Leonardo DiCaprio Height
Leonardo DiCaprio height: 5 ft 11.5 in (182 cm)

US Actor from Titanic, who probably appears on screen to be taller than he might be in real life due to his slim frame.

On Teletext UK, a journalist said: "He stands no more than 5ft 10ins (if that), is rake thin"

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". Glenn in 2007 asked him and he responded "6ft" as his height.



5ft 8 Glenn beside 32-year old Leonardo and 19 year old Dicaprio

Well I know someone who grow from 5ft9-6ft3 in thier late teens/early 20's.
DandyRandy says on 12/May/08
He looks pretty tall, but I can believe he's around this height.

LOL is it just me or does he have a huge head.
Bill says on 12/May/08
Don't forget gentlemen thats its not uncommon for boys to grow as late as 22-23 years of age. Most women stop growing by about age 17, however men can experience growth much later in life. I think Leo def tacked on extra few inches after 19, and that's not all that incredible or rare
Dave says on 12/May/08
gives me hope that i might grow a little bit more myself..i'm a late bloomer also, and am 19..
oh and james, we might not be able to see the top of his hair, but we can see the top of his head ;o)
James says on 12/May/08
Yeah does look 6ft1 - 6ft2 in the top pic although we can't see the top of his head.
glenn says on 12/May/08
the guy was 6-2 in the above pic.i noticed such a difference in height,i asked him about it.
James says on 11/May/08
Thats possible Jack.
Jack Daniels says on 11/May/08
Ok that if Leo stands straight beside Glenn, he's probably 10 cm (4 inches) taller. So 6'1" min with dress shoes, barefoot he can be 5'11"... 5'11.5", 6ft if his dress shoes are normal.
Kes says on 11/May/08
I always think Leo looks shorter than 6' in movies but that's just me. Certainly in the pic of him at 32 above, he is a good 4" taller
Anonymous says on 9/May/08
in basketball diaries Leo grabs and holds the rim of a 10 foot basketball hoop. Let's be realistic- he has to be over 5'10'' to do that, because he is not very athletic looking.
James says on 7/May/08
He think he did grow a little bit after 18.
Anonymous says on 7/May/08
Either Leo grew 2 inches after the age of 19 or he wears ifts these days.
James says on 7/May/08
glenn its cool don't worry about it I am not really that bothered iam just on here to debate thats all really.
glenn says on 6/May/08
james-anything for you.i want mofo out of the site.
glenn says on 6/May/08
rob-please.read my post.ban mofo.delete the posts.he is abusing a disabled person.thats disgusting.
James says on 6/May/08
Thank you glenn for defending me, i think mofo just needs to know the rules of this website
sam says on 4/May/08
looks like 3 inches taller since age 19! lol
Anonymous says on 4/May/08
He was a late bloomer. If you see a picture of him at 16, he looked like a 12 yr old boy. I read somewhere he shot up after 16.
dmeyer says on 3/May/08
leo never looks under 5 ft 11 only with hanks he can look 5 ft10.75but has loose posture and smaller shoes a bit so he never looks under 5 ft11 but he can look 6 ft on many ocasionand on rare occasions 6 ft 1 so he is 5 ft11.5 to me
dmeyer says on 2/May/08
i finaly got mesured at 181 cm at the pharmacy at 3 pm .
James says on 2/May/08
Hay mofo nice to have you back to your good old abusive self. Leo is 5ft11 1/2 or 6ft period. He is at least 181cm.
glenn says on 2/May/08
yes,ratatak.
rakatak says on 1/May/08
This goes for Gleen, I hope the question doesn't sound stupid
Gleen, do you measured your height with measurement tape?
I appreciate if you answer or not this question.
thank you very much.
James says on 30/Apr/08
Only a littel udner 6ft is Leo
bam says on 29/Apr/08
He is 6ft next to matt damon. So he is 5'11.75, i would guess considering its often clear he is under 6ft.
Tim The Script Writer says on 27/Apr/08
Man that is easly 4 inches on glenn leo is 6ft I met him at a premiere i'm 6'1 i had at least an inch on him
James says on 27/Apr/08
I think after 19 Leo grow from 5ft10 1/2 to 5ft11 1/2 or 6ft.
Heightwatcher says on 27/Apr/08
Jordan. I don't think he grew 2 inches after his 19. He met the lifts and learned to keep a good posture. Also a gap makes you look smaller.
jordan says on 26/Apr/08
Wow it looks like Leo got a little growth spurt after age 19 casue he looks 2 inches taller in the top photo than in the bottom one.
James says on 26/Apr/08
I think Leos 5ft11 1/2 possibly 6ft on a good day.
sam says on 26/Apr/08
i think he is about 6 foot
Davey says on 26/Apr/08
he looks 6 foot to me.
Bill says on 25/Apr/08
LISTEN TO ME PEOPLE, THE PHOTO WITH GLENN SAYS IT ALL, LEO IS DEFINITELY TALLER THAN 5'11!!! Leo is well over 4 inches taller than Glenn there, probly more like 4.5 inches taller. Therefore, Leo is most likely very near 6'0 tall. And for you people that think he's only 5'10 you're CRAZY. He looks 5'10 when he was 19!!! (considering he's leaning over and still taller than Glenn there

Plus, I'm 6'3 and I can't imagine being any more than 3 inches taller than Leo. Trust me. I'm not.

demeyer at what time did you get up the day you were measured at 182cm by your nephew?
sven says on 21/Apr/08
dmeyer why you are so obsessed about your height?Your height is fine...........
dmeyer says on 21/Apr/08
this is weired my nephew mesured me at 1.82.88 cm at1 pm
James says on 17/Apr/08
In the picture taken from 1993 he looks not much taller than glenn perhaps 5ft10.
glenn says on 17/Apr/08
actually he isnt.very difficult to obtain a photo with.signs more though.poses on occasion.runs from people alot.but when he is in the mood,he is ok.
James says on 16/Apr/08
I can imagine Leo is quite freindly in person
glenn says on 16/Apr/08
he was at a college above pic.tribeca film festival.he looked 6-2 to me.he later admitted to me he wore period shoes.
James says on 16/Apr/08
Yeah john he might have been wearing dress shoes in the picture above.
john says on 16/Apr/08
because he is in a business suite in the top photo he would most likely be wearing work shoes which are normally a minimum of 1 inch rise

Jack Daniels says on 16/Apr/08
Thanks guys. Right Leung.
Leung says on 16/Apr/08
Noel is the guitarist/main songwriter is 5’8”, and Liam is the singer and is about 5’10”. The funny thing was when Robbie Williams and Liam Gallagher had their public feud years ago, Liam was calling Robbie “the fat Take That member”, and Robbie was referring to Liam as “midget” and “garden gnome”.
glenn says on 15/Apr/08
oh duh.i have those guys.the noel pic i think is lost.i saw them 2 years ago.no pics though.got my first and only in 1997.5-8 and 5-10 range.forget who is what.
James says on 15/Apr/08
Jack Daniels were talking about Leo's height not Noel or Liam Gallaghers?
Jack Daniels says on 15/Apr/08
Liam Gallagher? Oasis's singer...His brother is Noel.
James says on 14/Apr/08
If Leo wore lifts in the departed he would have appeared 3 or 4 inches taller than Matt Damon but he only appeard 2 inches taller.
ted T says on 14/Apr/08
It's very possible that In the Departed Leonardo DiCaprio wore massive lifts.
James says on 14/Apr/08
Although there was 2 inches between Leo and Damon, it does metnion on the Matt Damon page that he might be 5ft9.5 so it kind of makes sense Leonardo DiCaprio 5ft11.5 and Matt Damon 5ft9.5.
glenn says on 14/Apr/08
thanks jack daniels! much appreciated.i want to stay here as long as there is a site.i just forgot who liam is?.
Jack Daniels says on 14/Apr/08
Happy birthday Glenn, in late sorry. Respect for your good work, man.Stay here as long as you can. It would be very funny if you take a picture with Liam Gallagher one day.
glenn says on 14/Apr/08
thats true james.
James says on 13/Apr/08
If anyone has seen 'The Departed' there is 2 inches between 5ft10 Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCapio
James says on 11/Apr/08
Some of the listing are accurate although iam not really sure on others though like Tim Robbins being listed at 6ft4.5 when he clearly looks a strong 6ft5er in pictures and next to other celebs so who knows?
glenn says on 11/Apr/08
robs listings are guesstimates without ever meeting celebs,which is silly in its own right.no disrespect.he is pretty good at estimating though.but to say robs listings are the be all end all...
James says on 10/Apr/08
I kind of agree with that in in the afternoon he could be 181cm
ted T says on 10/Apr/08
I'm quite sure that Rob lists him with his max height.Can you imagine Leonardo DiCaprio being 6ft even in the noon?I don't.I think he is closer to 5-11 than 6ft.
James says on 9/Apr/08
Ted i agree though that Tom Hanks did look taller than Leo at the Catch Me If You Can Premier. But again you have to take some things into considration. For instance in the photos Tom Hanks is standing with very straight almost millitary like posture, whereas Leo is slouching quite a bit might make him appear an inch or half an inch shorter than he really is. Now in terms of footware in those photos Leo appears to be wearing low cut sneakers and Hanks is wearing what looks to be dress shoes. Tom Hanks might have even been wearing small shoe lifts to make him appear 6ft1 as well.

So if Leonardo DiCaprio is 5ft11.5 in the photos the fact he was doing some mega slouching or standing with very loose might make him appear 5ft10.5. And of course Tom Hanks with very good posture and shoe lifts might make him look 6ft1. Overall this might have made the difference look 2 or 2.5 inches between Hanks and DiCaprio in the 2002 Catch Me If you Can Premier phots taking all the factors I mentioned above into account of course.

Who knows I might be wrong i am just guessing really?
glenn says on 9/Apr/08
yes james,its possible.
ted T says on 9/Apr/08
Yes,Leonardo DiCaprio can fool you with his slim frame.He gives a tall impression,but yes i consider 5-11 tall,definetely above average.No way a full 6ft,he is noticeably shorter than 5ft11,75-6ft (182,5cm) Tom Hanks.
James says on 9/Apr/08
The more I think about it the more i can picture Leonardo DiCaprio at a full 6ft.
ted T says on 9/Apr/08
If Rob had leo at 5-11,25 then i don't see why upgrading him at 5-11,5.
Lenad says on 9/Apr/08
Kept growing till after 19. I'm 6ft1 and I've been that height since age 18.
glenn says on 9/Apr/08
thanks rob.and ban him please.or whatever it is you do.no more comments for life. sven-yes of course he wears lifts to reach levels like that.i was tricked.he admitted he wore special shoes to me.period shoes he called them.those are stage prop shoes from different eras.some might have better advantages.or just plain lifts.
glenn says on 8/Apr/08
rob-why are you letting gary harrass me like that?.your so creative gary.wow.that was so inventive and funny.get rid of that loser rob.

[Editor Rob: I'll delete those 2 comments.]
James says on 8/Apr/08
Well Ted he was orginally listed as 5ft11.25 on this page.
ted T says on 8/Apr/08
James,i would say 5-11,25 for him in the afternoon.Rob maybe you can take another look at his height.
sven says on 8/Apr/08
glenn so do you think dicaprio wears lifts to reaches 6-2?He easily 6-1 in shoes,i dont understand how he want be taller than 6-1,6 feet or 5-11 are really good heights...
James says on 7/Apr/08
glenn maybe leo doesn't loose that much height during the day being 183cm when he wakes, 182cm in the aftenoon and 181cm at night. Maybe on a bad day 5ft11 flat in the evening.
glenn says on 5/Apr/08
i think he is 6ft when he wakes.
James says on 5/Apr/08
Ted that would make him 180-181cm in the afternoon then?
ted T says on 4/Apr/08
Maybe Leo is 5-11,5 in the morning just like glenn said 5-8 when he wakes?
dmeyer says on 4/Apr/08
considering glenin those shoes wouild be 5 ft 8.5 leo looks 4.5 in taller thats 6 ft 1 in minus 0.5 in heels thats 5 ft 11.5 maybe he had normal shoes like just 1 cm over average
Jack Daniels says on 3/Apr/08
Don't forget that Glenn wore adidas superstar on the last photo with Leo, who wore dress shoes with possibly lifts. Adidas Superstar gives you about 1 inch max (2 cm), dress shoes can gives you 2 inches. I'm 5.11" and I can assure you, with dress shoes that I can appear as tall as Leo with 5'8" guy beside me.
glenn says on 3/Apr/08
cpari-possibly.
Guess... says on 3/Apr/08
Guess he just started to wear lifts regularly. ;)
bam says on 3/Apr/08
5'11.5 is the kinda the bridge height between average and tall.
cpari says on 3/Apr/08
hey glenn,did leo grow 2" more after he's 19 yrs old?.. I mean look at the pic.
dmeyer says on 2/Apr/08
i think the lowest possible forleo is 5 ft11 for night mesurment
Adam Brennon says on 2/Apr/08
He packed on some meat for 'The Departed'. It's the only film in which I've seen him looking remotely 5' 10ish and only in a few scenes. The rest; quite reliably 5' 11" - 6".
Jim says on 2/Apr/08
glenn, where you answering my question when you said he looked 5-10ish when he was 19?
glenn says on 2/Apr/08
he seemed 5-10ish.
ted T says on 2/Apr/08
Leo has to be about 5-11 in the night.
James says on 2/Apr/08
I just discovered the actor who played Mercution in Romeo and Juliet has a 5ft11 listing on this site and leo did look a little taller than him hmmm
James says on 2/Apr/08
Sorry I mean the character who played Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet film lol
James says on 2/Apr/08
Yes David some people say Leo is 5ft10 but also amazingly as well there are 6ft2 sightings also. Leo always looked very slim and wiery in his movies. In Romeo and Juliet much like the movie 'The Beach' Leo did look 6ft or 6ft1 but didn't really look that much taller than the actor who played 'Tybalt' who is 5ft10.5.
David says on 2/Apr/08
i believe hes 5'10" , have seen pics of him and Gisele Bundchen with sandals and both looked the same height.
Jim says on 2/Apr/08
but glenn, how tall was Leo in the 19 year old picture, it seems like he grew 3 inches after the age of 19 which is amazing.
Lynn says on 1/Apr/08
Yes,
generally I tend to downgrade celebs.

But for me Leo is at least 5'11".

And is cleary taller than Damon 2" at least!
glenn says on 1/Apr/08
i think when he wakes he is close to 6ft.
James says on 1/Apr/08
I dont think height has afffected Leo's popularity as an actor, ok maybe his ex girlfiend broke up with just because he wasn't over 6ft but still i think he can look 5ft11 1/2 or 6ft.
Jim says on 1/Apr/08
I think leo is 5 11 on the dot. maybe a tad bit under. In the departed, the scene on the rooftop at the end, leo was in sneakers and I think matt damon was as well, and leo was about the same height, maybe a tad taller.
glenn says on 31/Mar/08
a month after many encounters of leo being 6-2,i saw him come out of a hotel where they were filming.he was dressed down.no movie wardrobe.i almost didnt reconize him cause he seemed 5-11.thats when i asked him.
Silver says on 31/Mar/08
Leonardo does look 180/181 to me
joe45 says on 31/Mar/08
he definatley is 5foot10.5 min and about 6 foot max
James says on 31/Mar/08
Anonymous for an acting audtion i think they put his heigth down as 5ft10
Anonymous says on 30/Mar/08
james,

pitt listed his height at 5'11'' on that acting slip.
ACG says on 30/Mar/08
hehe, what does pitt have to be embarrassed about? he can easily get away with saying 6' or 6'1 and have the average joe believe him. not saying he is, but he has fooled a countless number of people. including you for a while, glenn, from what you said. but now i guess you've caught on to his lift wearing...
glenn says on 30/Mar/08
i think pitt would get embarresed a bit.i think,or would hope he would answer with 5-11,and not dare say anything further.
observer says on 30/Mar/08
There is a picture on the internet of Leo standing next to the real Frank Abagnale. Leo is several inches taller than Abagnale. Abagnale was described as being 6 feet tall in "Catch Me if You Can" because that must be Leo's "official" height.

That must mean that Leo is maybe 5'10" or 5'10.5 " tall. If he's really "just" 5'10" tall that's fine because he has a beautiful face.
James says on 29/Mar/08
Anonymous i dont think Brad Pitt has ever given his height in an interview? All we know is that on an acting audition form he listed his height as 5ft10 inchs (178cm). I think its obviously clear he has a slight complex about his height.

In light of all this he's great actor and he's hardly short at 5ft10-5ft11 if anything he woulden't have starred in as many films if he was too tall. So being average in a way has kind of helped him get more work as an actor? Although that said i think Brad wishes he was 6ft and with lifts he can be that tall or over like 6ft1.

On the subject of Leonardo DiCaprios height a lot of people see him at 6ft(some even 6ft2). I am just trying to figure out wheather he is a solid 6ft or between 5ft11-6ft????
Anonymous says on 29/Mar/08
thats funny james.In fact, the big star that he is , I never heard him saying his height on an interview.may be i just didnt see it.but its strange. may be they dont have permisson to ask that question to him. you know, fixed interviews.
But glenn can take the risk of asking him for all of us ! :P
James says on 27/Mar/08
glenn i wonder what would happen if you asked Brad Pitt that question lol
miko says on 27/Mar/08
A solid 5"11.5 barefoot, and 6"1.5 in shoes, can look a 6"2 guy with good posture due to his thin body.
glenn says on 27/Mar/08
yeah,he pretty much admitted to me he wore lifts.gotta hand it to him.thats a man to admit that.
James says on 27/Mar/08
coulden't find the picture Height Detective? I think Leo might have grown an inch to 5ft11.5 since that film was made. I remember Clair Danes said when she shot a scene in Romeo and Juliet that there were problems filming it because Leo was 6feet tall or something like that. Cant find the damn quote to save the life of me?
Height Detective says on 26/Mar/08
He looks short in this photo near Billy Zane. It was the Titanic era , so he was around 24. Pretty much grown , i guess.He looked younger though.
He looks a hair under 5.11 besides Billy ,putting billy at 6'1.
Otherwise ,billy is 6.2

Mousehead its been mentioned that Leo was wearing lifts in that picture with glenn
mousehead says on 26/Mar/08
this is interesting. the top of glenn's head reaches the eyebrows of DiCaprio. On the Schwimmer page Glenn's head also reaches the eyebrows. DiCaprio and Schwimmer are the same height?
James says on 25/Mar/08
Matt Damon can actually look 5ft9 at times
little one says on 25/Mar/08
in the departed, dicaprio is at least two inches taller than 5'10 listed matt damon. does this mean damon is really 5'9? if this is so, brad pitt is an inch taller than damon must only be 5'10? it all starts to make sense...
James says on 25/Mar/08
I actually do agree with glenn that Billy Zane can look 6ft2 often in pictures i see of him. Of course as i have said before on the Billy Zane page there is a picture of him stood next to 6ft3 Oswald Boetang and Billy does look more than 2 inches shorter than him?
dennis says on 25/Mar/08
in catch me if you can, the fbi describe 'frank william abignale' as 6'0. they made no mention of leonardo di caprio.
glenn says on 25/Mar/08
billy zane is no way 6ft.not a chance in hell.i saw him and he was 6-2.
ted T says on 24/Mar/08
Yes,he described as 6ft but they always add an inch to your actual height.He was a FULL inch shorter than the 6 feet tall Tom Hanks.
Random Person says on 24/Mar/08
Yeah it's on BBC1 just heard it too
James says on 24/Mar/08
In 'Catch Me If You Can', the FBI describes Leonardo Dicaprio as "6ft tall with brown hair"
James says on 24/Mar/08
i agree 5ft11 to 6ft isn't really that tall
Rinkydick says on 23/Mar/08
Well James Billy Zane is 6ft and Leo was clearly shorter. So I don't know, but in real life he seems more like 5ft11-6ft.
James says on 23/Mar/08
In Titanic he looked 5ft10ish, but i thought in Catch Me If You Can he looked close to Tom Hanks height.
Philip says on 23/Mar/08
This debate about Leo's height is always interesting but i very much doubt Leo is much taller than 5ft 11.5 barefoot and that's your true height, not with shoes on but that is obvious. If he wears lifts he can look 6ft/6ft 1 but it's because he has a slim build that it creates a perception of tallness. Like i'm quite slim and i'm only 5'10.5 (barefoot) and some people say im tall. I'm not. 6ft 1 or 6ft 2 is tall for a man.
Rinkydick says on 23/Mar/08
I think he would be a strong 5ft11 or a weak 6ft but It disturbs me to find that in Titanic and Catch me if you can he looked no taller than 5ft10. Even shorter at times
James says on 23/Mar/08
since i turned 18 a couple months ago i have grown like an inch already so its not impossible to grow after 19 esspecially in Leos case
GF says on 22/Mar/08
Wow! he clearly kept growing a lot after 19... i was almost at full height by 17.
Brah says on 22/Mar/08
Yeah he looked really young in Basketball Diaries also, and he was 21 in that.

James says on 22/Mar/08
i hear you glenn Leo has always looked looked slim and tall to me
Anonymous says on 22/Mar/08
dang leo was a late bloomer, watch his movie "this boy's life" on youtube, he looks 13 there and he was really 18, he looked 5'8 in that movie.
ted T says on 21/Mar/08
Leonardo DiCaprio might be 5-11,5 in the morning and 5-11 flat bedtime.Most of day 181cm.
glenn says on 21/Mar/08
james-these people dont want to listen.thats all.we know leo in reality is 5-11.5 to 6ft.but we also know he can look alot taller.but some here fail to realise that.
James says on 21/Mar/08
i am not sure about 6ft2 but he can defnintley look over 6ft sometimes like 6.05 or 6ft1 occasionally, i think you mentioned glenn that leo told you that he wore lifts since you saw him at 6ft2 then a few weeks later 5ft11ish.
glenn says on 21/Mar/08
all i know is,as with most people who worked with him know,and my peers as well,is that leo can look 6-1,6-2 in the street.so he is close to 6ft.
James says on 20/Mar/08
im just saying he looked really lankey in the 'Beach' which made him look taller thats all. leo has had a couple of 6ft1 listings floating around the interenet as well.
ted T says on 20/Mar/08
James,in the Beach he looked about 5-11 barefoot,maybe 5-11,25.I think in normal shoes he might be 6ft tall.
dmeyer says on 20/Mar/08
6'1 in the beach compare to who
James says on 19/Mar/08
i do agree with you ted esspecially since he looked noticibley shorter than Tom Hanks, but you know in the 'Beach' he did look 6ft1?
ted T says on 19/Mar/08
Rob,how tall do you think Leonardo DiCaprio is in the evening?(7pm)
ted T says on 19/Mar/08
5-11,25 most of day and 180,5cm at night.He is a full inch shorter than 6ft.
Anonymous says on 15/Mar/08
Looks 6' to me. Obviously had a growth spurt from 19 into his twenties. Looks like a little boy when he was 19.
Matt says on 14/Mar/08
5'11" - 5'11.25" sounds about right. Those guys are capable of looking pretty tall with optimal conditions, but they are just as capable of looking an average 5'10"-ish under less favourable conditions. Given the variations in Glenn's sightings, I'd have him down at this height range.
dmeyer says on 12/Mar/08
in person he looked 1 in taller than me i was 5 ft 11.5 with shoes on i had sleepers he had 1.2 in sneakers so he is max 0.5 in taller like 5'11.5 5 '11.75
glenn says on 12/Mar/08
yes,5-11.5,6ft.but ive seen pics of him next to my 5-7,5-8 peers where he looks 5-10!

Don't forget that some guys are very badly about guessing heights. 6'2" for Leo is strange for me, but I never met him, so I respect your suggestions guys. I think that a strong 5'11" guy, can appears a tall man with good posture. There is no solid proof that Leo is taller than 5'11", 5'11.25" on these photos, except Glenn's investigation.
James says on 12/Mar/08
i think leo might be 6ft if all these other actors see him as tall
glenn says on 12/Mar/08
i understood what you meant acg.i didnt feel that way at all.thanks for explaining anyway.
ACG says on 11/Mar/08
Yeah, sorry about that glenn. I guess it sort of sounding like I was rendering you as some sort of sucker that "fell for" Leo's lifts. But that's not what I meant at all...I was actually implying that you would be probably the last person on earth to mistake anyone's height with all your experience, so Leo can't be THAT short if even an expert like you was "fooled."

That's obviously why everyone else thought he was 6'2-he genuinely looked it and did a damn good job of tricking people.

So while it's been established that he's under 6'2, the 5'10 claims are still idiotic.
Brah says on 11/Mar/08
In an interview for "The Departed", Ray Winstone (who is 5'9.5" himself) said that Leo is a big guy and is like 6'2".
Even if he is a bad judge of height, it shows that Leo can give off a tall impression, even on an average height guy.
James says on 11/Mar/08
you said glenn you met him in a club a few weeks after you took the top picture and that he looked 5ft11 with a slouch as opposed to the 6ft2 you saw previousley lol
glenn says on 11/Mar/08
in other words i dont feel so bad im not the only one fooled by the lifts.
miko says on 11/Mar/08
Leo is strong 5"11.75 (182.5cm) out of bed, and probably drops to a weak 5"11 (180cm) at night.
James says on 10/Mar/08
yeah i have heard some people describe leo as 6ft1 or 6ft2 even though they have never actually met him in person. maybe the 6ft2 sightings are because he wears lifts?
glenn says on 10/Mar/08
ex girls always downplay.everyone,ex bodyguards,ex drivers,peers of mine all said 6-2 for leo.
James says on 10/Mar/08
i think leo is between 181cm and 182cm he aint quite a full 6ft though. its interesting when you look at the pictures with leo and tom hanks at the 'catch me if you can' premier. i think in those pictures Hanks wore small lifts in his shoes to boost him up from 6ft to 6ft1. Tom stood with very good posture as well which would have made him look even taller, leo on the other hand, slouched making him look 5ft10ish. and unlike hanks leo wore casuals and hanks wore dress shoes. i think this made the difference appear bigger between the two?
Anonymous says on 9/Mar/08
the one guy i'd like to meet and see how tall he really is. i think 5'11.5 is right on the dot though based on the movies i've seen him in.
ACG says on 8/Mar/08
James: His ex gf was a doctor??

I think Leo's taller than a flat 5'11. Glenn swore up and down at one point that he was a full 6'2 barefoot. And this was after years upon years of studying celeb heights and he was fully aware of lifts.

Of course Glenn admitted that he was wrong, but Leo can't be that much shorter for glenn to have been so sure.

6 ft even maybe even a hair over?
Anonymously Amanda says on 7/Mar/08
he was deffinetly six feet tall in blood diamond. the guy who played imotep was 2 inches taller than him (being 6'2)
Jon says on 7/Mar/08
I'm in "Ashecliffe" with Leonardo, filming in Massachusetts right now. I'm 6 feet even, and Leo is taller than me. He's a big guy all around, tall and broad shouldered. I'd say he's 6'1" at least.
ken says on 6/Mar/08
Hi Anonymous.. yes, that is still possible to grow after age of 19, but only have an percentage of 20 for young men whose over the age of 18.. im 6ft when i was age of 18, i grow about 0.75in a year, at 24 now i just stop grow.. im 6ft3.5(192cm) barefooted.. i had a friend whose growth history just like my..so im a lucky guy.. Anonymous please never give up hope of growing.. who knows you still can top up 1inches or maybe more?? ..
James says on 6/Mar/08
leo is for sure nothing under 5ft11 but of course there have been rumors that his ex girlfriend measured him at 179cm yet theres no evidense?
Rob G says on 6/Mar/08
Yes it is possible to grow after 19, even later, anyway I come to think that Leo could be as well 5'11.25" or even 5'11", but I dont't think he can be lower than that
ACG says on 5/Mar/08
easily. case in point: glenn, me, and countless others. :-)
Anonymous says on 4/Mar/08
looks shorter when he was 19. is it possible for a male to still grow after the age of 19?
Anonymous says on 4/Mar/08
He clearly must have grown since he was 19? Is that possible for most males, to grow after 19 or 20?
glenn says on 2/Mar/08
jack daniel-leo told me he was around 6ft.anything is possible.and he can on rare occasion look as low as 5-10.
Josh says on 1/Mar/08
To me hes 5'11 with regular shoes he can look 6'0 and if u add magic shoes to that he can look as he does in the top pic and in the top pic he looks 6'0.5 to 6'1 but not 6'2.
Jack Daniels says on 1/Mar/08
So Glenn, 6ft for Leo is out?
Jack Daniels says on 1/Mar/08
I think he's 5'11", 5'11.25". These heights are the most realistic for Leo I think.
dmeyer says on 29/Feb/08
in person looked 6 ft but had 1.5 cm more footwear so 5'11.5 also a buch of people who met him say he is 6'1 so if he reaches 6'1 with lifts it means he is near 6 ft
sylar says on 29/Feb/08
in the first pic leo stands at 176 cm..no more...now look at the second...at least a 6 cm gain in the 19-32 period...our leo had some really grown spurts...in his shoes.
James says on 29/Feb/08
glenn its stupid when people come on this page and make up stories about meeting Leo in person and saying he is 5ft10
James says on 28/Feb/08
agreed demeyer Leo is nearly 6ft
glenn says on 28/Feb/08
5-10 is bull.if he looked 6-2 to me in his super sophisticated lifts,then he is 5-11 min.5-11.5 max.
dmeyer says on 28/Feb/08
5 ft 10 is too low for leo
James says on 24/Feb/08
5ft11 at least
Grant says on 17/Feb/08
I've met him, he's 5'11" exactly.
Anonymous says on 14/Feb/08
WOW. Rob, It's the first damn google result if you yahoo search it. I would copy and paste it here if you weren't so anal about that response.

[Editor Rob: You can't even give people the search term to find this quote. That's useless.]
Charliemoto says on 12/Feb/08
di caprio can look as short as 180cm or as tall as 185 depends, at oscars he's got quite longish legs but his not too proportionate in the upper torso and got shortie neck adding to the short looking.

IMO he's 180/181 depending on the day.
Valeri says on 10/Feb/08
bam
Blood diamond cant be used as referation.he wore thick soled combat boots,and who knows what he had inside,djimon wore like 0.25-0.5inchers.In the beginning of the movie,as well as the parts,where he didnt have the combat boots he looked 5'11ish.To me anyway.
bam says on 8/Feb/08
he looked 6'0.5, close to 6'1 in blood diamond.
Anonymous says on 6/Feb/08
p.s. google the gisele quote it exists, i found it at my girlfriends house.

[Editor Rob: yet you can't include a link to a page it's on. I know why...]
glenn says on 6/Feb/08
me too a bit.
ACG says on 5/Feb/08
wow, you'd think leo had spent those 13 years straight in a tanning booth!
James says on 28/Jan/08
yes glenn he is taller than Pitt if only by an inch
glenn says on 27/Jan/08
i agree.at least leo is a hair taller than brad at worst.
dmeyer says on 27/Jan/08
5'11.5 fits leo perfect strong 5'11 or weak 6 ft
Anthony says on 27/Jan/08
Glenn, who would you say is taller? Brad or Leo? IMO there's an inch between them, Brad at 5'10.5 and Leo 5'11.5.
glenn says on 27/Jan/08
i saw zane last year and he was a shocking 6-2.
Chlawk says on 27/Jan/08
Brad Pitt can look tall too and yet... he is only 5'11"...
Buddy says on 26/Jan/08
Leo always appeared inbetween 5'10 & 5'11 to me! In Titanic Billy Zane was a couple inches over him if not more,& Billy Zane is like 6'1...
Dani says on 26/Jan/08
how much do you think his weight was during the shooting of The beach?
glenn says on 25/Jan/08
i originally thought leo was taller now,but i was wrong.rob said he lost 50 comments.so hopefully im not repeating.
dmeyer says on 24/Jan/08
leo is 5'11.5 if he wears 1.25 in shoes plus 1 in lifts inside he would be 6'1.5 to 6'1.75 with shoes on ,looking about 6 ft 0.5 in and hounsou is 6'2 wear flat 0.75 in shoes with normal posture it is normal that they look close in height
metalmaster says on 24/Jan/08
glenn do you think that dicaprio is taller than was in titanic?
miko says on 24/Jan/08
I think its fair to say Leo is a strong 5"11.
Brah says on 24/Jan/08
A very good full-body pic of Leo and Gisele, both in sandals on level ground was posted awhile ago. Leo appeared at least 1 inch taller than her. Maybe her thin, model body skewed her perspective.
Leung says on 24/Jan/08
For me it was Blood Diamond in which Leo was most impressive because Djimon Hounsou can dominate many guys, even 6’ guys can look short next to him, but Leo held his own very well.
glenn says on 23/Jan/08
correct james.he can look taller.
Valeri says on 23/Jan/08
James,I only saw 5'11 in the beach.
