Burn could be a touch over 5ft9, but having said that, he is busting with all his might to look as tall as his stature allows.
5ft9. 🔥

5'8.75" max. Seems to me that lots of posters here were fooled by the hat in the 2nd and 3rd pics.

just an example of a solid 5'9.0 guy I find it hard to find someone who is exactly 5 5.5 5.75 6.0 foot exactly on the dot but he is one of them. 5.75 feet on the dot no more.

Looks ridiculous in the left photo. Why do people Bust a Gut it just makes you look ridiculous, put your shoulders back and stand tall by all means but don't look like you're trying to touch the ceiling.
Looks 5'9.5 maybe but he's literally squeezing every mm of height he can and raising his eye level. 5'9 flat is about right.

Hmmm,can look a good 0.75" taller rather than 1-1.25 after all since his hairstyle seems thicker than what I first expected.Yeah,height aware guy,although quite honest,perhaps a little under 5'9 likely 174,5cm without Busting a Gut.

Rob, since Gorman was tiny bit shorter than your dad (5'8.8) in person comparison with you so why didn't you downgrade him to 5'8.75"? I'm just curious.

Editor RobGorman is a very height-aware actor, one of the few I ever seen doing Bust a Gut for photos, so he might measure 5ft 9 in fact doing that!

Editor RobWell, if you are 5ft 9.5 you would look taller if you stood the same. If you stood normally without forced posture and he stood at measured height you might not look much different.

On the left pic he could look a strong 176 but he's slightly raising his head so more like a good 5'9 maybe no more than a flat 5'9 if not Busting a Gut.

You guys must be height blind, if he were truly 5'9, you'd see no difference height wise, he's 5'10 at least.
Editor Rob
Burn has a thicker hairstyle, as shown in a previous comparison. Compared to my Dad who was a proven 5ft 8.8 here: Click Here, would anybody say he was actually taller, let alone 1.2 inches taller.
Even a 1 and 3/8th inch difference can look more, like With Sister, who is 5ft 9 5/8th in heels there.

He looks nowhere near 5'10, even in the new photo... He really doesn't look much different than how Rob looks with his dad (in the HC)... Plus, as Rob says, this guys is standing as tall as possible! He might be the 5'9 version of Stephen Amell, 5'8.5-5'8.75 barefoot and can pull off a decent 5'9 with perfect posture?
I do remember this guy from GOT but i never really paid attention to his height, he probably looked quite average in the show...
I think he was listed at 5'8.75 at some point on here but for some reason he got the full 5'9...

Editor Rob he perfected a 'breathe in' pose, it is a good way to maximise your stance, what Sly and Vin Diesel might do at times.

He looks 5'10 in the new photo!!!??? wow. I really can't see him under 5'9 Rob. Unless you are losing 1 inch in posture, he is over 5'9.

Editor Rob well he's standing military (having breathed in before every photo), plus his hairstyle is nearly a cm thicker than a normal flatter style he sometimes wears, like mine.
In fact his thicker hair looks in line with my Dad's thinner hairstyle (and he's under 5ft 9 here having just been measured before the photo so his hair isn't anywhere near as thick as Burn's): Click here.

@ Kourosh
Plus you can tell by their heads in front of the mirrior I raised the measuring tape to where 5'8 1/8ths out of curiousity and burn Gorman appears to be what my possible abosulute low height would be which is 5'8 3/4 or 5'8 7/8ths I might of slouched in the measurement like I'm basically doing it myself so I might lose an little. If he was 5'9 3/4 there would be an bigger difference, even with the eyes though they look basically about an inch maybe less, and there postures are not entirely even like he is trying to get too his tallest height and Rob is lowering his head an little and is more laid back.

Editor Rob low sneaker like me, he had converse that day, an extra fraction posture before each photo, still I'd say he measures 5ft 8.75-9 range, he looks smaller than jenny's 5ft 9 and a little sister in person.
Bakara said on 30/Jun/15
so you're saying he has a louzy posture and stretches to 'real hight' or that he stretches beyond his height, like a high heel?

Editor Rob imagine you are getting measured and almost raising forward onto your front toes, but not actually going up on them.

Editor Rob Burn has a technique in photos. He stands normally and just before the photographer snaps he stretches to what would be his measured height.
