I guess 3cm. We had a close up of those boots somewhere below, and I'd say the heels look exactly like those of my winter boots and they are 3cm. I also have boots that give me 4cm and my impression of their heels is a bit different. It's strange but you see the 1cm difference of heels if you can compare it every day with your own shoes. So I guess Johnny is about 1.78/79 when he's wearing theme.

Sereg: they're not the brown boots he always wears. Anyway those boots gives you at least 3cm (my guess)
Aratirion: if Burton isn't taller than 180/181 as you say, than Johnny is 173 in the pictures you posted. I could very easily see 7 cm between Depp and Burton

I found a photo of the boots he always wear! Look at the heels, how many centimeters could be there?

The average person is a half inch taller in the morning than in the evening because of gravity compacting the vertebrae in the back.

Hmm, yeah, depends on what he loses over the day. If he's around 1.75 evening I'd say he is about 1.76 in the morning. I guess 1cm is the average someone's loosing during the day. Anything below or beneath is unusual, I think. (please correct me if i'm wrong, that's what i always thought) Anyway, fits pretty well to my (/our) other calculations.

Oh, I think we already had this pictures with Graham, anyway doesn't matter, they're not bad.
I guess Heather is about 1.72/73, evening let's say 1.72. Her heels probably give her 7,8 cm. (i guess that's the most heels can give you according to Robs "Heel Height Truth" article) She would be about 1.79 then; and I'd say she's 2cm taller than Johnny on those pictures, what would make him 1.77 in dress shoes, 1.75 barefoot (evening height).

Here is another shot from Sweeney Todd: Click Here The posture really seems 5'9;
I think Johnny is the greatest actor of our times and I admire him and his work, so it doesn't matter how tall he is, but it's just fascinating how different he can appear. Some say 5'7 and others 5'11! And, to be honest, I would appreciate a 5'9 Depp because I'm 5'9 myself ...

But I guess there's a better chance he's 5'9. I would say in the 90s he was about 1'77 so everyone listed him at 5'10, and nowadays he may have lost one cm and is about 1,76 in the morning, 1,75 in the evening.
Look at those pictures again: Click Here

If Burton is about 5'11 then 5'9 must be correct for Johnny. (and Burton isn't taller than 1,80/81) It's his build that can make him look taller.

uhh, depp was standing on a much lower platform than dave when they shake hands, hence the huge fake difference in height.
depp could be a solid 5'10er in my opinion.

You can't really go by what you see in movies. It's common practice to make some actors look a lot taller than they are. They have to do it all the time with Tom Cruise and Sylvester Stallone. Here's a clip of Johnny on David Letterman: Click Here
David is supposed to be just under 6'2", and when they shake hands in the beginning Johnny barely comes up to his chin. That would put him around 5'4"

This is a screenshot from the Sleepy Hollow Making Of; The two guys are 5'9 Caspar van Dien and Johnny Depp, both in boots, looking about the same height. What do you say? Click Here
You can see Johnny's figure is very lank, whereas van Dien seems quite muscular, what can make him look smaller on other pictures and shots, whereas Johnny seems to be taller on some other occasions.

On December 3rd 2007, my life was changed forever. On this particular night, I was face to face with a kind and gentle man. He was slight of build and about 5'7" in height. He looked at me and our hands touched as I extended mine out for his and the electricity was exchanged. We laughed over a silly joke. We looked at each other eye to eye. I gave him my blessing pressing my hands together and he blessed me back and said "Thank you, thank you very much"..... That man was Johnny Depp. He is so soft to the touch. Men don't have, for the most part, silky smooth hands...but he does. He leaned into me and I could smell his hair and cologne. It was familiar to me because my late husband wore the same one. How wonderful it was to smell the fragrance again. Johnny Depp is a man that appreciates where he came from and where he is going...he loves US, his fans, unconditionally and shows it. I will never forget that night. I hope that it will not be the last time that I am blessed in seeing him again. That's right, BLESSED!...Thank you Johnny, you made me a very happy person and I will always in my heart thank you for being who you are.

Let's come back to Johnny; I found some great pictures of him and Tim Burton (who, I think, is no taller than 5'11); I guess no one has shoe advantage: Click Here ;Depp --> 5'9 is quite accurate if you ask me

Yeah, this part of the clip is quite strange; I still don't know if the guy holding the widget is shouting his height or someone else because the quality of youtube videos isn't the best; But they said, they do a hundred measurements so I think the Madame Tussauds people measure body height on their own and don't just take a height he or someone else tells them ... However, doesn't really matter ...

@Rob: Yeah, you're right, but do you think they would tell us anything wrong? I mean, I don't think they would say 1,79.5 if he was just 1.78, that wouldn't really make sense, just to say so because of the people who don't believe Bloom being 5'11. I didn't do so either before I saw the bizarre clip, but now this is my evidence.

Editor Rob it's just bizarre, the guy is holding a reference widget near bloom's face and some other voice is calling 179.5cm. Maybe this is just being read out from a previous measurement.
But 5ft 10.66 inches is close enough to be believable for bloom.

Hmm, the comment didn't work, strange ...
However, I just saw a clip of the Madame Tussaud people measuring Bloom on exactly 1,79.5, so I think the wax figures are (+,- 1cm) correct. Someone just has to take a picture next to Johnnys figure and we have a result. @maryn: Are the Las Vegas figures also from Tussauds?

today i believe i saw johnny depp in my neighborhood in new york. while he was seated, i observed that he had black boots on, with at least a 2 inch heel, heck maybe even 3. when he stood up, he seemed about 5'11 to 6' He was taller than myself and others around me by about an inch. Ill get an exact measurement since i saw where his head came across a certain figure. Also he is incredibly thin, about 145-150 pounds in my guess. So i agree with his height being about 5'9 - 5'9.5

Oh, I don't think so. I guess some wax figures are taller than their real life doubles, and some are smaller. (Johnny is never 5'7; 5'8 is absolute min.) I think they just try to make it look accurate, but they can't build them exactly on the cm.

If the wax figures (in Vegas) are true-to-life, then he's about 5'7". Also seems to be shorter than most of the actors he works with-- unless everybody else is unusually tall, then he's kind of short.

Sorry but this is nearly impossible; We can just guess Liptons height and the difference between him and Depp; But here we got two pictures of a 5'8 Glenn with JD, who is (in his boots) more than one inch taller. 5'9 is minimum for Depp. Max. I would say 5'9.5

I have copies of Inside The Actors Studio with Johnny Depp.If you look at James Lipton who is around the 5'5-5'6 mark you can gauge some of the heights.For example he had on Hugh Laurie who is 6'2 and there was a hugh (pardon the pun) difference in height ,probably 8 inches.When he had Johnny Depp on the show,they looked very close in height.Perhaps Depp had an inch or so over Lipton.Look them up for yourself.I'd say Depp is the 5'7 stated above.

Judging from the photos above, I am guessing Johnny, who is leaning towards Glenn in the first photo, is around five feet nine and a half inches tall. Is he wearing heels? Glenn, are you wearing heels? You might consider asking these celebrities to a Chinese restaurant and having them remove their shoes. Then, pose for a photo with them. I notice that Johnny in many photos in the past favors a pair of old, dusty, lace-up boots. I've seen those boots and guess they don't add more than one half inch to his height.

He was the same height as marlon brando in one don demarco and they were both in barefeet near the beach in one scene so they were both about5ft inches. Depp also looked a good 3 -4 inches taller than pacino in donnie brasco.

No, Depp is obviously not standing straight, as he is walking, and you can't stand straight while walking. But it's true, Theron isn't at maximum posture either. But in the second one you can see the difference of about 1 cm. (1.77 Theron --> 1.76 Depp)

Yeah, you're right, you can't really judge from one or two pictures, but these (barefoot) are very good ones, and it's maybe better to look at one barefoot picture than to get fooled the whole movie because of shoes and camera angles. I really believe you that he appeared one inch shorter, no question, I'm sure you tell the truth, but I think there are very few situations in Depps movies where you have such a suitable comparison as in the barefoot pics from AF ... Cause of that and many other pics I still believe 1.76; Nevertheless, thanks for the effort!

The barefoot pics with Charlize Theron are good. The difference between the two is very minimal, at the most there might be 0.5

Thanks glenn! I still think the barefoot picture is more suitable as we can't go sure how big the lifts and her heels were; Still 1.76; I believe you, that he can look one inch shorter (camera, ...) but I think there could hardly be any better pic (and prove) than the barefoot one ...

Yeah, right, looks about the same height as Crook, who is officialy 5'8 (5'9 on this page, don't know why, because they wouldn't say he's smaller than he actually is);
But Depp looks definitely taller than Whitehouse; Just at this specific point he's smaller, normally he's about an inch taller than him; I think the clip isn't really suitable ...

Looks the same if not possibly smaller than 5'8 - 5'9 Paul Whitehouse in this Fast Show sketch despite wearing boots and Whitehouse wearing normal dress shoes. From about 2'10 in when Depp, Williams & Whitehouse are all standing together Depp clearly looks the shortest.
Click Here
Also looks same height as Mackenzie Crook here, but with suspiciously high wasted/long legged trousers.

I would guess he's certainly struggling with 5'9 and quite probably closer to 5'8 on the nose.

Yeah, if they give him 3,5 cm this is probably 2 - 2.5 cm more than normal shoes. So nearly an inch lift on usual shoes ... (on dress shoes maybe a bit less); If Depp is 5'9 or even 1.76 he can appear 5'11ish in that boots ... (same height as 5'10ers in normal shoes)

You highly doubt 1.76? So 5'10 is fanclub height, what doesn't necessarily have to be true; (Brad Pitt fangirls would also say he's 6ft) For me 1.76 sounds most accurate.
So Johnny has never said anything about his height?

I mean, on your pics he's looking a lot taller, but let's say he's 1.76 he would be around 1.79/80 with his usual boots. This sounds quite accurate to me.

@glenn: Yeah, strange; But if Depp was 1.78/77 in the pic with Heather Graham he would have been about 1.80 in his shoes, what would mean he should have been taller than her, but he is definitely one, two cms shorter, so more 1.75/1.76 in my opinion.
@randomperson; the picture is very bad for height comparison; the footpath is sloping to the left, so Johnny can't be taller than pacino (btw; i think 5'6), furthermore he is walking a lot behind pacino; My estimate still is 1.75/76

Aratirion that's a good example of Depp looking below 5'9
You're right, if Graham is 173 she could reach 179 with those heels
but Depp wears very bulky shoes and looks 2 cm shorter than her imo
I see more than one cm between them, at least one inch actually

I found another interesting picture; If Heather Graham (maybe 1,73 tops) is wearing really big heels in that pic, she might be 1,79 tops. Nevertheless she's a little taller than Johnny, who is wearing dress shoes that can give him about 2 cm. Now, if he's 1,75/1,76 he'd be 1,77/1,78 in that shoes, and Heather is about one cm taller in her heels. Quite accurate, just considering that pic. What do you think?

Differences can often fool you. I'm about 5'9 and I was shocked when I saw how close a good 5'5 friend of mine looked to me. My eye-level was just under the top of her head, so the difference isn't that much ...
Here we can't see Johnny and Vanessa from the front, and pictures from the side most of the time suck. Furthermore we don't know for sure, Vanessa's 5'3.5; I still say 5'9/1.75 at the very least, most possible 1.76 for Johnny.

Ok camera angle and all that stuff
but those sneakers give him a full inch
and if you say the difference is 5 inches then do the math:

Jep, i'd say 5 inches. If you consider the shoe difference (Johnnys soles about 2cm?) maybe a bit less. But still, he isn't standing straight and the camera angle isn't the best so at least 5 inches between Vanessa and Johnny. If she's 5'3.5 (.25 listed here) Johnny is at least 1.75/5'9.

I think he's 5'9". It lets him appear taller or shorter depending on posture and the people around him.
I saw someone mention lifts in an earlier post and I just don't see it. It makes no sense for someone who actively tries to make himself ugly to worry about how tall he is. I don't think I've ever encountered someone so beautiful who has so little vanity.
He was shorter than his leading lady in the Astronaut's Wife when both were barefoot. If he had height issues, surely he would have protested acting beside such a tall woman or at the very least refused to do the barefoot scene. I think he likes being able to appear small and delicate one minute and tall the next. Being 5'9" allows him that freedom.

So Adidas Superstar seem to be the same model of shoes Johnny wears on the picture with Vanessa
She has very low sandals and is known to be 162cm
Now Glenn and all of you on this site: how many inches do you see between them in this pic considering Johnny has 1 inch of Adidas Superstar advantage ?
He could very well be 176 Adidas included so 173.5 without... if you don't see more than 13 cm (5 inches). Actually I don't see more than 13 cm between them in this pic

I think we all agree the difference between bloom and depp is 1 inch max(judging from pics and movies).So, if depp is 5-9(he looks it clearly in your pics glenn) then bloom is 5-10.That's my opinion.

I just can't believe it. If he's 1.78 what's Orlando Blooms height then? They're not so close as it seems most of the time. (just look at their different postures) Johnny wears bulky shoes all the time, whereas Bloom doesn't really care about his soles most of the time. And, he's slouching all the time. Johnny's standing straight in most pictures but Orlando is slouching in nearly every picture with him. So there's at least one inch between them. I think, about 3 cm. So if Bloom's 178 (quite accurate imo) Johnny gotta be 175.
I mean, 5'10 sounds logical, but just on the first view. Compare Johnnys posture with some legit 5'10ers. (imagine a 5'10 Pitt) If would have to guess his height just because of his posture, I'd say 5'7. But I'm sure that anything beneath 5'9 is ridiculous. But everything below doesn't really sound imaginable in my eyes. But I confess that they're also 5'11ers that can appear very short.

I think Glenn is right on the money. Mr. Depp is a chameleon who can look anywhere from 5'8-5'11. I think the 5'10 estimate is reasonable because boots and/or bad posture can affect these numbers. He's very versatile as an actor and the physical versatility simply adds to it. He's perfect for Hollywood.

Yeah, if you're considering all that, 5'10 would make the most sense. Rationally seen. But as I said, there's so much that mispleases me about this estimate, such as posture in a lot of pictures (what can't always been explained by slouching) and other calculations. I wish you could meet him, glenn!
btw; they really said "nearly 6ft"? This is shocking, granted, he can look 5'11 tops, but 6'? Nearly as tall as Ed Norton? lol ...

Yeah, he can look 5'8 as well as 5'11; it's strange. 5'10 would sound accurate to me, but there's so much that speaks against it, to be honest, a bit subjective, but somehow I can't go along with a Johnny Depp being nearly as tall as Brad Pitt (who can very well be 5'10 as Glenn said) or Viggo Mortensen (5'11 tops). I know, not really an argument, but the posture is different as well. He definitely is a mystery, but what we can be sure of is that he is between 5'9 at least and 5'10 the most.
Do you think you'll meet him again, in the nearer future, glenn?

I also don't think he's wearing lifts, but with his boots or other shoes like these: Click Here he definitely can appear quite a lot taller than he actually is.
Anyway, I don't think he was 5'11 in the early 90s, when 5'10 is his official height. No one would claim to be smaller than he actually is. This doesn't really make sense. And nevertheless he could have been seen as big as 5'11 due to his usual big shoes.
Anything beyond 5'10 and beneath 5'9 is ridiculous in my opinion, so I still think he's 5'9.

Johnny Depp would be the last person in Hollywood to be wearing lifts IMO. I think he's 5'10" on the dot, though he looks as if he has shrunk in recent years.

he looked a good 1.5 inches under tim Burton. so if Burton is 5'11.5 still,then Depp is close to 5'10 or 5'10,But burton seems more 5'11 flat which would make depp 5'9.5,I think hes that or 5'9.

I got boots that seem to be similar to Depps (concerning the sole), and they really give me 4cm in addition. People really wonder about my height, when I'm wearing these and they ask me if I've grown a lot recently. They can easily give me a 1 Inch lift above other shoes or my friends that are wearing regular ones. This isn't contrary to what Rob says in his heel height truth article; he describes lift shoes not boots, like JDs.
@glenn; yeah he really looks like that, but he could also very well be 5'10.5, couldn't he? I mean, you're the pro so you know best but I think that half an inch difference can't be seen. This is the most I would give Bloom, simply because of the difference to Mortensen and McKellen. This still wouldn't except a 5'9 Depp, in my opinion.

The most those boots have would be 1.5 and even that is stretching a bit - maybe 1.25 - check out Rob's shoe page, Doc Martens and also other very clunky and questionable looking boots never exceed 1.5 - To get an idea of what a 1.5 heel would look like in Menswear - it would look utterly ridiculous. Even the infamous Pitt pictures from a few months ago when everyone was going rabid - even those were only 1.25 max.
So unless Depp has lifts (which is only speculative), those boots look astonishingly normal. I think JD is on the thinner side as well, not as much as Bloom - Bloom is lankier though and that would affect the perception

No, I also don't think that there are extra lifts inside, but I guess that the sole of the boots have about 2 Inches which is a one inch lift on somebody, wearing normal shoes, or even a bit more than that.
Anyway, 5'9 sounds much more possible. If he would be a legit 5'10, Bloom would be 5'11+, what makes Viggo Mortensen a 6footer and Ian McKellen even a bit more. If Johnny's about 5'9 then Bloom is 5'10+ , Mortensen is 5'11 (some people say he is 5'10, but I don't believe it) and McKellen about 5'11.5. This sounds more believable to me. Bloom is tricky, I think he has at least one inch on JD. Just look at his posture. Nevertheless Mortensen and McKellen are taller than him, and I don't think they are in the 6ft range.
But I'm interested in Glenns opinion about this comparisons ..

Aratirion, I really don’t think there is anything extra in those old boots, in the photos I have seen him wearing them he looks his usual height of 5’9”-5’10”.
In fact those boots are so old and worn out that if anything they would have less height than a normal pair of new shoes because those old boots have really lost their shape, the soles would be worn down and the insoles compressed.

the funny thing is jerry is so lanky he looks normal with lifts. Look at his arm length compared to Johnny's. Despite Jerry being shorter he still has longer arms than Johnny. Jerry can really pull off the lifts.

I recently met some friends, that are all about 5'11 to 6 and they're all not looking like that from the distance. I would have guessed 5'10 for nearly all of them, if I wouldn't have known better. This could also be the problem with Bloom. As you said, his posture. He's slouching so often. Nevertheless he's smaller than Mortensen and McKellen on every picture that's suitable for height measures. And this can't be his bad posture every time.
But I agree with you, he can't be under 5'10. Impossible. But a lot of things make it real hard for me to believe that he's 5'11. I think the height he's still listed at (1.78) is really accurate. Anyway, sorry for offtopic.

Blooms height is really hard to tell. I 've seen pics of him looking 5'11 as well as 5'10 or even a little less. I think Glenn's the only one that has met him, so he must have the closest estimates. But comparing him to Viggo Mortensen (5'11 must be quite accurate) or Ian McKellen (also 5'11), he can't be a lot over 5'10. He's smaller on every picture. (btw; the LotR pics are a good source)
Maybe Johnny has bigger lifts than Bloom but I'm pretty sure that there's not less than an inch between them.
And there's for sure

Here is a another pic of Johnny and O. Bloom. Although Bloom is slouching he's a bit taller than Johnny: Click Here
Here you can see their shoes (a better picture): Click Here Bloom is slouching again and is about as big as Johnny.
So I still believe there's a little bit more than an inch between them. Bloom is nearly always slouching so he's bad for comparison, but it tells us he gotta be a little bit taller than JD as he seems to be the same height in those bad postures.
But what did he do to look 5'11 in the early 90s? Bigger lifts than these days?

If Depp had really cowboy boots on (pictures with Glenn), he can't be more than 5'9.
I'm about Glenns height, and when I wear boots with a little less than 2 inch lifts, I appear just a little smaller than my father, who is 6 ft.
Especially on the right picture, Johnny doesn't seem to be much taller than Glenn. (I know he's not standing straight) But at least not the 4 inches, he should be, if he was 5'10.
This pic gives a good impression of his figure:
Click Here
I know some people that are about 5'10 and their figure looks different. Ok, not the best evidence, but considering that many people that were working with him for a longer time and haven't just met him once, say he's 5'9, it makes me believe the same. (this goes well with my estimate of O. Bloom; I think he's barely taller than 5'10) Nevertheless Johnny Depp's one of my favourite actors.

Stench, I saw nothing at all between Johnny and Shia, if anything the only thing I could notice was that Shia was closer to the camera when he gave the award to him. Now I saw the video again, and Shia had barely an inch on Depp, and He looked like Shia next to Duhamel so both heights 5 ft 9 for Johnny Depp and 5 ft 9.5 for Shia are simply accurate.

I just watched one of Depp's films (I won't go into which one!) but there is not a scene in it where he is taller than the other person in said the scene with him. I'd say he was 5'8". That's fine; He's still cool, no matter how tall, or not he tall he is.

Look at The Libertine. In the scene where Depp and Malkovich walk along the arcade I see a 10 cm difference in height and they both wear the same heeled shoes.

Look at those scenes
Look at The Libertine. In the scene where Depp and Malkovich walk along the arcade I see a 10 cm difference in height and they both wear the same heeled shoes.

yes I see Bloom and Depp as very similar height most of the time too, if Bloom is taller then it only looks about 0.5".

ok something really interesting here, in secret window depp stars opposite a guy called charles .s .Dutton who is listed here as 5'9. depp looks remarkably shorter than him, about a good inch and a half id say. its cerainly worth a look.

oh,ok. But is there possibility then for Depp to be 5'9.5 ? because depp sure can look the same as bloom a lot of the time.
I never see 2 inches between them though.1 inch sometimes. so I guess if he has looked as tall as 6ft with normal footwear,then he sure is 5'.10.25 at least. I'm open to that,just that they kinda seem the same with depp in the pirates movies,maybe the wardrobe people rounded up 5'10.5 to 5'11 and I guess gudged depp? haha Depp is tricky next ot Orlando though.

to be fair ive seen him in bulky shoes looking close to six feet next to other actors at premieres. so 5'9 stil looks credable. i personally would like to add that depps posture has changed oer the years. to me he seems to be a bit more hunched in the way he stands than in his younger days. and remember standing with a striaghter back adds a good inch. hes also slightly more built than he used to be adding the illusion of being smaller than he is

i cant see how he would look 5'11 without massive shoes, which he has been pictured wearing. If, as gleen says, he was 5'11 earlier on, then why, in oictures with 3'' platform shoes, doesnt he look 6'+.

i keep sayin it but there are far too many instances of depp looking a solid 5'10-11 rather than under 5'8. it doesnt make sense when you meet him in person and see for yourself. i have had such an honour!i certainly think hes over 5'9 probs nearer 5'10.

Leung, I agree with you he does appear shorter nowadays especially in a few pictures of him filming Sweeney Todd, I can't wait for that film. Glenn's photo with John Malkovich looks like the same difference when Johnny Depp stood next to John Malkovich. I'll buy anything over 5'8.5 and under 5'9.5 for J.Depp

trueheight,
I believe that Depp is between 5’9”-5’10”.
The ‘Illusionist’ thing is a compliment to Depp’s mastery of the art of appearing taller. I don’t think he practices the art much these days because he tends to look his usual 5’9”-5’10” self, but back in the early to mid 90’s he consistently looked 5’11”-5’11.5’ a lot of the time.

again i agree with both of these views.
there are far too many ''deccent'' pictures of depp next to people who are obviously tall for him to be as short as 5'7 as some have suggested. As i have said though it is through meeting somebody that you get the best impressionof height. When i met depp at the Pirates of the Caribbean premiere he looked a strong 5'10 to me including shoes. And the shoes did no look like lifts. Even if they were depp's build suggests otherwise that he is a short guy. His proportins are totally consistant for somebody of his build and predicted height of around 5'9-5'10.

Depp looks taller in the first pic than the second one. In the second one he doesn't look more than an inch taller. If he's wearing cowboy boots in both (which can easily give you 1.5-2 inches), I wouldn't put him above 5'9.

like I have stated, Depp is 5'9.5 in the very very least...most likely 5'10; In "Private Resort" filmed in the 80s, he looks 1in taller than 5'9 Rob Morrow (listed here) in every shot when they are upright and barefoot. If he stretched in both pics, I would not be surprised at a 2in increase over Glenn making him 5'10 indeed.
Also it's quite obvious in both shots above that Depp is at least 1in taller than Glenn, despite slight slouching. Straitening would make him 2in taller = 5'10
And do not mention lifts unless you are able to provide photo evidence that JD wears them. Although we do have the odd shots of him in sneakers, I concede that he does tend toward boot-type shoes. However, we must remember that these types of shoes almost never give more than 1.5 without having the heel look monstrous.
ps, some of you folks need to have your eyes checked if you think Depp looks the same as Glenn in these two pics - he actually looks 2in taller in the 1st pic - with his head tilted down, you must measure from the top of his head which if you find in the pic, is about 2in taller than the top of Glenn's head, who is looking straight into the lens.
In the second pic, he looks again at least 1in taller. Draw an imaginary line from the top of Glenn's head (who's looking upwards this time) to JD's head (which is tilting down again).
As far as the inconsistency w/ Bruckheimer, most of you are neglecting the possibility that it is Bruckheimer who is responsible for the variance (lifts).
"Illusion"? this is a confusing term to me b/c the guy is about 5'10 and has never, to me, looked more than an inch off that one way or the other which is natural due to posture, footwear, and day/night disparity

Years ago when I was working at a famous London department store, Johnny Depp came in with Kate Moss. I couldn't see more than an inch between them. They were both dressed casually and I don't think she had heels on. He was wearing a beret (!) so that might have made him look a little shorter but not by much. If Kate Moss is 5'6", I'd put Johnny at 5'7" max. He was very friendly and chatted with one of the shop assistants for a while and bought a very expensive old book.

yeah Depp is one of the truly gifted height illusionist, but I think he might be retiring from the difficult art form because his taller appearances are less common these days. Now he is usually looking 5’9”-5’10” but during the 90’s he was consistently looking a lot taller, I guess his priorities have changed.
Eddie, you are right about him being a masterful height illusionist, I would definitely rank Depp in the top 3.

hmm but i disagree from the point of view that depp is tilting his head downwards slightly in both pictures and straightening it like glenn would extend depp at least another half an inch. There are too many times where i have seen depp looking a solid 5'9-10, for example the day i saw JD at the POTC 3 premeire in London, he was about two inches taller than me including shoes. i am 5'8 for sure.

xD is right...besides keira is NOT 5 7...she is 5 6 / 6.5 at the VERY max...some people reported her to be about 5 5.5 which shocked me cuz she does look tall in movies...Want proof that JD and KK are not as tall as you think? Watch the first Pirates of the Caribbean where both Captain Jack Sparrow (Depp) and Elizabeth Swann (Knightly) are stranded on that island by the villians of the film. You will notice that they are both barefoot and that Depp is hardly that much taller than Knightly when they standing in front of each other. Honestly, he looks about 1-2 inches taller than her. So...my guess is with him around 5 8.5

Since we know that Keira Knightley is 5'7" and she's probably about 3 inches shorter, we can assume that Johnny is most likely 5'10". Take a look at the photos for AWE with Rush, Keira and Johnny. She's about 3 inches shorter than Johnny.

They looked exactly the same height, so I think anything over 5'9" is out of the question for Johnny.

My mistake, Johnny is between Shia and Tyrese's height. Taller than Shia but shorter than Tyrese. I think the hollywood media makes up Johnny's height. I don't think actors are even asked to give their height. I personally have never heard or seen Johnny Depp say he is 5'10 in any interview. If Johnny Depp was robbing a bank, I think most people would describe him as 5'10 to the police. Shia Labeouf on the other hand looks more 5'8ish to me, but then it could be his boyish shoulders that's making him look short.

Johnny is walking between the Toyota Prius(58 inches or 4'10) in the background and the Saturn VUE(66 inches or 5'6)in the foreground the highest point of the Prius is behind the man in front of him. He looks very 5'9ish in this picture. I am a very big fan of Johnny, that's why he is the only one I research on this site.

Anon if he is as short as you say he wouldn't be 5'11 even with lifts. You can really only gain about 2 inches unless you put lifts in cowboy boots and that looks really weird. He does wear stuff with chunky heels sometimes, but doubtfully with lifts. He is 5'9" he looks average, but not short.

He appeared taller earlier in his life, my guess is like many others; he doesn't care about his height these days, so he doesn't wear lifts anymore.
To me, he looks exactly 5'8.75

I think he's somewhere between 5'8"-5'9". Maybe marginally touching the 5'9" line !
Just saw Pirates III yesterday (great movie by the way !), and he was barely taller than 5'7" Keira Knightly, both in their flat shoes. I'd say 5'9" maximum.

It's true that Johnny Depp looked roughly the same height as Jay Leno (who is 5 11), but there are several factors I think people are overlooking when they view Johnny Depp:
1)He enjoys wearing shoes that make him taller (ie cowboy boots, dressy shoes, boots, etc.). These type of shoes can make him taller than he actually is.
2)Johnny also enjoys wearing clothes that make him look taller. At important social gatherings like the Oscars, movie premiers, etc. he tends to lean towards flashy clothing. It is proven that dressy apparel can make you look taller than you actually are, especially if you are farther away from cameras and photographs. If one person was standing say twenty or so yards away from a dressy Johnny Depp (like at the Oscars for instance), that person's eyes will be decieved by how tall really is. His flashy clothes and shoes will make him definitely look taller than he actually is.
3)Lastly, it also proven that cameras and photographs can make you either one of two things: fatter than you actually are OR taller than you actually are. Why do you think models and famous actresses try to stay as thin as they are or try to get thinner. They KNOW that cameras and photographs can make them look fat. They also maintain their body weight so that they can appear taller (Keira Knightly is a prime example. Look at her in the second Pirates of Caribbean movie premiere. I thought she was like 5 9, when in fact she is ONLY 5 7). Going back to Johnny, he has a very slender body. It would only be right to say that every shot can make him taller than he actually is (along with the type of clothes and shoes he's wearing).
So, taking in all the important factors that can make a person appear taller, I would have to say that Johnny Depp is either at 5 7 or 5 8 or maybe somewhere in between.

isnt jay leno 5'11'' or something? because in johnny's 1994 appearance on jay's show he looks to be just about the same height as jay, maybe an inch shorter...

Yeah your right Glenn those old boots do look fat but I do think that it’s mainly because they are really old and have lost their shape and are deteriorating.
I do believe that Depp is somewhere between 5’9”-5’10”. Maybe I’m wrong but any photos I have seen him wearing the old boots he does look like a 5’10” person, if he had lifts in them he should look close to being a 6 footer.
I’m not denying that Depp has lifts in his arsenal of footwear, but I do think that his old brown boots are just regular shoes.
I’m curious Glenn, did he look taller then usual when you encountered Depp wearing his old boots?

derbi, I am also convinced that his old boots don’t have lifts in them. We are talking about those worn out, old brown shoes that look like Depp borrowed from a homeless derelict. The reason I believe this is because in the photos he is wearing those old boots he appears 5’10”. If they had lifts in them he would be closer to 6’.
I don’t deny that Depp has footwear that gives him height advantage because we have seen him looking taller but they are not his brown street-bum boots.

UNK, he also gets rarely caught in "norml clothes", because thats just he style. I once heard depp saying in an intevie abour his old boots: "These are good old friends of mine". I pretty convinced he doesn't have lifts in them, also because if he would wear lifts, then why always in the same pair of shoes? Wouldn't be te best way too fool people about your height...

unk i agree with you 100% my view exactly. however id like to add that depps slim figure in my opinion puts him to the 9.25 end of the scale.

Yeah, I get your point...
But it shows that he is not above wearing thick heels. Also, his dirty old combat boots are suspected of having lifts in them... people have posted some close-up examples of some strangeness going on there... so don't just assume they give him an inch.
Also, he is very, very rarely caught in casual sneakes.. always some kind of funky shoe or boot. The times he is caught in normal sneaker/shoes he looks shorter.
My guess after seeing 100s of pics is that he is 5'8.5" - 5'9.25". If you look close enough you will see it too. Rob did, he used to have Depp at 5'10".

@UNK,
yes I know that during a period of time he used to wear shoes like these. But I don't think because of the height they give him, more because of the style...
There are a lot of photos of depp with marylin manson, both wearing this kind of shoes... And manson is really tal enough... You got my point?

Felix, he doesn't wear bulky shoes. The boots he like to wear very often don't give him more than an inch. And if the wardrobe says 5'9" that doesn't mean 5'9", that means around 5'9", and could as well be 5'9.5" or 5'10".

Guess it's what keeps the site going... but it's funny how a few new-to-Depp's page people will come in saying 5'10" and we will have to prove him back down all over again.
Depp and lifts - We don't know if he wears lifts. We do know, and have posted endless pics, he many times wears extremely thick soled goth style shoes (bono type), the same suspicious combat boots for 15 years... and is never caught in regular sneakers.
5'8"-5'9" pics - There are dozens. Starting with Glenn's above, in one he has on cuban 2" heels for Donnie Brasco, Jerry Bruckheimer somewhere below, Kate Moss, Keith Richards, Venassa Paradis.... the list goes on... oh yeah,talk show appearances.
Sightings/Quotes - So many people, look at the quote at the top of the page, have been surprised at Depp's short/slight build real-life appearance.
Sorry, I don't have time to repost all of the evidence, but if you start at the bottom of the page you will find most of it. The general feeling here is he is no more than 5'9".

Upgrade Depp? Glenn talked with the wardrobe on Pirates of the Caribbean and they said 5'9 so that's maximum! He do look 5'10 sometimes but he can wear bulky shoes and sometimes as low as 5'7 like in Fear in Loathing. but he ain't 5'7 and not 5'10..5'9 morning absolutley but could be 5'8 night. :S

yes, I agree with the last few comments, I doubt he is a lift wearer, and I really think he is 5'10". He looks around 3 inches taller than stiller, and if you look at recent pictures of him with orlando bloom, you'd see that they are very close in height.
RobI really think youshould consider to upgrade depp.

yes treuheight i think depp is most probably above 5'9 and very likely 5'10. although i wouldnt personally say he looks 4 inches taller than stiller more lke 2.5or something. i.e pause at 2:54 to see that

Eddie: it's so easy to say "oh he wears lifts" - evidence? some ppl just have long shins.
And as Rob's Sneaker section points out - there are very few shoes out there that give more than 1.5in - which is what regular Doc Martens give
