hmmm but meeting the guy UNK i can just tell becuase i know my own height and he was wearing smart black leather shoes with a very small heel.
of course i dont know the size of this heal in cm, but i honestly beleive it was under 1 inch. he is certainly taller than me.
as for films of course directors use tricks, but ive loooked at many photos from film sets, and on fan sights and he consistantly looks over 5'9 to me. of course that is my opinon from the evdidence i have SEEN. i will gladly accept the view of others if can see a clear picture of him standing on level ground, standing totally upright. becuase pictures can be deciveing as well as im sure you are aware

My comments on Moss's height didn't seem to post.

What I was saying is there hasn't been enough evidence for Rob to downgrade Kate from 5'6", so we can't just assume she is 5'4" by a few quick sightings... she looks more 5'5" to me.
UNK said on 14/Mar/07
will - films are the absolute worst place to get heights from. directors use many tricks, none of which can be picked up by the audiance.. that's the whole point of it being a trick.

don't be so sure on heel height by a guick glance... most dress shoes, trainers, and boots give you more than an one inch... depp is the king of chunky heels (lifts.. i don't know, but he certianly isn't caught in chucks or vans).

i see him between 5'8" and 5'9".
will said on 14/Mar/07
ok ive been puttin alot of my time into this. ive looked through 5 of depps films in which he is wearing a normal heel. around 1 inch that is. now im judging his height on the basis of the actors around him ( obviously consideirng any heels they have on themselves). consistantly he does not appear under 5'9.
i also make this claim having met him at the potc 2 premiere in london.
i am definatly 5'8", and i was wearing a 1 inch heel. he was at least an inch taller than me, with roughly the same size heel as me. so i honestly think he is not under 5'9"
i do however agree with matt in that depp's body weight suggests he is under 5'10.
UNK said on 14/Mar/07
I don't see Moss under 5'4.5" ever. I think a solid 5'5" is more likely. I haven't met her, but have seen countless pics of her next to numerous other celebs. She has a slouch and a bent-knee pose she uses a lot next to men.

I think Glenn is a great source to this site for sure, but even he admits seeing someone in the flesh for a few minutes doesn't make you an expert on their height. You could ball-park it pretty close, but getting an exact height is still tricky. Shoes, posture, uneven ground, hair style, hats, etc.. could easily through you off an inch or two in either direction.

With all that said, I don't see Depp over 5'9".
glenn said on 14/Mar/07
5-4.5 tops.unless she grew.
Terry said on 14/Mar/07
Yeah, if she's 5'4 he's definitely way under 5'9, look at this picture where she's not wearing heels Click Here
Felix said on 14/Mar/07
WOOWWW 5'4? Shiiit, yes then Mr.Depp is 5'7-5'8! Glenn are you sure about Kate?
leonari said on 14/Mar/07
Glenn: Really? is Moss that small? I say the smallest I can imagine her is 5'5"... but you are the one who saw her in the flesh...
glenn said on 13/Mar/07
moss isnt 5-6.she is 5-4ish.
trueheight said on 13/Mar/07
For those who want to downgrade Depp even more - plz check out Private Resort b/c it's clearly inconsistent w/ the under 5'10 opinion; did I mention they were both barefoot?
trueheight said on 13/Mar/07
Depp is unequivocally at least 1.5in taller than Rob Morrow who is listed here as 5'9. In the movie "Private Resort" - both were in their early 20s and both were barefoot in many scenes together. Either Depp is 5'10 or Morrow is only 5'8 - you can't have it both ways
will said on 12/Mar/07
does anyone have a clear pic of depp next to somebody else famous where we can see thier feet, and have a better estimate of difference in height?
regards Will
will said on 12/Mar/07
actually matt im 'squabling' over a different issue. the fact that i wont be told what i can and cannot write on this site, other than by its administrators. theres this thing called free speach.....
as for your picture matt, its flawed as we cant see thier feet. therefore we dont know what footware they have on. so it seems strange how you can make such irrational and genralised assumptions, when it clearly is not 'solid proof'. a better exmaple of 'solid proof' in my opinion would be a clear picture showing footware on flat ground.
will said on 11/Mar/07
you see felix, unfortuanlty that was part of my answer and an opinion which i am fully entitled to put on this forum. so i will stay thanks
will said on 9/Mar/07
ahhhh had a brainwave, check out the film the astronauts wife. in that depp clearly is about the same height as his 5'9 co-star Charlize Theron. perhaps depp is 0.5 inches taller than her.
Felix said on 9/Mar/07
ofcourse will, depp is the best, but we are here to discuss the actors height, and if you don't want to do it, well, Good bye! :)
will said on 9/Mar/07
as far as im concerned depp's height lies between 5'9-5'10. i have watched basically every one of his movies and being a fan ive seen 100s of photos. depp often has heels on his shoes, nothing more substaintial than 2 inches i would say. but consistanly to me he has never looked under 5'9. he has worked with quite a few actors over 6 ft and he has never looks dwarfed by them. so stop squabbling over 1 inch, i would understand if he was like 5'7 and claimed to be 5'10. the fact is hes stil a total legend. 5'10 or not.
glenn said on 6/Mar/07
orlando is 5-11 i guess.jerry 5-5?
Felix said on 5/Mar/07
yeah, your'e right glenn, One thing is for sure, Jerry ain't that tall and Johnny is maximum 5'9, Orlando is taller than we think maybe? like 177?
glenn said on 4/Mar/07
i told you about jerry.here depp looks 5-8 to 5-9 to me.and orlando is clearly taller if he positioned himself like depp.
Felix said on 3/Mar/07
Saw this, Johnny with Jerry and Orlando, Jesus Jerry looks short, maybe you were right about your shortsighting Glenn, he do look very short in this pic, but he got very low cut shoes and Johnny do have a bigger shoe.

Here's Johnny with Keith Richards and he Keith looks 1,5cm taller or something like that... take a look!

UNK said on 28/Feb/07
Chris you are assumimg Pacino is a solid 5'6". Many people think he is more 5'5". I have a pretty good source that met him and said he is the size of my wife.. she is just scrapping 5'4".
Felix said on 27/Feb/07
Chris he got higher shoes than Al in Donnie Brasco in many scenecs.
Chris said on 24/Feb/07
I'm watching Donnie Brasco right now and he's a solid 4 inches taller than 5' 6" Al Pacino. I'd say somewhere between 5' 9" and 5' 10"
trueheight said on 22/Feb/07
I saw that early 80s teen film of him and Rob Morrow who's 5'8 and Depp was consistently like 1.5-2 inches taller than him; they were barefoot and barechested alot of the time also. JD has quite a skinny frame and narrow shoulders

The movie is called Private Resort, it was on cable recently. If Morrow is at least 5'7, then JD is at least 5'9
Anonymous said on 18/Feb/07
I think that' ok.in p.of the C he seems to be this height.
Felix said on 16/Feb/07
Correct, 173-174cm?
Stench said on 16/Feb/07
Right, Tim, even if Bloom was 5'10
Everyone can check out some clips of 21 Jump Street on YouTube. If DeLuise is 6'1 as stated on this site, Depp is hardly 5'9 but shorter than that
The Horse of FUNK said on 15/Feb/07
tim, who said Bloom's 5'9? And I thought Bruckheimer is 5'8...
G-unit said on 14/Feb/07
Johnny depp just can't be either 5'8 or 5'10. I say he is 5'9, 0.5cm more or less.
Antron said on 13/Feb/07
Stench, I deal with those as follows:
1) Dafoe is in shoes or boots of unknown origin
2) Depp is barefoot
3) Depp and Dafoe are never standing up straight next to eachother
4) The camera angles are not neutral for height guessing
5) This very site proclaims : "The funny thing is, in many films HE'S NEVER LOOKED THIS HEIGHT, I'd usually thought he was 5ft 9 range to begin with!"
6) I can ask you the same question about how you deal with Glenn's pics; I'll add that Glenn has said he can look 5'11"; To gain 3 full inches of height is very difficult and when done, is fairly obvious.
7) I don't think he is very tall, just not under 5ft 9

Therefore, until I see evidence of huge huge lifts or back to back barefoot pics of Glenn and Johnny looking the same height, I believe he is in the 175 range, not the 173 range.
Stench said on 11/Feb/07
Antron, how do you deal with the Crybaby pictures?
In My opinion they're a very good indication of his possible height
His proportions in those pictures tell me he's not more than 173cm
Antron said on 9/Feb/07
Depp just does not look shorter than average (movies or in more candid photos), nor does he look taller than average. 5'9" to 5'9.5" in my opinion. Also Glenn has never put him below this height, and he has loads more credibility than so many of us posters.
Cheyanne said on 7/Feb/07
I absolutly love Johnny Dept he is so sexy for being and old man. His movies just keep getting better and better...Keep up the good work Johnny I LOVE YOU!!!
Felix said on 30/Jan/07
Well absolutley not more than 5'9, but if you say that Dafoe is 5'6-5'7 and wearing shoes 1.5inch that give him 5'7,5-5'8,5, Johnny is standing on something black also :S don't know what that is...hmm...when they both are at a good angle they appear to be the same height...so ...my best guess is as I always said 5'8 :D maybe 5'9 in morning :)
mike said on 29/Jan/07
at the potc2 premiere next to 5"7 keira knightly who was wearing heals, he still was taller by about 2 - 3 inches so about 5"10 would be right
Felix said on 18/Jan/07
In post pictures he appears to be 176cm but sometimes he can appear shorter, like in Gleen pictures...Never seen him look over 180 though....
MarkyMark said on 16/Jan/07
Glenn it's strange because on the picture it seems that you have the same height and Depp wears coyboy boots so he can't be taller than you ?
Felix said on 14/Jan/07
173,5 - 174cm is bang on! Considering the barefott scene with Charlize Theron! and he looks it in low sneakers with benicio del toro.
McMurphy said on 8/Jan/07
I saw Pirates of the Carribean The Curse of the Black Pearl and Sleepy Hollow he looks about 5'9 to me.
Glenn said on 6/Jan/07
He can look tall.he hasnt walked past you.
trueheight said on 5/Jan/07
Depp has never looked tall and has never created the illusion of looking tall. He has however, in his early years atleast, been partial to 2in boots. I don't think he has ever consciously tried to boost his height, unlike Cruise. I mean, he did fear and loathing out of respect for HST and shaved his head and wore 1in sneakers. he's all about acting and has no reason to boost himself, he'll be fawned after no matter what his height. I htink that now he's settled down, he cares even less - Cruise should take a hint!
trueheight said on 5/Jan/07
fOr example on fear and loathing, he was waaaay shorter than Del Toro. HST was like 6'2, not short at all. But Depp looked kinda shortish in F&LiLV, of course, he wore 1in sneakers but still he looked under avg
trueheight said on 5/Jan/07
depp has never looked 'tall' or even 'tallish'. 5'9 sounds right. Just average, I can't see 5'8 and I would question 5'10 b/c of his slight shoulders
Katie said on 5/Jan/07
WOW! I thought that he was 5' 10! freaky. yeah, he does give the illusion of being tall, definetely!
Anonymous said on 31/Dec/06
Glenn what is your height up to your forhead line (instead of top of your skull)?
Glenn said on 29/Dec/06
Yeah,but he did appear 5-11 at times.
Felix said on 28/Dec/06
But Glenn if he wear Cowboy boots in your pictures, then he's not 5'9 :)
UNK said on 21/Dec/06
@Anonymous - In that pic with Bruckheimer he appears .5" - 1" taller, no more. Don't be fooled by the hat. Also, he has his famous "tall combatboots" on.

I agree though, Depp's head looks normal size to me.
Anonymous said on 20/Dec/06
Brah said on 23/Nov/06
nice photo PC! Bruckheimer's arms definitely "outlank" Depp's
One reason Depp looks taller is because he has a pretty small head, hence his eyeline and shoulder are higher than someone of similar height with a larger forehead or head.

How does Depp have a pretty small head??? The average male head curcumference is 22.05" Depp's head is proprtionate to his body, he does not have a pretty small head, he has a normal head size. And remember Brah, in this pic Johnny is a soid 1.5-2" taller than Jerry!, so think before you speak.
Glenn said on 18/Dec/06
yes,barefoot.email me and Ill tell you more providing its stays amongst anyone who wants to know.
will said on 17/Dec/06
i believe johnny is around 5'10, assuming the door he was next to was 6'6'' of course. when i met him at the potc 2 premiere he looked around 5'9'', certainly no shorter. and he wasnt wearing lifts
Felix said on 17/Dec/06
Glenn, do you know if this was his morning height? must have been, he sure don't look taller than 5'8 in most pictures.
D. Ray Morton said on 16/Dec/06
Interesting, Glenn! I'm assuming this was barefoot?
Glenn said on 16/Dec/06
UPDATE.someone who MEASURED him told me 5-9.makes sense.best source possible.cant give away more than that.
Felix said on 16/Dec/06
Glenn, the guy is skinny and gives a tall impression. Maybe it also could be just an impression you got? Maybe he wear lifts? I don't think he's taller than you anyway. 173cm for Depp.
Glenn said on 15/Dec/06
Depp is a enigmatic dude to figure out.he can look 5-10, 5-11 in the street when I used to see him.
Ed said on 15/Dec/06
Anshelm, I saw that pic recently in a magazine and I was blown away by the difference in Rush and Depp's height. I don't know how Rush(5ft11.25) can be only 2 inches taller than Depp, but look that huge next to Depp in that pic. Granted they are wearing boots and hats, but still there is at least 4 to 5 inches difference from where the tops of there heads would be, minus the hats which add several more inches. I'm guessing Depp is shorter, and Rush is at least 6ft or a bit more. Depp is always wearing boots of some kind,motorcycle boots,cowboy boots, or combat boots and they always have a good heel on them. As for Rush, he did only look about 2 inches shorter than Eric Bana(6ft2.5) in Munich. I'm guessing Depp is more like 5ft8, and Rush is at least 6ft.
Brad said on 15/Dec/06
Being lean brings out the tall factor. Eddie is correct. It deceives. You tend to look down to up and it deceives. A person who carries weight brings the side to side look, brings down the height in your mind.
eddie said on 8/Dec/06
UPDATE-I was the one who posted on oct 13. Well I saw Wilmer Valderamma hug Rosie O'Donnell on the View the other day and he looked taller than Usher and Johnny Depp hugging Rosie O'Donnell. The funny thing is Wilmer being of normal weight looks shorter in pictures by himself. While Usher and Johnny Depp because of their slim looks can look really tall when they take photo stills. Look at the picture with Johnny Depp standing next to his Porsche. I took a picture by a same model Porsche and I stood just as tall as Johnny. I am 5'9" and 152 pounds. I have a slim look and can look deceivingly tall when people see me walking alone when I approach them.
Felix said on 8/Dec/06
Anonymous, watch Fear and loathing in Las Vegas with Johnny and 186cm Benicio del toro and I swear you won't say that he's 5'10 in regular shoes :)
George H said on 6/Dec/06
Right on, Brad! :)
Brad said on 6/Dec/06
Yeah, Depp is 5' 10" with Bill Murray but we don't see his lifts.
Glenn said on 5/Dec/06
The thing is,Depp usually looked 5-10,5-11 in the street in the early 90s.
Felix said on 5/Dec/06
Glenn - I'm with you here, I see max 3 inches differnce beetween Al and Johnny in Donnie Brasco and yes Al has dress shoes and Johnny has huge heels... Glenn, the guy is your height!
Glenn said on 4/Dec/06
Im a weak 5-8 depp.thanks for the vote of confidence however.at least Im honest.though some think Im smaller.Brad-but Depp had huge heels and Pacino dress shoes.keep in mind I was actually there too.
George H said on 4/Dec/06
Did anybody see or mention "The Astronaut's Wife" yet, starring Depp with Charlize Theron? The director, whoever it was, took a lot of trouble in creating the illusion that Depp was about as tall as Theron, but failed miserably. Maybe BECAUSE of the emphasis that was put on close up shots of their feet, one in stockings, one barefoot and then zooming out to a wide shot in which Depp was about as tall as Theron. What gave them away? As usual the length of their arms, the length of her neck, the fact that in shots from the top of their heads to their waists you could see her hips tilted forward, suggesting her dipping her knees. In some shots you could really see her bending her knees to "sink to Depp's level" :) Also a lot of shots where he was standing on a stair step, or her sitting and him standing. It was more interesting as a study of how to avoid showing the height disadvantage of the male lead, than as an actual movie rofl.
Brad said on 4/Dec/06
He had 4" on Pacino in Donnie Brasco. I'd go with the 5' 9".
depp said on 1/Dec/06
glenn when did you last get mess? you might be 5'9 if not it the first pic deep looks about 5'10 - 5'11 in the 2nd about 5'9

Glenn-do you say that jerry bruckheimer is 5'6" max?
Anonymous said on 30/Nov/06
I know someone who worked on a soundtrack for a movie O. Bloom was in. She met him at the premiere and said he isn't a big guy. She is 5'6". From what I understand her saying... it's like a lot of celebrities are smaller in person because they don't give out their real heights, and you can't tell in films. If O. Bloom says he is 5'11" I'd bet in reality that is atleast 2 inches more than what he really is. So in Depps case he probably is a max of 5'8". I can't be certain of this but it does make sense to me.
Glenn said on 24/Nov/06
Now,I dont know whats up here,but I saw Jerry 2 days ago and he was 5-4 to 5-6.hard to gauge as he was in a hurry,slouched and too many people in my way.SERIOUS.

hi. Never posted here before. Not sure how i ended up here either.
But in the picture with 5'6 kate winslet, she's most likely to have high heals on so Johnny Depp is most likey to be taller than he appears in that picture.
Felix said on 17/Nov/06
Considering those pictures, I would say that Johnny looks Glenn's height, and I doubt that he's taller than 5'8 Glenn. Glenn how tall do you think johnny is barefoot? 5'8?
UNK said on 17/Nov/06
what are you talking about? you can't see glenn or johnny's full arm length
Lmeister said on 16/Nov/06
Hmm there are exceptions to that wingspan rule my morning height with military posture is 5'8'', but my wingspan is around 5'11''...
Anonymous said on 15/Nov/06
One way you can tell a person's height is if you look how LONG his arms are, usually guys over 5'9" have longer arms than guys who are 5'8" and shorter.
Examine Depp's arms and Glenn's , Glenn's almost looks dimunitive, Depp's are longer.
PC said on 12/Nov/06
yeah I can imagine JD looking 5-11ish including shoes. 'Normal' shoes add about 1.5 inches to one's height, so if we're using JD's suggested height of 176, that would make him about 180cm (approx 5'11"). But I just can't see Depp not using lifts, which is why I see him perhaps your height Glenn, or couple of cms shorter, and using lifts to get to the 5'11" mark in person.
Glenn said on 11/Nov/06
Lifts? thats what I always suspected.but then I learned that lifts arnt the answer for everything and can only get you so tall.in Depps case lifts can be the answer.in Sly,its lifts and a decent height of 5-10 to begin with.
Felix said on 11/Nov/06
Glenn, do you think he wear lifts?
Glenn said on 10/Nov/06
This might be true pc.but I have seen him as big as 5-11ish,alot.
Felix said on 10/Nov/06
PC I'm with you here, In fear and loathing Johnny is way much shorter than 186cm Benicio del toro, and is absolutely not 10cm, it's more, and I see Johnny also max 1 inch taller than 5'8 Glenn. I watched some pictures of the premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean part 1 and Johnny looks shorter than Jerry there, both regular shoes and Johnny wears a hat. strange?
PC said on 10/Nov/06
I dont know Glenn. On those pictures Depp looks 1 inch max taller than you (and thats MAX)...and he's wearing cowboy boots! That would probably put him down to the 170-173 range barefoot in my opinion (although I've never met the guy). And if you look at those photos with Bruckheimer JD's arms are really short..so I can't see him being as high as 176, im guessing he never goes out anywhere without some kind of lifts!
Glenn said on 10/Nov/06
Depp is between 5-9 and 5-10.Bloom is between 5-10 and 5-11.
Jenny B said on 9/Nov/06
i am now really confudled, in a different webiste it says that Orlando Bloom is 5'5 and Johnny Depp 5'7 but at premiers and whilest filming, Orlando is always taller than Johnny Depp, what heights is Johnny Depp then?
Glenn said on 5/Nov/06
Hiking boots.
Felix said on 4/Nov/06
Okej, alright Glenn, recognized his footwear?
Glenn said on 4/Nov/06
I never saw him shorter than 5-10.as big as 5-11.5.
Felix said on 4/Nov/06
Glenn - Does Johnny wear suspicious footwear then? What's the shortest he looked to you? He's a good friend with Marilyn Manson right? maybe he's been tipped to wear platform shoes? ;D
Glenn said on 3/Nov/06
You know those shoes that a business woman would were.2 inches max.not going to a club heels,with toes exposed.she was taller than I expected.you see,the mystery with Deep is I have seen him look 5-11ish in public.
Felix said on 3/Nov/06
Yeah I buy 174 for Johnny, downgrade :)
dmeyer said on 2/Nov/06
i believe you glenn most friend of mine that met her tell she is 180 cm i think she is more 178 179 range not as short as rob say she was taller than swayse in boots and she was in sleepers she cant be less than 5'10 she walked by me from distance she looked 6'2 in heels
Felix said on 2/Nov/06
But it's kind a hard to see him like a full 5'9 when he's a least 1 inch shorter than the 5'9 orlando (which many people clamis) and when he's the same height as you Glenn. Could be everything from 172-175?
Nolifts81 said on 2/Nov/06
I've seen Depp and Charlize both barefoot in the movie "The Astronaut's wife". Is clear that Charlize is 1.25 taller than Johnny Depp. I think Charlize is a little over 5'10" and Johnny is a legit 5'9". You have to see the movie because I am not able to post pics. Glenn- What do you mean when you say small heels? 2 inches?
Glenn said on 1/Nov/06
Charlize was 6ft in small heels when I saw her.
Felix said on 1/Nov/06
Nolifts81, post a pic! :D Charlize is more like 176,5 i think, s0 173-174 seems about right! :S got some good photos of him looking the same height as jerry Buckheimer and pictures of him looking maximum 2 inches taller than the 165cm? Anne Heche.
Nolifts81 said on 1/Nov/06
I've just seen a movie where Depp was barefoot with Charlize Theron also barefoot: She is 1.25 (3cm) taller than him. So How tall is Charlize? I think She is 5'10.5, so Depp should be a solid 5'9".
Glenn said on 1/Nov/06
I havnt seen him in 10 year Alex,but I saw him ALOT then.hard to say.alway around 5-10.BUTdid walk funny.
Glenn said on 1/Nov/06
He appeared 5-11 on the left and 5-10 on the right.both in heels.
Tomcat said on 30/Oct/06
In the pic on the left :
there seems to be a big difference in height between Glenn's scalp( or the heighest point on his head) and Jhonny's.
As compared to the one on the right. I believe Jhonney was wearing lifts on the night the pic 1(left) was taken. He can not be more than 5ft 9 in.
Felix said on 25/Oct/06
Alright, do you think Johnny wear lifts? Are those pictures the "only" time you meet Johnny or have you met him more often?
Glenn said on 23/Oct/06
I thought he was my height.and he could be.but after years of scrutiny,I think he might be 5-9,5-10.
Felix said on 22/Oct/06
cool, Glenn, do you think Johnny is the same height as you are?
Glenn said on 20/Oct/06
Johnny and I had mutual friends,but no we arnt friends.yeah,I had some flat footwear in those pics.

I have seen rosie o donnell hug johnny depp on rosie o donnell show and I have seen and she also hugged usher raymond on the view. Usher was a good inch higher than rosie compared to johnny. I have to say both Usher and Depp are between 5'8 and 5'9 but no taller or shorter.

mrdeppness it sounds like you really follow Depp's image ( I'm sure Depp is a chick magnet). But there is no way we can guarentee Depp to be 5'10" for all we know he could be 5'8.5" We still need concrete evidence, and what you provided is a scientific theory which is correct but holds no evidence towards Depp's real height. Please provide a picture of yourself and also in standing height to see the resemblance, thank you.

Max, one cannot judge anything on this photo because the footwear is not visible.
packers_fan said on 6/Sep/06
its hard to estimate max because keira knightley is not standing straight but i guess if anything that would put her taller! so i really dont know considering jerry bruckheimer is 5'7 i would give johnny maybe 5'8 i just dunno though he doesnt look any taller than jerry
max said on 4/Sep/06
there is not a chance that johnny is 5'10 nor orlando 5'10 below is a pciture which even question 5'9, in all honesty nobody can denie these picture looks certainly 5'8, for both maybe even lower depending on whether keira knightley is 5'7, but in my opinion 5'8

exatly!! 5'10" is a special height. I consider it even the perfect height. You can appear tall if you like and small. 5'1ß" is a bit above average.perfect.
Glenn said on 4/Sep/06
Iggy had the nerve to tell me 5-10 on his own height.5-8 tops.I agree with your theory on Depp.5-10,like Sly,you can look tall or small.

Depp is taller in both pics. The one on the left - Hes leaning a bit and slouches yet he's marginally taller; get the posture and stance like Glenn's, he's about 5' 9.5" IMO.

The pic on the right; Glenn again has better posture and isn't slouching and he's closer to the camera AND Depp's head is slightly down. Bring him forward, get him standing like Glenn, he'd look about 5' 9.5" again even taking an inch or so off due to boots.

I think he's 5' 9.5", his posture isn't the best/he doesn't care about standing tall in pics. End of.
patty said on 30/Aug/06
Depp is around 5-9''or5-10'' FOR SURE. In a clip of the Movie Pirates of the caribbean: Curse of the black pearl where he's standing face to face with kiera knightley on the island Depp is taller than her. Kiera knihghtley is only 5-7'' like me:) so he's for sure 5-9''or5-10''
JMG said on 27/Aug/06
LT- Technically anyone under average height (5-9 1/2) is below average height which would be defined as "short" but i dont think anyone would consider someone 5-9 short.I'm 5-8 and i seem to be taller or the same height than every other man I walk past on the street..i've never been told that im short....personally i would consider any man 5-6 and under short and any man
5-11 and over tall. I think every man between the heights of 5-7 and 5-10 should be considered average height.
LT said on 27/Aug/06
Any height at 5'8" or under IS short and is considered to be short. Didn't you always have trouble fitting into clothing nicely??!! Always having to fold the bottom of your pants?!! check out this link you may need it.:

JMG said on 26/Aug/06
After recently watching Ed Wood, compared to Sarah Jessica Parker(about 5-3) and Martin Landau(6-0 maybe 5-11 considering his age and posture, Depp appears to be either 5-8, 5-9 tops. My guess is 5-9 give or take a quarter of an inch.

hmm glenn are u 173 cm barefoot?
Anonymous said on 12/Aug/06
remember guys "lifts" don't necessarily mean higher heels, they could also mean hidden lifts that goes inside a shoe that has a low heel. But I don't think Depp would wear hidden lifts during the production of a movie, that probably would be terribly uncomfortable.
John Doe said on 12/Aug/06
I just watched the scene in Pirates 1 where Depp and Keira stand infront of each other. She is 5-7, it didn't switch to showing a side shot. Just different shots with the camera positioned behind each others backs. He looked close to three inches taller but not quite. Id say Johnny is 5-9.5 shoeless. And close to 5-11 in shoes.
Jack said on 11/Aug/06
Paul was wearing pretty much the same size heel as depp was. And when Depp's on screen mother told him to take his boots off when he walked into the house, he only dropped about 1 inch. He then appeared with out boots next to Ray Liotta who had slippers on, and they were as close in height as they were when they both had boots on.
Felix said on 11/Aug/06
Jack - It doesn't matter, if Depp was Reubens height he wouldn't wear lifts, but if HE IS 5'8 HE DEFINTLY WORE LIFT to reach Reubens height.
UNK said on 11/Aug/06
jack, why would you "doubt" depp wore lifts in a hollywood production? it's almost guaranteed they had him in more than 1" heels when dressing him like a 70/80s drug lord.

Glenn, both men were wearing boots in the film and I really doubt Depp was wearing lifts.

just slittle bit to think about, i dont know how many of you have seen pirates of the carribean 1 or 2 but there are afew specific scenes where jonny and keira knightly are stranded on a beach barefoot and on afew cases they stand on level ground right next to each other in full view, now if u have one on dvd you can freeze the scene and the strange thing is that jonny is maybe 1 cm or so taller.. i will try and freeze the frame take a photo and put it up, however if you have seen the movie you will know the scene im talking about, its a good indicator

He was about the same or taller than 5'10 Paul Reubens in Blow. Maybe close to 5'10... 5'9.5

i am leaning towards 5'7", too. When both he and Christina Applegate were barefoot he had about 4 inches on her. now if she was 5 foot 5 as she is listed most of the time, it would make depp about 5'9". but after reading the christina height article glenn says 5'3 or 5'4. That puts depp down to 5'7" or 5'8"

"A skinny well proportioned 5-9 guy can look semi-tall."

Absolutely. An example of body type that makes you look taller to me is Liam Neeson. At his post I stated that I used to think he was 6"6 early in his career. Then, after seeing him in "Mutiny on the Bounty" next to the other actors on the ship barefoot, I realized he is not.

I had a childhood friend who had that lanky long armed & leg build. He was 6"1, but appeared to be 6"3 to everyone.

I may even be as bold as to guess 5"7. Going by the movies and "Jump Street" TV show? I never thought he was more than 5"8 guys. Even in one of his first appearances in the first "Nightmare on Elm Street" he looked very short to me.
Brad said on 2/Aug/06
5' 9" is about right. Notorious for casting people shorter than him. Robert Conrad did the same thing.
Glenn said on 30/Jul/06
My gut is 5-9.my gut on Sly is 5-10.

he looks 177 but 176 make sens they looking for a stand in 5 feet 9

D.Ray-he could very well be 5-10.but like all chameleons of height,he is as low as 5-8 at times,looking as big as 5-11 other times.even one guy gave me this high estimate the other day when he was just in town.he shouldve been used to that question by now,and handled it with a better response.not that he was nasty.but it was bizzare.his huge bodyguards then tried to wisk back to filming and I didnt get my photo with him yet,so I approached Depp and was blocked by the gorrilas,when Depp replied"he's alright,he's with me",I then ran in and had this girl I hadnt seen in 3 years take my pic.now she regrets not taking one too.I offered.tough to get near him now.

Glenn: So what is your final verdict/Judgement on Depp? 5'8" or more 5'9"? What does your gut tell you? Please reply. I appreciate it. Thanks dude.
D. Ray Morton said on 30/Jul/06
"Because although Depp is a rebel he is still a man and like all men he is vain about his height."

Could be. Glenn's experience might've been an indicator of that - or possibly just being annoyed at a question he's no doubt been asked countless times over the years. (I'm not saying that I wouldn't have asked that question if I had the chance, mind you.)

Maybe you guys are right about 5'8" ish. Dunno why, but he still looks over 5'9" + to me.
Bleemo said on 29/Jul/06
Because although Depp is a rebel he is still a man and like all men he is vain about his height. Besides he's not that much of a rebel he does his fair share of blockbuster movies. I do think Depp is more likely 5'8 ish, he's not that short per say but he's far from tall.
Glenn said on 29/Jul/06
I mightve repeated this 6 months ago,but here it is.the most bizzare height request story ever.Depp,moments before that Brasco pic,was asked by me "how tall are you?" as he is signing photos for me.then stops signing,he looks at me,pulls down his shades and stares at me for about 3 seconds(felt like eternity),and says"I dont know,I forgot".I then say,"cause I heard you were my height,but every time I see you your taller".he stayed silent.true and bizzare.did he think I was making fun of him?continued signing by the way.I had 20 photos he always generously signs.

D. Ray Morton said on 29/Jul/06
Not that I would know for sure, but I somehow can't picture this guy being under 5'9". My best guess would be 5'9.5", possibly 5'10".

There was some interview with the creators of television without pity (I think), one of whom said that Depp "came up to my ear" or something to that effect. Either she's 6'3" or she was wearing mega heels on that particular evening. Depp ain't that short a guy.
trueheight said on 29/Jul/06
well, he towers over Stiller in that link I posted.

and yes, 5'6 IS way off. so you're basically using one single appearance on one show for a final judgment? way to ignore the rest of the evidence

again, its a carpet!

Depp looks 5-9 most of the time. I dont think hes any shorter than that.
Andy said on 28/Jul/06
I'm a regular viewer of the Tonight Show and the platform is very visible.
My estimate is by no means 'way off'.It's the same with Letterman.A 6 inch platform for the guests, Letterman greets them with a stoop then shuffles back behind his desk for no comparisons.
If one person lies about their height in Hollywood then they all do,otherwise it would be too obvious.It's in their agents interests to make them larger than life.
trueheight said on 28/Jul/06
andy:

that's no 4in platform and your estimate is way off
Leung said on 27/Jul/06
5’10” is very realistic for Johnny Depp. Just like Stallone, with choice footwear he has the ability to match it with 6 footers.

Some people here are talking nonsense, because if Depp was 5’6”-5’7” then that would mean Al Pacino was 5’3” and Kate Moss also 5’3”. Come on, get real.
UNK said on 27/Jul/06
"4 inch platform"? it looks like a rug. there's no way depp is only 5'6".

"jay doesn't get close up, for obvious reasons" what reasons? why would he care how short or tall depp is?
Glenn said on 27/Jul/06
He would look and walk to funny to be 5-6.he is a mystery,but one thing is for sure,he is 5-8 to 5-10.not under,or over.remember,in the early 90s he appeared near 6ft to me.I mentioned this way back.2 magazines I looked at,same time,had 2 heights on him.one said at nearly 6ft tall,the other said small and petite.these were the descriptions of the interveiwers.Depp doesnt get the attention Sly does,but he should.
Felix said on 26/Jul/06
5'8 wearing lifts I think, gives him the impression of being 5'9-5'10 barefoot (1-2 inch heel) + regular shoe lift. What do you think? It's time to downgrade this man?
UNK said on 25/Jul/06
Well, I wouldn't say 4" over stiller.
Glenn said on 22/Jul/06
Wow.are you for real? I love that movie.dont remember that.must have a looksie.even if Wilem is 5-8,that still leaves Depp at 5-7. Yeah,trueheight,I told everyone Depp looked 5-11 to me in the early 90s.Sly and Depp are the chameleons of height.height shifters.

I saw him on the Oprah Winfrey Show. From what i hear Oprah is 5-6 to 5-7 at the max and she had what looks to be two inch heels (the heels didn't look hight). Johnny was also on in his usual boots (about 2 inches). Johnny did look about 3 inches taller than Oprah was. So i say 5'9 to 5'10 maximum. I'd say he is probably 5'9 and some change.

Watch Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas with Depp and Benicio Del Toro and there is a scene when Depp and Del Toro is walking and you see that they are wearing the same type of shoes and you see their whole body too, They are going through a party or something and Depp is taking a drink on the way or something, but to the point, Del Toro (185cm?) towers over Johnny with a least 13-15 cm.

Lawrance:
He does not stand 3 inches taller on the picture, no way. When you stand 4 inches taller then someone your eyeline is about at the same height as their top of the skull, he ain't even near that. Notice that glenns should is covered by Johnnys and slightly leaned back, therefore appearing a lot lower. Compare the other should instead and notice that Depps left shoulder seems higher because he aint standing straight.

I'd say Depp has one inch on Glenn, and then it comes down to footwear, so Depp is somewhere around 5'8"-5'9", 5'8½" maybe? Althou he have a very well proportioned body with tall legs and a slim build, making him look taller.
trueheight said on 16/May/06
nice pics Azarea: well i've sorta changed my mind on him. He does look close to 5'10 and those shoes look very much like a pair I have. they aren't boots either

I was really suspect over the 5'10 after seen him beside Bill Murray in Ed Wood.
Lawrence said on 15/May/06
If Glen is 5'9.25" with 1.25" average heels on in the above picture (5'8" Glen barefoot), then Depp is clearly 3" taller than Glen in this pic making Depp in this picture 6'.25" with COWBOY BOOTS ON (2.25" cowboy heels)(5'10" Depp barefoot)....and Depp is not even standing straight and Glen is!!!! Look at DEPP'S RIGHT shoulder and GLEN's; (who is this Glen guy anyways (just a photography collector), he must be loving all the attention!)LEFT shoulder, draw a straight line across the top of both shoulder heights and you will see a 3" inch height advantage for Depp. Ok, so Depp looks to have a 3" advantage on Glen on this pic so lets say Depp is 6'.25" with cowboy boots on. Lets say Depp put Glen's shoes on so minus 1" from Depp's footwear. Now Depp has exact footwear as Glen and Depp is 5'11.25" with 1.25" heels, therefore if Glen's natural height is 5'8", then Depp's natural height is 5'10". Does any one follow me on this, is anybody understanding this concept??!!GIVE IT UP GUYS DEPP HOVERS AROUND 5'10", LIVE WITH IT, we are 2-2.5" shorter than him!!! CASE CLOSED. WITH ME THAT IS I WILL NOT SUBMIT ANY MORE EVIDENCE TOWARDS DEPP'S HEIGHT ANALOGY, GIVEN THE PICTURE ABOVE. CASE CLOSED FOR ME. CHECK ME OUT PROVING OTHER CELEB'S HEIGHT, SEE YA>..5'10" DEPP.

i dont reckon he really wears lifts because he clearly isnt bothered about being shorter than other people, even women. look at the tall actresses he has worked with: charlize theron, lena olin, rosumund pike, heather graham etcetc
UNK said on 15/May/06
Rob - I would have to say there was some camera angle things going on in that scene with Theron? In two photos above, with 172 cm Glenn, Depp is looking only slightly taller, and probably has the heel advantage. Also, Depp really never appeared too much taller than, maybe 5'6", Kate Moss. So I don't see how he could be the same height has Theron. Camera angles + a well postured Depp and a slouching Theron???

I saw Johnny Depp walking along with Vanessa Paradis and they were the same height. She was probably wearing heels but I wouldn't put him at more than 5'6". I was shocked how small he looked. As for Al Pacino being 5'7" - no way. Just watch the bit in Devil's Advocate when him and Keanu Reeves are up on the roof of the building. The camera pans out at one point to show them next to each other and Al Pacino looks TINY next to Keanu!

This is insanity! Glenn-Glenn and I both know what we saw! He was 6'0! He MUST have a double. This is just the weirdest, isn't it my love-bug Glenn?
Early ninties Depp is not 21st century Depp. I think something weird is going on...
If it was lifts then why did he stop wearing them? Why change after all those years? knowing everybody would notice? That statement makes no sense.
Flemish said on 26/Apr/06
In that picture of "e" Depp still looks a good 5'9" to me.
With 2" lifts he could have easily looked 5'11" wich is as good as 6' and explains how Glenn saw him.
Think his current height here is about right.

QUOTE from Glenn about himself: "Me being 5-7 or 5-7.25 at night and 5-7.75 to 5-8 when I wake might explain a little to people thinking Im shorter than 5-8,since most photos are taken at night."

Knowing that, we still think Depp is over 5'9"??????

Some people say that Johnny Depp use to look almost 6 feet, and some people say that he's 5"7" or shorter. What a variety!

i think that he is five ten, but it is just his small frame that makes him appear shorter
Glenn said on 19/Mar/06
Risers is another name for lifts.

no one ever said he was only 5'7. He wore high heels for Willy Wonka. And what are 'Risers'?

I saw Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka i Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and I'm surprised that some people say that he's only 5"7". I would have guessed that he was at least 6 feet.

first off,pacino is no way 5-7.5-5 or 5-6 tops.some say smaller.so that makes depp 5-9 tops.
trueheight said on 17/Mar/06
He's about 2in over Pacino, maybe 3 in particular shots:

Do these pics prove anything? No, only that it doesn't take a genius to cherrypick

Glenn said on 16/Mar/06
savvy- your missing something.pacino had normal shoes on in Brasco.depp had cowboy boots on.I witnessed this in the flesh. no sebastion,I always though he was 5-9,taller than me.but anything is possible.
sebastian said on 15/Mar/06
do you think you are taller than him without shoes
Glenn said on 14/Mar/06
Either way,in both photos he is wearing footwear superiour to mine.
trueheight said on 14/Mar/06
Docs/combat boots, yes have about 1.75-2in already, and don't usually appear suspect b/c they're so popular
trueheight said on 14/Mar/06
never said he did, did I? I said "he gives the impression that he can". key word impression. We all know Depp can't tower over glenn. He's 5'8 to 5'8.25. JD has never appeared 'tall' in his premiere photos. shortish if anything, but always sorta normal
DudeX said on 14/Mar/06
trueheight, you are one crazy mofo. Depp doesn't tower over Glenn in both photos.
UNK said on 14/Mar/06
@trueheight - yeah, i meant he doesn't wear that 70's looking cuban heal... i agree he wears combat/dr martens style boots all the time. very rarely see a photo of him in any kind of sneaker.
trueheight said on 13/Mar/06
converse chucks add about 1 inch. MOst ppl are under the impression that they're very very short, when infact they are just .5in less than the standard sneaker
trueheight said on 13/Mar/06
UNK, you're a little wrong. Depp always weras boots; not the cuban heels that brian provided but more like Doc Martens, which have an 1.75in heel. I wera the same, i use insoles(not lifts) for comfort and get a total of 2in
trueheight said on 13/Mar/06
2nd photo proves depp is around 5'8 and with cuban heels, he's 1 inch over glenn.

1st photo gives the *impression* that Depp CAN tower over glenn(3in) BUT, that inference is disproved by the 2nd photo
Glenn said on 12/Mar/06
He can be anywere from 5-7 to 5-9.unless he is in bare feet,we will never know.I dont wear boots like that.
sean said on 12/Mar/06
Glenn, do you wear similar boots? Because if you don't, Depp ends up looking pretty close to your 5'8". Why do you think he's 5'9 - are these bad angles?

Glenn said on 11/Mar/06
it had a heel going these boots.and someone confided in me he wore lifts.in those days he looked almost 6 feet! now he looks 5-9,-5-10.
Editor Rob said on 11/Mar/06
Added another pic of Glenn and Depp, he was in timberland type boots. Also another axl rose and changed the old jack nicholson shot (scanner cut top of their heads off) to a better one glenn had scanned today.

Wow.thats Very Impressive.it Was Taken By A Girl Who Is 5-4.
