He looked close to bryan Cranstons height in Breaking Bad. I'd say he was a weak 5'10 or a strong 5'10 in his peak, and now hes 5'8 ish.

Mark Margolis would be a great addition Rob! He looks pretty tall with Michael Mando.

Mark is maybe 5'9 now and close to 5'11 in his prime. He looked taller than Giancarlo Esposito outside the show

Mark Margolis has a nice storied career going back to Scarface and would be a good addition, I could seem 5’10-5’11” range at peak with some height loss today of course. Funny his getting these Hispanic gangster parts a lot, IIRC he’s a Jewish New York stage actor.

Rob how tall would you say the guy who plays Hector Salamanca is? He is listed on Google as 5’ 11” but never seems to appear that tall on Better Call Saul next to Giancarlo Esposito Click Here, Click Here.

lost at least an inch now

As a fellow 5'7.5" guy, it's good to know that the Badass Mike Ehrmantraut , my favourite character of Breaking Bad/BCS is of my height. Makes me bit less insecure

Funny to see him pop up rewatching Gremlins, he was rather less authoritative back then lol. I think he's possibly heading for a low 5'7" with age but could look average with the shorter the average BCS and BB casts, which were short enough to make Cranston look relatively tall at times.

I'd reckon he stands 5'6.75" today. 5'8" flat back in his prime.

Was one of the other leads in Wiseguy. Not in the limelight anymore but he was a well-known actor in the 80's-90's. He's been listed 6ft in places.
Editor Rob
not seen enough of him really.
Sam said on 23/May/16
Actually having rewatched Breaking Bad I think he could have been near a solid 5'8" still and edged Aaron Paul most of the time.

@Editor Rob: How tall do you think Mark Margolis is/was? (plays Hector Salamanca). He's 76 years old now so he's probably lost a little bit.

@Andrea I Saw Micheal Mando Briefly at an expo event in 2012 he Looked Slightly shorter than me I'm More Or Less 5 ft 6 on the nose give or take a couple of millimeters.

5'5.5 For Micheal.

Big G maybe would agree with you? :)
I think even him, he would be more reasonable than you, though!
And i never insult people, i don't need to!
You never post pictures or videos, you just take a wild guess in every page!!!
You want to troll? Go to the general height page... That's the place for you ;)
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Mar/16
Because more people agree with me but more importantly I don't insult other posters unlike you...and sorry but just about every single page is polluted with your pathetic rants.
Andrea said on 21/Mar/16
Stop downgrading? Where did I downgrade here?
I did say i can't say anything about his peak but on BB and BCS he generally can look anywhere in 5'7-5'7.5 range, at times even almost 5'8! I said you can argue he looks just 5'7 flat at times but i wouldn't go lower than that! This is not called downgrading, but discussion :)
The fact is... that you should stop UPGRADING everyone! Almost every page is spammed with your silly estimates!
I wonder why Rob still allows you to post on this site...
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Mar/16
Stop downgrading Andrea. He did look around 5ft8 range in Wiseguy...today a bit under
Andrea said on 15/Mar/16
Thank you, Rob! I can't say anything about his peak but 5'7.5 is about right! You can certainly make an argument for 5'7 flat at times, though! He can look near 2 inches smaller than Bob but again it's not impossible that Bob is 176...
Editor Rob
he definitely looks a guy who was taller in his 30's compared to recent years.
Sam said on 14/Mar/16
Looked similar height to Aaron Paul and Giancarlo Esposito on Breaking Bad as I recall, in stills Paul actually looks to edge him. These guys and Hank give Cranston a comparatively tall presence on that show, Badger is the only major character I recall that was a genuinely tall guy in that cast.
