He must've shrunk or he was never 5'11". In 2008, he's not much over 5'8". I had Independence Day 1996 on vhs.👍

5ft 11.5 Scott Bakula had two inches on him on Enterprise in 2004, which would put Spiner at 5ft 9.5 range. Must be under by now, likely 5ft 9 range.

I agree with him; 5'11 isn't that short. You were never 5'11 though dude. :P
I can see roughly an inch or so taller than Rob in pics. I also believe he was a low 5'10 range peak, as listed.

Editor RobDidn't look less than 5ft 10 in Next Generation, although in person I think he'd lost a little height by that stage.

5'10 peak sounds okay. What is very noticeable is his very long arms. He has the arms of a 6'2 guy.

Watching the older episodes of TNG, there are a few height discrepancies. Sometimes Spiner looks taller than Stewart, and sometimes, Stewart looks taller than Spiner. I think they were roughly the same height in the TNG era. As Patrick was in his late 40s to early 50s at the time, he probably lost a little height. I think a 5'10" peak for Stewart is very realistic, but I don't think Brent was ever taller than 5'10".

Editor Rob I'm sure in that episode him and wheaton did appear pretty close and Parsons had more than just 2 inches on them, he could look at least 3 on them. That photo with Brent looks like Jim/Wil could be slightly further away.

He usually looked an inch taller than Patrick Stewart in TNG.
There is a scene in one of the episodes where Data is playing a character on the holodeck (some Shakespearian role if I remember correctly). They walk with Picard on the corridor, Data wearing flat costume footwear, while Picard is in his regular boots, and he looks around 1.5-inches taller than him. Then, in the next scene Data is back in his boots and again he's an inch taller than the captain. I guess both Stewart and Spiner wore 2 inches of footwear (small heels plus minor lifts) on the show.

He looks to have 3cm on Rob and 4cm on Jenny. 5ft10.75 peak (179cm) in the late 1980's, weak 5ft10 today (177.5cm) seems right.

With Rob, Brent looks 5'9.5", and with Jenny, Brent looks 5'10.5". Considering his sneakers were a 1/2" thicker than Jenny's sneakers, i would put Brent at 5'10" maximum, and 5'9.5" minimum.

Just had my photo taken with Brent at a London-based Star Trek convention. I'm a weak 5'6, and he definitely looks a good 3-4" taller than me in the photo (he didn't seem to be wearing massive lifts/heels at the time. I'd give him 5'9.5-5'10.

David Larroquette was more than 6'4 when Night Court was filmed. More like a weak 6'5.
Anyway. I always had Brent at 180cm flat (5'11) When TNG was filmed, but yes, decent lifts were in play. So 5'10 (178cm) for Brent in TNG time, nowadays a 176cm (5'9.25). Patrick Stewart a 175cm (5'9 peak) and a 173-174cm today.
Always one+ inch between Brent and Patrick, or better said Jean-Luc and Mr. Data,
3 inches between Picard and Geordie,
4 inches between Data and Geordie (LeVar = 5'6 NO LIFTS during the show).

@Runt
He looks so young there!
But yeah, I think giving him a current AND peak height makes sense Rob, he's struggling to look 177cm in these pics, and at age 60, it's completely reasonable a 5'10 flat guy would be 176-177cm range.
I would like to add though, that I have ALWAYS said an even 5ft10 for "Mr. Data", no more, no less, though if I had to guess, I'd say there was a chance he was a fraction under 5'10.
The simple fact is, him and Stewart's height will always be a bit debatable, becuase liftswe're in play, but in any case, I'd say Stewart was 175-176cm, and Spiner was 177-178cm.

at first glance he looks around the same height with Rob and Mamun, which would make him 176 at the very most...
however,he looks 5 cm taller than Jenny...
but then again,he had thicker footwear on and his hair makes him look taller than he really is

I've just seen an episode of TNG where he stands eye to eye with 6'3" Michael Dorn (plus count Dorn's Klingon forehead) and Dorn clearly towers over him. Also, there is an episode where Data is rehearsing Dickens' A Christmas Carol on the holodeck, and dressed as Scrooge, he is wearing night slippers. When Spiner stands next to 5'9" Patrick Stewart (close to 5'11" in his boots/lifts), he is clearly shorter than him. I'd say 5'9.5" or maximum 5'10".

I find 5'10 or 5'11 probable since Data, the character, was meant to be a prototypical human and that is roughly average height.

5'10" looks generous... Weird, always thought he was 5'11-ish. I agree with Davidoff, strong 5'9". He could be another one of those Ed Harris 5'9" guys.

I would consider a small downgrade Rob, I think a 5"10 peak may have been possible however. He is nearly 60.

What type of sneakers do you wear Rob?

Editor Rob for celebrity encounters I take it...this year I've went to 5 or 6 events and have worn adidas samoa which give dead on an inch, except one where I had superstars, which ain't as comfy even after I broke the buggers in for a month.
I will always try to mention if an actor has less/more or equal. 1 inch is ideal because a good amount, especially if they are wearing a dress shoe are in the 1-1.1 range.

5'9 sounds about right, I also always thought he was about 5,11 but then there was somtimes an occasion on TNG that he did look somewhat smaller than 5'11 and I also heard somewhere he was 5'11, not in these photos , he might even be a tad over 5'8 unshod. This one suprized me.

This arouses further scrutiny of Patrick Stewart and whether he was ever a solid 5ft 9in; I thought so until now.

Two pics and looks 5'9 in both. frakes and dorn's inflated given heights probably gave the impression of this guy being taller.

In TNG he really gives the appearance of being taller. I would have guessed he was 6 ft. He was noticeably taller than Patrick Stewart. Blessed with long legs perhaps?

'Data' is starting to get old. I wonder how they might ever work that in(?). Then again, in the last movie he was killed off..technically.

I always thought he was near 5-11 from the show. Doesn't look it there though.

5"9.75 peak - 5"9.25 current. He does look a little compressed.

I gotta say he looks 5'9" in that photo. I am drawing a line based on eye-level and I don't see more than an inch of difference. So my guess is he is 5'9" now. Maybe more of an inch of height lost which is unusual.

I think Brent must have lost some height. As others have mentioned, he was clearly taller than Patrick Stewart on TNG. My suspicion is that he was closer to 5'11" in his prime.

I'm just watching this episode (all in all 3 to be exact).
Connor Trinnear is a 181cm type!
I'd say Brent Spiner WAS 180cm (5'11) during Star Trek TNG and nowadays (I think, he's in his mid-fifties) is a 178cm-179cm...
Remember: He was always a tad taller than a lift-wearing Patrick Stewart (Picard), who was 175cm during the series. 175cm plus lifts and still taller. I don't think Spiner wore lifts. So...
And don't forget, that he is a lot bulkier today, making him look a little shorter than he really is....
179cm (5'10.5") for Mr. Spiner.

Editor Rob I met Spiner this month...my honest assesment - based on him wearing a Nike Free style shoe so we both had very similar footwear in the 1-1.1 inch range - is that he appeared more 176-177cm. That range. 178? Hmm...but he is around 60 so can have lost something.

There is one scene in the Enterprise episode 'Borderland' when Spiner and Bakula are standing side by side in the ship's transporter. Bakula looks two inches taller.

No, him and Patrick Stewart were never the same height on Star Trek. "Data" always had good 1.5 inch on "Jean-Luc". (Stewart= 176cm, Spiner= 180cm). Spiner also had solid 4 inches on 5'7 LeVar Burton, Stewart had a bit more than 2 inches on Burton.

Him and Patrick Stewart were always about the same height on Star Trek, so I'd say 5'10.5"-5'11".

Siddig El Fadil (Alexander Siddig) is a plain, simple 183cm (6ft). Compared Spiner to other cast-members I have to accept, that Spiner is a plain 180cm (5'11) guy, just as Rob has him listed here.

I'm not sure on Spiner. I always thought he was more like 5 foot 9ish. In the crossover episode him and Levar Burton (who is not a tall guy) were in with Alexander Siddig (Dr. Julian Bashir) he looked noticeably shorter than Siddig. I'm not sure of Siddig's height, but this site lists him at 5 foot 11-3/4. Maybe Spiner is 5 foot 10? He definitely was more than an inch shorter than Siddig and perhaps close to 2.

John Turtorro is listed as 184cm so Spiner looks about 180cm in comparison. Even if Turturro is a full 185cm Spiner still looks in the 5'11 range.

Okay, watched some TNG episodes recently. Spiner was no 182cm, but more a 181cm - typ during the series.

I think Spiner was a weak 5'11.75" 182cm during theTNG show, but a solid 5'11" (180cm) these days (saw convention pics). He surely wears no lifts.

Editor Rob I honestly thought now looks 179cm, he had good stance in 80's trek and did look legit 5ft 11 range
