I am not against Leo being 6ft or 5'11 but the guy is clearly not. Just look at how much proof I've given. Then some guy comes along and says something like "Leo is 6ft. He's a big guy." Where's the proof? If you met him show some pictures.

i think leonardo is 5'11 and tom hanks is 6 feet. Mathew says on 5/Mar/10

Look at the beach photos... suspicious... I would say 5'11" is max derek d says on 1/Mar/10
In Shutter Island he was a varied 3 - 3.5 inches over Ruffalo while they are both wearing shoes. But, there is a scene where they are both barefoot (both are naked with only towels on them, so one can only assume they have no shoes on) and Leo all of a sudden seems to have only a solid 2 inches on 5'8.25 Mark Ruffalo. So a 5'10.5 - 5'11 Leo can't be ruled out either, its possible. Though IMO I think Leo is at least 5'11 flat (5'11.5 is very possible too) but I get the feeling he slips in small lifts for a slight boost sometimes. He never looks extremely tall but can appear anywhere from 5'11 to 6'1. Aleks says on 27/Feb/10
paul86 says on 26/Feb/10
He's clearly 6ft no more no less
No he's not. He slightly shorter than 6' Tom Hanks. DejaVu says on 27/Feb/10
I think he looks taller nowadays compared to what he looked before. He looks a solid 6 footer and hardly ever looks shorter. I think he wears subtle and small lifts to make him look taller these days. Spence says on 26/Feb/10
He is nowhere near 6'1 5'11/5'11.5 guys can easily look 6 or 6'1 at times. He is 181 to 182 paul86 says on 26/Feb/10
He's clearly 6ft no more no less Hughes says on 24/Feb/10
In Shutter Island he towered over Mark Ruffalo. But at the premiere they were almost similiar in height. The difference between them had greatly decreased. Just sIomething to think about. Jon says on 22/Feb/10
I was in "Shutter Island" with him (I'm one of the Nazis he shoots in a flashback sequence). I spent 4 days standing next to the guy, and he is taller than me (I'm 6' even) and is absolutely NOT "rake thin" anymore. He is broad in the shoulders and strongly built. I'd put him at 6'1" or so, and while he might get a boost from wearing boots, I was wearing boots as well, so any advantage there is negated. Bottom line, he's a pretty big guy.

All the peeps claiming DiCaprio is less than 5'11" are terribly wrong. He is 1.5 inches taller than Matt Damon who is 5'10".
Damon isn't 5'10". I agree on DiCaprio, he's not under 5'11". random says on 21/Feb/10
I saw him tonight in SoHo NY, and is for sure over 6 feet tall... dmeyer says on 21/Feb/10
from wath i saw he is aleast 5 ft 11 and max 5 ft 11.75 dmeyer says on 21/Feb/10
in person was a bit tzller than me but i had 0.4 in footwear 1 cm and he had 1.1 thats 2 cm footwear advantage plus he had a hat so i guess we might be the same if is taller it is by 0.25 in Phillip says on 20/Feb/10

In The Beach at 28:20 Leo looked slightly shorter than his 5'10 male co-star. hughes says on 18/Feb/10
James, The Beach 28:20. Leo looks slightly shorter or around the same height as his 5'10 male co-star (Guillaume Canet). hughes says on 18/Feb/10
In the movie The Beach his female co-star (Virginie Ledoyen) is 5'4-5'5 and Leo looks 4 or 5 inches taller than her. hughes says on 18/Feb/10
Watch the scene in Revolutionary Road when Leo and Kate are at the beach without any footwear on. The difference between them can't be more than 2-3 inches. 4 inches at the very most and that's pushing it. Just goes to show this guy wears some serious lifts. Don't get me wrong I'm actually a pretty huge fan of Leo and I think he's very talented. I just don't buy that he's 6ft. Or 5'11 for that matter. James says on 17/Feb/10

Try looking for pics of Leo when he is at barefoot at the beach. What really surprised me was that he looked almost the same height as Bar. hughes says on 16/Feb/10
Most people who say they saw Leo in person always say he's a big guy (6-6'1) but I think this is due to his choice of footwear. He is always wearing basketball shoes or boots both of which provide major lifts. Personally I think he is around 5'10. James says on 15/Feb/10

Wow I am changing my opinion on Leo after recent pics I believe he is my height or slightly above. I am 5'11.25 in the morning and about 5'10.75 at night so I am about 180 or 5'11. I think Leo is 5'11.5 morning and 5'11 flat night. He isn't more than 181 that is for sure. His thin frame is deceiving and also it make sense since Walken looked an inch taller in Catch Me if You Can. Downgrade time DejaVu says on 11/Feb/10
The thing is de niro is definitely not 5'8 these days. Leo looks 5'11 max in that photo. James says on 8/Feb/10

And the Sun also reported the reason Gisele Bundchen broke with Leo was (in her own words) "My ideal man has to be taller than me" although he claims 6ft as his height.
Goes to show you that 6ft is still kinda not that tall. Isabel says on 26/Jan/10
He looks like he grew from when he was really younger, some men don't stop growing until they're 23-24. I know I\\\\\\\'m right says on 24/Jan/10
Chris Walken was 6' in that move Catch Me If You Can. And Dicaprio was shorter. Maybe by an inch. Was he the same height as 5'11" Tom Hanks? Will hafta look. 191cm/252lbs says on 20/Jan/10

sPENCEЮ YOU obviously can't judge height at all, your absurd claim that Ruffalo looks 3.5 in under Leo in that photo clearly shows your unexistent understanding of photo angles, let alone your lack of knowledge about what an inch really is and what difference it makes. Let's just say if someone still thinks you are capable of making an accurate assesment,then it only proves me point of to those who have the eyes to assess,not make obnoxious claims. The diference, considering the angle is right around 2.5 inches(yes,one can assess it easily with hats on too,you just need to know how hats "work"). And ruffalos relazed posture does give leo a small advantage. EVERYONE who has met Leo,Frank2 and a few other fro mehre,all have stated 5'11 as the tallest,one dude a year ago or so did say 5'10,but leo was probably slouching or osmething.
It is a no-brainer that leo isn't taller than 5'11. it's been shown countless times next to dozens of people in dozens of situations. Djimon Hounsou dwarfed Leo in the world premieres of Blood diamond. Liam Neeson dwarfed him even more. Tom Hansk was a strong inch taller. And no Spence, Crowe was not one inch smaller,it shows you don't know what an inch of difference looks like. that there was half an inch(1.27cm) give or take a few mm.
Spence,there have been many true veterans of height on this forum, and even I am out of their league. I hoep you do realize that guys like you drive away all the credible and actual sources,who met many upon many upon many celebs themselves. Frank2 is gone now, and it's because of guys like you. This forum has lost all it's sources,except Rob himself,sicne this is his site. The heights you give to some of the actors here are mroe ludicruous than what i m d b gives, and that is saying osmething about the people here. Spence says on 18/Oct/09
I agree. He is a morning 6 footer and probably 182 throughout most of the day which in my book makes him a weak 6 foot. Valeri is way off base. He looked an inch taller than 5'10.5 Russell Crowe Original says on 16/Oct/09

Rufalo isn't quite a full 5'8.5 and to be honest Dicaprio only looks 179cm in Spences pic considering Mark has poorer posture.

With 5'8 5'8 1/2 Mark Ruffalo in Shutter Island. Most agree Ruffalo is not a full 5'9. But Leo is clearly 3 3 1/2 inches taller. Leo is just above 6 foot in the morning and probably a solid 182 throughout most of the day which in my book makes him 6 feet tall. These 5'11 flat claims are absurd James says on 4/Oct/09

He could potentially be 6ft. valeri says on 30/Sep/09
thanks man,you help me make my point. Stoodnextto\'em says on 28/Sep/09
I've stood next to him at a play in London, UK. He's about 5'11". I'm 6'1", so I could gauge his height fairly accurately. valeri says on 25/Sep/09
Also Spence,I find it very funyn how you say I donwgrade people.First of all,this is a discussion board of heights.the whole POINT is to discuss it as much as possible.If we jsut all decided that he is 5'11.5 like he is here right now,then there woudl be no forum at all would it.Secondly,I can firmly say the opposite,you overestimate people.I hope you read my last posts,that were to you specifically.About you wanting to believe he is 6ft and claiming this laughable "case closed".You did the same now,only this tiem claiming I downgrade heh.Same menaing behind thsoe words though.I seem to strike a chord with claiming Leo is not 5'11.5 valeri says on 25/Sep/09
Spence,Crowe looked a flat 5'10 next ot 6'1.5 Ben Affleck in state of play.In some movies he has worn lifts as well.He might be 5'10.25 as I said,but 5'10 is much mroe likely.Remember that fiasco a few years back when Crowe made the msitake of taking off his shoes at a party and Bruckheimer tellnig hi mto put the hsoes back on,because he is blowing his cover. leo has been proven a million times to being a flat 5'11 and no more,yet some people refuse to see the proof from 1996-2009,where he has consistently looked 5'11 at most.hounsou,who is only 6'2-6'2.5 towered Leo,Liam Neeson towered him by 5 inches back in 2002.Tom Hanks is a solid 1 inch taller than Leo,possibly a bit more even.He is afrim 2 inches under Day-Lewis.Movies liek Revolutonary road show it blatantly.in body of lies,6'1 flat mark Strong was a firm 2 inches taller than Leo as well. Even if you deny the proof of Crowe,you can jsut see the proof of Leo over the years being 5'11 and then see the difference of Crowe with leo. 0.75in there,if leo is a full 5'11,then Crowe is 5'10.25,but he is not tall enough to look 5'10.5. With lifts or cowboy boots he can ofcourse pull off a 6ft guy next to 6'0.5-6'1 Denzel Washington. Hugh 191cm says on 25/Sep/09
182-183cm is bang on. Spence says on 24/Sep/09
Valeri you need to stop downgrading everyone. Russell Crowe is probaly a 180 cm morning guy and 179 throughout most of the day so I would peg him at around 5'10 1/2. Most of the evidence supports this. There is no way in hell you can believe Russell Crowe is a flat 5'10. In those pics that were posted earlier Leo looks about 3/4 of an inch taller if he stands straighter. Leo is a morning 183 and is probaly 181/182 throughout most of the day. valeri says on 24/Sep/09
Look where the top of the head ends.The difference might be as little as half an inch. In that case,Leo is 5'10.75,since Crowe is not 5'10.5,not quite. 5'10.25 is possible, but more likely than not 5'10 flat.
These are very revealing photos,both from the side as well as upfront. Look at the shoulder levels.
Particularly look at shots(link provided by Josh.J) no:
#83150265
#83139724
#83757754
83138575
Look at both where the top of the head ends(no #83139724 only shows 0.25 difference even,but that's only 1 photo) The #83757754 photo shows them being the same, but Leo is just leaning in ever so slightly,even though he's closer to the camera a bit. The 83138575 and #83150265 show a difference of 0.5(max 0.75in) and that is both comapring the shoulder level and top of the head and eye level,all 3 parameters show the consistent 0.5-0.75in difference. And I hope you knwo that when comparing the shoulder level you DON'T compare the shoulders which are against one another. You look at the left shoulder of both and right shoulder of both. valeri says on 24/Sep/09
Josh.Those shots only illustrate the same difference they had i nBody of Lies. The difference there is 0.5-0.75 inches and Crowe happens to be 5'10.5 at most.So Leo, judging by these,and assuming he isn't wearing lifts here as he usually doesn't at premieres, looks 180cm(5'11) I personally think he might even be 5'10.75,but whether I'm right or wrong is hard to find out,since in order to know there would have to be a verified 5'10 flat or 5'11 flat or 5'10.5 flat guy standing with the exact same posture and both him and Leo wearing same 1.25 inch shoes. Although I'm 99.9% sure that Crowe is a flat 5'10 spot on,I can't be fully confident,but assuming he is and assuming Leo isn't sporting bigger shoes than Crowe(most formal shoes are always 1.25in) then it is safe to say that leo is 5'10.75 and not 5'11(for what it's worth). Although quarter of an inch might seem a small margin to you, outside The U.S cecntimeters are used and 0.25 inches is 0.63.5(~0.64)CM, which is noticeable under further inspection. But for it to be noticeable both have to sport formal shoes and have the same posture.Although the postures for Dicaprio and Crowe are quite similar in these shots, we still don't know if Leo is wearing bigger heels or not(I highly doubt it though).So quite same postures,assuming same footwear, it still leaves us with that .01% chance of Crowe being slightly taller than a flat 5'10". If Crowe indeed is 5'10.25",then Leo does seem to be 5'11, but certainly not 181cm(5'11.25). The ones who can judge height will notice that the difference there is not 1 inch,it is less.It is either 0.5 or 0.75,but no more.

he's a link to a bunch of pics of leo and russel crowe. he only looks slightly taller. i would put him at 181cm Frank2 says on 22/Sep/09
"James says on 14/Sep/09
Frank2 how was his posture around you?
Frank2 I have been meaning to ask in cm are you 180 or 181cm? Basicly 180cm is a flat 5'11 and 181cm is 5'11 1/4."
180 cm. In the morning I'm closer to 180.5. or 5'11.2". But soon after I settle at 180. If I lift heavy stuff, I can drop down to 5'10.9". My doctor has warned me that due to a disc in my lower spine that is degenerating, I could end up with a collapsed disc and then lose height. I could lose as much as an inch. Plus suffer horrible pain. So I try not to lift anything heavy and do stretching exercises. valeri says on 22/Sep/09
Also,anyone claiming "case closed" can never be taken seriosuly by anybody.If you haven't measured him,then you have no idea really. Rather than blindly believe what you want to believe,as it seems you WANT to believe Dicaprio is 6ft because he himself stated that,rather open your eyes to the mass influx of evidence supporting 5'11 and not thsoe rare occasions of 6ft and listen to people who have been in the business for many years and have seen Leo numerous times and claim he is 5'11(Frank2 being one) valeri says on 22/Sep/09
So Spence,who is really grasping at straws here,when Leo has been seen looking 5'11 many times,next ot Spielberg and Hanks,next to Hounsou who towered over Leo at the European premieres.Looked a flat 5'11 next to Damon(and only if you think he is 5'9.5-5'9.75 as Rob states Damon being),but htere was Wahlberg there and Nicholson too,al lstanding in al ine next to each other,shoulder to shoulder,with similar postures. Nicholson looked a strong 5'8 there,possibly even 5'8.5,Wahlberg looked a strong 5'7.5,possibly 5'8. Leo didn't look 6ft at all next to any of these actors and directors over the years. Also Liam Neeson dwarfed Leo back in 2002,he looked 4.5 inches taller,and had a lousy posture at that whilst Leo had a great posture.I'll try to find all these photos when I have more time on my hands.meanwhile, your case closed Spence is completely laughable. As far as Al Gore goes,he has lsot considerable height at this point and you never know what Leo wears with him. valeri says on 22/Sep/09
Spence. are you kidding me ? In most of his movies nowadays he looks a flat 5'11. Revolutionary road looked 5'11 at most,gave an illusion of 5'10 in many scenes. Same difference with Winslet as in Titanic.in both movies she wore reasonably high heels. In body of Lies he was barely taller than 5'10-5'10.5 Crowe. In Shutter Island stills he looks only 1.5-2inches taller than Ben Kingsley,and only 3.5-4 inches taller than Mark Ruffalo. in Aviator he was playing Howard Hughes,a 6'4 guy,he also confessed on wearing lifts for that movie.(which makes sense to better fit the character. In Gangs of New york he looked 2 inches under 6'1 Day-Lewis. In the departed he looked a flat 5'11 again,in both the prison scenes and next to Anthony Anderson and 5'9 matt Damon(Frank,is Damon over or under 5'9?) he looked no more than 5'11 again. For Catch me if you can with tom Hanks he wore custo mshoes with a 1-inch lift built in,almost equaling Tom Hanks thansk to that. In Blood Diamond oyu clearly saw the combat boots he was wearing there,where as Hounsou was wearing sandals throughout the movie.that gave him a 2 inch advantage making him 6'1 in those shoes and Hounsou barely getting anything out of his thin sandals at 6'2-6'2.5.
In inception if he isn't wearing any lfits and it seems Leo only wears them in movies that seem to demand it at least somewhat(exception being CMIYC) because in modern day movies such as Departed,Shutter Island and Body Of Lies(even 1950s Revolutionary Road and 19th century Gangs of New York he didn't wear any lifts or big-heeled shoes) Spence says on 21/Sep/09
You guys are grasping at straws. DiCaprio is a weak 6 feet..but 6 feet is 6 feet. He is 182-83 cm. In every movie he is in now he looks 6 feet. He looks 6 feet in the Departed, catch me if you can and in the new trailer for Shutter Island. This photo disproves all the 5'11 claims. With Al Gore who is probably 184 still and was 185 at peak. DiCaprio is clearly only slightly shorter. Case closed. He is 6 feet tall

Also, denzel looked about as tall next to Russel Crowe in formal premieres and AMERICAN GANGSTER as Leo Dicaprio did next to Russel Crowe in BODY OF LIES and all the premieres. So with that said he is a chameleon of height,denzel that is.Anywhere from a flat 5'11 to 6'1,mostly just 6ft.The msot intriguing ones where he looks the shrotest is with Willis,Crowe,Ethan Hawke,Mel gibson and tyrese Gibson. valeri says on 21/Sep/09

Most of the people you mention who are listed six feet, looked six feet to me such as Tom Hanks. DiCaprio looked 5'11". So did Bruce Willis who I've stood right next to a couple of times talking with him. He and I were the same height. Clooney looked 5'11" but he could have been wearing lifts and is in reality 5'10". I've now seen too many photos where he just doesn't appear to be 5'11". Denzel looked at least six feet, even taller. I'd say 6'1". Check out photos of him with Obama. They're close to being the same height and Obama is 6'2". I've posted photos showing Denzel only about an inch and a half shorter than 6'4" Michael Moriarty. Denzel was pretty much the same height as Gene Hackman in CRIMSON TIDE. Hackman's peak was 6'2" and by the time of that film had possibly lost an inch. I hope that answers your questions. valeri says on 19/Sep/09
Frank2 ,I think you are one of the very few who have actualyl met these people and there is another person on the Brad Pitt page,Antonio was his name there. There was one other person a few years back who claimed on this site that he worked on the departed set and witnessed dicaprio in socks,then he put on regular footwear,which he wore for that movie and he had similar footwear on,that gave same height he said.He aid leo was around 5'10 and 3/4. Close to yuor 5'11 claim.So could he be even a quarter under during the day ? I'm curious about these actors who hover around the 5'11 mark. Bruce willis,brad pitt(5'10?),clooney etc. Can you give any info on these actors.And maybe tom hanks,denzel,christian bale and nicolas cage if not too hard. thank you,looking forward to hearing your reply.

Frank2 how was his posture around you?
Frank2 I have been meaning to ask in cm are you 180 or 181cm? Basicly 180cm is a flat 5'11 and 181cm is 5'11 1/4. Frank2 says on 13/Sep/09
Except he didn't grow after TITANIC. I've seen him and he exactly my height or 5'11". Spence says on 12/Sep/09
6'-6'0.25 in the morning...5'11.75 at night...he grew another inch from titanic till now..he looks 5'11 in titanic James says on 30/Aug/09
Zane looked tallish in Titanic but not very tall Hugh 191cm says on 29/Aug/09
In Titanic Zane looked 2 inches taller than DiCaprio clearly. A 5ft11.75 Dicaprio would result in a 6ft1.75 Zane! I'd say Dicaprio was more 5ft11 when that was made. So 6ft1 flat or a shade below is perfect for Zane. 5ft11 is ridiculous for Zane. 182-183cm for DiCaprio. Spence says on 29/Aug/09
Morning 6 footer The Horse of FUNK says on 29/Aug/09
He looks like a solid 6' in Shutter Island. I think 5'11" is too low for him. James says on 28/Aug/09
What doesn't add up on Franks2's 5th of August post is that he himself said that Zane is "Well over 6ft" yet he looks similar height as suppoused 5'11 Dicarpio Anonymous says on 24/Aug/09
diana...5 feet 9, don't think so...that makes Kate W. in Titanic what, 5 feet 4 or so. Don't think so. He's never looked that short. His slim frame adds illusion but 5 feet 11 to 6 feet range easy. No more or no less! Mathew says on 23/Aug/09
django says on 8/Aug/09
He did not have a late growth spurt, unless perhaps 1 cm after Titanic. He's around 181cm, not more. He wears lifts in movies nowadays and his body bulked up.
Rob, you're losing it on more postings lately. Dermot Mulroney a full 177 cm is complete bogus, never more than 176cm. Brad Pitt is never more than 179cm, and so forth.
While I agree Dicaprio is much more likely to be 180 - 181 cm (roughly 5'11" flat) than 182 - 183 cm, I think it's funny that you're calling Rob out for "loosing it" because he's listed some actors actors at 1 cm more than your opinion. django says on 8/Aug/09

Didn't anyone look at the photo I linked showing DiCaprio next to the film's cast? If you do you'll see he looks 5'11". There was no last minute growth spurt.

Frank2, how can Winslett be 5'7 if she was shorter than Ellen Degeneres when she was on her show ? Kate was in heeled boots while Ellen was in sneakers."
She isn't shorter. Kate is taller by about two inches:

It's hard to see in the clip if Ellen is wearing regular old fashioned sneakers. She might be wearing the type my wife has which actually have an inch and a half heel plus a slight lift inside boosting her by two inches. Frank says on 30/Jul/09
I worked as part of the setup crew on the filming of Titanic in 1996. Occasionally I had the chance to work and be around the actors, and DiCaprio had a little over an inch on me in similar footwear (I'm 5'9") so 5'10.5" sounds quite accurate. Frank says on 30/Jul/09

Vibram, he didn't grow at age 24. In TITANIC he was 5'11". Problem was that other male actors were taller such as 6' Billy Zane and especially 6'2" David Warner. Plus Kate Winslet isn't exactly short. She's nearly 5'7" so in heels she's about 5'10". Nick says on 23/Jul/09
Daniel Day-Lewis is 6'1 but looks way taller then DiCaprio in Gangs of New York TELLEM says on 23/Jul/09
the only thing he grew after titanic were his "period shoes" Vibram says on 22/Jul/09
Yeah he looked about 14 in Gilbert Grape but was 18 IRL and his voice hadn't broke yet. The characters age was 14.
He was 5ft10.5 in titanic (1997 release; filmed in 1996 aged 22/23), and he got to 6ft -- his final height by the time he filmed The Beach -- in 1999 aged 24/25. So he must of grown about 1.5" inches in 1997/98. Frank2 says on 22/Jul/09

The fellow on the far left claimed he was 5'10". I think in reality he was at best 5'9". The pretty young woman nest to him was a solid 5'9" and always wore low heeled shoes. The shortest man was about 5'5". The woman next to me was about 5'4" and was wearing heels.
I think part of it is I have better posture. I've always noticed when I stand up straight I seem to be a lot taller than people who were close to my height. max says on 9/Jul/09
In what's eating gilbert grape leo appears to be slightly shorter than depp (5'9). He was 18 when he made that movie so that means that must have had a late growth spurt. TELLEM says on 8/Jul/09

Agree with James and Frank2. A strong 5'11", no more than that. I think the criminal mistake that people make on this site is underestimating just how visually imposing a genuine 5'11" - 6' individual can look. That is to say, there seems to be a deep, perhaps unconscious belief that if somebody is 'tall', they must be at least six feet, preferably nearer 6'1". A guy with a lean frame and a full 5'11" in height, like DiCaprio, is capable of looking pretty tall. A lot of people argue that Brad Pitt is only 5'10" (I don't agree), but he's shown that even at that height he's capable of looking tall thanks to his frame -- and an underrated height. Frank2 says on 5/Jun/09

James: Are you being ironic with the whole sleep questioning thing? If so, It is very amusing. Well done.

Thats funny stuff. T says on 15/May/09
Ran head first right into him while Christmas shopping three years ago. He was very nice, and about the exact same height as me (6'). Misha says on 15/May/09
I have confirmed huge losses in height from lack of sleep many times by taking careful measurements in the same spot and in the same way. I am 5'11.5"
after lots of sleep, but if I stay up all night and then work all day the following day, by that evening my height drops to little more than 5'10". Regarding DiCaprio, I think he's an honest six feet even on awakening and
goes down to 5'11.5" at night. But losing an inch in a day is possible - I've done it many times - and it takes two or three days to get it back! I also think
based on these photos that if DiCaprio is not wearing lifts in the later one,
then he did actually undergo a late growth spurt - it is much more common than
most people think - as he is clearly a taller person in the more recent photo. TELLEM says on 13/May/09

Your height does not fluctuate an inch in one day. At absolute most it may fluctuate 1cm. So to say that when he wakes up he is 6 ft and later in the day he is 5' 11" isn't possible. jf says on 10/May/09
I am exactly 5'11.5" tall and have always had a hard time figuring if Leo is taller or shorter than myself. I've always come to the conclusion he had me by a shade so I would say 6' no more. Anyone crediting him with 6'1" or more is probably being fooled by his extreme lankiness. He has long arms and legs but a short torso, which give the impression of added verticality. Anonymous says on 8/May/09
A weak 6ft. Alex says on 7/May/09
With these celebs its not easy to say what height they are each time of the day from morning, midday and evening. Almost all the time you see these celebs they are going to be at midday or evening heights. I'd be suprised if we saw any of them at their max height for the day. Now Leo probably is 6'0 out of bed but whenever I see him he looks in the 5'11-5'11.5 range which is probably his afternoon-evening height which are very close to each other anyway.

He's a strong 5'11. His lowest height is probably no less than 5'11 and is probably pushing 6'0 out of bed. Akirum says on 20/Apr/09
Leo is clearly 5 ft 11 or more. He could be as tall as 6 ft 0 in the morning hours and I wouldn't question that at all. My own height varies between 5 ft 11.5 and 6 ft 0.25 depending on time of day, so 6 ft for Leo is certainly within reasonable possibility. Original says on 13/Apr/09
DiCaprio is 182cm in my opinion. Hugh 190cm says on 13/Apr/09
Not really James. Baldwin just looks fat a lot of the time. A real imposing guy would be someone like Forest Whitaker. I'll admit Baldwin could pass for 6ft when he was younger because he was slimmer than he is now. Dicaprio is taller than Baldwin. bam says on 13/Apr/09
hugh 190, heights rarely match up that conveniently. Thats why people argue heights, because they don't match up. Dicaprio was 5'11.75, 6ft next to matt damon (5'10) in the departed for sure. But then during the premiere, was 0.75 inches taller than him.... Doug says on 12/Apr/09

Sorry i meant 185cm is too high foe Leo. Hugh 190cm says on 10/Apr/09
Yeah a strong 182cm is accurate. But 185cm out of bed is pushing it. That would mean he'd shrink exactly 1 inch or more during the day! Lenad says on 8/Apr/09
Could measure at 185cm out of bed but no more. I think hes 182-183cm. The 5'10 max is BS Hugh 190cm says on 5/Apr/09

Bball20, these are barefoot estimates. JTRoN says on 5/Apr/09
good guess James, he seems to be close the that. I can relate and understand how picky that height can be, morning im 6'0 or even 6 1/4 on a good day and then 5'11.75 throughout the day and then 5'11.25 by night (all depending on what I was doing that day and for how long)
with that said, Leo seems hard to nail down cause he pulls off 6'0 and 5'11, much like my self I have had people guess my height from 6'1 to 5'10, but most commonly is 6ft. Its close enough and hard to tell, put me beside a solid 6ft guy and look carefully you can see a slight difference. With the right build and right shoes this height is damn near impossible to accurately pin down I find. Ali says on 4/Apr/09
Looks 5'10 ish to me. He was considerably shorter standing completely
straight than Liam Neeson who had very bad posture:

How much inches difference do you guys see here? I think
5-6 inches difference. Liam Neeson is 6'4. So Di Caprio
is really not 182 cm, probably 5'10ish, maybe a weak 5'11.
But more than 5'11 is impossible IMO, unless Neeson is 6'5. ChucktheSchmuck says on 4/Apr/09

Should be pretty easy for a legit 5'11" guy to pull off 6'1" on a regular basis in a good pair of boots. Lots of legit 5'11" ers like Beckham etc can pull off the 6'1" in boots and regularly look like tall guys, as Leo does today.

Hugh get your facts right 6'0" is exactly 182.88cm but rounded up to 183cm. In my opinion if anyone measures 182cm you are 100% allowed to say 6'0". Because 182cm is actually 5'11.75" I mean do we all expect everyone to be walking around & saying I AM 5'11.75" or 5'11.5" these people can just say 6'0" or I'm about 6'0" that sounds right. So of you are 6'0.5" YOU SAY AM ABOUT 6'1"
I totally agree J.J! I myself am 181cm, which according to your statement is literally just under 6 feet, but because 181cm is classed as 5ft 11.25cm people dnt see it as being close to 6ft, but 5ft 11.5cm is 182cm???

I just saw Body of Lies last night, and was I really surprised to see Leo almost exactly the same height as Crowe, even shorter at times. It makes me wonder if he's more like 5ft10.5-5ft11? He can definitely give the impression of 6ft1 at times, but that seems to be in lifts like in Blood Diamond. In Lies though he was very average looking throughout the film, and like already mentioned, he was one of the shortest actors.
The only other scenario is that he is really 5ft11.5, and Crowe was weaing some generous lifts? Complex says on 8/Mar/09
Compared to Russell Crowe, he was max 1 inch over, I saw barely a fraction of an inch in some scenes. He was one of the shorter ppl in Body of Lies, I remember when watching it he looked more average than tallish. 5'11 seems pretty accurate for him.. \\_-_-_-Hugh-_-_-_/ says on 8/Mar/09
No necessarily. 183cm on the dot is 6ft. 182-183cm is literally a fraction less. It's approximitely 5ft11.75. |
