You're Welcome Rampage! Yeah i agree with you on Connery being 189 but 188 is fair no less though. Anyway about Hugh i'd put him at 6ft 1.75 lowest 6ft 1.5. And actually he is like Jon Hamm both 1-.5 inch apart from their claim...
Andrea said on 2/Oct/14
Everybody? Tell me who and i will reply with evidence... One thing, Hugh Jackman is not 6'2, then if you wanna believe that, you're free to do that :)
Arch Stanton said on 2/Oct/14
I spoke too soon on Andrea. Andrea you're downgrading everybody now hehe!!
Dejavu said on 1/Oct/14
He looks 6'2 legit next to 6'4.5-6'5 Barkley
Lillo thomas said on 1/Oct/14
Sorry Hugh Jackman but you never look 6'3 . To claim this height is silly. You never looked taller than 6'1 range. You should wear lifts to look 6'3.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Oct/14
Thank you all!

@Mike, at least we can agree on Connery being a strong 6ft2. I think his claim was something like "I'm 6ft2/3" or words to that effect. I think he can look that at times but 6ft2 flat is fine aswell. Put it this way, he's not like Jon Hamm
James B said on 1/Oct/14
He looked an easy 6'2 compared to travolta
Sam said on 1/Oct/14
I think the 6'3" claims I've heard from strangers are from people seeing a celeb who is tall rather than shorter than expected and are looking up at the guy on a slanting sidewalk or something.

Another guy between 6'1 and 6'2 who enjoys rounding up to 6'3...

rampage is right, he claims to be 6'3, 2-3 times in this interview
mike said on 30/Sep/14
Welcome back Rampage! Still don't agree with you on Jackman being 188-189 legit 188-189ers are people like Sean Connery or Samuel L. Jackson. I never heard him claim 6ft 3 always been 6ft 2 but i think he did claim 6ft 2.5?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 29/Sep/14
Could have sworn I heard him claim 6ft3 somewhere
James B said on 19/Sep/14
Jackman is a strong 6'1.5 so 6'1.75 is accurate
Andrea said on 18/Sep/14
To be fair, i'd be surprised if he were 6'2!

PCMR said on 13/Sep/14
I'd say 186cm barefoot in the evening and 188cm in shoes/morning height.
Tim said on 9/Sep/14
6-1.5 at best
184.9 on a bad day said on 29/Aug/14
186 is laughable the guy is in the 187.5- 188 range and I will not surprising if he's solid 188.
Dejavu said on 28/Aug/14
That was travolta in swordfish which was over 10 years ago.
MrHouse said on 27/Aug/14
prime example of a strong 186cm in barefeet - the 188cm claim is his height in dress shoes, flat sneakers etc.
Realist said on 8/Aug/14
No more than 187, 190-91 Nicholas Hoult has him by an inch or more.
James B said on 3/Aug/14
Travolta looked same height as david beckham
James B said on 22/Jul/14
Yeah he did look 6'2 1/2 with travolta
Dave618 said on 20/Jul/14
Just saw him stand quite close with Michael Fassbneder on The Graham Norton show, which we get here in America on BBC America. It looked like Hugh had an inch or so on Michael, maybe 2 inches. If Fassbender is a legit 5'11", I think Jackman is between 6'1" and 6'2". He, like me, probably is a legit 6'2" in the AM, barefoot, then loses a half inch or so during the day. So I'd say he has a legit claim to say he's 6'2", if he in does fact measure that at some point during the day.
Dejavu said on 14/Jul/14
Hugh Jackman made John Travolta look 5'11 a few years ago. He looks 6'2 on the dot and the lowest you can argue is 6'1.75 and nothing lower.
Guy said on 7/Jul/14
He looks between 185 and 186

Dejavu said on 21/Jun/14
I think he is a legit 6'2. Nothing below or above. I thought he looked a clear inch above kevin costner.
Sam said on 16/Jun/14
In certain shots of X Men: Days of Future Past, yeah Nicholas Hoult looks taller but others they look virtually the same. In the scene where they're walking into Cerebro (sp?) behind Charles, they're walking together and look very even.
Andrea said on 13/Jun/14
I doubt he's even a mm over 6'2... 6'1.5 is a good guess, he just doesnt look over that a lot of times, just look at him with Brandon Routh who is a legit 189 guy... He's at least an inch shorter!
James B said on 13/Jun/14
Mr. R says on 10/Jun/14
Hugh is a little over 6-2.

Every site needs a joker :)

Mr. R said on 10/Jun/14
Hugh is a little over 6-2.
cole said on 8/Jun/14
Guys like Christian Bale, Bradley Cooper and Russell Crowe can look a little taller than their listed heights with Jackman if he's indeed 6'2. I'd say he mostly looks just 6'1.5, and is pretty much equal to 6'1.25 Adrian Peterson in that full body shot posted here. 6'1.25 or 6'1.5 would be within my estimate zone for him, 6'1.75 at most, can't see him as a legit 6'2 guy. Koncking off a half inch from this listing is something that should be on Rob's "to do list". Also, I think I've pointed this out before, but the picture of him and 5'10.5 Nicole Kidman in heels at the top of the page here isn't really helping his 6'2 claim too much either...

Jackman can look 6ft 1.5 a good chunk of time, it isn't rule out he's a weak 6ft 2
Dmeyer said on 17/May/14
6ft1.5 no more
ElRaloir said on 10/May/14
With Dolph Ziggler and Damien Sandow. The horizontal lines were made to be parallel to the ropes (which we know are actually horizontal) and to give an idea of heights. With footwear taken into consideration and taking Ziggler as 6'0" tall, this puts Jackman at 6'1.5" and Sandow at roughly 6'3" (give or take half an inch for both). Click Here
SaveUsY2J said on 9/May/14
Jackman's leaning in a bit and Sheamus is nearer the camera. If both of those factors were removed I'd see a solid inches' difference
Arch Stanton said on 9/May/14
I think he generally looks around this but Sacha Baron Cohen did have 2 inches on him is Les Miserables, but I suspect he's more 6'3.5".
ElRaloir said on 5/May/14
With 6'3" Sheamus

With solid 6'7 Lebron James: Click Here
He is much closer to the camera but still gets dwarfed, so unless Lebron is wearing heels, i really doubt he's 6'2 ;)

actually that looks like a 6 inch difference so a weak 6'2 may be possible.
cole said on 28/Apr/14
He's probably rounding up a little with his 6'2 claim, he can look 186-187 cm range a lot.
James B said on 17/Apr/14
Obviously 6'0 1/2 is impossible for jackman right rob? The lowest I would argue for Hugh is 6'1 but that's just my opinion.
Editor Rob
you can argue 6ft 1.5 for him
Andrea said on 17/Apr/14

With James looks 6'0.5 a 5.5 inch difference is what I see in the photo.
Editor Rob
with loose posture he can look not much more than 6ft, although mcAvoy might at times have thick boots with g-lifts® in them.
James B said on 13/Apr/14
In swordfish looked 6'2 compared to john travolta
James B said on 8/Apr/14
To be fair with 6'3-6'4 sacha baron Cohen hugh did look around 6'2.

With the 5'7 guy hugh looks 6'1 max.
Peyman said on 6/Apr/14
he is too short to think he is 6ft 2in
6ft 1in at best
Sam said on 3/Apr/14
Someone who saw him once told me he thought he was 6'3", obviously not the case. Perhaps it was just seeing a celeb in NYC that wasn't shorter than they seemed on screen. Jackman strikes me a true 6'2" guy, nothing over, maybe 189-187 cm range morning to night.
James B said on 31/Mar/14
Doesn't look a legit 188cm to me
dejavu said on 31/Mar/14
I think he is a legit 188cm. 187 at the absolute minimum
vtec said on 26/Mar/14
shorter than gerard butler in pics
James B said on 12/Mar/14
Maybe it is because he wears thinner shoes but honestly he looks like a legit 6'1 guy not a 6'2 guy though. Certainly he gives a shorter impression in his movies than 6'2 actor like Tom Everett. Jackson to me looks around the same height as vinnie jones.
King said on 6/Feb/14
He has short face compared to Kidman.

geniunley looks close to 6'2.

188 is absolutely max for him. My guess is 187 cm.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Jan/14
Nearer 189cm than 187cm
Lenad said on 1/Jan/14
he's probably closer to 6'2 than 6'1.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Dec/13
6ft2 flat at his lowest
Arch Stanton said on 25/Dec/13
He does look about an inch shorter than Prince William in comparison to a heeled Kidman in the above photo.
Lenad said on 25/Dec/13
I still doubt he's over 6'2 but he's probably nearer 188 than 186
Jordan said on 23/Dec/13
Stop downgrading this guy. He's a legit 6'2", 6'1.75" at his lowest
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 23/Dec/13
Doesn't dip under 188cm at night and most likely pushing 6ft3 upon waking.
He looks about 3in taller than 50 Cent and he's slouching with Reynolds.
spainmen said on 22/Dec/13
Rob,do you think ke might be 187 cm more than 6ft2?
Lenad said on 22/Dec/13
there are many people who say there are 6'2 and could be a fraction over or under that mark and I think Jackman is one of them. 188cm is probably his out of bed height!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Dec/13
In that picture

Hugh Jackman 6ft2.25(189cm)
50 Cent 5ft11.5(182cm)
Lenad said on 17/Dec/13
solid 187cm is my bet. I can buy a full 6'2 but not more
Lenad said on 13/Dec/13
I think he's a weak 6'2.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 9/Dec/13
He's a full 6ft2/188cm at the very least.
5'11 said on 6/Dec/13
Why does Hugh Jackman look shorter than Jim Carrey in that image if he is really 6'1.5? 6'1 at best!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5/Dec/13
The man is 6ft2-6ft3 and 96kg of pure muscle.
Ryan Reynolds is 6ft1-6ft2 and a leaner 90kg.
Realist said on 3/Dec/13
He is 6'0.75-6'1.25.No more No less. Like every other actor he is increasing his height by an inch.
Linebacker28 said on 1/Dec/13
Solid 6'1.5" sounds right for me after seeing him in The Wolverine. Always looks strongly tall in his films, like Connery did during his Bond tenure. Likely both were the same height at peak.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Nov/13
Well actually for years it was quite the opposite. The taller guys were passed over because they were " too intimidating' to be leading men. Look at Rock Hudson and Gregory Peck. Both of them downplayed their stature.

Really, the taller the better.
PLB said on 24/Nov/13
There was a study years ago in an industrial psychology journal that claimed that 6'2" was the optimum height for men. They adjusted the footwear of various subjects and sent them into job interviews. Taller or shorter than 6'2" hurt your chances at being hired.

There are lots of bogus studies of course, but this one seems plausible. I would venture that 6'2" is near optimum for male models and for male movie stars. I think casting directors want their male stars to look like Hugh Jackman, Ryan Rosling, Pierce Brosnan, or Richard Armitrage. The optimum male movie star is about 6''2" and not afraid to take his shirt off.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Nov/13
I stand by my 188-89cm. He opts for flatter shoes than Reynolds.

His range is from 6ft2-2.75in throughout the day.
kevin said on 12/Nov/13
my guess would be 6ft and 1.75in.
Gambit said on 12/Nov/13
I guess Jackman would be 187cm before bed, possible Rob ?
Editor Rob
yeah it's possible he could dip a little bit below 188 at night.
Silent d said on 21/Oct/13
Solid 6 foot 2.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Oct/13
Rob, was Jackman originally listed 6ft2.5 here?
Bakura said on 14/Oct/13
Sorry Rampage, but I have to ask, why do you, like almost everyone else on this site, believe everything Mr. R says? He has no proof whatsoever that he's met any of the people he claims to, and none of his estimates make any sense in light of what all other evidence tells us. There is no way NPH is 6'1, Ruffalo is 5'6, or Geoffrey Rush is sub-5'10 range, etc. My guess is he's a fraud who desperately wants attention and his finally found an outlet for it.

As for Jackman, though, I'd say a flat 6'2 is right for him.
Rusty said on 14/Oct/13
Funny how this guy used to be billed as 6'3" on the four letter site then on this site I first saw 6'2.5" then 6'2.25" and now 6'2" flat.
Dejavu said on 12/Oct/13
6'2 is fair. He could be a tiny tad under but definitely not under 187cm.
cole said on 8/Oct/13
Rob are you considering a slight downgrade for Jackman? He does look a little shorter than Ryan Reynolds. He also looks a bit more than just 3 cm shorter than Sacha Baron Choen imo.
Kyuss said on 5/Oct/13
Nicole must be around 6-2" in those heels,hugh is a tiny biy taller here 1" approx in those shoes,he must be very close to 6-2" flat.
Sam said on 3/Oct/13
I think it's a stretch to say it "doesnt mean anything" to see celebrities in person...of course, some people are less reliable than others. However, there's a lot of variables at play and I don't think griping over sightings you think are off an inch or a half inch is necessary. When people add or subtract half a foot off a celeb, then its time to gripe.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Oct/13
He's a better judge than you, that's for sure
Balrog said on 3/Oct/13
Mr R also said that Chris Pine is 6'1" heading to 6'2" and Neil Patrick Harris is 6'1".

Jackman is a guy who wears thin shoes yeah but he doesn't look the full 6'2" most of the times a 6'1.5" listing would be perfect but 6'2" is possible aswell.
Brad said on 2/Oct/13
Nicole is 5'11". Jackman is 6'2". When looking at other photos people should remember that Jackman usually wears low profile shoes.
Lo sgozzatore said on 30/Sep/13
Seeing them in the flesh doesnt mean anything ;)
If you're a bad judge, that's just useless! Even Rob, sees them in person but i trust him. I know he's very precise. Even Dmeyer meets some of the celebrities and he's very precise too. Dont talk me about MR.R though... A guy who claims that Will Smith is close to 6'2 says it all ;) Rob met MC Gainey and he looked about 6'2 to him. Well, the same MC Gainey had one inch and change over Mr. Smith. So, someone's very bad at judging here, Rob or Mr.R... Guess what, i think that of MR.R ;)
As for Jackman, if you think he's a big 6'2 guy what would you guess Brandon Routh at? 6'3.5? And what about Lebron James? I guess 6'9 range? Naa, he might be 6'2 in the morning but in reality he's just between 6'1 and 6'2... And he just rounds up to 6'2!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Sep/13
@Lo sgozzatore: Well at least he sees them in the flesh. Have you?

Look it's just my opinion that he's more of a strong 6ft2 than a weak one. He can look 187cm at times due to posture or camera angles. But other times he can appear 6ft3. There really isn't much between him and Liev Schrieber
Lo sgozzatore said on 20/Sep/13
If he's 188-189 as you say, Brandon Routh is a 6'3 and change guy, Nicole Kidman between 5'11 and 6', Lebron James taller than his 6'7.25 measurement,... I really dont care what MR.R saw because he also saw Will Smith at 6'2, which is ridicolous and then he saw guys like Mark Ruffalo at 5'6... He downgrades the short guys and upgrade the tall ones!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 16/Sep/13
He's one of those tall guys who doesn't feel insecure about his height. I stand by 188-189cm and Reynolds is the exact opposite. He's a tall guy who wants that extra inch and chooses bigger shoes.

Mr. R thought he was 6ft2.5 and he usually sees these stars.
Lo sgozzatore said on 15/Sep/13
I'm not saying he's a weak 6'1. Just saying he looks max that next to Lebron James and even with Kidman up here. I dont think he's just that but i highly doubt he's a big 6'2 guy. This guy is at least, and i repeat, at least an inch under Brandon Routh, so my guess is 6'1.5... 6'2 yes, maybe, in the morning...
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Sep/13
Weak 6ft1 for Jackman is beyond a joke.
That makes Christian Bale about 5ft10.5, Reynolds under 6ft1 aswell, Schrieber 6ft1.25 and Russell Crowe 5ft9 range.

Nonsense
Lo sgozzatore said on 6/Sep/13
Yeah, dmeyer Weak 6'1 which is exactly what he looks with Lebron James! Im not sure he's that short, even if he can look that sometimes! But he's not a big 6'2 for sure, probably between 6'1 and 2. 6'1.5 is my guess, he really doesnt look over that with guys like Brandon Routh
dmeyer said on 3/Sep/13
rob nicole is about 5 ft 10.5 the shoes she has give max 2.25 in so about 185cm shoes on jackamn looks max 187cm shoes on minus solid 2.5-3cm shoes weak 6 ft 1 ,nicole should look this big in 3.5 inchers
kreyzig 6ft 3in said on 1/Sep/13
To me he looks fractionally taller than reynolds.So he is every bit of 6ft 2.
Connor 184cm said on 31/Aug/13
If hugh is 6ft 2 then nicole looks 6ft 0.5 with the heels shes wearing, id say 5ft 10.5 barefoot is a good shout for her.

Lo sgozzatore said on 23/Aug/13
Cole i agree! To be fair i wouldnt be surprised if he dipped below that mark! 186-187 is my guess. Have you seen him with Lebron James? He actually neither looks 6'1 next to him but we cant see their shoes and im giving him the benefit of doubt. 6'1.5 is closer than 6'2.
cole said on 21/Aug/13
I would say he's not quite 6'2. 187 cm range is a better shout imo.
Arch Stanton said on 18/Aug/13
Photographic proof above that Kidman is hitting 6'2 in heels. She barely looked shorter than Prince William!
Arch Stanton said on 18/Aug/13
Rob have you seen Les Miserables? Jackman looks 2 inches shorter than Sacha Baron Cohen.
Editor Rob
not seen it yet, sash can appear taller than 6ft 3 at times
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 29/Jul/13
He looked 6ft3 in Swordfish with Travolta (who might've been 184cm?).
So, I think 188cm is his lowest and 189cm is a possibility.

He'd have the edge over Reynolds (who might wear lifts) if they were both in normal heeled shoes.
Lorne said on 28/Jul/13
Let me reiterate I think he's legit. 6'2... Just saying I'd go with 187cm b4 I'd say 189. And to everyone looking at this photo: it is outside, that is skewing the difference on Kidman's favor. Man is he trick, though; With 182cm range Famke Jennsen, looks AT LEAST 188cm, with John Travolta can look /89cm, yet with guys like Routh, CAN look 187cm, looks 187-188cm with Liv S and Cohen, looks near enough 6'2 with Bale,(I consider Bale 5ft11.75) and in the above photo, is 187cm range, but it's outside... He is a tough one, but since he wears flat Adidas style a lot, and still looks 6'2 range most often, I'd have to say 188cm is fair...
Lorne said on 28/Jul/13
The above pic demonstrates why outside pics can be unreliable. As for his height, 187-188cm range, 6'2 is a good shout. Remember he wears flat shoes a lot, which can make him look a tad smaller than he is, though I could see him 6ft1.75in evening. He's tricky, looks easy 189cm in boots, other times he just doesn't look a big 6'2 guy. So this listing is fine, but they're is a better chance he's 6ft1.75 than 6ft2.25.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Jul/13

Mr. R said on 28/Jun/13
In one of these mags this month, I think Men's Health, he refers to himself as 6-2 and 170. But it does not say when he made that comment. He could have been referring to himself when he was younger.
Silent d said on 23/Jun/13
The heels look 2 iches in the above photo. Jackman only looks 6 foot 1 in the above photo but he is leaning in. I remember when he was next to elle mapherson in 4 inch heels and she was a little taller than him. 188cm.
Kyuss said on 23/Jun/13
ABC logic here with a 5-10.5 nicole is shes a min of 6.0.5" in those heels {2-3"} So hugh looks 1" taller so barefoot id have him at 6-1.5" he looks 6-2.5" in shoes here imo.
Sawyer03 said on 21/Jun/13
If that guy is not 6.2 then nobody is, some people in this forum are crazy to say he is just 6.0, come on look how big the guy looks in that picture, then look at a picture of Nicolaj Coster-Waldau or even Ryan Reynolds.
Lo sgozzatore said on 21/Jun/13
Yeah, big chance he's not over 6'1.5. Just look at him with Brandon Routh, he's at least one inch shorter...
cole said on 19/Jun/13
Rob, how would you explain the difference between Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman in the pic in the description? She seems to have a 2" (2.5"?) heel, making her 184-185 cm in footwear, and Jackman only looks 2-3 cm taller, so 187-188 cm in footwear? That doesn't make sense if you think Hugh is 188 cm barefoot. I recon he's more 6'1.5 (186-187 cm).
Rico said on 17/Jun/13
Rob, what do you think about the height of Hugh Jackman compared to Ben Affleck? They have lots of pictures together and they seem almost identical in height.
Taylor said on 5/Jun/13
Rob have you ever met Hugh Jackman before?
Editor Rob
not yet
Mr. R said on 4/Jun/13
Yeah, he is actually 6-2.5. I met Nicole and she is at least 5-11 without heels.
Cosette said on 3/Jun/13
From the pictures I see, he looks like he's at a 6'0.5"-6'1.5" range. But I think he's more like he's 6'1" exact from the photo above. Nicole is wearing 1 inch heels at 5'10.5" which makes her 5'11.5" and she only looks 1 inch shorter. This would put Hugh Jackman at 6'0.5".
Len said on 17/May/13
I'd guess 6'1" for Jackman, at most

Kidman's heels in that photo are not especially tall, she's probably 6'1" in that photo, and looks very close to Jackman in height there.

His dress shoes add an inch, so you could even argue that he's more like a strong 6'0".

Why do nearly all male Hollywood actors (and not a few female ones) *insist* on adding 2 inches to their heights? It's almost standard practice, it seems.
Dejavu said on 12/May/13
He is 6'2
johno said on 8/May/13
I believe reynolds edges him.

To me jackman is between 6'1 - 6'1.5
Linebacker28 said on 20/Apr/13
Can look 6'1", 6'2" and even 6'3" from time to time. I'd say a solid 6'1.5" is on the target.
Lenad said on 13/Apr/13
Kidmans heels probably give 4 inches. Plus hugh is leaning more. Barefoot i estimate 187cm
Balrog said on 8/Apr/13
I think Reynolds is more ecto than Jackman.
jimmy said on 4/Apr/13
Bron drops 1cm here but besides that he looks taller than Jackman does next to Lebron.And Kaka is only 6'1.5".

now,this is how a solid 6'2'' guy would look like! he could even be 6'2.5'' inches.i'd buy it.just look at how long his legs are in x-men origins:wolverine,especially at the scene just after he crashes down the helicopter.
jimmy said on 20/Mar/13
Either Lebron James is 6'8" as he claims or Hugh Jackman is not 6'2".He looks 6 good inches shorter than him.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Mar/13
Anything less than 188cm is a joke.
"Hugh Jackman height: 6ft 2.25in (189cm)"
James said on 27/Feb/13
Yeah he looks barely taller than cooper
penguinboy25 said on 24/Feb/13
6'1.5. He looks exactly 1 inch taller with Bradley Cooper. According to this site Cooper is 6'0.5 at best.
James said on 18/Feb/13
He can struggle too look 6'2 with Sachs baron Cohen at times
James said on 12/Feb/13
Well arch I think that is because Sacha is slim and has great posture.
Arch Stanton said on 12/Feb/13
Sacha Baron though always appears a bit more than a flat 6'3" to me though James, I think he a strong 6'3"; seeing his comment to Howard Stern I think he considers himself too tall as it is.
Arch Stanton said on 12/Feb/13
189 isn't extreme for Jackman but 6'3" is. He looks a legit 6'2" to me, not buying 6'1" range.
Keeny said on 9/Feb/13
Met Hugh Jackman at a theatre in New York. He wasnt any taller than me.I am 6ft 1 inches tall.
James said on 4/Feb/13
Very close too 188cm though. 189cm was defo extreme for Hugh jackman

Reynolds and Jackman are same height, James can't see a difference between those two.

what do u think rob? 6'1.75 isn't impossible i guess? i think hes very close too 6'2 but he could measure just a tiny fraction under 188cm.
Editor Rob
for every guy who is 6ft 2 there's another who is 6ft 2.25 and another 6ft 1.75...so you could have 2 guys saying 6ft 2 and they'd look half inch apart.

it is bound to be the case for a lot of people who don't say fractions, jackman I think is near 6ft 2 flat, he could always dip a little shy of it, more than being like 6ft 2.25
Lo sgozzatore said on 30/Jan/13
I think Affleck is a bit taller than Jackman, at about 6'2. Jackman looks a weak 6'2, i think a 6'1.5 listing would be closer, maybe 6'1.75 but i doubt he's a full 6'2 guy
Balrog said on 29/Jan/13
Affleck is clearly closer to camera not to mention the angle isn't the best.
Sam said on 29/Jan/13
Xina, Affleck's head almost right next to the camera here, so the photo has a warped angle. In some other shots they appear around the same mark:

In movie Deception his character was described as "about 6' 1'' ''. So that gives perspective about his height. If you check pics of him and Ewan Mcgregor it appears that Hugh is 186cm tall.

Routh IS one inch taller than Jackman! Same shoes, no excuses! Jackman does look 6'1.5 also with O'Brien and Baron Cohen... 6'1.5 is definitely closer! Noway Kutcher is the same height of Welling! He'd be at least one inch shorter! Not to talkabout L Jackson who was at least 15 cms shorter than Magic Johnson! The same Johnson appeared a bit taller than legit 194-195 ibrahimovic... Fox did look 1-2 cms shorter at least than MCGainey who seems to be a legit 6'2 guy! Not to talk about the other guys! Ahah rampage, you're the best! These height could be right! Yeah, IN SHOES

I think we're done here :)
Larc-186.7cm-188.6cm said on 20/Dec/12
I bet all my money that this guy will be eye to eye with me if we met, and Ryan Reynolds too, both are 6'1.5, nothing more or less.

A true 6'1.5 guy can give a full 6'2 impression a lot, that's why he looks 6'2 sometimes, he's a weak 6'2.

A classic example of a legit 6'2 is Jean Reno, who easily towered over a lot of actors in some of his old movies.
Lo sgozzatore said on 17/Dec/12
Then, Cohen is near 6'4, Conan O'Brien near 6'5 and Brandon Routh 6'3+
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Dec/12
He looked 189-190cm in Swordfish next to a then 184cm Travolta.
Not suggesting he is that tall but I don't think he's under 6ft2.
Lo sgozzatore said on 16/Dec/12
He does look under 6'2 with Conan O'Brien, Sacha Baron Cohen, Brandon Routh!
6'1.5 is closer
Arch Stanton said on 4/Dec/12
As listed, but he's surprisingly naturally skinny. He has a classic meso build, chest arms and stomach all typical meso without the "ripped ab" look. All I can say is that he must be eating half a farm and lifting twice a day to maintain it. Reynolds is an endomorph and could never look as solid as Jackman.
Dmeyer said on 25/Nov/12
To me hé alwais looked 5-6cm taller than travolta Jackman is 6'1.75-2 in , rob is there a chance travolta was not mire than 5'11.75 but swordfish time 2001 Late 40s , hé dosnt look a strong 6 ft near jackman more like 5'11.75 , today looks 5'11.25-11.5 , to me hé was never more than flat 6 ft

Hugh Jackman is a weak 6'2. He's about 2 inches taller than Christian Bale (6'0) and about an inch taller than Michael Caine (6'1). And he's around the same height as Ryan Reynolds (6'2). Ryan Reynolds even said in an interview with Craig Ferguson that Hugh Jackman is 6'3. Though I think that he's a weak 6'2 or if not then he's very close to it. He's also noticeably taller than Ewan Mcgregor (5'9.5).
James said on 15/Oct/12

Indeed Jackman looks 6'1 range with Conan aswell. He is not a legit 6'2.

Not buying anything less than 188cm for Jackman.
He's listed at 6ft2.5(189cm) in most places and looks
to be around that.

He did look more of a 6'1 guy with Conan aswell, also Jimmy Kimmel said this guy was easily shorter than Liam Hemsworth(190cm). Jackman could be 186cm.

Not convinced he walks around most of the day at a full 6'2. I'd say he's 187 cm.

not sure what jackmans footware was like but if ryder is 188cm then jackman looks 186cm in comparison.

ryder is not 6'3, he was clearly shorter than ~6'3 edge when they were together
Josh said on 27/Jan/12
Jackman looked 6'2 on RAW and Zack Ryder is 6'3 but wwe bills him as 6'2 because hes pretty thin for a 6'3 wrestler. They did the same thing with Christian back when he was a cruiserweight.
Clay said on 1/Jul/09
Hugh, where are you getting that from ? On Sportscenter it looked like they were both wearing .75 sneakers.
Lenad said on 30/Jun/09
I will confess he doesnt look a hair over 6'2 next to Ronaldo but in other photos he looks the same as Will smith. I still don't buy anything under 187cm for Jackman
Hugh 190cm said on 30/Jun/09
Ronaldo's in football boots while Jackman is in sneakers. Jackman is 189cm.
Clay said on 30/Jun/09
Huge, Ronaldo is listed everywhere as either 6 foot or 6'1 flat. Jackman as can be seen in that pic is no more than a half inch taller.... and when Sportscenter covered it you could see they were wearing similar footwear.
Hugh 190cm said on 29/Jun/09
Ronaldo looks around 184-185cm to me. Jackman is no less than 6ft2. 6ft2.5.
Clay said on 29/Jun/09
Isn't there some form of pilates and Yoga that is supposed to stretch the spine and can give you an additional 1 inch in height ? I read about it in some magazine.

Clay, no I
Gotxo said on 28/Jun/09
Well Ronaldo is a solid 6 footer (183-184cm) that puts Jackman at 6'1" at very best.
Clay said on 28/Jun/09
Maybe Ronaldo grew Up ? Are you serious ? Ronaldo was done growing a while back. Jackman cannot be more 6'1.75 so about 6'2 in the morning.
aaa said on 28/Jun/09
Well, maybe Ronaldo grow up :), anyway he can be 184cm tall so I think Jackman is 187cm maybe weak 188cm.
Clay said on 27/Jun/09
aaa, I saw Sportscenter covering Jackman meeting Ronaldo, they were standing on the same elevation.
aaa said on 27/Jun/09
I think we cannot decide what is his height by comparing him with Ronaldo on this photo. Futhermore Ronaldo is closer in that photo (look at the nearer arms of both - Ronaldo

Doesn't look 188 in the pic with Ronaldo. See for yourself. Click Here
Anonymous said on 26/Jun/09
he is a legit 188 cms, I thought he was very close to 6'3.
Clay said on 26/Jun/09
Lenad he looks tall because of his body type. I have the same type(long lanky legs, small head) and people think I'm 6'6 or 6'7 when I'm actually only 6'4 flat. Look at the pic of him next to Ronaldo, Jackman is obviously not over 6'2.
Hugh said on 26/Jun/09
Manuel both Ronaldo and Cristiano Ronaldo are not 6'1". Ronaldo :182-183 cm, Cristiano Ronaldo:184 cm.

6ft1 is dumb for hugh. 187cm is the lowest he could possibly be. I'm sorry but there is no way in hell that a guy who is 6'1 1/2 max would look that tall
JJ said on 26/Jun/09
Jackman is pretty tall, 188cm would be accurate like he said
Manuel said on 25/Jun/09
Ronaldo is not 6'1, he is 6 feet, you are confusing him with cristiano ronaldo who is 6'1
Clay said on 25/Jun/09
Mhouillon rather than being condescending about it just look at facts. Kidman cannot be 5'11 because she is 1.5- 2 inches shorter than Ashlan Gorse who measured in at 5'11.25. Jackman is a half inch taller than 6'1 Ronaldo as the picture proves. Why do you refuse to look at factual picture proof ? Kidman is not 5'11, she's at best 5'10 and Jackman is at best 6'1.75.
MHouillon said on 24/Jun/09
Klem... What do you mean with "She's never 5'11"... Do you think, she's taller ? Yeah, maybe.

Ahh... Kidman is never 5'11... Okay. You got me.
I know.
In fact, she's a weak 5'6, Jackman is barely 5'10, like me.
We once met, and he was my height. In fact, a little less than me. So maybe 5'9.5, even maybe 5'9, or more, 5'8, as he's known of wearing lifts and high heeled boots and shoes. So anything above 5'10 is ridiculous for Jackman.
Maybe he's even Tom Cruise's height, but thanks to "frog angle"-camera-technique...

Who knows ? I could even stand a 5'6 for Jackmann. Or even 5'5.
rov said on 23/Jun/09
This guy is not 6'2 by no means, he looks exactly the same height as ronaldo in thos pics

Kidman is never 5-11, by that claim you are probably be one of the people who estimates all taller women at 5-11 to feel better themselves.
klem said on 23/Jun/09
I would estimate he is 6-1.5 or 187cm in the evening and 6-2 first hour out of bed.
Clay said on 23/Jun/09
Hugh, how is it ridiculous ? Look at the pic next to Ronaldo who is 6'1(same distance from camera and similar footwear). Because of his body type Jackman can often look taller than he is, he is not more than 6'2. He absolutely did not look 6'2.5 next to 6'3 John Krasinski.
Hugh 191cm said on 23/Jun/09
6ft1.5 is ridiculous. 6ft2.5 rob?
Clay said on 22/Jun/09
Adam, here Jackman is next to 6'1 Ronaldo Click Here

Does he look 6'3 at all ? No. Now John Krasinski is a legit 6'3
Clay said on 22/Jun/09
Mhouillon, If you think Jackman is 6'2 and a half than Ryan Reynolds would be an easy 6'3(which having met him I can confirm he is not) and Liev(who claims 6'3) would be 6'4 and Taylor Kitsch(who claims 5'11) would be 6'1.
Clay said on 22/Jun/09
Mhouillon, Kidman was 2 inches shorter than E reporter Ashlan Gorse when they were both wearing 4 inch heels. Ashlan as a joke was measured on the show and her height came out 5'11.25. Also how can Jackman be 189 when he is pretty much the same height as Ronaldo, look at the pic Click Here

And Ronaldo was measured at 6'1.
adam said on 22/Jun/09
This man is more likely 6-3.
MHouillon said on 21/Jun/09
Kidman a "strong" 5'9... Yeah, ofcourse.

Jackman = 189cm.
Clay said on 20/Jun/09
Leung, Your friend needs to go watch Jackman and Bana in more movies. Not only are they both tall but they are also muscular. Your friend sounds too shallow for her own good, and it's not as if either Bana or Jackman would even be remotely interested in her when they could have any girl they want.
Clay said on 20/Jun/09
MHouillon, First of all Kidman is a strong 5'9, she is absolutely not 5'11, she was 2 inches shorter thna E reporter Ashlan Gorse who is 5'11 and they were wearing similar footwear. Look at pics of Jackman next to Ronaldo and Chris Bale, he is not more than 6'1 and a half. If he was 6'3 then Liev would be 6'4 and Ryan Reynolds would be 6'3.75, and Taylor Kitsch would be 6'1. No more than 6'1.5 as can clearly be seen in pics next to Ronaldo.
Lenad said on 20/Jun/09

Sorry, but such a nonsense !

The red carpet pics show 5'11 Nicole Kidman with 3-4 inch heels, making her 189-190cm (6'2.5"-6'2.75"). Jackman wears flat heeled shoes (barely 1 inch heels). He still is 1.5-2 inches taller (3,5-5cm) than Nicole Kidman. Making him at least 192-193cm tall (6'3.5-6'4) IN SHOES. Reduce the shoes that Jackman wears, and you have 190cm, in Germany called "Ein neunzig". Which is almost 6'3, or 6'2.75). If he straightens up, he's 190. Needs an upgrade.

6'1" is .... I'd have to swear here to commend this 'claim'.
keegan said on 15/Jun/09
i see jackman as a strong 6'2 ... 189cm ,mayb even 190cm with perfect posture
Ali said on 14/Jun/09
185-186cm is my guess. That would be
6'2 in Hollywood.

He is no full 6'2.
