Liv Tyler is at least 5'10" if not taller and I think it was quite clear that Mortensen was only just about as tall as she was. IMO, he's a solid 5'10". In any shot where he looks taller than she does, you can bet it's a far away shot where it's not Tyler, or a close-up where they gave him something to stand on - particularly referring to the shot on the bridge in Rivendell she looks UP at him through her eyelashes from below about three inches. NO - WAY. She is a BIG GIRL and he is an average height guy.

Agreed, Viper. Viper says on 12/Jul/10
Looked 5'11 in a History of Violence SAK says on 11/Jul/10
I actually think Viggo looks taller then he is. He appears a 5ft11/181cm frame, but this listing is correct for him. Aleks says on 10/Jul/10
Viggo looks slightly over average, yet, not tall. 5' 10" or 5' 10.5" that is. paul86 says on 7/Jul/10
I love it people give these 3/4 of an inch. Just give him a full 5'11' rob ^_^ Ross says on 5/Jun/10
In Lord of the Rings: Return of the King he appears no more than 2 inches shorter than 6'2 Hugo Weaving. He also looks to be an inch shorter than 6'1 Karl Urban. I would peg him at a strong 6'. Maybe 182 but no shorter. Heightcritique says on 21/Apr/10
Anonymous: If you want to engage in dialogue or debate with me why don't you proove with evidence that Tyler is 5'9" instead of posting empty claims. Anonymous says on 6/Apr/10

In 'The Two Towers' when Tyler gives Viggo her Elven Medallion, it shows in a whole body shot that Mortensen is at least an inch taller, so if Tyler is 5'10", Viggo has to be at least 5'11". Also, if you google for photographs of Viggo and Urban (the horsermaster at 6'2") one can see clearly that there is a 2" difference in height. Thus Viggo is at least 5'11" barefoot.
WHAT IF LIV TYLER ISN'T ACTUALLY 5'10 BUT 5'9? SFO says on 29/Mar/10
I went to high school with Viggo in Watertown,NY & he was no taller than I was which was 5'9". A few years ago my daughter spoke to him at the local airport and she said he was her height which is the same as mine. Heightcritique says on 5/Feb/10
TJ: the linked I posted did not upload correctly, try this clip and stop at frame 1:48 to compare Viggo with 5'11" Eduardo Noriega Click Here Heightcritique says on 18/Jan/10
TJ: The movie 'La Pistola de Mi Hermano ('My Brother's Gun') is difficult to find in DVD. A Spanish friend told me about it and my local video club only had it in VHS. A young Viggo is shown in various scenes in this movie in whole body shots which shows his frame at peak height not to be less than 5'11"
He made another movie in Spain which I enjoyed called 'Alatriste.' Viggo stands at the same height of his co-star 5'11" Eduardo Noriega (wearing the blue shirt) Click Here Dr. Steve Brule says on 16/Jan/10
next to 5ft 10 Charlize Theron Click Here Rika says on 16/Jan/10
Hmmm i see him closer to 5'10 than 6'0. 5'11 MAX.
A really average guy. T.J says on 15/Jan/10
Heightcritique, can you post more evidence in justifying your claim, please? Thanks. Heightcritique says on 8/Jan/10
Anonymous: I estimate Bean height at 5'11" and Viggo at 6' in shoes. The heights listed in this website as far as I know are barefoot estimates. If you have a chance to watch the movie "My Brother's Pistols" you'll see Viggo in his peak height which I gauge to be no less than 5'11" (barefoot). Anonymous says on 7/Jan/10
@ Heightcritique
He really doesn't look 6ft in that photo if Bean is 5'10 - 5'11 at most in that PK says on 30/Dec/09
180 cm is a great estimate. Heightcritique says on 29/Dec/09
Mikkel: I agree that Viggo is at least the average height in Denmark which is 180 cms (5'11"), and 6' in shoes. He looks 6' next to 5'10" Sean Bean: Click Here Mikkel says on 15/Dec/09
Viggo Mortensen is Danish, you guys, hence the name(s) which are typical for Denmark. And we are quite tall. My wife is 6 ft, and believe Viggo to be at least that. I do not think less will be his fate.. RisingForce says on 7/Dec/09
He's 5'11" if you ask me. This listing is fine as well, virtually the same thing. RJ says on 28/Nov/09
I met him a few years back and I am 5'11 and he was shorter them me. JLC says on 23/Nov/09
Paul, same here I saw it yesterday, I thought he was 6ft range. Paul says on 19/Nov/09
I'm surprised. Just watched Eastern Promises - they gave the illusion that he was quite big. Heightcritique says on 28/Sep/09
Horse of FUNK: you are correct, Urban is listed at 6'1" here. I saw him listed in another site at 6'2" but I think that is incorrect. 6'1" explains the small height difference between him and Viggo. The Horse of FUNK says on 12/Sep/09
Since when is Karl Urban 6'2"? If anything, Karl Urban is more like 6'.07" - 6'1", a 185cm fellow. Heightcritique says on 1/Sep/09

hm.. that's strange because in LOTR, he's shorter than Orlando Bloom (both wearing flat boots) but you guys have Orlando Bloom listed at 5'10.5"... hmm BB says on 23/Jul/09
In 'The Two Towers', theres one scene with him and Liv Tyler, not wholly visible but a shot of their heads together clearly shows them to be equal in height. 5'10"-5'10.5" and no more. Frank2 says on 15/Jun/09
He was the same height as Michael Douglas in A PERFECT MURDER. Anonymous says on 6/Jun/09
I watched 'A History of Violence' (great film) Viggo co-stared with Ed Harris (5'9") but they never really stood side by side so I couldn't make a comparison but Mortensen generally looks a like a 'taller side of average' guy. I'd estimate 5' 10.5" - 5' 11" but he definately isn't six foot. MHouillon says on 4/Jun/09
Yeah, Viggo is a clear 5'10.
One inch shorter than 5'11 Jason Isaacs. carol says on 1/May/09
5-10 for Viggo. He sometimes wears lifts and most of the times at premiers. Then you meet him at the beach and hes a bit shorter. 5.11 with shoes so i guess hes 5-10 barefoot. Dann says on 11/Apr/09
on this pic he looks about 5'10, Jason is 5 ' 11 Click Here |
