I didn't think he looked 5'10" in Dexter. I could see 5'9.5". I was kind of split between 5'9" and 5'9.5" to be completely honest, and mildly surprised when I saw the full 5'10" here. Maybe 5'9.5" - 5'9.75"?

His proportions make him look shorter. He has a big neck, huge jaw structure, short arms and short-ish legs. Big head. But he’s never looked any shorter than 5-9.5. I think he’s a legit 5-9.5 to 5-10 but never used footwear to make himself look taller. He doesn’t seem to care about his height.

Hey Rob,
He seriously needs a downgrade to 5'9 flat.
Have a look at him next to Jack alcott ( who is strong 5'8) in the new dexter series premiere.

Editor RobCould it be a looser posture, because most of the time when watching Dexter, he looked about 5ft 10.

Hey Rob,
I think he is really 5'9 and he looks 5'9 too in Dexter and the new season.
Have a look at this with Julie Benz and James Remar( 5'9).

With Yvonne Strahovski, Michael looks to be about an inch or so taller. So 5'10 - 5'10.5 is a possible range. But more likely 5'10.25.

Looks more like 5’9”… 5’8” Jen Carpenter in heels consistently out-heights him, check the pics.
And Dexter: New Blood is pretty great so far.

Easy 5'10. Would be eye to eye with Daniel Craig. I don't see the point in bringing back Dexter but I'll watch it anyway.

Think there's a better chance of him measuring something like 5'10 1/8 or 5'10 1/4 than under the 5'10 mark. But 5'10 flat is a fair listing.

He looks a little under 5'10'' to me. 5'10'' flat is the highest I can see him, but nothing more than that.

Yeah, the first 4 seasons of Dexter were great and he really does consistently look a pretty honest 5'10" without thick shoes. It's clear he's taller than James Remar, whom Rob estimated 5'9" in person even after Dexter ended. Good photo with Marc, he looks about an inch taller, but looks to have around half an inch less footwear.

I've recently started watching Dexter (for the first time), and although I should see him with more people (that I know better), somewhere around 5'10 is quite believable for him. At the very worst 177, I guess... He certainly doesn't look any less than that with Marc Warren here (if Marc truly is near 174): Click Here

Been watching Dexter again and he's at least 2 inches taller than Jennifer Carpenter who's a strong 5'8. He looks identical to both David Zayas and Desmond Harrington who are around 5'11. He doesn't look to have any footwear advantage and has loose posture. I would argue that Michael C Hall is a strong 5'10.

I looked up Dexters height after seeing him with Jimmy Smits. Smits towers over Dexter and is huge in both height and bulk compared to Dexter. It surprises me how short actors are in America. I suppose it's because being 5.10 and a female and my sons are all over 6.4, 6 feet seems average. It must be the viking stock! I adore Dexter and couldn't care less how tall he is!

Thank you rob. And I have another question; How is better to measure your height, pushing your chin low, in your neck so the top of the back of the head will reach the maximum height, or having your chin a little bit higher, so the top of the front of your head will be higher. Personally I saw that if I push my chin lower so the top of the back of my head go higher, I gain 5 mm. Sorry for my english. Thank you again.

Editor Rob the idea is to try to keep your head level, don't raise your eyes up or lower your chin...when measuring most people I found would raise their eyelevel a bit. it doesn't really make much difference but, still I think trying to keep it level is best.

Rob, I have a question for you. I woke up at 10am and measured mayself after 6 hours(4pm) and my height was 182.7 and then measured myself again at night(2am), after 16 hours of only staying on my chair and on my feet, never lying in my bed, I had 182.2, so 5mm less than in the afternoon. So waht exactly will be my height rob, the second one or the first one? Thank you !

Editor Rob at worst you seem to hold 182 range, I'd just claim that, or if you use feet/inches, you are close to 6ft so about 6ft.

A few years ago Jennifer Carpenter was listed everywhere not under 177, but you can clearly see that she's shorter on Showtime's Dexter. Michael seems 176/177 while Desmond looks taller especially next do David Zayas who's 183/184. I can buy 177 for Michael and at least 180 for Desmond. Jennifer instead is probabily 175 top (you can see it especially when she's next to "Masuka" who's not over 164/165 and there's a big difference between the two).
Anyhow, I'm still watching Dexter, it is a wonderful show, probabily one of the best ever made. I wish it would continue with a Spin Off.

A true 5'10, rare case for an actor
Seriously you see so many ****ing actors lie about their height, we get it any shorter than 5'10 you are considered short in move land. But come the **** on, it pisses me off seeing so many guys lieing about their height and saying they're 5'10. Matt Damon is a good example of that.

Rob, How tall do you think Erik King (Doakes from Dexter) is? He always looked noticeably shorter than Dexter despite being listed at 5'10" (obviously a bogus listing). His bulk probably made him appear shorter, but I have a hard time believing he's taller than 5'8".
Editor Rob around 5ft 8 is ok
JAJ said on 23/Jan/14
He doesn't look 5'10" More like 5'9" or 5'9,5" (175-176cm). 100% sure he's no more than that.

Looks like he is 1-2 inches shorter than 5' 11" listed Desmond Harrington. Might be 5'9.5" - 5'9.25".
I don't know about shoe advantage, but have a look:

Jennifer Carpenter is 5'8'' (gets even listed as 5'8.5'' here). MCH is clearly taller than her in all photos were they both wear flat shoes. Just do the math. He's 5'10''.

Id say he is closer to 5'9 but definitely taller than 5'8....176cm seems spot on...5'10 in slippers

Perfect example of a man with a fairly proportional build.I too have a similar body type.Although my leg to torso ratio is pretty balanced.My observations are that guys 5'9 to 5'11 have got the most balanced proportions (normal head size and a strong looking body)

Hey Rob, i watched all seasons til the season seven in the last months. Hall always looked average tall to me. Some people are taller, some are smaller. I haven´t the impression of a tall or a small michael c hall yet. Do you think hall could possible be 1.76 or 1.75.5 (latet at day) like myself?

@HommeVert Maybe about 5'9.5", I met Desmond Harrington (Quinn from Dexter) and was marginally taller than him (I am 5'11" even, max) which woud lead me to believe he is about 5'10.5" - he always appears to have about an inch on Dex. Still, I think 5'10" is fair, he's probably about that in the morning.

He could be 176 or 177 cm, he's about 2 cm shorter than Desmond Harrington, and I don't believe he's the full 180, more like 178 or 179 cm.

1) Just glance at Ian Sommerhalder next to Rob. After Rob he is supposed to be 176 and they look like there's no difference on the photo in spite of 1 inch between them.
2) Now, look at "Desmond Harrington" photos supplied by Vayne. He stands next to MCH and then seems to tower him by 2 inches or so if Rob estimate of Ian is correct.
MCH really must be in the 175-177 fork.

Definately no less than 5'10", he just has the look of a tall guy. Most of the other males on Dexter are about 6ft+ and he never looks much shorter than them.

Agree with Tyler on this one.....he's got broad shoulders and a strong upper body which makes anyone look taller than they actually are. So even though he's 5ft 10 he easily passes for 6ft.

He's listed as 5'10.5", but sure looks like a dwarf next to Smits at 6'3".
Of course, shoes, etc and camera angles play a part. If I had to guess, I'd give him a shade over 5'9" barefoot.

Loved Dexter. 5'10", Are you positive? the "Ice Truck Killer" was described as average in height, yet Dexter was always considerably shorter than "The ice truck killer". However, because it is a T.V. series, I am open to the possibility that the "Ice Truck Killer" is perhaps above average height. Nevertheless, Hall appeared more of a 5'9"er to me. But, whats and inch? lol
