GF says on 13/Mar/10
Hey Leung, sorry I didn't see your post on 24/Nov/08.
If my early afternoon height is more accurate than my morning height (5'10 or 178 cm) then yes, mid-day I am exactly 59.5 or 176.5cm. Orlando was a good 3/4 inches to 1 inch taller than me so I'd estimate him at 511 flat morning height and 510 flat evening height since we lose about an inch of height from the time we get up until the time we go to sleep again.
YouTube search: "From Wax to Will: Orlando & Madame Tussauds" and you will see Orlando being measured (don't know what time of day) at 179.5 cm which is exactly what I said he was. That must have been closer to the morning then.
I did not work with Johnny unfortunately but I may this time! From what I know he is 59 evening height which would make him 510 or close to it in the morning. 59.5 therefore, according to your logic, would be his appropriate height as well.
P.S. Rob: yes I sent a picture with Orlando. Where is it?
GF says on 13/Mar/10
Johnny is more like 5'9.5 (177 cm) and Orlando is 5'10.5 (179 cm). So yes, they are about 1 inch apart. lexi says on 11/Mar/10
i doubt tht he is almost 6 ft tall!!! GirlBadger says on 8/Mar/10
I believe it. In pictures next to Johnny Depp, who's about 5'9, Orlando does look to be an eensy bit taller. go google it~ Anonymous says on 15/Feb/10
The measurement seemed accurate, people bang on about not having measurements, shoe lifts etc. etc. and we actually have an accurate video of him being unbiasedly measured and people still complain.
Only question is when was he measured, if it was morning, he may be more like 178 during the day or if its at night maybe hes 180 during the day. Either way 5'10.5 sounds about right to me Anonymous says on 15/Feb/10

That nearly 6foot is a joke. Barefoot he is 179cm at best lougahouga says on 7/Feb/10
guys, that was a laser measurement at morning, so it includes the hair which is at least 1.5 inch at morning, it also includes the 2 inches platform and considering it was a morning measurement:
179.5 - 3.5 - 5 - 2.5 = 168.5
168.5cm (5'6.25") is the height of orlando bloom at night Dural says on 5/Feb/10
It's likely they included the platform he was on. filip says on 3/Feb/10
hadassah says on 2/Feb/10
who sad ,that Depp is 175cm for sure?173ćm definitely possible.
really doubt ,that they didnt count the pedestal ,he was on. hadassah says on 2/Feb/10
I say Orlando is 5'11", he looks about 2 inches taller than Johnny Depp(5'9")in Pirates of the Caribbean filip says on 29/Jan/10
the plaform he was on had 3 -4cm.he is 176 cm. Anonymous says on 24/Jan/10
The wax figure is made on the platform. So they will make the platform and orlando at 179,5. The platform is probably 2/3 cm. So hes about 177 cm. Dural says on 21/Jan/10
If the measurement is accurate, he's either 179.5cm or about 175cm if the platform is included. I somehow doubt both and would put him at 177cm.

Click Here Paul says on 19/Jan/10
They take the measurement with the platform height included (179.5), then subtract the platform height from the total. It's not rocket science. The platform looks to be a good 4 or 5 cm, which puts Bloom around 175. Vegas says on 18/Jan/10
179.5 can't be bs if we have him on video getting measured at that height DMEYER says on 17/Jan/10
i met the guy 179.5 is bs he could be as short as 5 ft 10 Shawn says on 17/Jan/10
Anonymous, I didn't know he had several statues, but the point remains that in that video (the only one of him being measured we know of) he is wearing socks and does measure from what seems like an accurate approach at 179.5cm Leung says on 17/Jan/10
wow he certainly does look short next to Liv Tyler who isn't even standing up straight, but we got to give him the benefit of the doubt because Liv can look really tall in high heels. I also suspect it could be a weird camera angel too because I have noticed that Liv's eye level is only an inch higher than Bloom's eyes yet the top of her head is taller than his top hat, that's weird!
My estimate for Bloom remains at 5'10". Anonymous says on 16/Jan/10
Shawn, he has more than one wax statue made of him. I'm not exclusively talking about that one single video you make all of your references from. In some of his other statues, hes wearing the footwear type to go with his statue. Use that brain of your's. Anonymous says on 16/Jan/10
i don't think Orlando is more than 5'9.5
Click Here Anonymous says on 14/Jan/10
Hmm, if 179.5 is morning height it's plausible that evening height is 177cm and that during the day he is 178cm which averages around 5'10" - 5'10.25" that would explain why he seems a half inch shorter than 5'10.5" Sean Bean:

Also here is a shot with Pitt, Sean Bean and Bloom in together. Bean 5'10.5, Pitt 5'11 and Bloom 5'10.25
Click Here Shawn says on 14/Jan/10
He was not measured with boots on, you can see he has nothing on his feet, and they're not stupid enough to go to all that effort and precision and measure a 2 inch platform. He was 179.5, say that was early in the morning, probably so they could start work right away, and usaully health checks, stats are taken in the morning when you are fresh. I'd guess 180cm out of bed, 179 afternoon, and 178 before bed. That makes for a solid average of 179cm or 5'10.5" not hard to believe for someone who is noticeably taller than Depp and does appear quite tall.
Also, the pic with Brad Pitt and Eric Bana is not a good comparison. Yeah thats a bad pic for bloom, but Bana is 6'2.5" which mean Pitt looks over 6' which says to me someone has their special shoes on... Anonymous says on 12/Jan/10
Orlando Bloom is 5'9.5 barefeet.
Hes measured for his wax statue with his boots/shoes on and sometimes even on a platform.
Most people that meet him are surprised how short he is to them. Leung says on 23/Dec/09

In the video where he gets measured with the thingy, his height includes the platform he is on, so I would say 177 is his actual height or a weak 5'10". Just see 1:26.
Also, I think it is *very important* to make clear that you cannot make conclusions about anybody's height by comparing them to Pitt. I wish I could find the pics of Clooney where he is like 3 inches taller than Pitt in similar footwear.... Anonymous says on 19/Dec/09

Actually the Madam Tussauds seems to be a fairly accurate measurement and barefoot etc. probably would have been early in the morning (think about the procedure) and came out at 17.5cm which is exactly 5'10.66 inches so I think that listing of 5'10.5 is about right DMEYER says on 8/Dec/09

Pitt clearly has 2-3 inches on Bloom! Either Pitt is wearing massive lifts or Bloom is much much shorter. kevin says on 28/Nov/09

I have seen a photograph of Mike Tyson standing in front of a giant ruler that says he was 5'11.5, am I crazy for not believing that?
That video shows Orlando Bloom standing on a circular stand that is at least one inch off the ground. You can watch any video of them doing the wax statue measurements and you will know what I am talking about. I have only seen one wax statue of him, (his character in pirates) and hes wearing boots (Hes not barefoot).
There has been alot of pictures posted on this guy, more lean towards him being at least 5'9.5, possibly 5'10, nothing more. Its no secret knowledge that celebrities wear lifts. And if Orlando Bloom is in the 5'9-5'10, which is average, we still live in a world were average is just average. Dural says on 20/Aug/09
It was a laser measurement, they aren't really accurate. mee says on 19/Aug/09
Why are you guys bothering, there is video, where he is measured at 179,5 cms. So dont try do downgrade him ;) Nathalie says on 18/Aug/09
He's that tall? In "Troy" he looked like 1.72 cm! James S says on 15/Aug/09
More like 5'10 to me. He always looked a bit shorter than Brad Pitt but a bit taller than Johnny Depp which would show that he is a flat 5'10.
As a side note, a friend of mine, who is close to 5'11 saw him in vegas and said he was in flat shoes and ABOUT the same height which would show he is at the VERY LEAST 5'9.75. Mike says on 6/Aug/09

He is at at least 1.5-2 inches shorter than Brad. I think he is 177 cm max, since it is widely believed Brad is 180 cm max.

I don't want to sound arrogant, but I have yet to see a pic with bloom looking above 5-9. is there one? I think he was dwarfed by Trump and Pitt seemed a lot taller too. only reason i believe he could be 5-10 is because of the comments below here Miles says on 30/Apr/09

Shorter than Brad, not that taller from 5"6-7 Keira. Brad is 180cm - nothing more. Bloom: very lean physique, big hair and long and skinny legs. Shorter than Liv Tyler. 177-178 cm is a good number, which is 5ft 10 at most.
PS: LotR movies can not be a reference for anything, since they played with heights and lighting so much, everyone looked different from what they actually are. Damo says on 18/Apr/09
I guess you don't know until you stand next to them. I'm 178.5 which is a good height i think. The actors usually always seem to add more height than what they are. I was shocked to hear Brad Pitt was about the same as me even though its a good height. When he stand next to Angelina you'd think he was 6'1 or something. Doug says on 11/Apr/09
Looks around 4 inches shorter than Donald Trump. Looks a similar height to Brad Pitt to me, I'd say 179cm is about right. elly says on 10/Apr/09
Miranda Kerr is supposed to be 1.75 cm, Orlando about 1.80..but it really doesn't appear that he is just 5 cm taller than Miranda! ( I mean, she's a supermodel, could she be smaller than 1.75??) Pheraps Orlando is more than 1.80..? RisingForce says on 17/Mar/09
I have Depp at 5'9.5" and Bloom at more like 5'10.75". Bo says on 9/Mar/09
He is no more than 1.76 cm believe me. a few months ago i stood almost next to him, didnt get a picture, but i'm 1.74cm and he was not much longer than me! Complex says on 8/Mar/09
I never see more than an inch difference between him and depp, so who knows, depp is argued anywhere from 5'7-5'9, personally I say 5'9 tops for Depp and Bloom is likely 5'9.75, virtually 5'10 but 5'11 seems a stretch.. dani says on 2/Mar/09
he looks 179cm as Rob has him here. Comets says on 24/Feb/09
yeah he is definitely over 5'11 (180cm) italian boy says on 23/Feb/09
he looks 180 cm moro or less it's very difficult to say he is 179.5 cm or 180.0 or 179 and in every photo we don't know so much about shoes so he can wear 1.5 cm converse or 5 cm cowboy boots Complex says on 30/Jan/09

On that photo complex gave further down the page, either orlando bloom is a lot shorter than I thought or donald trump is taller than 6'2 because there looks about 6 inches between them. Unless its just a dodgy photo making bloom look a bit shorter, Complex says on 26/Jan/09
Really when you think about it, waxfigures don't have to be exact, i'm sure shorter actors try to get their waxfigure measurements higher as not to appear short. I'm sure Pitt's wax figure would be measured at 6'4 or something,lol! Heck they prolly even gave cruise a 5'9-5'10 wax figure instead of the 5'6-5'7 that he is. Personally I think Bloom is anywhere between 5'9.75 to the 5'10.5 we have him at here, i think 179 is max for him tho! Aratirion says on 25/Jan/09
As far as I can remember he had no puffy hair at all in that video. And what sense would it make to include the platform? They have to measure him closely so that they can make an accurate waxfigure. I guess it wouldn't be helpfull if they included "senseless cm's". 179.5 for Bloom is exactly what he is looking on most pictures and what he looks all the time next to other people. Fits perfectly with a 1.76,77 Johnny Depp by the way. Complex says on 24/Jan/09
Vegas i'm not saying everything must go through me, my opinion shouldn't make any difference. But when someone is trying to convince me of something, they should show me proof. That's why I said "when I see it I believe it" in response to "Complex, he was measured on video at 179". So if a post is directed towards me then yes something should be verified if they want ME to believe it, but if we're discussing height in general and most have seen this video, then it's not an issue but if ya'll want me to believe it, show me proof. Actually the more everyone keeps sayin it the less I believe it happened, makes me wonder if ya'll aren't just teaming up to support ya'lls claims. So if ya'll want me to believe it, show me proof, if not, then don't use the whole "bloom was measured" thing to run down my claims. GUK says on 22/Jan/09
>The question is were they including the approx 1 inch platform he was stood on.
I don't know, they just took the measurement to the top of his head and said "179.5" if that was measured from the floor they would need to deduct the height of the platform to give his real height, but I would expect they measured from the platform. They were taking lots of measurements, if they were really inaccurate the waxwork wouldn't look right. The platform revolves so they can take quick measurements. I've tried to look for the video but it's no longer on youtube. It looked like a DVD extra from a pirates film miser says on 22/Jan/09
...or do you think they gave out his height with the platform included? Do these statues stand on the very same platform? miser says on 22/Jan/09
>The question is were they including the approx 1 inch platform he was stood on.
Why do you think he wasn't supposed to be on the platform? Isn't Salman Khan also standing on a platform in the video posted below? GUK says on 21/Jan/09
Lots of people on this site saw it. The question is were they including the approx 1 inch platform he was stood on. Whichever way he's minimum an inch less than 179.5 which means 177 absolute minimum. So almost 5ft 10 to almost 5ft 11 is his height 179 seems the fairest compromise Vegas says on 21/Jan/09
complex you are acting like everything must go through you to be verified lol
we can't post the link because the video has since been removed, mee posted it the video on 3/Aug/08 on this page, as you can see the video has been removed from youtube, it was posted on numerous pages on this website between august and september, loads of people saw it Complex says on 21/Jan/09
Leung, if I see it, i'll believe it. I believe it when I see proof like that. But when ppl post things like someone looking 2 inches taller yet in huge shoes possible lifts, I don't call that proof. Heck we've all seen Pitt/Paltrow barefoot Pitt looking same height and at best 1' taller yet everyone overlooks that, so ppl are gonna believe what they wanna believe. Even you leung often ignore proof, but if someone shows me a video of him being measured at that height, I swear i'd believe it, but i've never seen it, if I owned lotr I would check it out but I neve got into the rings movies as much. Why can't someone just post the damn link to the video and that would end the discussion, lol! Pardon the language but geeze, look at it from my point of view. That's the same as me tellin ya'll "I saw a video of Sly measured at 5'8, so it's true, I saw it" No one would believe it til they saw it. miser says on 20/Jan/09

Complex,
The link to the video was on here a while back and many of us saw it, if you missed out then tough. I recall that it was footage taken from LOTR bonus DVD stuff so if you are so keen to see it then look for it yourself.
The guy measured Bloom (barefoot) and clearly states 179.5cm but I think that the measurement included Blooms puffy hair because I believe that Bloom is no more than 178cm. Complex says on 18/Jan/09
Rising I know, i've heard that is what i'm saying but never seen it. Just like i've heard Bloom was measured but i've never seen any link to that either. W/o a video sayin Bloom got measured at 5'11 is pointless, cuz with that mentality we could say he was measured at 6'2 but we don't know where the vid is, lol! Doesn't make sense til we see it.

"And you've measured him yourself and know he's 5ft10, miser?"
No. I havn't claimed his height had "been proven - not theorized based on assumption" like you did, lol.
"I base knowledge that Depp is 175cm / 5ft9 from the Astronauts Wife where he's barefoot with a lady of 177cm / 5ft9.75 and he be 2cm shorter."
It didn't really show that he is "2cm shorter", it could be 1cm or zero cm shorter... they appeared the same as far as one can accuratelly tell. If she is about 5-10 so is he.
"Now, female models are more accurate listings than their male co-stars, "
Lol, this is a totally misguided conception that is responsible for screwing up many listings in this website, which tends to under-list leading male actors and over-list "tallish" actresses and models. Pretty much every "tallish" women are over-rated in this website, look up the Charlie Sheen - Brooke Shields example I posted below. Truth is women lie about their height just as much as they lie about weight...
"these women rarely 'fudge' height if they're over that 5ft7 minimum requirement to become a model."
Honestly I think this is another totally misguided conception of yours. I don't know a whole lot about models but I heard 5-10 is minimum for "runway" models. Maybe our friend "C." could comment on this, she is a tall girl. DMEYER says on 17/Dec/08
i walked by him i had a lidl floor advantage and he seemed 5 ft 9.5 i had 1 IN shoes so 6 ft then i wore high cut dress boots he looked nearly my height i would say 5 ft 10.25 to 5 ft 10.5 if he had lifts then he is 5 ft10 or under if they were normal 1.3 in dress boots then he is solid 5 ft 10 Vibram says on 17/Dec/08
And you've measured him yourself and know he's 5ft10, miser?

Thanks to Risingforce's pics (see Depps page and 8/Dec/08). That lady is Charlize Theron, a former model. Now, female models are more accurate listings than their male co-stars, these women rarely 'fudge' height if they're over that 5ft7 minimum requirement to become a model. Complex says on 17/Dec/08
Depp gets listed as low as 5'7 and as high as 5'9. Assuming Depp is 5'9 then Bloom would be max 5'10. I think Bloom is 5'9.5 or 5'9.75 but not a full 5'10 in the evening!! jim12 says on 16/Dec/08

It is the case _almost_ everywhere here, Moke. Most leading male actors are under-listed, but pretty much all of the "tallish" female actresses like Brooke Shields are over-listed. Charlie Sheen for example is listed as 5-9 here yet he is about the same height as Brooke, who's listed as 5'11:

Lol, it's pretty hilarious how some folks are downgrading everybody by association... first you assume depp is 5-9... then since bloom does not look a whole lot taller he's about 5-10. i think you're taking an inch off both. they are about 5-10 and 5-11 respectively. Vibram says on 13/Dec/08
Check this out: Click Here Next to 5ft9 Depp he looks no taller. Most experts on here calculate Depp to be between 174cm-176cm (5ft8.75 - 5ft9.5), so lets say 175cm / 5ft9 flat for Depp. From that picture alone Bloom is tops 177cm / 5ft9.75 and looks more 176cm.
Click Here = Depp and Bloom again yet Bloom dominates, indicating lifts or cowboy boots and/or Depp in flats, or floor abnormalities.
Click Here Bloom and Depp again with 5ft7.5 Jerry Bruckheimer on the left. There is about 2" max Between Jerry and Bloom indicating Bloom is struggling to be 5ft10 and more of a strong 5ft9 guy. 5ft10.75 / 179cm is way too generous = downgrade him from this evidence! What else do you need? Complex says on 6/Dec/08

No way he's 6'0 or 5'11, 5'10.5 maybe, 5'9.75-5'10 more likely, in lifts who knows... anonymous says on 4/Dec/08
I know he's tall. He is a couple of inches taller than mirranda kerr who is reportedly 5 foot 9 with heels on. That would make him at least 6 foot. I would say 5 foot 11. Leung says on 24/Nov/08
GF,
Your early afternoon height is more accurate than your morning height, based on what you have told us I would guess you are about 59.5.
So Orlando Bloom was only a little taller than you, interesting. Did you also get the chance to meet Johnny Depp on set of Pirates?
[Editor Rob: gf sent his picture, I will put it up here...] GF says on 20/Nov/08
I am exactly 5'10" morning height (almost 5'9" at night) and Orlando Bloom was AT LEAST 1/2 inch taller than me when I filmed with him on Pirates 3. 5'10.5" is about right. Maybe 5'10.75"
179.5cm is probably dead-on. GUK says on 20/Nov/08
"Which according to my dad people in England don't usually grow to be that tall."
LOL He is average for a guy of his age. Many younger people are over 6ft in the UK. I'm Blooms height and feel short a lot of the time miser says on 19/Nov/08
"He is 176 to 177cm which is 5ft9.5 > 5ft9.75. No more, no less. It's easy to round off that to 5ft10 (178), then his insert/lift (1.5cm) and sometimes big hair give the impression of around 179cm.
I have sussed Depp at 174cm (175max) and Bloom looks only 2cm taller... thats 1 inch."
They really are about 2cm apart, but it is probably Depp that is 177cm, Orlando is 179cm or 180cm. Kelsey says on 14/Nov/08
I read everywhere that he's 5' 11" tall, and besides he's my absolout favorite actor so I know for a fact that he's 5' 11" tall. Which according to my dad people in England don't usually grow to be that tall. Vibram says on 4/Nov/08

Complex, someone did linked a video where a guy measures Bloom and clearly states 179.5cm, unfortunately none of us are completely sure what measuring instrument or device was used. But I believe its probably an accurate measurement but thats including Bloom puffy hair. My opinion on Blooms height is that including his puffy hair then 179.5cm is plausible but if you flattened his hair 178cm is more accurate. Complex says on 28/Oct/08
Well mee if that's true, then show us the video and i'll believe...
You can't say I downgrade every celeb by an inch, that's not true, some I downgrade more, lol, haha! Nah, I dont downgrade everybody, mee seems to me you upgrade everyone.
We have to keep in mind that celebs are naturally gonna be downgraded, not just because they wre lifts but because ppl claim their max height, so if they're ever caught looking shorter then they'll be more likely to get downgraded.
They have a pic down a little wys of a guy (5'9.5) perfectly even with Bloom. Besides have we forgotten he played a hobbit, lol! 5'10 MAX but he never looks that! mee says on 22/Oct/08
Complex is trying to downgrade every celebrity for one inch. There is clear video where he has been measured for Waxword and man who is measuring him said :"179,5cm". Anna says on 15/Oct/08
I heard on tv that hes 5'11 though to me 5'10 sounds more accurate. Complex says on 14/Oct/08
5'9.5 seems right, i'd agree with that, maybe 5'9.25, he never looks tall and never really looks short, so this seems about right... mee says on 20/Sep/08
Anonymous, look that video,and youu will se that he is 179,5 Antron says on 19/Sep/08
Not taller than 5'10. Slightly taller than Depp who is 5'9." Anonymous says on 6/Sep/08

You can tell mirander kerr isn't 5'9 because her body is so small, thats why she never made it as a big model in europe she's probably 5'7 - 5'8 and told to lie by her agency. mee says on 3/Aug/08

He is measured here barefeet, and he is 179,5 cm... Rikashiku says on 31/Jul/08
Dang Chow yun is tall.
its hard to tell between him and Depp because of his hair.
but with bloom it almost looks 2 inches.
idk. when i look at bloom with other actors he always gives a 5'9 look.
on kingdom of heaven he did give a 5'10 look next to 6'3 actors(whos names i have forgotten sorry. one was from starwars the other was baldish) VSFan says on 30/Jul/08
Miranda is a good 5'7 1/2-5'8. She's not as tall as they make her out to be saying she's 5'9. I love the VS angels but they usually always lie about their height making them taller or shorter if they're too tall.
Alessandra Ambrosio: 5'8 (according to VS: 5'10)
Miranda Kerr: 5'7 1/2 (according to VS: 5'9)
Tyra Banks: 5'10 (According to her: 5'9)

Chow is actually a little taller than Rush:
Click Here GSP says on 9/Jul/08
I guess bloom a strong 5'10 (as in never drops lower than that) and Depp 5'8.5 at his lowest. Maybe 5'9. Aratirion says on 8/Jul/08
So, what's your estimate? Chow and Rush both 5'11, Bloom 5'10 and Depp 5'9? Hmm ... yeah, could be, but I still think you should add half an inch to all of them. Leung says on 8/Jul/08
Anonymous says on 7/Jul/08
leung,i think Megan Gale is more 178 cms unlike 5'10.75 billed height?ur say?
I think 510.75 sounds right for Megan Gale, she is a tall woman. But the main point I was trying to get across was that Miranda Kerr doesnt look a legit 59, I would say more like 58. GSP says on 6/Jul/08
He didnt really look short in Troy even against his brother. I think hes a legit 5'10. Authority says on 5/Jul/08
Aratirion, that pic is not very good given the fact that Orlando is closer to the Camera and has an obvious shoe heel advantage to the flats Depp is wearing. His stance is a little awkward which could suggest a lift as well. I think Orlando and Depp are the same height as they look the same in the films. Also, the Camera angle is down low as all three guys are looking down in this photo. I would say they're both taller than Jerry Bruckheimer though who looks 5' 7" here.
See this photo here for comparison of Depp, Orlando, Chow.

Also note Geoffrey Rush looks almost the same as Chow but is quoted as an inch shorter here. There are also other pics on here and elsewhere that show Chow and Geoffrey together, hard to tell if there's any height difference... matt says on 2/Jun/08
miranda kerr isn't quite 5'7. She appeared once on Kerri Anne, which is a morning show in australia and she quoted that she wasn't quite 5'7 after being asked whether it was intimidating modelling next to such tall women. Besides Bloom always wears thick heels next to her. And although it cant be completely proven its hard not to argue that heels specifically are worn for a reason. Authority says on 23/May/08
I agree with rinky below, he's about 5'9", not "close to 6ft." He's clearly 2" shorter than Chow Yun Fat who is 5'11" as Chow is the same height as Sean William Scott in Bulletproof Monk. (See pic below) sam says on 10/May/08
strange, i always thought he was small, but looking more closely here, he's actually a little tall! Aratirion says on 30/Apr/08
Hmm, true, but are you sure there is no pavement-difference on the girls pics? I can't really tell, but it wouldn't be the first time that a model is officially taller than in reality. (Kate Moss' official height is sometimes 5'8)
But if she's 1.73/74, Bloom is probably about 1.78/79 what I always thought. More 1.79 if you ask me. Anyway, another proof, thanks. Leung says on 28/Apr/08
I'm not sure because there are only photos of Miranda posing with Megan. I originally thought that Miranda Kerr was a legit 5'9" (175cm) but now I'm convinced that she's less than that.

It's more tricky making a comparison between Miranda and Orlando because of the high heel factor but I think Miranda Kerr is 173cm and Orlando Bloom 178cm.
Click Here Aratirion says on 28/Apr/08
And what was the difference between Bloom and the girls like? Gale must be within his height-range (+- 1,2 cm). With a bit taller heel she must have been taller than Bloom if he ain't 5`11. Leung says on 27/Apr/08
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr attended Randwick Horse Races on the weekend for their first public outing as a couple. Miranda Kerr is officially 59 but I shocked to see that Megan Gale (Australian model) who is listed as 510.75 had 3 inches over Miranda Kerr, their heels were similar height.
Also compared to other Victoria Secret models she is one of the shortest.
Miranda Kerr looks like she might only be 58. brother_h says on 25/Mar/08

He's 5'10 flat, he is marginally taller than Miranda Kerr in a photo on Flickr. He has pretty thick heels. There's another one where he has his arm over her shoulders, she is standing straight and he is kind of slouching so he looks shorter but she has big boots and he has thick heels again so hard to tell - I still think he is 5'10. the shredder says on 27/Feb/08
Rob , if he was measured at 179.5cm , that would make him 5'10.75 right ??? anonymous says on 26/Feb/08
Leung that will be the key to knowing Bloom's height range. I found a photo that was taken from a distance. As you can see Bloom is about to step down to the next step but it doesn't appear that it slouches his height. Kerr is walking (knees are bent) and looking down. They pretty much look the same height or atleast in the same height range. They are both wearing boots but the problem is I can't see Kerr's heels. In the second photo he looks shorter. More photos and research is needed. I still somewhat doubt that he is taller than 5'9-5'10". If you google web "Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr photos" you can find an image of them. If you google image "Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr" you can find another image. Leung says on 25/Feb/08
Bloom is dating 59 Miranda Kerr, I am interested to see what the height difference between the two is. Anonymous says on 23/Feb/08
I agree with everything you said Aratirion but I believe Depp is in the 5'8 - 5'9" range and not the 5'9"-5'10" range. In other words I would say Depp is not smaller than Humphrey Bogart and not taller than Marlon Brando. I believe Orlando Bloom is in the 5'9"-5'10" range and not the 5'10"-5'11" range. A camera can create the illusion that you look heavy or thin and tall and short. GSP says on 22/Feb/08
Yeah Bloom strikes me as a guy who is over 5'10 out of bed and under 5'10 at night ..so yeah 5'10 suits him well even though he might dip under it at night. Aratirion says on 22/Feb/08
@Anonymus; Yeah, 5'10.5 might be a little too much for an evening height but in the morning Bloom is no shorter than that; Compare, as LittleLee said, him and Liam Neeson; There ain't that much difference ... (4 to 5 inches) LittleLee says on 21/Feb/08
I saw a pic of bloom and Liam neeson together. There was a four inch gap and Neeson is 6'4" inch. Defo no smaller than that so obviously bloom is 6 foot tall Anonymous says on 20/Feb/08
Aratirion, that photo proves nothing. How do we know Jerry is 5'8". How do we know Bloom and Jerry aren't wearing lifts. There is no way Bloom is 5'10.5" in the evening. Why does someone 5'6" say Blooom is small. It makes no sense. "Hollywood" is what this person told me in simple terms. Hollywood. Ashley says on 8/Feb/08
Met him in Chicago walking his dog- he is at least 5'10... and larger than life. When my dog saw him- she rolled onto her back so he would pet her. I think he has that affect on most women- great guy! Jojo says on 4/Feb/08
I can't imagine him being much taller then 5'9" or 5'10". I was lucky enough to meet him and sir Ian after a performance of King Lear and Bloom was rather short in comparison Anonymous says on 4/Feb/08
I bet that Bloom is 181 cm and Depp is 175 cm. I have met them both in the same day. While Brad Pitt for sure is 180 cm Aratirion says on 28/Jan/08
Bloom is definitely over 5'10 and far away from 5'9: Click Here
If Jerry Bruckheimer is 5'8 tops then this pretty much proves Johnny Depp being 5'9 and Bloom at least 5'10.5 (evening heights of course) Bloom and Bruckheimer are not even standing straight. Aratirion says on 18/Jan/08
He can seem very tall too; not only in the 5'9 region ...
Shoe advantage, basement advantage, ..., indeed but nevertheless he's looking about 6ft there: Click Here Aratirion says on 18/Jan/08
Orlando slouches all the time, whereas you can hardly see Pitt doing that. Excluding the massive lifts isn't the only thing. You have to be careful with the angle in those pictures. Pitt is the same height as Orlando Bloom, maybe 1cm difference. Cincy says on 17/Jan/08
Does that mean that Brad Pitt only has a 1,252 cm advantage on Bloom, because on the pics we saw from Troy's release, Pitt looks much more taller, even if you exclude the lifts. Aratirion says on 14/Jan/08
Yeah, never thought about that, but maybe 1,79.5 was what the figure had to be about (hair included); So maybe just under 1.79 in the morning (I guess it was morning height), which would explain why he can look 5'10 in the evening. GSP says on 13/Jan/08
Editor Rob,
It looked like some kind of laser measurement tool. Thats the impression I got. So it would have included the hair but he had it slicked back so it was maybe 1/2 inch. I wondered if it included that white circle elevation though. Also it didnt seem like he was straining posture or anything.
He didnt look short barefoot either so I could definatly buy 179 for Bloom. Would have been better if they used a stadiometer though. dmeyer says on 13/Jan/08
rob did you upgreat him because of mesurment ,because i got mesured 183 cm barefeet because i had a lidl hair he has mush more hair
[Editor Rob: I still not sure how he actually got measured, the clip just shows a guy holding a face reference. But I did give him 179cm.] GSP says on 12/Jan/08
Just saw the wax work clip. So assuming that those laser things are accurate and also assuming it didnt somehow include the 1-1.5 inch white circle he was standing on than it seems fairly conclusive he is indeed 179.5.
We should get more of these clips lol. horacle says on 12/Jan/08
@Leungs pics; in many pics he looks 5'9 maybe he is liftless and the others have lift on but i think 5'10 is a good estimation but no more. Don't forget he sometimes wear lift recently. dmeyer says on 10/Jan/08
she had heels on so 6'2 to 6'2.5 for her Katie says on 10/Jan/08
Here he is with 6' Saffron Burrows, who is probably wearing about 3" heels.
Click Here
I say he could be 5'11. I like to dream. ;D Aratirion says on 4/Jan/08
@Leungs pics; most of them fit pretty well to a 1.79 Bloom in my opinion. The difference to Norton is normal, Hartnett has about 10,11,12 cm on Bloom, and the ones with Dom. Monaghan aren't good because Monaghan is standing on a higher level; but what makes me really wondering are the ones with Kevin Spacey and Ian McKellen. Spacey is obviously taller although he should be about 2cm smaller, and McKellen is quite a lot taller ...
the problem is, we don't know footwear and these are just some examples for a 5'9.5/5'10 Bloom. I guess he is 5'10.5 in the morning and 5'10 in the evening. bam says on 4/Jan/08
dmeyers got bloom right on the money
"i think bloom is 5'10.75 morning and 5'10 to 5'10.25 night ,he seemed shorter than me in person and he had funny boots"
That would explain his 5'10.66 listing, and his lows of 5'10 flat in pics. His posture is relaxed, no doubt about it. Leung says on 3/Jan/08

I'm not saying that Bloom is short because he isn't, I just don't see him being close to 5'11". When he is next to legit 5'11" people there is nearly always about an inch difference, sometimes more.
A 179cm person with a slender frame should often give the illusion of being close to 6' but Bloom never does. He's 5'10" flat, and maybe 5'11" when you include an inch of puffy hairstyle. Aratirion says on 3/Jan/08

The following photos are some shockers, in my opinion a legit 179cm will not look this short. I think Bloom is 510. If he is looking taller these days it might be because of his hairstyle or perhaps a slight boost in footwear.

If Brad Pitt is 5'11" there is no way Bloom is even close to 5'10.5". That video of the wax place isn't necessarily proof that Bloom is close to 5'11". I know someone who worked on the Elizabeth soundtrack and they said Bloom didn't look very tall. I believe Bloom is a maximum of 5'9.5", and Depp is a max of 5'8.25". If he looks 6ft it is because he is wearing lifts.
an anonymous commenter.... I was within 5 feet of Orlando Bloom when he was promoting the movie "Elizabethtown" in my home town of Louisville, Kentucky. He ain't no 179. I'm 5' 9" barefoot and he was noticably shorter than me. I'll give him 5' 8". My sister swears he looked more 5' 7"ish. This is how a 5' 10" Pitt can tower over Bloom by a few inches in some pics...especially with lifts. Bloom is just another classic example of the "2 inch rule" for shortish actors. He's about 5' 8", so claims 5' 10" and is lean enough to look it in pictures. Just as a lean 5' 10" Pitt looks 6 feet in pics and 6' 1' with the full lift package. Leung says on 1/Jan/08
People, have a look at the following Bloom fansite which has lots of photos,
Click Here
After browsing the photos I get the impression he is 510, and he tends to look that height in most photos. Occasionally in some photos he looks close to 511 and in some photos 59 but we can regard these as tall and short photos where the angles or posture are in his advantage or disadvantage. Etep says on 1/Jan/08
hes shorter than 5-11 viggo mortensen in lord of the ****ing rings. 5-10 max for orlando. Valeri says on 31/Dec/07
aratirion. You obviously dont know what angles s do you. The picture with bloom is very much in beans favour and under the riht angle they are the same height pretty much.As for the bloom/rush pic,The difference there is less than 1 inch,which would make bloom a legit 5'10.5 at least next to rush.With a difference like that I'd think youd see it,but then sgain you cant judge angles too.sorry. dmeyer says on 31/Dec/07
i think bloom is 5'10.75 morning and 5'10 to 5'10.25 night ,he seemed shorter than me in person and he had funny boots Aratirion says on 31/Dec/07
But if Bloom trully is 1.79 then Geoffrey Rush gotta be over 6 feet easily. Look at that picture again: Click Here If Geoffrey Rush is the 5'11.5 he claims himself (!) then Orlando Bloom would be 5'10 the most.
I still can't really believe Bloom being 5'11. There are numerous pictures where he looks 5'10 the most. (f.e.: Click Here with 5'11(?) Sean Bean; Orlando isn't even slouching here). Aratirion says on 30/Dec/07
@Cincy; The clip is strange, yeah ... But Bloom can easily be 3 to 4 cm taller than Depp, which would make him 1.75/76 and this is most suitable for him. Gago says on 28/Dec/07
This is little high, he never looks much taller than Depp, unless Johnny gets ground support, Orlando is 178 cm or 5'10. Anonymous says on 28/Dec/07
bloom quoted on lotr fellowship of the ring extended dvd commentary that he was 3
inches shorter than john rhys davis. It is quoted right at the end of disc 1. that would put bloom around 5'9.5
[Editor Rob: davis has in early 60's lost at least 2 inches in height.] Danius says on 28/Dec/07
Confused. That measurement could have been in the early morning..so it could've been his morning height which means he could not be a full 5'10.75 anon1 says on 23/Dec/07
He's also standing on a small plateau for the measuring, plus the hair. So it is still doubtful, why measure like that instead of standing with your back against the wall...hmm Cincy says on 20/Dec/07
If you upgrade Bloom, then you must consider to add 0,25 inch to Johnny Depp,if not, it would mean Bloom has 1,5 inch on Depp which seems a bit exagerated to me. bam says on 20/Dec/07
wow, the tassaud clip is awesome. If only they did that for pitt. Original says on 17/Dec/07
For me he look 5'10.5". dmeyer says on 17/Dec/07
you can even give him 5'10.75 since it is 179.705 and 5'10.5 is 179.1 Aratirion says on 17/Dec/07
Ok, i think that's quite suitable for Bloom. For the moment you should leave him at 1.79 ... Cincy says on 16/Dec/07
In that case, why do the editor keeps him at 5'10.25?
[Editor Rob: I'm going to put him to 10.5] Leung says on 16/Dec/07
I still believe that Bloom is 510. That measurement of 179.5 probably includes the highest point of his hair, and Bloom very often appears to have at least an inch worth of hair. Aratirion says on 16/Dec/07
Yeah I trust you brother_h that he seemed like that, because he always seems so, and I think we all got fooled, but Molli just gave us the evidence that he is 5'11. I think every further discussion is not necessary. 1,79.5 cm is his exact height brother_h says on 15/Dec/07
Ive seen this guy up close, no way is he near 5'11. he's atleast 5'9. i was only young but i remember that i was 5'8 and trust me he looked dwarfed next to all the LOTR actors and extras. the aragorn guy viggo something or other, he's like 5'9.
new zealanders are taller than US by an inch. when your 5'10 in US and 5'10 in NZ the NZ guy will be taller by an inch. Molli says on 15/Dec/07

I agree with Ayman. Aratirion says on 15/Nov/07
Yeah, an inch taller than Depp. If Depp is smaller than 5'10 (what is very likely; more 5'9 to 1.76 for JD) than Bloom is about 1.78,79. Always the same estimates, no matter who we compare OB with.
I think Depp and Bloom are listed here very accurately. AshnarLynx says on 14/Nov/07
He looks a solid 5'11 to me in Pirates. Just an inch taller than Depp. Valeri says on 5/Nov/07
aratirion.Thats kind of a bit stupid question. Ofcourse dmeyer means an inch under him with the shoes on. Who in the world says an inch under,when hes barefoot and yore i nshoes. switch on the brain. ;) no offense though. Bloom seems to be mor confident than before. I think hes not trying ot look 6feet anymore as last year with dicaprio,but rather jsut going with the 5'10 flow.,which is cool. 5'10-6ft nice height ? says on 2/Nov/07
Its really hard to see him barefoot. Except on the beach. no photoshoots or nothing! Aratirion says on 27/Oct/07
Oh, thanks Brah!
@dmeyer: So, he looked an inch smaller than you with his shoes or is your estimate that he gotta be an inch smaller without them? What shoes did you wear? |
