Good pic with Travolta. 6' seems to be dead on. bad posture accounts for him looking 5-11ish and boots/his slim build account for him looking closer to 6'1". It all fits with Cage being 6 feet.

Dude--don't rag on Rusty, he's a high school gym coach and earns every single one of the 30000 dollars he gets each year. As a gym coach. And kids, that's the main reason why a couple of inches means nothing.
Hugh 191cm says on 28/Oct/09
Looked close to 6ft2 in Gone in Seconds but barely over 5ft11 in Weather Man?
George H. says on 27/Oct/09
Cage wears massive heels on the outside of his footwear most of the time, so I wouldn't be surprised if he has something hidden on the inside as well. He was in dubious footwear in almost every interview I've seen of him.
Anonymous says on 26/Oct/09
Rusty you are a pompous show off. We don't really need to know about your opinions on what is tall and what isn't. Back to the point, Cage looks more 5'11 than 6'0 these days especially in that photo with 6'1 Jim Carrey.
Hugh 191cm says on 26/Oct/09
Frank2 saw 6ft1! so don't know what to beleive. He can look 6ft1 often enough.
DejaVu says on 26/Oct/09
The listing is bang on. He could be a little less than 6 when he slouches but straightened up, he gives an illusion of 6'1.
Anne says on 23/Oct/09
6' but he doesn't slouch as mentioned below as much as he juts his head forward. He's obviously a body builder or has been for action movies. The problem is if you do this seriously without either Yoga, Ballet or deep stretching your posture can do some funny things to compensate for all the muscles that are selectively "worked on".
jf says on 21/Oct/09
Carrey TOWERS Cage in that pic. Jeez. Just flat out obliterates him.
Hugh 191cm says on 18/Oct/09
183-184cm barefoot and 185-186cm in shoes
Hugh 191cm says on 16/Oct/09
6ft0.5 out of bed and 6ft at night.
newman says on 9/Oct/09
i think he is about 180 cm barefoot and can hit 183 max with heels
Hugh 191cm says on 8/Oct/09
6ft-6ft1.
JD says on 3/Oct/09
he's gotta be at least 6'0, maybe 6'1 in his prime. he's always looked a bit tall - usually he's the tallest person in the movie he's in.
TELLEM says on 16/Sep/09
thats the shoulder trick that makes you slouch. cage is in worse posture than jim carrey.
shakila says on 15/Sep/09
I think he is around 1.80 to 1.85 m and its ok . He is an actor not a ladder . And guys dont trust photos and movies . If you have seen him face to face maybe you can claim that you know how tall is he exactly.Any way its a fact that he is shorter than jim carrey. it doesnt need to be proved.
RisingForce says on 14/Sep/09
Cage also looked noticeably taller than Ving Rhames in the same film, Frank. And I agree with your opinion of the movie.
Frank2 says on 10/Sep/09
I watched the lousy remake of KISS OF DEATH. In it, Cage appeared to be as tall as David Caruso. I used to see Caruso on the Fox lot bak when he starred in NYPD BLUE. He looked to be six feet.

Yeah I mean the 6'0.5" Jim Carrey absolutely DWARFS Cage in that pic. Just destroys him...
Original says on 7/Sep/09
5'11.5" is good for Nicolas Cage.
Frank2 says on 5/Sep/09
Leung, pardon me, but you're not cognizant of how the film industry operates. That was a Jerry Bruckheimer production that Disney released. It was not a Walt Disney Production. There is a significant difference.

You haven't even seen it and you're surprised I'd watch a film like it? I don't get it.
GUK says on 4/Sep/09
I'd give him 5ft 11 min (a little taller then sean bean), but def not quite 6ft barefoot (the carey photo proves that). A weak 6ft I could live with
jf says on 4/Sep/09
I would have pegged him for a 185cm man (just under 6'1"). I'm shocked at by how much Jim Carrey dwarfs him in that picture. Wow.
Leung says on 4/Sep/09
Frank2,
Released by Walt Disney Pictures therefore yes it is a Disney flick. And since I haven't seen it I can't comment on it's entertainment value.

But back to heights I agree with your 6' estimate for Cage.
Frank2 says on 3/Sep/09
"Leung says on 2/Sep/09
Frank2 watching Walt Disney flicks, for some reason that just seems odd to me."

Why? First of all, the film isn't a 'Disney flick' since it was produced by Jerry Bruckheimer Films and released by Disney. Secondly, it's an entertaining film. Or does a movie have to be filled with filth, violence and destruction before it reaches the criteria level of being considered good entertainment?
Gonzalo says on 3/Sep/09
A friend of my brother saw Cage recently in New york and he said Cage was very tall. My brother´s friend is 1`76-77 so I guess Cage is at least 1`82-83
Leung says on 2/Sep/09
Frank2 watching Walt Disney flicks, for some reason that just seems odd to me.
RisingForce says on 2/Sep/09
I'm not sure about lifts, but he does wear boots with heels ocassionally. Click Here Click Here

Maybe Jim Carrey is pushing down on him a bit here? Click Here

In general he looks like he's 6 feet when he stands straight so I'd say your in person estimate of 6' is accurate. I use to think he was 5'11" because of his posture, but he has the build of a legit 6' guy and he can look even taller than that.
Frank2 says on 1/Sep/09
Cage was about two to three inches shorter than Jon Voight in NATIONAL TREASURE: BOOK OF SECRETS. I just watched it. Voight is officially listed at 6'3".

Click Here

Cage against a police height chart:

Click Here

So this is interesting. I saw cage looking a solid six feet. His shoes didn't look like they had lifts. But I happen to know that Jon Voight is not 6'3", but was 6'2" prime and is now about 6'1". The height chart is from a movie and could be bogus. So perhaps Cage is 5'11" and wore lifts the day I saw him. I don't see him any shorter than 5'11". And he still might be six feet. I didn't see obvious lifts on him in NATIONAL TREASURE.
notpip says on 30/Aug/09
I knew Nicholas Cage as a child; we went to elementary school together, and he was always taller than the other kids.
Frank2 says on 11/Aug/09
When I saw Cage he was taller than me by at least an inch and I'm 5'11". I didn't notice any lifts.
TELLEM says on 11/Aug/09
there is no way cage is 6'1. look at him with 5'11 tom sizemore, who also has terrible posture. cage is more like 5'11, 6'0 max
yoyo says on 11/Aug/09
i simply see Nicholas Cage as 5ft10.75 barefoot then 6ft, because is obvious cage often wore bigger shoelift than his co-star. def a strong 180cm guy.
Michael.B says on 6/Aug/09
Cage is a little over 6ft Click Here
RisingForce says on 5/Aug/09
That's because Cage is probably 6'1" or close to it when he stands up straight, he has a thin frame and he wears boots often while Kilmer is a flat 6 feet and heavier.
Mister Lennon says on 2/Aug/09
The strange thing is that in the trailer of his new film, the remake of bad litenaunt , Cage is easily 2 inches taller than Val Kilmer, if not more.Lifts??? Is Cage more than 6?? Or is Kilmer less than 6??? Very Weird.
Tall I Guess says on 26/Jul/09
Iwandered on this discussion by chance. I was watching the movie "Next" with Nicholas Cage and thought he was very skinny and googled that. I was surprised about the discussion of height. I am 6'6". I never think about being tall. My wife is 5'4". It alwasy seems strange to me that people care about height. I guess if I were 5' I would think differently. My wife has a friend that is a physician that is 3'2". No kidding. You may have seen her on TV. A show called Little Couple. I am just happy there is so much variety. Makes the world a beautiful place.
dmeyer says on 24/Jul/09
he can look 182 alot laely e culd be 5 ft 11.5 o 5 ft 11.75 but i think he is he kind of guy wo ooks 5 ft 11 in pics bu when you meet im in person he is easy 6 ft
RisingForce says on 28/Jun/09
Didn't Frank2 say that Cage looked 6'1" to him? I can buy 6'1" for Cage if he stood straight.
Nismofreak says on 24/Jun/09
Cage is a legit 6 footer. At times, he does look 6'1.
Clay says on 20/Jun/09
Akirum, I grew 8 inches after 18. There is no limit to how much someone can grow after 18.

By the way Ben Lyons was a good 3 or 4 inches taller than Cage when he interviewed him on the Sorcerers apprentice set.
Lenad says on 20/Jun/09
6ft0 max for Cage
Lenad says on 20/Jun/09
Carrey being 6ft1 or taller i do buy
Lenad says on 20/Jun/09
yeah a 6ft1 Nick cage would equal a 6ft3 Jim Carrey. If Cage is 6ft0 min then Carrey is 6ft2 if not a bit more which is just ridiculos
Lenad says on 12/Jun/09
I suspect hes 6ft0 at best. hes clearly shorter than jim Carrey who is 6ft2 max so we can throw the 6ft1 claims of cage in the volcano
Evan Faine says on 1/Jun/09
After looking at him next to Tom Sizemore, I'm gonna have to go with either 5'11" or 5'11.5" max.
TELLEM says on 31/May/09
hes no more than 6'0, could even be a tad under...look at him with 5'11 tom sizemore: Click Here Click Here
Josh.J says on 30/May/09
i seriously doubt that he's 6'1. this is a link of pics with cage and jay baruchel filming "sorcerer's apprentice". jay is just under 6'0 on celebheights.

Click Here

looks very similar and no suspect shoes. infact i think baruchel might have half an inch on him. 6ft max for cage but more likely he's between that and 5'11.
GUK says on 30/May/09
But then explain the Carey photo!
gilipollas says on 30/May/09
6 feet WITH BOOTS ON. So 5.11 max for nick.
Alex2401 says on 30/May/09
Michael Caine had 2inces on him whole movie.So either Cage height is not ok either
Caines height...
RisingForce says on 29/May/09
It's his terrible posture that makes him look shorter. I use to think he was 5'11" because of it., but standing up straight he's clearly a legit 6 footer, possibly 6'1".
Hugh 190cm says on 27/May/09
OilTheMan. Chances are you will probably be over the 6ft mark. like 6ft1 or 6ft2, maybe even 6ft3.
Evan Faine says on 26/May/09
Click Here
Even standing straight up, I don't think he can hit 6'. Barefoot he's probably 5'11" or 5'11.25".

He still kicks ass, no matter how tall. Face/Off rules!
OliTheMan says on 23/May/09
hey everyone - I'm 5"10" and 16. dyou think I can make it to 6 ft? or even 5"11"?
GUK says on 8/May/09
The weird thing is when I first saw Cage in a film I thought he was tall i.e. 6ft 1 or more, but he's just quite tall and very skinny which gives a biger illusion.
The Carey Pic (a true 6ft 1.5) puts him slightly under 6ft, which adds up to how he measures against Sean Bean and Carusso.
Josh.J says on 21/Apr/09
he needs to be downgraded. saw con air again and he was shorter than ving rhymes (who had heel advantage). cage is more like 5'11 who often wears cowboy boots.
Akirum says on 20/Apr/09
Cage is a strong 6 ft, and I think he could claim 6 ft 1 and that would not be out of the bounds of legitimacy.

OliTheMan: If you are 5 ft 10 at age 16 you have a good chance of growing 1 or 2 inches taller. Lots of men continue growing into their early twenties, and generally by age 20 to 24 they have achieved full stature. I was 5 ft 11 1/4 in tall at age 18, but at age 22 I am now 6 feet even, depending on how much sleep I get. (the longer my spine has to retract, the taller I generally am the next day).
Rusty says on 12/Apr/09
Well guys tend to take more after their mom's height. So how tall she is has alot to do with this. Also when you started puberty has a huge impact because you may be done growing. Look a few comments down and you can see that I started freshman year at 5'10" 10th grade at 6', junior year at 6'2" and then stopped later at 6'3". Im skinny too, I weigh only 170.
OliTheMan says on 11/Apr/09
Hey Rusty, Jon, whoever? I have a question; i'm 5"10 and im sixteen, my older bro (21) and my dad are same height as me but i have lower shoulders than them, yet i reach their height cus i have a big head. i also have bigger hands and feet (though im quite skinny). dyou think I will grow taller than them by leveling them shoulder-by-shoulder or will i just stay this height from now on? just wondering.

Rusty says on 6/Apr/09
I coach the football team at the high school i teach at also. There are about 3,000 kids at the school. It is in LA so we have a huge diverse group of kids from all racial backgrounds. We measure and weigh all of the football players and I would say about 30-40% of them are at least 6 foot.
jon says on 5/Apr/09
Could very well be possible Rusty, if they are truly 6-feet at the age of 14. Again though your sample of schoolkids would not be the norm, by far. It's not common to find a 6-foot 14 year old, and much less common to find a classroom full with them, lol
Rusty says on 29/Mar/09
So that would mean that most of the people who start 9th grade at 6' would end up being like 6'2" or something?
jon says on 28/Mar/09
Rusty, that' exactly correct, but the growth rate slows down once you've reached that 80% of your height around the ages of 14-16. People who grow 5 inches after the age of 15 are rare.
Rusty says on 24/Mar/09
I read that the average man stops growing at 17, the same age that i stopped at. I started my freshman year at 5'10", sophomore year at 6', junior year at 6'2" and stopped at 6'3" halfway through junior year a few months after i turned 17.
jon says on 24/Mar/09
Rusty, most high school freshmen are 14-15, exactly the age the majority of kids reach their full adolescent height. It isn't young at all. And while I don't know if you live in a city or not, an ordinary high school class isn't a good pool to judge an average by. And Rusty, 6'3" and up is VERY tall anywhere where you are. In fact it's *restrictively* tall a number of things.
Rusty says on 24/Mar/09
I have to disagree there. I teach at a high school and many of the freshman are 6' already, its not that tall, its just 2 inches above average. Im 6'3" and tower alot of people, but my height is nothing amazing either.
jon says on 22/Mar/09
Hugh2 and Rusty, do you realize you guys live in your own bubbles of height appreciation? I'm 6-foot even. Although I may see many people taller than I, I do realize I'm MUCH taller than the average American man. It's worthwhile to realize that the reason why you may have the illusion that people "are taller" now, as opposed to an earlier generation, is rather for the fact that there are more people around us than ever before (look at population statistics). And by its causation, the appearance of a higher height average in younger generations. This is especially apparent if you live in a city and are around many people. It is not, as it may seem to you, that people on average are taller than they were a generation ago.
Hugh2 says on 20/Mar/09
If you come from a family of genuinely tall people like I do than you'd realize how untall 183cm really is. I myself am 6ft2.75 but I have an uncle on my mother's side of the family whose 6ft and completely stands out. My dad is 6ft3.25 (6ft4 peak), My brother is 6ft3.5, my dad's uncles are 6ft4, 6ft6 and 6ft4.5 respectively. My mother is 5ft10.5 and my sister 5ft10 who in a pair of heels would be taller than him.

To be fair 6ft used to be a tall height because back 30 years ago when my uncle would have been a young man 6ft was the '6ft4' of it's day. A 6ft man would've been considered very tall. Nowadays it's halfway between the average height and tall.
Rusty says on 19/Mar/09
Yeah the younger generation is certainly taller. I am a high school teacher and many students at the school are 6 foot when they start their freshman years.
dani says on 17/Mar/09
"o, 5'9" is not average, it is below average. Trust me on this, im 6'3" and see people taller than me every day. Average now is a strong 5'10" and for current youths ive noticed closer to 5'11". 6' is not tall, but its a decent height to be, im sure."

You're wrong as you can be. 5"9 is everywhere in the US. I live in the tallest state in the US(Minnesota) which has an average of 5"11 for men and 5"7 for women and even here i see many short people in the streets. Short people meaning 5"7 or less. You're being in denial, our height average for men is 5"9.25 like it is in England and many developed countries. I agree that younger generations are taller............
dani says on 17/Mar/09
I disagree with Hugh on his opinion of 6 foot. A 6footer is always tall everywhere. A 6footer is 3 inches taller than the average which is 5"9 in America. Worldwide average height for men is 5.678 so a 6footer would feel pretty good elsewhere.
TELLEM says on 17/Mar/09
on the basketball court or in wrestling
Rusty says on 17/Mar/09
I agree with Hugh completely on his opinion of 6 foot. I dont really find it tall, but its a good 2 inches above average and a 6 footer will never feel short, except on the basketball court.
\\-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 14/Mar/09
6ft isn't really that tall. It's above average but not genuinely tall. Cage is a solid 6ft guy. Perhaps 183cm-184cm would be bang on.
RisingForce says on 11/Mar/09
He must have been slouching more next to Jim Carrey than the picture showed. Carrey is in the 6'1" to 6'1.5" range and no taller in my opinion and now I'd put Cage in the 6'0"-6'1" range so Carrey appearing 2 inches taller in a full body shot picture is odd.
Leung says on 8/Mar/09
Yeah he sure did have you fooled RisingForce.
Anonymous says on 7/Mar/09
Umm duh you're going to see people taller than you everyday lol, it's not like you're 7 feet.
thekiddd says on 6/Mar/09
IMO, I think your not tall until you stand 6'2".
Rusty says on 6/Mar/09
No, 5'9" is not average, it is below average. Trust me on this, im 6'3" and see people taller than me every day. Average now is a strong 5'10" and for current youths ive noticed closer to 5'11". 6' is not tall, but its a decent height to be, im sure.
RisingForce says on 5/Mar/09
I think I may have been fooled by his truly horrendous posture. When he stands up straight(which is rare) I now see him taller than 6 foot flat. Probably 6'0.25", 6'0.5" but possibly 6'1".

His posture is really awful though. It looks like he slouches on purpose!
Anonymous says on 4/Mar/09
Average American man's height: 5'9.25"
Rusty says on 28/Feb/09
To answer the questions below of what is considered tall, I will give my opinion on the issue. The avergage American man is a little over 5'10" so 6' really isnt a tall height as its not even 2 inches above average. I am 6'3" and I see people taller than me almost everyday. 1% on average reach 6'4", so that is quite a tall height, but nothing amazing.

Here is what I classify as the different height groups for men:

Midget=Under 5'4"
Pathetically short=5'4" to 5'6"
Short=5'7" to 5'9"
Average=5'10" to 6'0"
Mildly Tall=6'1" to 6'2"
Tall=6'3" to 6'5"
Very Tall=6'6" to 6'8"
Freakishly Tall=6'9" and above
Hugh says on 9/Feb/09
Actualy what am I saying. Willis is 6ft1.
glenn says on 6/Feb/09
willis claims 6-1,and i see 6-1.therefore,i dont see that as fake.
Hugh says on 6/Feb/09
6ft is tall. But you would'nt brag about being tall if you're only 183cm. Well actually I'd say genuinely tall is like 6ft1 onwards. But a legit 6ft1. Not a fake 6ft1 like Bruce Willis. A legit 6ft1 guy would actually claim 6ft1-6ft2.

6 Feet IS tall and nick cage does look tall with his build
Jon says on 3/Feb/09
James, i don't know how someone at 5ft 11 can think 6ft 1 isnt that tall. thats crazy! to me, 6ft 1 and above is very tall, 5ft 10 to 6ft is tall and 5ft 8 and 5ft 9 is average. but thats just me because people in the UK are rarely above 6ft 1 anyway. but.... yeh i still think 6ft 1 is very tall, and im an inch & half off of it.
Jon says on 1/Feb/09
PaulPierce4Ever, 6ft IS tall! its well above average height. judging by your comment your probably pretty tall yourself. but trust me, 6ft is tall. Im half an inch shy of 6ft myself, and i still get people commenting on my height.
PaulPierce4Ever says on 30/Jan/09
Is described as a "tall good-looking guy" in Matchstick Men, but 6 ft isn't tall
Lenad says on 22/Jan/09
I can buy a strong 182cm at the lowest. If Cage is 6ft2 then Jim Carrey is like 6ft3 though.

Jon says on 21/Jan/09
In Ghost Rider, Cage looks a solid 6ft. Even though he has quite a relaxed posture in that film with a bit of slouching, you can still tell that he is fairly tall. The least i'd put Cage at is 5ft 11.75in(182cm), and thats pretty much 6' anyway coz 183cm technically is just over 6'. Its just rounded up.
runt says on 14/Jan/09
Those are monstrous heels, GUK, and they use the "clown shoe" effect so that the angle doesn't look as extreme as it is.
AG says on 14/Jan/09
About 12 years ago, i was always thinking that Cage was a really tall man, i mean more than 6ft, maybe 6'1. His slim frame, long arms and long legs was giving me that impression. But now, after seeing that photo with Carrey, i started to believe that he could be 5'11. Maybe if he didn't hunch too much, he could look like 6ft, or just a little over.
GUK says on 13/Jan/09

After the Carey pic I'm convinced of 5ft 11 max, confirms the Carusso pic
Hugh says on 10/Jan/09
COuld've sworn I saw 6ft2 in Leaving Las Vegas. He seemed so much taller than James Caan.
RisingForce says on 9/Jan/09
I think he still is whatever he was in his 20's. 44 seems young to lose height.

He's tricky because sometimes he really gives the impression of a guy well over six feet but when he stands next to some people he under six feet. For example look at him next to Jim Carrey, Pierce Brosnan, Sean Connery, Samuel L Jackson and Lionel Richie.

But he can look as high as 6-1. I'm not sure if he looks taller than he is because of the boots he often wears and his slim frame or if his poor posture makes him look shorter than he is. A lot of variables with Cage.
RisingForce says on 7/Jan/09
Insider is a really funny guy.

He says 5-7 for Chuck Norris, 5-7 for Antonio Banderas, 5-8 for Johnny Depp, 5-10 for Nicolas Cage and 5-8 for Chris Rock.

it seems that he shaves 2 inches off of everyone's height!
RON says on 6/Jan/09
im 6.25 barefoot. met nic cage and i was taller with my converse on. he was wearing regular shoes. i give him a 5-11 at the most.
glenn says on 5/Jan/09
alex has been doing alot of downgrading lately.thats not like him.
RisingForce says on 4/Jan/09
Alex says on 1/Jan/09
Easily 6'0 at his peak. He could be as low as 5'11 today.

He's 44, I doubt he's lost height.
RisingForce says on 3/Jan/09
Yeah but he usually looks somewhere between 5-11 to 6-1. I've never seen him look as low as 5-10 flat, even slouching.

I do think the full body shot picture next to Jim Carrey suggests that he could be 5-11 or 5-11.5 though.
Click Here

Carrey is listed at 6-1.5 here. Glenn initially said 6-1 but also said that he didn't have a problem with 6-1 or 6-2. Mr. R said about 6-1 but Frank2 said 6-2.

I think for now Rob's 6-1.5 listing is the best. If that's accurate then Cage looks 5-11.5 or 6-0 with Carrey.
Hugh says on 3/Jan/09
This guy is worse than Viper.

Easily 6'0 at his peak. He could be as low as 5'11 today.

He's a joke and if he keeps throwing insults around then he should be banned.

Chuck Norris at 5-7 and Nicolas Cage at 5-10 is hilarious.
glenn says on 31/Dec/08
why would anyone give this guy attention? especially risingforce.rising asked rob if this guy is legit.who cares if he is or isnt? his gauging is wrong.nothing against anyone.
leonari says on 31/Dec/08
Insider: WOW. You really have some "inside" info on stars. 5'10" for Cage is a new one. You give me a whole new perspective on life here. Thank you so much. You are off and as rising said: If someone would put you at gunpoint and ask you to half way accurately tell folks height it would end up in execution. For you that is.

Insider, first Chuck Norris at 5-7 and now Nicolas Cage at 5-10?

You may have met them(or you may be lying) but either way you can't judge height to save your life.
Insider says on 28/Dec/08
Anyone care to explain this picture? I've always known he was closer to 5'10

But then again what do I know, I've only met him half a dozen times.

Hugh says on 27/Dec/08
Okay 6ft3 is unrealistic. 6ft2 he can look at times due to his proportions. I'd say he's between 6ft and 6ft1.
RisingForce says on 26/Dec/08
Like I said, I can see 6 feet even but that full body shot picture with Jim Carrey is really confusing.

I don't know, his limbs do look too long for a 5-11 guy except for Ghost Rider where he just looked 5-11 to me regardless. Usually it seems he has the proportions of a legit 6 footer though.
dmeyer says on 23/Dec/08
he can look as low as 5 ft 11.5 not under but he dosnt force posture he is laid back most of the times 183 184 barefeet
RisingForce says on 23/Dec/08
Exactly, he looked 5-11 in Ghost Rider too. He looks 6-1 sometimes, but never over it which is key.
RisingForce says on 22/Dec/08
He could be 5-11. He's not a full 6-1 though, he can look that tall but probably because of his slim frame and big heeled boots. With his slim frame and boots he'd look 6-2 or 6-3 once in a while if he was 6-1, and he never looks that tall.

He looks anywhere from 5-11 to 6-1 always.
Hugh says on 21/Dec/08
Cage isn't less than 6ft. 184-185cm I think is closer to the truth.
RisingForce says on 20/Dec/08
He didn't look much shorter than 6'3" Michael Rapaport in Kiss Of Death although he was shorter than David Caruso in some scenes(listed 5'11.5" here). In other scenes he was the same height or slightly taller than Caruso.

His height can be all over the place. I see some pictures and modies where he struggles at 5'11" and others where he looks like he's a strong 6'1".
RisingForce says on 11/Dec/08
Yeah he can give a 6'1" impression but with his thin frame and big heeled boots he should at times give an impression of taller than he is. Which is why I can't buy 6'1" at all since he never looks over that.

He looked tall in National Treausre 2 I thought but 5'11" throughout Ghost Rider.

I guess all of the times he looks 5'11" could be more because of his posture because he never really looks under that either hwoeevr he wa standing perfect straight when he looked 5'11" in the picture with Jim Carrey and Samuel L Jackson. He seemed to be standing straight when he looked 5'11" in the full body shot with Carrey too though.

Maybe he's 5'11.5"/5'11.75". Glenn mentioned quite a while ago that he saw him look 5-11ish once but thought it could have been posture, I believe he usually sees him at 6-0.5.

I agree with gonzalo and Bam though that he's 6'0" at best and possibly a bit under. Maybe not 5'11" flat though.
RisingForce says on 9/Dec/08
No way is he 6'1".
Hugh says on 9/Dec/08
Might be 6ft1 on a good day.
RisingForce says on 7/Dec/08
Keitel is slouching too. He is standing very casually with his hands in his posture, neck down(note how it seems he has almost no neck) and his legs are at an angle meaning he could be bending his knees. Many people say Keitel is now 5'7" flat in his late 60's, in fact many people thought that was his peak height.

Cage is in no way 6'1". 6'0" max.
Jay says on 5/Dec/08
He's definitely at least 6-feet, but 6'1" would be a better assessment.
RisingForce says on 3/Dec/08
4" max taller than Harvey Keitel here.
Click Here

Both are slouching. If Keitel is 5'7.5" then Cage looks 5'11.5" at best there. I believe Keitel was 5-8 peak but in his late 60's he's probably lost a little height.
RisingForce says on 2/Dec/08
I agree that he probably wouldn't Tellem. I think both Cage and Sizemore are around 5'11".
TELLEM says on 1/Dec/08
RisingForce says on 30/Nov/08
Tellem, people over 5'11" wear lifts too. In rare cases some over 6 foot wear them.

I don't think Tom wore lifts though. i think they're both around 5'11".

yea but sizemore? hes never been a major star...thats why it doesn't fit...but who knows

y would sizemore wear lifts if hes 5'11? watch the movie "bringing out the dead" him and cage look close in height
RisingForce says on 29/Nov/08
Sizemore is also a little closer to the camera so they both could seem about 5'11" in that picture, Cage is slouching a bit too. I don't think Sizemore is any more likely to wear lifts than Cage though. Cage is often seen in very suspicious shoes.
Anonymous says on 27/Nov/08

For once I agree with you. He looks 5'11" there.

Bad posture makes look below 6ft. Standing straight which he rarely does he can be 184-185cm. I really thought this guy was a legit 6ft1 until I discovered this site.
daii says on 21/Nov/08
It had him down as 6'1 in Face Off, looks it
Andrew says on 16/Nov/08
I agree with Anonymous Mr Cage always appeared to me on screen as a legit 6footer. 6ft0.5 max morning height 6ft evening height with shoes he can be 6ft1 to 6ft2 depending on how big he wants his shoes to be
Anonymous says on 12/Nov/08
I always thought this guy was at least 6ft1. But sure his lanky frame gives the impression he's taller. I think 6ft0.5 is his height.
anonymous says on 11/Nov/08
He looks very tall in some movies. Next to david letterman he looks tall. I would say 6 foot but i thought he was taller.

That jim carrey pic has got my head scratching a little

Doesn't surprise me. I've always thought he was around 5'11".

a hair over 6ft for me.
TELLEM says on 5/Nov/08
nevermind, cage had bad posture..travolta looked shorter
TELLEM says on 5/Nov/08
he looked shorter than john travolta in "face off"
RisingForce says on 5/Nov/08
I'd still guess 5'11" or 5'11.5" as most likely. 6'0" is reasonable too though. He certainly looks under 6 foot with Jim Carrey(both pictures) and Samuel L. Jackson.
runt says on 4/Nov/08
RisingForce, I don't see 2.5" between Cage and Carey, and I don't see a whole inch between Cage and Shields and I don't see 2 full inches between Cage and Connery. The rest of them I agree with.
RisingForce says on 4/Nov/08
I agree with dmeyer that the tallest he ever looks is 184/185 cm. He could very well be 6'0" even though or about 5'11.5".
dmeyer says on 3/Nov/08
he can look 182 in some movies 184 185 in others but when wearing 1.8 in heels i agree if he was 6 ft 1 then with boots and posture he will look aleast 6 ft 2 and he never does
RisingForce says on 3/Nov/08
Yeah he can appear 6'1" but then again considerinh his slim frame and big heeled boots if he can only sometimes appear 6'1" and never over that then I doubt he's anything over 6 foot max. If he wear 6'0.5" or 6'1" with those advantages he'd often appear 6'2".

I don't rule out 6 foot even but again my best estimate is a strong 5'11". 6 foot wouldn't surprise me at all though.
RisingForce says on 3/Nov/08
Hugh says on 2/Nov/08
Cage is 6ft minimum and likely bit more than this.

He isn't over 6 feet. More like 6 foot max and likely a bit under that.

She's probably in heels. If she's in 3" heels and he's in about 1" dress shoes then he could be a legit 6'0" there. But then again there's also a chance that he's in 1.75" boots and she's heels a little under 3" putting him 5'11" there.

Either way the range seems to be a strong 5'11" or a weak 6'0". He really doesn't have good posture but then again he wears big heeled shoes. My best guess is a strong 5'11".
RisingForce says on 30/Oct/08
Anyone know what height Nicolas claims? I'd guess either 6'0" or 6'1" is what he claims.

6'0" is possible but I still say he's 5'11". I see almost no chance of 6'1" though.
RisingForce says on 28/Oct/08
James I also doubt he's lost height, he's only 44.

What are you talking about Anonymous?

I never said Downey wasn't wearing shoes in his mugshot, in fact I assumed he was wearing them.

I disagree since he's coming a little under 6 foot minus the extra hair as it is.

No, but I assume he was wearing shoes for the shot. They wouldn't have him barefoot against the height chart for no reason. The real question is if the chart is accurate, if it is then 5'11" barefoot.

So you can say that about cage wearing shoes, but you can't say that about robert downey jr.'s mugshot?

In Raising Arizona he's standing against a height chart and seems to just come under 6 ft mark(not including hair) but he's probably in shoes and we don't know if the height chart is accurate. He also isn't standing up straight so if he was he'd probably reach the 6 ft mark.

If the chart is accurate then he'd be 6 foot in shoes standing up straight.

RisingForce says on 18/Oct/08
Thanks dmeyer. I still think he's 5-11 and his boots/frame can make him look 6 foot or 6'0.5".

He's interesting, I've read everything from 5'9" to 6'1" for him. 5'9" is laughable but then again he'd ocassionally look 6'2" and sometimes 6'3" if he was 6'1" with his thin frame and boots. So 6'1" doesn't seem realistic to me either.

I'd say 5'11" and 6'0" are the 2 heights worth discussing for him.
dmeyer says on 18/Oct/08
cage had biker boots with 1.7 in heels in gone in 60 thats whi he looked 184 185 cm range

I disagree, he looked 5'11" max next to 5'10.25" Donal Logue and 5'5" Eva Mendes in that movie.

I have to say he looked 6 ft in Gone In Sixty Seconds but I don't remember his footwear from that movie.
Leung says on 13/Oct/08
Yes you are posting pictures of Nic Cage next to taller men but Cage still looks 6’ in those photos.

Even though your photos don’t back up your 5’11” claims, you obviously have that height set deep in your mind RisingForce, therefore I am not going to debate with you any further about Cage’s height.
RisingForce says on 13/Oct/08
Besides Leung, I usually judge height from premiere pictures because in movies a lot of tricks can be done. That's not to say that you can't get good shots for estimating height from movies when the camera angle is good and the footwear is clear but in general premiere pictures are better for comparing height.
RisingForce says on 13/Oct/08
Honestly I can't see how anyone thinks he's 6'1", 6 foot even seems to be a stretch to me. If he's 6 foot then he's the shortest looking 6 foot guy I've ever seen. He looked a good 3 inches shorter than Samuel L Jackson and about 2 shorter than Carrey, he wasn't slouching either. Keep in mind that Cage is standing very straight while Jackson is leaning and Carrey is slightly leaning.

The Brosnan picture is the shortest I've seen him look since he's looking up and Pierce is looking down but Pierce is still quite a bit taller. The Sean Connery picture also backed that up to me. Sean is about 6'1" now in his late 70's and was still taller than Cage by a couple of inches.
Leung says on 13/Oct/08
RisingForce,
The thing is that he doesn’t look 6’ occasionally; he looks 6’ all the time. Regarding Cage’s choice of footwear, yes I have seen photos of him out socially wearing cowboy boots but if you watch his movies he tends to wear very normal footwear or whatever is relevant to his character.

I’m looking at some of your previous posts where you linked pictures of Cage with tall guys such as Pierce Brosnan, Samuel L Jackson and Jim Carey to support your 5’11” claims but honestly even in those photos he still looks geniune 6 footer. I’m a bit perplexed as to how you can view Cage as 5’11”.
RisingForce says on 11/Oct/08
Leung says on 11/Oct/08
he's always looked a legit 6 footer in my opinion

At times he can but then again when you're fairly thin and wear big heeled boots often you can look a little taller than you actually are.
Leung says on 11/Oct/08

RisingForce says on 10/Oct/08
Even in boots he was about the same height as 5'10.25" Donal Logue in Ghost Rider. 5'11" max, I believe Glenn said he looked 5'11" in person too.
RisingForce says on 10/Oct/08
That's possible but all I'm saying is he certainly has footwear that you could fit pretty big lifts in and if a known lift wearer like Sly, Pitt or Downey wore some of the shoes he does everyone would be sure they were wearing lifts.

While you may be right I'm just saying based on his footwear it's very possible that he's a lift wearer. At the very least he often has a footwear advantage over other people.

Another thing that backs up 5'11" to me is that even with a fairly thin frame and big heeled boots he never looks taller than 6'1". I think a legit 6'0" or 6'1" man would surely give illusions of 6'2" at times with those advantages and 6'1" man would once in a while give 6'2" illusions without those advantages.
RisingForce says on 9/Oct/08
I don't think it's any more likely that Brosnan is wearing lifts than Cage. I've shown pictures of Cage in suspicious footwear thta make him appear taller and even Rob made a note of this.

It's hard for me to buy anything above 5'11" for Cage.

Look at how Cage is looking way up and standing as straight as possible while Brosnan is looking down and is still quite a bit taller. That makes even 5'11" seem too high.

Cage looks slightly shorter than david Caruso who is listed at 5'11.5" here

Looks about half an inch shorter there so 5'11" seems right in that picture.

Those have a slight heel but nothing ridiculous. Probably no lifts but regardless looking 2" shorter than Connery now proves he isn't 6 foot. Glenn also said he looked 5'11" in person.

I stick to 5'11" max.
RisingForce says on 6/Oct/08
I think he's 5'11" max. No way is he 6'1" otherwise 76 year old Sean Connery wouldn't have had 2 inches on him in that picture. Connery today is 6'1". Samuel L Jackson and Jim Carrey also would have been around the same height as him if he were 6'1".

He's 5'11" and he wears big boots, big heeled shoes and lifts. I've posted a picture where he was obviously wearing lifts. His thin frame also gives the illusion of someone taller.
Hugh says on 4/Oct/08
I see about an inch between him and Carrey and 2 inches between him and Jackson.
sdbouncer says on 4/Oct/08
i saw him in vegas last week and well "Nicholas sometimes wears big heeled boots which make him look taller." <== this is an understatement. im mexican and i know that those pointy cowboy boots can give at least 3 inches and well he was wearing them and it made him look tall, i was wearin sandals and he had at least an inch on me but damn them boots are big if he is 6'.
RisingForce says on 3/Oct/08
No way does Jackson have less than 3" on Cage, he is leaning and still looks considerably taller. As far as the Connery picture well Cage is closer to the camera too so while Connery has a posture advantage Cage has the camera advantage.
RisingForce says on 2/Oct/08
Cage and 5'5" Eva Mendes

Cage looks 4-5 inches taller but the last picture shows he could have lifts in those big heeled shoes. Either way her heels maybe give 3" or a bit over while his shoes are giving him probably about 2 inches, assuming he doesn't have huge lifts. That puts him 5'11".

Cage and Sean Connery(in his late 70's)
Click Here

Connery was 6'2.5" in his peak but now lately looks just about 6'1". When you factor in that Cage is closer to the camera Connery easily has him by 2 inches again. We also don't know what type of shoes Cage has there, he could have a footwear advantage. This time he looks a weak 5'11".

Cage getting dwarfed by 6'2" Samuel L Jackson and 6'1.5" Jim Carrey

Jackson is leaning but still has a good 3" on Cage putting him at 5'11" max again. That's not even mentioning that Jackson gets a lot of 6'1" sightings lately too(he was already 53 in that picture). Cage actually has very good posture there while neither Carrey or Jackson too. A weak 5'11" again.

Not to mention he looked 5'11" in the picture Glenn and Glenn saw him at about 5'11" too.

So in conclusion he's 5'11" max and no taller.
RisingForce says on 30/Sep/08
He's probably 5'11". He doesn't seem any taller. His big boots and thin frame can make him look 6'1". A guy with a thin frame and big boots would give ocassional 6'2" illusions atleast if he was a legit 6 footer. If he was 6'1", he'd look 6'3" at times with his build and boots. I think he's more likely under 5'11" than over 6 foot.
Hugh says on 30/Sep/08
Sure James but he can't have lost height at his age.

Looked a good 6ft1 in Face Off. He's at least 6ft. More likely 6ft0.5.
MHouillon says on 15/Sep/08
He is a typical more than 6 feet but not quite an honest 6'1.

So 184cm (6'.05") for Mr. Cage.
Mister Lennon says on 12/Sep/08
He can never be 6'1. He was about two inches shorter than 6'2 sean connery and the same with 6'2 samuel l. jackson or 6'1 and half jim carrey. Cage is 6 as much. And he looked the same than John Travolta in double face.
moose says on 12/Sep/08
in my eyes, he looks 6-1
Gonzalo says on 12/Sep/08
Frank2, if Cage is 6`1 why was he two inches shorter than Sean Connery in The Rock? According to you Sean Connery was 6`1.5 peak. When The Rock was filmed Connery was 66 years old, so he could have shrank by then. It is hard for me to see Cage over 6 feet
thekiddd says on 11/Sep/08
As said above. Nicolas Cage wears big heeled boots which make him look taller.
And Remember, in the beginning of FACE/OFF you see a profile for Cage that says 6ft not 6'1". So yeah, if that was in the movie on his profile, it is very unlikely that he is taller than that.
Frank2 says on 10/Sep/08
That's 'cause Cage is most likely 6'1" and Travolta is most likely 6' even. I've seen both men and Cage was at least two inches taller than me and I'm 5'11". And cage wasn't wearing special shoes. Travolta was in costume for the film BROKEN ARROW and was wearing boots that could very well have had lifts inside. He looked to be about 6'1" at that time.
Anonymous says on 10/Sep/08
looks taller then travolta in face/off by like half an inch
Hugh says on 29/Aug/08
I think 6ft overall is a good estimate for Nick. But There are just too many pictures of him looking over 6ft. 6ft0.5 is even more likely.
Paul_Pierce_4_ever says on 23/Aug/08
He's described as tall in matchstick men... to me... tall is above 6 feet... 6'1 is where tall starts for me...
