What do you think?
Editor Rob
He's got a footwear advantage, how much isn't as clear, but could be 1cm.

@Editor Rob,

This makes Justin 5'11.5", Right?

If Kyle Allen is 5'9.5" or if Justin is 5'11" flat then Allen is also 5'9" flat. But wait, Allen did look a little over 5'9" flat w/ Aaron Paul. So Justin's 181-2cm Range.

What do u think Rob?
Editor Rob
11.25 I can see possible.
FE 2 said on 24/Dec/22
@Editor Rob,

@Editor Rob,

Is 181cm a fair shout?

Can pull off 182cm @times, Solid 181cm guy overall.

What do u think Rob?
Editor Rob
There's a few who say 5ft 11 and change could be closer.
FrankAck said on 20/Oct/21
Looking at all evidences in this page, clearly the guy is 5'10" at best.
Andrea said on 14/Jul/21
For those who say he really is 6ft... See him with Terry O'Quinn on Lost: Click Here Now Justin is in converse, while Terry in work boots, but still...
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 10/Mar/21
Making no sense if he was as tall as Chow but one get listed 6'0 1/4 and him 5'11.
Colben said on 7/Aug/19
Thought he was taller but that's because he's skinny probably
robson said on 10/Sep/17
Classic 5'11 guy who claims 6ft for better outlook.Skinny built gives him "taller" appearance.
Junior said on 14/Aug/17
This guy is way taller than 5'11. I did give 6'0 a safe bet not lower.
1.76 meter Guy said on 18/Jul/17
Chatwin Is A Solid 1.79 Meter In My Perspective ...
S.J.H said on 8/Jun/17
I still believe Chatwin is at least 6'0
S.J.H said on 5/Apr/17
So Chow Yun Fat is only 5'11 as well. Capaldi must be be 5'9.75

-- Justin Chatwin's Height is 5ft 11.25in (181cm) --

Looks a solid 5'11er.
BT said on 23/Feb/17
5'11 is fine for him, no need for an upgrade. 5'11.25 is arguable but he's definitely not as tall as the average guess on this page would have it.

Put it this way 6'0.25 chow had drop 0.25 posture and 0.25 less dress shoe heel than chatwin. So in this those picture look like a 6'0.75 chatwin with a 6'0.25 chow but infact with all advantage from chatwin taken off they're supposed to be same height at 6'0.25 and extreme lowest for chatwin couldn't be lower than 6'0. 6'0-6'0.25 for chatwin is totally fair game. Other thing is chatwin had bigger head and an example usually 2 person with same height like a guy with smaller head leaving impression to looking taller than a guy with big head. But it's always the math that resulting truth.

Click Here look from head to head it looks like chatwin was 0.5" taller not same height as chow and way off to be shorter

@Editor Rob,

It's strange that Ed Helms has most of the 10+ votes at 5'11ish yet you list him as weak 6ft. While Justin's votes (that are 10+) are at 6'0ish and yet listed at just 5'11".

Is there a possible change to his listing?
Fe said on 26/Jan/17
@Editor Rob,

Those R some interesting pics S.J.H shared, but i doubt he's 6'1". Is he 6ft tho? well he can look it in shoes and he doesnt look much shorter than Chow (if not similar).
S.J.H said on 23/Jan/17
Rob,

I think you should look more on chatwin and consider upgrade him as the height doctor here you know it better than most of us. He doesn't look under 6'0.75 with chow yun fat and look 6'0.5 next to 6'3.5 steve howey. But can understand maybe chow drop a fraction posture there but chatwin is still slightly taller.

Click Here odd angle but chatwin still easily taller than 6'0.25 chow yun fat

Click Here odd angle but chatwin still easily taller than 6'0.25 chow yun fat

Click Here a little odd angle favor on 6'3.5 steve howey net to justin chatwin no way look 4.5' between them and it look 3inch

Click Here here chatwin doesn't look over 3" shorter than steve howey

Click Here proportionally look almost as tall as 6'1 stephen amell
Fe said on 21/Jan/17
@Editor Rob,

Do u think 181 possible for him?
Editor Rob
yes, I wouldn't rule it out.
Fe said on 20/Jan/17
@Editor Rob,

Since u Downgraded Chow yun fat, i still see 0.5-1inch max between the two and i have watch DB: Evolution 3 times. A Solid 5’11” range for Justin isnt impossible tho, I can't decide whether he's more likely 180 or 181 range?
BTW he's with Celebs that you've met like...

Paul Wesley
Click Here

James Masters
Click Here

He's still looks taller than Paul even when Paul has a shoe advantage and looks more than just 2 inches on Masters. Maybe there might b a chance of him being a bit over 5'11", but I still don't know yet?

What do u think Rob?
S.J.H said on 17/Jan/17
It's weir that rob leave justin chatwin height at 5'11 and chow yun fat at 6'0.25 but chatwin was really taller than chow by at least 0.25'
S.J.H said on 11/Jan/17
Josh said on 26/Dec/16

Justin chatwin had less footwear and he carry the baby he did not stand straight and you can see Peter Capaldi standing his fullest height 182cm. I could bet with you with same footwear and stand up straight posture justin chatwin easily beat Peter Capaldi by an inch. Chow yun fat might be 6'0.25 back then in dragon ballz premiere along chatwin. Justin chatwin is very close to 6'1 and most likely 6'0.5 by lowest. 5'11 is too low ball
TJE said on 27/Dec/16
I'd peg him at 181
Editor Rob
I think in the Dr Who episode he was in he had converse, so looked shorter than normal against Capaldi who must have had near 0.7 inch thicker footwear.
Josh said on 26/Dec/16
5'11" is just right. If Chatwin is 6'1" or more like these other people say, then Peter Capaldi needs to be upgraded from 5'11.5" to 6'2" since he's taller in the new Doctor Who special. And we know from previous Doctor Who episodes that Capaldi is shorter than 6'0.75" David Tennant.

@Editor Rob,

Are u sure that Chow is actually 1.5 inches taller than Chatwin?
Click Here

i think 90% of the pics of them together, i think the most they can b is only Half inch max. i don't think Chatwin is a lift wearer or i don't think Chow has lost much height at all at the time. Whats funny is that Chatwin looks taller next to Chow then what 181 listed Sean william Scott looked. But I'm still muddled up because I'm not sure if Chow is anything under 184cm or if Justin is near 6ft?

What's your thought on this Rob?
Editor Rob
he can look at times taller than 5ft 11 range, although he had a scene in Lost with Terry O'Quinn and I couldn't have said he looked the same height, but I can see how he looks 5ft 11.5 range at times. With a near 5ft 10 guy like Paul Wesley
S.J.H said on 15/Nov/16
Compress down hair and look the top of his ear to ear to 6'0.5 Chow Yun Fat we could see Justin Chatwin is still easily 6'1 and his not lift's wearer. 5'11 to 6'0 a joke

Click Here
S.J.H said on 6/Nov/16
He look to be a cm or 1/4 taller than chow yun fat. The worst under estimated guy here and more like 6'0.75 guy with all co-star not 5'11
S.J.H said on 17/Oct/16
Strange.. He look taller than 6'0.5 chow yun fat but rob listed him at 5'11 here. There is no way he is 4cm shorter than chow and even could look a taller than chow yun fat
Truth said on 5/Sep/16
he looks no taller than listed. Usually looks shorter with his large head and narrow shoulders, and overall small frame
S.J.H said on 28/Jul/16
Same height or even fraction taller than 6'0 chow yun fat yet justin chatwin get listed 5'11 here. LOL. Rob need to upgrade him by at least 1.25"
Josh said on 14/Jun/15
He's at least 5'11.75 or 6 ft on the dot. I think this is too low a listing for him.
Balrog said on 22/Jul/13
Now O'Quinn is 6'1'', Chatwin at 180 cm is fine but Masters didn't looked 5'9'' next to him.
JL#9 said on 8/Apr/13
I met Justin in L.A. Super nice guy! We have some mutual friends. Justin is nowhere near 5'11." He's more like 5'9." I have a really good feel for height because I play college basketball. I'm 6'4.25" flat and around 6'5.5" in my basketball shoes. I've got a comfortable 8 inches on Justin.
balrog said on 5/Dec/12
I think a slight upgrade would be okay. Looked 5'11.5'' next to Masters and also next to Terry O'Quinn in LOST.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 31/Jul/12
5'11.5 is not impossible but not over... He looks about 4 inches shorter than 6'3 Steve Howey...
Jake: 1.82 m--1.83 m--1.84 m said on 10/Jun/12
5ft11.5in (182 cm) Rob? I think he really does look near 6ft-- he get's 6ft 1in listings which are too high tho.
hey i know that guy said on 5/Jun/12
in person he seems shorter than 5-11, but the evidence is fairly clear that he really is in 180 cm range. funny how a lot of guys in the 5-9 to 5-11 range can seem off on their actual height. you don't see it as much with guys over 6 foot, or those under 5-8.
jake, 1.82 m said on 17/Sep/11
Could be 5ft11.5
Red said on 26/May/11
@Colin- Tom Cruise always wears gigantic lifts, you're forgetting that part.
Maras said on 18/Mar/11
Yeah, he's easily 5'11, I think 181cm would be even better. 182.5 in the morning, 180-180.5 in the evening ;p Not very tall, not short at all ;d, perfect height ;p

compare him to James Marsters, who's listed 5'9'' on this site
(and you can check that with a picture next to Rob)
The guy is 5'11, if not more
JellO said on 1/Feb/11
No way, though he is clearly a strong 5'11. Probably above 5'11.5 in the morning.
Tunabun said on 16/May/09
I was an Extra in DragonBall and I'm 100% sure of his height having been around him for 6 days.

Not only did I stand close to him on many occasions, I also was friends with his stand in for light & angle measurements. I am 5'10.75 and I am sure that Justin is about half an inch taller than me, at most 3/4 of an inch taller, as was his stand in. Shoes were pretty much negligible, I was wearing flat runners and he was wearing flat or ever so slightly elevated runners.

There is no way he is 6'0, there is also no way he is under 5'11, he doesn't slouch, has an extremely straight posture, as do I. So speculate where in the 5'11-6'0 range he resides, which we all know varies from morning to night, but rest assured he is within that range.

Also, we filmed both early morning and throughout the day (school scenes), and at night(party scenes) if that helps at all.

The photo with Klein is absolutely horrible,there is no way Chatwin is that tall...If Klein is really 6'1 that would make Chatwin something like 6'7 (which is impossible).
Obviousely Klein is sitted on something.
He is taller than Chatwin
AG said on 19/Mar/09
If he is really 5'11, he should be proud of himself, because he is the only 5'11 person who looks 6'1 in real life. But there is one truth that i mentioned about 5'11 guys, in real life they can easily look 6' or 6'1, with good posture and with nice shoes :)
xaoxio said on 17/Mar/09
Rob, look at new photos with Chatwin, Marsters and others from 10th March on editorial. I guess you'll have a lot of info for consideration. Is it time to list Justin taller?

Editor Rob
there is a chance he's taller yes. For the moment I ain't certain though
xaoxio said on 18/Feb/09
Rob, have you seen the latest photos with Justin Chatwin???
(Click Here)
Compare Justin to Chow Yun-Fat(they are almost the same height) and James Marsters(at least two inches taller). May be it's Justin's footwear but I'm almost sure that Justin is at least 5'11.25".
I'd appreciate your point of view, Rob. Waiting for more evidences?

Editor Rob
it's tough to say on shots that small.
xaoxio said on 18/Feb/09
but do pay attention to Justin's footwear, Rob. It seems big.
xaoxio said on 18/Feb/09
Rob, look at the latest photos with Justin Chatwin(February 17, 2009 in Taipei, China)with other celebrities.
It seems to me that we have to change Justin's height. What do you think?
xaoxio said on 2/Feb/09
so Rob, what you think about Justin's myspace I've posted before?

Editor Rob
I doubt it.
xaoxio said on 29/Jan/09
Rob, is this myspace real(Click Here).
If so, then, I guess, all questions are closed on this guy.

xaoxio said on 17/Sep/08
Rob, have a look at recent pictures of Justin with Anton Yelchin, please. It seems to me that Justin is a little bit closer to the camera then Anton but still the difference is at very least 2 inches.
What do you think?

Editor Rob
it looks about 3 on getty. Both have big hairstyles
RobertJ said on 16/Jan/08
He needs a downgrade.
xaoxio said on 7/Jan/08
you know guys and...girls(pardon ladies for mentioning you in the second place) BUT it seems to me that I know an answer to Justin's fluctuating height: this geezer does like huge boots to wear!
Besides that, he's often trying to stand as straight as possible - that's why he can make an illusion of beeing taller.
Watching "Invisible" I've got a strong feeling that this guy is a strong six-footer but then I've focused attention on his shoes and...geez...big-soled ones...
What a magic! One moment he looks about 1,25 inches shorter then 6'1.25"(?)Alex O'Loughlin and towers over tiny Chris Marquette(huge boots) and then he looks BARELY 5'10" with small bro' of a dead girl at the end of the movie(low-cut sneakers).
Well, Rob, what do you think about all this? Could it be a solution of a mystery?
Anonymous said on 2/Jan/08
i think he's in the 177 region at least
alexg said on 26/Dec/07
he didnt lok a lot taller than cruise in war of the worlds..
RobertJ said on 18/Nov/07
I don't know if this guy is 5'11'' rob, he was wearing huge boots in the invisible and only then did he look close to 6 feet. I'd bet money he's closer to 5'9''.
Caitlin said on 15/Nov/07
I've seen Justing a couple of times, a real cutie, I'm 5'7 and he's alot taller then me w/boots on, thus he's an easy 5'11, if taller.
xaoxio said on 14/Nov/07
it's weird. He gives an impresion of a taller guy but...I guess it's an illusion...
Anyway, Rob - do you consider this guy can be taller or what?

Editor Rob
last thing I remember him in is episode of Lost where he had few scenes with big terry o'quinn, but I don't know if he looked more than 180cm.
dmeyer said on 2/Aug/07
waths funny is that i had 1.4 in heels so 184 cm in shoes and he had 1 in New Balance he give me the impression he was taller than me
sam said on 2/Aug/07
saw him in a bunch of films. I think he's 5'10.5
Aaron said on 13/Jun/07
me says on 11/Dec/05
lol heres a little tip to find out his "size": fin out his shoe size... i.e. if hes a size 12.. divide that by 3 = 4.. and then multiply that by 2 = 8. that then would be his size ;). it also determines his height.. if he's a size 12 his height should range from 5'10'' to 6'0''...


I don't know how reliable that is. I wear a shoe size of 10 and I'm a strong 5'10.5". I agree that your body should kind of be proportional, but as you can see from my personal example shoe size should never have the last say in height.
dmeyer said on 20/May/07
he seemed taller than me when i saw him and i had bigger shoes so aleast 6 ft

He could be even shorter than this.

Here with 5'7"-ish Spielberg and Cruise, I'd say 5'10"-5'10.5:

And, under more research, even his fan site (Click Here) list him at 5'10"
