He's definitely a little taller than you would think. Passed him in LA a few years ago (looks a little older and closer to his age up close than on TV) and he was around 5'9". I figured he was 5'6" or so at best like he looked like in "Karate Kid" so I was surprised. He's not big but he doesn't stand out as short at all either. Given how young he looked for so long I would guess he physically developed very slowly and was still growing a little bit through his mid-twenties. I knew a guy I went to high school with who was a very slow and late bloomer as well and he was 3 or 4 inches taller at our high school reunion than he was in high school (and also looked very young for his age). This guy, like Macchio, was also a smaller guy who ultimately grew to normal sized stature. Especially if there are hormonal imbalances it can take some men a surprisingly long time to reach their full height and I suspect Ralph had the same issue.

Saw him on George Lopez. They stood next to each other for quite a while and George Lopez is marginally taller than Ralph Macchio. Around 5'9" for Ralph at 50 years old.

Ralph, as an adult, is closer to 5' 10" and is taller than Tom Bergeron. ka says on 5/Apr/11
just watch Dancing With the Star, Ralph looks to be the same height w/ listed 5'9 Tom Bergeron, who is the host of the show. Ralph easily looks 175-176 range, IMO Jay says on 29/Mar/11
Ralph grew since then, unlike Tom.I say he's 5'9.5. Faramir says on 28/Mar/11
I guess 5'8" - 5'8.5" is just accurate for Ralph Macchio.
In 1983 he didn't look much taller than Tom Cruise. They both were 21-22 years old by then, so their heights were probably those of now.
Tom Cruise is listed as 5'7.75"

Ralph looks to be a solid 5'9". He doesn't look short Legend says on 29/Dec/10
He's a phenomenon in terms of height growth it would seem. I go by what I see, and that means he's 5'9.5 as it stands today. duncan says on 14/Dec/10
Yeah I saw that Psych as well and he was easily taller than Dule Hill (5'10), and James Roday (5'9)....odd. Anonymous says on 9/Dec/10
he was just in the new academy episode of pysch and he looked taller than both roday and hill who are listed at 5'10 so......im confused Danimal says on 17/Nov/10
Listed at 5'10" after Karate Kid III came out (1987-1988)... I give him at least 5'9".. Looked to have gotten significantly larger between 1983 and 1987.... Bon says on 13/Nov/10
He probably stopped his inch-relevant growth somewhere around 30. Very interesting.
I'd guess him at 178 today |
