Rob, I might've asked this ages ago but would you say it's safe to assume that he'd be 6ft2 early morning?
Editor Rob
I think that's a pretty reasonable assumption.
jordydecke said on 7/Jan/14
Looks a bit shorter in "Olympus has fallen", more like a 5'11.75 or 6'0 guy. Looks a lot thinner in this film too and I think it suits him more.
berta said on 2/Jan/14
the same height as bradley cooper when cooper has mutch more heels. 186 sounds right
Sam said on 18/Dec/13
Being nose-to-nose with Bradley Cooper proved Butler's 6'2" claims are erroneous. Butler is a guy who can seem bigger on screen than he does in photos. In Rock-n-Rolla, he's a bit shorter than Mark Strong and (more so) Idris Elba.
johnmcc said on 17/Dec/13
Saw a photo of him with my 6'2 Uncle in Paisley and he looked an inch smaller so maybe 185cm evening but this is also good.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Nov/13
The current 186cm listing is spot on. Around the same as Brosnan
SGR said on 22/Nov/13
For me he's 181 cm MAX

cole said on 19/Nov/13
Eckhart seems more like a 178 cm guy to me the more I see him (think Rob also mentioned he could look it next to Yvonne Strahovski). Gerard is closer to the camera in that shot Arch Stanton posted as well. I'd go with 185-186 cm range for Butler, and 178-179 cm for Eckhart.

what do u guys think? with rg3.

I remember tons of analysts/scouts who had seen him in person being surprised at the NFL combine that RG3 measured as high as 6'2 3/8". It was probably a first thing in the morning measurement. Butler appears to be at most .5" shorter in that photo.
Voiceless Dental Fricative said on 4/Nov/13
He looks 6'2 with Eckhart.
Lo sgozzatore said on 3/Nov/13
Yeah, Arch he easily looks around 6'1 with Aaron but remember those pictures with Raoul Bova, who is around 180-181. The same Bova actually struggled to look 5'11 with the footballer Luca Toni, who claimed 193 in an interview. Butler really doesnt look over 183-184 with him, they actually look about the same (Bova has some footwear advantage) but i'm givin him the benefit of doubt. Maybe he's 184?
Arch Stanton said on 30/Oct/13

screwylouie77 said on 26/Oct/13
There's a photo of him with Adrien Brody on the base and it looks like GB has a couple/few inches on AB, certainly more than 1.25" between them (you have Brody at 6'0" and Butler at 6'1.25"). So one of these heights is off by a little.

Looks 186-187cm with good posture.
Mark Strong could be 188cm though.
Balrog said on 5/Sep/13
I think 183-185 is a better range, I thought he was shorter but next to Eckhart he does looks close to 6'1" but can't see him that tall when he is so close in height with Bradley Cooper (maybe lifts on Bradley) and next to Bouva he's no way near to 6'1".
Jack said on 27/Aug/13
Rob next to Mark Strong he looks about 6'1'5" range. Is 187 cm possible for him?

I think 186 is still a good shout for him...

He can't be this tall. Look at him with solid 5'9" Hardy, with Bouva and this guy was barely taller (if that) than Bradley Cooper. He's under 6'1". Solid 184cm I think.

Here's a video of Edbassmaster with Gerard Butler and Aaron Eckhart. Edbassmaster has a video with Chris Daughtry where they stand right next to each other and they both look the exact same height. Daughtry's listed at 5'8", which is what I've always thought Edbassmaster looked.

Gerry & his friend, and fellow Scotsman, Craig Ferguson appear together often, and Craig is always noticeably taller. On this site, you bill Craig as 6'1.5"...
If you're right about Craig, Gerry is no more than 6'0.

Linebacker28 said on 20/Apr/13
He's rangy. Can look anything from a flat 6' to a near 6'2". I'd put the money on 185cm, personally. Looked that against Walker in Timeline, and for the most part in RocknRolla.

I think anything below 6'.5" is unfair, since in this video he appears to have at least an inch over Craig Ferguson. I don't think he could boost himself from 5'11", as some are claiming his height might be, to over 6'2" to loom over Craig without wearing some ridiculous looking shoes.

Lo sgozzatore said on 5/Feb/13
I said it Silent d :)
The 6'2 claim is outrageous... He looks about the same with Raoul Bova, let's say a bit taller just because he has shoe disadvantage... And Bova did neither look 5'11 with footballer Luca Toni, who has claimed 193! No way this guy is 6'1.25 but again he's more "important" and famous than other stars on here, so he probably deserves at least one inch as a gift!
Silent d said on 4/Feb/13
That photo with mel gibson makes him look 180cm and mel is wearing sandals. No lifts. He is also wearing thin trainers. This is shocking. Maybe gerard butler is not that tall after all. I am saying he's 6 foot flat now after those shocking mel gibson photos.

Rob, Butler and Bradley Cooper seem to be around the same height. The only ones where Butler looks taller is where he is closer to the camera or standing straighter. In some of the shots Cooper even seems to have a hair over Butler. I think Butler is under 6'1". Downgrade time yet?

Mark E Smith said on 16/Dec/12
Sorry third reason, he is clearly shorter than Jonathan Ross (who may have been 6 1 when younger but at 50 and overweight must have lost height - likely height now say 6).
Also lots of sightings in Glasgow have Gerard him as average - tall rather than tall.
Guess he is 5'11 - 5 11.5.
6'1.5 is outlandish. Also behave over the physique, in Sparta 300 it's mostly CG.
Mark E Smith said on 15/Dec/12
Come on, this site is meant to cut through the fiction. 6ft 1.25in is nonsense for Butler. Three reasons:
lots of Pics with Henrik Larson and Butler at best 2 inches taller. Larson is 5ft 9in tops. Met H in Glasgow, very nice guy but I was surprised how short he was.
Also recall a pic of Butler in petrol filling station standing beside a range rover sport (height 5ft 11.5) and Butler was (you guessed it)standing upright shorter than the roof.

6'4 is bizzare for Gerald. He's still tall though at 185cm.
Lo sgozzatore said on 12/Nov/12
Rob, i dont know if you're aware but there some photos out there of Butler with Lena Headley, that you met! Well, he is standing pretty straight, she has bad posture and she's wearing slippers (so he also has footwear advantage)... He really doesnt look more than a good 6' next to her (with all these advantages). Maybe it is worth to downgrade him to 6'1 (even if he likely is shorter than that, he's also very similar to Cooper who's nothing over 6'0.25-6'.5)
Editor Rob
a flat 6ft 1 might be ok
Lo sgozzatore said on 4/Nov/12
Rob, you want pics? He looks similar to bova who isnt over 181 and isnt taller than cooper, who could easily be 6'!
Editor Rob
butler for sure can sometimes only look 6 foot range, but I think that's more standing loose. He has less footwear with bova, at least give him that half inch back ;)
Lo sgozzatore said on 3/Nov/12
I looked more about Bova and he really doesnt look over 180-181 (see the recent pics with Gassman). Butler looks very similar to Bova... There are also some pics of Butler with Bradley Cooper. Butler really doesnt look taller than Cooper, in many pics he even looks shorter. Now we know that Cooper could be 6', so Butler maybe needs a downgrade, Rob?
balrog said on 18/Oct/12
He's 6'0.5'' because he is same height that Bradley Cooper.

Monster? Looks a similar height and weight to me (before he lost all the weight). Quite a big guy but not huge. Looks nearer 175 pounds now and looked better chunkier and without the dyed scruffy hair in my opinion. But hardly Challenger #15 now is he.. I'll agree though that he has something very raw about him and looks like he could be quite tough or violent if he got upset and a bit of sexual beast LOL.

I think 6'1-ish is about right.
@ayse: As for weight, he definitely weighed more than 187lb in 300. The article below claims 197lb (as well as 6'2") for that movie, but I have a hard time believing he didn't weight more actually -- like 210+. The only thing is, his midsection was so lean, he probably had an extremely low bodyfat %, so that 197 could legitimately be "all muscle."

G has always been listed as 6'2", and I have seen him with lots of others. He does slouch, and admits it.

AS a fan, I have every pic, and can see his height with others

couldnt seem to get he link for the phot but its on Gerards db. Check out willis and butler toegether, I know its not the gretest photo as it's not full body and Ger is doing this funny posture thing, but as I've said before all pictures are telling and some more compelling than others, but I'm thinkin Willis is wearin some serious lifts and Gerard is not the 6'2 he jovially claims. I'm with Jake on this one but I will say a very strong 6'1 relaxed posture.

The suit, pants, shirt fit perfectly. I had to buy it since "The Ugly Truth" is one of my favorites...He wears the suit on the dance floor, and in the elevator...so yum. I really think that Gerry is what he claims: six-two. When he was standing next to suppOsedly six-foot tall actors, he towers above them. His torso is long, and his legs are verY long.

when he stands as tall as possible he can look 6 ft 1.5
thebad7 said on 22/Jul/11
Gerry reminds me of Benicio Del Toro in the sense that he's a tall guy who likes to slouch. Also like BDT, you can see how tall he really is when he does straighten up, standing with good posture. I think that Gerry is 6'2"--he has the proportions of a 6'2" man, and he stacks up well against other tall actors. I just saw some shots of him standing next to Hugh Jackman--whom I believe to be legitimately 6'2" barefoot--and Gerry looked a bit taller than Jackman. Granted, the photos were 3/4 shots and I couldn't see the mens' shoes, but assuming the footwear was similar, the case for Gerry being 6'2" is reasonable.
Also, in ROCKNROLLA, Gerry only looked about 1" shorter than 6'3" Idris Elba--Elba is another tall actor whom I believe to be more 6'3" than 6'2" as he consistently looks taller than legit 6'2" actors, and I don't think that either Elba or Butler wear lifts in their footwear. They don't need to--they're tall guys; they aren't like
Zac Efron--a guy whom I am convinced has five inch wood blocks stuffed in the heels of his shoes.
@Liz: If the suit you own from THE UGLY TRUTH fits perfectly on a 6'2" mannequin, then the case for Gerry being 6'2" is a compelling one. I think he's 6'2". If you don't mind me asking, which suit did you purchase? The dark one he wore when he kissed Heigl in the elevator?

he is 183-184.
jake said on 20/Jul/11
6ft1 flat. I was surprised because before seeing him in a few films I envisaged him as being a 6ft2 guy.
Liz said on 16/Jul/11
I hate to admit this, but I purchased one of the suits Gerard wore in "The Ugly Truth.": I bought a six-foot ttwo mannequin...and I put the suit on it. (Yes, I'm obsessed.) It fits perfectly...I truly believe he's six-foot two. As for the
Zac Efron chronic comments? Zac was probably wearing lifts...and/or standing on something. Tom Cruise used lifts in "Night and kDay" with Diaz. Short men often wer them n Hollywood.,

i personally put him at 6ft.1/8
TruebloodFan said on 2/Jul/11
strong 6ft/ weak 6ft1. doesn't look 6ft2. can look 6ft1 at times.
Alexandre said on 27/Jun/11
Yes that looks right. He's a legit 186cm. Not taller, not shorter.
Godred said on 19/Jun/11
184 or 185.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/Jun/11
Rob who would be taller Gerard Butler or Pierce Brosnan?
Editor Rob
I think they are very close. Pro badly flip a coin to se e who is taller
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Jun/11
It's not impossible, James but mostly he looks over that
Viper said on 13/Jun/11
I think Rampage would think Im 6-6
James said on 12/Jun/11
maybe 185cm?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Jun/11
I think he's near 6ft2...looks 3-4in taller than 5ft8.5 Katherine Heigl (in heels) in the Ugly Truth. Nothing less than 186cm, more likely 187cm. Also roughly an inch shorter than 6ft2.5-6ft3 Idris Elba in RocknRolla.
James said on 8/Jun/11
i personally think 6'2 is ridicolous for gerard. i mean he's tall and above average in height for sure but borderline very tall?
Chameleon said on 7/Jun/11
Zac Efron is 5'7
I dont buy 186cm
Shaun said on 6/Jun/11
Can look like a 5'11" guy a lot. I mean, how can he be near 6'2" next to weak 5'8"
Zac Efron!!!
James said on 5/Jun/11
Gerald looks 6ft to me
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Jun/11
I think 187cm is nearer.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 31/May/11
He's further from the camera
James said on 31/May/11
the black fella is 5'11 (180cm). Rob is pictured next to him on this site
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 26/May/11
James whose the black fella with Butler and how tall is he?
I think 6ft1.5 is Butler's real height.
James said on 25/May/11
Looks 5'11.5 (182cm) here as well

Chameleon said on 23/May/11
@factmaster: I would definitely believe that, no doubt. People think wayyyy to high of these celebs.
factmaster said on 22/May/11
this may sound crazy but this guy is like 5'10.25" bare foot and 5'10.75" to 5'11" in shoes, i walked behind this guy, i am not picking to a minimum either, even when i just look at him compred to him ground level up he doesn't look tall either, again like 5'10.75" in shoes. 6'1" is crazy
Chameleon said on 18/May/11
6'1 max to me.
Liz said on 17/May/11
Watch the shoes...Brosnan usualy wear BOOTS with heels...and at the Oscars, look aat Bradley's shoes...the heels are much larger thankButler's. I still say that Butler is sixtwo.
Tyler said on 15/May/11
Solid 6'2". Nothing more, nothing less.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/May/11
Larc, Carrey at 6"1.75 and Cooper at 6"1.25 isn't that hard to believe
Chameleon said on 27/Apr/11
Carrey is 184cm max barefoot.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Apr/11
Same height as Pierce Brosnan...both are 186-187cm
Larc 6 ft 1.5 in said on 25/Apr/11
I think he is more like 6'1, and I explain you why:
- He looked exactly the same height as 6'1 Bradley Cooper, not even a fraction shorter or taller. And Bradley Cooper clearly looked 1-2cm shorter than legit 186-187 Jim Carrey in "Yes Man".
- He looked also 1-2cm shorter than 186-187 Pierce Brosnan in "Shattered".
So if he's 6'1.25 then also Cooper is 6'1.25, and Carrey is 6'1.75, and that's clearly too much for everyone.
What do you think Rob, 6'1 is more closer?
Chameleon said on 20/Apr/11
If he's 6 feet even then so is Bradly Cooper!
Shaun said on 19/Apr/11
He actually looks about the same height and build as myself so I find it extremely hard to believe that he is under 200 pounds. More 215 in my view,
Joe said on 19/Apr/11
I met him in LAX, nice guy, he was 6 feet even. A lot of actors usually exaggerate their height one or two inches. These guys are not better than you, they are ordinary people with extraordinary luck. There is not much of a difference between a man who is 6'2" and one who is 6' feet even. Even Christian Bale was boasting he was 6'2" when Batman Begins was released, when he really is 6 feet even. Apparently the producers were saying Bale was the only actor who stood the same height as the comic book Batman.
Brendan said on 3/Apr/11
Met him a couple of times through a mutual friend. Same height as me, 6"2
paul86 said on 30/Mar/11
6'2' in the morning and 6'1.5' in the evening
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 19/Mar/11
Looks on his way to 6"2...around the same height as Pierce Brosnan
Both 187cm
James said on 12/Mar/11
looks like a strong 6ft guy.
ikbtops said on 26/Feb/11
I'd put Gerry at 6'2. 6'4" after a couple of weeks in outer space...out of bed...
thebad7 said on 24/Feb/11
6'2" isn't out of the question for Gerry. In ROCKNROLLA, he looks roughly 1" shorter than 6'3" Idris Elba. I can't see him being any shorter than 6'1 1/2" at the most.

Did you see Gerard at the Berlinale Red Carpet for "Coriolanus"? He was next to Ralph Fiennes who's supposed to be six feet tall...and Vanessa Redgrave , who was six feet tall in her prime..and Gerard? He towers above them all! I bet he's six -two, and at least six -three with shoes on.
King Vegeta said on 13/Feb/11
this guy is 6' topps he is no where near 6'2" cool guy though.

so it shows maybe when some1 gives their own height out its the truth!
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5/Feb/11
Looks about the same as Brosnan maybe a hair shorter
Shaun said on 1/Feb/11
LOL you can never judges by photos, he looks only a few inches taller than 5'8" tops
Zac Efron and looks taller than 6'2" Hugh Jackman!!
Shaun said on 1/Feb/11
I think he looks exactly the same height as me, 187cm. Yes I think he''d be a whisker over 6'2" out of bed. He does look about 15 stone range to me also. Not buying his claim of 180 pounds? No way.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Jan/11
6"1.25(186cm) is dead on
Mat said on 17/Jan/11
You may be right. But I thought he looked very tall in both The A-Team and the Hangover. He was no more than 3 inches shorter than Liam Neeson who I think is 6'4 and seemed a lot taller than Dirk Benedict who cameo's at the end of the credits. Still definitely just taller than Butler.
Matt said on 17/Jan/11
@Mat I think Cooper is 6' 0.5'' tops, never looked quite as tall as he claims to me. Would be consistent considering Carrey is 6' 1.5''
Chameleon said on 13/Jan/11
In what movie RampageClover?
Mat said on 12/Jan/11
I think its a close call but Brosnan as a much more slender frame to Butler and with the cowboy boots appears taller in some scenes and angles. It's impossible to tell for sure but for me Butler as it by a whisker.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Jan/11
Brosnan was taller than Butler in that movie
Mat said on 11/Jan/11
I'd put Butler at 6ft even. If you watch the Jim Carrey film Yes Man then you'll see easily that Carrey tops Bradley Cooper by an inch. I think that Carrey is a genuine 6'2, Cooper 6'1 and so based on that Oscar picture of Butler and Cooper together both straining their backs for maximum height LOL, I'd say that Cooper just pips him to that magical Hollywood height of 6'1. As for the Brosnan film (Butterfly on a Wheel) I've never believed Brosnan claims of 6'2. Butler was the same height if not taller by half an inch and you'll notice that Brosnan is wearing cowboy boots through out that movie, Butler was not.
Anonymous said on 5/Jan/11
i think you got that right,he looks the exact same high as Brosnan.

Stood near him for 20 minutes in a bar last week in Miami. My friends and I were all surprised how small he is compared to how he looks in movies. He's 5'11 to 6 foot (max) and weighs approx. 180 lbs. And as one of my girlfriends said....he has a tiny butt! I think he has lost weight since the Ugly Truth....definitely not a big guy but better looking in person.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Try making your story a bit more realistic next time. Your a crap liar.
This guy is a legit 6ft1/186cm.

very likely not under that 188cm mark
Shorty 511 said on 23/Nov/10
Butler seems to be very close to Brad Pitt's height, I would say 5'11"
This can be seen from pictures of both Pitt and Butler with Jennifer Aniston, Check it out yourself...
Also check out pictures with Butler and
Zac Efron ...no doubt 5'11".
It is interesting how actors get that extra boost.
TruebloodFan said on 8/Nov/10
this guy is tall. I agree with Munto, he has a 'weird' shape for someone who's tall, he's built like he's of average height, but IMO that's because he's a big guy. I'd bet he'd look huge if I met him. 185 l8 @ nite.
Moke said on 29/Oct/10
Yeah, but guys: have you actually noticed that he is at least as tall as Jackman? And I d doubt he has shoe advantage here. 187 Butler; 186 Jackman.

Wow, he's a strong 6'1" it appears. Look how much he is leaning in, and there still is at least a 4-inch difference.

glenn how is Butler's posture on this photo? I am confused because I remember you said that 6'1.25 is correct for this guy but don't see that difference from this photo. He seems more like 6' footer..
J.J. said on 11/May/09
if he is 6'1.25" then that makes Idris elba 6'3.25"
Editor Rob
Butler definitely loosens his posture at times. Watch RocknRolla when he stands straight with strong/elba.
Liz said on 2/May/09
"Noman's" comment (March 11) stated that the"lieutenant", actually Stellios, in the apple-chewing scene in"300"...was very tall. The actor is Michael Fassbender, and he lists himself at six feet tall. Gerard is taller than he by two inches at least when they're closer together. Also, all of the Pierce Brosnan being GB's height...? Doesn't Brosnan always wear boots with big heels?
I also saw an interviewon a British talk show with GB circa "RNR". Ater the hosts came back, the woman said, "My, he's a gorgeous big boy." The male co-host then agreed, "Yes,he's a big boy." Would they say that if he were only a six-footer?
ikbtops said on 21/Apr/09
My vote 6' even. 6'0.25" out of bed. 6'2" after two weeks in outer space.
David said on 21/Apr/09
Glenn.... What do you do that you get to meet all these celebs?
sprint84 said on 14/Apr/09
I previously posted that Butler looks 6'2" in the photo, but after Glenn's recent measurement (more 5'7" than 5'8"), I think Butler is indeed the 6'1.25" he is listed here. No offense Glenn.
Those 5'11" claims are as ridiculous as his early 6'4" ones.
bobo said on 14/Apr/09
very interesting. Some people have been going bald for years (Christian Slater, Nic Cage, Kevin Spacey) and then suddelny show no further signs of receeding. SOme members of the public actually think you reach a certain point of baldness and then somehow STOP Losing your hair. I have friends who think Tom Hank's is all genuine hair. What annoys me about the media, is that they will pickon some usual suspects like Travolta, but people like Hanks are allowed to maintain the illusion. The best thing about the past few years is the emergence of
Jason Statham as a bona fide star. I bet there are loads of actors who would want to de-wig themselves but haven't got the guts.
Better say something about Butler...he looks his height in all hsi films. THe below 6 foot crowd are NUTS. He is a big bloke.
Rastus said on 14/Apr/09
Bobo, good ones. I've noticed that Robin Williams has sprouted some thick hair recently. I'm also intrigued that Chris Martin from Coldplay seems to have gone from 'see through' curls to thick and dark.
bobo said on 13/Apr/09
Rastus
Mel Gibson and Jamie Fox are two others. Christian Slater, Tom Hanks.
The media pick on John Travolta for having false hair but not the other obvious ones.
Hugh 190cm said on 8/Apr/09
Actually Brosnan had a slight edge on Butler.
Doug said on 6/Apr/09
Yeah he looks a similar height to Brosnan between 6'1" and 6'2".
Hugh 190cm said on 3/Apr/09
No less than 6ft1. Similiar to Brosnan's height, maybe 1cm under. 186cm is perfect.
Rastus said on 2/Apr/09
Yes, Celebhair.com would be great. I'll start with Matthew McConaughey, Bono and (bizarrely) Rob Brydon, who is now sporting a thick and curly mop after being nearly bald six months ago.

No way is he 6'1.5", hes 6 foot AT BEST, more likely 5'11-5'11.5". Here he is with 5'11.5 Bruce Willis Note that Gerard probably has dress shoes on along with that suit hes wearing and hes still just barely eye to eye with Bruce. Gerard's true height is EXPOSED lol
uhu said on 16/Mar/09
I see no more than 183 cm with Glenn
RisingForce said on 16/Mar/09
Yeah, Butler doesn't even seem 2 inches taller than Colin. Your claim does look good there for Colin. In fact Colin looks over 5'11" there.
I've seen Butler look shorter next to a lot of guys. In fact your head comes up to his eye level and you're both leaning, maybe he's leaning a bit more so I can't see him taller than you by more than 5 inches.
glenn said on 15/Mar/09
interesting pic risingforce.my 5-11 claim for colin looks good there.
RisingForce said on 14/Mar/09
Look at this picture that was posted below of Gerard and Colin Farrell.
Click HereI still say that Gerard isn't a hair over 6'1". His horrible posture makes him look under that sometimes.
RisingForce said on 14/Mar/09
I see Butler look under 6'1" in a lot of pictures and I assume that's posture, but regardless I think he often looks too short to be anything more than a weak 6'1".
bam said on 14/Mar/09
no, he's a strong 6'1, 6'1.5. He isn't far from his 6'2 claim.
Comets said on 13/Mar/09
i'd agree, Gerard is atleast 188cm tall so he is more closer to 6'2 than 6'1
\\-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ said on 13/Mar/09
181cm! He's clearly much talle rthan that. Butler is a very solid 6ft1. 186-187cm.
sprint84 said on 13/Mar/09
Maybe I'm crazy, but I actually see 6'2" in his pic with Glenn (accounting for posture of course). If he straightened up, his eyes would easily clear the top of Glenn's head and with really great posture, I think Glenn would be right at the tip of his nose. As Jim Jones said, that's a pretty decent test for a 6'2" guy.
RisingForce said on 12/Mar/09
Butler is a weak 6'1" and his bad posture can make him look shorter.
Sam said on 11/Mar/09
What are guys seeing?! Butler's an easy 6'1" next to Glenn.
Noman said on 11/Mar/09
check the scene in 300 when Gerard/Leo is taking to 'the captain' while eating an apple. His lieutenant [ who is clearly very tall] runs up to report. He immediately kneels, covering the height difference. Now also look at the lifts on Leo/ gerard, in that same scene, plus the scene with Ephialtes??- lifts are evident. Additionally compare him to Christian Bale in Reign of Fire- they are generally equal in height. I am a solid 5'9" and Bale is a bit taller than me. again the leaness of his musculature is evident..it makes him look taller. Therefore GERARD = BALE = 5' 11 at the MAXIMUM . Another item to consider is that when casting actors, mooost of the time they will not put a 6'1+ tallish with a 5'7ish. Consider Minority report: Tom & Colin /Alexander: Colin farrel & Jared leto [ I stood next to him at a 30seconds-to -Mars concert, and he must be 5'8- 5 '9 . Henceforth my arguement back to 'Reign of fire'...these guys clock in at 5'11" and no more
Anonymous said on 9/Mar/09
I agree with Leo76. Butler is about 181cm, but he does give an illusion of bein taller, could be due to body structure.
Jim Jones said on 9/Mar/09
Hes 6.075 if he straightened out, I'm 6'2 and my tip of my nose touches 5'8
leo76 said on 9/Mar/09
same height as raoul bova and christian bale, i guess 181 cm maybe 180; if you wonder why he looks taller....the answer is 'elevator shoes'.
