How tall is Jake Gyllenhaal

Elais said on 1/Dec/24
@5'11 sunny No, it's not that he was 5'10 1/2 and lost an inch because he was not standing with his legs properly. That will likely not result in any height lost, only the posture could have been slightly better if anything. It's the camera angle that's not in his favour making him look 5'10 1/2. Conan himself said 5'11 and we saw closer to 5'10 1/2

7272 said on 2/Oct/24
IS he was visibly taller than Devon Bostick who's listed here at 5'10 ½ but i think he's 5'10 ¾

Click Here

I think he's still a solid 5'11. Hasn't lost any height

IS said on 29/Sep/24
Needs a downgrade to 179.5

james222 said on 29/Sep/24
Rob I am 182.6 in the morning and around 180.5 at the end of the day. Do you think me and Jake would be height twins?

Elais said on 28/Sep/24
I'd say he's a solid enough 5'11 guy and his eye level helps him look taller, because his eye level seems between 4.25 to 4.5 inches at most

Owen Yu said on 27/Sep/24
Rob, do you think a flat 5ft 11 might be a better listing?

5'11james said on 26/Sep/24
180/180.1 usual low

179.5/179.6 after a long day of filming

Andrea said on 25/Apr/24
Too bad there was no scene with them standing together in the movie, but here he is with Travis Van Winkle: Click Here

The tape cart is at 6 ft mark how many inches of space did Conan give to not bump him on the head

5'11james said on 29/Nov/23
181.8 out of bed
180-180.5 in the afternoon
179.5-180 before bed
179-179.38 as a absolute low

Flat 5'11 guy

CEO of #SixZeroMafia said on 28/Sep/23
I don't see how there can be any debate on this. On Conan's show Jake measured 5'10.5", and that was in socks. Jake is probably 5'11.25" out of bed but I thought we used evening height on this site...

Slim1.75m said on 20/Sep/23
How can Jake be over 5'11 if ledger is 6'0½ so jake must be 5'10½ 5'10"¾

5'11james said on 4/Sep/23
180.2cm is a perfect average guess for Gyllenhaal.. that's what he most likely is in the afternoon (180-180.2cm). Same as me.

Joe Ponce said on 31/Aug/23
Could you see him at a peak of 5ft 11½in, Rob?

Abdul 5'10 said on 27/Aug/23
5’10.25

Jake: 1.84 m - 1.85 m said on 26/Aug/23
Yeah - that was the range I pegged him at around too, I think that'd be a solid listing. A page would be great, good character actor.

Also, there are several pictures of him with Spike Lee (looks a solid 6 inches taller) and Gwyneth Paltrow too. They're very good ones to go off.

Jake: 1.84 m - 1.85 m said on 25/Aug/23
Hey Rob,

Can you please add a page for his Rendition co-star Omar Metwally?

Good character actor, has appeared in many shows including Mr Robot etc.

He looks tallish - could he be 5ft 11- 6ft range? Similar to Gyllenhaal etc and maybe a bit less than 6ft 1 listed Gavin Hood. Plenty of good premiere pics to go off.

Would really appreciate your thoughts, think he'd be a great add. He's done a lot of stuff.

Henners said on 7/Jun/23
Jake is 5ft10 178cm barefoot there is not a possible chance he could make it 182cm in footwear 181.5 at best

Precision Guy said on 1/Jun/23
You are all off on Jake...he is 5'9 - 5'10 with footware. Heath Ledger was 5'11 barefoot...

Zmowm said on 14/May/23
5'11

Maxhigh said on 11/May/23
He's not even 181 in the morning...He is obviously a weak 5'11, he needs a downgrade.

Jawilder said on 28/Apr/23
He’s not 181

Jawilder said on 28/Apr/23
He’s 5’11 max. I still think he’s 5’10.75.

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Apr/23
I think 181cm is still an ok figure for Jake. I doubt he goes below 5ft11. Straight out of bed could hit 6ft on the dot

Alex Schoenberger said on 24/Apr/23
Y’all jakes about 5 11.35 if I had to guess he was measure at night and still looked over 5 11 in my opinion rob has it almost perfect slight upgrade

TurtleZach4 said on 21/Apr/23
@Rob

Seeing him next to Reynolds

You think it's fair to say that Jake's within the 180-180.5 cm range instead of 181 since Reynolds is a legit 188 cm

I'll wager in that

Jake is a flat/weakish 5'11 guy (180-180.5 cm)

Ryan is a flat/solidish 6'2 guy (188-188.5 cm)

Height Analyzer 2 said on 15/Apr/23
I do believe he's height twins with someone like Jake Paul, so a flat 5'11 is fair. He probably wakes up in the low 182 range, falls to about 180.5ish during the afternoon, and is no shorter than 179.5 by the evening (assuming a long day of work) - his normal low would be 180. So if he's 182 right out of bed and 180 by the end of the day, 180 or 181 is fair. I'd probably lean closer to the former, but with perfect posture (which Gyllenhall admittedly doesn't have), the latter is probably his true height. Keep the listing as is, or downgrade slightly to 5'11. Anything below 5'11 is absurd

Rockaway said on 13/Apr/23
Has a large head that makes him look shorter. I’d personally have him listed at 5’11 flat.

Malcolm Oliver said on 28/Mar/23
I think this is the highest he could measure

5'7 and a fraction said on 17/Mar/23
I'm sticking to 5'11 flat for now. I doubt 5'11 1/2 though.

5'10-Abdul. said on 12/Mar/23
I think he is 5’10.5.

Keyten DeGraef said on 9/Mar/23
Rob if I’m being honest I’d put him at 5’11 I don’t see him being 5’11 1/4 much less 5’11 1/2

berta said on 26/Feb/23
yeah beside ryan reynolds he could look almost 4 inches shorter in some shoots but overal i think just over 3 inches is the real difference. 188,5 or 189 ojn a good day vs 180-181. Probably 188,5 vs 180,5 is the closest to the truth.

Tallish guy said on 17/Feb/23
Rob what do you think about his father Stephen Gyllenhaal? On imbd hsi height is listed as 6 ft. There are also a lot of photos of them together.

Abdulrahman said on 26/Dec/22
5’10.5 / 179 max.

Gian 181cm said on 14/Dec/22
~181.5cm - Morning
~180.5cm - Noon
~179.5cm - Night

180.5cm/5'11
Maybe he can claim 181cm with those measurements, but he'll be bested by the likes of Ben O'Toole.

QM6'1.5"QM said on 26/Nov/22
Reynolds is 6'1.75- 6'2" and Jake is 5'10.75- 5'11". He looks like this in "Donny Darko".
Remember Ryan has skull bigger than typical man or even man of 6'2" tall, plus huge hair.

Take a look on Matthew Fox and then on Ryan Reynolds ... it's def big difference in their head sizes.

I think he's a good 5'11 guy, but sometimes he looks only 5'10.5 because of posture and bad camera angles.

@Rob is it possible to downgrade him at 5'11 on the nose? He doesnt look 181cm quite often. He looked 1.5 inches shorter than 184cm Paul Dano here Click Here , sometimes even 2 inches when he's slouching.

@Malcolm Oliver, I would go with latter. Gyllenhaal just doesn't hold up as a strong 180 like Leo.

179 - 180 range

Malcolm Oliver said on 28/Sep/22
Or I might be wrong and he matches Leo and edges Brad. Either or could be the case.

Malcolm Oliver said on 28/Sep/22
@berta
Nah, I don’t see Pitt edging him, in fact they are probably exactly the same. Maybe DiCaprio edges them out by a bit, but it’s hardly noticeable.

berta said on 29/Aug/22
i think 181 is overlisting him. He could be that height but tht is absolute max for him. Not many would agree but i think brad pitt could have a couple mm on him. I could see peak brad 180,5 and maybe lost 2-3 mm now and gyllenhalll flat 180 cm.

MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 5/Aug/22
@ 5'7 and a bit

Jake looks about 3 inches smaller there. I agree with Robs listing of Pratt at 6'1.75 so that would make Jake about 5'11 or 5'10.75 at shortest

Stephen William Lancaster said on 1/Aug/22
5'10". Poofy hair.

Turtle Zach said on 9/Jul/22
Rob, I think Jake Gyllenhaal is a flat 5'11 guy (not a weak or solid 5'11). Will edge out weak 5'11 guys like Fassbender and Pitt. Sometimes, he can look like a solid 5'11 guy like your listing tho. What do you think

Riedl181 said on 8/Jul/22
Is 182,5cm to 180,5-180,3cm a possible range?

5'11 sunny said on 7/Jul/22
I had watched jake Gyllenhaal in late night show of conan brien. I think he was 5'10.5 on the tape. But he had not stood with legs properly that's why he lost almost an inch. Do you agree?

5'7 and a bit said on 4/Jul/22
Nobody looses height naturally at 41 years old.

Joe Ponce said on 1/Jul/22
I like to think at a very young age (preferably in his early to mid 20's) he was a peak 6ft. You think it's possible, Rob?

Neige said on 21/Jun/22
Rob, is 5ft 10.5 possible?

Dnaq said on 14/Jun/22
I’m 6 foot and stood next to him once. We were very close in height. He did have thick boots on but I wouldn’t put him below 5’11.

@MaskDeMasque 5'9.5

Again, I don't think DDL is 6'1". Regardless, even if you think Dano is 6'0.5", Gyllenhaal still doesn't look anything over 5'10.5" next to him.

@MaskDeMasque 5'9.5

That's because Dano isn't as tall as 6'0.5".

5'10" at best.

I don't think Gyllenhaal is 5'11 ¼ either, but it amazes me how despite Rob making a video perfectly explaining how the video is not the best representation, some here seem to think "oh well there's a tape measure here, so case closed, no ifs no buts," without allowing a second thought.

MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 23/Apr/22
He looked 3 inches shorter than yahya Abdul in Ambulance who's listed at 6'1.75.

@Tall Sam

He looks between 1.5 and 2 inches shorter than 6'0.5 Dano

5'10.75 makes sense. 5'11 at most.

5’9 1/2” is too low for Jake. 50 Cent appears to be comfortably taller than 5’10” Mike Tyson, who Rob has met, and Jake looks only 1/2” of an inch shorter than 50. I think Jake Gyllenhaal is at least 5’11” based off of that comparison. The difference between them is only very slight.

Ok Im going to be really honest with you rob. In my opinion I think Jake Gyllenhaal is 5ft 9 1/2. Based on the photo with the tape measure. The tip of his head wasn't touching 5ft 11 or even 5ft 10. I disagree with you Rob about the angle. Moving on to lance armstrong, who is 5ft 9, and matthew Mc,who is 5ft 10 1/2. Jake looked slightly taller than armstrong and at least an inch taller than Mc.

Rowan182cm said on 19/Feb/22
Jake always looked average to slightly above average height to me. 180-181cm I'd say he's a solid 5'11

5'11 flat for Jake seems more likely

RohitM said on 9/Feb/22
@Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10'- here's another shot

Click Here

Both screenshots are taken one after another. Guess the host hasn't moved the tape up or down. Even from this angle he looks close to tape-case. Exactly leveling with the hair. Now when he presses the hair in the same video his hands go down to 2cm.

In addition,I agree what Rob said about angles. But there's another kind of angles he didn't noticed. First the tape isn't straight. Second she's holding the tape at his toe while the guy measuring held the tape-case around his head!!? Do you think toe and head are aligned? Ideally the base of the tape should be held around his heels.

So there's atleast one factor ,the tape ain't straight will cancel 0.25inch. The second factor or toe-head alignment ,I don't know how much it will take but it definitely will cancel out reasonable amount from 5'11. Then at last the hair. By no means he looks onscreen 5'11. Though I might be wrong but this is what I observed. But in my opinion, 5'10 is 5'11 and even 5'9 is comparable.

Mohammed 170cm said on 7/Feb/22
@Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' - I got your point, and I agree.

Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' said on 6/Feb/22
That's correct,Rob, i hope this would work, both are standing tall, but even considering the tilt, Jake is still a hair under Kimmmel, so 5'11 for him (Click Here)

Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' said on 6/Feb/22
@Mohammed well on paper, it's a very little difference, but when comparing height, especially when we compare ourself to other person beside us, 1 inch is a really noticable amount, in my opinion anything above 2 cm is noticable

Mohammed 170cm said on 4/Feb/22
@Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' - Jake is 180 (5ft11), that's not much over 5'10", its only an inch. Basic Math.

5'9.5 is a joke for Jake, he is easily as listed. Here some 6ft guy with Jake, and 5'11.25 listed Finn Jones, and 5'11.75 listed Dylan McDermott.

Jake actually looks tallest of them all.

Same 6ft guy here with 6ft listed Christian and 5'11.5 listed Isaac Hamstead.

I think Jake is somewhere between 182-183cm. Weak 6ft.

Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' said on 3/Feb/22
@RohitM @viper

Rob also done measurement in similar shot with Jake and he's only 5'6,5 or 169 cm there,and we all knwo that ROb is a super legit 173 cm even regularly measured above that, so i think in stadiometer, Jake has a good chance to be much over 5'10, maybe even better than guys like Brad Pitt or Leo.

Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' said on 3/Feb/22
@scooby doo maybe that's not a good example because i'm failing to see your message here (Click Here) i have Jake at 5'11 flat maybe 5'11,25 at most on a very good day but ain't no way he's much under that, the picture with Mcconaughey and Lance are a bit tilted and Jake dropping a bit of height there.

scooby doo said on 30/Jan/22
In my opinion I think Jake Gyllenhaal isn’t 5ft 11 1/4 to be honest I think he’s 5ft 9 1/2 based on the pic with Conan and the measuring tape. People say it’s the angle, in my opinion it isn’t the angle. Check him with lance Armstrong who’s 5ft 9 and Matthew Mcconoughey who’s 5ft 10 3/4 or 5ft 10 1/2. He’s slightly taller than lance Armstrong but maybe an inch shorter than Matthew. So 5ff 9 1/2 for Jake.

RohitM said on 20/Jan/22
Actually was the tape was bent too. Also what rob said in his video that the tape was close to camera. There was another shot with tape exactly above hair in the same video. So guess removing 0.5 for his hair he is in 5'10 range.

viper said on 18/Jan/22
Yeah the measurement shows no more than 5-10

RohitM said on 15/Jan/22
I want to question again.

Hes max 5'10. Even below when we remove the hair.

@Tall Sam yeah, but i would go with him being 5'11 flat, because he look noticably shorter than both Jimmy Kimmel and Fallon, tho they can look over 181 cm, but doesn't make Jake their height twin either. He maybe closer to Brad Pitt and Mcconaughey area

Tall Sam said on 6/Nov/21
Funnily enough, Conan on his podcast with Jake praised him for his willingness to be measured. Probably holds his own with Di Caprio.

i think dicaprio would be taller than him. Dicaprio 181,5 and gyllenhall 180

I think this listing is accurate. I doubt he's anything under 5'11 and I feel like he can appear tallish. The hair does probably help a bit with perception.

Flat 5’11

Eusebiu - 6'1" (185 cm) said on 4/Oct/21
He is definitely in the 180-181 cm range and in my opinion he is an honest man.

Judging by pictures presented I see him around ~3 cm shorter than Heath Ledger (listed 184 cm) and around ~7 cm shorter than Ryan Reynolds (listed 188 cm).

Although he claimed 5'11.5 (182 cm) and also 6'0" (183 cm) on different ocassions, I do believe those claims might be his morning height.

All in all, I believe that his listing (181 cm) is spot on.

Johno said on 2/Oct/21
Pre-Conan measurement, I can see that the majority of Celebheight users had him at 5'10+, 5'11 and it seems they sort of correct.

Conan's height measurement skills are almost poor as that pedestrian who measured Kimmel's height at 5'11.75 and Hart's at 5'4+, I don't see how he read 5'11.5 so basically to me, he was exaggerating and who could blame him? Jake was a guest on his show, he isn't exactly going to lowball him.

What is clear to me however, Jake is 5'10+, that much I can derive. The top of his hair seemed below the 5'11 mark and the tape measure was only a few inches forward near his toe as compared to the top of head in relation to the camera thus, the perspective wasn't really blown up in scale. He was below 5'11 at that point in time, somewhere between 5'10-5'10.5, this is likely an evening measurement. 5'11 could be his top measurement.

The man wasn't that much shorter than Jimmy Fallon and similar in stature to Jimmy Kimmel so he isn't a short guy, an inch above average for an American male. I believe he would be the same height as Dicaprio if they were to be barefoot.

Gyllenhaal 5'10.25-5'10.5 evening, ~5'11 morning
Fallon ~ 5'11
Kimmel 5'10.25-5'11
Dicaprio 5'10.25-5'11

Giovanni said on 27/Sep/21
Just watched the movie Southpaw. If 50 cent is close to 6' then Jake is close to 5'11". I suspect anywhere from 5'10.75-5'11", nothing below or above that.

Pere said on 24/Sep/21
@Rob what do you think is his out of bed and before bed height.

MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 14/Sep/21
Watching new Jake film the guilty, pretty good. He looks close to 5'11 in it without suspect footwear. 5'10.75 is more likely than 5'10.5. I doubt he's the full 5'11 though, let alone a quarter over.

Jawilder said on 14/Sep/21
I think the average guess is around he measures. Anywhere between 5’10.75”-5’11.

One of my favorite actors 👍

Johno said on 10/Sep/21
Gyllenhaal is such a sport, open enough to be measured on national television. Saying that, he did appear to be over the 5'10 mark, somewhere like 5'10.25-5'10.5, the metal tape measure was angled slightly but then again his posture was pretty loose so he could of stood a bit better. There I can see him measured by Rob at 5'11 if he were to do so but that would be a morning height.

5'10.75 it is.

Stinky 186 cm said on 29/Aug/21
Jake Gyllenhaal is an amazing actor Love all of the (or at least most) stuff that he’s in and he’s about the same height as one of my best friends I’d say he’s a solid 5’ 11 1/4”

Jake said on 28/Jul/21
Looking at the video w/ Conan when the camera zooms in it appears that Jake’s eye level could be in the 5’6-5’6.5 range if you take into account the angle of the camera etc. So really 5’11.25 would probably be the very max he could pull off around afternoon. Would you agree, Rob?

MaskDeMasque said on 11/Jun/21
Watched nightcrawler again tonight, great film. He's noticeably a bit shorter than Bill Paxton. Bill was 59 in the film so was prob around that 5'11-5'11.25 mark by then. 5'10.5-5'10.75 range for Jake.

Slim 6'1.5 said on 1/Jun/21
Ledger would’ve edged him by at least 1.5 inches

ItsOverAnakinIhaveTheHeightGround said on 26/May/21
Conan said 5'11 when Conan measured him here, Click Here, but from this direct camera shot he was slightly below 5'11.

Considering the fact the show was probably in the afternoon, I'd say max 5'11 1/4 for Jake, and 5'10 1/2 min. Give or take a quarter inch.

Its a very flexible height range to convincingly pull off playing either 6 footers or smaller 5'10ish characters.

I see more than a three inch difference there. I see around 3.25 maybe 3.5. Which puts Jake at 5'10.5 maybe 5'10.75.

Weirdly enough he looks a lot taller than Scott MacDonald in that particular scene, surely over 1in of a suggested height difference. I think some serious footwear advantage came into the play or maybe even standing on the top of a box lol.

Joseph Lee Townley said on 25/Oct/20
Not a chance he is 5ft 9 3/4 at best... here is the vid.... look at the tape measure, he is nowhere near 5ft 11.

Click Here Time stamp 3.11 and you will see he is 5ft 9 3/4 used a program for CAD to find that.

Andrea said on 23/Oct/20
Rob, I'm sure you've already seen it, but look at him with Bill Paxton: Click Here Of course the ground is not ideal, but if anything Jake has the advantage (in the first part), given that it generally slopes towards the street... Yet he still looks clearly shorter. By how much is the question, but I doubt it was as low as 1/4 inch (and Bill looked nearer 5'11 flat with you!).
I know your thoughts about Conan's "measurement", but even based on that, I still wouldn't rule out 5'10.5-5'11 to be honest (all you can tell is that he's likely somewhere near 5'11).
If you see him with other measured guys such as 6'2 (probably more 187 at his low) Stephen Curry Click Here , 6'2 5/8 Von Miller Click Here and 6'7 Harrison Barnes Click Here (or Ryan Reynolds Click Here ), I certainly wouldn't say it's impossible. Even Conan can look over 5 inches taller (albeit in probably more footwear) at the end of the clip Click Here !

I’d say 5’10.5 is his lowest and 5’11.25 (181 cm) at his highest. ( maybe 5’11.5 181.5 cm at his highest possibly) but yet again I’d say say he can still claim 5’11

Bora said on 14/Sep/20
Well he's not shorter than 5'10" for sure.

Kebapsever said on 6/Sep/20
I don’t think he measures under 5’11. So 5’11.25 is a good guess.

George nano said on 2/Sep/20
I’d say decent 5’11 maybe a little over, those people who say on the comments that he is 5’9 is laughable. I can’t take those comments seriously and 5’9 is a total BS!

LogicalLB said on 18/Aug/20
In the movie Velvet Buzzsaw there is a scene where Jake is standing facing Zawe Ashton (who is 5'10), and he's barely an inch taller with shoes on. So I would say 5'10.5, maybe 5'11 peak in the morning.

He might very well be 180-181 cm. His body proportion is not great and often makes him appear 177-179 by himself. When he is with other actors he does look 5'11+. Short legs can make anyone look shorter than they are.

How is this still debatable?
At Click Here Conan's show in 2015 he was measured barefoot, in socks actually, (unless there are also elevator socks, which would a f***ed up thing) and he was clearly 5ft 10.5 to 6ft.
Have in mind that his legs were not straight and the show was probably filmed midday, it's safe to say that Jake is a legit 5ft 10.5 to 10.75 guy.
I think his posture is always bad so I could definitely see him as 6ft guy if he stands straight.

Accurate listing, he could be 180.5-181 cm before bed, 182.5-183 morning, which i view as a tallish guy. In October Sky he seemed tallish and he could pass for 6'0

He's only 5-11 in shoes.

hello rob. have you seen his movie Donnie Darko? i mean i guess you have. the movie came out in 2001 when he was 21 but he was probably around 19 or 20 when it was filming. i wanted to ask you what do you think of his height in that movie? when i look at him now, he does look like he is 181cm tall. but in that movie he seemed a bit shorter. honestly he didn't look more than 5'10'' there. what are your thoughts? could he have grown an inch or so after that movie?

5'11 with a 5'10 proportion on Conan show.

Logan M Barringer said on 26/Oct/19
@ Rob he isn't a tough one since there seems to be so many measurements and good photos of him. Wouldn't put him under 5'10 or over 5'11". Based on the pick with Von Miller I'm gonna say 5'10" and 3/4ths out of bed with 5'10" and 1/4th going to bed. Gyllenhaal is about as average as you get.

viper said on 22/Oct/19
Von Miller is 6-2.25-6-2 3/8

Jake is 5-10.25-5-10.5

Pretty much what he measured on Conan.

Rob are tape measurements really that accurate? Because I asked my dad to measure me to see if I've grown anymore. Last time I was measured was visiting the doctor and they said I was 6' 3" barefoot. But when my dad measured me, I stood up straight and tall not leaning against the wall like when Jake Gyllenhaal was measured, and he said I was only 6' 2 1/2". Then I asked him to measure me against the wall which he did and he said I was 6' 3 1/2". He then measured me one more time against the wall and then he said I was only 6' 2 ish. And I stood up straight all of those times.

Keep in mind Conan's show is being recorded earlier in the day. Jake might be only 5'11.

Hey Rob, Gyllenhaal was measured at the Conan show and he was exactly 5 ft 10 in, or 70 inches (1,78 meters) Click Here

5 ft 10 / 1,78 m, just average.

Guest66 said on 8/Sep/19
@Greg, Go and watch Rob's video take on that measurement and you will understand that person can look significantly shorter standing next to the tape like that. Conan clearly said five eleven, was he playing a nice guy and gave Jake a little extra or was he just brutally honest about Jake's height you will never know. I believe that Jake is roughly a 180cm guy, hard to see him below that, so probably 5'10.75" at worst.

No way under 5'11", got measured in socks on a show at his low and people still think he is as low as 5'10"? The tape was closer to the camera, ofc its not as accurate as a proper measurement but quite clear that he is more 5'11" than say 5'10" or 6'.

crayon said on 9/Jul/19
If Jake is 5.11 barefoot then Ryan Reynolds has to b at least 6.1ft1/2 barefoot but in Hollywood I would guess celebs usually claim the 'dress shoe height' which means 6ft for Jake and 6.2ft1/2 or 6.3ft. This is quite obvious when viewing their recent movie together and red-carpet photos

TheBat said on 30/Jun/19
@pov

Agreed. A lot of people claim their shoe height and claim that, but it's understandable why lots of guys do that. I usually claim my barefoot height which is 5'10.5" but at times I'll claim 5'10" or 5'11".

pov said on 28/Jun/19
I literally think he's in the same situation as me. I'm 182cm measured barefoot which is techincally not 6 foot (5'11.75). But in shoes I range from 184-185cm depending on what I'm wearing. I claim to be 6 foot and no one really questions me. He is most likely a solid 6 foot in shoes too. Lets not forget, most guys get measured in their shoes, so most guys claim to be an inch taller. I understand why he claims 6 foot, as I do too.

@Editor Rob Then what about a 5'11 1/8 listing for Jake? It definitely seems to be more likely than 5'11 3/8 or 5'10 7/8....

179cm guy said on 21/Mar/19
@Editor Rob So does that mean that you'll give him a quarter inch downgrade to 5'11 flat? 180-180.5 is the range in between B and D which was the minimum and max that you'd guess him at. I personally can't see him edging out someone like Ralph Fiennes.

179cm guy said on 20/Mar/19
Rob, which zone would you drop Jake in?

A) 179/179.5
B) 179.5/180
C) 180/180.5
D) 180.5/181
E) 181/181.5

billionaireslayer said on 20/Mar/19
5'10 to very strong 5'9 guy, yes they rounded up for him on Conan. Him and John Stamos would be close in height, with Jake barley edging him out and I think Dicaprio would edge Jake out by about half to 1 inch.
