Looks like he's 6'5" in "Getting Even With Dad". His "hair helmet" makes him look about 6'7"!! Ejel Khan says on 18/Jun/09
Claimed to be 6'3" in cheers. Lenad says on 14/Jun/09
189-190cm for peak. Hugh 190cm says on 12/Jun/09
I do still buy 6ft3 but judging by this picture either Alan is taller than 5ft10 or Danson is 6ft2 tops! Hugh 190cm says on 12/Jun/09
Yeah 6ft3 peak. He did look a strong 6ft3 next to 6ft4 Tom Selleck in Three men and a Baby. Lenad says on 9/Jun/09

189cm min 191cm max peak 188cm min 190cm max today. Rob have you ever considered giving this guy a 190cm peak height? I honestly dont think it would hurt Lenad says on 4/Jun/09
189-190cm at peak and 188-189cm today. i wouldnt go under 6ft2 today. Lenad says on 2/Jun/09
A weak 6ft3 in his youth I'd say D. Ray Morton says on 15/Apr/09
Met him last night. Still a tall guy. 6'2½-¾" is my guess. Looked 6'4" in the shoes he was wearing. yoyo says on 2/Mar/09
he is always 3cm lower tom selleck.. he was once 190tall. 189 now make sense. Fred says on 7/Feb/09
Ted with shoes could be nearly 6'3 I would say looks tall compared to most other celebritys he stars oposite of, in Gullivers travels he seemed a little short in some scenes and like a giant in other scenes wonder why??????? Lenad says on 12/Dec/08
I agree with Rob. He doesnt look a full 6ft3 but nevertheless close Hugh says on 4/Dec/08
A strong 6ft3 peak maybe. He looked close in height to Tom Selleck. RisingForce says on 30/Oct/08
I was a huge fan too Danimal. One of my all time favorite sitcoms. I remember one episode when Diane I think is dating this guy named Lance. I remember Sam is jealous that women find Lance better looking so he takes Lance's drivers license looks at it and laughs. He then says "It says here that you're 6-2", Lance replies "so" and Sam says "I'm 6-3". I agree on 6'3" peak, he towered over everyone on that show. thekiddd says on 9/Sep/08
Possibly 6'2 75." Danimal says on 31/Aug/08
I LOVED Cheers. I was a fanatic of the show and I remember taping the final episode. Ted was Sam (Ted's character) had been referred to as being a former 6'3" ball player in various episodes over the years on the show. I think he may have dropped to 6'2" since then. He is in his early 60's now. Could even be a 1/4" inch under 6'2" today, but he was a full 6'3" back in the day. He had at least 2-3" on Kelsey Grammer and at least 2" on then 6'0"-6'1" Leslie Nielson in 1981, in Creepshow). Danimal says on 31/Aug/08

He towers over Tom Hanks in 'Saving Private Ryan' Tom looks about 5'11 and Ted is easily 6'2 there is at least 3 inches height difference between them jon says on 24/Aug/08
Ted was 6'4 in his a-day i think, now 6'2 1/2 or 6'3 possibly, still a tall guy, he appeared on frasier once back in 1994 and was 3 inches taller than kelsey grammer who is 6'1 so that shows he was 6'4 maybe a shrunk a bit since then though. kieran says on 27/May/08
Ted danson is 6'2 and a half the same height as ray romano, tall guy and i love his show becker, it rules like two and a half men also kicks butt. Riverside Park says on 23/May/08
A solid 6'2.5 for Ted he always looked to be that, I did see him in person walking in Manhattan with a trench coat near Grand Central, I was holding my tea and he was holding his coffee or tea and we were both holding them in the same way and both walking briskly but he was going in the opposite direction, had a good look at how tall he was and 6'2.5 seems right on the mark. Davey says on 16/May/08
He looks easily to be 6`3.
[Editor Rob: davey, can I ask a couple times you switched name, so please don't thanks.] Seldon says on 18/Mar/08
I thought Danson looked three inches taller, at the very least, than Kelsey Grammer during the already mentioned guest appearance on Frazier. RICHARD says on 8/Mar/08
Looked 6'2 next to 6' or 6'1 Leslie Nielsen in Creepshow. He was also taller than Steve Guttenberg in 3 Men and a Baby. Lebensdorf says on 19/Feb/08
Before and ten years ago or so, when Becker was on, “6 feet” was the generalized term for anyone in the range of 6 feet (i.e., 6-0 to 6-2, maybe 6-3). My mother always insists with pride that I’m “6 feet tall,” but I’m taller. It’s really only a generalization. Now, though, people tend to be more precise. 6 feet really does mean 6 feet in our modern vernacular, and people who are taller never miss an opportunity to point this out.
I personally think Ted Danson has always looked to be about 6-3, but his “hair” has always been worn high, so… Anonymous says on 2/Feb/08
i'm watching "baby" right now,Selleck is about 2" taller than Danson in this. Socom says on 7/Dec/07
Very interesting. I seem to recall him saying in an episode of Becker he was 6 feet. Why would he round down?
[Editor Rob: no idea, but there's never any chance he was that short at peak. He might have dropped a little nowadays] Scott says on 23/Nov/07
There is no way Ted Danson is 6'5. He is an inch shorter that Tom Selleck. 6'3 for Ted. Anonymous says on 16/Nov/07
In the episode of "Frasier" in which Danson's character from "Cheers" visits Seattle, Danson looks about 2 to 3 inches taller than 6'1'' Kelsey Grammar. I know Grammar is a solid 6'1'', so could their significant height difference be due to Danson's "high" hairstyle? Well, I think Danson could easily pass for 6'3'', or taller, even. He's clearly a big man. mario says on 13/Oct/07
Ted still looks a solid 6'2 or 6'2.5 i think, he is a tall guy ,just under 6 foot 3 for me derek says on 27/Sep/07
Well I saw him on again on Conan tonight and I have to say that he looked his 6'2.5 estimate next to him. Conan even made a remark early in the interview about how it strikes him ow tall he is. Why would conan say that if he is shorter than him? Anyway I don't know why I saw 6'5 last time but his height seems to be corrwct.
[Editor Rob: in early 80's danson was being billed 6ft 2, but this guy could pass for 6ft 3.] sandy says on 16/Sep/07
His height was always wrong because he wore that hair job of his like an afro. It stuck up over his skull like two inches, that is where 6'3 came from. 6'1 to the bald head he has now(sans the wig). derek says on 14/Jul/07
I don't know why I remember him looking taller than conan when he was on, which would make him 6'5. phil says on 22/Jun/07
In the episode of Cheers where he states how tall he is, the Diane character brings in a student who has a crush on her to try to get Sam Malone jealous. Sam asks the student how tall he is and when the student says 6'2", Sam laughs and says "Ha...I'm 6'2 1/2"! Seems to me that you got his height bang on here. uww says on 22/Jun/07
yes i would say 6'2.5 is about right, he may have been 6'3 but shrunk like an inch though. sf says on 18/May/07
I have seen an article where Danson, himself, said he was 6'2" and 1/2. There's an episode of Cheers where he claims to be 6'3", when a French guy he's competing with, says he's 6'2" and 1/2.... Macgyver says on 17/May/07
I do not see why Danson does not get a peak height on her. He was clearly taller than his current height in cheers. footballed28 says on 16/Mar/07
man "Everybody rounds up not down" is such a generalization sleuth says on 4/Dec/06
I think I remember an episode of Cheers where he claims 6-2. Everybody rounds up not down. Rut says on 21/Nov/06
I don't even think he is as tall as this.
By the way what happened to him? Anonymous says on 4/Nov/06
6'2.5? Wow, I used to think Ted was like 6'4 or so, but after taking a second look at him, 6'2.5 does seem closer to the truth. Gonzalo says on 29/Sep/06
I agrre with Rob. He looks a little bit over 6`2 Mikex says on 26/Mar/06
In 3 Men and a Baby I seem to remember Danson as being shorter than Selleck by an inch or two. There is a photo linked from this site of Selleck next to 6'5'' or 6'6'' Chuck Connors and he looks dwarfed. Danson does look like a genuine 6'2'' guy though. He has that tall rangy look about him. Anonymous says on 20/Mar/06
he is 6'3 at least id say 6'3.5 DEFINATLY not under 6'3, 6'2.5 is wrong. ice says on 15/Feb/06
i agree with the 6'3... btw, will smith is 6'2, 6'1.5 at the least, so yeah 6'3 for danson bikagyura says on 8/Feb/06
definitely looks 6'3 at least Biffy says on 2/Jan/06
His height was referenced several times on Cheers as 6'3" and he certainly looked it. Some years ago, of course, but surely can't be much less now. CelebHeights Editor says on 30/Dec/05
From surfergirl:
"this was years ago - about 10 years ago. But while at fisherman's warf in SF, he was out playing with his kids and wife. He is definetly tall. I'd say 6 4 or so" Anonymous says on 27/Dec/05
was in front of me in the line at the bank in T.O. cali - and trust me this guy is 6-5 all day. Anonymous says on 1/Dec/05
He was on conan and yeah, he's gotta be at least 6'3, he wasn't that much shorter than conan, who is like 6'4. john says on 28/Sep/05
Did u see him next to Jake gyllenhaal and some other girl, he was like 5 inches taller then gyllenhaal, how can that be
[Editor Rob: I'm increasing this guy a bit...I do agree he is taller than imagined...] brett says on 16/Sep/05
Danson is not 6"2, in mug photos in the movie getting even with dad , he has a shot with shoes on obviously and it shows him to be like 6"5, so id say hes over 6"3 with no shoes easy. sam says on 17/Aug/05
He also pretty close (an inch or less difference) to Tom Selleck, who is at least 6'4". hoy says on 16/Mar/05
Ted said on The Late Show with Craig Kilborn that he's 6'2". |
