looks around 6'0.5 (184 cm)
Mastro said on 2/Jan/13
Funny that people are quoting the life sized cut outs- do you really think they get all six sigma with those? They could easily be an inch or so off.
balrog said on 25/Dec/12
The slight downgrade is perfect Rob. Also I'd put Galecki under 5'5'' now you add Nayyar at 5'7''
Jack said on 23/Dec/12
I think 6'1" is right for him. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would lie about his height, so when he said he is 'six-two' he probably meant it in shoes.
Johnnyfive said on 29/Nov/12
I watched him on Leno the other night and when Jim was talking about a life sized cardboard cutout his mom had of him he said "its 6'2" obviously the cutout is in shoes because its from his show so if he's 6'2 in shoes, then that means he's 6'1 barefoot (185cms).
tony t. said on 26/Nov/12
Thought he was like 5'11 or something closer to that. Didn't realize he was quite this tall.
alex said on 7/Nov/12
Definitely NOT 187cm. Closer to 184-185cm. He doesn't that much taller than 5'4 Simon Helberg. 187cm is way to tall. He needs a downgrade.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Oct/12
Yeah 186-187cm looks right. Close to 6ft2
balrog said on 21/Oct/12
He's bulking up for the role of Flash I think. 185-186 cms.
Silent d said on 7/Oct/12
6 foot 1. Rob did you upgrade him from 6 foot 1? I remember he was listed as 6 foot 1. He is deceptively built. He looks lanky but i think he wears layers of clothes to make himself bigger.

Parsons is probably a solid 6'1'' and pretty skinny. In TBBT looks 6'4'' because the rest of the cast is short, the tallest male after him is Kunal Nayyar (Raj) who looks in the 5'7'' range.
SolidSnake said on 3/Sep/12
Looks about 5'11'' on BBT. Maybe I'm missing something
Mix said on 29/Aug/12
I thought he's 6'2.5" at least.
witchdoctor said on 14/Aug/12
He's a flat 6 ft1(1.855m)
Tommy said on 11/Feb/12
I think maybe he's a bit below 6'1.5. He looked a touch taller than 6'.5 listed DJ Quall appeared on the show. I don't think it was a full inch. 6' is too low. I'd go with 6'1.
SIlent d said on 9/Feb/12
Solid 185cm.
I KNOW said on 2/Feb/12
I know for a fact Jim Parsons is 6'. 2 inches shorter than Letterman. The same height as other 6" guys. People don't look at dimensions. Like me.
MrGoodGuy said on 25/Jan/12
I should mention that I like this actor and his portrayal of Sheldon in TBBT, yet I feel this is an obvious over listing. Judging solely based on the show my estimates for the cast members and the video clips with Letterman where he was clearly a bit shorter (an inch or a bit more) I thought 6.05". In perhaps the most recent episode Sheldon is shown in solid looking footwear looking shorter than a 73" inch life sized cardboard cutout of Zachary Quinto which can be found as identical to the one found online through Google stating this 73" height. Accounting for the possibility of a shoe with only .6 inch heel and his mediocre posture perhaps 6 foot is even more accurate, the 6-2 claim may have been made in order to cover up the true height of the smaller cast mates.

That's 5'6.5 Lionel Messi with 6'3.5 Pique, that's 9'' difference. Parsons never looks that tall with Galecki, he definitely needs a downgrade, like i said in my first post, he's 6'1 TOPS, probably a solid 6' guy, 6'0.5 (184 cms) accurate for him.
bob said on 19/Dec/11
Obviously towers over the usual characters on Big Bang Theory but they are all really short, and he is also skinny which gives him the appearance of someone that is very tall (I have a similar situation most of my close friends are in the 5-6, 5-7 range and I am a skinny 6-1 so people think I'm 6-3 or so). In reality he probably is in the 184-185 range.
Trevor said on 9/Dec/11
My friend looks the same as him and claims the same height: 188cm, which is clarely wrong. Parsons is 184cm IMO.
Chris said on 6/Dec/11
In the Big Bang Theory he looks two inches shorter than Penny's ex boyfriend Zack, besides he never looks 9'' taller than 5'5 Galecki. He's 6'1 tops, probably 6'0.5
Silent d said on 2/Nov/11
I can live with 6 foot 1. When he said he was 6 foot 2 on letterman, i was laughing. He is not that tall. 185cm is good for him. He towers over everyone on the show except for penny's ex boyfriends. They are huge except for leonard.
ArjunaKorale said on 27/Oct/11
I'm sorry Rob, but I have to tell u that u are a fair bit wrong with this listing - I have to agree with many of the comments below that Parsons is actually around 184 cm (a fraction over 6 ft tall). So I STRONGLY DISAGREE with your height listing for Parsons. U r rarely wrong mate with your listings, but this is one exception!
jake, 1.82 m said on 12/Oct/11
He's 6ft 1in (185 cm)
Gracien said on 25/Sep/11
There's an episode on TBBT with 6'0.5" (184 cm) DJ Qualls as guest. There is one moment where Parsons and him are standing right next to each other and Parsons didn't look taller, actually they were pretty much the same height. (

As for the footwear, Parsons wore that (

Besides... you'd think celeb's know their own hight, wouldn't you?
essie said on 26/Aug/11
tss..silly site this... we dutchies are all a lot taller (my ex is 6'10") so 6'2" isn't a big a deal! Jim: if you're tired of always looking down, do come to Amsterdam to meet people your own size! LOL ;-)
ka said on 21/Aug/11
in an interview with craig ferguson he said he was 6'2''
Truthman said on 1/Aug/11
6'2 is insane! He is inch shorter than Letterman, barely taller than George Lopez and noticable shorter than Ferguson. Rob, he has 6ft claims before. He is 6ft or 6'0.5
tb4 said on 22/Jul/11
Hes so tall compared to the other actors in the show. When i watched the first time Big bang theory i thought he was like 6`4. He is probably 6`1.5 and very skinny.
Jonas said on 27/Jun/11
I think somewhere between 6'1 and 6'1.5 is a match for Jim.
In this pic with Jason Sudeikis, that is 6'0.5, Jim look near an inch taller

Jerry said on 16/Jun/11
6ยด0.5" should be spot on, this listing is a little bit off.
Jason Cooper said on 2/May/11
he is 188 exactly..
Andrew1995 said on 19/Apr/11
haha i thought he's about 6'6''. He seems to tower above everyone in bbt
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/Apr/11
6"1(185cm) might be nearer...doesn't really look 187cm let alone 188cm
Benj said on 19/Mar/11
AD- those photos are composed and photoshoped about-probably tell you very little about their height difference
AD said on 22/Feb/11
I'm not sure he needs downgrading, you see Jim and Johnny Galecki together constantly and Galecki only ever reaches the bottom of his chin. Galecki has a realistic height of 5'5", from bottom of chin to top of head is 9" which would make Jim 6'2" ...these photos show footwear....

Shorter than Craig Ferguson, can't buy anything over 6'0.5
Steve said on 29/Jan/11
He's more 6'0 than 6'1.
jtm said on 28/Jan/11
ad the problem is we don't see what footwear they are wearing or if the ground is uneven or not. i also think kaley cuoco is shorter than 5'6. there was one episode of big bang theory i saw a week ago and cuoco was the same height or a hair taller than galecki when they were both wearing socks.
AD said on 25/Jan/11
I think this picture shows the cast's heights quite well:
Click HereJohnny Galecki (Leonard) 5'5", Simon Helberg (Howard) 5'4.5" Kunal Nayyar (Raj) 5'8", Kaley Cuoco (Penny) ..5'6" (probabably got more heel than the boys)... Jim Parsons I'd say in comparism near enough to 6'2".
Also, in my opinion, one of the most entertaining and gifted actors on modern day TV!
jtm said on 25/Jan/11
he has been listed 6'0 before and i think that is closer to the truth.
Anonymous said on 25/Jan/11
Jim seems much taller than this. Maybe it is cuz he is so skinny and lanky, and the rest of the cast is much shorter.
1.80 m boy said on 24/Jan/11
Shot! rob 4 the add, 6ft 1.5 in sounds about right
Anonymous said on 24/Jan/11
