ME says on 19/Nov/09
that's wierd. he allways looks even with 5'11.5 matthew perry, and i don't think chunky boots makes a 2 inches diiference
Rob G says on 10/Sep/09
Regardless if that story's true, I think more chances he's 5'8" then 5'10" mId says on 9/Sep/09
I remember long ago some guy posted that matt was on leno and leno said something like.. what are you.. like 5'10 and matt's answer was no.. I'm 5'8. at the time I saw that post I looked over at youtube if I could find the interview but I never did.. so I don't know if he was trolling or if it was a true story. Doug says on 1/Aug/09
Watched Friends earlier. I think Rob G and I are damn near correct with our estimates. I would say that Perry has roughly 3 inches on Le Blanc, say Le Blanc is 5'8.75", Perry 5'11.75" and Schwimmer 6'0.5" "maybe 6'1". I did watch closely as they were standing and you have to admit that Schwimmer passes as a legit 6'1" and Le Blanc as a legit 5'9". 6'1" for Schwimmer and 5'9" for Le Blanc is pretty close this is just about how they look. I think though having seen both men barefoot that they are both just shy of these heights. Clay says on 23/Jul/09
Its tricky with someone like that who wears chunky boots. He could be 5'8.5-5'9 with a large frame wearing those shoes to looks average. Me says on 19/Jul/09
Rob do you really think he reaches 5'9.5? He can look rather short at times. I peg him at about 5'9 flat. Me says on 16/Jul/09
Le Blanc is 5'9 flat. Doug says on 11/Jul/09
RobG exactly. Great find. Le Blanc actually looks a tad the short side barefoot he looks 5'8" agreed? I'd imagine that director guy is a around a legit 6'1" or so and roughly 6'2" in shoes. Le Blanc looks nowhere near 5'10" barefoot. In fact if I didn't know I'd have estimated 5'7" or 5'8". Incidentally I thought Le Blanc was 5'7" for ages like Stallone. IN his socks I can't even see 5'92 in all homesty, he looks like a 5'8" er at best. Doug says on 11/Jul/09
5'10" is absurd for Le Blanc. 5'8.5"-5'9" for sure. I bet he is the same exact height as Stallone who also claims 5'10.5". Mike says on 7/Jul/09
Yeah I think 5'9.5 is a tad generous, I'd say he's a good 5'8, max 5'8.5 Rob G says on 3/Jul/09
Just watched episode 4 from season 6 Friends, there is a scene on the movie set where Joey is playing a dying man, just before the take LeBlanc is standing just in sox in a full-body shot, to me he looks 5'8" ish or a weak 5'9", and I factor that he is not standing absolutely straight there. Check it out, the scene at about 7:40 to 8:25
Click Here
btw the episode is hillarious Rob G says on 30/Jun/09
I can buy a weak 5'9" for LeBlanc RisingForce says on 28/Jun/09
I used to think that le Blanc was 5'8.5", but the more pictures I see of him I'd say 5'9", 5'9.5" is about accurate. His frame looks too big for anything under that. Doug says on 27/Jun/09
Anything over 5'9" is out of the question. I can just about buy 5'9" for him, more on the 5'8.5" (174cm) though. Perry looks like a good 182cm. Rob G says on 25/Jun/09
I am wonderig what Editor Rob thinks about this, especially about this barefoot commercial. I mean Perry is listed here at 5'11.25" and LeBlanc at 5'9.5" but there is no way the difference in that commercial is just 1.75" more like at leats 2.5" I'm thinking a slight upgrade for Perry and a slight downgrade for LeBlanc would be perfect. What do you think Rob? Rob G says on 24/Jun/09
Indeed he is not short because 5'9" is not short just like 5'8.5" is not short either, and to me he looks to be in that range standing bareofoot next to Perry, who himself is tad under 6'0" Leung says on 23/Jun/09
Come on guys, Le Blanc is not short. This 177cm listing is accurate. Rob G says on 23/Jun/09
Doug says on 22/Jun/09
Rob G. What woould you say about my suggestion that Le Blanc and Stallone are identical in height? And yes he was definately wearing lifts judging by the shape of his shoes in the Goldblum scenes. Not surprised really, the producers probably gave them to him otherwise he would look ridiculous in comparison.
Doug, I would say that this is exremally possible,
and yeah LeBlanc really does look to be 5'8"ish in that commercial, I mean no way is he over 5'9". Doug says on 22/Jun/09
Barefoot he looks like a 5'8" guy in that commercial. Notice the big height difference between Blanc and Perry. Face it. If Le Blanc is a legit 5'9.5" then Perry is 6'1". Somehow I think that Blanc is 5'8.5" and Perry very close to 6'. Doug says on 22/Jun/09

Now way. Paul Rudd listed at a flat 5'9" on here was taller than Matt Le Blanc by about hlaf an inch. It should be the other way round, Le Blanc 5'9" and Paul Rudd at 5'9". I bet any money though that Le Blanc and Sylvester Stallone are exactly the same height. Tachna says on 18/Jun/09

I'd say 5'9˝ (176cm). Rob G says on 9/Jun/09
He certainly look in the 5'8" to 5'9" range here:
Click Here Clay says on 20/May/09
Leung, I think its possible he's 5'8.5ish, he always wore big boots on the show, and was still noticably shorter than Chandler. Rob G says on 14/May/09
Hmm..."Goldblum did not dominate" LeBlanc, well I must disagree. There was about 6 inches betwen the two and Goldblum had a relaxed posture, while Matt was most certainly wearing lifts (look at his shoes in this episode). All in all I think LeBlanc is 5'9". umesh says on 11/May/09
i think Matt is 5ft9.5. Leung says on 5/May/09
The reason why Goldblum did not dominate him is because Le Blanc is not short. Le Blanc is close to 5’10”, it’s weird that people think he’s 5’8”. Doug says on 5/May/09
Yes he must have been wearing lifts next to Jeff Goldblum so the height difference wouldn't be too huge. Goldblum had relaxed posture as always giving a 6'3" impression. Doug says on 5/May/09
I was watching him in Friends earlier and Matt le Blanc didn't look 7-8 inches shorter than 6'4" Jeff Goldblum. 6 inches maybe. LeBlanc must have been wearing lifts in his scnees with Goldblum as I did notice his shoes were pretty clunky. He can give a 5'10" impression in good footwear but he mostly looks short. I thought he was 5'7". Didn't believe the 5'11" though. Clay says on 20/Apr/09
RisingForce says on 15/Apr/09
The comment about Bruce Willis being between 5'9" and 5'10" almost made me die laughing.
Same here. You're buddies cred goes out the door Fred, unfortunatly. RisingForce says on 19/Apr/09
5'9.5" is the highest I could see. He's probably no shorter than 5'9" though. bam says on 18/Apr/09
this guy is a legit 5'9.5 in my book. mamonazo says on 17/Apr/09
Clay if Matt was a confident guy he wouldnt be wearing lifts all the time. No matter how much cash when u have a complex. Same with guys wearing wigs or having hair implants. They do not have the confidence to be bald and cool as some other bald guys. Le blanc is not a short guy but he seems to have issues with height. that's a fact. RisingForce says on 15/Apr/09
The comment about Bruce Willis being between 5'9" and 5'10" almost made me die laughing. Fred says on 14/Apr/09
A very good friend of mine worked on the filming of Friends for many years and saw the "stars" on a very regular basis. I'd always ask him all sorts of questions including those about height and foot wear etc. What he told me:
1. They are all shorter than you'd probably think.
2. At various times they have all worn lifts which even led to disagreements at times.
3. He estimated that LeBlanc was around 5'8, Perry 5'10.5 and Schwimmer 5'11. LeBlanc virtually always wearing lifts and Schwimmer keen on chunky shoes to emphasize his height.
He said Willis was between 5.9 and 5.10 without shoes as was Brad Pitt.
Cue the angry responses from fanboys....
I have no reaon to doubt him as I don't see the motivation to lie. Apparently most people in Hollywood are much shorter than you'd think (they look better on camera??) but they are also very insecure about it. Companies make a fortune providing custom fit lifts for stars. Clay says on 14/Apr/09
Im sure Matt Le Blanc with his millions of dollars and beautioful women has no problems with confidence guys.. mamonazo says on 10/Apr/09
Leung, a military posture on a confident cool guy means confidence . A military posture on Matt does not equal to confidence at all. Pitt looks great and Matt is just a different type of man. Rob G says on 8/Apr/09
I would even go so far and say that Stallone is a little taller than LeBlanc Brad says on 8/Apr/09
Screams insecurity. Stallone knows. RisingForce says on 7/Apr/09
The reasons that I can't believe he's 5'10" are that he never really looks much over that despite wearing chunky footwear and if he was 5'10" then why would he sound so unsure claiming 5'10.5"? "I'm like, you know, 5-10 1/2, maybe." He doesn't sound very sure of his claim. mamonazo says on 7/Apr/09
leung, one thing is having a good posture and another thing is lifting ur whole body and chin in a ridiculous way. Brad Pitt has a good posture and looks great. Matt looks silly and not confident at all. If u don't see the differece thats not my problem. Ask anyone in the fashion world if u need advise. Leung says on 6/Apr/09
That’s absolute rubbish mamonazo.
Standing tall is basically having good posture which is a good thing, and contrary to your opinion it is very cool indeed, and it is the body language of a confident person not an insecure person. mamonazo says on 6/Apr/09
He's a short guy that always tries to strecht himself up so to look taller same as sly. that's not cool at all! Shouts insecurity. Leung says on 5/Apr/09
I could believe 5’9.5” but certainly not 5’8.5”. Rob G says on 4/Apr/09
Agreed on 5'9" morning height, middday he is prooly about 5'8.5". Plus 2 inch lifts in those ugly boots he was wearing constantly during Friends and he may appear as 5'10.5" :-) IMO he did look 1" - 1.5" shorter than Perry, but he had noticable footwear advantage and most probably lifts. A slight downgrade wouldn't be the worst thing. Rob G says on 1/Apr/09
Agreed Rising Force, he is possibly 5'9" in the morning, midday about 5'8.5" With lifts in those boots he wore constantly on Friends he may be that claimed 5'10.5", about right considering he is atleast 1 - 1,5 ich under Perry, and Perry (who I believe is in 5'11" - 5'11.5" range) is usually wearing snikers or flats. Brad says on 31/Mar/09
Yes Miko, that's "the Le Blanc effect". He knows he's going to be fired on by the photogs with the cast so he's in his 3" whoppers. Matthew is probably laughing silly. RisingForce says on 30/Mar/09
Le Blanc there is getting a noticeable camera advantage and his posture is indentical to the Stallone effect, yet he's visually shorter than Matthew Perry who is listed here at 5'11.25". And that's not even considering what Le Blanc may have in his shoes.
He's 5'9" in the morning. Leung says on 30/Mar/09
I think Le Blanc and Stallone are both 5’10” miko says on 30/Mar/09

I want to see that clip. Katie nailed it. She's not stupid. He's 5' 9" in his effect. He's always looking up to male humans. "Suspicious"? Those are the Stallone '83 model with Travolta. "Five feet ten and a half", try "maybe 5' 9" if I stretch myself". bam says on 22/Mar/09
perry might be closer to 6ft, according to glenn, 6ft. Le blanc is 5'9.5, 5'10ish with a small footwear boost. RisingForce says on 19/Mar/09
I can't help but find it funny how much he stalled when he claimed 5'10.5" and how unsure he sounded. I know there's a clip of that interview somehwere, I'd love to see it. I know Katie Couric called him out too saying "don't you mean 5'8"?".

it's obvious that Le Blanc is atleast 2 inches shorter. In the first picture the low angle favors Perry a bit, but Le Blanc is also closer to the camera. In the second picture it shows that Perry slouching heavily is still taller than Le Blanc.

LeBlack at 5'9" makes a to me more sense thn %'10" LeBlack, especially becouse he needed those ugly shoes to get o Perry's heighand still was at hus best 1 unch shorter, often 1,5inch to 2 inch, and Perry is at very, wery best a weak 6footer RisingForce says on 7/Feb/09

Hej anannymus, I think this barefoot commercial is priceless, actually a few months ago I also added the link here, but it seems that this commercial has sadly been overlooked. However, I can buy all your estimations for the guys, but for the girls I'm not sure. Anyways, here's what I think:
Schwimmer 6'0" (but legit like 6'0.5" or even 6'0.75" morning)
Perry 5'11" (arguably 5'11.5" max)
LeBlack hmm 5'8.5", maybe 5'9"
Kudrow 5'8.5"
Aniston and Cox around 5'4" maybe tad more :-) Riley says on 28/Jan/09
every time i see this guy on tv he is wearing the biggest shoes you could get... who knows what is packed inside them. Clay says on 26/Jan/09
Schwimmer - 6'1.5
Perry - 5'11.75
Le Blanc - 5'9
Kudrow - 5'8
Aniston - 5'5
Cox - 5'4 Anonymous says on 22/Jan/09
Based on the 'barefoot' commercial, my estimates for the cast of friends would be:
David Schwimmer 6' 0"
Matthew Perry 5' 11"
Matt LeBlanc 5' 8"
Lisa Kudrow 5' 7.5"
Jennifer Aniston 5' 5"
Courteney Cox 5' 3" - 5' 3.5" RisingForce says on 20/Jan/09
Le Blanc seems 5'8"-5'9" to me. Clay says on 17/Jan/09
Yeah, ok there Matt you know for a fact Perry is 5'10.5? Please. Le Blanc said in that interview he was '' 5'10 and a half...or somethin'' cheekishly the female interviewer said ''....not 5'8?'' - ''no, no im 5'10''. RisingForce says on 7/Jan/09
It's funny how he said "like, you know, five ten and a half maybe". He couldn't have sounded more unsure of his claim and when Katie Couric says that really means five eight and then all of a sudden becomes sure and says "no, five ten and a half". I can picture him in the interview when asked how tall he is. He was probably stalling for a minute and thinking about how much he could get away with.
I highly doubt he's as tall as he claims. Brad says on 6/Jan/09
He's not over 5' 9" and he looks really short by Lisa Kudrow but tall by the Coxistons and the little guy by the guys. Breaks out the chunkies 24/7 365. Matt's 5' 10.5" estimation is what "maybe" should be stamped in letters as big as the Hollywood sign. Try never. glenn says on 6/Jan/09
perry is 6ft.saw him in dress shoes and converse one night of bizzare bumping into him twice.schwimmer is 6-2.you wanna argue that he is 6-1,im fine with that.you wanna say perry is 5-11.5,im fine with that too.no lower on both.only cause i see these guys in the flesh.not to challenge you.with all due respect. Matt says on 5/Jan/09
Clay: you could argue that Le Blanc is .5 - .75" taller than my estimate. But I know for a *fact* that Perry is 5'10.5" on the nose. He is kinda the benchmark for my estimates of the other guys; still not an easy task 'cos of their body proportions and taste for special shoes... Clay says on 27/Dec/08
Those are all about an inch too low Matt. Clay says on 27/Dec/08
Actually he was the big tough guy on Friends. Compared to Ross and Chandler at least. Doug says on 24/Dec/08
I was astounded when I learned the guy was listed at 5'11 initally, I thought hang on, somebodies telling porkies. I thought. ahem no way. I honestly thought he was around 5'7" - 5'8" in Friends, most people saw him as a little guy right? He never looked more than 3 inches taller than Jennifer Aniston and she is what, 5'5"? I can't see Le Blanc anything over 5'9", he was surely shorter than Lisa Kudrow right? Matt says on 9/Dec/08
Jay, you are way off-base. Very few people on Schwimmer's page argue for 6'2"; only a few top out their estimates at 6'1". And Perry? I can't remember many people, if any, arguing that he is six foot. Most float around the 5'11" mark.
Le Blanc wore the chunky munsters, yet never looked tall. His body frame and limbs let him down (compare that to Brad Pitt, or even Matt Perry, whose body frames are much more condusive to increased height illusion).
Friends was on the other night and Le Blanc was barely beating 5'6.5" Dina Meyer in scenes they had together. And whenever Le Blanc tried to look tall next to Perry and Schwimmer, he invariably had a super-erect posture.
Around 5'8.5" for Le Blanc, 5'10.5" for Perry, 6'-6'0.25" for Schwimmer.
There you have it. Jay says on 5/Dec/08
The stated height is correct. In fact, the 3 male "Friends" are each 2 inches apart. If you round up, then LeBlanc is 5'10", Perry is 6'0", and Schwimmer is 6'2". Of course, those are with shoes and rounding up by half an inch each.

Guys I was just watching friends season 5.There is an episode where Chandler and joey are trying to get rid of Ross from their apartment.. So they spot an apartment ad in newspaper.. And the three guys go to check out the new apartment for ROSS.. The Scene inside the apartment while the 3 guys are checking out the apartment shows clearly their heights.Here they show very clearly the footware each of them is wearing and also the height difference between them.And Joey is considerably shorter than Ross and also shorter than chandler..looking at that video my guess is Matt le blanc Is 5'8" or max 5'9".. Sorry I dont have the link. I just have it on DVD.. Anonymous says on 28/Nov/08
I see him at 5'9" not sure if he is under that. Wearing lifts to his Perry's heigh speaks for itself, and Perry is 5'11". And Schwimmer is a legit 6footer but not 6'1" or 6'2" anonymous says on 22/Nov/08
In one episode, he was standing opposite elle mcpherson and he was the same height as her and she's 6 foot. I would say he's 177cm. Btw ross is 185 cm and chandler is 180cm. random says on 18/Nov/08

Ok then, we KNOW that Courteney is 5'5" because she has stated so many times. She appears to come up to a bit bellow schwimmer's lip would give him about 7 inches on her - making him 6ft. He clearly has about 2 inches on perry, making him 5'10ish. You can't really tell from the picture because they're quite far apart but on Friends, Chandler ALWAYS looks a bit bigger than Joey.
Making Matt Le Blanc about 5'9". Smithey says on 16/Aug/08
looks about the same height as gary oldman in friends? Clay says on 5/Aug/08
Joey never looked even close to Ross unless there was some weird camera angle. He looked close to Chandler at times, but you also saw a 3 inch gap at times as well. Anonymous says on 18/Jul/08
Le blanc has bad posture throughout friends where as Schwimmer is always stretched to his full height in friends. It's part of their character. Schwimmer being uptight and Joey being the relaxed easygoing person. That claim of 5ft 10 and a half maybe sounds right, the maybe bit being the 1/2 an inch. I'd gave the guy 5ft10 because he can look as tall as Chandler or Ross at times in friends. Brad says on 9/Jul/08
That 1:05 video still is fake. They've got Matt taller than Perry and literally the same height as Schwimmer who is 6' 1". He's 5' 9" and wears typical Hollywood chunky shoes that are really boots. He and Jason Priestley get the TV footwear award for stealth height enhancers. His solo show sucked. anonymous says on 4/Jul/08
In the second pic he is also closer to the camera, in front of a leaning 6`1 schwimmer, and still looks about 4 inches shorter.

There's a Youtube video posted on Matthew Perry's page with all of Friends standing barefoot. Matt Le Blanc looks not much more than 3.5 inches taller than Jennifer Aniston and a good 3 inches shorter than Matthew Perry. I think 5'8"-ish is more reasonable for him. I'll agree he could look 5'10" on Friends though. Rob G says on 20/May/08
Schwimmer is most likely 6'1", LeBlanc wears huge boots during friends he really is around 5'9", Perry is hard to tell, 5'11" or a weak 6footer tops Rhonda says on 17/May/08
I think theres 1 inch between chandler and joey and 1 inch between ross and chandler, but yet theres people who are claiming that david schwimmer is 6ft2 that would make matt le blanc 4.5 inches smaller, i think theres a lot less difference than that when you put all 3 together theres not that much difference between them apo says on 12/May/08
there is an early episode of friedns where joey comes out without his shoes, just socks, I thing it was episode 9 or 25,I was surprised because he looked way shorter than the others, like 5'8.5. Definitely not more than 5'9. I'll look to find that episode, everybody will be convinced, it was so obvious. Lucas/6' says on 30/Apr/08
hard to tell, sometimes he looks about 5'10 with huge boots, but taking that commercial into account i wouldn't say he's 5'9, more like 5'8 tops JackieTreehorn says on 27/Mar/08

If you notice, in several episodes of Friends when Le Blanc sits next to Perry, you can often see that his leg length (from foot to knee) is higher: This is possible evidence to me that there is definately quite a lot of lift in those big boots of his. Conclusion- Le Blanc is unlikely to be taller than a weak 5'9 Boxing Fighter says on 6/Dec/07
Matt.
Excelent post! Really good.
I totally agree with you. Matt says on 26/Nov/07
Oh Adam. Poor, naive Adam. Don't you see...this entire site is about quibbling over the difference of half an inch! ;) It's who we are, and we accept it! I also think that when it comes to male height, there is no more important single inch than when it comes to those hovering around 5'10". That one, single inch can be the dealbreaker between somebody looking short and tall. Anybody who is a legit 5'11" tends to look tall, anybody below 5'9" tends to look small. It is no coincidence whatsoever that some of the most debated guys on this site -- Matt ,Damon, Brad Pitt, Sylvester Stallone, Daniel Craig, Colin Farrell -- are all around the 5'10" mark. It is THE magical number in height.
In Friends, Le Blanc has this interesting body language going on. He has this habit of either standing with his arms folded high (and shoulders rigid back) or standing with his hands in his pocket (shoulders rigid back again). He tends to strike these poses when he is in close proximity to Schwimmer, Perry or Kudrow, which I am sure is no coincidence; I'm not so sure he does it as often around the significantly shorter Aniston and Cox. Both poses allow him to get his shoulders and poise absolutely as high as possible without looking like he is on parade. It's also a possibility that they are defensive mechanisms if he was concerned about his increasing bulk. Adam Brennon says on 21/Sep/07
It's three quarters of an inch Rocker. I don't such a margin deserves so much controversy. Bombay Rocker says on 31/Aug/07
Not more than 5 feet 9 for sure.....i am criticised for increasing the height of celebs on this site but he definitely needs a downgrade...in friends if chandley aka perry is 5 feet 11.5 then he was like 1 inch under him with a heel advantage of atleast 1 inch + he always had a rock solid posture and who knows maybe lifts cause his shoes always had this high top and bigger front and ugly so definitely not more than 5 feet 9, this listing is generous. Big-T says on 30/Aug/07
maybe hes my height which is more than 5'9.75" but just under 5'10" i no its not much difference but he does usually look bout 5'10" imo Rob G says on 19/Aug/07
He's 5'9 :-) If Matthew Perry is listed on this site as 5'11.25 so how can Matt be almost 5'10 when he was always wearing big boots to look close in height to Chandler and yet was a bit smaller. Of course Perry could also use some tricks but looking at their footwear it's obvious who was wearing lifts on Friends. I believe Matt Le Blanc is 5'9 :-) leonari says on 14/Aug/07
you can't have Paulo Constanzo and Matt Leblanc at basically the same height. Sorry Rob. It's obvious that Constanzo has him by an inch. Matt Leblanc is 5'9" . He has the body of a 5'9" guy and he looks it. 5'10" is a joke or Paulo Constanzo (from the series Joey) is 5'11" which he is not! His claim is even more laughable: "five ten and a half...MAYBE"...he is acool actor and there is no one who could play Joey the way he did. Still he is only 5'9" Anonymous says on 13/Jul/07
Yeah i think that Matt is quite right about that appearing smaller when surroundedby taller guys,but I about Le Blanc I have differrent opinion though, I've watched all seasons of Friends and must say he never looked like a genuine 5'10 guy more like 5'9 and even though hios a bit smaller than he claims he was great as Joey, I just loved the way he played that role :-) Matt says on 30/Jun/07
I think these 5'9" claims are off. Look back to the Friends episodes where Le Blanc is playing opposite 6' Elle MacPherson. If we assume that MacPherson used flat sneakers giving her half an inch, Le Blanc would still have to muster a 3.5" boost in height. Are we really buying this?
The guy only appears small because he is surrounded by tallies on Friends -- 6'1" Schwimmer, 5'11.5" Perry and 5'8.5" Kudrow (nearer 5'10.5" in her heels). I know the feeling all too well. I am supposedly an "above average" 5'10" in height, but the four lads I used to walk home from college with all bested me by at least an inch and a half.
Le Blanc is a solid 5'10" IMHO. Brad says on 30/Jun/07
5' 9" big block footwear. Somebody You Tube him on Leno saying he is 5' 8" and X out this debate. Just look at the boots he wears on Friends. He's always 3 "friends" away from Lisa in the master shots. I wonder why. dmeyer says on 25/Jun/07
can loook 5'11 in boots so 5'10 Bad Radio says on 25/Jun/07
i think this guy is 5'9...he wears huge boots on friends which make him 5'10 - 5'11. Aaron says on 12/Jun/07
I don't really see matthew perry at 6'0.5". He looks more 5'11, maybe a weak 6'0 with bad posture or something. I also think le blanc might be a smidgen shorter than 5'10 because I'm 5'10.5 and I don't really every look short. He looks short in a lot of scenes in friends and I know perry and schimmer are on the taller side of things, but regardless I still think le blanc is more 5'9/5'9.5. david/ no1 friends fan says on 29/May/07
matt le blanc is 5'10 smack on. he wears lifts to make him leval with 6'0.5 matthew perry and 6'1.5 schwimmer. with 3 inch heals this makes him 6'1 leval with these guys. l0ck n l0ad says on 26/May/07
Hey Mad Fan... damn I can't believe he said that, very nice of him to be honest and secure about admitting his real height, I respect him for that. Way to go LeBlanc! Mad Fan says on 24/May/07
I think it was maybe 2 years ago Matt went on the Tonight Show and Jay Leno brought up height for some reason and said to Matt "You're what, 5'10?" Matt said, "No, I'm 5'8." !!!! Jay looked at him surprisingly and said, "Really". it seemed Leno was shocked because Matt just made everyone in Hollywood 2 inches shorter! I was shocked, too! TheJerk says on 15/May/07
Im not sure if its been mentioned here, but, with Tom Selleck he looks 5-9 in an episode of Friends I saw last night. Don't rule out 5-9 Rob. He's from my city BTW. Brad says on 18/Apr/07
He's always looking up at every male actor that ever came on "Friends". 6'2.5'' JK says on 7/Apr/07
All i know he is definetley not 5'10'', he also looked kinda 5'8'' to me Viper, but 5'9'' MAX Pete2 says on 5/Apr/07
In NBC Dateline the interviewer also responses "Oh, yeah. He really means five eight”.
Click Here Brad says on 23/Mar/07
I've never understood how anybody could think this guy was over 5' 9". Just look at those shoes he wears, they smell big stealth height addition to get up to the taller "friends". Marcel says on 21/Mar/07
Brad - you have it right. Its amazing how he can look only an inch shorter than Perry one episode and then 3 inches shorter the next. My barometer - the scene with Jeff Goldblum who is 6'4'', he looked like 8 inches taller or something. If it was proven Le Blanc is anything over 5'9'' barefoot I would sell my house. Brad says on 16/Mar/07
Wears stealth footwear. He's 5' 9" in my opinion. aj says on 7/Mar/07
Le Blanc has always looked a fair bit shorter than the other male cast members so I bet 5-10 is about. By the way Mr D Schiwmmer is definatly taller than 5-11 he's 6-1 at least Jada Montega says on 5/Feb/07
That dude is about 5-10.5 i seen him one time at a show and he wasn't really that short cool guy only problem was he brushed me and didn't even acknowledge it. Wat a jerk!!! Leung says on 21/Jan/07
Matthew Perry 5'10"? come on get real. albi says on 20/Jan/07
I also invoke Paul Rudd :)
That guy has a big head that makes him look shorter, like Chris Benoit. When I first saw him at Friends, my first thought was "finally someone shorter than Joey." Well, it turned out they were the very same height. Joey does not look average in Friends, he looks terribly short. Mostly more than 10cm shorter than everyone he meets during the sitcom. Maybe 5'10" is very short nowadays. I am that height, and in many cases I am the shortest of the group. hb45 says on 13/Jan/07
Matt LeBlanc 5'10" (178cm), Perry 6' (182cm), Schwimmer 6'1.5" or 6'2" (187/188cm). But it's possible that Matt LeBlanc wears lifts to reduce the difference in height compared to the other actors of Friends... Mr D says on 20/Dec/06
Le Blanc is 5ft 9in; Perry 5ft 10in; & Schwimmer around the 5ft 11in - 6ft mark. joey says on 20/Dec/06
yer because bruce willis is 6ft when i stand next to him because im 5ft 11 on the dot so matt must be about 5ft 10 which is tall anyway and perry tends to wear lifts at premiers and stuff when i have seen him in person
i have a photo with him and on the photo he is wearing lifts and is about an inch and a half off me so he is about 5ft 11.5 Glenn says on 1/Dec/06
Seemed 5-9.5,5-10 when I saw him 9 years ago. G-unit says on 1/Dec/06
That guy isn't short. I'd say at least 5'10, but it is kind of obvious that he wear lifts. TJ says on 12/Nov/06
Viper, if Perry is 5'10, Bruce Willis is 5'9. Not likely. I think Perry is between 5'11 and 6'0. Chris says on 11/Nov/06
Matt Le Blanch is about 5'10'' Matthew Perry close to 6, Schwimmer 6'1''. dmeyer says on 1/Nov/06
it is true that he wears 1.5 in to 1.75 in most of the time in friends but i dont think he is less than 5'10 since he lookes 6 ft in shoes Brad says on 1/Nov/06
Le Blanc wears boots/thick soled shoes in most everything he is in. He's about 5 feet 9.5 inches. He's always looking up at the other male actors on Friends. MOF says on 31/Oct/06
Damian Lewis is listed as 6 feet on CB not 6'1". And yes, Schwimmer did look taller, but no taller than 6'1" in comparison. Josh says on 26/Oct/06
In Joey sometimes he looks shorter than his co star Paulo Costanzo who is 5'10 so hes not a solid 5'10 also look at pictures of them toguther hes a bit shorter than Paulo hes 176cm 177cm max he always wear boots and stuff i wouldnt give him more than 176cm 5'9. Friends Fan says on 2/Sep/06
Was watching an episode of Married With Children with Matt Le Blanc in it last night. He was standing next to Al bundy alias Ed O' Neil and looked 5'9 because O' Neil is 6'1 or was back then when it was filmed. pussy_baba says on 1/Sep/06
c mon editor rob this guy i say is no more than 5 feet 8.5. even u know it i bet but i dont know why u dont downgrade heights of some people who r clearly shoeter than their listed height even here.this guy i know for sure is 5 feet 8 inches maybe 5 feet 9 max to max not a whisker above it.u might have seen him barefoot many times in joey sitcom and everyone knows he wears lifts inside shoes and his shoes too are special which can accomodate lifts. heis still a lot shorter than 6 feet david schwimmer.a lil short than perry and perry for sure is 5 feet 11 at max he cud even be 5 feet 10.75 or 5 feet 10.5 dmeyer says on 13/Aug/06
i think he is a strong 178 like 5 10.25 Conner Iannone says on 10/Aug/06
Le Blanc looked the same height (nearly) as Schwimmer and Perry in the show and in other scenes he looked a good 3 inches or 4 shorter! Don't tell me TV stars wear massive lifts too. Nelson Heights says on 17/Jul/06
If Le Blanc is over 5'9 id be mega shocked! dmeyer says on 26/May/06
5'10.25 is possible Anonymous says on 25/May/06
ofcourse the point is : matt is wearing lifts.
On friends you must look at the scenes where his height is minimum not the max!
You see matt about a couple cm shorter than perry but I've also seen him (compared to perry who is min max 5ft11.5) as 5ft9.
Height Expert says on 11/Apr/06
Leung...i dont know which standards your'e talking about because 5'10 is not short...5'10 can only be short if the average guy is 6 feet tall .. so i guess 5'10 is a perfectly normal height for a guy . Leung says on 9/Apr/06
The reason why many people think Le Blanc looks short is because by today’s standards 5’10” is short. Height Expert says on 8/Apr/06
All those people who think LeBlanc is less than 5'10 have no idea what they're talking about...i have watched all episodes of friends and it is very obvious that LeBlanc is no less than 5'10 ...the guy is about an inch shorter than Mattew Perry whose close to 6 ..Even if he hasw lifts he cannot look so tall all the time. I dont know what satisfaction people derive by downgrading ppl's heights.
rwfender says on 18/Mar/06
I saw an episode of Friends with Paul Rudd as the guest. Paul Rudd was talking to Matt LeBlanc and they looked right around the same height. Paul Rudd is listed as 5'9 on here. LeBlanc is hard to tell...he looks anywhere from 5'9-5'10 TJ says on 24/Feb/06
Look again rW. If Matt's head was straight, there would be an inch difference, max. See the height of the shoulders. That pic doesn't prove much though as it's a publicity still that's likely doctored. dmeyer says on 8/Feb/06
when he wears boots he looks close to 6' so he is aleast 5'10 i cant buy anithing under 5'10 No_name says on 4/Feb/06
I just saw the episode in which Friends are in Las Vegas and Joy works in a casino dressed as a gladiator.He was wearing the flatest sandals in the world and was clearly 1-1,5 inch taller than 5' 9"-175cm Liza Cudrow.And no one can be suspicious of Cudrow,she always looks tall in flat.So,that makes him 5' 10" "and a half maybe". End of story.-
Anonymous says on 10/Dec/05
Matt LeBlanc ALWAYS had boots or thick soled Docker type shoes on in Friends, the few scenes where he is barefoot next to Schimmer and Perry show a clear height difference - I'd say:
Leblanc - 5'9.5"
Perry - 5"11.5"
Schimmer - 6'0.5"
Neither of these three is more than that. Willis looked 5'11" in Friends, Selleck 6'4" and Bradd Pitt 5'11" levi says on 6/Dec/05
yeah but who cares because youre so fit and I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Betel says on 29/Nov/05
I think he is fairly tall at 5'9.5 - 5'10.5 but looks shorter due to his proportions. Plenty of people who are 5'10 look short even if they are 5'11 in shoes. Anonymous says on 16/Oct/05
this pic with leno is weird because leno looks taller than schwimmer Rien says on 7/Oct/05
I am 5'10.5". I think that Matt is surely between 5'9" and 5'10" He doesnt seem big, All of the actors usually change their true height, besides, one thing is to be measured with shoes and anotherthing is without shoes.
[Editor Rob: remember the episode where Jeff Goldblum was doing a scene. When that guy straightened up he made leblanc look in that range!] Anonymous says on 9/Aug/05
i saw evey episode of friends and i think le blanc look aroud 179 or a minimum of 178 cm Josh says on 2/Aug/05
I agree with jack there´s no way this guy is 5'10 (178cm)without shoes he must be 5'9 (175cm) barefoot tops in a good day hehe. leonari says on 29/Jun/05
Yeah JOEY is alwys wearing the ugliest shoes, boots...makes you wonder...The guy is never ever 5'10.5...5'8.5 max Mr. R says on 27/Jun/05
I love that line - that Schwimmer and Perry are only an inch taller than him. That counts as the funniest thing I have heard today! (Look closely at his footwear in the Friends shows - he is always in big heeled boots, and is still way shorter than his male co-stars.) Mr. R says on 27/Jun/05
Raj, remember that Matt may have been skinnier when he first got to Hollywood. I agree that he does not now have the model body type, but he had that fresh scrubbed look that was popular a while back. Ricardo says on 27/Jun/05
Yeah Rob i think its about time to downgrade this guy... you know a new month is around the corner so its time to tell the truth. Those of us who have watched band of brothers know that schwimmer aint no 6'2" because he stood next to Damian Lewis who is 6'0" and they were the same height. My brother is 6'0" and my father is 6'2" and my father is taller than my brother, so i know how 6'2" looks compared to 6'0". If Schwimmer isn't 6'2" then Perry cannot be the 6'1" he claims because he is SHORTER than Schwimmer... do the math. Thus Perry must be about 5'11", our dear friend Rob managed to get that correct at least... Now those of us who watch this show (not the earlier version when leblanc used to wear lifts and was only a little shorter than Perry) will know that both Perry an Scwimmer shrimp Leblanc. My best friend is 5'9" my other friend is 5'11" i KNOW how a 5'11" person looks next to a 5'9" person. Well Leblanc doesn't look that tall next to Perry. I have another friend who is 5'7". And Leblanc doesn't look that short compared to Perry. Thus the only conclusion i can come up with is that he MUST be between 5'7" and 5'9" so... there is only one number and that is 5'8" and that is how tall he is, he might be half an inch more but he still doesn't make it to 5'9" maybe in his morning height he does i dunno. At least put him at 5'9" Rob.
San says on 26/Jun/05
Editor Rob, Mathew Perry is listed at 5'11" on this website and LeBlanc is 2 inches shorter than him. (see the pic I had posted earlier). How can you still have him listed at 5'10.25"? leonari says on 6/Jun/05
My best Friend met Matt LeBlanc while he was filming this strange transvestite Film in Austria and Hungary. My Friend is a solid 5'10"(1m78cm), I measured him myself. He said Leblanc was at least 2 inches shorter than him and maybe a good inch taller than me (5'7"). Matt is 5'8", maybe a tad above and if anybody is a friends or joey sitcom fan he would realize that Matt is ALWAYS wearing very ugly shoes with a bit of a heel ,never sneakers...Now why do you think that is?????? I don't understand how people can think he is above 5'10". Even on TV he never looks tall but always average. Please dear editor do us all a favor and downgrade this guy.thanks J. says on 1/May/05
The transcript below is more proof that he is the 5'8" that he appears to be. I know from experience that if a person who is shorter than you questions the height you tell them, then you're most likely lying. For instance, a buddy of mine wrote 6'3" on his driver's license. We all were like "You're 6'3?! More like 6'0!!!". So, yeah, LeBlanc got busted in a white lie, the Hollywood way. Mr. R says on 29/Apr/05
While I think that Matt is exaggerating about his height (there are lots of shots with him in thick soled boots), I do want to give him a little slack on this modeling thing. I used to work in downtown LA near the Fashion District. I would go over to the showroom building for lunch sometimes, and the models would be prepping for shows. Without a doubt, the majority of the male models that I would see were from 6-0 to 6-3. Most of the women were from 5-9 to 6-0 in their heels. They prefer long and lean bodies for modeling, so while Matt was not completely excluded from the pool, he was a long shot. Also, my first audition in LA was for the Lion King, and I was stunned when I got there and all the men were 6-2 to 6-4, which made my 5'11.5" body feel like a shrimp! I do understand how Matt felt intimidated! Ricardo says on 28/Apr/05
How the hell can he be too short for a modelling agency at 5'10 1/2" ? 5'10 1/2" is pretty tall only 1 and a half inches under 6'0' and i here to be a male model you have to be 5'9" and over, he is not making any sense. He looks dead on 5'8.5" to me, and as for his Co stars Perry looks like about 5'11" to me and Schwimmer 6'0". watch band of brothers, Scwimmer is the same height as 6'0" Damian Lewis, he might be 6'0.5" but 6'1" seems a little too tall. Issheuhboy says on 22/Apr/05
AS I wrote on Matthew Perry, LeBlanc is suspicuious. Now, I know this is kinda vague, but did you see Jeff Golblum on Friends? Compare Jeff to LeBlanc, then Goldblum to his Will and Grace appearance with the 5'10 Eric McCormack and 5'11 Sean Hayes. Golblum was at least half a foot taller than LeBlanc. It's the old Hollywood tape measure + 2 trick - 5'8/9 I think. Tom says on 3/Apr/05
A while ago I saw Le Blanc on The tonight show and he was wearing sneekers. He was about 1 inch shorter than Leno. Maybe Jay is wearing lifts. I´s really hard to tell. John says on 1/Apr/05
Jay leno is not 5 11". He's 5 10" max. Ricardo says on 28/Mar/05
Hmm but u have to remember bothe perry and schwimmer are a full two inches shorter than what they are listed as, that would make him a full two inches shorter. tommy says on 20/Feb/05
Matt stood 1 full inch shorter than Jay Leno so i would say he's more like 5 9". There's no way he is 5 10". |
