Midget, it wasnt quite 2" on rove.
Lmeister says on 16/Nov/09
He looks like a strong 5ft8. His boots are massive and seems that he could have some extra insoles ;) Click Here BTW someone mentioned that he is wearing Blundstone boots, but those aren't Blundstone boots. He is wearing Blundstone boots in some candid pics and even those give around 1.3-1.5 inches over barefeet.
Midget says on 15/Nov/09
He was on an aussie program "ROVE" last night wearing only thongs and he had close to 2" on the host -Rove McManus who was in converse style shoes who is supposed to be 5'7" barefoot. 5'9" for Sam would be pretty close for a morning height.
from his hometown (kind of) says on 7/Nov/09
i'm from perth and made the mistake of going to rockingham (where he is from) a couple of years ago, i knew who he was, there was a hype about him, i'd give him 5'9 in the morning and 5'8 in the evening. i'm 5'8 (female) and he said "you're pretty tall"- it was random.. btw his shoes arent huge, he used to be a brickie, they all wear shoes like that, they'd give him 1" max.
Ville says on 5/Nov/09
I think he looks about 5'10"
The Horse of FUNK says on 2/Nov/09
The more I see this guy the more 5'8" AT MOST seems possible. Sigourney Weaver flat-out owns this guy. I can't believe he's listed as 6'2" at the intarweb movie site, they're just inviting mockery for the guy over there.
RJ says on 1/Nov/09
About the discussion about his boots with no obvious heels...they are massive and has to give him atleast an inch and a half lift? If not why does he wear it everywhere? I really disagree with 5'9 if Anton Yelchin is legit 5'9 also.

JLC says on 1/Oct/09
Gotta say Im surprised at this height however I don't disagree. They made him look a lot bigger in Terminator, had to check this site to see his height.
Boxing Fighter says on 28/Sep/09
He looks very very short on terminator premiere. he looks like 5ft8 or even less WITH those horrible ridiculously big shoes.
I don't think he is 5ft6 but hes definitely no taller than 5ft9.
ThoughtProvoking says on 28/Aug/09
Looks about 5'8'' compared to Anton Yelchin and Christian Bale, so his real barefoot height could be closer to 5'7'' considering those monster shoes.
kevin says on 7/Aug/09
is he really 5'9?
Mike says on 6/Aug/09
I thought he was 6'0!
Lindsay says on 1/Aug/09
Actually the boots he wears in the movie are his own boots, and he pretty much wears them everywhere. They don't have a thick heel nor a lift. His boots are made by a company called Blundstone, and if you go to their site (Blundstone.com) they hardly have any boots with a heel, and the ones that do have a heel may be half an inch.

I saw Terminator Salvation and I never got the feeling that Sam was tall, Christian and Anton were both taller than Sam and it was obvious.

Sam is somewhere between 5'9 to 5'10. There are even videos on Youtube where Sam make cracks at his height.
Anamalech says on 29/Jul/09
Jesus Christ, I am shocked. This guy looked 6'2 in Terminator Salvation . . . 5'9 sounds right, I can't believe it . . .
Danny says on 22/Jul/09
GUK... you're kidding right ? lol. Those boots are blatantly huge and have a thick heel with an obvious lift inside. Make sure you look closely next time.
Nameless says on 7/Jul/09
YEs He Have Stated his height as 6'2(1.88m).....HOw could I thrust him He Even Look Shorter Than CHristian BAle Abt 4 inches......
Midget says on 23/Jun/09
I think Rob has him pegged right. 5'9' all day long.
GUK says on 21/Jun/09
I think some of those pictures are a bit unfair. He's closer to the 5ft 9 guy than it at first seems. The boots atre chunky but I see no evidence of massive heals.

5'8 for a girl is average now? More like 4 inches above average. That's like saying 6'2 for a guy is average.
elio says on 19/Jun/09
5'8" for a girl is NOT average. It's at least 3 inches above average. Probably the equivalent of a 6'1" guy. Presumably you're overestimating your own height if you feel average for a girl... in which case Sam Worthington might actually be about 4 inches taller than you despite his 'flaw'.
mazza says on 18/Jun/09
even during terminator myself (and soon becoming a smitten kitten),i was questioning his height even with the films dodgy height comparisons.im 5ft 8 myself, being i'd say average for a girl if he stood next to me i'd consider him to be short,with the info compared here,he's getting a 5.8/9 title it seems.though guess everybody has a flaw,dammit
flash_of_eden says on 16/Jun/09
bobo- No insecurity here. It's that sarcasm at the beginning of your post that made you come off a prick. You were also rude to Joe, when all he did was make an observation same as you. ("How old are you? Read the posts before coming here and sharing your thoughts" etc.) Uncalled for, especially when that's exactly what the comments section is for.
bobo says on 16/Jun/09
flash of eden:

easy with the insecure hate language.

I was simply stating: That is, in terminator he 'seems' taller (as you state) because this is a film. He certainly does 'seem' taller than Yelchin. But he is NOT at the premiere.; How does that observation make me a prick?
flash_of_eden says on 15/Jun/09
bobo-- Don't be a prick.

And yes, I would trust a set picture over footage from the movie. My comment was just an observation.
Flyboy says on 15/Jun/09
There is no way he is 5'11". Right now, he should count himself lucky if he manages to get a full 5'8" rating (because there's a strong argument to be made that he's shorter than that...)
Semua says on 15/Jun/09
Look at Click Here

He's 5'11. Not so bad.
Clive says on 12/Jun/09
I have seen Christian Bale in real life, he is definitely about 6'1", the idea that Bale is less than 6 feet is silly. In Terminator Salvation its really hard to tell how tall Worthington really is, in some shots he looks a bit bigger than Anton Yelchin, in other shots he looks smaller. I will guess he is 5'9" tall and not any bigger.
Josh.J says on 12/Jun/09
his next big outing is james cameron's "Avatar". i can already assure everyone that it will be impossible to judge his height in the movie. as a human he's in a wheelchair and as an "avatar" he'll be CGI'd to be a giant.
Jane says on 9/Jun/09
just saw terminator salvation and wow he is hot but that movie totally made him look way taller. i came on here just to check because in some shots of the movie he looked really tall and in others he seemed shorter. he has a great body and the movie did a wonderful job of portraying him as a powerhouse of a man. despite his rather short appearance especially in this pic at the premier. i give him anywhere from 5'7.5-5'9

Flyboy says on 9/Jun/09
I doubt it has much to do with Yelchin's height; I think that Worthington is just a shorter guy made to look as big and tall as he possibly can. They did a good job of that in TS. Here, take a look at this photo:

Click Here

1. They are more or less level pegging. No angle will ever be perfect on this site, but this photo's angle is certainly in the better 50% of photos.

2. Yelchin's head and shoulders are lowered; if he were to stand tall, he'd probably be beating Worthington in that photo. And this is despite...

3. Worthington's boots are munsters. If you don't think he's getting a height boost from them, then look again. Notice how Worthington is *leaning forward* in that photo from a stationary position. That is only possible if you have some leverage at ground level, ie lifts in the boots.

In the film, I got the impression that Marcus Wright was considerably taller and bigger than the young Kyle Reese; I think everybody got that impression. But that photo alone should tell us that, actually, they were using the magic of cinema to make Worthington look more physically imposing than he actually is.

There are no photographs showing Worthington taller than, or even as tall as, Yelchin. We have seen him beaten on many occasions, convincingly so by the 6' Christian Bale. And this is all despite Worthington sporting nothing but grade A munsters in the movie and at premieres. To be honest, I'd be tempted to put him in the 5'7" region, perhaps 5'7.25 - 5'7.75" or something.
JJ says on 8/Jun/09
Rob, I think it's clear this guy isn't 5'9. 5'8 tops, could be 5'7 in the evening.
ed says on 8/Jun/09
it's weird how some pictures Yelchin, Bale, and Sam all look the same height and then some group shots Sam looks like a midget. I guess it's the angle of the camera. In the movie Sam looked like a giant compared to Yelchin. Wonder if he grew in the past 2 yrs. He was probably 17 when he was filming. Can anyone confirm if Yelchin Grew?

I thought Sam was pretty solid in that movie. actually didn't like the end.
JJ says on 7/Jun/09
Great, we have another Tom Cruise on our hands.
frank says on 7/Jun/09
why is he listed as 6'2 on imdb
SAM says on 7/Jun/09
more like 5ft8, hes about 1-2 inches shorter than anton yeltchin.
Flyboy says on 7/Jun/09
The only thing we can be certain of is that Bale is taller than Yelchin, and Yelchin is taller than Worthington (and yes, we can be certain of that -- those premiere pictures are conclusive from all angles). The photos would put Bale at 6', Yelchin at 5'9 and Worthington at 5'7.

I'm as shocked as anybody else. They really did make him look like a big guy in Terminator. I think Rob is probably right to err on the side of caution for now, though I'd take the middle ground of 5'8. Worthington's going to become a big star, so we'll soon have more photos to get a more substantial answer.
bobo says on 4/Jun/09
I think he is below 5.9 as well. THose boots are just too big
Josh.J says on 3/Jun/09
i think mr worthington needs a downgrade. he's clearly shorter than anton yelchin who is 5'9 on this site. so either worthington's 5'7.5~5'8 or yelchin is 5'10. also bale does look 5'11~5'11.5 to yelchin. i dont see 3 inches between them.
bobo says on 1/Jun/09
Joe: How old are you? Maybe read the thread before coming on here and letting us know your thoughts. Yes, we know Bale is taller than Worthington, we have all seen the pics aswell, but the size of Worthington's boots plus the difference beteeen him and Bale point to lower than 5.10 for Worthington.

Bale is contracted to three Batman films. The chances of him not doing the role are next to non existent. He would be sued by everyone and anyone who have a vested interest in him reprising the role. He has stated he wants Nolan to direct but he has no real say. The studio might want to think about keeping him happy for marketing purposes but he is 100% committed to a third film.
Joe says on 1/Jun/09
I saw a photo Sam Worthington standing next to Christian Bale at the premiere of
Terminator Salvation. Bale was clearly taller than Worthington. My guess is that he is 5'10" tall. I heard a rumor that he might replace Bale in the sequel to the Dark Knight. I really hope not, Bale really fits the Batman character better than any actor out there. He did to Batman what Christopher Reeve did to Superman.
bobo says on 1/Jun/09
flash of eden.: Yes but that was in the film, Sunshine. This is a real life picture, you know, off a movie set. Which do you take as more valid? A close up on a film or a long shot at a premiere?
JJ says on 31/May/09
5'8 would be my guess. He was the only good part about the new Terminator movie.
flash_of_eden says on 31/May/09
Anything under 6' for Christian Bale is ludicrous. As for Sam Worthington, he seemed quite a bit taller than 5'9" Anton Yelchin in Terminator.
Rick says on 30/May/09
Geez, on this very picture, Bale is 6' and Sammy boy is straining to look 5'9 with enormous boots.
bobo says on 30/May/09
I am confused. How does this pic show Bale's height? Height is relative. We are debating Worthington's height and so any 'proof' is transient and open to change. If we accept Worthington is around 5.9, then Bale is around 6 foot. If you are stating that Bale is below 5.11 then Worthington becomes 5.8 and below.
Danyel says on 27/May/09
Geez...on this very picture, we have proof that Bale is not 6´at all but rather 5´11´´and have you noticed Worthington´s boots??
bobo says on 27/May/09
he is Cruise height. But the hypocritical press like him, so for now all we are seeing is stuff about how 'stocky' and 'burly' he is. Wait till he is a major star and then they will turn on him and you will start to see the 'not as tall as you think' comments start to creep in and then outright hostility with 'Shorty" comments. They completely ignored his shoes on this premiere. Fine by me. As soon as he makes a couple of successful films you will Sly Stallone levels of hatred from the press. Wankers.
Erica says on 27/May/09
Here is a picture of Worthington, Yelchin and Bale standing flat on the ground with their feet visible and boy... he's pretty short:

HUGE, duck-like shoes though. LOL
OliTheMan says on 26/May/09
lol.. hes listed as 6"1"
danny says on 26/May/09
damn he looked he really huge in terminator
Dr. Staure says on 25/May/09
Those boots are huge!!! That chunky look is soo 3rd Quarter 99.... Nobody is wearing that look right now ( except sammy the bull).... especially with a suit that has tappered legs... Its not as bad as what Downey has sported but its not stealth either. The press seems to like him so he has not received alot of Shorty comments....I must say that with his " lean buff build" he does wear his height well... but i havent seen alot of pics on this guy.... but for now I see : strong 5'7 1/2 (barefoot) ... Standing on Chevy Suburans (Demolition Boots) I see a 5'9 1/2 -5'10
RisingForce says on 24/May/09
he wears huge boots, but nobody and i mean nobody can challenge robert downey jr. for biggest footwear. whether it be the stripper heels, the 2 inch lifts/sneaker combo or the chunky platforms, downey jr. will always wear the biggest shoes.

anyway my first guess on worthington is 5-8. even with boots he was atleast 5 inches shorter than 6-2 james cameron who was wearing dress shoes. with big boots he looked possibly 3 inches shorter than 6-0 christian bale. he can pass for this 5-9 listing if you ignore his boots.
Josh.J says on 23/May/09
he is definitely shorter then anton yelchin WITH those monster boots. must be in the 5'7, 5'8 range. oh and if yelchin is legit 5'9 then bale is more like 5'11
friggin' hot says on 22/May/09
he's friggin' hot. and he looks dwarfed by christian bale (6') no way is he 5'9"
bobo says on 21/May/09
Rising: Its because I love you, baby.

Antonio: Yeah i agree. He may be rejuvenate this site since we all solved Pitt and Stallone's height.
Antonio says on 20/May/09
Since he has only been around since 2000, there is just not a lot of photos of him. The more I look at the existing pics, the smaller he gets.

His shoes are enormous. He may be another Robert Downey Jr. He might be closer to 5-7. Time will tell.
RisingForce says on 20/May/09
i'm laughing at bobo's obsession with me. you say i upgrade everyone, but i have pitt at the exact same height rob does and i have vin diesel 1/4 inch below rob's listing. it's pretty funny that you feel the need to mention me in every single post you make.
Brad says on 20/May/09
He's getting Penn'd to Hirsch with Bale. 5' 8".

rob this photo is taken head on.. not much, if any tilt
he does look pretty diminutive.. i'm surprised, his appearance kinda gives u the impression of a huge guy
Rick says on 19/May/09
Rob,

You are usually spot on. But not here. Sam is absolutely dominated by Bale, who some argue is a weak 6 footer. And Sammy the Bull is wearing huge footwear. I wonder why? And I still see more than 4 inches between he and Bale. This guy is barely 5'7".

[Editor Rob: 5ft 9 flat is about it for now, some of the photos are tilted which might make it appear more. I'm not as convinced as you.]
Anonymous says on 19/May/09
under 5'9", but over 5'8"
bobo says on 19/May/09
Thats what is so annoying about the celeb game. Its peopled by real idiots. They have a website stating he is 6 foot 2 and show pics oh him 4 inches shorter than Bale and the same height as the old lady.

So what, Bale is 6.foot 6 now is he? And thats one tall old Lady. And according to them, McG is going on 6 foot 5.

I think 5.8.

Who stated 6.foot 2? its nuts.

Wait, it might well be Rising.

I can't wait for that guy to get on here. He will take an average of everyone's else guess. And then add exactly one inch.
Antonio says on 18/May/09
That was my post above, estimating 5-8 ... maybe!
I can't get over his shoes here. It looks like he's standing on a couple of Chevy Suburbans!

Anonymous says on 18/May/09
Tim, your right! I found this.

Click Here

That;s such a joke. I'm sure some will even give him the benefit of the doubt and compromise with a 6' estimate. He isn't remotley close to 6'. I haven't looked at many photos, but my initial estimate is 5-8. I'll be checking him out more closely.
bobo says on 18/May/09
Rob. I think its time for either two things:

1. We get Rising Fore in here to argue Worthington is 5.11 or exactly one inch taller than everyone else says he is

2. You Go with the evidence and downgrade him to 5.8

[Editor Rob: some of those photos are tilted a bit, there's a bunch of them on getty I looked at, there was a couple near james cameron worth looking at.]
Lmeister says on 18/May/09
I agree with Amanda. Without his boots he is shorter than Anton Yelchin Click Here He does have a great built which makes him look taller. He might be a strong 5ft8, but could be even shorter.
Anonymous says on 18/May/09
alright make it DEFINITELY not 176...
Click Here
look at his footwear aswell? i realize his head is tilted but cmon that is not a 176 tall man
Anonymous says on 18/May/09
this guy is not even 176 rob.. clearly shorter than 5 9 Anton Yelchin in all the premiere photos
Random Person says on 17/May/09
Hmmm, 5'8 or 5'9..not sure on this guy.
Amanda says on 16/May/09
I was just looking at the pics of the Terminator premiere and even with the boots he is still shorter than Anton who is billed as only 5’9 and a lot shorter than McG and Bale. I would go with a range of 5’7 to 5’8. Look at Bryce Dallas Howard in those pics she’s 5’8 and has on at least 3 inch heels making her like 5’11 and she’s taller than him by an inch or two.

bobo says on 15/May/09
have a look at the terminator premiere pics. He has major builder's boots on and he still looks 5.9 next to 6ft Bale. He is smaller than ALL of his female co stars. Thats not a 5.10 guy. he looks great on screen though. Good luck to him.
Anon says on 15/May/09
Saw pictures from the Terminator Salvation premiere and he looks considerably shorter than 6 foot Bale. At least 2-3 inches shorter. He must have been wearing heels to be face-to-face with Bale in those shots in the movie. Ah, movie magic.
Random Person says on 9/Apr/09
5'10.75
tim says on 10/Mar/09
whoa, i swear i saw him credited as 6'2 at one point. i didn't completely beleive it but i would beleive 6 foot maybe a little over.

i was a bit confused when i saw macbeth about his height as he did look quite short. but i reckon he's about 5'11.5 as he is shown as a bit shorter than bale.
Erica says on 18/Dec/08
In Somersault next to 5'8" Abbie Cornish he did not look very tall. 5'9" ish.
OutBenchThis says on 22/Sep/08
Rob, he did an Australian film where I live..I'll have to ask some friends who worked with him what they thought his height was. I was under the impression he's around 5'9" but I'll get back to you.
Tru Slide says on 10/Aug/08
He's like the shortest one in Macbeth in all of the scenes. Even his wife is as tall as him. He's 5'10 or could be less. He must be wearing lifts to be eye to eye with CB.
balegirl says on 4/Aug/08
where does 5'10 come from? i just saw him in a still from T4 and he is taller than CB.
AA says on 10/Feb/07
6'2"??? How can this be??
Anonymous says on 2/Mar/06
iv seen him up close he looked more like 6ft
