Vin Diesel Height
Vin Diesel height: 5 ft 11.75 in (182 cm)

US ex-bouncer, gravel-voiced, dungeon and dragons addict from Pitch Black and Riddick. Has been described as tall as "6ft 4ins". He has claimed "I'm 6ft 1" on a radio show, but I mean do you see the big heeled boots he's always wearing?

Walker is tall. Probably 6'2 and change. Vin is a solid 181-182 CM.
Lmeister says on 11/Nov/09
In Knockaround guys he is wearing thick worker boots and he isn't 3-4 inches taller than Barry Pepper in that movie. Nice pic of Vin and Paul Walker Click Here
I bet Vin is not a full 6 footer. I'd bet on 5ft11ish morning height -> 5ft10.5 listing at CelebHeights ;)
Hugh 191cm says on 9/Nov/09
No he looks 186-187cm beside Garrett due to the boots.
Hugh 191cm says on 9/Nov/09
Looks all of 6ft1 in Knockaround guys! I'm serious, he has about 3 if not 4 inches over 5ft10 Barry Pepper
Brad says on 7/Nov/09
Yer off by an inch, he's 5' 10" and wears monsters. G said he was 6 feet, file under Willis & Sly, discard. Vin is wearing gigantic monsters with Walker and the classic Vin effect with head tilt. Vin knows he's not 6' so he wears stuff that is Priestley-ish plus tread. You can imagine G getting burnt by Vin by 4" with Vin the winner vs. Portmans by a 1/2".
Roni says on 6/Nov/09
I met Vin about 5years ago, he stood right beside me and looked down my top (cheeky!) I'm 5ft 5inch and had on heels that added about 2inches. i'd say he's 5ft 10inch no bigger. He didn't have those big chunky boots on, perhaps thats the difference.
RisingForce says on 3/Nov/09
If you don't mind me asking, Horse of Funk, why would you have thought I was on drugs because of my estimate for Vin? 5'11"-5'11.5" range seems reasonable. I use to have him at 6'.

And yeah something doesn't add up with Vin and Walker. Look at this picture! Click Here
The Horse of FUNK says on 2/Nov/09
I'll be damned... I thought RisingForce was on drugs at first, but if you go to Vin's page at i-m-d-b and look at the new photos of him next to Paul Walker in the Fast and Furious photos you'll see Walker is easily 3-3.5 inches over Vin, even with Vin in his munsters. They're all standing in full-body shots, too. So, either Walker is taller than people suspect or something else isn't adding up here with Vin.
Nick says on 31/Oct/09
Looks a solid 180 cm to me
Alex2401 says on 21/Oct/09
Looking no more than 180cm next to Brad Garrett.His barely up to his shoulder.
Hugh 191cm says on 10/Oct/09
Looking 185-186cm next to brad garrett. Definately an enhancement
Brad says on 5/Oct/09
He wears monster boots for a reason: he wants to be 6'+
Hugh 191cm says on 4/Oct/09
Looked at least 6ft in Riddick though.
Lenad says on 3/Oct/09
Yeah 6ft4 in damn big boots. barefoot hes 6ft0 at best
Peakey says on 2/Oct/09
Watch the first 3 minutes of Strays, if Vin is 6ft the guy he knocks into must be 7ft, I would say 5' 8" MAX.
imoen-mania says on 27/Sep/09
Wait... Isn't that guy Sarevok Anchev? Last time I've seen him, Sarevok was about 6' 10", 6' 11"... he literally dwarved my big boy paladin brother/boyfriend Abdel who's like 6' 2", when he used to travel in our party. Damn, he was even taller than Minsc.

I still think he's a bit of a jerk though, despite that he atoned for his past sins after he got his alignment changed from Chaotic Evil to Chaotic Good. Still, he sacrificed himself to save Abdel from Mellissan's Slayer Shadows in the end... Oh well.
Hugh 191cm says on 26/Sep/09
187-188cm in his army boots and 182-183cm barefoot. PERFECT!
miko says on 23/Sep/09
Vin is around 5"11 flat.

Walker is a very weak 6"2.

Put him barefoot next to Walker and Vin would break down in tears.
burby says on 22/Sep/09
There isn't 2" between the two. Look at Vin next to Bloomberg. 5'10.5"-weak 5'11" fits.
Brad says on 21/Sep/09
Hey PW has on my Vegas outfit, Armani and the non tucked in white shirt n jeans. He's 6' 3" in dress shoes, VD has on his 3" custom monsters. 2" between the two. You see it in time & time with them. 3 to the uno. 2 spread. G said 6'. Mahaha, file under Willis.
Rob G says on 20/Sep/09
I think solid 5'11" without his customs, weak 6'0" is a bit to high IMO.
Ennio 6ft says on 20/Sep/09
Look this pic from facebook: Click Here
Vin looks 5'11 and 5'5 Michelle Rodriguez
RisingForce says on 14/Sep/09
Ok, Brad, lets say he's 5'10" and in 3" customs. That'd make him 6'1" in footwear. Paul Walker is supposedly 6'2" so he'd be atleast 6'3" in dress shoes. Do you see 2 inches between them here? Click Here Click Here

I'm not even sure I see an inch between them there. By the way, Vin has now added the Stallone effect to his repertoire. Click Here Click Here

The third picture in this post leaves no doubt in my mind that he wears lifts. Look at how unnatural his height looks. He reminds me of Stallone there. Also the fact that he can look shorter than his supposed 5'10" girlfriend when he's in dress shoes and he's in heels, but then look nearly as tall as a 6'2" man in dress shoes is damn good evidence that he wears lifts.

To me, Vin is a more obvious lift wearer than Brad Pitt which is why I don't know why more people doubt Vin wears lifts. But back to his height, he simply isn't under 5'11". I'll live with 5'11" for him, even though my estimate is 5'11.5". He'd need to be a solid 5'11" to pull off looking like a legit 6'1.5" with Walker. And that's back to back in a full body shot with no tip toes.
Brad says on 12/Sep/09
5' 10". 3" customs. G says on 1/25/09 he's never under 5' 7". I think I said he was full of crap and it was deleted.
SoLLoS says on 7/Sep/09
1.) I'm a legit 183 cm tall guy (barefoot) and in my normal shoes I'm ~185 cm ;

2.) I was standing next to Vin Diesel when he was using his army boots and I was still ~1-2 cm taller then him ;

3.) His boots gave him ~5 cm in height ;

=> Vin Diesel is ~178 cm maximum barefoot.
RisingForce says on 5/Sep/09
As low as 5'11" is possible. I stick to 5'11.5" though, he looked to be reaching 6'2.5" in his boots back to back next to Paul Walker. But he was defintley shorter than his supposed 5'10" girlfriend who was wearing heels and Vin for once was wearing dress shoes.

No less than 5'11", but Rob's listing here is the most Vin could be.
Kyle says on 1/Sep/09
I'd say he's 5'11" whenever he was on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno he looked about the same height as Jay when he wasn't wearing boots.
anonymous says on 30/Aug/09
one way to get a some what accurate idea of Vin Diesels hieght is to get an accurate height of his co-star in Babylon AD. In one scence they are both without shoes standing right outside the shower. Vin appears to have 5 to 7 inches on her....quite a bit taller.
Rika says on 25/Aug/09
He looks alittle to small to be 6ft. 5'10 min 5'11 max.
Ennio 6ft says on 12/Aug/09
Vin looks 6ft, my same height.
burby says on 12/Aug/09
As long as normal dress shoes were involved, 5'10.5" - weak 5'11" for Vin vs Deniro, who actually looked 5'8" still compared to 5'6" Bloomberg.
Paco 6 ft 3 in says on 10/Aug/09
I thought he was 6'0''???
sSsS says on 9/Aug/09
Yeah, I guess 5'11.7" is about right. Vin isn't a super tall guy, but he is above average, I'm sure.
G-MANN says on 7/Aug/09
Why would someone as muscular and tough-looking as him worry about not quite being over 6 foot? Being 6'1" or so really isn't a big deal.
tx240z says on 3/Aug/09
If you look at the fast and furious shots, either the 'promo' style shot or the shot next to the car... you'll see walker is wearing cowboy boots, not 'normal shoes'. Maybe it occured to me just becuase I'm Texan and I wondered what kinda cowboy boots he was wearing before I read all the comments here.
RisingForce says on 3/Aug/09
5'11.5" without his Frankenstein boots.
maximus says on 2/Aug/09
shoes can really add a lot of height. I am around 5'10 1/4" tall....in other words a little over 5'10....actual doctor measurment without shoes. I recently bought some skechers steel toe shoes called descender. They look pretty much like regular sneakers(brown color)with the exception of having steel toes. Well, my height with these shoes is a little over 6'...6'1/8 to 6'1/4"...so in other words I gain an easy 2"!!.....I noticed it right away when i went to work and stood up against other people...I kinda liked it..lol!!My point is that these shoes are not special made for height but add an easy 2" to my height....with that in mind I can now see that it would be very easy to add 3" to 3 1/2" with special made shoes....that would put me at a little over 6'1"....so it would be very, very, very easy for someone like Vin or brad pitt to appear much taller than their actual height.
maximus says on 28/Jul/09
someone needs to call him out!!!!!!!!...A talk shoe host need to bring a measuring tape to the show and have him step out of his shoes...hmmm..that would be interesting to see his reaction....I'm guessing 5'10" to 5'11"...but maybe he would surprise us with 6'....
JD says on 27/Jul/09
big intimidating dude, but not taller than 6' (though he can look it). i'll go anywhere from 5'11 to 6', but who knows how short he is without those giant boots?
Mac says on 26/Jul/09
When you look at the Ross video, Vin is standing straight and Ross is bent over (to shake his hand at beginning). I think their shoes are the same here. At that point Ross looks 2" taller. So if Ross was standing straight next to Vin I would say a 3" to 4" difference. After reading every post and all the photos. I think Vin is a minimum of 5' 10" and maybe 5' 11". Although I would not be shocked if in bare feet he was 5' 9". The photo of the cast of furious, link on this page is very telling!

Also to answer one post here. I think we anaylse Vin's height because its a mystery and we are trying to work it out. His height is interesting, so as to get to know more about him. Its not to judge him.
Danny says on 25/Jul/09
People would like Vin to be kinda short cause alot of folk seem to really dislike him for some reason, but the truth is he's pretty much 6ft solid, 6ft 1+ with boots/shoes on. I'd accept 5ft 11 minimum, there is now way he's any less than that wether you want him to be or not.
Arian says on 25/Jul/09
Hey, I read all of your comments! And some people said he was 5.7 or less and that's just ridicilous! On Friday Night with Jonathan Ross who is 187 cm/6ft 1.5inch Vin looks at most 4cm/1.5inch shorter. And they are both wearing the same kind of shoes. And somebody said he had stuffing in them to make him taller. He IS 180cm/5.11ft minimum and 183cm/6ft maximum. Click Here Skip the begining and watch where he walks into the room and stands next to Ross.
Hugh 191cm says on 24/Jul/09
6ft out of bed.
Anonymous says on 22/Jul/09
5-11 without shoes 6-0 with shoes
maximus says on 22/Jul/09
Interesting that some people claim Paul Walker is 6'3" in person....If he is a legit 6'3"..which is very possible...then maybe Vin Disel is 5'11 1/2...maybe its Paul Walker who is actually taller than 6'2" and maybe thats the reason Vin looks shorter by at least 3"....
maximus says on 22/Jul/09
5'8".....I dont know about that....he doesnt come across as being that short.....5'10" minimum...no less than that. Camera angle doesnt seem to help Tom Cruise to much..or Dustin Hoffman...Al Pacino..etc...and they all definetly appear shorter than Vin Disel...I mean look at his arms in Pitch black....Chronicles of Riddick....he does not have the arm lenght of a guy 5'8"
bubble burster says on 22/Jul/09
I've got a friend in L.A. who worked on Jimmy Kimmel Live as an intern and said she couldn't believe how short Vin is when she met him at the show. Wearing boots he didn't make it eye to eye with her - she is 5'7" and usually wears heels so I'm not putting him an inch over 5'7". Sorry Vin fans, but you have to realize that most actors aren't nearly as big as they look on screen (camera angles can make Tom Cruise look big, even though he's a midget).
maximus says on 22/Jul/09
I think an accurate and realistic height is 5'11"...no more than that.....If someone is 6'1 or 6'2....they would probably not wear monster shoes. Even at 5'11" which is not short considering 6' with shoes on they really dont need monster shoes........Vin just needs to chill and accept his height...c'mon...your above average Vin.....and you dont look short with regular shoes.....6' is not short!!!!!!!!!!
RisingForce says on 21/Jul/09
Vin isn't 5'10". He's likely 5'11.5", but no taller.
maximus says on 21/Jul/09
I saw saving private Ryan and vin did appear shorter than Tom Hanks...and Tom Hanks is at the most 6'....some say he is 5'11"....so I'm not sure what to think anymore....could Vin really be 5'10"....its possible.
bam says on 13/Jul/09
thats amazing he's 3 inches shorter in one pic, and virtually the same height in another.
Original says on 8/Jul/09
He's in my opinion 5'11.25/5'11.5"
mastadon says on 5/Jul/09
i wud say hes 5'11 dead on,6'1 wid his crazy boots on!
Josh.J says on 23/Jun/09
i used to think he was a solid 6ft. now it seems more and more likely he's 5'11. he never appears in public without the thick boots and im suspicious that they might have wedges. next to 6'2 paul walker, he looks 6'1 at best. remove the heels and you're looking at 5'11. this guy reminds me of how brad pitt appears in public and they're probably the same height.
Brad says on 23/Jun/09
Glenn said 6' which is a joke. Alex2401 is correct. 2" visible, 1" wedged.
Lmeister says on 23/Jun/09
Alex2401 you seem to forget that other people wear shoes too. I mean normally mens shoes are around one inch thick. Actually to appear 6ft1 a 5ft10 man should have 2" heels and 2" insoles. I think that Vin is around 5ft11 not as low as 5ft10.
Alex2401 says on 22/Jun/09
Many people don't understand,Vin 5'10=178cm + 2" boots heel + 1" inside of the boots
= Vin 6'1=185cm.
It is that simple...
Brad says on 20/Jun/09
Big wedge inside heeled boots. He just can't appear short to Walker, it bothers him.
Doug says on 20/Jun/09
5'10" is too low for Vin. He is mimimum 5'11". 5'11.5" is about right, often appears around 6'2" in lifts. This guy must be the shortest man ever to to be listed at 6'4" or 6'5" though!!
RisingForce says on 20/Jun/09
dmeyer, look at how unusually tall he looks in the back to back pictures with Paul Walker. I'm pretty sure he wears lifts.
Clay says on 19/Jun/09
175 CM for Vin Diesel you cant be serious...
dmeyer says on 19/Jun/09
if is boots are big it is because he wears no lifts in them , if that was the case he would wear normal boots with lifts
Boxing Fighter says on 16/Jun/09
I agree with Miko and Rising Force. He is probably a weak 5ft11, but never a 5f10 guy. Because, unless you are using some ridiculous female high heels, a 5ft10 man will never look like a 6ft2 person. It would look too unnatural and this was never the case here.
The shoes always looked massive, but the guy looks normal.
If Vin is trully 5ft10 he would often look as 5ft9 because sometimes he would relax and this would make him look smaller. But again this is not the case. In fact sometimes is easy to say he is 6ft, with boots. You have to take in account the hole history of pictures. I use this criteria to judge everyone. This is not an exact science, this is guessing based on chaotic photos.
jeajeajea says on 12/Jun/09
Hm i found this page and all dates seemed correct to me.. but Vin Diesel is NEVER 182cm... maybe 175 but never 182, never
gilipollas says on 9/Jun/09
word, those "biggesr boots ever" would make him a 6-2 guy in shoes...and hes clearly not. hes 6 feet with those big boots shoes whatever ON.
word says on 8/Jun/09
i think the dudes 6'0 but just wears the biggest boots ever
miko says on 8/Jun/09
A weak 5"11 at best.

In his 3" monsters he can look well over 6"0.
Brad says on 8/Jun/09
He's never been over 5' 10" in his life. Glenn said he was 6'. That would make him 6' 3" in his custom whopper boots. That's real sick.
Hugh 190cm says on 5/Jun/09
5ft11.75 is spot on.
RisingForce says on 30/May/09
Entertainment Weekly described Vin as "a short man with lifts in his boots". Click Here

Then again The Los Angeles Times described him as "Vin Diesel, a tall, New York-based actor". Click Here

I think both are half right. Vin is a tallish man who wears lifts in his boots.
RisingForce says on 29/May/09
I think 5'11.5" is perfect for Vin. He can look shorter, but in massive boots he can look within a half inch of 6'2" Paul Walker's height.
Cmomo says on 25/May/09
I shook hands with him a few years ago in London (pure chance meeting in the Ben Sherman suit shop) and hes definatley not 6 foot! Im 6'2.5 barefoot (im the guy in the pic with Dara O'Briain) and I was wayyyy bigger then Mr Diesel. Id say 5'10 would be fair 5'11 being generous! His eyeline was level my mouth/nose.
Alex2401 says on 18/May/09
Yes,i think Brad Garrett had 10"(25cm)on Vin.
anonymous says on 18/May/09
5 foot 11.
Lucid says on 16/May/09
Vin Diesel is about 5'10. I was part of his secuirty detail one night so this is legit.
Yousuf 6'1" says on 15/May/09
I'll give this a perfect 5'11". Paul Walker next to him walking in fast and the furious there's an inch or lil more, but thats with his huge 2 - 2.5inch boots.
RisingForce says on 13/May/09
you're forgetting that vin probably has something inside those boots ian.
Brad says on 10/May/09
I love his comment that he's 6' 1". Put on the clown boots and he's 6' 4.5". Vin is a classic liar. He's 5' 10" and wears massive boots everywhere. Everybody laughs at those things much like Downey Jr.'s elevator sneakers and stripper heels.
Doug says on 9/May/09
I agree Rising this is a 5'11.5" guy wearing lifts/huge boots to get to his desired 6'2". Walker in my view is a strong 6'2" more like 6'2.5 barefoot.
Doug says on 9/May/09

TNTinCA says on 9/May/09
Good set of pics there, RisingForce.

Check out the heel on those boots. It's MASSIVE.
RisingForce says on 8/May/09
sure bobo, he never looks 6 feet, even in clown shoes? tell that to 6-2ish paul walker Click Here Click Here

look at those pictures. that's as ideal as you'll get. full body shot, good angle back to back ect. walker would measure around 6-3 in dress shoes, meaning vin in his big boots could almost measure 6-3. vin at 5-11.5 + 3 inch boots/lifts = 6-2.5. makes sense there.
Anonymous says on 7/May/09
Maybe 183-184cm in the morning.
gilipollas says on 4/May/09
5-10 for Vin. He's known for wearing all kind of big sole shoes and even tho he looks like a 6 feet guy to me with those shoes on. Roids, tricky shoes etc make superstars look different form regular people. I mean, u can have talent for acting but its very strange to have the whole pack even physically.
bobo says on 3/May/09
The guy never looks over 6 feet even with his clown shoes.

5. 10 is more realistic. The Clown shoes take him to 6 foot but thats as far as he gets. The personal sightings, the psychological evidence, the shoe evidence all point to 5 10.

5.11.75 is a bit sad. Why not say just say 6 foot? If he was this high he would not wear his silly shoes AND he would LOOK that high on camera. He doesn't. He aint. Deal with it.
Doug says on 3/May/09
Yup Rob has him about right now, you can see in the Paul Walker pictures he is not quite the full 6'. He is 182 cm and wears huge boots to regularly look 6'1" or 6'2". He is a decent height but you can just tell the guy wishes he was a solid 6'2" legit. BTW below what world are people living in if they consider 5'11" short. If you are 6'5" maybe. A lot of people comment on this site as if they are all 6'5". Get a grip on reality people.
Anonymous says on 1/May/09
bobo,

read carefully, my opinion on Vin's barefoot height is a solid 5'11, now lets just take that and break it down for a second, a sold 5'11 is someone who is no less than that by any circumstances, meaning he's most likely taller than that when he wakes and probably 5'11.5 through the day. He's a solid 5'11 imo but if I were to pin point his exact barefoot height I'd say yeah, he's most likely this height listed here or 5'11.5 to be exact, where is the confusion here? do you fallow me so far?

Now if you take him in regular shoes (watch Johnathan Ross interview on you tube) he looks to be just over the 6ft mark, IN REG SHOES. In his big boots, he looks to be 6'1 or a tad over. I am the exact same height as Vin listed here, with poor posture I can look 5'11, with good posture I can 'look' 6ft but in reality barefoot I would measure at 5'11.75. When I wake I'm 6'0 and by night about 5'11.25. If I were to say my height, I would say a solid 5'11 if being general but if someone said 'you look taller' or something along the lines of me feeling the need to answer more specifically I would say I'm 5'11.75 or just shy of 6'0. In regular shoes I'm just over the 6ft mark but in thicker heeled boots I'm 6'1


JTRoN says on 29/Apr/09
bobo,

He looks a solid 5'11 but if I were to try and pin point his barefoot height I would go with 5'11.75, he seems just shy of 6ft. in regular shoes he looks this height, possibly giving the impression of being a tad shorter if his posture isn't full

What don't you understand? I say he looks a solid 5'11 (read above for what solid means) thats my guess on photos and video, I never met the guy, I don't think he's anything under 5'11 or over 6ft so unless you met the guy your guess is as good as mine, and if I had to pick a more specific BAREFOOT height in that range, I would say 5'11.75 - 5'11.5

BOBO

1. read my post again, a few times if needed before you reply to me

2. do some research on the net or scroll down if you want pictures and videos, I've already posted a few.
bobo says on 1/May/09
JTron. I am now even more confused. Barefoot height you are saying 5.11.75 but he "looks a solid 5.11" which is why you state the shoe height as "just shy of 6 foot" which means his shoes are .25 inches thick. WTF ???????

He is 5 10. End of. All the physical and Psychological evidence points to this.

JTRON.

1. read your posts before posting.

2. Show me a pic with Diesel in NORMAL shoes.
Alex2401 says on 1/May/09
In XXX in the scene when Vin is walking next to Samuel on some field Vin looks
2' shorter.Whole movie he looks 2' shorter.On the pic Derek D posted he looks
exactly 5'10 and he is 5'10,some of you can say bad posture but it is not.
He is standing military straight and Paul is not closer to the camera.
I have studied his height for couple of years now and the answer i have is 5'10.
Strong 5'10,not 5'9 or something like that,but 177-178cm.
We all know that Stallone in his footwear looks same height like Willis,but
Willis is definitely 2' taller and everyone agree Stallone is 175cm and Willis
around 180-182cm,why is so hard to accept same thing for Vin??
Vin and Stallone are always in some strange footwear...

Vin Diesel is between 5'10.5 and 5'11. Imo, a weak 5'11. I am mostly basing my estimate on his pictures with Karl Urban. Even then he was wearing massive boots compared to the others.
bobo says on 28/Apr/09
Jaynie: So you met him and thought "that guy is 5.7" which is why you think he could be 5.11.

WTF? indeed
Namely says on 28/Apr/09
He looked all of the 6ft in Babylon AD. Especially against Jerome Le Banner and Melanie Thierry.
a bit taller than vin says on 28/Apr/09
@jaynie: wtf?? 5'11 isn't short if you ask me.
yoyo says on 25/Apr/09
5ft10 barefoot for him. would be no wrong for it. he looks 5ft11 with more advantage shoe lift beside 6ft2 Paul Walker.
Jaynie says on 24/Apr/09
I saw Vin Diesel in person. I was escorting at the Latin Billboards and I realized exactly how short he really is. I predicted 5'7, but 5'11 will do. I knew a guy that big can't possibly be tall.
bobo says on 24/Apr/09
anonymous and JTRoN. So he regularly looks 5. 11 and in some scenes where he is wearing big boots you will go with 5. 11 which is why you state his flat foot height as 5. 11.

I am soooo confused right now

This is celebheights.com NOT celebheightswithshoeson.com
anonymous says on 24/Apr/09
In fast and furious, he is slightly shorter than 1.8m gal gadot with heels on. I would say he is a solid 180cm. In some scenes he looks 5 foot 9 and others, he looks 5 foot 11. 5 foot 11 really solid.

Just saw Fast & Furious, he can look pretty tall in his boots but he just didn't com across as a genuine tall guy when you notice his boots in every scene, there actually quite ridiculously big at points where they look custom big apposed to a normal construction style boot. There was the odd scene where he looked close in height with Walker (whom which am starting to believe he's legit 6'2) but most of the time or in full body shots, Vin didn't hold up to him too well and came across as 5'10 - 5'11ish. I believe 5'11 is probably his lowest height he could be and is most likely his like listed here and possibly 5'11.5. Camera angles and smaller cast members were really catered to Vin Diesel making him look larger on film. His boots were so big that they made him look somewhat lanky and with long legs that weren't proportionate to his upper torso. This height seems pretty accurate when you compare him to Leno, Ross, Samuel and Walker.
Brad says on 21/Apr/09
This 5' 11.75" listing is ridiculous. Walker just owns him by 4"+ by the chicanos. Don't waste your time in movies, he's in big customs with clever camera work.
bobo says on 21/Apr/09
Derek D

I see the same difference in that picture. He looks like a 5 11 guy in that picture IN BOOTS. All those who think he is a 5 11 flat foot should have a look at that pic and ask themselves if they can see

1. HIs bare feet

2. Normal shoes

3. Munsters?

I can see Munsters. Lets be kind and say he is only getting 1. 5 lift. Thats put him squarely in the 5 10 and below range.

GIven that we have a flat foot height of 6 2 for Paul Walker (according to this months Mens Health) we can now ask ourselves....does that look like a 5 11 guy in that pic? Well, yes it does.

But can those people now estimate his height WITHOUT the clown shoes. Otherwise we may have to change to name of the site to celebheights but wearing whatever footwear they want.com
bobo says on 21/Apr/09
JOhn and Rising Force: which full length body scene does VD look taller than PW in fast and furious?

There is only one full legth scene and Vin is wearing his Munsters and PW wearing flats and Vin still looks 3 inches shorter. Given that PW has stated recently that he is 6 foot 2, and Diesel is a good 3 inches shorter when you see full length body shots (while wearing Munsters) the 5 10 max is looking far more likely. 5 11 is crazy. He never looks 6 foot even with his clown shoes. Never. Show me a pic where he looks a good 6 foot?
bam says on 21/Apr/09
that seems to be closer to a 4+ inch difference in that pic. Very weird.
john says on 21/Apr/09
throught fast and furious only lokks 1 inch shorter than walker
RisingForce says on 19/Apr/09
That was an idiotic post bobo. Vin does look over 6 feet in movies. Look at him next to Samuel L. Jackson in XXX. Vin can also easily look over 6 feet at premieres.

As far as the Ross comparison. Ross is 6'1.5", Vin at 2" shorter puts him 5'11.5". I said he POSSIBLY had a footwear advantage, he was not in his huge boots then. There's now ay he had a 2" footwear advantage over Ross.

As far as Brad Pitt, there's plenty of evidence that supports him being 5'11". You just like downgrading people so you ignore it. Vin Diesel in the 5'9"-5'10" range is laughable.
Vampiric says on 19/Apr/09
5'11.75 seems accurate enough.
derek d says on 19/Apr/09

Looks to be at least 3 inches shorter than Walker, even in those huge boots he's wearing. 5'11.75 max, and looks to be even lower in this picture. Yet he looks taller than walker in other pictures lol.
Alex2401 says on 19/Apr/09
If Vin has 182cm then i am speedy Gonzales.179cm max.
179cm + 5cm boots = 184cm
Why so many people think that is impossible?
bobo says on 19/Apr/09
Rising Force: IF you are sticking to 5 11 for Diesel, then he would actually look over 6 feet in his films. Especially with his predilcition for huge clown shoes that no normal person could wear. I agree he looks around 5 11 on camera (in his munsters) which puts him below 5 10. The personal sightings have him down there as well, the photographic evidence as well as the film and psychological evidence. Yet you insist on 5 11. Your sentences also contradict themselves

e.g. "He was at least 2" shorter than 6.1 Jonthon Ross despite a possible footwear advantage"

Lets dissect that statement. If he has a footwear advantage (lets be kind and say 2") AND he is 2" shorter than 6 1 Ross then that puts him 4" shorter.

Now lets be kind to him and say 3" shorter, despite the evidence suggesting 4". That puts him in the 5.9 5 10 range (supporting the film evidence and personal sightings which you refuse to debate). ANd then you end your post with "I stick with 5 11 for Vin".

Are you using the Wookie defence in all your posts?

YOu do the same with Brad Pitt. YOu take all the photographic and film evidence. And then contradict it without providing any evidence whatsoever.
bam says on 18/Apr/09
its weird how he looks a legit 3 inches shorter than paul walker. You'd think he would have covered that up, and maybe worn lifts for the fast and furious movie? Walker claims 6'3 just for the record. Tall people fudging their height is weird, but it happens. Maybe Walker is 6'2.25. That suddenly becomes a 2.75 inch difference if diesel is 5'11.5?

But it turns out we are all mistaken. Diesel is 5'8 as steve says! Finally we have pinpointed the man's height thanks to steve's intelligent and persuasive post.
bobo says on 18/Apr/09
weird world: there are 3 types of people who post here.

1. People who want a little distraction from the meaningless monotony of modern living.

2. People who are nuts about height and it dominates their lives.

3. People who wonder in, have no idea why they are here and then make odd comments about something they have no interest in.
1. and 2. have legitimate reasons to post. You do not. So don't.
You are quite right weird world, a height does not determine who a person is, (it simply determines their height) no one here says it does (other than you - when you did it implicitly) which is why it is called celebheights.com and not celebheightsdetermineswhotheyare.com.

I am sure there are plenty of websites dedicated to the correct way to grow geraniums. I am not interested. I don't go there. If I wondered in by mistake, I wouldn't bother posting. I would leave them to it.

Diesel has to be below 5 11. Otherwise he would regularly LOOK 6 foot on film in normal shoes. He doesn't.

I suspect some heights are inflated on this site for fear of legal reprisal. Is that a possibility Rob?

[Editor Rob: no, because everything is an estimate :)]
RisingForce says on 17/Apr/09
Now the evidence placing Vin shorter is starting to add up. He was atleast an inch shorter than his supposed 5-10 girlfriend(in 3" max heels). He was only an inch taller than 5-11 Leno, even in big boots. He was atleast 2" shorter than 6-1.5 Jonathan Ross despite a possible footwear advantage. A half inch max taller than 5-9 Chuck Norris(footwear unknown). Atleast 3" shorter than 6-2ish Paul Walker despite Vin's big boots and Paul's normal shoes.

I stick to 5-11.5 for Vin, but I can see where the 5-11 flat estimates come from.
sprint84 says on 17/Apr/09
Weird World, I think most people come on to this site because it's a fun, little distraction from their otherwise busy days. Some posters take it too seriously or, as you say, nitpick celebs to feel good about themselves, but the majority are just looking to participate in a friendly, trivial debate. That's the internet for you.
weird world says on 16/Apr/09
Why do you people care...does it make you feel good about yourselves?...get a life. Height doesnt determine who a person is.
RisingForce says on 15/Apr/09
5'10" is ridiculous for Vin. I'd guess he's 5'11.5".
tim says on 15/Apr/09
he always looked about 6'. but then again how can he stand at the same height as paul walker (6'2-3) in the fast and the furious movies
Steve says on 15/Apr/09
I saw vin in person, I'm 6'2" and I was looking at the top of his head! I would put him at 5'8" max!
JTRoN says on 14/Apr/09
how tall did you guess Leno at Brad when you met him?
bam says on 14/Apr/09
5'10 is ridiculous. 5'11.25-5'11.75 is the truth. I would probably bet money he isn't 5'10.
Alex says on 14/Apr/09
The girl Gal Gadot in Fast and the Furious was a bit taller than Vin and she's 5'11. Was in heels though but still wouldn't make him more than 5'11.
RisingForce says on 14/Apr/09
I don't know she's 5'10" for sure, but that's what she's listed at everywhere. He can look 5'11" max at times, but I'd give him 5'11.5". He seems bigger than 5'11" flat.
Brad says on 14/Apr/09
Bobo is correct. Look at him with Leno in his 24/7 365's. 5' 10" barefeet. This near 6' would make him around 6' 3" with Leno. I've met Leno. Trust me, at 6' 3" in the customs he'd eat Leno alive in height. He's very very well aware of Walker's height and pulls out all the usual movie tricks to compensate.
bam says on 14/Apr/09
rising, how do you know vin diesel's girlfriend is 5'10 for sure? He looks 5'11 tops in those pics (assuming she is 5'10(, I guess it could've been loose posture?
RisingForce says on 13/Apr/09
Wow, he isn't much taller than Leno, even in boots! Leno, I believe is 5'11" and I think he was wearing normal shoes.
bam says on 13/Apr/09
lol rob diesel is gonna kick your ass for downgrading him...
JTRoN says on 13/Apr/09
check this out, in his BIG BOOTS he's an inch taller then Leno....

bobo says on 13/Apr/09
he looks less than 5 10 in fast and Furious. They never stand him next to Paul Walker and he is always wearing those ridiculous boots. a 5 11 guy would not look that way on film, he looks like a short guy trying to be big and tall. He needs to be downgraded.

People who are saying 6 foot need to ask themselves this:

Why would a 6 foot guy have such a n obsession with height enhancing foot wear?

Wouldn't a 6 foot guy look much bigger in height enhancing foot wear, he barely looks 6 foot when he has his clown shoes on.

I say 6 foot WITH the shoes, and less than 5 10 without.

Smooth...this site is made to try and be as accurate as possible. What about 5'11.5? should that be 6ft? Who are you to decide whats the correct way.
Midnite says on 12/Apr/09
Thanks Rob, its about time. This guy is probably even less.
JTRoN says on 12/Apr/09
Smooth, one of the stupidest posts I've seen. This site isn't for rounding up or down, yeah sure you can do that when speaking to someone but this site is to pin point what the celebs actual height is.

I'm 5'11.75 and I do say 6ft (depending on who im talking to) but there is a difference, by myself I can pull it off, but most of the time beside a legit 6ft guy you can see the difference, especially if your the same height or taller.

and if you actually think your the same height as 6'2 guys your either taller then you think or the 6'2 guy isn't really 6'2
Smooth says on 11/Apr/09
who lists someone at 5ft11.75 thats garbage man you would just say 6ft which u basically are anyway u not likely 2 say well im 5ft11.75 when sumin asks ur height the man is 6ft, im 6ft2 but measured im around 6ft1.75 and theres no diference between anyone else 6ft2 when im with them so im gonna say 6ft2

F.O is correct, that is not Timothy in that picture posted by BerryRed

To BerryRed, if you see the movie you can see that that guy is not Timothy Olyphant character, the guy in the picture is the drug dealer they kidnap first..
RisingForce says on 10/Apr/09
Yeah Hugh, he can look that tall but his boots are huge. I think that 5-11.5 is perfect for Vin.

5'10" is not "very short"....c'mon...even if he is 5'10 to 5'11" that not short!!!!!!!!1
Alex says on 8/Apr/09
He looked 5'11 in the new Fast and Furious.
RisingForce says on 8/Apr/09
I see Rob downgraded him. I agree that he's not quite 6 ft. And I doubt that De Niro is as low as 5'8" flat, but what's interesting is that Vin has only 3 inches on him and Vin is closer to the camera. Plus we can't see if Vin is wearing boots.

I'd bet that Vin is 5'11.5", his huge boots got him listed at 6'2" regularly.
BerryRed says on 7/Apr/09
Yeah, I really didn't get the vibe of Diesel being over 5'11" either when I met him. Just a few random picks which caught attention, that I thought I'd share:

Diesel with 6ft Timothy Olyphant in A Man Apart (fabulous acting from Diesel in this film!). Olyphant is slightly taller than Diesel in their scenes together. Olyphant wore flats throughout the film. Diesel wore his signature big-thread boots.Click Here

Group shot with Diesel and 5'8" De Niro. Click Here
JTRoN says on 7/Apr/09
it depends on how tall Walker is too, he looks pretty tall in those pictures Boxing fighter posted. Walkers real height and Vins boots make it really difficult to pin down his height.
linebacker40 says on 5/Apr/09
A 5'11" flat for Diesel.
Shaw says on 3/Apr/09
I agree with JTRoN, Diesel did look noticeably shorter than Jonathan Ross, maybe by as much as 2 inches
Alex2401 says on 3/Apr/09
On the photos you posted Boxing Fighter Vin is 3-4" shorter than Paul and Vin is
again wearing big boots while Paul is in normal shoes.So there is a bunch of
evidence that Vin is no more than 5'10-5'10 1/2(177cm-179cm).He really looks
very tall but he is just an average height guy.
Boxing Fighter says on 2/Apr/09
I totally agree with JTRoN, I also never agreed with the 5ft10 crap that people usually say, but he was looking very short near Walker even with high shoes!
I always thought Vin Diesel as being 5ft11, but now, I believe he could be a lot more 5ft10 than 6ft.
Doug says on 1/Apr/09
Perhaps Diesel belongs to the 6 foot ego complex group that Stallone and Pitt are in which explains his huge footwear? All men would appear to be under 6 foot barefoot and it seems to shatter their egos that they are, so compensate with huge boots? At least Diesel can pull off 6'1" more comfortably than the other two though. I wonder how on earth a guy who is little more than 5'11" can have been listed at 6'4" or 6'2" for that matter.
Doug says on 1/Apr/09
Walker looks 6'2.5" to me, he is noticeably tall he really isn't so far off 6'3" as people might think, he does claim this. This would put Diesel at 5'11.5" which I think he is. Remember Walker is clearly secure with his height and always wears flat sneakers even to premieres and Vin is always wearing huge boots.
RisingForce says on 30/Mar/09
That's what I was hoping JTRoN, especially since Ross apparently has an interest in height himself as I've heard he's brought up the subject a lot. It would have been even worse if Vin claimed 6'2" which he is or was officially listed at.
JTRoN says on 30/Mar/09
wow Vin looks even shorter in those pictures B Fighter posted, even if Walker was 6'3 that would still put Vin around 5'11-6

I never agreed with the 5'10 stuff people always posted but seeing pictures like that make me wonder, and he's wearing his boots too
Boxing Fighter says on 30/Mar/09

Come on guys, if Paul Walker is 6ft2 Vin diesel cannot be taller than 5ft11.
He does look at least 2" (or 3") shorter than walker BUT he is using massive boots! Just look at the picture.
Walker shoes looks very normal to me.
I always thought he was 5ft11, but after seeing this photos I think he is even shorter.
JTRoN says on 29/Mar/09
damn, if you pause the jonathan ross video at about 7:24 you see that diesel is a little closer the the camera and ross is behind his desk, and there's still a noticeable difference, but if they stood side by side Vin looks 5"11

funny vin claimes 6'1 and ross claims 6'1.5 yet ross is 2" taller lol would have been funny if he asked Vin how tall he was
Lenad says on 24/Mar/09
Looks a proper 182cm guy
mamas says on 24/Mar/09
he looks tall hopefully he is at least 5 11 but no matter what he is still sexy as hell
RisingForce says on 24/Mar/09
I was hoping that Ross would bring up height because I've heard that he has an interest in height. It would have been funny if Vin claimed 6'1" like he did on the radio show or 6'2" like he was officially listed at. It would have been funny to see Jonathan's reaction because he's 6'1.5" himself and around 2 inches taller than Vin.
Doug says on 24/Mar/09
Yeah maybe possibly he is 6' he looked very close to it. He is not below 182 though I'm pretty sure.
RisingForce says on 23/Mar/09
I don't see many similarities between Vin and Telly Savalas except that they're both bald and wore height enhancing footwear almost 24/7.

I agree Doug, weak 6'0" or maybe more like 5'11.5".
Doug says on 23/Mar/09
Looks a very similar height to Bruce Willis it has to be said. Am I the only one though you thinks Diesel looks like Telly Savalas did??
Doug says on 23/Mar/09
I would estimate exactly 5'11.5" (182 cm) based on pics I've seen and clips compared to Jonathan Ross etc..
Doug says on 23/Mar/09
Haha 6'4" is hilarious. "big heeled bone-crushing boots" is an understatement. The man is a weak 6' in my view. A likely 182cm everywhere I've seen him.
Curious says on 22/Mar/09
I go with the guys that are saying 5'10'' 5'11'', i have met him before, and i am 6'3'', he really did seem like 5'11'' (same height as my dad)
maximus says on 22/Mar/09
5'11" sound about right....not too short but not too tall...a fairly decent height...even 5'10" is a fairly decent height...especially with shoes. If Vin was short, which he is not, it would be very obvious....examples..cruise,pacino,hoffman...etc..etc.
RisingForce says on 22/Mar/09
Yeah, Vin does look shorter at the end of the video.
Anonymous says on 21/Mar/09
Rising Force,

I didn't realise that Jonathon Ross was 6' 1.5", I thought he was 6' 1". I still think Vin looks about two inches shorter than Ross (watch when they shake hands at the end) which makes him about 5' 11.5".
RisingForce says on 21/Mar/09
I do agree though miko that 5'11.5" makes a lot of sense. I wouldn't rule out 6'0" though either.
RisingForce says on 21/Mar/09
Here is the appearance that Anonymous is referring to.
Click Here

Vin did look 6 ft compared to 6'1.5" Jonathan and it seems that Vin isn't wearing big boots.
miko says on 21/Mar/09
Agreed. Couldn't tell how big his boots were on Ross but they were chunky.

Ended up about 1" shorter than 6"1 Ross in them anyway. All evidence seems to point to 5"11.5 at the minute.
Anonymous says on 20/Mar/09
Just saw him on Jonathon Ross. He's no taller than 5' 11". He needs to be downgraded to 5' 11.5" at least.
RisingForce says on 16/Mar/09
Actually Glenn considering the size of his boots I could easily see him going from 5'11.5" to 6'2" in them. That makes sense to me. He does look bigger than some 5'11" flat guys like Mickey Rourke, but shorter than some legit 6 footers considering the boots he wears.
Alex2401 says on 16/Mar/09
Guy with bodybuilders build often look taller because he gives impression of big.
178cm is not short for Vin or for any guy.With big boots and 182cm he would be
much bigger,maybe 188-189cm and he is not that tall.
Range of 177-179cm seems right(5'10 1/2)+ big boots 6'1.
In the "Pacifier" he is 10 inches shorter than Brad Garrett.
glenn says on 15/Mar/09
alex-you always forget what i see.while i think diesel could be 5-11.5,i saw him at 6-2 in big boots recently.
RisingForce says on 14/Mar/09
The problem is that Vin is almost always in huge boots. Rarely is he wearing anything else. I've even seen him in his Frankenstein boots on the beach.
Alex says on 13/Mar/09
I never seen Vin looking 6'0ish unless he's in some type of big boots. On TV for the superbowl I saw him next to Vin and he was taller than Vin by at least an inch and Paul was in these pretty flat looking sneakers compared to Vin's chunky looking boots/shoes.
RisingForce says on 13/Mar/09
Yeah, a strong 5'11", maybe 5'11" and change makes sense. Glenn's initial estimate I believe was 5'11.5".
bam says on 11/Mar/09
good job rising. I'd have a hard time buying a full 6' based on that pic. I would guess 5'11.25. In clunky boots he can look tall.
Midget says on 10/Mar/09
I agree with Brad on this one. Max 5'11" for Vin but not as short as 5'10" though. Of all the movies of his that i have enjoyed and studied his height in i have never once thought he was 6' barefoot or taller. Strong 5'11" at most which is still a great height for a male, i wouldn't be complaining considering im 5'5.5" soaking wet! lol.
anonymous says on 9/Mar/09
A solid 5 foot 11.
el toppo says on 26/Feb/09
I've met him a few times. 6 foot is wrong. 5'11 at the most is being generous. No way shorter than that, but no way taller.
Brad says on 25/Feb/09
His girlfriend is at 6' 1" max in heels and Vin is being owned. Give it up, he isn't 6' and never will be.
RisingForce says on 20/Feb/09
Maybe she's one of those tall women who says they're shorter than they really are. If she's 5'10" then that's easily the shortest I've ever seen Vin look. Then again that's one of the rare times I've seen a picture where he's actually wearing dress shoes.
Alex says on 15/Feb/09
If she's 5'10 barefoot which I can see then yea 6'1 max in heels because those aren't huge heels. And that may be actually over an inch difference like 1.5 inches. Points back to Vin being 5'11 which may be dead on.
ewt says on 13/Feb/09
movie babylon ad...scenes with fighter Jerome le Banner(in the cage,the red haired guy).Le Banner is around 6'3"(190),wearing shallow,fighting sneakers,and he looks way taller than Diesel who is wearing his elevators...

5'10(178Cm) and 2.5(6.3cm) inch shoes = 6.05(184cm)height.Average guy has 0.5 inch
up to 1 inch shoes and hes got 2.5 inch shoes so that makes him even with people
with normal shoes who are really 5'11 or just below 6'0.
Take away his big boots and you have 5'10 guy.

Maybe a full 6 foot is a bit much, after all one of the rare times we've seen him in dress shoes he was shorter than his 5'10" listed girlfriend who was wearing heels. She would have been about 6'1" max in her heels and he was about an inch shorter.

So maybe this picture with 5'9" Chuck Norris wasn't an illusion. Click Here

I'd say more like 5'11" or 5'11.5" for Vin and with those massive 3/3.5 inch boots he can pass for quite a bit taller.

With these boots he's giving Robert Downey Jr. a run for his money.

The 5'10" stuff for Vin is pretty absurd, but more 5'11ish, 5'11.5" max would explain the Norris picture and how he looked so short next to his girlfriend in just about the only picture I could find of him in dress shoes.
Alex says on 5/Feb/09
James, no I meant he winded up being 2 inches shorter than I was. Not 2 inches less than my estimate before seeing him.
Clay says on 3/Feb/09
He's minimum 5'11-5'11.5 though as he always look 6'1/6'2 in his clunky boots.
Complex says on 3/Feb/09
No I didn't alex but you're a legit 6'0 and i'm sorry if it makes everyone mad but Vin is 5'11 tops, he's not 6'0. And he may be in the 5'10 range, so i'm sure you'd be taller.

I'd guess not clay since he was shorter than Malkovich who is the same height as alex, logic would tell one the answer.
RisingForce says on 3/Feb/09
His boots are almost always more than 1.5 inches. 2 inches, plus probably something inside. They're unusually thick.
Alex says on 2/Feb/09
Thing with Vin also is a lot he tends to wear biggish type of boots that look to give 1.5-2 inches of height.
Alex says on 2/Feb/09
Complex, you saw pics of me on here? I posted some over time being on here.

James, I knew Angle was going to be a bit shorter but I figured an inch shorter since I thought he was 5'11 but winded up being 2 inches less. No big deal because you'll have other celebs who will be a good couple inches shorter than you'd expect. You'll have guys who will believe Kane is 7'0 and wind up meeting him and see he's a good couple inches shorter.
Clay says on 2/Feb/09
Well is it really any suprise you think that Complex?
Complex says on 2/Feb/09
I'm a thousand percent positive that Alex would be taller than Vin, even if not by much, he would be taller!
Alex says on 1/Feb/09
I just saw Paul Walker and Vin side by side standing on NBC as part of the superbowl pre game stuff. Walker only looked an inch to maybe 1.5 inches taller BUT he looked to have flatter type sneakers like converse type while Vin looked to have some sort of boot on.

James, I would think I'd be a bit taller but you never know.
Alex says on 1/Feb/09
I'd like to meet Vin. I'd be a good comparison to him.
Alex says on 30/Jan/09
I've seen as much as 2-2.5 inches between Vin and Paul. Paul I dont put more than 6'1 1/2. That puts Vin at 5'11.

Going to have to disagree there VanDrak in Knockaround guys he looked tall and he looked BIG.

I'm a big Vin Diesel fan. The guy is a great action hero. He plays the same loud and aggressive take charge/kick ass character in every movie. Now realize this: Every action hero has a certain expectation to be "larger than life." So as a result many of them will do everything they can to look their best. Often this includes adding muscle and tone to their body, wearing clothing that showcases or enhances their physique and even footwear that enhances their height. Look, its all about image. -Vin Diesel never appears to be a short guy in his movies, nor does he ever look overly tall. I would say that Vin is likely 5'11" barefoot, with a solid build. I myself am 6'2" (barefoot) and I have worked out(4 to 5 days a week)for the past 8 years. I weigh 225 pounds. My bodyfat was last calculated to be 10% (when I went through police college). I am never confused with being 5'10" or 5'11". Often people tend to "boost" me to 6'3", though I am only 6'2". Once a man is 6 feet tall or more, he never is confused with being 5'10" unless he hangs out with 7 foot tall NBA stars or Big Bird. LOL! -Watch Knock Around Guys, Fast and the Furious or Triple X. Vin NEVER appears overly tall, he often looks average height,but with a solid build. It is Vin's extra muscle (compared to the average man)that makes people image that he "must be larger". -Whether Vin Diesel is 5'11" barefoot or 6 feet plus with his boots, it does not take away from the great roles he has played that have made him a living legend.

Glenn, true it can go the other way too looking 2-3 inches shorter but normally its 2-3 inches taller. I've been guessed at 6'4 once and 5'8 once.
