@raging

Do you have a source? A lot of the sources say about 5'9" for the population and about 5'10.2" for white men.

Based on my anecdotal experience a weak 5'10" seems like it'd make sense.

Hi Rob

How do you think measures taller Mark Zuckerberg or Tom Cruise ?
Moi said on 27/Feb/22
I think he is shorter than that and is in 170-171cm range.
Raging said on 17/Jun/21
@SafwatTheSafyboy, The average American male is 5'8½ barefoot, but they measure in shoes alot that's why it an inch higher than the mark
SafwatTheSafyboy said on 24/May/21
@Soetan, it’s actually 176 (5’9.3), some would say it’s actually just 175!
Soetan said on 14/Mar/21
The average American male is said to be 177cm tall, but given that Americans measure alot in shoes, I would say it's actually somewhere in the 5'8.5-9 range but no more than that. So, that being said Mark is about 1-1.5in smaller than the average American male.

This listing at best, 170cm at worst 👍
Jkiller said on 25/Oct/20
5'7 to be honest, not any taller.

Let’s establish that he’s nearer 5’7” than 5’8”

@BrianC what shoe is 0.2-0.5 centimetres thick?
BrianC said on 4/Sep/20
The average height of 20 - 39 year old white males in the USA is a flat 177.0 cm. If we take into account that a minute, but still present amount of people dont take off their shoes for measurement, and that most doctor appointments are scheduled more often in the morning, chances are the average height is more like 176.5 - 176.8 cm max.
Thomas12232 said on 2/Sep/20
@jamestherealone height varies by study to study, due to location time size if the group etc. If we're talking noon-evening height for most young white males in the us it's a little over 5'9.5
Nik said on 25/Jun/20
@ cmillz - That's fair enough!
cmillz said on 24/Jun/20
Average white guy in the US is def not a full 5’10, if we’re talking afternoon/low heights.
cmillz said on 24/Jun/20
@Nik
I think he’s roughly 2.5” shorter than the average American white male, as I see him more as a weak 5’7 tbh.
Nik Ashton said on 3/May/20
@ Jamestherealone - He’s 2.5” below 5’10”, anyway I doubt you are right if elderly men are included!
Jamestherealone said on 14/Mar/20
@Nik The average male white height in the USA is 5' 10" according to scientific studies. At 5' 7", Mark is not one, not two, but three inches shorter than average. He is definetely tiny to be white American, no need for excuses. I mean, Mark would be average height in a country like Vietnam, but in the USA he is a short man.
Nik said on 14/Dec/19
@ Troufion - He is not even two inches below average!
Troufion said on 11/Dec/19
WoW didn’t know he was so tiny
175.0 cm said on 20/Oct/19
There are really people who think he's 5'6" at best?? Come on you've gotta be a really big down player to think that, I think he's 5'7" flat at night at the minimum. The 5'7.5" listing is entirely possible but I don't think his legit height is any higher than that.
The zuck said on 19/Oct/19
Looks 5’6” at best
Johnz said on 9/Oct/19
Both Obama and Trump are leaning down to make eye contact. Zuckerberg iss no more than 5'6".

He’s slightly under average.

@NightHeight

The camera advatange that guy has makes him look a lot bigger than he really is. But Rob's right, it's about a 9.5"' difference.

Could be near 6ft 5
Consiglieri said on 19/Jul/18
A little bit under the 5' 8 mark. Below average, but has a slender figure that makes him look taller than he is.
Kevin Yu said on 12/Jun/18
In my view,he seems to be 5'8-5'8.5(173-174cm)
6ftMedium said on 4/Jun/18
5'7" but I would have guessed 5'10,I was wrong.
Jonathon8 said on 14/Apr/18
I don't know why people still bring up the average CEO is 6'0? The study is CEO's self-reporting their heights not being measured. How accurate a height do you think a 5'9 fortune CEO gives with 500 million in his bank account? I'd feel 6'2 too. We would have dear big G claiming 'a strong 5'10' if he was a CEO.
KH said on 11/Apr/18
I think this guy needs to be reconsidered. I feel he could be more like a weak 5'7.

did you see his seat on the senate today?
mr. parker said on 10/Apr/18
When he testified before the senate today, he had to use a booster cushion on his chair.
MJKoP said on 24/Mar/18
Pretty sure I witnessed him shrink a tad within the past week. :D
Editor Rob
Certainly Mark will be walking smaller lately...I still think when he was meeting Obama he held up better than many 5ft 7 flat guys would do...but how much over 5ft 7 is debatable for him.
andre oliveira said on 14/Jan/18
168 or 169cm barefoot
Jacob said on 9/Jan/18
He looks barely 2 inches taller than his wife. And his wife looks like the height of an average woman. Obama clearly towers over him 6 inches. I’m going with 5’7 flat but he could be even shorter

Carlos Slim Helu is clearly taller than Bill Gates in Google Search images.
Then how Bill Gates is 1.78 m tall but Carlos Slim is 1.73m tall.
Again,Carlos Slim Helu is almost equally tall as Bill Clinton in Google Search images.
Then how Bill Clinton is 1.88m tall and Carlos is 1.73m tall.
And how Google is saying Carlos Slim height is 1.73 m.It's impossible
Undoubtedly for a sure Carlos Slim Helu height is not less than 1.83 m
You can see Carlos Slim helu picture with Bill Gates in Google Search Images
You can also see Carlos Slim helu pictures with Bill Clinton in Google Search Images and then compare to know the truth.
I am just informing you the truth.
HonestSlovene said on 4/Sep/17
@Stephen I think the average CEO is about 5'11"-6'0" range IMHO (tallish but not really tall). My dad is a decent 5'11" and he is in middle-management, his boss is 6'2"-6'3". Zuckerberg is a entrepeneur, not exactly a manager (though entrepeneurs can be managers as well) and he is 5'7.5".
anon said on 27/Jul/17
Google says that billionaire Carlos Slim is 173cm but he is clearly taller than Bill Gates. Thoughts?
Stephen said on 14/Jul/17
Hey Rob, this is what I've found:
"Centuries later, this association has not changed. A survey of Fortune 500 CEO height revealed that they were on average 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m) tall, which is approximately 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) taller than the average American man.
About 30 per cent were 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) tall or more; in comparison only 3.9 per cent of the overall United States population is of this height. Similar surveys have uncovered that less than 3 per cent of CEOs were below 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m) in height. Ninety percent of CEOs are of above average height."
"in research for his 2005 book, “Blink”, Malcolm Gladwell found that 30% of CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are 6 feet 2 inches or taller, compared with 3.9% of the American population."
They did these averages based on Fortune's first 500 CEO.
For example, based on your Entrepreneur database, male only, the average is 5'11".
Editor Rob
if a survey, then it means self-reported.

In that case I'd have said the average might be closer to 5ft 11 than 6ft.

Stephen said on 12/Jul/17
Hey Rob, on Internet the average CEO height is 6' but I think this is due to the fact that many are listed with 1-2 "more: for example, on Google Steve Jobs is 6'2" but he was 6 ", Tim Cook 6'3" but he is 5'11 ", Trump 6'3" but he was at max 6'2 ". Based on this do you think the average is more 5'10"?
Editor Rob
some CEO guesses will be too high, raising the average.

But I don't know if a proper study of like 1000 ceo's of global companies has been done, it would interesting to see the global average.
Stephen said on 8/Jul/17
Editor Rob, Bezos is like 5'8.5" and Tim Cook? He seems 2" taller than Bezos so a 5'10"? Funny that he is listed at 6'3".

Editor Rob
I'd have said Tim Cook looked more like 3 inches over Bezos.

Editor Rob, Can you estimate the heights of Tim Cook and Bezos based in these photos with Zuckerberg?

Jeff Bezos height might be over 5ft 8, but not quite 5ft 9...at any rate, he seems like he's an inch or so taller than Mark.

Joe said on 21/Jun/17
Rob, do you think he could pull off 5'8" or 5'9"? And is any shorter than 5'7" possible for him?
Editor Rob
I think at times he looks about 5ft 8, not 5ft 9 though, 5ft 7.5 a low I'd say.
Oanh said on 19/Mar/17
He carries himself as taller than he is. I'd have guessed 5'9-5'9.5", but when standing next to 6'1" President Obama, Mark looked
about 5" shorter.
KH said on 9/Mar/17
One of the rare listings Im going to disagree with. I'm thinking close to a full inch shorter then this.
Zuckered said on 23/Feb/17
I never knew he was that short. From his proportions in photos, I thought he's at least 5'9". I guess he's one of those people who look average to slightly taller than average, at least in photos, but are actually shorter.
truth said on 12/Jun/16
Yeah he is short: 5'7", no more.
Shi said on 7/Jun/16
a head is about 25cm so it could very well be a foot or just under
Shi said on 30/May/16
So she's around 5'6 1/2?
Editor Rob
that would be getting closer than 5ft 8 yes.
MD said on 30/May/16
@Rob, if Mathias Doepfner is 6'7" as the media claims, isn't this more than a foot difference?

Editor Rob
it could be around a foot worth, but more I am not sure as mark could be at a slight disadvantage in his position.
Shi said on 26/May/16
Rob how tall do you think sheril sandberg is? She's listed at 5'8 everywhere but even with a small heel she's still shorter than Zuckerberg. Something is not right here can you find out?
Editor Rob
having a brief look, I'd say 5ft 8 was at least an inch and likely more higher than her barefoot height.
Shi said on 18/May/16
His wallet would Even edge is all out on the stadiometer haha
Johnny said on 6/May/16
@Rob can you edge out this billionaire by 0.5 in on your stadiometer?
Editor Rob
I believe I would...but then, height isn't a contest, just a measurement.
If you measure by achievement, he's a giant in his field.
Lugo said on 4/May/16
I always thought 'The Zuck' was a tall dude, he carries the look of a classic tall guy. Small head , Broad long neck, stocky Upperbody and he wears well fitting T shirts. That convinced me he's about 6ft - 6ft 2 . Then i saw footage of him Next to Obama, and i was shocked lol! I was like is Obama really that tall, then i found out he's 6ft1 and Zuck was a towering 5 ft 7 lol. Good thing he'll ever need Hieght in his life anyway.

Actually, he is not, Jeff.

he's way shorter than obama, definitely below eye level

he looks 5-6 or 5-7 at the most
Sam said on 27/Oct/15
Didn't he claims 5'8" or am I mistaken? If so it might be worth mentioning at the top.
jj said on 7/Jun/15
he looks short...obama towered over him...he was below eye level..obama is supposedly 6-1...obama had about 5.5 to 6 inches on him...I think zuckberg is only 5-6.5 to 5.7 ...he looks little
Dionisio Rojas said on 6/Jan/15
I thought this guy was smaller, around 1.65 whatta surptise!!!. thx for adding him.
Panda said on 31/Dec/14
Finally Mark Zuckerberg is on here. Although I'd have thought that he'd be a full 5'8" since on the SNL skit I thought Zuck slightly edged out Jesse Eisenberg (who was also probably wearing dress shoes). Anyway 5'7.5" sounds right.
Clive said on 31/Dec/14
Click Here
This definitely proves that he and Jesse are the same height. However, Andy seems 5'9.75 rather than 5'9.5.
Sam said on 31/Dec/14
From memory, I thought Jesse Eisenberg actually edged him out when they appeared together on SNL but in photos they look very even and both maybe about 1.5 inches under Andy Samberg (dressed as Zuckerberg), in some Zuckerberg actually seems taller but Eisenberg is slouching there.
