doubt it is a substantial amount though because he has a naturally thin body type. When the guy is clean shaven he doesn't look a day over mid to late 20's. In Finding Neverland he looked like he was in his early 20's. He will probably always just stay thin but loose muscle definition as he ages. I think that is the point Stench is making...
Aratirion says on 11/Apr/08
No, none of you guys said anything wrong. I just thought that it is not necessary to talk about the weight issue any longer as it doesn't change anything. And, as you correctly said, we haven't met him.
glenn says on 11/Apr/08
end what? what the fuk did i say that was so wrong?y.no doubt he can look great.but none of you ever met him nor recently as well.
glenn says on 11/Apr/08
stench had an attitude i see.talk about bad timing this jerkoff had today.messed with the wrong guy.
anonib says on 11/Apr/08
depp is a heel wearing dude. Glen looks like a converse or sneaker dude. Maybe you guys are the same height? maybe depp had some dress shoes or something.??
GF says on 10/Apr/08
He fluctuates a lot with weight. Watch "From Hell" then watch "Once Upon A Time In Mexico" 2 yrs later and you'll know what I mean.
Aratirion says on 10/Apr/08
Oh come on, let's just end this thing; I think we all agree that he has been seen in a pretty skinny constitution, no matter if he wasn't that skinny back in the ninties. He's got a cool body though and looks great for his age.
Stench says on 10/Apr/08
Indeed I'm talking about Johnny and not about you Glenn. I grew tired with some of your answers... We honestly don't care if you filled out in the last years.
Never heard of people getting skinnier when they are already skinny? Why does this sound so strange to you?
Stench says on 9/Apr/08
I mean in his case, having a skinny constitution and never getting fat.. as he's getting older his skin makes him loog skinnier than in the past
glenn says on 8/Apr/08
age? i filled out more.he gets skinnier when he was already skinny?
anonymous says on 8/Apr/08
Depp has always been really thin with sharp features so what exactly is Glenn talking about. He did use drugs in his early days and was even thinner then than he is now. You can see his jawline indentation in both of those photos. What are you talking about?
Stench says on 8/Apr/08
@ Glenn. The only reason why Johnny looks gaunt lately is because of his age! Everybody would be happy to have his skin at age 45 though. His constitution is skinny and now his age's taking over. But he still looks great at 45.
Right Leung.
Stench says on 8/Apr/08
Right Araitirion, that's I always been saying. At lest 175.5 for Johnny. 5'9 actors can look short on the big screen. The proof is with guys a bit over 5'9. Think Matt Damon (178) that in many movies you could say he's short. This makes Cruise (172 my estimate) a short guy for the common opinion. If 176 can look short, think 172...
Aratirion says on 8/Apr/08
@Daniel; That's right; 5'9 or let's say 1.76 is my personal estimate.
glenn says on 8/Apr/08
leung-you havnt seen him in person lately.he face is gaunt and sunken in.he looks sickely in some photos my peers have with him.they also complained to me.i havnt seen him since my pic on top.
Daniel says on 7/Apr/08
Yes, you could be right, Aratirion, but 4 to 5cm heel would only give him an advantage of 3 cm over regular shoes, so he can't be under 5'9'' at the very least.
Aratirion says on 7/Apr/08
@Daniel; I think in Donnie Brasco he had bigger boots than usually (and in other movies); I suppose with a 4 to 5 cm heel. Maybe Al Pacino is not a legit 5'6 anymore and wore smaller shoes.
glenn says on 7/Apr/08
thanks rich,but i think depp is a little taller.
Daniel says on 6/Apr/08
He did look tall (5'11'') on Donnie Brasco
Leung says on 6/Apr/08
Why are you people talking about Depp looking skinny, losing weight and fragile etc?

He is naturally thin frame but if you have a good look at him you will see that he is in good shape, low body fat and defined. I was looking at recent photos in a magazine and his arms are not big but he still has muscle definition. Depp looks great for 45, most people can only dream of staying youthful looking the way Depp has.
Spoons says on 6/Apr/08
What a shallow person you are, Dijana. I and I think it's very obvoius that it doesn't bother him in the least.

That was a really weird post all round.
