Viper trolling lol.
LL is over 6foot. I saw him in Waterstones in London (2010) He is a genuine big guy. I'm 5'11" and he was taller and wider than me by a fair bit!

LL wears small lifts at times. It would explain some of the fairly wild height flunctuations in his pics.
How does he look under 5-11 next to 6-4ish Eli Manning yet a lot taller than Reggie Bush.
Answer is some type of lifts. I certaintly dont think its the lifts of Sly Stallone or even Tom Cruise, but anyone with decent vision and some type of intelligence can put 2 and 2 together and see he does get some considerable height lift in some of his footwear.
It also explains why hes officially 5-11 on press kits and the such.

6-1 barefoot is outlandish. 5-11 and change max guy. Cant believe how many are getting fooled by his footwear. Or even ignoring that his official height is 5-11.
6-0 Jay Z also looked taller than Jonathan Ross. Jonathan Ross is simply overinflated.

Hey Rob I think this will shut everybody up about LL's height. He is 6'1.25" minimum.

He was the same as Jonathan Ross. LL in flat tennis shoes and Ross in heeled dress shoes. He is 187cm.
Viper how can he wear lifts. If you see the Ross interview you can see his footwear pretty clearly - they're flat!!. I've seen the Bieber, Cruise, Pitt, Cowell photos of their footwear and you can tell they have inserts because of the pointed raise. But LL was rocking flat tennis shoes and he was same height as Ross.
5-11" my ass!

Hes listed at 5-11 on press sheets and other functions.
Hes a 5-11 guy that can look taller, also with the right footwear.

No way is he under 6', that is utter B.S. He virtually towers co-star Chris O'Donnell in NCIS: LA who I suspect is 5"8.5- 5"9. 6" 1.5 is correct for sure.

He does give off a 5'11" impression to be honest but that could be due to his body builder frame. Because he looks like a 6 footer next to guys like Jonathan Ross etc...

In movies you can tell this guy walks funny and I think it's cause he has big lifts in his shoes. I think he really is 5'11 like that early press kit said, perhaps 5'11.5 mabey but he can appear around 6'2 in his lifts.

187cm would be about right. He was about 1 inch shorter than Samuel L. Jackson in S.W.A.T who at that time was at least 6ft2.5.

The problem with LL is his massive head. He may be eye to eye with 50 in that picture, but he has at least and inch and a half on 50 from above his eye level. Why do you think he rocks hats all the time, its because he has a massive domehead. Check out the Swat picture (with Farrell and Samuel L.) that Jtron posted and you can see that the distance from his eyes to the top of his head is far bigger than on Samuel Ls. If he took his cap off in that picture with 50, I think you would see that he is clearly taller.

Click Here - there, with 50 cent.
Its not often I disagree with the site...but, in this picture he seems to have pretty much 'perfect' posture, well, no worse than 50 cent, who is leaning, who is lets say 6 barefoot
I'm sorry but I'd have to say I can't see this man being even 6', a strong 5'11 maybe
I think he is someone who perhaps is 5'11, and wears very thick soled boots, which will take his 'in-shoe' height to 6'1 or thereabouts
Though having said this, this mans height seems to wildly fluctuate..
*FYI 50 cent is wearing dress shoes in the photo*

i'd buy 6ft 1.75" (morning height) and a 6ft 1.25" (evening height), but this is the funny thing, I know Viper goes on about LL rocking lifts, but I saw a video the other day on youtube, and LL got asked "what would u like for people to stop doing?" and LL replied "guys wearing HEELS" "you need to stop that B"
If he's confident in saying that, then he must not wear lifts?
he does look a strong 6ft 2 in public appearences.

Okay I will admit it, he sometimes looks a solid 6'1 but his stocky frame and bad posture gives the impression of him being 5'11 tops which I originally thought. Also if he can look 6ft1 range when he straightens up then 186cm would makes more sense.

all due respect i think Viper's got some sort of personal vendetta against LL, pretty clear that James Todd Smith is a tall dude.
Viper's going with one statement and thats from the '96 Vma's when he performed 'doin it' and they said he was 5ft 11", don't you think that was some sort of mistake - i mean they do happen.
LL Cool J is 6ft 1.5 at least.

He probably is this height, like zach said, he has a big pointy egg head, his he always wears hats to hide it, but the top of his head is easily 2+ inches above where you would think it is in those hats. See here - Click Here . You can even see where his hats would normally come to on his head in that picture, courtesy of the top part of his head being a lot lighter due to lack of sun exposure.

50 looks 5-9 with a measured 6-1ish Adrien Peterson. He also looked the same height as 5-10 1/2 max Chad Michael Murray. I give 50 5-11 at the max.
Check out the shoes that LL is wearing. Not his usual big Timbalands.
Rock at 6-3 1/2 -6-4 is insane. Thats Randy Orton's height and he had 1-1-1.5 inches on him. Rock is 6-2

LL is 6ft 2. people don't realise it, but LL has got a big pointy egg head, but becuase he wears a hat all the time, he looks shorter. these 5ft 11" claims are absurd!
he looks taller with footwear, films like IN TOO DEEP and SWAT prove it.

I think this is the most overlisted height by far on here. And yeah, even Glenn saw the guy at 5-11. But then on the flip side Glenn did his usual crazy upgrading and said he looked 6-3 as well.

LL wears small lifts on occasion. His real barefoot height though is 5-11. They wouldnt have announced him as 5-11 at the 1996 MTV video music awards otherwise. Hes done a great job over the years into duping people that hes over 6-0 when hes really not. Even Glenn of all people saw the guy at 5-11 before.

Viper i disagree, LL looks 6ft 2" with footwear. If you watch re-runs of The Freshprince & In The House, both LL and Will Smith tower over Alfonso, and the gap is about the same size.
I'm 5ft 11" with shoes, and I'm no where near LL's height.
James Todd Smith is 187cm

LL is 6ft 1/ 1.5 , i can remember seeing a picture of LL and Jay-Z who is a solid 6ft 2", and LL's eyes were just slighty under Jiggas.
all this talk about him being 5ft 11" and 6ft is a joke, LL has been 6ft 1+ since he was 16 years old.

No way is he 6'2", LL is probably between 6' and 6'1" if he stood up straight. I'm 6'2" and I would never look as short as LL even if I had a major slouch. His 6'3" claim is a joke, 6'1.5" is a stretch, I'd give him 6'0.5" personally.

yo look at the pics!!! if he stood up straight, he would easily be 6'2''!!! I'm amazed how some of you for whatever reason want to pin people down as shorter! i myself grew from being 5'11''-6'2'' at the age of 20, ending around 22. It is very common for men to have growth spurts around college, as I saw with most of my friends as we sprouted 1-3 inches between freshmen and junior years.

I saw him when he was a teenager outside of MSG in NYC. He had a crowd around him and was at least a head taller than everyone asking for his autograph. I'll put him at 6'1.5". He does stoop alot, which may add or take away from your perceived height perspective. I mentioned that I saw him when he was a teenager, because I would think at that time in LL's life he didn't think of using lifts in his Nikes to make people think he was taller than he is.

His height is really hard to work out. Here he is with Will Smith, but even though Smith is slouching a bit, it still looks like LL is taller and he has a really high crown, which is probably why he nearly always wears hats, and probably gives the impression he is shorter than he is.

He does not look anywhere as tall as 6ft 1.5. But the 3rd photo shows us that his pose for the camera is bending down. So in fact could I think he will reach 6ft 1.

how come nobody can be over 6' on this site. Everybody's gotta be 5'11.5"

He could be 6'0 at the most. I remember in Deep Blue Sea he only looked a bit if any taller than Rebecca Romijn who is 5'11.

Didnt think he was this tall, thought he was about 5'11,perhaps because of his stocky frame.

yea, why is he rated as 6'2?
next to Glenn he doesnt look taller than some guys who are rated as 5'10 on this website
and besides that 5'11 guy in the other pic he looks the same height
so maybe he slouches a lot and is 6' in fact, but 6'2? i cant see it

I watched an episode of LL's TV Show called In The House on channel TVone on Apr 21,2007 and on that show was former running backs Eddie George & Rickey Watters doing a golf scene, now Eddie's web site bio & NFL stats lists him as 6'3" and Rickey's NFL stats lists him as 6'1" now Rickey in some moments looked slightly taller & other moments they seemed to be about the same height LL had on sneakers i could not tell if they were golf shoes & Rickey had on metal spiked golf shoes, i did not notice what type of shoes Eddie had on but you can clearly see that Eddie towered over LL and Rickey having to look down at them when they spoke to one another a good 2.75 - 3", the episode may replay again this week.

i agree that he is closer to 6ft, maybe 511.5, but what baffles me is those pics of him with Hugh Jackman. In one pic you see he's wearing what looks to be normal running shoes, but he looks huge compared to Jackman, those are the only pics ive seen that make him look over 6ft.

I love this guy.I've been a fan since walkin' with a panther, read his book, seen him live etc. His height has always been a mystery and a lot of times I heard 5'11" and that seemed right. So I watched 30 Rock last night and there were at least 2 scenes where he and Alec Baldwin stood face to face and Baldwin had at least an inch on him. I don't hate cause I love this guy he's been an inspiration to me but he's no taller than 5'11" in shoes.

if anyone can post that pic of him with the rock, that would pretty much help end this debate. He's not the 6'3 he claims. Honestly he looks 5'11 in that picture, but he's most likely 6-6.05 in person.

I saw LL at Benihana in Manhasset, Long Island, NY. I'm 6'0 to the exact dot - no rounding either way - literally exactly 6'0 and I stand up perfectly straight, especially to gauge height. He was taller than me. I am not gonna speculate an exact height, but I will say signifigantly taller, and noticably taller for you guys to run with. Also, he stands up straight and has ridiculous muscles.

Yo peeps I’m back. I have changed my name to Super Smoke, since there is another smoke around here somewhere.
After seeing any episode of Tyra Bank’s chat show, I am finally in agreement that LL is 6"1 but no taller. Here is why:
1. Tyra Banks is 5”9-5”10 and was wearing 2-inch heels.
2. LL was about 1.5 to 2 inches taller that her.
3. If Tyra is indeed 5"10 barefoot, 2 inch heels would make her 6ft. LL had 1inch trainers on but was still a good 2 inches taller. What is LL taking away an inch on his trainers??? Do the maths lol.
Minimum height for LL is 6.05.
Looking at the pic with the Rock - somewhere below, there is no way LL could be anywhere near 6”3 people that say that are crazy. That’s like me saying I’m 6”2 – I am 6ft in case any one was wondering.
I have to say he (LL) got me for a number of years. Someone needs to tell that guy to sort out his posture. It’s terrible. If he carries on like that, one day he really will be 5”11 lol. Rob your input please.

Not to drag up auld ground, but with reference to the comparison to Westwood down below, Westwood is a clear 6'5. I've heard it twice recently; Vernon Kay (6'4) spoke about Westwood being taller than him, and an interviewer had him at 'almost 6 and a half feet'. Hope this is helpful for something.

For Smoke,
At VMA'S, maybe it was 50 cent who was wearing lifts and not LL and so they had the same height, This solution explain and confirm that LL is 6ft 1.5 (because 50cent is 6ft0 so with lifts he could be 6ft1) but we don't know if it's the reality so .....
Sorry for my bad english, I'm french.

Viper, he would have to had 4" lifts to be THAT tall. I'm no fool and I'm usually a great estimater of height, especially when I'm face to face with someone. He's not under 6'0".

Not regular sneakers Viper. They have a heel, which can boast your height by around 1.2 to 1.5 cm. However there are some trainers like Nike’s Tn's that give a 1.7 cm boast. Come on there must be at least on person on this site who has wore a pair of Tn's and felt really really tall. Taller then they would when wearing any other type of trainers. Rob your views please.

Editor Rob you mean inches I think...
tn's, they do look pretty thick beasts, I'd be surprised if they weren't in the 1.5 inch at least looking at them, 1.6-7, I dunno about the insole...

Look LL cool J is no taller than 6ft. Have any of you seen this year's VMA’s? The man is the same height as 50 cent. 6ft max I am sorry. Trust me shoes can add 1.7cm to your height. If you are a well-built guy and are 6ft, trainers can give the impression that you are like 6ft 2/3 to the untrained eye, especially if the person looking up at you is wearing flats. Trust me I know. I am 6ft, I have a friend who is 6ft 1, yet when I wear my Nike Tn's I seem a few cm's taller. He even thinks I am taller than him some times. I don't need to lie about my height, because I am not as vain as LL. LL thinks he could get away with saying he is 6ft 3 because no one here is ever going to meet him barefooted. Yo Glen I tell you what, next time you see him ask him to take his shoes of and stand next to you, I bet he will try and punch you in the face for asking that lol. If he does then that is your answer lol to his height. If he was 6ft3 he would wear flat shoes most of the time. Tall people tend to wear flat foots, because they don't want to seem imitating.

In Swat he looked taller than Samuel L. Jackson at times, and then other times shorter. I think Jackson is about 6ft1.5 these days maybe 6ft1, and LL's probably about 6ft maybe 5ft11 plus, and favors big heeled footwear. He wore big cop boots in Swat, similar in H2O,same for Mindhunters, and boots in Deep Blue Sea. He always looks big on screen, but he's seems to follow Vin Diesel's approach.

Nah, he's over 6'0" Viper. HE couldn't have had 2" on my 6'1" actor friend if he was a mere 5'11" himself. I just don't see it. I stood RIGHT in front of him. Like ONE foot apart from him. He was all decked out in an armani suit, which probably cost 10-15k.
