6ft 6 (198.1 cm)
American actor, best known for voicing Patrick in SpongeBob SquarePants, playing Dauber Dybinski in Coach and also Marvin Sr. in How I Met Your Mother. In a DenofGeek interview he mentioned "When you’re an actor and you’re 6’6” and you look like a goofball, you’re going to play big goofballs," and in a Wired interview said "Six-Six and a half".

Rob, any validity to that 6ft6½ claim?
I reckon earlier in the day he may have got it for real, not necessarily a shoe claim.

Editor RobCould Bill have once measured it? I suppose it's to be considered as a possibility!

@Rob The 6'6.5 claim is probably his morning height. I mean, Bo Burnham reaches that height in the morning and he is presumably half an inch shorter.

@Tall Sam If there's 7 inches between them, then Tom Kenny at a strong 5'10 would make Bill Fagerbakke a strong 6'5, which can't be right next to Jason Segel

Rob would you consider a page for Tom Kenny? He looks maybe a strong 5’10”, maybe around 5’10.5” seemed a little taller than Bob Odenkirk & David Cross but a little shorter than Alan Ruck, with a believable 7+ inch difference with Bill.

M-O-O-N spells Bill Fagerbakke, and anyone who's a fan of Stephen King's brilliant 'The Stand' will know what I mean, but he's a simplistic man for good reason, as he has a mammoth task ahead of him, and no one will suspect him because of his constant spelling out of MOON and general way of behaviour. 🌝
He's loveable and warm, and is accepted by Mother Abigail (Ruby Dee) with open arms, as is everyone else, except for Nadine Cross. Ruby has been chosen by God for her exceptional faith, and just before she meets them all, she was playing with a remote control lawnmower and laughing her little head off, as was I! 😂👌
Bill is by far the giant of the cast, and I didn't disbelieve the height I read for him while rooting around with the cast a few moments ago.
6ft6. 🌛😁

6ft 6 is a lot less common than 5ft 6 for the peak height of American adult males, but slightly more common than 5ft 2.

Ryan Stiles could be a guy holding well at 198.5cm a low but just with 6'6 claim. I remember Ryan look close to 4" taller than flat 189cm Ashton Kutcher. Bill does give a shorter 6'6 impression than Ryan.

@Junior: I don’t know. I think he may still be the full 6’6”. Stiles is built (proportionately) differently than him but I won’t rule out 6’5.75

Bill is 6'6 1/2-3/8 out of bed and 6'5 3/4 before bed. Ryan Lee Stiles is a stronger 6'6.

@Dream: I can see him measuring somewhere around what Bill Deblasio or Perhaps Carmelo Anthony would measure. He does look 6’6” often enough

@Christian
It’s possible.
At the same time, I still have to look into Bill, but he does look an easy 6’6” guy. If he was under 6’6” (which I doubt) I think it would be no more than 1/16ths of an inch. He’d be taller than Owen Benjamin.

@Dream: Melo May also fall around that category of 198.5. I don’t have him below 6’6” however

I think he could be the first 6’6 1/8th” guy.

Even at an old age, I’ve never seen Jason Segel look that small.
I gotta wonder, do many people mistake him to be much taller than he is?

Rob, what are the odds that Bill (at his peak) could be a solid 6'6"?
I saw a few pictures of him and Craig T Nelson.

Maybe worth adding Tom Kenny at 5'10.5"-5'10.75", who also looked maybe a weak 5'11" range back with Bob & David on Mr. Show.

I think he was the 6'6 at peak if Craig T. Nelson was the 6'3.5 he's listed at here. Weak 6'6 could be true today but he doesn't do much live action anymore. I think he is still at least 2 inches taller than Jason Segel

He towered over every other cast member in Oz. A very big guy indeed. He even made 6'3 Jason Segel look short in comparison in HIMYM.

Pam Stone, who herself is 6'0" tall...played the Ladie's Basketball coach & Dobber's part time girl friend on the TV Show Coach with Craig T Nelson ( 6'3" barefoot )...And in one episode she refers to Dobber as being 6'5". They were basically talking about the benefits of dating each other...she said jokingly..."well, you being 6'5" helps" ...with Pam her self being a legit 6'0" tall...some have even called her 6'1"...however, she once also called herself 6'0" tall in socks, in one of her stand up comedy routines from years ago.
