James said on 9/Jun/09
Interesting Frank2. I could buy a strong 5'11 over 6'1. I think camera trickery is why he could look 6'1 at times on screen. Its like how strong 6'2 guys like Paul Walker can look 6'3 in films.
Hugh 190cm said on 9/Jun/09
Willis did look a solid 6ft in the Die Hard films.
Brad said on 9/Jun/09
Glenn said he's a solid 6' 1".

I used to walk on the set of MOONLIGHTING since it was filmed on the Fox lot where I worked. Cybill Shepherd was usually in her stocking feet since she's about 5'8". I never did see Willis wearing lifts nor did I ever see him standing on a board. He always looked to be a solid 5'11". By the way, Cybill detests shoes especially high heels. Most of the time when she did wear shoes, they were tennis shoes. Only for long shots did she wear heels and then she'd kick them off just as soon as the camera stopped rolling. The two pretty much hated each other. I remember when they had a feud where the show was shut down temporarily. Plus they tried to outdo each other with how big their motor homes where. Kind of childish if you ask me, but then most successful actors behave like spoiled rotten children.

i met issacs jason he was a bit shorter than me but i had more shoes so we are near enaugh the same height 5 ft 11 and bruce did look 2 in more
dmeyer said on 9/Jun/09
bruce did look 6 ft 1 in a few scenes in armaggedon but then looks a bit smaller than fichtner who i think was 6 ft back then
T.J. said on 8/Jun/09
EXACTLY the same height as Gene Simmons (6'1")
So either Gene is 5'11" or Bruce is 6'1"
Hugh 190cm said on 8/Jun/09
Who James, Vin or Willis?
Brad said on 8/Jun/09
He wore large customs for every episode of Moonlighting....he had to.
Ace said on 2/Jun/09
Bruce's Boots in the first two look fairly similar in heel size. But overall, i can't think of another time when bruce wore large footwear.
James said on 2/Jun/09
Stong 6'1 in those boots
TELLEM said on 2/Jun/09
why on earth is he dressed like that? and those boots are ugly and embarrassing.
Brad said on 2/Jun/09
Vin boots are what Glenn failed to mention. Karloffing. Sick stuff.
RisingForce said on 1/Jun/09
You might want to rethink that Ace. I've never seen Bruce in any boots comparable to these. Click Here Click Here Click Here Vin's boots are truly massive.
Ace said on 1/Jun/09
The boots he's wearing do actually look similar to the one's vin wears RisingForce.
RisingForce said on 1/Jun/09
Bruce's boots are nothing like Vin Diesel's. Vin's boots look almost like the boots that Boris Karloff wore when he played Frankenstein!
James said on 31/May/09
At times could even look 6ft in Drilbit Taylor
Ace said on 30/May/09
Good point James. Owen did look a legit 5`11 in that film.
Misha said on 30/May/09
Glenn, I have studied this photo very carefully and now realize I was underestimating Willis' height - he has more than the two inches I originally
saw, and could gain another half inch just by matching Mamun's posture. I also agree with Rising Force that Willis is very down-to-earth and not at all the type to obsess over his height. Therefore I could buy 5'11.5". The photo with Ashton Krutcher is troubling, but in all fairness it should be pointed out that they are both assuming very unusual postures that could be distorting their difference in height.
Hugh 190cm said on 30/May/09
No I don't James. 6ft1.5 is nonsense. 6ft0.5 maybe peak?
Dural said on 29/May/09
Brad says on 28/May/09
He wore huge lifts on Moonlighting & against other A list actors. Owen is 5' 9.5" tops. Ever see him with Stiller?

or Jackie Chan...
James said on 29/May/09
Brad ever seen Drilbit Taylor? Cause Owen looked a legit 5'11 in that film.
miko said on 29/May/09
Bruce might not wear lifts, but some of his boots are huge.

Look at those with Travolta, easy 2.5" heel.

Vin Diesel & Willis Boots Corporation.
RisingForce said on 29/May/09
I don't see Bruce simply wearing boots one day as proof that he wore lifts. People wear boots for reasons other than looking taller. Bruce never seemed to care much about his height as far as I could tell.
Brad said on 28/May/09
He wore huge lifts on Moonlighting & against other A list actors. Owen is 5' 9.5" tops. Ever see him with Stiller?
TELLEM said on 28/May/09

RisingForce said on 28/May/09
I've never seen anything that led me to believe that Bruce wears lifts. He could be a bit under 6 feet, but I wouldn't bet on it.
TELLEM said on 28/May/09
its called LIFTS. and willis, being the main actor in a big budget film, must of sported them for good reason.
James said on 28/May/09
Hugh you don't seriously belive Willis is 6'1.5?

Maybe more 2.5 inches between Bruce and Wilson!
RisingForce said on 28/May/09
How tall do you think Owen is Brad? Don't tell me you believe the crap about Owen being 5'9". Owen is 5'11" or close to it.
Brad said on 28/May/09
Owen has never been 5' 10.5" in his life.
Hugh 190cm said on 28/May/09
Did he actually 3 inches over Owen Wilson? Well Owen wilson is 5ft10.5 so that would make Willis 6ft1.5!
RisingForce said on 27/May/09
He also looked close to Ben Affleck's height in some scenes in Armageddon. The lowest I can buy for Bruce is the 5'11.75" figure that you see him listed at a lot. Bruce could very well be over 6 feet.
James said on 27/May/09
Well he did have 3 inches on Owen Wilson in Armeggeddon.
Brad said on 27/May/09
He had to look tall in Armageddon, he knew he'd look like Cybil.
TELLEM said on 27/May/09
hes shorter than 6'0.5 (peak height) dennis farina in striking distance, and looked the same height as 5'11 tom sizemore in the same film. I know the film is brutal to watch, but if you ever stumble upon it, watch it for the sake of knowing bruce willis' height
Ace said on 27/May/09
Armageddon was the tallest Bruce has looked (with the possible exception of Die Hard 2). Although, we have seen from real life photos with the actors from the film (mainly Ben Affleck) that he doesn't look anywhere near 6`1 next to them.
Lenad said on 27/May/09
I'd say a weak 6ft0 182-183cm
Clay said on 26/May/09
He is entering his mid 50's so definitely a height loss since his peak.
Brad said on 26/May/09
He's never been over 5' 11" in his life.

Editor Rob
he was 6ft 1 in Armageddon...well during the space scenes.
James said on 26/May/09
Maybe at his peak he might have measured at 6'25-6.05 out of bed and firgured he was close enough to 6'1 to claim it.
Doug said on 26/May/09
A solid 5'11" figures compared to most people. I also agree with Alex I think he was 6'0 at peak. 6'1" definately not, unless in boots.
Midget said on 26/May/09
I agree with Alex.Defenitely not over 5'11" now days.
Alex said on 25/May/09
Willis is crazy to claim 6'1 as much as I like him as an actor. He was 6'0 at his peak though. Today he doesn't look over 5'11.
Misha said on 25/May/09
Glenn: Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. I have always respected your opinions as well, based as they are on repeated observation and literally
thousands of comparisons. Thus for you, old friend, I'm willing to go to a solid 5'11" for Willis. Nevertheless I remain puzzled by numerous red carpet/premiere types of photos where Willis is dead even with Matt Damon and others who are not likely more than 5'10" at most.
Midget said on 21/May/09
A smidge over 180cm max barefoot. He hasn't hit 6' since his early 20's I reckon.Still tall though. And bald.lol
James said on 21/May/09
Doug yeah its strange Schwimmer has facial features and the build that a really tall guy has in some ways. Not saying Schwimmer ain't tall though because he is tall.
Doug said on 21/May/09
There is roughly a 3.5 inch height difference between Tom Selleck and David Schwimmer they are standing face to face and you can see their feet.
Doug said on 21/May/09
James, Schwimmer has you conned. I also agree in shoes he looks the full 6'2" as he has the build and general look of a 6'2" guy. Watch the scene in Friends where him and Selleck are in their socks. If you believe Schwimmer is 6'1" or 6'2" legit then Selleck is 6'4.5-6'5.5" which is too high. Trust me, Schwimmer is struggling with a flat 6'1" barefoot. David Walliams is an example of a legit 6'2.5" and Schwimmer was in his clumpy shoes in that picture too.
Brad said on 20/May/09
Correct Guk.
GUK said on 20/May/09
Willis isn't even 6ft let alone 6ft1.
Hugh 190cm said on 20/May/09
Glenn if you say Willis is 6ft1 wouldn't that make him over 6ft1 in the morning.
Brad said on 19/May/09
The Joker.
Hugh 190cm said on 19/May/09
Brad what are you saying? 'Cesar Romaro from Batman '66 '

Anyway Willis should be at least 5ft11.75.
James said on 19/May/09
Brad says on 18/May/09
Glenn said 6' 1". He seems to know heights, like his own. Cesar Romero soundbite from Batman '66.

What does that mean?
TELLEM said on 19/May/09
Brad says on 18/May/09
Glenn said 6' 1". He seems to know heights, like his own. Cesar Romero soundbite from Batman '66.

LOL!
Brad said on 19/May/09
Miko is correct.
Ace said on 19/May/09
Ouch Brad lol. Anyway, the notion of Bruce Willis being 6`1 really was a joke. He would always be at bare minimum an inch shorter than 6`1 actors in all of his photos, and usually the difference was closer to 1.5-2 inches. And on the show moonlighting, he never looked close to 6`1 for even a moment. Flat out, he is at best 5`11.75, and at minimum 5`11.
miko said on 19/May/09
5"11 + boots.
TELLEM said on 18/May/09
unknown says on 18/May/09
I dont know about anyone else...but Bruce is never getting a 6 feet listing here,lol!

thats because he isn't 6'0.
Brad said on 18/May/09
Glenn said 6' 1". He seems to know heights, like his own. Cesar Romero soundbite from Batman '66.
unknown said on 18/May/09
I dont know about anyone else...but Bruce is never getting a 6 feet listing here,lol!
James said on 18/May/09
Schwimmer because of his build can look 6'2 on TV I will admit that. 6'0.5 is too low.
RisingForce said on 18/May/09
in fairness, the low angle in the picture with affleck favors the taller guy. willis is also slouchlng terribly. even with those advantages for affleck the difference is only 3 inches. Click Here without them, bruce would surely look 6 ft.
Ace said on 18/May/09
Also, all one has to do is go back and watch some moonlighting, and you will plainly see bruce look like he's 5`10 half of the time next to Shepherd. The only times on the show he ever looks over it is when she is barefoot (which she was a lot)
Ace said on 18/May/09
If Schwimmer is indeed only 6`1 (which is where my money is), then Bruce Willis is at best 5`11.5. Even if Schwimmer were 6`2, Bruce would still not be a full 6`1.
Doug said on 18/May/09
David Walliams James had about 2 inches on him. I would say 6.0.5" for Schwimmer, barefoot anyway but obviously near 6'2" in clumpy shoes anyway. That would fit the bill with how he looked barefoot next to 6'3.5"-6'4" Tom Selleck. If Selleck is 6'4", Schwimmer 6'0.5" then Willis is likely 5'11- 5'11.5" as Schwimmer seemed to have a footwear advantage over him making the height difference maybe 1-1.5 inches. I agree with Glenn that Willis often gave off a 6'1" impression and he certainly has the build of a 6'1" man but as I say there are a lot of times when it makes more sense he is a 5'11"er.
Doug said on 18/May/09
Compared to legit 6'2"-6'3" guys like Affleck and Gabriel Aubry, Willis looks a flat 5'11" has to be said. At peak I always thought he was a legit 6' and 6'1" in shoes, doesn't look it nowadays compared to legit 6'2" guys.
dmeyer said on 18/May/09
i met kutcher he is at the very lest 6 ft 2 and max 6 gt 2.75
Brad said on 17/May/09
I've met Elliot Gould, so much for Schwimmer at 6' 2".
James said on 17/May/09
Yeah 5'10.5 with a slouch next to Affleck
GUK said on 17/May/09
Click Here that's not a 1.5 inch difference, more like 3 which gives 5ft 11.5.
James said on 17/May/09
6'2.5 David Williams looked taller than Schwimmer as well.
Doug said on 17/May/09
The reaosn why I doubt Schwimmer is close to 6'2" Hugh is that 6'3" Gabrielle Reece is low heels had 2.5 inches on him, Elliot Gould 6'3" towered Schwimmer and Tom Selleck clearly made the 6'2" claims look silly as he was 3-4 inches taller than him. Barefoot Schwimmer is struggling with 6'1" he seems to wear clumpy shoes to give off a 6'22"impression.
Hugh 190cm said on 17/May/09
Schwimmer is definately close to 6ft2. I will say that Willis has the build of a 6ft1 guy. Might however be little below that mark. 184cm?]
Maybe he is 6ft1 in the morning.
glenn said on 16/May/09
exactly.willis isn't exactly standing straight above either.mamun as one said here awhile back is reaching for the stars.lol.and thats not a knock on him.schwimmer is 6-2.yet nobody will believe me and thats fine.acg's friend also met him and they agree with 6-2.
James said on 16/May/09
Don't know why but I have always pictured Schwimmer as being over 6'1.
Ace said on 16/May/09
Its really hard to argue 5`10 for bruce Misha. His median photo height is around 5`11-6`0. He can look 6`1 at times, but that is rare, and he doesn't have as poor posture as some will stipulate. I think Rob has him just about right.
Brad said on 16/May/09
Val was 6' right in front of me, 1 foot away. Willis isn't taller than Val, he's 5' 11".
Doug said on 16/May/09
Just saw the Friends episode where Schwimmer is standing next to Bruce Willis. He had almost two inches on Bruce Willis. All I'll say is that if Willis is 6' then Schwimmer is around 6'2" which I think is false. If Willis is 5'11.5" and Schwimmer 6'1" I could just about buy that. Schwimmer must wear big shoes as he often looks 6'2" in them and in scenes where he is barefoot he looked SO much shorter around 6 flat barefoot. Schwimmer probably had a footwear advantage over Willis but I saw a two inch difference with whatever they had on.
RisingForce said on 16/May/09
5-10 for bruce? that's just ridiculous.
James said on 16/May/09
Similar differnce in Mamuns pic to how Rob Van Dam looked next to Mamun.
James said on 16/May/09
I agree Misha but in the pic Kutchers feet are slightly lifted of the ground making appear a little taller. I'd say in realitly there is a weak 4 inches between Kutcher and Willis judging by photos.

As for the Mamun pic well he is standing with millitary posture and a lot of the time Mamun can appear to look a 5'9 guy in photos. And yeah clearly not 6'1 in Mamuns pic.
James said on 15/May/09
lol if you actually look closely at Ashton Kutcher next to Bruce Willis notice Ashtons feet are slightly of the ground. That and the baseball cap making him look taller.
James said on 15/May/09
Yeah impossible Bruce being 6'1 if he's getting towered that much. 6'0 max for me but hay I could be wrong of course?
DejaVu said on 15/May/09
Judging by the pictures next to Kutcher where he gets towered by 4 inches proves that he is not 6'1.
Rob G said on 14/May/09
Damm, even if Snoop Dogg was 6'5" that would put Kuther at 6'2" max
James said on 14/May/09
Snoop is listed as 6'3.5 on this site which judging by that pic would make Ashton Kutcher like a flat 6'1. Actually I think Snoops baseball cap and the camera angle is adding to the illusion of him being taller than Kutcher.
GUK said on 13/May/09
Willis' publicity team need a medal. Their are few pics of him with well known tall actors other than a few blips.
Brad said on 13/May/09
I think Ashton isn't his listed height if Snoop is 6' 4".
TELLEM said on 13/May/09
now imagine bruce willis next to snoop dogg
TELLEM said on 13/May/09
ashton completely towered by 6'4 snoop dogg: Click Here

James said on 13/May/09
4.5 inches between Bruce and Kutcher
Brad said on 12/May/09
Ashton just eats him up.
TELLEM said on 12/May/09
bruce willis and ashton kutcher: Click Here Click Here
James said on 12/May/09
Misha theres actually a clip from Oceans 12 where Willis has 2.5 inches on Damon.
Misha said on 11/May/09
I still maintain that there are nagging uncertainties with insisting that Bruce Willis is six feet tall or even 6'1". The photo with Ashton Kutcher was taken on level pavement at a distance, which greatly minimizes the distorting camera
angles an extreme close-up can create. Kutcher looks four or perhaps even five inches taller than Willis in that photo - this is a difference that cannot be casually dismissed. There are many recent photos of Willis taken with various
women and they are frequently taller than him. There are photos of Willis with Matt Damon and their heights are identical, yet no one ever claims more than
5'10" for Damon. Am I the only one who sees some serious inconsistencies here?
James said on 11/May/09
I agree with Brad I just can't see 5'11.5 next to Timothy.
Brad said on 11/May/09
Draw a line from Supermun's mouth to Willis straight across. Just add. 5' 11".
James said on 10/May/09
Bruce looks like 5'10.5 next to Olphant. In his youth I persoanlly think if Bruce held a tape measure to his head he be in between 182-183cm.
Ace said on 9/May/09
Their shoes seem like normal dress shoes RisingForce: Click Here
RisingForce said on 9/May/09
military posture ace? he isn't slouching, but military posture is how stallone and pitt stand. willis isn't standing like that. if Olyphant is 6-0 then willis looks 5-11.5 max there. some people on timothy's page claim over 6 ft for him though, i can't really state an opinion on timothy's height because i'm not familiar enough with him to give a good estimate. what kind of shoes were timothy and bruce wearing?
Hugh 190cm said on 9/May/09
In fairness maybe olyplant is a bit taller than 6ft.
Ace said on 8/May/09
Risingforce, you mention his "posture" making him an enigma. Here he is with Military Posture next to 6`0 Timothy Olyphant (who has relaxed posture), and yet... he doesn't look near 6`1: Click Here
TELLEM said on 8/May/09
i agree risingforce. willis has appeared taller than 6'0 several times aswell.
RisingForce said on 8/May/09
that sounds about right tellem. i'm unsure on willis, but that sounds right. looks atleast 6 ft morning.
TELLEM said on 8/May/09
6'0 morning height is what i peg willis at (5'11.5 in the day, of course)
glenn said on 8/May/09
well its safe to say he is 6ft in the morning at worse.that would be perfect for the 5-11 believers.
glenn said on 7/May/09
the lowest i saw willis was 5-11.75.with bad posture.i have 6-1 friends that look that too.
glenn said on 7/May/09
not anytime soon.i hope.however,some security guy that was near willis,not with him,claimed that he was 6-2(the security guy),and i thought 6ft at first,but immediately realised 6-1.willis and the security guy were of similar height.that would be 6-1 again for willis.but he did seem 6ft to me.not 6-1.my eyes can deceive.
RisingForce said on 7/May/09
bruce did look very close in height to 6-1.5 listed damon waynes in some scenes in the last boy scout. others he looked as much as 1.5 inches shorter. bruce and 6-0, 6-1 denzel were about the same height in the siege as well. the lowest i could see is 5-11.75, 6-1 is defintley possible though. he's an enigma because of his posture.
Brad said on 7/May/09
When is he going to be "5' 11" this time"?
glenn said on 7/May/09
yet again turned me down for the photo with a few nights ago.6ft this time.
Anonymous said on 6/May/09
Based on that picture with Big sam, Uma thurman and John travolta Willis is 6ft1ish, travolta is 6ft2ish, Big Sam 6ft3ish and Uma Thurman is 6ftish.
glenn said on 2/May/09
i dont judge from photos brad.like you say "meet him yourself".
peteyork said on 1/May/09
6'1, schimmer had at least 1 and 1/2 on him, and ross is always 6 in uk unless he just does not wear shoes. bruce normally looks 5'11, may be a tall 5'11 as rob has him here, but no more.
Brad said on 30/Apr/09
Take a line from Mamun's nose and draw it across. That's supposed to be 5" to Bruce's nose for 6' 1".

ha ha good one Glenn. I agree. I saw die hard last night and 6ft1 was what I saw.
Midget said on 29/Apr/09
Good pics Ace. I still believe he was never over 182.5cm like my friend who knows him pretty well keeps telling me. I Still think he is 180cm max barefoot nowadays. looks 181cm-182cm in Ace's pic as well.Im with Brad, never has Bruce been 6'1" barefoot. Sorry Glenn, i just cant see 6'1" for Bruce in either pics or his movies.
Glenn- On the occassions that you have met Bruce has his footwear ever seemed dubious or suspect at all? Slight heel insert or lift maybe. Just .5" to an 1" maybe?
Brad said on 29/Apr/09
He's never been 6' 1" in his life let alone 6'.

anyone can say whatever they want for that matter.but if you cant back up your words,it doesnt mean anything.not to sound like a jerk.willis lives in my city and i have been witnessing him for 20 years.most likely 6-1.i see it,and he claims it.6ft min.
Brad said on 27/Apr/09
Uh, Damon isn't even 6' nor is he 5' 11".
averageBruce said on 26/Apr/09
wow...Oceans 12 is on and Bruce Wills is the exact same height as Matt Damon! They are nose to nose in the scene and are exactly the same height...wow Matt Damon is 6 foot tall! wow
Big King said on 26/Apr/09
Well he is a legit 6'0" in my opinion.
ikbtops said on 22/Apr/09
Anyone can say their 6'1". I'm 9'4.25". He's about 5'11" in this pic.
RisingForce said on 21/Apr/09
I appreciate your apology Tellem and I apologize for my comments as well. I take back everything I said, I wanted to say that before I stop posting here for good. I did say that I was done posting here on the Stallone page and I'm not going back on that, but I felt it important to admit I was out of line after reading your post.
Heightgirl said on 20/Apr/09
Bruce only looks 2" taller than Mamun so I give him 5f10!
TELLEM said on 20/Apr/09
fair enough risingforce, i went too far in arguing and criticizing you or anyone else. what was said, was already said though, can't change it back. And therefore, i apologize. but lets move on. as of right now, whatever i said bad about you was before typing this.
RisingForce said on 20/Apr/09
And since I've decided not to post here anymore I'd like to say one last thing. Who would miss your posts if you left? Nobody would even notice.
Ace said on 20/Apr/09
Rob, can we do something about this. They have been fighting for a while now. I always thought this site is meant to be lighthearted in tone.
RisingForce said on 20/Apr/09
I get more insults than you Tellem, but I also get more compliments. I've been complimented by Glenn, Annoyed, bam, leonari and ACG off the top of my head. And yes I have been thinking about leaving the site, if not for those posters saying they appreciate my posts then I would have left a long time ago.

Look no further than your "we're not talking about Marlon Brando comment" for why I called you a hypocrite. If you want to drop the whole thing and forget about it, then that's fine by me too. But if you insult me, I won't just ignore it.
TELLEM said on 20/Apr/09
Look at the sly page and see how many insults you get. those aren't compliments. Labeling me a hyporcrite, but thats what you've been accused of, and it clearly shows you are one. compared to viper? no. 99% on here would be glad if you just left for good. maybe their wish will come true.
RisingForce said on 20/Apr/09
You started this argument Tellem by saying that it was ridiculous for several posters like me, Hugh and Bam to say he should be upgraded to 5'11.75". You're just made because I pointed out that you're a hypocrite for calling Brando 5'8.75" but saying it was absurd to list Willis that exact.
TELLEM said on 20/Apr/09
what a joke. look how many insults you get on the stallone page. if thats what you call compliments then so be it. you call me a hypocrite, yet you're being accused of being one and you are one aswell, boy. keep it up though, you're only making yourself look more of a bigger joke each time.
RisingForce said on 17/Apr/09
Once again you're avoiding the subject, kid. It's no surprise because you really don't have a response. You're a hypocrite, that's clear and you didn't even try to argue that. I've seen far more posters compliment me than you so I find your post even more comical. There's a reason why you've been compared to Viper.
TELLEM said on 17/Apr/09
Rob, please delete any of risingforce's replies to me, i'm getting sick and tired of having to reply and argue with him. its getting pathetic.

why would i argue with an obsessed clown like yourself who thinks hes intelligent, but instead, time and time again makes himself look like a complete fool? you guessed my age bracket wrong risingforce. lets have a vote to see whos the biggest joke on here, and you'd be number 1. but keep posting though, i need someone that i can point at and laugh at here on celebheights.

RisingForce says on 15/Apr/09
Everything you post is ridiculous Tellem. You said it's ridiculous to state someone's height to the quarter inch, but you've done it yourself. How old are you?

coming from someone who regularly posts essays of sly's pathetic 5'10 estimate, i don't think too much about that. how old am i? thats confidential, this is celebheights.
glenn said on 16/Apr/09
ace-ive seen travolta look 5-11 to 6-2 in front of me,depending on the month or year.so i dont trust his footwear.
Ace said on 16/Apr/09
From that angle, they look utterly massive. Those are some of the biggest boots i have seen (although as risingforce said, they are near the same size as the one's vin diesel occasionally wears).
TELLEM said on 16/Apr/09
Ace: look at their shoes...willis has heels, and they seem bigger...look at willis boots: Click Here

Bam: look at willis' shoes and look at travolta's...travolta's look flatter than willis. willis has a heel going.
Hugh 190cm said on 16/Apr/09
That photo that bam totally backs up Glenn's 6ft1 claims for Willis.
Hugh 190cm said on 16/Apr/09
Willis isn't even standing straight and he's over an inch taller than Uma Thurman.
Hugh 190cm said on 16/Apr/09
From that picture I estimate Willis to be 6ft0.5, Travolta to be 6ft1.5-6ft2, Uma Thurman to be 5ft11-5ft11.5 and Big Sam at roughly 6ft3.
Doug said on 16/Apr/09
Hugh you say Willis looked 6'1" flat. I don'y follow. How could he be 6'1" if Arnie was only 6'1.5" peak??? In most pictures Arnie has 2-3 inches on Willis.
bam said on 16/Apr/09
actually 5'11.75 is logical. That would make the man 1/2 inch shorter than travolta in pulp fiction (assuming travolta stood at his 6'0.25). This difference appear to be an inch or slightly over when willis slouched.(which is always)

take this pic for instance

this listing is spot on. just watch striking distance, 5'11.75 is a joke.
TELLEM said on 15/Apr/09
RisingForce says on 14/Apr/09
Well think about it, if he looks 5'11.5" to you and there's he keeps getting listed at an exact figure of 5'11.75", wouldn't you think that the 5'11.75" figure might come from somewhere. You pegged Marlon Brando at 5'8.75" because of a 5'8.75" figure being stated in a biography so you sound hypocritical now saying that stating someone's height to the quarter inch is ridiculous. If a precise figure for someone like that keeps coming up and you think he looks in that range then what's wrong with that?

were not talking about marlon brando, were talking about bruce willis. go eat some food man. ur obsession to this site is ridiculous.
DejaVu said on 15/Apr/09
He was an inch max shorter than John Travolta in Pulp Fiction. I think the listing is spot on.

you might aswell say 6'0 risingforce...if your going with .75...thats a quarter...thats ridiculous.
RisingForce said on 13/Apr/09
Tellem, how would that be a terrible upgrade? He gets listed at 5'11.75" on a lot of sites. How can you say he looks 5'11.5", but not 5'11.75"? You can tell a 1/4 inch difference from pictures?
TELLEM said on 12/Apr/09
thats a terrible upgrade...leave him at 5'11.5...lol @ 5'11.75...the guy is 5'11.5...hell, he looked just about the same height as 5'11 tom sizemore in "striking distance" and shorter than 6'0.5 dennis farina...that movie does one thing good: it exposes willis' height
Hugh 190cm said on 12/Apr/09
I could've sworn he was 6ft1 flat in the 80's though.
RisingForce said on 12/Apr/09
Willis actually does get listed on a lot of sites at 5'11.75", Hugh. So I agree, that'd be a good upgrade for now.
Hugh 190cm said on 11/Apr/09
Rob I think for the sake of height you should give Willis 5ft11.75?
Hugh 190cm said on 11/Apr/09
Okay 6ft1 might be stretching a little. But close either way. 184cm? Still looks very close to 6ft and possibly 6ft flat with excellent posture.
Doug said on 11/Apr/09
I think he was grazing the 6' barefoot at peak. Now, 5 ft 11.5. This means he regularly pulls off 6'1" which is often how he appears. The reason why I don't think a legit 6'1". Well the evidence is there with Arnie in the 80s, and more recent pics with 5'10" ladies in small heels where he is shorter than them and was a good 3-4 inches shorter than 6'2" listed Gabrielle Aubry. He can't be anything over 6' barefoot evne though he often looks 6'1" which legit 5'11.5"ers mostly do. Would be interesting to see how Bruce Willis and Leo DiCaprio and Vin Diesel measure up. In my view all three men are exactly 5'11.5" and will appear as 6'1" in good boots.
RisingForce said on 11/Apr/09
The boots don't look that ridiculous to me. Brad, you're clearly exaggerating, there's no way those are bigger than Vin Diesel's Frankenstein boots.
bam said on 11/Apr/09
i think without the boots willis is identical in height to travolta. Both 6'0.5
Ace said on 10/Apr/09
Those are, at least at first look, some massive boots.
Brad said on 9/Apr/09
Those are without question the biggest boots I've ever seen on this site.
TELLEM said on 9/Apr/09
ppl on here were saying that bruce willis never wears height enhanced footwear...well what do u call these? Click Here

hes taller than travolta in huge boots

Long is almost everywhere listed 5'8.5". Doesn't mean he is though, but could be.

Yes google search results in a lot of 5
RisingForce said on 7/Apr/09
Does anyone know where the 5'11.75" listings all over the internet come from?
Sterling said on 7/Apr/09
With shoes on I am just over 5' 11". When Planet Hollywood opened on the boardwalk in Atlantic City, I went up there to take a look. I found myself leaning against the rail next to a bald guy wearing cowboy boots, jeans and a sport coat. He certainly looked like Willis, who was in town to promote the club. I had no intention of speaking to him, but he seemed to think I was about to, so he walked back inside. As I watched him cross the boardwalk, I was surprised he was no bigger than I am. On the other hand, I stood next to bodybuilder Lou Ferigno the day he won Mr. Teenage America in Asbury Park, NJ, around 1970, and he was huge, barefoot on the beach. I also saw Pres. Kennedy at the Army/Navy game, tall, and Nixon, around my height. But I was standing on a huge rock looking down at Nixon as he walked by with his guards.
bam said on 5/Apr/09
the chris tucker pic is insane. He was taller than tucker in the 5th element. I figured it must have been an illusion. I guess willis is 6ft min.
Alex2401 said on 3/Apr/09
Bruce is 5'11 at his best.Plenty of evidence.
Doug said on 2/Apr/09
I think 5 ft 11.5 is exactly correct. Legit 5'11/5'11.5" guys can regularly look 6'1" in good shoes and good posture.
Hugh 190cm said on 31/Mar/09
TELLEM I think Farina might actually have been a bit taller than 6ft1 in his prime.
Dural said on 31/Mar/09
Long is almost everywhere listed 5'8.5". Doesn't mean he is though, but could be.
TELLEM said on 30/Mar/09
so last night i watched 2 bruce willis movies...3 things i noticed...the 1st, in twelve monkeys he was about 1.5-2 inches taller than 5'10 brad pitt...2nd, i also noticed that his mugshot had him at "72", meaning 6'0. and 3rd, in striking distance he was about 1-1.5 inch shorter than 6'0.5-6'1 dennis farina.
ace said on 28/Mar/09
Forgot about Olyphant. Good point James.
Ace said on 26/Mar/09
It is very possible that Bruce is over 5`11.5, but the main people who are holding him back are:
-David Schwimmer (who glenn claims is closer to 6`2 however, which would make bruce about 6`0)
-Kevin Costner
-Emma Hemming
-Justin Long
-Cybil Shepard
-Matthew Perry
glenn said on 26/Mar/09
he was behind him,no ace?
RisingForce said on 26/Mar/09
IF Emma Hemming is 5'10" flat then Bruce doesn't seem 6'1". But her height is a mystery. She's not a major celebrity with a lot of pictures/in person estimates to go by. Plus she's a tall woman and tall women often say they're shorter than they are. I don't know how tall Bruce is but I won't base how tall I think he is on pictures with a woman whose height is unknown.
Ace said on 25/Mar/09
Glenn, how was it a bad shot to judge. It is a more or less head on shot, not tilted, and shows two men standing side by side. It doesn't seem that bad to me.
glenn said on 25/Mar/09
antonio-i found the pic you were talking about immediately.however,i couldnt find the page we discussed leonards height on.lol.your right,he barely looks 5-8.even smaller.i always said one time or old encounter are not good for height.i haven't seen him since 1990.and i was 5-7 then with flat shoes.maybe he was 5-8 with thick sneakers?
glenn said on 25/Mar/09
antonio-if you only knew.i see the 2 of them all the time.giants.of course with her heels.you seem like a nice guy and im not trying to argue with you.honestly.
Antonio said on 24/Mar/09
If Emma Henning is truly 5-10, then Bruce is 5-10 at best.
glenn said on 24/Mar/09
im sorry,but that simmons photo is bad to judge.simmons is 5-10 min.i use to think 5-9 myself.claims 5-11.and travolta is a bad one to go with cause i still see him go from 5-11 to 6-1 and was 6-2 at the pulp fiction premiere i was at.
Scorb said on 24/Mar/09
6-0 peak and 5-11 now.
damon said on 23/Mar/09
looks about 2 inches shorter than 5'10 emma henning - who is not even wearing very high heels.

Ace said on 23/Mar/09
Risingforce, he doesn't look 5`11 here: Click Here
Heck, he looks like he's struggling with 5`10.5 there. And judging from Russell's shorter inseam, i doubt russell is wearing any lifts.
TELLEM said on 23/Mar/09
was looking at an old back cover of pulp fiction which showed sam jackson, uma, travolta and willis...willis and travolta standing side by side, willis was .5 inch shorter than john travolta...

Petra side by side by the beach said it all: as listed with posture.

When does Willis look under 5'11"? I don't remember seeing him look under 5'11".
dmeyer said on 22/Mar/09
willis 5 ft 11 peak and looking 6 ft with impecable posture a lidl heel and now 5 ft 10.25 he looks under 5ft 11 in a lot of pics lately

i met kutcher twice i am closer to his height at 5 ft 11 than willis is
-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ said on 21/Mar/09
Willis between 6ft and 6ft1 resoectively.
ace said on 21/Mar/09
Alex2401 the difference was usually a little more than 1 inch. More like 1.5-2 inches. Not quite the 3 inches some will claim, but more than just 1 flat inch.
RisingForce said on 21/Mar/09
Arnie was 6'2" back when most of the pictures with Bruce were taken.
glenn said on 21/Mar/09
hugh2.now im even more confused.lol.
Alex2401 said on 20/Mar/09
Bruce can't be 6'0 or 6'1 because Schwarzenegger is 6'0 and Bruce is 1 inch shorter
on every single pic.
ace said on 20/Mar/09
One other little problem with bruce at 6`1. Ashton Kutcher is around 6`2.5. Some will say 6`3, but he really doesn't look quite that tall. Bruce really doesn't look 1.5 inches shorter either: Click Here
Also, if you notice, ashton has a pavement disadvantage.
Hugh2 said on 20/Mar/09
Glenn I'm using the artwork so I don't confuse people. There is another Hugh on this site. BTW I'm still going with 6ft1 for Willis.
Brad said on 20/Mar/09
Throw up Petra and Bruce barefoot side by side from months before. That one is great. He isn't close to 6' 1".
Ace said on 19/Mar/09
One thing about you glenn that really does tilt everything in your favor is that you actually meet them. All we can do is use photo evidence which is only somewhat reliable at best. although i am not convinced bruce is 6`1, having you say he is really does make me question a lot.
Clay said on 19/Mar/09
That was just a bizarre camera angle in the Snoop/Kutcher pic, just look Snoop Dogg looked a lot shorter than 6'5-6'5.5 Matt Leinart, when really there isnt much between them.
glenn said on 19/Mar/09
oh,i forgot.petra was barefoot in those pics.he still looks not a hair shorter than 6ft next to that other amazon that is in heels too.6-1 it is.he says it.i see it for 20 years in the flesh.native new yorker.yet people come up with their own fantasies here.nothing against you ace.seriously.
glenn said on 18/Mar/09
thanks shredder.
glenn said on 18/Mar/09
thank you ace for backing my theory.i respect your opinions on bruce.more so now that you see my point that photos are deceiving.full body or not.even in the flesh ive been fooled.snoop is not a hair under 6-4.some say 6-5,but i dont buy it.hey,maybe he is.that would explain the ashton pic more.ashton was always 6-3 to me.so i give ashton 6-2.5 now.possible 6-2.
Ace said on 18/Mar/09
Then again... there is always this photo: Click Here
Arnold in converse, giving about .6 inches.
Willis is sandals, that look to give about .5-.75 inches.
Stallone in... who knows. Its impossible to tell what stallone's heels give (since he never stops wearing lifts)!
It would seem that the difference between arnold and willis is about 1.5-2 inches. This would seem to say that willis is somewhere between 5`11.5-6`0.
Ace said on 18/Mar/09

that photo with snoop dogg and kutcher was a FULL BODY SHOT photo, which makes me wonder about kutcher being "6'2"

Tellem, there were about 4 other pictures from the same day that showed Bruce the same height or taller.

6'1 is possible , he claims it and glenn sees him that !
TELLEM said on 17/Mar/09
you mean this one? denzel and bruce: Click Here
Clay said on 17/Mar/09
Why is no one mentioning Willis looking taller than 6'0.5 Denzel Washington?
ace said on 17/Mar/09
It looked about 1.5 inches between bruce and kevin costner. Although glenn does have a point, when kutcher was with snoop dogg, kutcher really didn't even look like he quite touched 6`0. Photos really can be tough thing to trust. After any number of illusions can occur. All one has to do is look in a book which demonstrates optical illusions, and you can see just how easy it is to make a mistake. I still believe though that willis is somewhere between 5`11.25-5`11.75. I certainly wouldn't rule out 6`0 though.
Doug said on 17/Mar/09
If Willis is a legit 6'1", then Aubry is around 6'4". I think Willis has often looked nearer 6'1" but I think 6' flat is a good estimate. Any estimats on how tall Aubry really is? Have a look at some of the photos on google and Aubry would seem to have at least 3 inches on Willis.
Doug said on 17/Mar/09
Willis was minimum 3 inches shorter than Halle Berry's bloke Gabriel Aubry. Aubry is listed at 6'2" although it is obvious this is a model downgrading where 6'2" is seen as optimum and the guy is a legit 6'3" and looks it. If Aubry is 6'3" then Bruce is around 6' as I've always thought of him. If Gabriel Aubry is just 6'2" then Willis is actually nearer 5'10.5"-5'11" which I'm sure most will agree is TOO low. Could somebody start a page for Gabriel Aubry? It would also help continue the Halle Berry debate.
RisingForce said on 16/Mar/09
That wasn't a 2 inch difference between Willis and Costner. 1", maybe 1.5" at the most.
glenn said on 16/Mar/09
yes,james he got caught.just like ashton kutcher looking 6-1 next to snoop dogg when he is not.
Brad said on 16/Mar/09
No James, he got caught.
glenn said on 16/Mar/09
im fine with 6ft for willis.but he really is most likely 6-1.im really confident with that.he isnt a hair under 6ft.
glenn said on 15/Mar/09
i like how hugh said 6-1 for awhile.could you leave the artwork out your name hugh? i though rob and i discussed this.rob brought it up first.not to sound weird or like a dick,it does irritate my eyes for a second.if there is a another hugh still around,he will have to change his to hugh2.
TELLEM said on 15/Mar/09
except ashton kutcher was MUCH shorter than 6'4 snoop dogg
-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ said on 15/Mar/09
In movies like Die Hard, Mercury Rising and Sixth Sense he comes off as a solid 6ft guy. I'd say 5ft11.75 is more accurate. No less than 182cm anyway.
Daniel said on 14/Mar/09
Maybe Willis has shrunk to 6ft by now, but he sure looked 6'1'' peak when younger 20 years ago.
\\-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ said on 14/Mar/09
Ben Affleck is not 6ft1. He's 6ft2.5.
RisingForce said on 14/Mar/09
Killer lift boots? How do you know Bruce had lifts? Could you see inside his shoes? Just because someone is wearing heels it doesn't mean they're wearing lifts. I wear boots with heels as big as Bruce's and I don't have lifts in them.

Edd, that's a horrible comparison. Ben Affleck is listed 6'2.5" here and Casey at 5'8.25". Mamun is 5'8.25" himself so Bruce shouldn't look near that much taller unless someone is claiming Bruce is 6'2.5"? Ben's posture is also superior to Bruce's.
edd said on 14/Mar/09
compare this photo of the affleck brothers, and you will see what a real 6.1 guy looks like next to a 5.8 or 5.9 guy...and compare this to the photo of Willis and Mamun above... see the difference?

glenn said on 14/Mar/09
mos def is 5-10.and colin farrell is 5-11.either way 5-10.5 for bruce willis based on those pics doesnt add up.
edd said on 13/Mar/09
yes ace...no way a 6.1 guy (barefoot) is even close to that even if he was slouching... he is 5.10.5 barefoot but toss some healthy shoes on him and he looks an easy 6.0.5 or even 6.1 in some cases... but never more than that. Look at it another way, if he truely was 6.1 (which he is not) then those killer lift boots in Moonlighting would have made him 6.4.. no way. Selleck is a true 6.4, or was in his peak. Remember he played hoops at USC and that was what he was listed at.
mikec said on 13/Mar/09
bruce willis is 6ft not 6'1... looks 6'1 yes of course, but is 6ft, proof= Click Here with matt perry has .75- .5" on him.(he is 5'11.5)

Great photo ace. He got caught.
ace said on 13/Mar/09
I have to admit clay, bruce doesn't even look 5`11 here: Click Here
He looks max 5`10.5.
Question: How does a 5`9.5 guy look the same as a 6`1 guy? If you look at their inseems, bruce's actually seems to be longer than Russell's (granted russell is wearing his pants down a bit though), so that does rule out the use of any major lifts by russell.
Fact is, he looks nowhere near 6`1.
ace said on 13/Mar/09
Rob G, if schwimmer is 6`2, that would make tom selleck 6`4.5-6`5. There was only about 2.5-3 inches between the two of them.
TELLEM said on 13/Mar/09
why should edd stop? let the man state his opinion. if he believes 5'10.5, then let him believe it.
Clay said on 13/Mar/09
Glenn is saying 6'1 not 6'2, but that being around Bruce is how a 6'2 guy comes off. Edd, you need to stop with this 5'10.5 rubbish, quick!
Rob G said on 13/Mar/09
Off topic a little: Schwimmer at 6'2" makes Tom Selleck scraping the 6'6" mark in Friends, and we know he was never so tall.
With Damon Watanas Willis looks to me about 1,5 inch shorter, maybe 2 inches
Brad said on 13/Mar/09
I guess Matt is 6' 2". Jon Lovitz: :"Yeh, that's right".
RisingForce said on 13/Mar/09
Frank, Bruce was taller than Hanks by atleast half an inch.

I have no idea how tall Timothy is Tellem.

Ace, he rarely looks 5'11" flat and he often looks shorter than he is because his posture is bad.
mId said on 12/Mar/09
I like glenn but this is one celeb I have a hard time seeing at 6' before bed.. the friends episode (when they are in bruce's cabin) is on youtube and schwimmer looks about 2" taller than bruce to me. I don't think schwimmer is a full 6'2.. atleast not before bed.. I would call him a 6'1".. maybe even 6'0.5" before bed. just my guess.
Alex said on 12/Mar/09
Bruce's height is all over. He's looking as low as 5'11 and as high as 6'0-6'1. Hanks isn't 6'0 today. More like 5'11 but a 6'0 peak for Tom.
GUK said on 12/Mar/09
Why was he so much shorter than 6ft 2 Richard E Grant. It's not an inch, and it looked to be over 2 inches. Sandra Bernhart, was taller in 2 inch heals and she's 5ft 10. I think Rob has this about right
edd said on 12/Mar/09
yes the Schwimmer photo, and Bruce is in a suit with heels...Schwimmer wearing casual clothes and tennys... the other telling photo is Matt Damon looking taller than Bruce... how could a "5.9" guy look taller than a "6.1" guy? Well it simply does not happen. The reality is that 5.9.5 Damon is looking taller than 5.10.5 Willis... with a probably footwear edge... but beyond that, everyone needs to remember that we are talking barefoot heights here, not with whatever footwear they have on that day. Plenty of these photos show Willis in the same height range as Matt Damon, Clooney, Sly etc... while getting owned by Schwimmer and Costner.
Clay said on 12/Mar/09
Except Schwimmer is probably 6'2, so don't enjoy it too much. :)
the shredder said on 12/Mar/09
