I think he's dropped a cm or 2. Tall can loose height more than shorter or average people.
Anonymous -15 says on 30/Nov/08
I doubt he's lost much height at 50 years of age , but I have to admit I thought he was a legit 6'5" in The Shawshank Redemption.
anonymous says on 28/Nov/08
6 foot 5.
Lenad says on 27/Nov/08
Well Big King they dont call you Big for nothing
James says on 27/Nov/08
he could look 198cm in early photos from his carrer due to his slim buid back then.
Hugh says on 27/Nov/08
possibly a strong 6ft5 peak. But the 198cm seems a bit high.
James says on 24/Nov/08
He did look prettey tall in the Shawshank Redemption, a 6ft5 man for sure in that movie.
Lenad says on 23/Nov/08
I can buy 195cm at the lowest.
anonymous says on 23/Nov/08
In anti trust and shawshank redemption, he looks 6 foot 5. I thought he was 6 foot 3 when I thought morgan freeman was 6 foot. He's a really tall man. He didnt look that tall in shawshank redemption or antitrust but when he was standing next to 5 foot 8 ryan phillipe, he was a giant.
Big King says on 21/Nov/08
Also if Robbins was 198cm in the morning, it would be right to give him 6'6" too.

I sometimes have the feeling that Robbins has exactly the same height as me, if not a bit shorter but I doubt it because he looks gigantic!!!
James says on 15/Nov/08
Not really Lenand, but there is one recent pic of him next to Bill Murray where he looks 6ft4 tops though. Seriously though 6ft4 is a bit ridicolous I still maintain that he was a legit 6ft5 at peak.
Lenad says on 15/Nov/08
Robbins can look 6'4 tops I'll admit that.
James says on 10/Nov/08
Philip Noyce is a 6ft4.5 guy and Robbins always looked a bit taller to me.
James says on 6/Nov/08
No I don't really belive 198cm, possibly after a very good nights sleep in Tims youth he might have just touched 198cm but most of the time 196cm-197cm tops at his peak. It woulden't suprise me if he has lost 1cm or 2cm already since taller people shrink faster.

The funny thing is though that there is one pic of him next to Clive Owen where he looks ner 4 inches taller.
Hugh says on 6/Nov/08
Actually I'm beginning to agree with James. A strong 6ft5 for Tim doesn't seem out of the question. Might even have been 198cm. This guy is hard to pin.
James says on 5/Nov/08
I think currently he is 195cm
Lenad says on 5/Nov/08
195cm at least. Could be wrong though
James says on 4/Nov/08
Looked perhaps 6ft5.5 in the Shawshank Redemption next to Morgan Freeman.
Danimal says on 3/Nov/08
HE has been described as having been 6'7" in the past. He definitely looked in next to Morgan Freeman in Shawshank Redemption.
James says on 3/Nov/08
I am not saying now he looks 197cm but in his early carrer he did look a solid 6ft5 to me.
Hugh says on 1/Nov/08
Now James, I'm not sure if Tim was ever above 6ft5. He's a huge guy no question but 197cm does seem a little high. But you're entitled to your opinions.
James says on 31/Oct/08
Well Big King realisticly I don't think he is 6ft7. He could possibly be claiming 6ft4.5 before bed late at night, or in the past Robbins could have measured at night time 195cm and just consider that 6ft4.5 hence why he claims 6ft4 1/2. I would upgrade him to at least 195cm and 196cm would be perfect.

I think since he is 50 he might have lost 1cm in height so here is what i think his height used to be in his youth.

morning 197cm-198cm
afternoon 196cm-197cm
night 195cm.

I think know Tim Robbins is 195cm or on a bad day 194cm.
Big King says on 31/Oct/08
Just because of his 6'4 1/2" claiming it doesn't mean the he is that tall. We all know that he's at least 6'5". And James, I also thought that Robbins has to be around 6'7" when I saw Nothing to lose.
James says on 27/Oct/08
Actually considering this guy is only 50 I think his peak height was 196-197cm and he has shrunk slightly to 195cm today. In glenns top pic as well part of Tims head is blanked a bit by the black background and almost looks like he is bending his neck ever so slightly as well. In the bottom pic with glenn Tim also seems to be hunching a little as well.
James says on 27/Oct/08
Yeah Tim Robbins made Martin Lawrence look like a little kid in Nothing to Loose, I mean Tim looked like a blooming giant in that movie, if I didn't know his height I would have thought 6ft7 in that movie. He towered John C Mcginely as well. Infact in a scene from the movie with Mcginely and Robbins, John squares up to big Tim and points a gun at his face and you can see just how much Mcginely has to look up at him. Mcginely is no small man standing at 6ft1 as well. I am still sure this guy could have been a little over 6ft5 at peak.
Big King says on 27/Oct/08
There is one thing I forgot to mention. Robbins has three inches on 6'2 1/2" Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redemption.
Big King says on 27/Oct/08
Yes, Robbins doesn't look 6'5" beside Glenn but in several films like Nothing To Lose he appears to be huge! He towers over a head beside Martin Lawrence who is 5'8" at his peak!
James says on 24/Oct/08
He doesn't look as tall as i would have imagined in glenns pictures with the guy. In both pictures he looks 6ft3.5. But then we have to consider the perspective the photos were taken at?
Korben says on 24/Oct/08
Hey rob now that glenns back can we get those 2 pics back? they were great
James says on 23/Oct/08
Big King yeah but sometimes you are slightly less than your real afternoon height in the evening.
James says on 23/Oct/08
Clancy Brown was probably 6ft3.5 at peak and yes Robbins did look like 2 inches taller than Brown.
Big King says on 23/Oct/08
Or maybe 197cm is a bit overestimated for him. If he really stands at 6'4 1/2" in the evening then he could be 6'5" at the same time when I'm 6'6". Maybe he's an inch shorter than me if Rob is right with his estimation.
Lenad says on 23/Oct/08
I'd give him a solid 6'5. He had a good couple of inches on Freeman and Brown who i think are in the 6'2.5-6'3 range.
James says on 22/Oct/08
Rob like you say if he shrinks quite a lot during the day is thier chance when gets older that perhaps he might shrink more than the average man maybe not as severe as Clint Eastwood shrunk though!
James says on 21/Oct/08
so his afternoon height could be 195cm or 196cm and his out of bed height 197cm or just maybe 198cm, although i don't think i would go that high.
James says on 21/Oct/08
Rob what would u bet more money on 6ft4.5 for Tim Robbins or the full 6ft5?

[Editor Rob: I would think 6ft 4.5...in the evening, he may be one who shrinks a lot and could be losing a full inch or even 3cm from bed to night.]
James says on 20/Oct/08
In most places Tim Robbins is described and listed as 6ft5, bizzarely once one place gave him 6ft4 (193cm).
Lenad says on 20/Oct/08
Maybe 198-ish in the morning and 196-ish in the evening. He looks too tall to be a 6'4-ish guy
James says on 19/Oct/08
Tim Robbins in photos from his early carreer looks taller than say a 6ft5 guy like Vince Vaugh.
Hugh says on 19/Oct/08
I can buy 6ft5 for Robbins but no more than that.
Big King says on 18/Oct/08
He could be almost 6'5" nowadays but I'm sure that he was at least 6'5" in his younger days.
James says on 16/Oct/08
I do think years a go he did look to me 197cm. I think he's lost 2cm or at the very max 3cm from his peak height.
James says on 16/Oct/08
Everyone seems to agree that he is 6ft5
Big King says on 15/Oct/08
I looked for Robbins' height infos and I didn't find a source where it is written that Robbins is at 6'5 1/2". His height is mostly at 6'5" in the most websites. Less websites say that his height is 6'4 1/2".
James says on 14/Oct/08
Fair enough Big King in the past he has looked at least 6ft5, I think his current height is 194-195cm and at peak he might have been pushing 197cm, but he has got good posture though so i am suprised he has shrunk a little i mean he's only like 49 or 50. For his sake I hope he dosen't shrink 3 inches like Clint Eastwood did.
Big King says on 14/Oct/08
James, maybe Robbins has shrunk just 1/4 inch. In his prime he was at least 6'5".
James says on 11/Oct/08
I suspect Tim Robbins has shrunk a little becuase in recent pics next to Bill Murray he dosen't actually look that much taller, not even 3 inches.
Lenad says on 11/Oct/08
Doesnt look a hair under 6'5 next to Morgan Freeman and Clancy Brown
James says on 10/Oct/08
Yeah he can indeed look a solid 6ft5 at times.
Lenad says on 10/Oct/08
The thing about this guy is that although he said he is 6'4 1/2 I sure think he is more.
Gonzalo says on 10/Oct/08
He is very tall. He always looks as tall next to people as I expected. He looks taller than 1`94 to me. I see him more at 1`96
Disec says on 7/Oct/08
Man I saw him yesterday on the Daily show and when he stood next to Jon Stewart, he looked like a huge giant, the way that Gandalf looked next to Frodo in the Lord of the Rings... I even wondered if they used any special effects...
James says on 3/Oct/08
Yeah Viper I just thought in recent pics he's just not looking as tall as he used to like closer to 6ft4, not denying he might have been a bit taller than he is now when he was in his 20's. Tall people sometimes do shrink faster than shorter people or people of average proportions.
Viper says on 1/Oct/08
Ive said this before but Robbins looked like an absolute tower when I saw him live on tv at a John Edwards rally. The way he towered over everyone I could believe 6-6 for the dude. I dont think hes shrunk at all, since this was recently. Whatever he is he can sure look taller.
James says on 29/Sep/08
Big King people on the Brad page are insisiting he is only 5ft9 but he is still listed at 5ft11, just a thought really.

In recent photos Tim Robbins is only looking 6ft4, I think he might have shrunk a bit but at peak yeah i think thier is a good chance he was 6ft5. Taller people sometimes do shrink faster than people of average or short height.
Big King says on 29/Sep/08
You see Rob? Everyone on this page says that Robbins is at least 6'5". Why can't you change his height to 6'5" then? Why are you so stubborn? Also Christopher Lee has downgraded his 6'5" height to 6'4" and his peak height is still at 6'5" on CelebHeights.
James says on 23/Sep/08
There is no way though I would belive 6ft4 flat for him, because he noitibley above that.
Viper says on 22/Sep/08
Robbins is one of the very few guys on here who could be underlisted, because he does look 6-5 at least in many pics.
James says on 22/Sep/08
Tim Robbins didn't look as tall as I expected in glenns pics, but glenn did say he slept days and maybe Tim Robbins shrunk slightly during the course of the day giving glenn an advantage.
Big King says on 21/Sep/08
Come on, Rob. His 6'4 1/2" claiming is a joke. He's clearly taller. 6'5 1/2" is his height.
James says on 15/Sep/08
Anonymous3 yeah I get you, but glenn did not see this guy as tall as you say? He said he was 6ft5 tops?
Anonymous3 says on 14/Sep/08
definite 6ft5-6ft5.5 jeez would you people look at how massive this fellow is? upgrade him to a 6ft5, he is too tall to be in 6ft4 range.... obviously 196-197cm.....he is more likely closer to 6ft5.5 pushing 6ft6 than 6ft4.... anyone else have any takes on this?
Lenad says on 13/Sep/08
My brother said after watching Shawshank Redemption "Hes a big F###er!! 6'5 or something!!"
James says on 12/Sep/08
Maybe he's a tall looking 6ft4.5 guy? Take into account a lof of guys around Tim Robbins size slouch a lot making them look shorter than they actually are. Robbins is an exception though because he does stand with Brad Pitt quite a lot.

Lennox Lewis who is 6ft4 3/4 can look 6ft3 sometimes in pics because he tends to slouch quite a bit, it just goes to show you.
Big King says on 11/Sep/08
I mean, there is also an actor named Christopher Lee who is 6'5" and who has downgraded his height to 6'4" but Rob still lists his peak height at 6'5". I wonder why Rob won't give Robins 6'5" too on this page. No matter what Robbins said about his height. That guy is at least 6'5". That's that!
James says on 11/Sep/08
del torso is 188cm.
James says on 9/Sep/08
I remember there was scene in which Tim and 6ft4.5 Stephen Fry stood next to each other and Robbins did look to have around an inch on Fry
Big King says on 9/Sep/08
Yes. Exactly.
James says on 9/Sep/08
So Big King you think both Durand and Tim Robbins are 6ft5 1/2?
Big King says on 9/Sep/08
That's really strange for example. In Big Momma's House 2 and in Wild Hogs, the 6'6" mentioned Kevin Durand didn't look huge beside Martin Lawrence but Tim Robbins looked like a giant beside Lawrence. It is 100% sure that Robbins might be taller than Kevin Durand. Screw that 6'6" for Kevin Durand, I also told Rob that it would be better and more realistic to give Durand 6'5" or maybe 6'5 1/2" or something in that way. Durand is not a full 6'6"!
James says on 8/Sep/08
Big King yeah I could see nearly a foot difference in that movie with Martin Laurence, I thought he looked 6ft7 in that film. Remember how short Tim Robbins made John C Mcginely look as well in Nothing to Loose.
Big King says on 8/Sep/08
I mean, in the film Big Momma's House 2, Lawrence was standing in front of Kevin Durand and Durand looked almost a head taller than Lawrence and in the film Nothing to Loose, Tim Robins looked more than a head taller than Lawrence. Robbins is certainly not shorter than Durand. I guess Robbins and Durand are around 6'5 1/2".
Big King says on 7/Sep/08
Robbins looked huge beside Martin Lawrence in the film Nothing to lose. I'm sure that there was almost a foot height difference between them. If Robins is 6'5" then Lawrence is no more than 5'7" or under. Another strange thing is that Robbins looked a lot taller beside Martin Lawrence than Kevin Durand who is at 6'6" on CelebHeights.
James says on 7/Sep/08
Tim Robbins can look 6ft6 but not 6ft7 though, 6ft8 is madness.
Big King says on 7/Sep/08
A.G., no wonder why you estimated Tim as 6'7" with your 5'5". No, I promise you that Robbins is not over 6'5" but he has downgraded his height for a half inch.
James says on 6/Sep/08
A.G lol you serious 6ft8?
A.G. says on 5/Sep/08
I met Tim Robbins this summer and I am 5'5" - he is EASILY 6'7" - 6'8" he towered over my 6'4" brother....
James says on 25/Aug/08
Looked max 2 inches taller than Clancy Brown to me
Lenad says on 22/Aug/08
Looked 2-3 inches taller than 6'3 Clancy Brown.
Alex says on 10/Aug/08
Its not often but sometimes guys who are a taller than they'd like to be or something will downgrade themselves, even if its 1/2 inch.
Alex V. says on 3/Aug/08
Robbins and Costner Click Here
Yaspaa says on 2/Aug/08
In that baseball movie with Kevin Costner,Eight Men Out I think,he didn't look over 6'5,I've seen him plenty of times in other stuff looking taller than 6'5 however,Shawshank being one example.
BC88 says on 30/Jul/08
Wait a minute, after viewing some great new pictures I found, I now believe that Tim Robbins is easily 6'5―", but more like 6'6" and above. Just look at these:
From the new movie coming out "The Lucky Ones"; with 5'7" Michael Pena and 5'5" Rachel McAdams: Click Here
Tim easily has a whole foot on both of them. Of course he does have the higher ground, I can't imagine there being that much of a difference even on level ground. And plus Tim has his head hanging down too and still has at least 1 foot on them
&
With 6'2" Benicio Del Toro: Click Here
Tim has close to 4 inches on him and isn't even standing straight. So I now conclude that the absolute minimum he should be listed is 6'5―", but it seems and a lot more like 6'6" and up.
Alex V. says on 23/Jul/08
Hello everyone... For me, not the full 6'5" but very close to it (like Cleese for instance).
BC88 says on 23/Jul/08
Ok, after all the evidence, pictures ect., I have come up with a conclusion that Tim is 6' 5" without shoes and 6'6" in shoes. Everybody can agree with that now can't they? Now if only his height could be upgraded on this site.
deno says on 18/Jul/08
he defo looks 6 5 or a little more he towers freeman

He isn't above 6'5". I'm not going to say it again.

Then don't.

Lenad says on 27/Jun/08
Justin says on 21/Apr/08
I just played hockey with Tim yesterday and let me say on skates he towered over me big time.
Keep believing pal!
Danimal says on 24/Jun/08
Again, a fellow actor who worked on the set with him described in as being 6'7". He had inches on Morgan Freeman, who was still CLOSE to 6'3" in Shawshank Redemption.
Anonymous says on 24/Jun/08
6'5" or 6'6" defenitly this guy sure does tower over glen in the photos.
Lenad says on 17/Jun/08
Just upgrade him dude! Hes 6'5 and its so obvious!
thekiddd says on 3/Jun/08
HE IS NOT OVER 6'5"! But he might have shaved a 1/2" of height when he said 6'4 1/2"
glenn says on 28/May/08
thanks nicole.
RAZOR says on 26/May/08
James, you're right but Robbins is over 6'4 1/2", trust me.
nicole says on 26/May/08
Wow, excellent photos by the way Glenn. Tim looks easy 6ft 5inch.Very tall man.
RAZOR says on 25/May/08
James, I don't think that Robbins wears lifts but he's clearly over 6'4 1/2", that's for sure because he's at least 6'5". He's almost 6'6" tall but it seems that Robbins doesn't care about his height. He's maybe using his lowest height. Maybe he's 6'4 1/2" at night but in the forenoon, he's surely at least 6'5" as mentioned. So taking his height as 6'5 1/2" won't be wrong. That's his true height I guess!
Viper says on 19/May/08
He looked 6-6 on video standing behind 5-10 1/2-5-11 John Edwards. The guy was sorrounded by people and he looked like a skyscraper. Towered everyone with ease. I was surprised.
Alex V. says on 18/May/08
1m95 is the number. He said once that he was 6'5 on a good day but has said also that he is 6'4.5 so 1m95 is on the target.
thekiddd says on 17/May/08
I agree you guys that he is probably above 6'4 1/2", but he isn't above 6'5"! He isn't taller than that.
RAZOR says on 15/May/08
Yes, I think he would be 6'5 1/4" (196cm) out of bed, not 6'5 1/2" (197cm) otherwise there would be another source what describes Robbins being 197cm tall.
RAZOR says on 14/May/08
James, I don't believe that Robbins is 6'6" out of bed because otherwise his real height would be 6'6" but I guess he is 6'5" in the forenoon and 6'4 1/2" late in the afternoon or even in the evening. Maybe Robbins doesn't care about his height but claiming his worst height is nonsense and James, keep in mind: Glenn is 5'8" out of bed too and he uses this height as his real height. I use my forenoon height too. I'm 6'5" in the forenoon, just like Tim Robbins I guess.
Viper says on 30/Apr/08
Robbins is one of the very few guys who I wouldnt be surprised is taller than his listed height on here. Again, one of the very, very few on here from my perspective.
Alex V. says on 30/Apr/08
1m95 is what i think James...
Alex V. says on 29/Apr/08
lol (James)
Korben says on 26/Apr/08
Tim has a pretty big head (well hes a big dude lol). For his closed mouth to be at glens 173cm head, he'd have to be at least 195cm barefoot. I dont see him being taller then vince vaugn, but he could be. Id say 196.5 morning, 195 afternoon, 194 night.

[Editor Rob: his head is same size as glenn's in bottom pic, so if you think it's bigger than glenn's then robbins isn't on the same plane.]
luke says on 25/Apr/08
he was my friend when I was young.When he was 18 he was 1,94-1,95.now he is 1,96-1,97
Danimal says on 25/Apr/08
Rinkydick says on 25/Apr/08
He is 194cm max barefoot. Believe me.

If you tell us to believe you, then I guess we have no choice but to, right?
Danimal says on 23/Apr/08
James says on 22/Apr/08
Yep most people on this website who they have met celebs in person yet have no evidense never post on this site again lol.

Who have CLAIMED to have met celebs. There's also the other breed who claim that they are 7'0" footers and tower over everyone.
Danimal says on 22/Apr/08
Justin says on 21/Apr/08
I just played hockey with Tim yesterday, and let me say on skates he towered over me big time.

Wow, this guys tells everyone how Tim towered over him in skates?? YET, fails to mention his own height and I'm 100% sure we'll never hear from Justin again. So typical of this site and some of the people who frequent it..haha
Justin says on 21/Apr/08
I just played hockey with Tim yesterday, and let me say on skates he towered over me big time.
Danimal says on 20/Apr/08
Sorry, but he had more than 2" on 6'2"-6'3" Morgan Freeman (15 years ago).
Ray says on 17/Apr/08
In that film I.Q. with Stephen Fry I seem to remember him being exactly the same height so 6'4.5" is spot on.
glenn says on 17/Apr/08
tim looks 6-4 or 6-5 to me at times.depending.never taller or shorter.
glenn says on 16/Apr/08
interesting.never really paid attention to him.maybe he was 6-6 peak.
Danimal says on 15/Apr/08
Had about 4" on Morgan Freeman in Shawshank and Morgan was nothing less than 6'2"-6'3" 15 years ago. I say that Robbins was minimum 6'6" in his younger days and downgraded his own height. If he didn't, then he was the tallest 6'4.5"-6'5" actor of all time, making other very tall actors (Danny Aiello in Jacob's Ladder) look tiny.
Yaspaa says on 15/Apr/08
No idea mate.
Yaspaa says on 15/Apr/08
Big dude. Click Here 6'5 easy.
Yaspaa says on 15/Apr/08
With 6'2.75 Liev Schreiber,I still think he's a proper 6'5er. Click Here
Yaspaa says on 15/Apr/08
I think Tim scrapes 2 inches here. Click Here
glenn says on 15/Apr/08
im with thekidd on this one.
thekiddd says on 15/Apr/08
Why does everyone like the sound of 6'5 1/2" so much? That should be debated with actors who are 6'6".
thekiddd says on 13/Apr/08
To James.

I know that. The editor says above that he looks 6'5" to him but put him at almost 6'5" because it is what he quoted.
BC88 says on 12/Apr/08
I'd say he is 6' 5" easy and maybe even 6' 6". I make this judgment from the photos and the movies he was in.
Viper says on 3/Apr/08
Tim is one of the few guys where he really could be downplaying his height.
thekiddd says on 1/Apr/08
No, he is not 6'5 1/2". I agree with the editor. 6'5".
Zeala says on 13/Mar/08
Robbins, taking your height as 6' 4 1/2" is a huge mistake. You are exactly an inch above your claimed height, namely 6'5 1/2"!!
ed says on 9/Mar/08
towers over Costner in Bull Durham...looks more like a 5 in difference than a 3.5 one
Anonymous says on 29/Feb/08
If all this information is correct then it should be 21 - 22 cm from between Robbins nose and upperlip to the top of his head. Which is probably true, im to tired to measure a human head now :)
Jake Is Back says on 28/Feb/08
He's a good 6'4", pushing 6'5". People sometimes jump to 6'6" because they don't know what 6'4" and change looks like.
Mark D. says on 17/Feb/08
I would say 6'4.5" is correct. It's a weird height to be as I'm that tall and
built simiar (lanky), also with very thick hair. Needless to say few believe
I am 'only' 6'4.5". I hear 'estimates' of 6'5"-6'6" constantly, but they're
folks who think I'm suuposed to 'round up' or use 'with shoes' measurement.
Alex V. says on 14/Feb/08
In "The Player" movie, there is a lineup scene. Tim is wearing flat shoes and the mark is 6'5 1/2. You people should see the movie and judge for yourself...
My statement is the same, 1m95.
Gonzalo says on 14/Feb/08
He looks very tall but I see him at 1`97 at the most. 2 meters sounds too much for him. Tall guy anyway
Viper says on 11/Feb/08
I could maybe beleive 6-7 in shoes Danimal. He has given off a 6-6 impression before.
glenn says on 11/Feb/08
6-7? he mustve lost height.rob has him perfect for me.6-5 tops for on tim.
Danimal says on 11/Feb/08

If he said himself that he is 6'4 1/2 let's leave it at that. Why would he lie about his height?

Are you serious? He is an ACTOR. Hence, he needs to get roles. When someone is TOO tall, they don't get as many roles. SO, they downplay their own height, as much as SHORTER actors upplay their heights, for the same reasons. I though this would be obvious. NO way was he only 6'4.5"-6'5" in his younger days. He has said 6'7" in the past and this was to a fellow actor (not made public by Tim himself). I believe that he was damn close to that height 15-20 years ago.
Korben says on 11/Feb/08
I dont get it, every other time I see him he screams 6'5 min. But on these pics he looks as tall as Seagal. Glenn how tall did he look to you.
Anonymous says on 27/Jan/08
I'd say at least 6'5''. With the claims of some people that he is even taller who knows? I suppose it is possible that he knocked down his height to avoid being seen as a 'freak' when going for parts early in his career.
Alex V. says on 23/Jan/08
For me, as i said before, somewhere between 6'4 1/2 and 6'5 (1m95), i can't see Tim being more than that. I also think that Fry is the same height.

Really a strange cast for Top Gun. You barely see at all in the entire movie, but he is visible in the hero's welcome scene near the end - so I wonder: how tall is an F-14 aviator allowed to be?
chris175 says on 17/Jan/08
has to be 6-5 or even 6-6 in shawshank, towers over 6-2.5 freeman
Viper says on 7/Jan/08
Im watching him right now live on CNN standing behind 5-10-5-11 John Edwards, and he looks 6-6.
Reder says on 3/Jan/08
In Nothing to Loose Robbins looked like a giant. Also 6'5" is to short for him. He could look 6'5.5" or even 6'6" in height.
Maka says on 2/Jan/08
What he has said doesn't matter. He looks 6'6" to me. I wonder why there is no source where he is listed as 6'6".
Danimal says on 30/Dec/07
An actor that worked with him in The Player was on a talk show and told the interviewer that Robbins told him that he was 6'7" when asked. I always believed that to be true.
supes78 says on 30/Dec/07
I think he is easily 6'5" as well. I think he downgrades himself on occasion for whatever reason.
Antin says on 30/Dec/07
In The Shawshank Redemption he looks 6'6-6'6.5 next to other tall actors
Bad Radio says on 8/Dec/07
yeah definitely 6'5 to 6'6. Need to upgrade him.
steve says on 4/Dec/07
i met tim robbins like a week ago and i would easily put him at a 6'5 i was with my friend who is 6'4 and he was the same height but he slouches so he was atleast a inch taller maybe a inch and a half
Gonzalo says on 21/Nov/07
Interesting comments, Kenneth. 1,95-96 is what Tim looks to me
kenneth says on 17/Nov/07
in my opinion pics with gonzalo below shows:

1. everyone knows philip noyce have a bad hunches bad standing posture so that makes him lose about 2cm and looks 192ish, but pic of tim beside noyce makes tim a 198ish unless noyce stand straight up to gain back his 194cm height so tim robbins is at least 196cm tall instead of 194cm..


2.188clive owen stands abit lean down and looks slightly taller than tim robbins eye brown,makes tim looks 197cm tall..

3. 6ft3 will ferrell looks 4cm shorter than tim robbins while ferell stand a good posture but fro tim not so good one.. to say that if tim straight up a pose, he were looks 197cm tall, but the fact for ferell is his under 190cm barefoot he is 189ish and so (189 + 6 = 195cm) thats tim robbins height..

tim robbins is a solid 195CM tall old dude!!
Danimal says on 16/Nov/07
An unknown co-star of Tim's once appeared on Conan Obrien back in 1994 and said that Tim told him he was 6'7". He always looked taller than 6'5" to me.
glenn says on 14/Nov/07
christine-it could be worse.i see women your height all the time and its more excepted for a woman to be short.not for a man.i never see men shoter than 5-4.on rare occasion as low as 5-2.the shortest ive ever seen was danny devito at 4-8 to 4-10.not sure what he is.im not inclding actual midgets or dwarfs.thats different.
J-Dog says on 8/Nov/07
After seeing him before and rethinking about it, based on the fact that I work with a 6'6" guy who looks about the same to me as Tim did from a distance. The thing is at 6'1.75" by mid-day. I had to draw comparisons as I thought 6'6" would completely tower over me in the past, but it doesn't quite. With that in mind Tim may be around the 6'5.5" mark in the morning or taller, tough to be completely accurate of course.
Markus Zorin says on 3/Nov/07
Clive Owen is 188cm according to celebheights. Robbins looks a good 7 cm taller, around 195 in my opinion.
Gonzalo says on 18/Oct/07

Marcelo C. says on 5/Oct/07
Absolutely agree about 6ī4" or 5" (itīs the same). Always the tallest in the scenes. Congratulations for you, Glenn !!!!! If compared to Tim, you look 1" or 2" more. May be you stand straight and with good posture.
glenn says on 3/Oct/07
casual shoes on top.boots with no heel on bottom.that was the event i was at.the zodiac pic with jake.
Korben says on 2/Oct/07
Another way to judge his height is by looking where his mouth comes at the top of glenns head, saying glenn in the bottom photo is 175cm tall or so (do you remember your shoes glenn?). Im 6'4" and in normal dress shoes (an inch or so), my mouth comes to about 173cm, so judging that our heads are about the same size, it says robbins is around 195cm, which is very belivable. Hes definatly taller then 6'4" as hes said in interviews, and looks it.

Big guy Robbins, very big
Anonymous says on 25/Sep/07
I met him in person one time and wouldn't be suprised if he was 6'6 I'm 6'1 and he towered over me I think when you're as tall as him in hollywood you want to round down as much as possible or you will start getting clumped into "tall guy roles"
dmeyer says on 19/Sep/07
i think tim is 6'5.25 to 6'5.5 but rounds down
Gonzalo says on 11/Sep/07
He had more than an inch over Clancy Brown, the prison guard. At least two inches
thelondonman2 says on 10/Sep/07
He is not 6 feet 4 and a half inches. Hes about 6'6 legit
cantstop25 says on 7/Sep/07
im gonna have to disagree with you there james, he towered over that big prison guard who was said to actually be a legit 6'3"
Alex V. says on 1/Sep/07
My guess is at least five inches.
Adam Brennon says on 31/Aug/07
Many inches taller does person A have to be than peron B in order to tower over them?
Korben says on 30/Aug/07
I think its safe to say a true 6'5 in the morning and 6'4-6'4.5 in the afternoon, hes even mentioned 6'5 before in interviews.
Adam Brennon says on 28/Aug/07
Kevin Bacon (5' 10") and Laurence Fishbourne (6' 0") look like Tim Robbin's children being walked to school by him in one scene in Mystic River.
J-Dog says on 15/Aug/07
I saw him today as he stopped by the store I work at in Soho, looked 6'4.5" - 6'5" he was with his son and his soon is also tall looked around 6'3". Tim is also a big broad guy which I think makes him look even taller on many occasions. To me he seemed more 6'5"ish.

I didn't get as close to him as I got to Tom Hanks when he walked right by about 2 feet away from me.
JanJ says on 30/Jul/07
He looked about 6'5-6'6 in shawshank
Croat says on 9/Jul/07
Very close to 6'5''.
Gonzalo says on 27/Jun/07
I agree with you Anonymous in the first pic. But I donīt in the second one. Glenn is closer to the camera and Robbins isnīt standing straight
Anonymous says on 26/Jun/07
Robbins looks exactly 6'3" in the top picture with Glenn and 6'3 1/2" in the bottom picture with Glen. However, I firmly believe that without shoes Mr. Robbins is his stated 6'4 1/2"
Alex V. says on 14/Jun/07
Ok 5'11.5 guy, I misunderstood...
5'11.5 guy says on 13/Jun/07
Alex, I never said he WAS two inches taller. I said "in one pic" he "looks" two inches taller. I don't believe Tim is actually 6'6.
Alex V. says on 12/Jun/07
Yeah, 1m95 (between 6'4.5 and 6'5) for Robbins seems correct...
Alex V. says on 11/Jun/07
Not a chance 5'11.5 guy, Tim is close to 6'5" (He said that he is "6-feet, 5-inches on a good day") , and if you check other pictures from Tim with Philip Noyce you will see that Robbins is just a bit taller than 6'4.25" Noyce. (For me Tim is close to 1m95 (similar to Craig Kilborn) and Noyce 1m93-1m94)
5'11.5 guy says on 10/Jun/07
In one pic I've seen, Robbins looks 2' taller than 6'4 Philip Noyce.
Craiger says on 4/Jun/07
he looks even tallrr then 6'5" in the movies, sometimes he can come acros as being 6'8" guy! but that is probably becasue he normally works with shorter actors/actresses, nevertheless I think he is a legit 6'5"
BigBen says on 1/Jun/07
One of my favourite tall guys. He is a brilliant actor. maybe 6'5 in his young days
Arjun says on 1/Jun/07
I agree Alex, Robbins only looks 6'3.5" - 6'4" max in the bottom picture, but as editor Rob says, it seems as though Glenn is slightly in front, given the position of their shoulders.
Alex says on 24/May/07
Robbins looks 6'4 in the bottom picture with Glenn.

[Editor Rob: sometimes its harder to decipher, but it wouldn't shock me if glenn was a little closer in both photos.]
Puqqo says on 14/May/07
Tim is only 6'4" to 6'5"??? He looked like a giant in Nothing to loose.
Korben says on 11/May/07
huge dude, looks 6'5 in those pics, considering his mouth is at the top of your head, and with say steven segal or neeson its a bit below
TheJerk says on 10/Apr/07
Im gonna start calling you gleen now apparently its the thing to do.
TheJerk says on 10/Apr/07
Well, he did say he had a temper so you cant expect him to be overly friendly Glenn. He can look 6-5 in the famous 94' movie especially so.
Gonzalo says on 16/Mar/07
Duncan`s character in The Green Mile was supposed to be around 7 feet and he was shot to look that height. Movies can be decieving. Hollywood is the land of make-believe.
By the way, Morse looked so tall in that movie. At least 4 inches, maybe five. That would make him 6`4 minimum
Anonymous says on 15/Mar/07
Ok Viper, it's true. But for instance, Vincent D'onofrio is a big dude (almost 6'4") but in the pic with Gleen, he looks much shorter than that (give a look), now confront the pic of Vincent with the 1st pic of Pete Steele... The difference between D'onofrio and Stelle isn't that much, 2.5 inches (+- 6.5 cm) max.. Duncan in "The Green Mile" looks much taller than David Morse however is not more than one inch.... some photos can be deceiving. Good idea from Rob & company put more than one pic. (Alright Gleen...)
glenn says on 15/Mar/07
who says i dont have more pics of me and joey? its a matter of finding them is the tough part.
Viper says on 15/Mar/07
Alex, Pete is slouching big time in that 2nd picture still.
Alex V. says on 14/Mar/07
Another good example is Gleen with Pete Steele from Type O, in the first pic of them, Pete looks like a 6'9" guy, in the second one, Pete is to me, a bit more than 6'6".
Alex V. says on 14/Mar/07
Yeah Danimal you're right, one photo is not enough to judge someone's height. In this last pic of Gleen-Robbins, Tim is not supposed to be, more than 6'5" (i think Cromwell with 6'5" "too", is a bit taller). Sadly, Gleen canīt make a second photo with Joey Ramone...
Danimal says on 13/Mar/07
What about the The Ramones guy. He looks as tall as Novoselic does next to Glenn.
glenn says on 13/Mar/07
yes,you have a point alex v.
Anthony says on 13/Mar/07
Alex, Krist is standing bolt upright in Glenn's pic with him, but in the pic Glenn has with Brad, Brad is slouching big time. If Garrett were standing up straight he'd be taller than Krist for sure.
Alex V. says on 13/Mar/07
Ok Gleen, but you have to admit that Novoselic seems extremely tall in that pic of yours, more than you with Brad Garrett. And I know either that photos can be deceiving but he looks like a giant tower.
glenn says on 13/Mar/07
i dont know what the fuss or mystery is about,krist is 6-7.period.tim is 6-5.period.
