i still think hes closer to 5'10 that 5'11. i think maybe frank was fooled by his footwear. but he has seen him in person and i havent. but i dunno. after looking at photos i just cant see him taller. its only a .5 to 1 inch difference. so i guess it dont really matter

Frank2 is correct, Pitt is a legit 5
Midget said on 28/Jun/09
I'M with Frank2 on this one, Pitt hits 180cm at some stage during the day,every day, even if it is just his morning height.May shrink down to 178.5cm or 179cm maybe.

Doug, I mean his eyes. And the area around his
eys.

When I watched Troy, the skin under his eyelids was
really weird. As if it was totally gone inside and
then filled with something to make it more normal.
Dural said on 28/Jun/09
No Doug, not only his teeth also his ears and acne scars - type brad pitt ears in google images. Concerning height I stick with 5'10".

I agree Rob G. its real tough to decipher a half inch, so my main basis for believing he is 5'10.5 is that he looked 5'10ish in the early nineties and most people round up their height.
Rob G said on 28/Jun/09
To be fair Pitt is not a 5'10" flat guy, but IMO 5'10.5" suits him well, close enought to 5'11" as he probably is in the morning, not over though
Doug said on 28/Jun/09
Ali, you mean the weird big jaw line? Apparently the only cosmetic surgery he has had is on his teeth. If you look at old pictures of him I think its natural, a very distinctive trait. His jaw looked a lot more prominent in the mid to late 90s though, I don't know if anybody noticed that it doesn't look as chiselled as it did in the 1990s. Usually a big jaw is a result of too much growth hormone, which is why guys with acromaly like Great Khali have that iron looking jaw. Perhaps too much growth hormone went on his jaw and not his legs lol.

Hey Frank2 - Good lifts like Pitt wears don't "appear to be lifts". That's the point. Like Ali said, Pitt looks natural with lifts because they balance out his shorter legs and make him "appear" to be balanced and proportioned like 5'11".
Frank2 said on 27/Jun/09
"Frank2 says on 26/Jun/09
Thanks. When I've seen Pitt, he's never appeared to wear special shoes. I still think he's a solid 5'11".

That's odd, because nearly every picture I've ever seen of him shows him wearing heels or obvious lifts."

Not odd at all. When I've seen him, he doesn't appear to be wearing lifts. Pitt does not look like a 5'10" guy.
Ali said on 27/Jun/09
Brad Pitt is 5'10 ish.

He has a long upper body, but shorter legs. He wears
lifts, which give him 1-2 inches extra. So when
he wears lifts, it really isn't very noticeable.

Arnold is the opposite. He has a short torso, but
longer legs. He also wears lifts which makes his
legs ridicuously long.

Is it just me or does Brad Pitt have a sort of a artificial
face. I mean the ladies really like him, but there is something
about his face. Maybe plastic surgery or.
delphonic said on 27/Jun/09
Vegas - C'mon dude, stop posting pics where Pitt is standing on a 2-3 inch mound of dirt and is still shorter than Clinton! I guarantee Pitt is getting the same at least 2 inch footwear boost as Clinton is, Pitt's are just far more stealth than Clinton's cowboy boots. Pitt likes to hide his lift boots under long droopy pant legs...he is a pro! If you honestly analyze all the pics, it's obvious that if Clinton is still 6'.5 barefoot, than Pitt is 5'9.5 barefoot. End of story.
Antonio said on 27/Jun/09
As far as your 2nd post.

Here is another Clooney - Obama pic you didn't use.

Antonio said on 27/Jun/09
Vegas - I didn't choose the Pitt/Clinton pics you chose because Brad is standing on higher ground. Look closely. Brad is wearing boots or big shoes (probably with lifts) also. That's why he hides them so well. By the way, I only see 1.5" heels on Bills boots, not 2".

The video is ridiculous to use because Brad is 2' closer to the camera, which would give him an advantage. It is also taken from a low stance, shooting up. That would give the closer Pitt, even more of an advantage. Anybody else with tv, news, or movie experience will verify this.

In you 2nd to the last picture, actually verifies my last statement. Low camera angle with the shorter guy closer to the camera. That picture is also useless.

Your last picture only proves to me that a probably 5-10.5 to 5-11 George Bush is standing almost even with Clinton. Why was the supposedly 5-11 Pitt so much shorter than Bill? He should be as close or closer to Clintons height than George is. Thanks for that picture. I should have used it last night, but didn't. In that photo, Obama and George the elder are obviously standing a little further from the camera along with another low camera angle. Also, in that pic, one will notice that Bill is at attention and Obama is leaning over talking to Bush the elder.

Even though in my previous post, even though Pitt seems so much shorter than Clinton, I am not saying he is 5-9. I am giving him the benefit of the doubt and still sticking to 5-10 for Brad.
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
Well if Clinton is 6'1" barefoot, that makes him about the 6'3" he probably is in those huge cowboy boots. That would make Pitt 5'11"-6' max in those boots. Barefoot? Take a guess.
John S said on 27/Jun/09
Wow, I never saw those pics of Pitt and Clinton before? The diffrence in there height is crazy. NO WAY is Pitt 5'11 or 6'0.
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
There is a definate four inch height difference between Pitt and Clinton that's all I can see. Given that Clinton looks 6' compared to Obama, you;d expect CLintonro be only an inch taller than Pitt? But four inches?
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
Frank2, how do you explain the big height difference between Pitt and Clinton? If Pitt is a strong 5'11" why isn't he close in height to Bill Clinton who is clearly not as tall as even 6'1.25 Obama?
Vegas said on 27/Jun/09
Antonio says on 27/Jun/09
That would mean 6'1.25" Obama has in the neighborhood of 3.5-5" on Brad Pitt.

5 inches lol and you base this on a few inaccurate photos, i have posted video proof that pitt is taller than clooney and their measured madame tussauds figures pitt is also taller

clooney is slightly closer to the camera but as expected he wouldn't be more than 3 inches shorter than obama, don't forget john mccain was tops 4 inches shorter than obama, you believe pitt is shorter than mccain lol (or you believe a guy in his mid 70s was wearing huge lifts/elevator shoes like a few others on here claimed) Click Here
Vegas said on 27/Jun/09
Antonio says on 27/Jun/09
How do explain these:

pretty easy, on purpose you picked out photos where pitt looks shorter than clinton and clinton shorter than obama, i can easily do the opposite

first things first though clintons in big a** cowboy boots giving him roughly 2 inches over his barefoot height Click Here

if i wanted to downgrade clinton i would post this video but it doesn't accurately show the truth Click Here

not accurate but if i wanted to downgrade obama... Click Here

this is the best photo, clinton and obama are roughly the same height, camera straight on Click Here
Ronald said on 27/Jun/09
I say. Lets just put brad anywhere between 5 9 and 5 10 abd be done with it
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
If you take into account the Obama pics where Clinton looks lower than 6'1.5" and nearer a flat 6', Pitt at a legit 5'11" seems very unlikely!
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
All I know is that Pitt is wearing his usual boots in the CLinton pics which give him 1.5-2 inches above barefoot. WHile Clinton is also wearing generous footwear if Pitt is a legit 5'11 in those pics I see a 6'3" Clinton. I see it more as a 5'9.5" and 6'1.5" personally.
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
Frank2. Clooney knows Pitt wears lifts. Why do you think he would have jokingly said "He's tall. He's like 6-1. It's irritating". He just a better job than anybody else in disguising them unlike Mr. Stallone but it is obvious from the shape of a lot of his shoes and how on many occasions he seems to reach near 6'1" at premieres. I think Pitt is around 177or 178 cm. If he was a real 5'11" he would not look that way compared to Clinton and in Hollywood he would have 6' at least on his resume. For somebody who has confessed to have an issue with their height as he has said he wishes he was two inches taller and has immaculate posture to look as tall as possible it is odd that we have him at a legit 5'11".
Doug said on 27/Jun/09
Pitt looks 5'9" next to CLinton. Clinton looks 6'1" in those pics but looks at his footwear. He is wearing huge cowboy type shoes, and seems to have a footwear advantage. Just look at Pitt in those pics, now take off the big boots, does that look like a legit 5'11" to you?
derek d said on 27/Jun/09
Antonio - The only thing that can explain for Pitt looking that small next to Clinton is if Obama is wearing lifts in the pictures with Clinton. I mean Pitt looks 5'8 next to Clinton if he really is 6 ft even now a days. And we know Brad is not 5'8. Keep in mind the Clinton/Pitt picture a few years old I believe. Clifton could of lost height since then but thats unlikely.
adam said on 27/Jun/09
Clinton has at least 4 inches on Pitt.
Antonio said on 27/Jun/09

Thanks. When I've seen Pitt, he's never appeared to wear special shoes. I still think he's a solid 5'11".

That's odd, because nearly every picture I've ever seen of him shows him wearing heels or obvious lifts.

How do explain these:

6'1.25" Obama 1.5 - 2.0" taller than a post-op Bill Clinton (Bill has obviously shrunk, mainly due to his heart surgery) These pics are from a couple of separate meetings. Clinton is probably only around 6' nowadays. If Bill is 6-1 Obama is around 6'3" and we know he isn't.
Click Here
Click Here
Click Here

Post-op Bill with Brad. Clinton has at least 2-3" on Brad. Bill is wearing 1.5" heels, but it looks like Brad is also, although it's harder to see. He probably has lifts on also. That would mean 6'1.25" Obama has in the neighborhood of 3.5-5" on Brad Pitt. There is no way he is a real world 5'11". It just doesn't work out. If Pitt is 5'11", then Clinton is roughly 6-3 to 6-4, but again we know he isn't.

Finally, If Brad were actually 5-11, he would be claiming at least 6'. You know that Frank2.
John said on 26/Jun/09
How come all these people claim to "when the have seen Pitt" he appears to be a solid 5'11. Not one of you who was a extra, or someone that bumped into him have a pic of proof. Sorry but on this website, ya can type what ya say his height it. Ya need a Pic as proff. And unil someone gives that pic up, no one will know his height.
Frank2 said on 26/Jun/09
Thanks. When I've seen Pitt, he's never appeared to wear special shoes. I still think he's a solid 5'11".
bam said on 26/Jun/09
frank2, he is definately 3 inches taller in those pics your reffering to. Do yourself a favor and look at the heels. At 5'11+military posture+heels and a slight lift, he should look an easy 6ft. The thing is he looks 5'11,5'11.25 with a boost. Reguardless, I give your sightings a lot of weight.
Anonymous said on 26/Jun/09
I really think he is 5'10.5 give or take .25". he usually looks 6'0.5" - 6'1" in shoes. i would bet he is getting .75" out of his lifts (keep in mind that a 1.25" lift at the heel will probably only give .75", and that is pretty big). He is probably getting 1.25 - 1.75" out of his shoes (not including the lifts). thats about 2-2.5" over his bare foot height which is pretty significant and puts him at a strong 5'10.
bam said on 26/Jun/09
i wanted to mention he is 5'10ish for sure in the pics. I still think 5'11 is possible. Anything under 5'10 is crazy, no offense strauss. Strauss did you take a picture with pitt?
Barry Langcaster said on 25/Jun/09
There is a great possibility this guy wears lifts , 2 inch lifts would make him up past the 5'11 range ( around 5'11.5)I don't think he wears those .I say Brad is 5'9.5 flat, with normal footware is 5'10.5 or so which is why he most often apears in the 5'10 range, but I think the lifts he wears are more like 1.75 inch ones with these he can be a good clip over 5'11 about 5'11.25.
J.J. said on 25/Jun/09
'Rob' the doctor said if any magic was going to happen about only 5% of people will grow after 19 years & that's going to be 1.5" max(even though it's quite rare he said ). He said although 21 is the 'Official' age people nowadays stop around 17-19 on average & the extreme sides are 14 for boys & 12 for girls(he's met this girl 12 years old 6'0.8" and never grew she's now 16 her parents were worried at that time & also a 6'3.875" boy of 14.5 years who is now 18.5 & still the same)
the reality of the situation is that he said I'll be lucky if I grow over an inch; even though you never know.
'rob' it's really surprising the things he said, by the way my Sister 4 example was 5'9.5" @ 14years I think. He also said once you reach you full potential you just stop! Whether it be as early as 14 or as late as 20years.
James said on 25/Jun/09
Rob do you believe what poster strauss says?
Frank2 said on 25/Jun/09
"Paul says on 24/Jun/09
Brad Pitt with 5'8.25" Casey Affleck. Pitt, with obvious footwear advantage, is about 2 inches taller"

I see three inches. Plus each time I've seen Pitt he's never looked like a 5'10" guy. He's always been my height. On one occasion when he was wearing running shoes with large heels, he was a little taller than me.
Doug said on 25/Jun/09
Strauss that's very interesting. But whatever anybody says it won't convince Rob to believe Pitt is any lower than 5'11'" as it would mess up his other estimates, Matt Damon etc. Few here would believe Pitt is anything below 177cm. I can believe 5'9.5" at lowest.
RisingForce said on 25/Jun/09
I heard Pitt was 155-160 for Fight Club which seems about right. I'd say he was atleast 180 in Troy.
Rob G said on 25/Jun/09
Wow bam in that pictures Pitt seems to have roughly 2 inches on Casey Affleck, I meman wow! Pitt looks every bit 5'10" there.
Strauss said on 25/Jun/09
Great photos from bam and Paul. That how Pitt looked in Berlin when we met him last winter. Casey and Pitt appear to have similar footwear heights. Again, the shoulders are a great comparison guide. Pitt wears hats for height. He was wearing the 'pork pie' hat that is hot now. Given what we know about Casey's height we can extrapolate that Brad is solidly 5'9". His short legs stand out in 'bam's' two photos. BTW There is a rumor in Berlin that Pitt had to obtain a German Motorcycle license to legally ride because he was 'working' and not on 'vacation'. The procedure is that when a foreigner applies you must be measured w/o shoes and in Centimeters/metric. Metric also with weight. The rumor is that Pitt was rushed quickly through the biostatistic parts and his true 'stocking feet' height was entered into the computer, before he could try to 'brownnose the clerk' or whatever. Pitt's height is recorded at 175 cm. The German clerks don't fudge heights, because they can get fired. I believe its still non-public info, but I could be wrong. It is definitely making the rumor circuit. Again, I'm 6 foot in my stockings. He was gracious to our group and I stood to shake his hand and he's the exact height of my 5'9" brother-in-law.

Without the hat, he's closer to 5'10 for sure...
bam said on 25/Jun/09
paul, theres no way he's only 2 inches taller in those pics. But, he looks 5'11ish at best. And he is for sure in lifts. I'm perplexed.
Rob G said on 25/Jun/09
Great find Paul, taking that into cosideration Pitt can be even as low as 5'10" flat, those pictures are really telling. Even if Pitt has 3 inches over there over Casey Affleck, without this shoes he would still end up at about 5'10.5"
Doug said on 25/Jun/09
Pitt was in unbelievable shape for Fight Club. You don't get that toned without severe dieting and over exercise. Very few people would be able to maintain that kind of tone without an extremely strict low calorie diet and hours upon hours of working out every day. Pitt probably spent lots of time in saunas for that role to sweat off poundage too! Body fat was about 5% in that film, unbelievable. I must admit I thought Pitt was taller than Norton in Fight CLub! I had no idea he was wearing lift boots at the time.
Ronald said on 25/Jun/09
execellent analysis by Pal there. I have always maintained that Brad pitt is anywhere between 5 9 and 5 10.
Anonymous said on 25/Jun/09
Paul, Excellent observations!. Also Pitt has a slight more advantage in the heels as well. But I agree with your height estimate for Pitt.
Paul said on 24/Jun/09
Brad Pitt with 5'8.25" Casey Affleck. Pitt, with obvious footwear advantage, is about 2 inches taller:

Now take a closer look at Brad's feet. Notice difference in height between his medial malleolus (that bony protuberance on the inside of the ankle) and that of Sam Shepard, in normal dress shoes: Click Here

Pitt is clearly getting about an inch advantage over the normal shoes that Shepard and Affleck are wearing. In other words, if they were barefoot, Pitt would only have about an inch on Casey Affleck. He's 5'9.5" at best. Nothing more.
Leung said on 24/Jun/09
In Fight Club he was 150-155 but he was a skinny ferret in that movie. Norton and Pitt both lost considerable weight for Fight Club.
Leung said on 24/Jun/09
Pitt was reportedly around 190lb for Troy and he looked it.
Clay said on 24/Jun/09
Klem...Im shorter than Pitt, 186 pounds but Im not sure what my body fat % is. Im pretty toned though Id imagine its 10-12% or something. He could have been as high as 185 at 5'11 in Troy...the guy was jacked.
James said on 24/Jun/09
Well rob I don't think he's a strong 5'11
Doug said on 24/Jun/09
Oh we do agree Rob G!! Maybe Pitt is 5'11" out of bed but he is somewhere beteen 177 and 180 at whatever time of the day. Remember how short Pitt looked to barely 6'1" David Schwimmer in Friends. He was three inches shorter.
Rob G said on 24/Jun/09

Well probably, but that still puts Pitt at 5'10.5"
Anonymous said on 24/Jun/09
In Mr. and Mrs. Smith it also had his weight as 180 lbs which is a joke. I beleieve I read he was 150 in Fight Club, normally 155 and 175 in Troy. He has a very slight frame, so 175 with his frame will (and did) look jacked. I believe he is a strong 5'10. probably 5'11 out of bed and 5'10.5 most of the day.
klem said on 24/Jun/09
I think he was less than 160 pounds in fight club, because supposedely his body fat percentage was 6%. And that is gonna make you look alot bigger. In troy I belive he was 175 pounds and 8 percent, which will look big for his size.
Rob G said on 24/Jun/09
I am certain Pitt is in 5'10" range, MAYBE 5'11" straight out of bed.
Ps. Yeah Doug indeed we agree on most estimates here and we agree on Pitt also, I though I clearly stated earlier that I believe Pitt is 5'10"ish :-)
shell said on 24/Jun/09
"Because people in general tend to exaggerate their height and I think we all know that most celebs are fudging their height. I am 5'11 and my gym has profiles of our guys up there. there are guys my height listed from 6'0 all the way up to 6'2. Not sure why people cant be happy with what they have, but that is the way things are."

Most people do not know their exact, adult height. And I find many people who think they are a great judge of height are off & always try to make people shorter than themselves. It's hard to tell if someone who is close in height to yourself is in fact shorter or taller just by eyeing them. You can usually come within an inch, but cannot be exact. Eyeing Pitt, the overall consensus is he is just under 6'0, so people trying to claim he is 5'9 are ridiculous.
Clay said on 23/Jun/09
I read an article that said while he was ripped for his role in 'fight club' Pitt only weighed around 160 pounds in that movie. That tells me he could be as low as 5'10-5'10.5. He had to be 180-185 at least in Troy.

James said on 23/Jun/09
Do you remmeber in Mr and Mrs Smith when Vince Vaughn was lying down next to this hi tech machine and Brad Pitts height came up on it as 6'0 or 6'1. I think his height on read on the screen 6'01. I think Angelinas height came up as 5'7.
Doug said on 23/Jun/09
Rob G if Pitt is 5'10" he will reach his regular 6' in good lifts even 6'1" in munsters. We've all seen pictures of him in his munsters which give him 3 inches to try to look as tall as CLint Eastwood etc. I'd bet any sum of money Pitt is not over 180cm barefoot. Close but never above.
Doug said on 23/Jun/09
Rob G. We see eye to eye on most things but it is precisely because Pitt is not a legit 5'11" that he wears lifts. Think about it. Why would a guy legitamtely close to 6' need to wear lifts? Also a "solid 5'11" means that you will not measure under this height even before bed after a long hard day. Pitt is 5'10 or 5'10.5" if he was a legit 5'11" in Hollywood he would be listed as 6'.

Pitt has the build of a solid 5'10" guy.

Try 5'11

James, are you positive that Pitt is not having enhanced footwear there, for I see, like Tellem, a weird slope of his shoes. I mean if he is 5'11" that's a decent height for a man, why wear lifts? In normal footwear, with his slim build and with thst forced posture he could pass for a sixfooter easily. IMO he is definately 5'10" range, he looked it early in his career with Gina Davies, David Duchovny or Edward Norton etc. Sure there are occasions that he loooks 6'0" or even 6'1" but that's due to factors I mentioned before, plus most certainly lifts. If anything I can buy that he wakes close to 5'11" or exactly at that height, but nothing over, so during the day he is 5'10.5" or less. Just my few thoughts.
bam said on 23/Jun/09

My sister was hired as a 'wardrobe watcher'on the "Twelve Monkeys" set in Baltimore and Philadelphia. All the male extras were shorter than the actors in the scenes.She wasn't sure of Pitt's height, but said his leg inseam was 26".She said Willis's was 31". She said Bruce Willis is much taller than Brad Pitt. One time between scenes, when Brad 'wasn't smoking cigarettes', the cast and crew had an impromptu game of Basketball. She said David Morse towered over Pitt by at least 6-7 inches. Willis not so much. She said Pitt has very short lower legs and looks funny when he runs, like a tall dwarf.

I agree with you, Tellum ... Pitt is 5-10. The mystery is over for me and I think you, also. I point though is that, if Tarentino is wearing boots with 2" heels, wouldn't he bridge of his foot have an upward slope to it? Although Brad isn't wearing heels, there is a definite slope to his feet. No?

Tellum and others, please let me know if I'm missing something here.

I am not an expert about elevator shoes, so I could be wrong.
Look again at the Pitt/Tarentino photo. Look at their shoes and the steeper slope (on top of feet) that is obvious on Brads shoes. Obviously, the slope on the top of both young ladies feet are due to the stilts they are wearing. Now look at Tarentino's slope. His bridge's are much flatter, indicating no lifts.

tarentino is wearing cowboy boots in that photo, the heel is covered by his long trousers, pitt is wearing shoes with barely a heel so if everything is as it should be tarentino has about a 1 inch footwear advantage

the chance of pitt wearing internal lifts there is nearly zero, look how low his knee level is compared to the girl and compared to tarentino Click Here

LIFTS are made to be hidden. pitt is 99.9% in lifts. hes 5'10 and tarantino is 6'1.5-6'2. end of.

Like I had posted on this site before. My grandfather was a doorman in NYC for 25 years, Brad Pitt years ago lived in the building he worked at. My grandfather saw him all the time. My grandfather being then 5'11.5. Always said Brad Pitt was shorter than him. I just was talking to him and asked again.
He still says it. Brad Pitt was shorter than him.

Yeah sure John, but by how much? did he give you a number?

Look at where Pitt's eye level rest on Tarentino head and the difference between shoulder level. It doesn't look as low as a 2 inches difference. Well I could be wrong.

Like I had posted on this site before. My grandfather was a doorman in NYC for 25 years, Brad Pitt years ago lived in the building he worked at. My grandfather saw him all the time. My grandfather being then 5'11.5. Always said Brad Pitt was shorter than him. I just was talking to him and asked again.
He still says it. Brad Pitt was shorter than him.
ME said on 21/Jun/09
Sorry NO 5'11. He is at the MOST 5'10.5. He just doesn't look 5'11...
177cmmm said on 21/Jun/09
Most people can lie by about 1 inch in their height and get away with it so when Pitt claimed 5 11 he probably was 5 10 just.
DejaVu said on 20/Jun/09
With Tarentino I see a 3 inches difference, definitely more than only a 2 inches difference. Both Pitt and Tarentino are standing in loose posture but straightened up it looks like a 3 inches difference.

Once again...how can you estimate quarter of inches by looking at photos? Sorry to say it, but sounds like bull crap to me.

Flash! Brad Pitt's public relations representative announced the actor would be going into the world famous Quackstein Memorial Hospital in Tijuana, Mexico for Femur Reduction Surgery. His post-operative plans involve handfuls of over-the -counter Percocet from the local Farmacia. Mr Pitt hopes to get the part of 'Cotton Hill', Hank Hill's WW2 injured father in the upcoming adaptation of the 'King of the Hill' film currently in pre-production!

he is not a full 5.11 guy,so he is between 177-180cm max maybe 178
James said on 20/Jun/09
At the end of the day the least Brad Pitt could be is 5'10
Rob G said on 20/Jun/09
5'10,5" suits him well
Ronald said on 20/Jun/09
There is no way in hell that pitt is taller than clooney. I think Pitt is shorter than clooney, BAREFOOT that is. I ll give brad anywhere between 5 9 and 5 10, which also fits the 2inch higher rule for hollywood and also the fact that brad wanted to be 2 inch taller.
Ronald said on 19/Jun/09
Well, to be fair to brad, I think he may well be 5 10, lets not give him a barefoot flat 5'9, cuz otherwise tom cruise nad mat damon would be going down to like, 5 6 or sth.
James said on 19/Jun/09
To be fair to Brad Pitt I think 5'10.5-5'10.75 might be more accurate than a full 5'11.
mike said on 19/Jun/09
OK- I've seen him in Canmore at the jesse james film shoot- 5'9 maybe a weak 5'10 no one was allowed to be over 6 feet on the extras call- big lifts- cowboy boot sized heels give him 6'0- that's it kids debate is over.
Ed(1) said on 19/Jun/09
I'd say he's somewhere between 5ft10-5ft11, and based off that pic with Clooney and Damon, they look to be a good 2" shorter. Granted he's got those slippers on, but they look a little bit more built up then your average slipper. Barefoot I'd guess a weak 5ft9 for Damon, a solid 5ft10 for Clooney, and maybe 5ft10.5 for Pitt.
Brad said on 19/Jun/09
Feb. 5 '09 on Redford page there is a side by side shot of him with Redford. Same height: 5' 10".
Haze said on 19/Jun/09
i hate you frank2... u dont agree with me so ur obviously a loser, there is these things called facts and yours arent straight.

haha just kidding. i think hes 5'10.5 max. but thats only .5" difference. i trust ur estimates. uve never made crazy claims. u seem to be accurate allot of the time.
adam said on 19/Jun/09
Pitt is just under 5-11. Frank2, Pitt stands completely erect and wears elevator shoes.
wedge said on 19/Jun/09
C'mon -- the 5'9" talk is ridiculous. In pictures, depending on camera angle, posture, and footwear, etc., Pitt can look anywhere from 5'9" and 6'1". If you are truly 5'9", then in pictures, the range of apparent height would be more like 5'7" to 5'11". But you NEVER see a picture of him looking 5'7" or even 5'8". Thus, I think it's more appropriate to take the middle of the range -- 5'11". Maybe you take away a tiny bit because he tends to wear bigger heels -- so 5'10.5 to 5'11" it is.
Frank2 said on 19/Jun/09
Except that he's 5'11".
Anonymous said on 18/Jun/09
Stallone is 5'9 and I have seen pictures of him looking taller than 6'0-6'1 Denzel, so it is possible for Pitt to appear that tall if he were 5'9. having said that, i still believe he is 5'10.5 give or take a quarter inch.
James said on 18/Jun/09
Yeah if he was 5'9 he would appear 5'11.5-6'0 on his biggest lifts
Haze said on 18/Jun/09
there may be pictures were hes looking 5'9. but.. if he was truly 5'9 he wouldnt be able to appear as tall as he does in his lifts. i believe in his best customs that he might scrape 6'1. at 5'9 hed have to sport 4" lifts. thats a lil extreme. now at 5'10 - 5'10.5 hed only need a 3" boost. seems more plausible to me

I hate the show "Friends", but I got to catch one recently with Pitt in it. I was shocked to say the least. All I can say is this guy definitely wears lifts because he appeared at least an inch shorter than he normally does in other films. My guess is this guy is only 5'10 but wears 1-inch inserts in normal shoes and elevator boots giving him that mysterious boost only he seems to attain.

I agree with all of that, I even hate Friends too lol. But a extra inch of lift is quite simple to achieve, and that one little inch can make all the difference. He makes sure he doesn't leave the house looking shorter than 5'11, be it that or 6'1.
Big King said on 17/Jun/09
A strong 5'11" anyway. He could get away with 5'11.5" too.

5'10" if u ask me
Ronald said on 17/Jun/09
heloo. Rising force and haze. Please see the picture in a very early comment, with elves prestley who is confirmed 5'6. Those were the days when Pitt was not wearing lifts, or atleast not near to the size of the ones he is wearing now.

A french friend of mine newly commented that he made a pic with pitt at cannes and pointed out his huge heels! without them, as he would assume, pitt would be 5-9. also, this guy is not really into height thing so he told me this not on background of really making notize on heights usually.

peteyork:
'cave men'? hunter gatherers lived on nuts and seeds and a lot less meat than the popular myth of leg bone mammoth chomping cave dwellers suggests.

And the junk they try and sell as food at MacDonalds to the ignorant slobs who eat there can hardly be described as nutritious which is what causes societies to under go height growth.

Although I did find the Highland stuff interesting....

I am sticking with 5.10.

However, he is obviously deeply insecure about it.
Ronald said on 15/Jun/09
ok. Lets just assume pitt is 5'9 (though I think he is between 5 9 and 5 10 and not a flat 5 9, then what do you think tom cruises height would be or matt damons height would be?
Doug said on 15/Jun/09
Note that Gould always looks a strong 6'3". He makes even 6'1" guys look barely 6 flat.
peteyork said on 15/Jun/09
Doug's right there is a bit of height difference in the UK. People in North yorkshire, cumbria, the scottish highlands and lowlands are more 5'10 to 5'11 on average oh and the square mile in london. Glasgow, south wales, birmingham it is 5'8 to 5'9. I am talking average for under fifties here. the rest of the uk is pretty much 5'9 to 5'10. the areas with taller people are rural areas, go somewhere the industrial revolution was strong people are historically smaller. highlands compared to glasgow was a classic, they always use to hire cops from the highlands because of the size advantage. Some places are just catching up on the height genes again. The other myth is cavemen were smaller, we used to be about 5'10, until farming took hold. then we started eating more wheat and less meat. Its the same reason japanesse are growing taller now, all those macdonalds.
Doug said on 15/Jun/09
A legit 6'4.5" guy in Amsterdam would still be very tall as in anywhere else. "Super tall" though in Amsterdam would probably be 6'6" +. Apparently every 1 in 1000 men in Holland are over 6'6".
strauss said on 15/Jun/09
Great photos and comments since my last Pitt post. Wow!I cannot believe how much Pitt's height fluctates. He must have lifts for every occasion! I rented 'fight club'. Norton is taller than Pitt in stocking feet. I met him at a St Patrick Day's celebration in NYC some years ago. He has to be my height of 6 feet. In the movie, Norton is 2-3" taller and looks down on Pitt in close-ups. Another revealing photo is the group with Eliot Gould on the end. He's 6'3". Pitt looks 5'9" beside him. I never saw 'Ocean's. Are there any two shot scenes with them together?
James said on 15/Jun/09
Wow so a 6'4.5 guy would not feel super tall in Amsterdam.

Dunno James. Probably. They seem to be on average 3-4 inches taller than in the UK and USA. Average height for a women is 5'7-5'8" whereas in UK it is 5'4" etc

Doug said on 14/Jun/09
The thing is Alex if you take into account Indians and Chinese (which make up near half the world population LOL) there must be tens of millions of guys don't even reach the 5'8" mark. Especially in the poorer parts of China and India 5'4" or 5'5" is supposed to be average for a guy. In the Chinese cities average for a guy is supposed to be 5'7"-5'8" thanks to a higher standard of living and better nutrition than in rural areas. Us westerners sometimes take for granted how tall we are on average compared to the millions of guys in Asia and Africa and Latin America! This is why I groan at the claims that guys like Brad Pitt and Arnie are "short men". Yes they do look small next to Ralph Moeller types but not to "most" people on a world level.
Doug said on 14/Jun/09
"Most" men aren't over 6'2" in Amsterdam, that's not true. Most men are around 6' or well over yes, certainly 6'2"/6'3" guys are far more common than in the UK or US and there are a lot of super tall guys (not as many as I spotted in Sweden though) but I think you'd find James that you'd fit in very well in Amsterdam at 6'1" average is about 184cm, 6'-6'1". "Tall" in Amsterdam compared to the average in my view from what I've seen starts at around 189cm, 6'2.5-6'3" whereas in the UK and USA 6 foot is usually what would genuinely be considered the start of "tall" and in some shorter peoples eyes, 180cm is likely a rough borderline for tall. Where I live in the UK James, average height for a guy is 5'8" or 5'9", typically Rob's sort of height. In some parts of the UK which are taller than average he would probably feel a little below the average, it does depend on the place but I find it hard to believe average in Sheffield is anywhere near 6'3" sorry. A legit 6'3" guy anywhere in the world will always be markedly above average height.
Doug said on 14/Jun/09
Youre right about Amsterdam though. I'd say average in Amsterdam is 6' or 6'1" for a guy in his 20s or 30s and yes a 5'8"-5'10" in Holland would be considered on the short side. The 6'2"-6'3" average claims are silly though as this is in the tall range in Holland, Sweden or Croatia let alone in "normal" average height societies.
Doug said on 14/Jun/09
James, I've been to Amsterdam and I'm a weak 6'2" barefoot and yes there are a lot of men around my height and indeed some who make me look average. A lot of guys in Amsterdam are between 5'11 and 6'2" though, however many 6'4' -6'6" ers you see. 6'2" or 6'3" average in Sheffield? cmon. 6 ft 3 is not average height in any place in the world even Amsterdam, Split and Stockholm. That's silly. Pitt would look tiny compared to a 6'6" guy, the point being 6 ft 6 men are not the rule.
Doug said on 14/Jun/09
Exactly guys. Most guys I know are between 5'8" and 5'11". Aside from the odd one at 6'5'" amd 6'7" and a couple around my height 6'1"-6'2". Wedge my doctor was including the entire population when he said that. 1 in 20 in the UK at random is 6ft or over. Why is that so hard to believe? Walk into a supermarket is every 10 in 20 guys you see 6 footers? So James2 you are saying if a legit 6'3" guy walked down the street he wouldn't be considered tall? 6'5" and 6'8" guys in your family not unusually tall? 6'4" is the start of tall?
wedge said on 13/Jun/09
Doug - that may be true if your doctor is counting women, children, and seniors. I can't believe that only 1 out 20 males in their 20s and 30s in the UK is over 6 feet.

wedge said on 12/Jun/09
I'm starting to believe he could be 5'10.5" but I'm not going to say 5'10" yet. That poolside pic with Paltrow is pretty convincing. From that pic and others, I think that he's no more than 1 inch taller than paltrow, who is ALWAYS slouching. Paltrow is listed at 5'9". Even if we assume that she's the classic tall chick who rounds down, so she's really 5'9.5", then Pitt is 5'10.5".

By the way, I think that a true 5'10.5" is a pretty solid height. Pretty much everyone that is that height goes by 5'11" or "almost 6 feet".

Because people in general tend to exaggerate their height and I think we all know that most celebs are fudging their height. I am 5'11 and my gym has profiles of our guys up there. there are guys my height listed from 6'0 all the way up to 6'2. Not sure why people cant be happy with what they have, but that is the way things are.

What's with the 1/4 inches? "5'10.75"...come on people! No one gives their height like that, and determining down to the 1/4" just by looking is very dubious.

I don't see any difference here. I know that Pitt is likely wearing lifts and LaBlanc possibly wearing lifts. Not Likely at all for Schwimmer.

Frank2, were you wearing shoes when your doctor measured you? I've had 3 different physicians measure me and all 3x with my shoes on.

I am still convinced Brad is 5-10.

Anonymous said on 10/Jun/09
I guess you have enough proofs od Pitt being shorter than Clooney in pictures above. Look at second one: Pitt is closer to the camera, has shoes on(Clooney doesnt), has better posture(much better) and looks 1-2 inches taller. Also look at him and Damon-Damon looks about 2 inches shorter but has no shoes and also a bit worse posture-put that away and Pitt will be barely taller than Damon. So if Matt is about 5'8(like Frank2 said and i believe in most of his estimates),let's give Pitt 5'9 (cause i don't think he is shorter or even same haight as Matt). That also fits 2-inches-holywood-rule.
Frank2 said on 10/Jun/09
I believe the last time I saw him was in Beverly Hills walking with someone and he appeared to be wearing running shoes, but not the type Stallone wears, if you catch my drift. These looked normal. But normal running shoes can gain one as much as two inches. He looked as tall as me if not slightly taller. I was wearing my usual shoe which is a slip-on loafer with an inch heel. Anything more and I get a backache.
Doug said on 10/Jun/09
Good way to see how tall Pitt is compared to average (in footwear anyway) is to see how he looks in comparison to the guys in the background in photos. Generally he looks taller than most and looks a good few inches taller than the average sort of guys, he definately looks a good 6 foot in comparison in boots/lifts. It is only occasionally he gets dwarfed by legit 6'2+ guys. He really does give a tall impression at times because of his slim build and even if he is a flat 5'10" barefoot and gets 2-2.5 inches in boots he still manages to pull off looking tall at times.
bam said on 10/Jun/09
clooney under 5'10 is a joke. Pitt is very possibly 5'11 like frank2 saw. Frank2, was pitt dressed up or dressed casually? Was he in boots?

5'11 sounds right for him, & is a nice height for a man, IMO (tall can be awkward & there's nothing awkward about Pitt). And I think some of you guys take the lift shoes too far....

I was measured by my doctor at a recent physical. Came out right at 5'11". That was about 11 AM.

frank2, didn't you mention you were a hair under 5'11, at 5'10.75?

It would be hard to tell the difference between 5'10.5, and 5'10.75. Same as it would be tricky to tell apart 5'10.25 and 5'10.75.

pitt is closer to the camera there thats why he looks 2 inches taller, opposite of your other photo where clooney is closer, same event and time as your photo (venice film festival 2008), camera straight on, no 2 inch difference Click Here

A solid 5'10" barefoot is obviously not short. From an average viewpoint including men and women it is actually on the taller side around the world. Personally I don't consider 5'10" to be short or tall but from an average viewpoint it is slightly on the taller side. If however a legit 5'10" guy wears big shoes to reach 6' thats when they can often give a tall impression, especially if they have a long skinny build. Like Alex I think a lot of people have a misconception of how a real barefoot 5'10" looks as there are obviously many guys who are barely 5'8" like Mark Wahlberg who claim 5'10" so some people think it is short. Pitt is roughly 5'10" and a decent height for a bloke. But I can see why guys his height wish they were a legit 6'. I know a number of 5'10" guys and I don't tower over them, they look a decent height to me and I'm 6'1.75. On this site a number of people seem to talk as if they are all 6'4" plus and even heights like 5'11" and 6' or on the short side. From a general point of view a legit 5'10" barefoot guy as you see them in street would not be considered short. Only if you are 6'3" " would 5'10" seem little in comparison.
delphonic said on 9/Jun/09
The difference between the two Pitt/Clooney pics Bo has posted is staggering. I agree they are both scraping 5' 10". When Pitt is in his red carpet stilts, he is an easy 2 inches taller. But on the very rare occasion Clooney is in lifts and Pitt is not, suddenly Clooney has a commanding 2 inch advantage! These guys are a trip!
177cmmmm said on 9/Jun/09

See you will have some people consider 5'10 to be short and those who say it will end up being 5'11-6'1 which is funny. Normally those 5'10 guys who are short wind up not being a legit 5'10, more like 5'8-5'9.

look guys i know you love arguing but look at Bo's link clooney is 5 '11 and obviously taller than pitt i would give him the benifeit of the doubt and say he is 5 '10 no taller clooney states 5 11 and pitt looks shorter than him. I f clooney lies about his height like most people he's 5 '10 and pitt does look 2 inches shorter like Bo said so he could very well be 5 9 anyway i dont care but i know hes not 6 1 like he claims.

Lowest possible height for Pitt is 5'9.5". Agree with Alex a 5'10" guy will easily pull off 6'0 in lifts, even 6'1" in big lifts and posture. A legit 5'10" guy can easily pull off being tall.
Doug said on 6/Jun/09
Yeah and James when there are some guys around in the 6'2"-6'5" range he probably feels he comes off short being 5'10" or 5'11".
gilipollas said on 6/Jun/09
Brad is forced to wear lifts as the roles he plays he HAS to be tall. SAME happended to rock hudson as he has to be heterosexual because his roles were of a macho man and sex symbol when in reality he was gay. Maybe Pitt is sick of weatng lifts and im pretty sure he would love to just hang out barefoot more relaxed and not having that military posture all the time. IN "fight club" his role had to have a deeper more confident voice tone, more confident body language, better posture than norton, TALLER, more muscular, etc...Brad is not a short guy for his age.
Bo said on 5/Jun/09
Yea hes got a long solid torso and short legs I think. But yes he is majorly insecure about his height just like Tom Cruise; he wants to be that 5'11+ stud man that he presents himself to be so bad but hes not, and he just can't accept that...

Here he is about 2 inches shorter than Clooney: Click Here

If you look at the Spike TV awards you can see how ridiculous Pitt's lifts are. He is taller than Norton. That fight club pic puts him 2.5 inches below Norton. That alone tells you his is no where near 6foot. He is majorly insecure about his height.
TELLEM said on 4/Jun/09
norton is 6'0, not 6'1 and pitt is 5'10
bobo said on 4/Jun/09
if Norton stood up straight he would have 3 inches on Pitt. That pic shows that Pitt is 5.10 or below. If he was 5.11 then Norton would be pushing 6.2. And thats silly.
vigilante said on 3/Jun/09
in actuality, he is 5' 10.75 barefoot

Out of question Brad Pitt's height.
Pitt is shorter, around 2 inches, than Norton and is obvious.
obzervi said on 3/Jun/09
He never looked the same height as Norton, except maybe in scenes where Norton was barefoot and slouching while Brad had on lifts and perfect posture.

You're absolutely right, bam & company.

Is insane Brad Pitt equal or even a bit taller than Edward Norton. This photo is from the video dicky curtis and you were talking about. Check this out folks:

Brad Pitt 5'11.
Edward Norton 6'0.25 or even 6'1.
And both of them same tall in that photo / video. Even Pitt taller than Norton.

My guess is Brad Pitt uses tons of lifts which elevate him around 2 inches taller. And you can see this in lots of movies from him. For instance: "Fight Club" where Edward Norton and Pitt look each other face to face eye to eye. And "Spy Game" where in some tracks Brad Pitt looks Robert Redford (around 5'10) down.
dicky curtis said on 3/Jun/09
he looked an inch taller than norton! i don't get it anymore.... maybe glenn was right when he met him and saw him at 6ft.
bam said on 3/Jun/09
i found the video dicky curtis was talkign about
Click Here

looking taller than a guy in a picture is one thing. But walking and standing taller than a legit 6ft guy due to lifts is pretty insane when you think about it...
Ronald said on 2/Jun/09
Dicky curtis. alex and joan. There is obviously something wrong with his height as we are never able to see him barefoot in a picture showing his whole body in one single shot.

So, my mind says. This guy obviously has some doubts about his height that is why he does these things. Edward is 6'1 i think. Brad looks taller than him. That is the best evidence of him wearing tons of lifts.

The arguement is not ,if he is 5 11 or 5 10. The arguement is that if he is 5'10 or 5'9. I am gonna go with 5 9.5' barefeet.
dicky curtis said on 2/Jun/09
i saw brad pitt on youtube with mel gibson and edward norton, and he looked taller than norton! and at least equally tall
John said on 2/Jun/09
LOL, whats the deal with the height in the morning and evening? I could see that with someone with poor posture, and a round mid-section. Pitt has a solid core and great posture. A guy in his shape wont shrink a inch before bed. LOL I always thought the guy was 5'10. But in some pics with his nice "shoes" he looks taller. But come on does any celeb ever say there real height. A Star of his stature has to be "tall". He is Brad Pitt. Women wouldnt want a guy who was stated as average height. Cause Hollywood wants us to believe he is better than all. Hey if I was a celeb, im 5'10. I would say 6'1, why not. Its the name of the game.
Anonymous said on 2/Jun/09
I think he's 178cm (5'10.25). With lifts he can reach 6'1
Alex said on 2/Jun/09
I am not buying as low as 5'9 for him. He may not be 5'11 but he just doesn't look under 5'10 either.
James said on 1/Jun/09
5'9 is too low. Seriously, he's a minimum 5'10.25 barefoot.
Bo said on 1/Jun/09
yea hes at most 5'10 and always wears lifts. I wouldnt be suprised if he was 5'9. I just want to see him in sandals for once. He makes it so obvious by always wearing heels
ed said on 31/May/09
Brad not much taller than Mel, in a photo taken last night:

Lets have some photos then Incstingt.

Otherwise you will come across as all those other trolls who simply come on here and say what you just said.
delphonic said on 30/May/09
Incstingt is basically saying Pitt's a strong 5'10"...makes sense to me.
Rick said on 30/May/09
You guys that keep going on and on about the "Interview with the Vampire" photos with Tom are just clueless. Anyone that knows movies is aware that Tom was forced to wear lifts to compete with Brad. Pitt is between 5'10 and 5'11 with perfect proportions.
Incstingt said on 30/May/09
Brad Pitt is my friend and he's a 1.75', maybe.. 2' under of me.
I'm 6'0.7" in morning, 5'11.9" in night.
Josh.J said on 29/May/09
bobo you are ofcourse right. the most you'll lose due to cartilage compression is 1/2" (around 1cm). now its nigh impossible to "detect" the change in person and definitively impossible to judge when comparing still pictures because of various other factors that bobo mentioned below. to suggest people lose an inch (2.5cm) is just plain ridiculousness.
Ian said on 29/May/09
If he is 180cm minimum. Then 182-183 could be his waking height. I'm a similar height.
James said on 28/May/09
You serious TELLEM?
Jay said on 28/May/09
bobo, we have to do the wake up height as well because some people are posting morning photos, not just later in the day photos.
bobo said on 28/May/09
Please stop with the whole "wakes up at a certain height" routine. Its ridiculous.
TELLEM said on 28/May/09
he wakes up at 5'11 in shoes.
James said on 28/May/09
Brad Pitt probably wakes at 5'11
Jay said on 28/May/09
Guys you are overdoing it. Pitt is 5ft 9.5 at his lowest during the day. Wakes at about 5ft 10 1/4.

@strauss
Have seen Paltrow on two occassions. She is 5ft 7 1/2 to 5ft 8. I saw her once with heels and once in slippers.
strauss said on 27/May/09
Just reviewed Paul's May 17 doorframe estimate of 5'8.8" for Brad. Excellent forensic technique. Antonio's May 14, 'Vampire' photos of Brad and Tom almost looking the same height demonstrates his 5'9" frame. One of the best is the 'Devil's Own' 1996 street photo with Brad wearing 'Monster' causual tie shoes much like the ones I saw on Stallone when he lived in Coconut Grove in 1994. I couldn't believe how big Stallone's sneakers were. Harrison Ford is a legite six footer and the squatting third guy in the frame has jumpboots on. Like I said when I met Pitt in Berlin last winter. He has a long body and very short legs. He was always wearing a cap or hat. When I shook his hand, he appeared to be the same height as my brother-in-law who is 5'9". BTW I just saw the naked Paltrow photo. She's 5'10" all day long. She towers over Pitt. He may very well be 5'8"

Bam, no i'm not the guy, i never met Sly, but for Pitt, he's not a 5'11 guy.
James said on 26/May/09
Tarrentino looks like he could have 3 inches on Pitt if he striaghtend up.
dmeyer said on 26/May/09
pitt had no lifts near tarantino you can see his socks blue one btw if you look at all the pics
Josh.J said on 26/May/09

sorry Leung, pitt will never be or look taller than tarantino without photoshop.
bam said on 25/May/09
gago, are you the guy who got a pic with stallone? Where he looked 5'10 minimum? Lol, if so could you repost that pic?
Brad said on 25/May/09
Rob G & P are correct, so is Gago. As listed. File this height away.
TELLEM said on 25/May/09
5'10.75 after a good night sleep fresh out of bed.
dicky curtis said on 25/May/09
Yeah, what's his height anyway?
James said on 25/May/09
5'10.75 would be perfect for Pitt
Rob G said on 25/May/09
Gago says on 22/May/09
I spent around 10 minutes around him and Angelina last year at the Critic's Choice, he had close to 2 inch heels, looked that he was getting some lift from inside,crazy posture. I estimate him between 177-179, 5'9.75-5'10.5.

Indeed I think he is in that range as Gago said, 5'10.5" morning heigh, 5'9.75" evening, so basically Pitt is a 5'10" guy.
Anonymous said on 25/May/09
dmeyer is a very solid judge of height. I too believe Pitt is a weak 5'11 or 5'10.5
Ronald said on 25/May/09
I ve been visiting this forum for ages now. So whats the conclusion here. Brad is what? BAREFOOT. 5'9, 5'10 or 5'11
Jay said on 25/May/09
In Benjamin Button there is a scene when Pitt and Tilda Swinton are kissing in the lobby between their hotel rooms. They are both in slippers and robes and she is taller than him. This is when Pitt is playing full grown self not the shrunken CGI Benjamin.
mars said on 25/May/09
I think the reason pitt wears lifts is because every time he is next to somebody expecially males they would size him up,you know im actually taller than brad pitt mentality.
delphonic said on 25/May/09
Tarantino is 6'1", Pitt was in lifts next to him (of course) and had better posture and was still at least 2 inches shorter, he's 5'10 people.
Doug said on 25/May/09
Glenn has also said he thinks that Pitt and Stallone are around the same height barefoot, given that he has stood right next to both of them. Yet we have Stallone at 5'9" and Pitt at 5'11". Stallone is certainly not 5'11", even 5'10" is pushing it barefoot. Vin Diesel is more a weak 6'. I'm certain he would have well over an inch on Pitt barefoot anyway. I think Pitt has you conned that he is a legit 5'11". He is rake thin and has military posture plus he normally wears lifts to look 6' and does occasionally seem to be up to tip toe tricks like in the Eastwood picture. All of these combined can give a "tall" illusion. Has anybody thought how much Pitt might shrink if he took off the lifts and dropped the posture and stood relaxed barefeet. The beack photos prove he is 5'10" max. He is between 5'9.75" and 5'10.5". A guy around 5'10" can easily pull off 6' in the kind of footwear Pitt wears.
Doug said on 25/May/09
Nup. I think Pitt is 5'10" and Vin Diesel 5'11.5". If you honestly think Pitt is a legit 5'11" barefoot he has you conned. A legit 5'11" in Hollywood would claim 6'0 on the resume.
dmeyer said on 25/May/09
i said 5 ft 10.75 beacause i think he could be as low as 5 ft 10.5 so if rob will list him at 5 ft 10.75 then if pitt is realy 5 ft 10.5 then the listing wouold be closer to pitt height than 5 ft 11 also pitt looks a bit more than 2 in under tarantino who is 6 ft 1 but tarantino could be a weak 6 ft 2

Editor Rob
of course pitt could be weak 5ft 11, tarantino had photos with ryan reynolds and hayden and didn't look 6ft 2 then.
Clay said on 24/May/09
Dmeyer has an amazing eye to tell 5'11 off from 5'10.75.
ChuckTheSchmuck said on 24/May/09
Yes, it's amusing how people believe they can detect quarter of inches just by looking at a photo. Stop that, it's not possible.
HeightOBsessed said on 24/May/09
"come on, how can you possibly detect 0.25 inches" LMAO! I agree
James said on 23/May/09
Brad what? you saying you have never seen or heard of the 2004 movie with Brad Pitt and Orlando Bloom?
RisingForce said on 23/May/09
i didn't notice anything odd about brad's shoes compared to ford, he simply looks like a solid 5-11 man there.
Brad said on 23/May/09
Gago is 100% correct. His posture is wicked, you can see it compared to Danny Ocean when they walk together. He looks tall with Ford. I guess Ford let the "kid" have some wedge.
James said on 23/May/09
Well he does look a 5'11er next to Harrison Ford
bam said on 23/May/09
i initially thought 5'11 was very possible for the paltrow pic. Instead I see 5'10ish. 5'11 isn't very possible based on that pic, but its not impossible.
Brad said on 22/May/09
Troy? Nope, never heard that one. Yeah, if he were a legit 5' 11" he'd mention the number 6 as his height.

come on, how can you possibly detect 0.25 inches? 5.10 5ft10.5 of 5.11 seems the figures we should concentrate on. (surely hope that his post gets through for once).

Anonymous says on 22/May/09
No way is he over 5'11. And no, tilting your head does not cause much height loss. Maybe half an inch. Try it if you do not believe me. He looks 5'10 flat here Click Here

Can't you guys tell that he is on slightly higher ground? Look at his right foot.
James said on 22/May/09
Yeah I thought in Troy premier pics he looked 5'10.75.
dmeyer said on 22/May/09
could you list pitt at 5 ft 10.75
