imdb has Sidney Lassick at 5 ft 5..
Arch Stanton said on 2/Dec/23
Sandy!! Yup, he was almost as creepy as Richard Attenborough in 10 Rillington Place! His poor wife Lelia Goldini in it was almost unrecognisable! It isn't a nice film, but then horror films aren't, and I wouldn't have recommended it normally hehe! The basement scene certainly had the element of surprise!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Dec/23
Newsom towered over him last night - 5ft11is definitely a maximum and the average guess could be closer in fact
Sandy Cowell said on 1/Dec/23
Hello Archie!

I bought, and watched, the film ‘The Unseen’ and couldn’t believe the film with Sidney Lassick, which you recommended to me. What a contrast to the sweet, innocent man he played in ‘One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest’! I had to watch that classical movie straight away afterwards, and I’ve been watching it ever since.

Please, Rob, could Sidney have a page on Celebheights? He looks tall next to little Danny de Vito, but tiny next to Jack Nicholson.

Ron gets 5ft11. It’s amazing how some stars get their comments!

He's no more than 5-9. He wears boots with lifts

There was a clip of him playing baseball with other politicians and he really didn't look any taller than 5-9 physically
Arch Stanton said on 30/Nov/23
I've said for a while that 5 ft 11 is on the generous side given his footwear! But he's no 5 ft 7 or 8 which some claim. I think 5 ft 10 would be nearer what he is.
Mickie said on 28/Nov/23
Yeah, some of his shoes do look pretty suspect.
Editor Rob
A shame his navy records were heavily redacted, else his measurement would be verified.

Are you aware of the "bootgate" surrounding him, Rob? Click Here
Editor Rob
Yeah I've seen some of that talk.

A few pairs do look like they could pass for elevator cowboy boots.
Meade Skelton said on 25/Sep/23
He looks even with Melania Trump, who is 5'11 and wears heels. I'm thinking he's at least 5'11 also and wears boots. Most cowboy boots are only 1.5 inches, not even 2 inches . Liberal media lies about his being "short"

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Sep/23
Weaker 5ft11 I'd say...Biden edged him out
Arch Stanton said on 3/Sep/23
Maybe it's nearer 1.5 inches he's getting from the boots then. 5'10.5 is possible. I think we can rule out under 5 ft 10 anyway!
Editor Rob
Yeah, anything sub 5ft 10 I'd rule out. Anything between 10-11 looks arguable.
Abdul 5'10 said on 2/Sep/23
Minimum 180 and Maximum 182 ish
Arch Stanton said on 1/Sep/23

Are these elevator boots or just regular cowboy boots?? To me it looks like there is a slope going up the middle of the shoe from the side and his feet look awkwardly positioned in them.
Editor Rob
Just a cowboy boot.
Arch Stanton said on 1/Sep/23
Rob, you might want to check out the boots this guy wears. He would surely look about 6 ft 1 in those boots he wears!! Click Here Here with Piers (who has been looking more 5 ft 11 range now in a lot of pics), he's further away from the camera. Looks like he's on his toes in his boots! 5 ft 10 range is more accurate I think.
Editor Rob
The type of Heel he wears isn't as much as 2 inches though. There is a greater likelihood he's under 5ft 11 than over.
Ben - 186cm said on 30/Aug/23
@Arch Stanton

He doesn’t look 6’1 in the boots. Even if the boots themselves are 3 inches you’ve gotta remember that the rest of the public is also wearing shoes of some kind, and since most shoes give around an inch, he’d likely look at best 6 feet.

They’re probably not even 3 inches anyway. Probably about 2 ins, which is why he’s able to pull off 5’11 range despite likely falling between 5’9-5’10 barefoot.

Ron looks 5'11ish to Trump's 6'1

That’s your view. I have my own view as well. 😀
MGK said on 29/Aug/23
I would have said around 5’11 based on his pics next to Trump, but he only looked a little taller than 5’9 Pence at the debate and 5’11 Chris Christie was clearly taller. Weak 5’10 guy who can look 5’11-6’0 due to his big frame/possibly wearing thick shoes.
Arch Stanton said on 28/Aug/23
5 ft 11 is definitely generous, in the big ass boots he wears he would surely be looking around 6 ft 1! I think he's nearer 5 ft 10 barefoot!

Ron looks 6’0 ish next to 6’1 tall Trump.

Maybe 181.5 or 182. So 6’0 ish is passable for his height

Wouldn't have guessed him that short.

How much height is Ron getting from a pair of boots like this? Click Here
Editor Rob
Depending on insole, I'd go with about 1.75 inches.
J.C. said on 11/Jun/23
Left-Wing Twitter users and News outlets are making up false rumors about his height so I actually thought he was short-ish. People who are politically left-leaning claim DeSantis is 5'9", some go far enough as to claim he's 5'7". I hope nobody takes this information seriously as Ron never told anyone his height (I don't think). Looking at a height comparison, I'd say he's either 5'11" or 5'10". Right-Wing sources claim he's 6'0" or 5'11". Some foolish people even claim he's 6'1". Anyway, I think 5'11" or 5'10" without the shoe lift could be his real height.

Remember, please don't take the false height claims seriously, please do your own research. NEVER take the media bias seriously.
Histhename said on 10/Jun/23
Hey Rob, how much height do you reckon the guy on the left gained? It was advertised as 5 inches (165cm to 179.5cm) but I’m not so sure.

Editor Rob
Did look near 5 inches gained
Darksol64 said on 7/Jun/23
@ Noah23

That's ridiculous.

It's virtually impossible to get 3" of lifts in a pair of boots like that. If you did, your walk would be so strange it wouldn't even be funny. And you'd wreck your knees in short order. The most total height he could be getting from footwear is 2 inches, an inch over typical footwear.

As I said before look at his overall proportions, length of his arms and shoulders. To suggest he's 5'7 or even 5'8 is just wrong, and insulting to Rob to suggest that he's off by a whopping 3.5 inches in his area of expertise. That's not going to happen.

My guess still stands at a hair over 5'11; but I can see the argument for anywhere between 5'10 and 5'11.5. No more no less.
Editor Rob
I can see the case for a 5ft 10 Ron, but a 5ft 8-9 seems impossible.

He's about 5'7.5 - 5'8.25

He wears a 2' heeled cowboy boot, and most likely has a 2-3' lift in them.

Oh, I’m surprised Ron DeSantis is this tall, to be honest, haha. I saw some sources saying he’s 5’9” before. Next to Trump here, I could buy 5’10”-5’11” as a possibility for him. I don’t know either of their footwear or lifts (if there are any on) in this photo too.

Darksol64 said on 27/Jan/23
@ Arch Stanton

4 inch boots is definitely a bunch of BS. Looking at his arms and proportions, there's no way he's even 5'9, forget about less. His arms look just slightly shorter than Trump's in the pic, and Trump used to be a legit 6'2. (or at least very-strong 6'1, 6'1.5 or so)

I can't even believe 5'10 for him honestly again because of his proportions. I'd be absolutely astounded if he measured less than 5'11. Maybe 5'10 7/8 extreme low or something but I bet he's really close to flat 6'0 very first thing out of bed and 5'11 plus a little change at a low.

Keep in mind there's pics online of Trump where his feet are completely out of his shoes from wearing lifts, which probably gives him +3 inches total, 1 from the shoe and 2 from lifts. Not sure if he's wearing them in this pic though.

Rob, Roger Stone says DeSantis wears 4 inch cowboy boots and did a poll asking if his real height was 5 ft 6, 7 or 8. Click Here Obviously exaggerated but DeSantis does look to wear big cowboy boots a lot. Worth looking into as he might be shorter than we think. I emailed you yesterday as I couldn't comment on here on my iPad

you couldn't come up with a better reason to dispute his height? lol
Slim1.75m said on 24/Jan/23
Rob do you think desantis could edge brad pitt and george clooney.
Arch Stanton said on 24/Jan/23
I had a look at him and think 177-78cm range is quite possible minus the boots, but I think we can rule out under 5 ft 9 as Roger suggests!! He is a heavy set guy, I've seen 215 claimed for him but I think he looks minimum 230 pounds now.

If he's always in a cowboy heel I could see the case for 5ft 10 (plus his stocky appearance can amplify a shorter figure).

But Roger is taking the mickey with that poll!

He may be a hair under 5’11” but I doubt much worse next to Trump

Yeah 5'11" is a bit of surprise in photos by himself he looks short-ish due to his squat build I suppose.

Biden is closer to 5'11.5 than 6'0 in this photo, and also the angle and the shoes are not very clear, but overall I agree.
DeSantis is 5'11/180cm.

Mitt Romney: 6ft1¾
Matt Gaetz:: 6ft1½
Herschel Walker: 6ft1½
Rick Scott: 6ft0½
Kevin McCarthy: 5ft10

Lindsey Graham: 5ft7
Jim Jordan: 5ft6

No definite 2in Trump eye level is noticeably higher the photo from last year my real question is how would DeSantis look next to a young Bush jr
Gian 181cm said on 9/Nov/22
It could be the angle of the photo, but Trump appears to be 6'1 in this photo (or the DeSantis 5'10.5).
5'11 is totally believable.

5'11/180cm solid.
Darksol64 said on 9/Nov/22
@ DanTF Yeah assuming he's wearing the lifts in this pic he's barely taller if not same height. One pic I saw his foot was completely out of the shoe which means the actual lift was 1.5 inches easy. Maybe even a little more.

If he is in regular shoes he's got a good 1.5-2 inches on him. I see a near 2 inch difference in the pic.

As for Ron he looks like a pretty legit 5'11 guy. If he dips below it would only be a little before bed or extreme low.
Cooper Clarke 169cm 5'6.5 said on 9/Nov/22
@DanTF Trump isn't as short as 5ft 11 though. He's still at least 6ft 0 for his current height.

DanTF said on 9/Nov/22
Given that Trump is never seen without his hefty lifts, he's no more than 5'11 himself. DeSantis doesn't look the full 5'11, more like 5'10.5 max.
