I'm pretty sure this guy is below 5'9" maybe 5'8.5" (174cm) or so. He needs a downgrade. Crazy that he is listed as being just an inch shorter than some 5'10" celebs when he clearly is more than that.

If you watch run fatboy run self proclaimed 5'11 (so he could be even smaller) Dylan moran looks at least 3 inchs taller than him. He's a strong 5'8, definitely not a full 5'9. Anonymous says on 24/Sep/09
Rob,
Like I said down the page, this guy is really only 5'8"ish.
With a 5'8" Ronan Keating:

Ronan's got a footwear advantage, here, but Pegg's in what looks to be some pretty thick shoes, himself. Regardless, Pegg is not a full 5'9". Mike says on 23/Sep/09
If he claims 5'10 he's probably 5'8'-5'9. I just watched Run, Fatboy, Run and he liked pretty small next to '5'11.25' Hank Azaria. My guess is 5'8. Daii says on 6/Sep/09
In that picture from OliTheMan he looks 5-6 inches shorter than 6'2 Eric Bana. He's probably more 5'8 than the 5'10 he claims. Tom says on 3/Sep/09
The actor in the Paintball episode is Peter Serafinowicz, who stated on the commentary for Look Around You that he is 6'4''. vigilante says on 2/Jul/09
watch the new star trek movie. Chris Pine(6'O") obviously has at least 4 inches on Simon. Jon Cho(5'10") is noticeably taller. Pilgrimtoronto says on 20/May/09
No edgar is 5'5, went to his double screening of hotfuzz/shawn of the dead at Bloor cinema and worked on scott pilgrim. Simon Pegg is 5'8 at most 5'8.5. supes78 says on 17/May/09
In either the commentary track for the Hot Fuzz or Shaun of the Dead DVDs, I could have sworn he referred to himself as being 5'8" tall. I only rented the films so I can't double-check that. Pilgrimtoronto says on 14/May/09
Edgar wright is 5'5 and simon Pegg is 5'8.5 OliTheMan says on 4/May/09

5'9 sounds good, not the 5'10 he claims that's for sure Zach says on 6/Feb/09
Jeff Bridges towered over this guy in How to Lose Friends. Granted in certain scenes he was made to look small (with the ladies in the lift etc)but there were loads of scenes with Bridges where he looked considerably smaller. danielle says on 10/Dec/08
if go 2 peggster.net and read his blogs he does say how tall he is coz he hated that people were sayin he was 5.9 ..he said he was 5.10 Random Person says on 4/Oct/08
5'8 straight up. adam says on 19/Sep/08
Timothy Dalton towered this guy in Hot Fuzz. Did look pretty short in that film. I agree with Rob, maximum 5-9 and maybe less. Daii says on 6/Aug/08
yeah id say 5'9 bang on Lmeister says on 10/Jul/08
Compared to Nick Frost he looks like a weak 5ft9. Nowadays Nick is so heavy that it makes him look an inch shorter than he really is. Rob take a look at this is. Click Here I think that Jimmy Kimmel is really around 5ft11 and David Arquette 5ft10 max. G-MANN says on 7/Jan/08
I've always wondered about this guy's height. I do think 5'10" would be too much, but compared to Nick Frost (which is certainly on the stocky side) he looks taller, especially when he got in shape for Hot Fuzz. But in that film, Jim Broadbent (who must be 6'1" or so) towered above him in some shots. 5'9" sounds about right. In Spaced he was always shorter than Mark Heap, who looks like a 6 footer to me.
Above Nick's Frost posture, it's probably because he's fat (no offence to him), men who carry a lot of weight around the middle don't seem to stand as straight as slim men. Ash says on 5/Nov/07
I've heard people say before that he's 5'10" and Frost is 5'8" but there's definitely not that much difference between them. So yeah, I'd say he's about 5'9", or 5'9" 1/2. I'm 5'7" and he's a good few inches taller than me in the picture I have with him. thekiddd says on 18/Aug/07
Well, he has a great posture unlike Nick Frost so that could make him look taller than he actually is. And Frost has a bad posture that is why he look way shorter than him sometimes. I am going to say he is 5'8 1/2 and Frost is a solid 5'7".
He is definitly not 5'10" as he claims. leonari says on 5/Aug/07
174 cm just fits him perfectly Rob...looks about 3 cms taller than Nick Frost. Bad Radio says on 4/Aug/07
looked like 5'8 on the late show with conan o'brien. RICHARD says on 5/Jul/07
Looked 5'9 or 5'10 in Shaun of the Dead so these heights seem perfect for Simon. He was notably taller than Nick Frost in the movie. MD says on 25/Jun/07
Here are some comparison's to Nick Frost given 5'7.5", here:

Maybe not a full 5'9", or perhaps, Nick Frost really is the 5'8" his agency claims.
[Editor Rob: Frost has actually woeful posture in person, he can look at times 5ft 6, the director is struggling with 5ft 6 actually, edgar wright. But pegg as I say looked near 175, although there is a chance of 174.] lance says on 19/Jun/07
In hot fuzz (about 10 min. in), after Pegg arrests those kids; the one with the traffic cone on his head is about 175cm against the height chart. You then see Pegg taking the cone off, and it’s possible to see Pegg also at about 175cm. But I’m not too sure if he was wearing his big bother boy boots though. Scarlet says on 13/Jan/07
He is the same height at Daniel Craig about 5ft 9 christobal says on 3/Jan/07
he's very small next to david schwimmer on jonathan ross. schwimmer is like 6'1 same a ross Mr D says on 20/Dec/06
Met Simon Pegg at a gig in Glasgow three years ago - 5ft 8in - 5ft 9in at the very most. 15and5'7'' says on 3/Dec/06
Pegg and Frost are both cool rob?? that's cool b/c it seems to me that most of the hollywood celebrities would b stuck up, also i'm changing my view on Pegg's height i'm gonna have to agree with the 5'9'' sighting, and yeah frost looks about 5'7'', maybe 5'7.5'' (i guess b/c he was fat in shaun of the dead i thought he was shorter lol)
[Editor Rob: seem pretty down to earth regular joe type geezers, certainly no prima donnas!] Editor Rob says on 29/Nov/06
He was at another event 2 weeks ago generating a bit of buzz for hot fuzz, and still looking 174-5cm and his buddy is maybe 1.5 inches shorter, actually both Pegg and Frost are cool guys. Mikex. says on 17/Nov/06
Does anyone remember that paintballing episode of Space with the guy from the Orange cinema ads? That guy is truly huge. Can't remember his name though. Elio says on 12/Nov/06
I always thought this guy self boosted himself when he said he was 5'10". To me he looks a weak 5'9" too. 15and5'7'' says on 10/Nov/06
yeah....this seems about right....although for some reason he seemed 5'10''-ish to me in Shaun of the Dead, (maybe it was b/c the fat guy that was a co-star was short?) |
