@johno: are you kidding? Crowe looked a good 3 inches shorter than Jackman at the Baftas.

johno says on 12/Feb/12
- Only seemed 1.5inches shorter then hugh jackman on the stage, in the BAFTAs 2012 award ceremony.

Tommy says on 10/Feb/12
He said of himself: "I'm 5-11 1/2 and a bit. In Australia, we call that a Collingwood Six-Footer," so he claims even taller than 5'11.5.

Silent d says on 27/Jan/12
O'Neil rob said 5 foot 11 and half above. I think he is 179cm. I doubt he is past 180cm.

O\'Neil says on 25/Jan/12
crow fan there is absolutely no way what you said is true. He has never even claimed more than 5 11 himself, and it's pretty clear the tallest he could possibly be is 5 10, and thats pushing it

SIlent d says on 24/Jan/12
Crowefan 4 are you sure your husband and daughter are 6 foot? I believe you but i just want to be sure. Until then 179cm.

crowefan4 says on 18/Jan/12
we know crowe and his family personally..have seen him bare-footed. He is tall and more handsome in person-very seldom looks like himself in a movie.....He is every bit 5'11 1/2" ...my husband is 6' and our daughter is 6'....and they are pretty much eye to eye!

Did you think Russell Crowe Robin fat under the hood? Or Was slightly overweight?
I think his height flat 5'10..good day 5'10.25

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 22/Dec/11
I think 5"11.5(182cm) is a shoed height
his stocky build makes him look taller
Could be closer to 5"10 flat like
178cm-179cm?

SaimoN_ says on 14/Dec/11
I think Russel Crowe might actually be his claimed height of 5'11 1/2 because next to 6'2.5 Craig Bierko in Cinderella man I do not see that much of a height difference between them. Especielly in the boxing sequences, I can hardly imagine them filming Crowe in high sneakers or something xD

If he's not 5'11 1/2 I would put him at a strong 5'11 not 5'10.5

Dmeyer says on 12/Dec/11
Proper 178cm not more 5'10-10.25

jake, 1.82 m- 1.83 m says on 11/Dec/11
5ft 10.25- 5ft 11 range during the day.

D says on 23/Nov/11
5'10" barefoot is absolutely spot on. Back in 1987 when Russell appeared on Neighhbours he was exactly the same height as 5'10" Craig Mclachlan and Guy Pearce. Funny how Hollywood actors have growth spurts in the 30's and 40's innit?

Silent d says on 19/Nov/11
I don't believe 181.75cm. He looks 179cm at most. I think he wears big shoes.

meme says on 6/Nov/11
178 barefoot
182 shioes

DejaVu says on 23/Sep/11
Does not look over 178cm next to Bale who is 6'0. Could be a little under 178cm.

bam says on 19/Sep/11
i may have mentioned this but my 6'1ish uncle described him as "short".

Susan says on 6/Aug/11
I think Russell Ira Crowe is handsome no matter what his height and weight! I believe he is probably very close to 5 ft. 11 in. because he has starred with some tall actresses and he always looked taller than them!

anon says on 5/Aug/11
looks 3 inches shorter than christian bale in the yuma promos

hulk says on 23/Jul/11
5'11 is a JOKE
HE LOOOKS 5'10(MAYBE EVEN SMALLER) NEXT TO leonardo dicaprio(5'11)

hulk says on 23/Jul/11
5'11.5 in SHOES
Id say 5'10 Barefooooooooot

Brett says on 12/Jul/11
Hi rob,

Just saw Russell Crowe in East Sydney...Walked right past him ( as you know im 185-186cm) ... he was in Nike Air runners which are pretty well cushioned...probably gave him over 1.25 inches...to my 0.75 inch work shoe sole...but he was any easily looking 5'11" plus... Ive seen him a few times before, and hes always seemed around that mark...so this listing is probably pretty fair. The claims of 5'8" are just stupid, hes genuinely a solidly built guy.

James says on 27/Jun/11
Does look 5'11 a lot in pics but i am sorry next to Christian Bale he looks under 179cm.

Arron says on 16/Jun/11
Just met him tonight (I know everyone says this haha) but I really did! Very soft spoken in person and has that funny John Nash crooked smile :) I'm 5'10 in dress shoes and he seemed at least 1 1/2 to 2+ inches taller then me. He was wearing what looked like Nike Shox. Could've have something in em. But if not he's def the height Rob lists and some change. He was also with Eli Roth and they were walking side by side and looked an inch taller then him.

PatB says on 9/Jun/11
I watched Crowe the other night in "The Next Three Days". It isn't a very good movie. Crowe is sadly out of shape now and possibly a little shorter too. He is now a pudgy middle aged man. He is usually one of the shorter men in the film frame. I would estimate that he is about 5'8", maybe less. The average American man is about 5'9" so you should expect that walking down the street the star wearing two inch lifts should look a bit taller than most men. Crowe looks shorter.

'This man is a lift wearer just like Stallone, no doubt about it.'

this man's height is constant in all of his movies and public appearances. never is he under 5'10 or over 5'11. comparing him with Sly is like you're joking...

fuzzblaster says on 10/May/11
He's definitely no more than 5'10"...

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 27/Apr/11
5"10.5 to 5"11 looks about right...179.5cm

DejaVu says on 9/Apr/11
5'10 and can be slightly under.

Weirwolfe says on 6/Apr/11
5'9 and 1/2" barefoot, and only in the morning and standing tall with good posture I'd say. Most any shoes would make him 5'10 and 1/2". Celebrity shoe makers can easily make him appear 5'11" even with shoes that only look to have just a 1/2" heel. This man is a lift wearer just like Stallone, no doubt about it.

Joe Rossi says on 3/Apr/11
Larry is right, I have met him several times in Sydney and he is a good 1" shorter than me at 5" 10".

Lenad is sexy says on 17/Jan/11
solid 179cm guy

TruebloodFan says on 3/Jan/11
He looked 5ft10 in 'Gladiator'. But he looked 5ft11 in 'Virtuosity'. 5ft10.5 is correct.

Larry says on 20/Dec/10
My Cousin saw him at an event and said he stood no taller than me (5 9) and actually seemed shorter. look at any pics of him, he doesn't have the proportions of a 5 10-11 guy. And he deff uses lifts in his films and other times. most likely in the 5 9 range or less

Jimbo says on 10/Dec/10
Russell is not short that's for sure and looks 178cm 5'10.

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 2/Dec/10
179cm-180cm or 5"10.75...

dmeyer says on 20/Nov/10
i think he is 5 ft 10 flat he looks 2 in smaller than 6 ft bale who is for sure not over 6 ft rob is 178cm possible also there are pics of him with snoop dog wearing sleepers while crowe has nike shox crowe has 1 in advantage and dosnt even look 5 ft 11 he is about 5 ft 11.5 with 1.25 to 1.5 in heels

Anonymous says on 13/Nov/10
alwais seems 5 ft 10.25 to 5 ft 10.75 range abit over 5 ft 10 fits him

James says on 6/Nov/10
5'11 1/2 in shoes.

Matt says on 28/Oct/10
He's never looked tall to me, if he was 5'11 (and a half, as he says), I think he could get away with fudging 6'1 or so in shoes, but he certainly couldn't get away with it...obviously camera angles can show/conceal what they wish, but he has never looked like anything but average height to me, his pic with Christian Bale confirms it.
