this morning I was playing in a pick up basketball game around 11, on the venice beach back court. Anyways, it was a 5 on 5 full court and Jake Gyllenhaal was on the other team. I am new to this site, but I found it because I was impressed by his height. I thought he was short, but he was the tallest on the court. Around 6'1, no shorter than 6.05. Also, he was playing really rough. It was surprising, but he was shoving a shorter defender around on offense and on D he was pushing through picks and cursing at people.

Anyways, he is 6'1. I have never had a stanogram, but I assume I am 5'11 barefoot and 160 pounds. He is 6 foot 1 and 180-185 pounds.

Hes 5-9 in reality
MD said on 14/Jul/06
He has to be a lift wearer, or simply wears thickly-heeled shoes at premiers. I can't buy the 6'0", not even for a minute.

Jake with what Celebheights have as 5'9.75" Lance Armstrong and 5'11" Matthew McConaughey:

Jake's obviously not that mach taller even if he's slouching. There are more pictures around of them out biking but nothing from a useful angle I've seen yet.

You know, Jake looks the same height as Arnold Schwarzenegger did next to Lance... :D

I dont' think Jake is 6. I am a 5.9 tall girl and my friend is 6f tall and so she looks much taller then me, as for Jake when he has some average heighted women wearing heels next to him he looks the same height as she. So I think he is 5.10, like my other friend who is like 5.10 and a half and is noticibly taller then I.
Anonymous said on 13/Jul/06
He is a touch taller than Lance Armstrong, who is 5'9.5". I think it's best to say Jake is 5'10.5".

The least thins to do is to assume some's height by watching the movies, it's the same talking about actress' hair color - it can be canged in five minutes!!! But in general I think he is under 6 feet, look at his real life pics, he looks average.

Jake Gyllenhaal worked out with his bike mates on April 29, 2006 in Los Angeles riding his BLUE CANNONDALE R2000 racer bike with some other riders speeding trough MALIBU. The SHIMANO equipped bike FRAME CONFIGURATION looks like it's for a 5'10" person (like Lance Armstrong) and Jake is clearly TOO BIG FOR THE BIKE!
The saddle stem post is already mounted to the LIMIT of 8" high. This clearly indicates that Jake Gyllenhaal is 6'0" or MORE...
He wore a silver helmet, white parka, red shirt underneath, black sweat pants (full lenght cycling shorts), Shimano cycling shoes...the bikes were loaded in a silver AUDI sportwagon...
Glenn said on 25/Apr/06
Amen to that Anonymous.once I thought he looked 6-1!
Anonymous said on 23/Apr/06
Ok all of you people that are saying "there is no way jake is taller than 5' 10" judging by these pictures..." If you haven't personally met him, how do you even call your judgments? Pictures don't prove EVERYthing. I have met jake and I know for a fact that he is at least 6' because he was wearing ugg slippers when I met him and there is virtually NO lift in an ugg slipper. So sorry to dissapoint you all but jake is a pretty tall guy, 6' at least.
Viper652 said on 21/Apr/06
Man, I still cant beleive that Jamiie Foxx is anything over 5-8. He looks short every time I see him.
JD said on 20/Apr/06
Jake IS 5'10".
He might use lifts sometimes but most of the time he DOES look 5'10" (me), plus MD's photos proved and settled it, Jamies Foxx is also 5'10".
caz said on 18/Apr/06
looks like he is slouching a bit...
ds said on 14/Apr/06
Okay my dad is 6' and he's taller than a LOT of guys. You can tell he's tall. Lot's of guys are estimated to be 6' when they're really 5'10" or 5'11", it's a common mistake. I'm not saying that he is 5'10". But he just doesn't look that tall. I'll have to see more pics.
Elio said on 7/Apr/06
5'10"?? Ang Lee looks about 5'6" to me! :)
trueheight said on 6/Apr/06
anyone know Ang Lee's height? He looks 5'10 based on Brokeback Premiere photos
Glenn said on 29/Mar/06
Funny,whenever someone backs my claim,its from a person who met the celeb.not usually a person at home wit dvds
Anonymous said on 28/Mar/06
Well I had the privelage to meet Jake during the filming of his movie Jarhead. He was filming a few scenes down at CSUCI (california state university of channel islands) which is about five minutes from where I live. So my photography class and I were invited to come and see some of the behind the scenes stuff. While we were there one of the camera men asked if we wanted to meet somebody special and out walked Jake in a bathrobe, pajama bottoms and ugg slippers. He was significantly taller than me (seeing as I stood next to him) and I am a little bit under 5' 10". I personally think he is at least 6' 0" even, because uggs don't give that much of a lift.
smokeblower said on 27/Mar/06
Jamie Foxx may be starting to wear lifts now since he has become "very" famous. So it may not necessarily be a good idea to use Jamie Foxx as a calibratory element in regards to judging someone's height.
Anonymous said on 25/Mar/06
All I know is that he's not much taller than Elijah Wood in the pictures on Wireimage.com. I don't think that he could be over 5'9" or 10". He is shorter than Leno and Leno is only 5'10". Hmmm. I think his papparazzi shots show how avg. height he is too. This is no 6 foot by any means.
MD said on 25/Mar/06
I'm confused, here. Here is 5'11" Peter Sarsgaard and 5'9.75" Jamie Foxx, with Jake not looking 6'0" at all. Either he's not 6'0", or all of them are siginficantly taller than we think.

Jake truly looked 5-9.5 at the Academy awards. He looked average height. This guys height seems to fluncutuate. He might wear lifts.
Mikex said on 24/Feb/06
In an interview with the Guardian newspaper it said he was 6'2'' which supports anonymous below. However from my memory of Donnie Darko he didn't strike me as that tall.
Anonymous said on 23/Feb/06
i always imagined him being short for some reason, but i actually walked right by him a couple weeks ago, and he seemed very close to my height. im just about 6'3''.
rae said on 23/Feb/06
In the movie The Day After Tomorrow, Jake Gyllenhaal & Dennis Quaid are around the same height. I would have never pictured Jake to be 6'0, but after watching that movie again, I know he has to be.
phil g said on 23/Feb/06
i met jake and he was taller than me and im 6'
MD said on 21/Feb/06
If Jake is a legitimate 6'0" barefoot, than Jay Leno must be 6'0.5"-6'1" barefoot. lol

Editor Rob
someone mentioned a comment - deleted by mistake - about Jake at the baftas beside Theron...not looking quite 6ft...
claire said on 19/Feb/06
jake is definitely not the same height as glenn in that pic. id say around 5ft 11
Glenn said on 15/Feb/06
your correct megan.but it helps take a guess.not in this pic too much.he isnt short.he is 6 even.
megan said on 14/Feb/06
You guys can't judge people's height from pictures. Posture, foot position(whether or not they are taking a step), what type of shoes they are wearing, all comes into account. Glenn's picture is really awkward so its hard to judge it from that.

Editor Rob
glenn's pic simply backs up that he's met him and puts a name to the face of jake...

anybody can come here and say 'i met jake'...at least we can believe at least glenn met him...
gyllenhaalic823 said on 7/Feb/06
oh god my mind was messed up when i posted that . . . SORRY!!!!! wrong acronym!
I am a little confused on Ang too, but from their stature it looks like they are 6'0"
maybe ang likes elevator shoes...
Viper652 said on 6/Feb/06
They both look about 5-10 in that pic.
Londoner said on 5/Feb/06
The photo is from the DGA not SAG:-) Jake looks as tall as Heath Ledger. But my question is, Ang Lee is 174cm. How can I believe that both guys are 185cm? They look more like 180cm to me.
kk said on 4/Feb/06
there are reports that heath ledger is about 1 inch taller than jake, but why jake appears to be almost the same level with heath ledger in brokeback mountain and at some public ceremonies?????
Anonymous said on 3/Feb/06
You can see Jake is bending obviously, and his eyeline would be above glenns head, so hed be 6ft comfortably, assuming hes not a footwear user
Anna said on 22/Jan/06
I met Jake Gyllenhaal at the Palm Springs Film Festival and I'm on GettyImages and I'm 5'6". I'm the one in the brown hair holding the camera.

http://editorial.gettyimages.com/source/search/details_pop.aspx?iid=56540533&cdi=0

He's definitely 6 feet, no doubt about it. He seemed considerably taller than me and very lanky.
westlondon said on 21/Jan/06
realistically hes no less than 6 foot. People are jealous of his overall package - i just read a report saying he was 5 foot 9 and not that good looking in real life - i mean come on thats ridiculous! He is a pretty tall dude, nothing execptional though, and much more importantly a fairly decent actor!
Mr. R said on 20/Jan/06
I saw Jake and Kirsten at lunch one day. When he stood up, he looked 5-10.5. When I passed in front of him to get a better height, he straightened up, and was pretty close to 6 feet. He slouches all the time.
Glenn said on 20/Jan/06
like I said,I took this with my own hand.no one was around to take pic.wasnt goin to blow the chance when he has turned me down before.
Glenn said on 18/Jan/06
this was outside a party.anything is possible.he always looks tall.
Viper652 said on 18/Jan/06
The crazy thing is Heath is listed on some sites as 6-3!!!!
MD said on 18/Jan/06
To expand on everything I've said, I was watching the Tonight Show with Jay Leno (as I do nearly every night) tonight/today and Heath Ledger was the guest. For what it is worth he was maybe half ann inch taller than Jay (but no more). It would probably be best to revist both of these guys heights as something just doesn't seem to add up, here. I still think that Heath is somewhere between 5'10.5" and 5'11.5" barefoot, and Jake would be an inch less than that.
Viper652 said on 18/Jan/06
Jay Leno is no taller then 5-10. Maybe Jake wears lifts?? Its a possibility I guess.
Glenn said on 17/Jan/06
I took that with my own hand,no one was around to help me.and he isnt keen on photo with.he was in a jolly mood this night,lifts are possible.he always looks 6 feet to me.
M.Jorgensen said on 17/Jan/06
Could Jake have been wearing lifts when Glenn met him?

Editor Rob
anything is possible...although no idea where he had met him, so...
Anonymous said on 17/Jan/06
Whips! Dead on! Thank you! It drives me mad that people buy this load from actors. What is most odd to me is how there can be so much evidence to the true height but people still buy the "embellishments". LOL!

P.S. Glenn's pics are weird. He is under 5'8" or taking awkward shots that are of no use to us.
WHIPS said on 16/Jan/06
He was on Jay Leno recently and was shorter than Jay Leno. I'd say an inch shorter than Jay. No idea Jay's height but I doubt he is any taller than 5'11, making Jake no taller than 5'10 with shoes on. Definately not 6ft. All these American 'celebs' should come to terms with the well known basketball expression we use in Australia for American imports coming to our shores with 'embellished' heights..it's referred to as the 'Pacific Shrink'!!
MD said on 16/Jan/06
Jay Leno HAS to be 6'0" or taller if Jake is to be as tall as people keep saying. I can't think of a better comparison. Jay is a perfect measuring stick, and I have no reason to lie. He was half and inch shorter than Jay, and that's a fact. Take that as you will. It's perfect because there are no tricky camera angles, no uneven floors...Someone PLEASE explain to me what I (and others) saw of his height on the Tonight Show very recently. So far, I haven't seen anything adequately explain what I saw.
balita said on 16/Jan/06
saw that movie couple days ago and somehow he didnt seem that tall... Definitely looks like a 5'11 guy to me.
Tubbs said on 16/Jan/06
Saw Jarhead last night, had no idea before I saw it how tall Jake was, from watching it, and comparing him to Fox (5'9.5"), it looked to me as though he was 6'0 even, he is also well built, which gives the illusion that he could be bigger still.
CoolJ said on 16/Jan/06
Viper concedes.. lol
elio said on 16/Jan/06
He's got to be somewhere between 5'11" - 6'0".
5'10" is a joke... I say leave him at 6 even for now.
dmeyer said on 16/Jan/06
easily 6 feet in that pics even 6'1"
gyllenhaalic823 said on 16/Jan/06
please read my comments below that if you downgrade him to 5'10" you leave dustin hoffman at 5'3.5". also, you'd have to downgrade ellen pompeo, who was considerably shorter (5+ inches and she's supposedly 5'7") than him in moonlight mile, marley shelton (who actually looks 5'6") from bubble boy, and the list goes on.
Oh, and also Fox seems to be taller than what he's given credit for. there was this one movie that came out a few years ago and he looked at least 5'10-10.5"
and i would assume that jamie wore higher-heeled shoes than jake when that photo was taken if he is truly only 5'9-10"
Viper652 said on 15/Jan/06
Is hes a half inch shorter then Jay, then that makes him 5-9, which he was listed at earlier in his career. 5-9 is his real height.
dmeyer said on 15/Jan/06
6 feet seems right
balita said on 15/Jan/06
unless Foxx is wearing "special" heels on that picture, that Jake boy can't be the 6 foot he claims to be :
http://www.epochtimes.com/i6/5103158021470--ss.jpg
I'd say 5'11 tops
Anonymous said on 15/Jan/06
DOWNGRADE!!!! 5'10".
Anonymous said on 15/Jan/06
You're right, MD. I TEVO'd it and he is a tad shorter than Jay. 5'10" is tops.
Glenn said on 15/Jan/06
yes,I will now.ask and Ill try my best.not everyone poses.thanks!
MD said on 14/Jan/06
Actually, he had to leave early on the Tonight Show and stood next to Jay again and he was definitely slightly shorter than Jay by about a half-an-inch. Take that for what it's worth.
Anonymous said on 14/Jan/06
Can Glen send that Pic. ?
Anonymous said on 14/Jan/06
Exact same height as Leno. Leno is 5'10". Sorry, he just isn't near 6 foot. Use your better judgment.
MD said on 14/Jan/06
Jake was on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno (late night/early morning 1/13/2005-1/14/2005). When he entered and stood by Jay he was as tall as Jay, or maybe even slightly shorter (by half-and-inch at the very most), but no taller. Both were in regular dress shoes. Even if we give Jay 5'11" that would only make Jake that tall or 5'10.5" (and this is in regular shoes so you subtract and inch). I'd start him down at 5'10.5" really. I hope someone is able to confirm having seen this episode of the Tonight Show, too, because it prooves that 6'0" is wishful thinking unless we've all been fooled and Jay is really 6'0" in shoes which just can't be true from all that we know of Jay, the perfect measuring stick.

hey if my picture didnt work because it's part of a member-only site I'm sorry ='(( whoops i didn't consider that the link only worked for me because I was logged in. but you could trust my word ;) okay I'll find a different pic
gyllenhaalic823 said on 8/Jan/06
http://jake-addiction.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=610&pos=3
Sam Mendes is listed around 5'10". He looks more 5'9"-ish, but this proves the fact that Jake isn't just 5'10". He's stooped over a bit (and Sam is too but less than Jake) and Jake still has a considerable height gain on him. Check it out.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 3/Jan/06
You know, this is really starting to confuse me; in some pictures he looks taller, in some pictures he looks shorter.
But he isn't just 5'10" because when his big sister is next to him in heels she's only 1/2" taller (she is 5'9" naturally) so that doesn't make sense that he's only 5'10". (If you downgrade him to 5'10" you're going to have to knock down Dustin Hoffman to 5'3.5", which doesn't sound right at all.)
elio said on 3/Jan/06
He's definately over 5'10" anonymous.

Hmm, he may indeed be close to (or on) the 6'0" mark afterall. He's definately NOT taller than Quaid though. He may be about the same height.

Obviously we can only see the front of Jake's hair on this photo, so there's no way of knowing exactly how much extra height he gains from it. I initially said 1.5" as an exageration though! 1/2"-3/4" sounds more likely.

Add this with the extra 1/2" he gains from the slanted floor (compared to Quaid) and it means he's probably just under Quaid's height.

gyllenhaalic823 said on 2/Jan/06
The picture is marginally slanted, oh let's say it adds 1/4 CENTIMETER to Jake's height.
Also, even though Jake's hair might be taller than Quaid's, you are still the tallest near the back of your head, where Jake's hair is shorter at that spot, and you can see that that means his true height is about 1/2-3/4" shorter than his hair at the front.
Oh, and Jake's head is slightly tilted, making up for Quaid's not-so-bad posture.
Also, I reconsidered Emmy Rossum. Despite what I said before, she actually does look the 5'7", and the heels look taller, especially comparing her to Quaid, so I'd say she is 5'9-9.5" with the heels.
Glenn said on 1/Jan/06
he can appear 6 feet in person.ill send pic of him and I.
MOF said on 31/Dec/05
in that picture from Cnizzel, 5'11 Peter Saarsgard is taller than Jake...
Viper652 said on 31/Dec/05
Funny thing is I still think Foxx is no taller then 5-8. Jake sure doesnt look 6-0 there. This dude is 5-10 max.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 31/Dec/05
Notice that in that picture, Cnizzel, Jake seems to be bending his knee slightly and is towards the back (people look shorter farther away) and that Jaime seems to be making a conscious effort to straighten himself up and therefore look taller.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 23/Dec/05
i saw that article; it's not true. its also obvious in some of the pictures with maggie and jake that he's not 5 inches taller than his 5'9" sister (when wearing shoes with the same heel, of course; many times it looks like maggie is taller than jake because of her HUGE heels!) he's 6'0" but not 6'2"
CelebHeights Editor said on 23/Dec/05
In the Guardian, few months ago interviewer said: "At 6ft 2in, he's muscular, but so lean he seems a tiny bit bowed"
gyllenhaalic823 said on 21/Dec/05
thank you for clarifying the fact that he truly is 6 feet, PC.
and i had fun watching movies ;)p i compared him to his co-stars and arrived at the same conclusion every time: HE IS 6 FEET TALL!!
PC said on 21/Dec/05
Saw him at Dolce last year. I stand 5'10" barefoot and was wearing regular trainers and stood face to face with him. He was about 2 inches taller than me and no less. I can say for sure that Jake is a 6 footer and also a very nice guy.
Anonymous said on 21/Dec/05
i'll cut him some slack and say he's 6ft, people underestimate me sometimes and think of me as 5ft 10 until they see me stand next to people who are 5ft 9 and 5ft 10 and that shut's them up
gyllenhaalic823 said on 18/Dec/05
alright, this is sort of irrelevant, but,
IT IS JAKE'S 25TH BIRTHDAY TOMORROW!
Yay I'm excited I am going to watch a marathon of his movies or something (and look at the heights lol)
I do have to say that his height seems to vary, but he really doesn't seem anything under 6'0", or arguably AT LEAST 5'11.5" without shoes on
so, guys, please give him a break for his big birthday =*((
gyllenhaalic823 said on 17/Dec/05
which movies have you seen of him? because if ou saw him in city slickers or something he was 10 ;)p
no just kidding, but he was slightly shorter (one inch/half-inch or so) in october sky because he was only about 17 during the filming of that movie. so if that's one of the things you are basing your conclusion off of, it's slightly innaccurate.
Viper652 said on 13/Dec/05
Jake looks no more then 5-10 in every movie I have ever seen.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 12/Dec/05
oh and one more thing
as I was looking through this, the bottom people tend to agree more that he is around 6'0". the deal back there is that he's not 6'2". "What" says that he is 3-4 inches taller than his sister, but HIS SISTER IS 5'9" NOT 5'7"! that means he is 6'0-1" according to "what", but because he is a bit off I believe he is 6'0".
gyllenhaalic823 said on 12/Dec/05
to Horatio: 6'0" isn't very tall; it's over the average height (5'10") but not by far. Also, they could have used certain lifts in the D.A.T. to make Quaid appear taller than Gyllenhaal because he is the father figure. I realize that this might imply that they did the same on Brokeback Mountain, but I seriously doubt that, as they both wear the same type of cowboy shoes (look on rottentomatoes.com once again). He's not very tiny; his sister Maggie is fairly tall (5'8-9") and jake always looks about 3-4" taller than her; true, when she is wearing her four-inch heels at his premiers she is slightly taller (1/2 inch) than him, only because of the heels!
Horatio said on 12/Dec/05
I'm not bashing him for his height, I'm bashing him for lying about it. No way is this guy 6'. 6' is tall, and in "Day After Tomorrow" this guy looked tiny, probably the smallest guy on screen in most scenes.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 12/Dec/05
Okay to all of you people, I made a fool out of myself and I'm sorry that I sounded scary =P
But to britop, Kirsten Dunst is listed on this site as 5'6", but many people say she is around the 5'5" range. That's where I got my reference. And did ANYONE even CARE to look at Dustin Hoffman's page? THERE IS A DIAGRAM! and in case no one cared to look here is the link from Google Image search:
http://www.celebheights.com/starimages/hoffman1.jpg
Every single site that I have looked on of him states him as 183 cm. GIVE HIM A BREAK! Why do people have to find a way to prove that someone is shorter than they actually are?
Plus, he actually LOOKS 6'0". True, you can never know with shoes these days, but if you compare him to others who wear the same type of shoes it doesn't make a difference.
And if anyone has heard about Brokeback Mountain (tagged as "The Gay Cowboy Movie") Jake is the co-star with 6'1" Heath Ledger. He looks ALMOST the same height, about an inch shorter.
I wish I could provide a link to prove their height but the picture that demonstrates the small difference does not have an address; you can find it on rottentomatoes.com if you still don't believe me.
Seriously, don't say that I'm biased just because I'm a "Gyllenhaalic," I personally WISH he was shorter because I'm short. And I like it that you don't have to be tall to be talented. But Jake is so just deal with it.
Horatio said on 11/Dec/05
BTW: Let me toss in that Jake was about 22 when the Day After Tomorrow was filmed, so it's - not impossible - but rather unlikely that he grew since then.
britop said on 7/Dec/05
sorry, but gyllenhaalic823, you're soundin' scary. Dunst is about 5'4" And I think you are off by 1.5 inches, which means that he is 5'10".5 No 6 feet here.
britop said on 7/Dec/05
Yeah, he looks exactly 5'10.5. My friend in that picture really is 5'9" and he himself says (proof in the pic) that Gylenhaal was 5'10" or so. 6 foot is redic.
gyllenhaalic823 said on 4/Dec/05
trust me he's 6 foot and looks it
compared to kirsten dunst in 3.5" heels (DIE KIRSTEN DIE! sorry) he looks somewhere around 3.5-5 inches taller, and since kirsten is 5'4"-5'5.5" w/out heels and 5'7"-5'8.5" with, jake really seems to be at the 6'0" mark
its clear in a lot of his movies that he is at 6'0" for example in the day after tomorrow he is clearly taller than Emmy Rossum (5'7") by at least 4 inches and she is probably wearing small heels, making her around 5'8". and by comparing him to dustin hoffman in moonlight mile, he is over 6" taller than him (dustin hoffman is 5'5.5") look at the picture on dustin's page on this website
sam said on 2/Dec/05
He looks taller than Peter Sarsgaard and Jamie Foxx in Jarhead, and Sarsgaard is at least 5'11".
Glenn said on 1/Dec/05
I have a photo with him and he looks 6 feet.he always looks tall to me.unless he's a lifts guy.
MD said on 1/Dec/05
I'd say that he looks slightly taller than you blog buddy. 5'10.5" isn't out of the question, but the 6' is just kind of ridiculous.
BritPop said on 30/Nov/05
Oh, he is the one with the mohawk. It is not humanly possible that Jake is over 5'10". Lindsay L. is teeny, even in heels.
BritPop said on 30/Nov/05
Here is my blog buddy (5'9.5") with Jake and Lindsay Lohan. Poor Jakey is out of the height closet and a solid 5'9.5". Lindsay is clearly at 5'4". http://trent.blogspot.com/
gyllenhaalic823 said on 17/Nov/05
One site said he was 6'2", I doubted that, but his official fansite and all these other resources said he was 6 feet tall. (I read the quote on his fansite @ the top =)) I LOVE YOU JAKE!) Since I'm only 5'0" and still growing, maybe in two years I'll be 5'3" or something - when I'm done growing ill be around 5'3"-5'5" so if i marry him he'll bee seven inches taller than me ;)p lol aww but then he's 111/2 years older than me so wahhh ='(( lol obsessed I know - - I am a GYLLENHAALIC!

What, Chris Rock is 5'11" according to this site. I don't think Gyllenhaal is under 5'11", not 6' feet maybe, but not under 5'11".

What: You are out of hand.. Rock 5'8? He comes up to the same part of this fellow as "5'9" Jamie does. Jamie (5'9.5) and Rock (5'10.5).

He may be a little below 6' but not far

Take a look at him next to 5'8" Chris Rock.

Take a look at him next to 5'9" Jaime Foxx. That is no 6 ft. I'm sorry.

Jake is 5'10". Everyone who has followed him since the beginning knows that he used to say he was 5'10". Look at a shot with hinm next to 5'7" Maggie. He is only 3 or 4 inches taller. 5'7" Gwyneth Paltrow is also at his height in 3-4" heels (at Proof premiers). That means he cannot be over 5'11". 6'2" is ludicrous.

No way he's 6'2''. Worked as a marine in JARHEAD, I'm 5'10'', he seemed 2 inches taller than me. He's very thin and has narrow shoulders, making him look taller

In this month's Premiere magazine, Jake is described as "six two" and muscular. Since he has TWO big movies coming out(Jarhead and Brokeback Mountain), apparently he is starting to grow!

I saw Jake about 2 months ago, while he and Kirsten were having lunch in LA. While I admit he does not look it, he is a pretty strong 6 footer. (I found a reason to stand next to him when they got up to leave!)

Yes, he looks incredibly average in height.
Catherine said on 9/Oct/05
Look at him next to Kirsten .He isn't 6' .He has to be like 5'9-5'10 the most.
MD said on 7/Oct/05
So, Rob, what are you going to do about this one?
what said on 28/Sep/05
I stood next to him at the standard hotel in west hollywood. He is not over 5'10". My friend and I thought maybe 5'9".

I have been trying to figure out how tall Emily Rossum is, and judging from the movie "Day After Tomorrow", she is probably about two inches shorter than Jake G. In "Phantom", she appears to be about 5 inches or so shorter than 6'2" Gerard Butler, so my guess is, Jake G. is probably about 5'11". Like I said, just a guess.
J. said on 3/Apr/05
He looks around 6 feet to me in all of those pictures that the last guy posted. He's 5'11" at the very least.

editor come on you've got to be kidding? did you see that pick with danson and jake. there's no way 6 2 danson is only two inches taller then jake. hell the man's eyes are align with the top of jake's head making him what, a max of 5 10!
JR said on 18/Mar/05
Worked as an extra with him in a gulf-war movie coming out this year, and he does look 6'0. I'm about 5'10'', and did look 2 inches taller
DT said on 27/Feb/05
Jake is definately 5'8, he's a friend of a friend so I know.
