I haven’t been able to find many quotes of him claiming his height, but I did find an Instagram post of his Black Sails audition, in which he claims 6 foot: Click Here

Regardless, he’s no more than a solid 5’10. Being seen next to the likes of William H. Macy and Toby Schmitz makes that apparent.

This is the guy they should have taken for the part of Geralt in the new netflix Witcher show. When I saw him in black sails first thing I thought of. No more than 5'10" flat.

He looked shorter that Toby and Luke Arnold. And when he is hanging in his last scene he appears really short.

Taller than Norman Reedus for sure.

I just LOVE him!
I think his unique look and the way he holds himself is fantastic.
BUT ONE THING FOR SURE, i VOTE FOR LONG HAIR EVERY TIME AROUND

black sails spends a lot of time on uneven ground so really hard to tell heights. He actually looks a lot shorter than Toby Stephens in shots.

Have you seen the shape of the feet in the picture above? He’s almost tip-toeing
No one measuring 5’10’’ use 7 cm lifts, plus heels.

With hair like that, he belongs in the rock music industry and I honestly thought he was!
He looks a bit taller than his 5ft10, to my eyes anyway!

If he us any taller than 177cms, he's got a huge head...
Johan said on 3/Sep/16
I wouldn't have thought he was any taller than Toby at 5ft 9.

I agree with the guy below me this is one show that really plays with height as many of my estimates were a bit off. Toby Stephens being the worst I thought he looked 5ft 11 next to Tom and big Ray.

Everyone in BlackSails is shorter than I think! It must be the thick boots they all must wear to match with the period. I thought Zach (Charles Vane) was 179cm, Toby Stephens (Capt. Flint) was 176cm, and Luke Arnold (John Silver) was 175cm. I guess they are all at least 1cm shorter. LOL. Regardless, they are all dwarfed by Tom Hopper (Billy Bones) anyways.

Worked with him before...seemed more 5'11" - 6'...
Andrea said on 31/Mar/16
I haven't seen Black Sails, but he looks more 5'11-6' here, if Ray Stevenson is really 6'3.5...

Looks like 5'8'' in Black Sails, or a weak 5'9''
Andrea said on 6/Jan/16
Is he really this short, Rob? I didn't think he was under 5'11 when i saw him in Shameless! It's maybe 2-3 seasons since he left, so maybe i can't remember very well but i really thought he was 5'11-6'! One thing, he doesn't seem a guy with a good posture at times, like in the photo above...

I got around 5ft 10 feel from him, I wouldn't have guessed much taller.
