Wasim you are Wrong!! Robert is not 5'8", hes more like 5'7". I'm pretty good a judging height. Go back and watch the movie Weird Science you will see his real height. I'm 5'9.5" and he doesn't look close to my height

Whats with all you people!? he is a great actor , thats all you need to care about. I mean if you really want to know, check his height up but you DON'T have to discuss wether or not he is one foot shorter or not! with all due respect but dont you think thats a little pathetic?

I'm guessing he's about 5-8.75 at the highest and the lowest 5-8.25.

He does give a 5'7", 5'7.5" illusion sometimes Brad. Especially in his early films or with Gwyneth Paltrow and Keanu Reeves. I still think the mugshot is accurate though. 5'8" barefoot midday.
You can see he's wearing lfits from a mile away. The worst part about it is that he doesn't get longer pants to cover them. He also often doesn't wear shoes specifically made for lifts. Cruise is a master at it. He can look like he's a solid 5'9" without suspicious looking footwear.

Those shots Rising put up make me think he might be 5' 7.5". Those are sick pieces of footwear. Doesn't he know that people see that garbage? Dial 1-800-Cruise and ask him about expensive stealth shoes. I would have run from Paltrow after seeing those shots. How do you walk in those things? I guess you pull up and drop like Herman Munster.

Even though pictures from this day were taken, I don't think any were these embarrassing. With his pants bunched up they look 4 inches too short.

Even with those he's still atleast 2 inches shorter than Gwyneth Paltrow is in heels. Paltrow is also bending her knees so she doesn't dwarf him even more.

I like Robert, but I still can't help but find his methods for looking taller amusing.
Sometimes I get the impression that he's in the 5'7" range because he looked it in some 80's films as well as the pictures with Gwyneth Paltrow and Keanu Reeves. Still I think Glenn's picture and the mugshot confirms that he's about 5'8" flat midday/evening and about 5'8.5" when he wakes.

I finally saw "Ironman". It was obvious that he was heightening. I noticed that in many scenes, he seemed out of proportion for his apparent "movie height". For example, his arms and torso appeared to lack necessary length.
I'd give him 5-7 in bare feet.

Here are some pics of Downey with some 5'7" - 5'8" guys, most of them are taken before his frequent use of lifts began. Most appear to be taken at night so he has prolly went most of the way to his minimum of 5'8" - 5'7.75" :
With 5'6.5" (5'7.5 peak ) Elton John : Click Here
Another with Elton at a better angle, they look the exact same height but Robert is tilting his head slightly forward, he would have 0.5" - 1" if he straightened his head up : Click Here
with 5'7.5" Rove McManus , both have poor posture but theyre in line so you can see they are very very close in height anyway. maybe 0.5" max in Downeys favour although there is only 0.25" in this particular pic : Click Here
Downey with 5'6.5" Peter MacNicoll back in Downeys Ally Macbeal, pre-lift days ( incidentally the difference between the two is the same as when Downey is with Ben Stiller when he isnt in lifts! ) Click Here
Downey in thick black heeled dress shoes ( he was wearing the ones he wears in some pics with Keanu Reeves and at the Zodiac premier, i cant find pic tho ) which give maybe an extra 0.5" over heeled height making him around 5'9.5" here. As you can see, with 1.5" gain over barefoot, with perfect military posture he is still being destroyed by a regular dress shoe and relaxed, leaning Zach Braff by 2.5" in this pic. ( I think Zach Braff is between 5'11.5" and 6'0.5" ). Similar to Kilmer, Reeves and Favreu ( where he sported bigger lifts with all them! ) Downey struggles to even come near A CLEAN 5'11" with lifts and perfect posture. in the aforementioned pic : Click Here
Downey in lifts getting ANNIHALATED by Terence Howard and Gwyneth Paltrow, Howard must be a little over 6'0" ( listed 6'0.25" ) which makes him about 6'1.25" minimum in the pic im about to show, Downey is a clean 3" less ( and the worrying thing is that Downey is standing slightly ahead of Howard but we will negate this as his legs are slightly wider apart ) so 6'1.25" - 3 " = 5'10.25" . So in these silver sneakered elevator shoes, Downey is just a shade over 5'10". they prolly have 1" on the outside and 1"-1.25" on the inside. That means roughly the biggest Downey can get in these shoes is just over 5'10" which I belive is what Glenn coined him at ( Glenn? ) So once again, Downey in Lifts cant even match 5'11" !!! lol here is the pic : Click Here
So what do we know, Downey in lifts cannot look around 5'11" and just over 5'10" seems to be the biggest he can reach. Whenever the guy is liftless, he has the appearence of someone in the 5'7"-5'8" brackett ( just talking appearence, the smallest he is will be 5'8" ) He never appears in the 5'6" - 5'7" Brackett and rarelly appears in the 5'8" - 5'9" brackett when not in his lifts or elevator shoes ( i tend to mean both when i say "lifts" but I know theyre different )
I know I always eventually tie it in with Stallone but Downey regularly wears similar and sometimes worse elevator shoes than Stallone and still struggles to get to that 5'11" mark, whereas Stallone not only OWNS 5'11" but also 6'0" and even 6'1" sometimes !!
Downey however, cannot, no matter how hard he tries, hide what he is ..........a GENUINE 5'8" man.
RIGHT your doing my head in now! don't take it so personal, all i'm saying that, above was a lot to write about ONE person height, I don't want to look at the stalone page i don't want to say it to them, im talking about that one specific amount of text where you wrote loads which really stood out, seriously i just made a general comment why are you taking it so personally? and from reading it, it also seems like you want downey to be short, like really really badly, but why?! :S

No thats called obsessive mate!! i can understand a curiosity into celebrities heights and general discussion but that amount of detail to ONE persons height is unhealthy, I'm not nocking you or nothing, each to there own and all that I'm just saying its quite extreme! surely something so trivial can be summed up without writing all that!
go say the same thing on the Stallone page. try Danimal...ALex..........Risingforce...Glenn, go see what they say . No need to reply to this. end of matter.

I think your right rising. Bear in mind , we was also out partying all the time being young and new to hollywood so could have been out partying all night the night before. I still think he is no shorter than 5'8" in the evening other than rare exceptions ( late night after a day of heavy manual work and physical activity. ) 5'8.5" morning is still my solid estimate. Just interesting to see how short he looked there though.

and here is a scene of Robert Downey Jr, liftless ( hopefully ) , in "Weird Science" with lots of people. Seriously, notice how short he is compared to everyone else in every shot and especially the full body shots. Look how short he is compared to Robert Rustler ( who claims 6'1" but looks closer to 6'0" in just about everything , see "sometimes they come back" ) . This is the first and only time I've ever seen Downey look in the 5'6"-5'7" brackett, he is usually in the 5'7" - 5'8" brackett but he looks really really short here compared to Rustler......and ..........well, everyone, lol !

In that mugshot photo, he could be just a tiny tad above, about 5-8 and 1/8.
Somewhere below is a proper study of the Mugshot pic. He is 3mm approx under 5'8" with his shoes off. He is in prison issue shoes and midday if my memory serves me correctly. My friend is a security guard at Heathrow and has met Downey jr face to face and barefoot . He said Downey was about 5'10'ish but then took his shoes off and was around my height ( around 5'7.5" evening ) although I think my friend has called it wrong, I think Downey is 5'8.5" in the morning and around 5'8" - 5'7.75" evening depending on height loss.
I also watched weird science the other night and to be perfectly frank, Downey was TINY in it. Outsized by every single other persn that appeared on camera, and im including the group scenes :p

Both Glenn and Downey are leaning, Downey is slightly closer tot he camera, if you look at Glenn's left shoulder you can see Downey hitching over it, we dont know the ground but he is about 5'10.5" in this pic if both him and Glenn stood perfectly straight on even ground and in line. I cant remember what he was wearing bu prolly his silver sneakers with 1" outside and 1.5" inside.
Look at the mugshot Random, he is 5'9" in prison shoes at midday and according to Rob height charts often give you more than is reality, I think because he is right up against it though, he is only gaining 1/4" MAX in the mugshot.

Im 5'8" in the morning, 5'7.5" most of the day and I fall to about 5'7.25" by evening MOST of the time. And I sometimes just give 5'8" as my height to round up , so even when he is listed at 5'9", i still dont think that is too bad. He admits to bein shorter than Gwyneth Paltrow so he isnt that insecure, I think it was really after Skanner Darkly when he started to take the lifts outside work, and then Kiss Kiss Bang Bang was when he finally went " good, I can wear these bad boys and it adds to me a wee bit " . Its just he would be a great ambassador for 5'7" - 5'8" range guys as he is a handsome and talented gentleman, but his desire to join the 5'9" - 5'10" club is quite off putting, some of the shoes he has worn are just embarrassing, and the fact he cant quite get to 5'11" in any of them makes it even more embarassing. When he was in Ally Macbeal he was known as being "a short cutey" and Ally often remarked on how she liked him but he was a bit short..............in fact maybe this is where it came from, his insecurity I mean. Polly mentions the fact he is noticeably short in Chaplin, this is a film where he is regularly seen in full body shots, in flat shoes, on stage and even ground, with Marissa Tomei, Dan Aykroyd, David Duchovny and Diane Lane, and he is quite short. He is owned totally by 4" or so by Dan Aykroyd who I always actually thought was 5'10" - 5'11" so im guessing Aykroyd is at least 6'0" flat. This is a film where he embraced and celebrated his size and it worked a treat. Then there was Only You where heplayed this cooky guy who is quite average and short and not that impressive an he is trying everything to convince Marissa Tomei that he is the man of her dreams, he is shown again as a rather short guy in this film. In fact, it goes as far as to show both Marissa and Downey barefoot and eye to eye and the difference is 2" - 3" MAX in Downeys favour which is why I think Marissa Tomei is 5'5" to 5'6" at least.
I do think this is a non story though.

Robert is about 5'8" so an article calling him 5'9" isn't too bad. I think that's what he claims. I've seen Downey listed at 5'10" as far back as the late 80's/early 90's though. 5'10" for Downey is ridiculous, 5'9" is false but not ridiculous.
That's probably correct. Tabloid nonsense. He obviously doesn't have a problem wearing heels otherwise he wouldn't wear shoes like this to a premiere.

Well Glenn this is certainly good for your Jude Law at 5'11.5" argument. Even with truly monster shoes Downey is still shorter. This really kills the 5'9" claims for Law.

I'm just surprised he had a problem wearing the shoes considering what he's worn in recent years. He admitted wearing lifts in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang too.

I've thought all along Robert was 5'8". If you look back at "Chaplin," for example, he's clearly no taller than that. I wish he didn't feel the need to wear lifts or whatever. He's got a beautifully proportioned, athletic build. I think he's perfect the way he is.

OUCH! I tell you I think this is a non-story. He prolly cracked a joke after tripping in the shoes nd its led to all this furore. One one hand they are saying he is short in the article then on the other hand they call him 5'9" ( his resume height, so maybe he just goes in shoe height like alot of people do , or he just lies like alot more do )
Even at 5'8" he aint that short. If they had seen some of the things this guy has voluntarily walked around in just to try and look 5'10" I think that is actually a more interesting story.
Id say Jude Law is proll 5'11" at the least and maybe 6'0" . NEVER as short as 5'9" and 5'10" is an outside shot but I think 5'11" is fair for Jude.

Here are some pics of Downey with some 5'7" - 5'8" guys, most of them are taken before his frequent use of lifts began. Most appear to be taken at night so he has prolly went most of the way to his minimum of 5'8" - 5'7.75" :
With 5'6.5" (5'7.5 peak ) Elton John : Click Here
Another with Elton at a better angle, they look the exact same height but Robert is tilting his head slightly forward, he would have 0.5" - 1" if he straightened his head up : Click Here
with 5'7.5" Rove McManus , both have poor posture but theyre in line so you can see they are very very close in height anyway. maybe 0.5" max in Downeys favour although there is only 0.25" in this particular pic : Click Here
Downey with 5'6.5" Peter MacNicoll back in Downeys Ally Macbeal, pre-lift days ( incidentally the difference between the two is the same as when Downey is with Ben Stiller when he isnt in lifts! ) Click Here
Downey in thick black heeled dress shoes ( he was wearing the ones he wears in some pics with Keanu Reeves and at the Zodiac premier, i cant find pic tho ) which give maybe an extra 0.5" over heeled height making him around 5'9.5" here. As you can see, with 1.5" gain over barefoot, with perfect military posture he is still being destroyed by a regular dress shoe and relaxed, leaning Zach Braff by 2.5" in this pic. ( I think Zach Braff is between 5'11.5" and 6'0.5" ). Similar to Kilmer, Reeves and Favreu ( where he sported bigger lifts with all them! ) Downey struggles to even come near A CLEAN 5'11" with lifts and perfect posture. in the aforementioned pic : Click Here
Downey in lifts getting ANNIHALATED by Terence Howard and Gwyneth Paltrow, Howard must be a little over 6'0" ( listed 6'0.25" ) which makes him about 6'1.25" minimum in the pic im about to show, Downey is a clean 3" less ( and the worrying thing is that Downey is standing slightly ahead of Howard but we will negate this as his legs are slightly wider apart ) so 6'1.25" - 3 " = 5'10.25" . So in these silver sneakered elevator shoes, Downey is just a shade over 5'10". they prolly have 1" on the outside and 1"-1.25" on the inside. That means roughly the biggest Downey can get in these shoes is just over 5'10" which I belive is what Glenn coined him at ( Glenn? ) So once again, Downey in Lifts cant even match 5'11" !!! lol here is the pic : Click Here
So what do we know, Downey in lifts cannot look around 5'11" and just over 5'10" seems to be the biggest he can reach. Whenever the guy is liftless, he has the appearence of someone in the 5'7"-5'8" brackett ( just talking appearence, the smallest he is will be 5'8" ) He never appears in the 5'6" - 5'7" Brackett and rarelly appears in the 5'8" - 5'9" brackett when not in his lifts or elevator shoes ( i tend to mean both when i say "lifts" but I know theyre different )
I know I always eventually tie it in with Stallone but Downey regularly wears similar and sometimes worse elevator shoes than Stallone and still struggles to get to that 5'11" mark, whereas Stallone not only OWNS 5'11" but also 6'0" and even 6'1" sometimes !!
Downey however, cannot, no matter how hard he tries, hide what he is ..........a GENUINE 5'8" man.

Editor Rob if the shot wasn't cropped then the camera - which I think it is - sits slightly below his eyelevel. How much height is gained depends on how far it is away.
Annoyed said on 8/Jan/09
Tellem, i Robert Downey Jrwas a wee bit closer to the camera the same thing would apply, however he is right up against the wall chart , the only thing affecting the perception is that the camera is lower than the tip of his head but the most he would gain is a max of 1/4 inch. We did a study on the mugshot and concluded that he was a shade under 5'8" when this was taken midday but we cant factor how long he may have been awake before it was taken. But yeah, the lowest he can be is 5'7.75" when this pic was taken . ( barefoot of course, remember, he is in 1" prison issue shoes )

Their ankle position was about the same so Sly is 5-10ish evening and Downey Jr. is 5-8ish evening.
Sly is 5-10.5, 5-10.75 in the morning most likely and Downey Jr. is about 5-8.5 in the morning. Downey barefoot is likely just a hair taller than Glenn.

yes Eck, we already did a very very thorough piece on that Mugshot right down to almost the millimeter. he was a few millimeters under 5'8" when barefoot on that day.
Even to the naked eye = 5'9" - 1" = 5'8"
Someone should put this Mugshot pic on the Stallone page with a couple of pics of Downey and Stallone !!! We know Downey is at least 5'8" at any time so Stallone MUST be around 5'10" minimum !!!

Put it this way Rising, the least Stallone has EVER had on Downey in ANY pic or V.T is 2" !! and that is THE LEAST !!! and have you noticed, in all but one pic maybe, downey actually usually has posture advantage ! I think it is Sly being comfortable that he easilly beats downey ! I believe Downey flat 5'8" evening and Stallone flat 5'10" evening ( ok, for the sake of appeasement ill accept maybe 5'9.5" evening and 5'10.5" morning ) but personally, I think im right and so does my freind Esam who stood face to face with both men barefoot at London Heathrow and called Downey "around your height" ( im 5'7.5" evening ) and Stallone " not short , about 5'10" " He alludes that Stallone is prolly 5'10" max and I accept this as his opinion and is more valid than my on having stood with him dead in the eye barefoot whereas I havenever had the luxury. The irony is people say " awe Downey looks 5'9" ! " yet "Stallone looks 5'8" ! " when in fact, any picture of the two, and a little common sense, show it to be completely wrong.
Downey 5'8" evening = Stallone 5'10" evening .

Put two lift lovers together and it is love at first sight in the accurate height department. Dead on 5' 8" like his mug shot. He uses great cinematographers in his films to make him taller. He's dead to rights in public hence the elevator sneakers which illicit laughter from the gallery.

Click Here At the one minute mark he stands next to Aussie tv presenter Rove McManus who's listed as 5'7 1/2 here (probably generous). Downey looks the same - maybe half an inch more at the very most if he can straighten up anymore. So 5'8" at the most for Downey I reckon

I agree leonari. Pitt is among the best lift wearers I've seen. I bet a lot of people think he's every bit of 5-11, 6-0 or even 6-1 outside of this site.
I think Robert claims 5-9 so all he'd have to is get about 2 inches over his barefoot height and hide them well. Nobody would even question that 5-9 claim if he did that.

Good post Leung, that's very interesting. That's why it makes sense that Sly's biggest shoes/lifts only give him about 3" because the forefoot is always thinner.
Downey's shoes in that recent post seem closer to platform shoes than to normal elevator shoes.

I just want to clarify that lifts are shoes with hidden lift inside but they have a relatively normal external heel size. Therefore a lot of the terrible chunky footwear that Downey Jr wears I would not consider lifts, for example a recent photo posted by RisingForce shows Downey Jr wearing man-heels or possibly women

exactly ive been saying it for ages, I mean my elevator shoe study seemed to go by almost unnoticed on the Stallone page. I showed that it takes the biggest and ugliest shoes on earth just to get 2" of ACTUAL gain.
The ammount of people who think Downey is 5'9" and TALLER is quite strange, justs hows, hollywood on-screen trickery works. But those pics with Reeves, My mugshot study, the dozens of pics ive posted and especially my pics of him with Kilmer show the limitations of how tall someone around 5'8" can look. The biggest I myself have ever seen Downey achieve is about 5'10" but can LOOK 5'11" ish but thats in films. Pics of Downey in lifts with Favreu show the truth aswell, and Favreu is a flat 6'0" Yet downey struggles to come within range of Favreu , Stallone REGULARLY matches up and gives the impression of matching 6'0" and 6'1" guys.
People think Downey is taller because he is a leading man etc and supposed to be a heart throb, people think Sly is shorter cause he is an action star and the expect a strong 6'0" MINIMUM in action stars.

Yeah, there's a lesson to everyone. Elevator shoes can only do so much. They can't make a 5'8" guy 6'1".

The first photo is a gem. Downey Jr is trying so hard to stand tall that it looks weird, and even with his chunky man heels and being closer to the camera giving him the advantage of the angle, still he is not even close to Keanu. Imagine Keanu

Yeah which proves what we've said, that even with a big posture advantage and huge elevator shoes a 5-8ish man can only look so tall. Downey has both of those things and he can barely pass for a 5-10 guy there, if that.

Wow those shoes from the first Downey/Reeves picture are just plain embarrassing. Who would wear those?! He does look around 5'11.5 - 6'0 next to Reeves considering Keanu is at least 6'2 in shoes, I see 2 inch max difference, not 3(don't get fooled by their hair). In the second and third pictures he looks 5'8.

Exactly Annoyed and 5'10" midday/evening for Sly means he probably is aorund his 5'10.5"/5'10.75" claim when he wakes up. There is a noticeable difference between the two.
I wonder what Downey claims for his height these days. He admitted to wearing lifts in 2005.

great pics with Downey and Reeves, difference is immense there. I think Reeves could be a legit 6'1" as if you look at my pics of Downey and Kilmer he holds up slightly better. My own friend who works in London Heathrow has seen both Downey and Stallone BAREFOOT and standing right next to them. He pegged Downey at around 5'8" and Stallone at around 5'10" . If anyone knows anyone who works at London Heathrow or anyone works thre themselves, my friends name is Esam Y ( wont give away his full name ) and he works on the security gates. so ask him or anyone who knows him to ask. All the evidence suggests Stallone is at least 2" taller than Downey, I saw them on E Channel and the difference was around 2 inches, the pics of them from that Basketball game are posted here, and my friend said 5'8" for Downey and 5'10" for Stallone having seen both barefoot !!!!! It adds up, Downey struggles to even match never mind overcome Gwyneth Paltrow in heels when she is standing at 6'0" ( 5'9" plus high heels ) yet Stallone easilly matches up to 5'11" - 6'0.5" on many many occasions. The tallest Downey has ever looked is a weak 5'11" but more often 5'10" whereas the tallest Stallone has ever looked is a good 6'1".
lets say we go all out MAX lifts possible and use my own estimates as a rough benchmark :
Downey = 5'8" + 3" = 5'11"
Stallone = 5'10" + 3" = 6'1"
and in easier to deal with, more commom 2" lifts ( 1 inch external, 1 inch hidden ).
Downey jr = 5'8" + 2" = 5'10"
Stallone = 5'10" + 2" = 6'0"
but this would just be using my Barefoot Midday estimates for both which is a strong 5'8" for Downey and a strong 5'10" for Stallone.

Thanks Glenn.
Another example is how with "the effect" and elevator shoes Downey measured up about the same to 5-11 Leno the same as Sly did to 6-1.5/6-2 Letterman.
Anyone who thinks Sly and Downey are about the same height are delusional.

Downey next to Keanu Reeves.

When you consider the posture difference Reeves is still atleast 3 inches taller
Downey in ridiculous shoes

Reeves wore the same shoes that night that he wore in the lower pictures
Downey without his lifts is nearly 5 inches shorter than 6-1 Keanu Reeves.

As LLeung and Glenn have pointed out Downey is the perfect example of why Sly isn't around 5'8".
Look at the first 2 pictures, you see Downey in monster shoes and then him forcing his posture as much as possible while 6-1 Reeves is slouching a lot. Sly in his monster shoes with the effect looks nearly as close to 6-5ish Dolph Lundgren's height as Downey does to Reeves height.
It really wouldn't surprise me if Sly had almost 3 inches on Downey. Those 2 are not of similar height, that I'd bet anything on.

Downey has suffered mental health problems. Not being bigoted but it usually affects men that fall slightly below average, but not utterly short. Downey at 5ft8 is slightly below avg. Very short men (-5ft6) develop coping strategies, yet these men just under average, in theory, take longer to develop coping strategies as the "short" comments aren't as frequent as what the utterly short man get. Something I read in psychology books. Put it like this - if an artist creates a painting and nobody makes bad comments, then one or two critics say it's crap, it plays on the mind more then it would if everyone were to say it's crap. Do you get my drift?

Thank you Annoyed. Clearly Downey is 5-8ish midday and about 5-8.5 in the morning and Sly is two inches taller. Do the math Brad.
Excellent work on Downey though Annoyed, it seems we've pretty much confirmed his barefoot height even to the time of day! Glenn's estimate of 5-8, 5-8.5 also confirms this.
Going by morning height- Glenn is 5-8 barefoot, about 5-9 in normal shoes
Downey is 5-8.5 barefoot, about 5-11.5 in 3 inch elevator shoes
That fits the difference in the picture.

as far as I am aware he has often joked about being shorter than 5'9" Gwyneth Paltrow , although I have read listings of 5'7" to 5'10" with, like Rising said, 5'8" and 5'9" being the most common and with 5'7" coming up more than 5'10". My original estimate for Downey was actually 5'10" funnily enough but when I saw Natural Born Killers, Chaplin and Only You I realised he was a really short guy. Looks around 5'10" - 5'11" in Iron Man but his frame is pretty stout and stocky which is more consistent with a shorter man. never 5'9" and never 5'7" and MOST DEFINETLY never 5'10" !! see my comment and study of the mugshot on 13/Nov/08 to see the truth. Also Stallone is a good 2" taller than Downey in any reality and to suggest otherwise is a bit strange....

once claimed 5'10
When? I've never heard him claim a height. I see him listed at everything from 5-7 to 5-10 with 5-8 and 5-9 coming up the most.
Complex, they most likely had him stand on a box or walk on boards in Iron Man. At the premiere pictures he was in lifts and shorter than Paltrow was in heels.

What's wierd about Downey in Ironman, he seemed very close in height to bridges and a little over paltrow in heels, now i'm very positive he wore lifts but I mean really now, bridges 6'1 barefoot, over in shoes and at some parts only seems 1-1.5 inch difference, I do believe Downey isn't over 5'8 but man, he must of been packin' huge elevators in that movie, that similiar of pitt's monsters..
How do these stars walk??

It is clinically insane to suggest Sly and Downey are the same height. Downey's posture was better than Sly's in the picture I posted! What are you talking about with "the effect?" It only applies when Sly's posrture is better than the guy he is posing with!! Their ankle position was about the same two.
Sly is atleast 2 inches taller than Downey.
Glenn, Brad ignores anything that doesn't fit what he says. Even though it can be proven you didn't have height enhancing shoes, Brad ignores it. Who knows? He may say you use "movie magic" in your pictures! "Movie magic", "Stealth customs", he'll come up with something. Lord knows, he probably has a lot of time on his hands to come up with something.

Brad then how is it Sly is only a half inch taller than Downey when Sly had a clear 2" height advantage minimum on Downey at the NBA Finals game this year? Their ankle position was about even too.
To me it seems that out of bed Sly is 5'10.5"/5'10.75", more like 5'10" by evening
Downey is 5'8.5" out of bed and 5'8"/5'7.75" by evening.
If Sly is 5'8.5" then Robert is 5'6.5"

Downey 2" shorter than Sly.

Downey has military posture, Sly has casual posture.
There is NOT only a half inch difference between the two.
And shut up already about the "Portmans". So Glenn wore 1.75"-2" boots in ONE picture that he didn't even post here. Big deal, a lot of people wear boots. Get over it.

Rising: Keep your composure cause your arguments speak for itself my friend!! You have provided the most proof on Stallone (beside Glenn) with your picture evidence and you back it up with logic. Brad and Tellem are the two guys on this site who live in denial. I really hope it's only on this site cause after all it doesn't matter. In real life this behavior is very harmful...mostly to themselves.

And Tellem, you are probably viewing Rising as being too stubborn, but your both entitled to your opinion..........just take it to the Stallone board :P :P.
we have Downey at 5'8.5" morning and 5'8" evening.
maybe if we concentrate on the evidence gathering a piece will come we can analyse properly but in the meantime, lets all calm down .

Try speaking English next time Tellem. There are other pictures of him in barefeet, slippers, sandals ect. that suggest he IS what he claims. I'm about 5'8" myself so I obviously wouldn't be less of a fan if Sly was around my height. However I can't see him being my height for numerous reasons.
I'm done arguing with you, it's like talking to a 3 year old(with worse grammar).

How is that movie scene a joke? You can see their entire bodies, their footwear ect. The posture is MUCH better to judge in the slippers picture with Carl Weather's than in either of those 2 especially the beach picture. The slippers picture is the best Sly/Carl Weathers picture. Unlike those 2 pictures neither is closer to the camera in the slippers picture.
You use some logic. Your own "logic" doesn't always back up your argument so you have to be selective with it.
it does always back up...u just can't see it because your a fan boy of stallone...i'm not a fan of his but i don't despise him either. i like some of his movies, especially copland. but when theres pics of him and his wife BAREFOOT that tells something that hes not close to his 5'10 billing.

Then you should be saying Sly is 5'10.75" because there are full body shots of him in slippers next to Carl Weathers.
lol no...theres full body shots of him and his ex wife on the beach/and full body shots with him, the rocky cast and carl weathers being towered by weathers....use some logic my friend, it helps

I agree that Pitt is probably at the very least close to 5'11". It owuldn't surprise me if he was.
yet he was 2 or more inches shorter than 6'0 norton in full body shots so how is 5'11 possible?
Because one or 2 pictures don't confirm someones height.
if theres two full body shots, one especially w/ norton in socks and pitt in shoes it sure confirms his height

Look at the lifts he is rocking for his new movie Sherlock Holmes

The first picture you can clearly see his pants crease at the point where the lifts begin. Those are about 3-4 inches! The second picture you can clearly see the lifts

rising : Pitt is a very legit 5'10.5 guy. With decent lifts he appears an legit 6 feet and thats exactly what he shoots for. Maybe 6.05" which is an fanatstic height.

Perfectly said Leonari. There's nothing wrong with lifts or elevator shoes except if you're going to wear them and have the money atleast make sure to wear them right. Brad Pitt is a perfect exmaple, I bet most people assume he's over 6 feet. Most who don't have an interest in height atleast probably think that.
I agree that he's an inspiration as well and I'm a fan of his. It's amazing that after all of his problems he's come back and become one of the biggest stars in the world.

Burt Reynolds may have had him beat back in his day. Burt looked like he was walking on stilts at times. The difference is that Burt looked like a tall guy in lifts while Downey looks like a guy who needs a ton of help just to reach average.

Great work Annoyed. I think he have him pretty much figured out, 5'8.5" morning and about 5'8" midday. I saw 2.5" initially between Downey and Glenn too.
Can you figure out Steve McQueen? I think 5'10.5" morning and 5'10" midday.

Yep and with 2" elevator sneakers or 2.5" elevator shoes he walks around at 5'10" minimum and 5'10.5" for red carpet events. This seems consistent with most reports. e.g. in the Pic with Glenn, I would imagine he had those ugly grey/silver sneakers that pack one inch external and what looks about another 1" or 1.5" inside so he is actually about 5'10" - 5'10.5" with Glenn, But Glenn is tilting his neck forward more and Downey is leaning in over Glenn so who knows, but lets study a little bit about the pick, here is my attempt : Click Here
Now, I finally decided to put my Advanced Higher in Organic Chemistry to use and I have conducted a little study to establish exactly what he was standing at when the mugshot was taken. I took every single factor into consideration, counted a shed load of pixels ( sore eyes now ) and looked for every height related average I could find.....I then ran it all through an equation an worked out the margins for error ( phew ) and this is the study I have put together : Click Here
Now obviously it wont prove his morning height or his midday height or even his evening height but it will prove what exactly he stood at on the day the mugshot was taken with all accountable factors included.
it seems he was 3mm under 5'8" on that day at 12pm, so basically 5'8" ( look at 3 mm , it is effectively nothing ) Now I am still stubborn enough to suggest that the lowest he would normally ever hit is 5'8" and on this day, his slight drop below this was due to an unaccountable factor such as a sleepless night where he had spent the night walking around his cell or perhaps he had visited the Gym or worked out in his room after breakfast. But he did fall ever so slightly below 5'8" on that particular day.
Either way it was an interesting little study and counting pixels is perhaps the most difficult and boring thing on planet earth !!!!!! and finally, a word from our sponsors;

calm down folks, The pic was taken midday, if you phone corcoran state its a jail he was in, there is another one with a similar name but his was the alcholol and firearms one) , say your a student and your doing an assignment and your lookin for mugshot procedure and they'll tell you everything. Police file photos are taken midday before recess ( as not to infringe on the prisoners excersize and dining time ) and in prison issue shoes only. Id imagine this is because crooks dont walk the streets barefoot lol and most dress shoes and running shoes have around 1" heels.
so we know, midday in 1" prison issue shoes. Pretty much all we need to know.
ANyone can check at the following adress and contact number:
California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility
P. O. Box 7100
Corcoran, CA 93212
telephone number : (559) 992-7100
It was a good few months ago when I phoned and checked the procedure but id imagine its still available .....if your a student that is ;) anyhoo check it out.
Midday, in prison shoes..........he is 5'9" maybe 5'9.25" max.
take off the inch for shoes and he is 5'8" maybe 5'8.25" max, but his head tilt and camera tilt ( indicated by lines tailing off at the left hand side of the pic ) show he is even gaining height from the camera so if you knock around 1/4" he is standing midday at between 5'7.75" and 5'8".....But this is assuming the camera and hea tilt are lending him 0.25" which is not preoveable so deal with what we see there , this is what we KNOW
midday he is 5'8" to 5'8.25 Max in his Mugshot.
5'8.5" morning height, 5'8" evening is my own personal opinion. The evidence all backs it up, he isnt the largest guy physically so his height loss over a day wont be as much, so a half inch loss is reasonable ( I lose about 0.5" myself over the whole day ) .
But that might help, in the state of califronia, Mugshots are taken midday and in prison issue shoes ONLY . Arrest photo's are alot less conculsive ( see "Stone Cold Steve Austin" ) .

His mugshot showed him roughly 5'9"-5'9.25" in shoes, take away an inch and he's 5'8"-5'8.25". That also could have been taken late at night, in fact it probably was. He's probably 5'8.5".

He also gets listed at 5'10" a lot but he's likely over 5'8" and under 5'9". 5'8.5" sounds right. He wore big lifts in Iron Man.

Well, he is USUALLY listed as 5'9" and on-screen they make actors who are 5'8" seem a little short. But in Iron Man he doesn't look short at all, not a whole lot shorter than Jeff Bridges, either. I would say 5'9"

I saw RDJ on the Jonathan Ross show the other day, his lifts were not obvious that day but he had very long trousers which covered the top of the shoe (normal looking sneakers I think), he looked about 3 inches shorter than Ross.He seems like a nice guy and he was very sharp-witted on the show, he clearly has a lot going for him. I think he should either invest in some decent less obviously elevated shoes or just ditch the idea and go into therapy like Dustin Hoffman did. There is nothing wrong with being short.
He's not short, he's right around average and that's the problem with you and people on this website who are Obsessed With Height. If you are not tall, you are considered short. If he needed therapy it's because of people like you on this site.
Here's his mug shot which puts him at about 5'8".

My father was 6'0" or maybe a little over at his peak(now he's probably 5'10.5"). However I ended up just 5'7.75"(morning height). Sometimes having a tall father doesn't mean anything for how tall you'll end up. However my brother ended up at 6'0".
I think Downey is 5'8.5" and Cruise is 5'8".

Thanks Leonari , my freind is called Esam and we used to work together. He now lives in London where he started in an airport restaurant but now works as a airport security guy on the gates. He has met a few celebs but the only ones i care about are Stallone and Downey, i am still in shock at the Downey one, i thought he was ripping the proverbial but my pal doesnt know i use this site so thats why he never told me at the time it happened , it was only when i asked him after he mentioned he had got Iron Man and had seen the guy in it. Madness. He says he was thought he was about 5'10" before he took his shoes off then he was no taller than me ( I am 5'8" morning, 5'7.75" and then i shrink to 5'7.5" evening ) so i personally believe Downey is taller than myself and is around 5'8.5" in the morning and a flat 5'8" the rest of the time. I just know its 100% true .
My same freind also met stallone at the Airport and said he was no bigger than 5'10" and seemed a little bit shorter which is why i believe stallone is between 5'9" and 5'10" now ( this as some time over the last 2 years , i think it was for rocky balboa promotion ) as stallone would have been in his 60's obviousley when my freind met him. I also got to see Jackie Chan with my freind ( at an unrelated boxing event up here ) and i got to see Jackie Chan is no bigger than 5'9" at the moment. also leonari, what you said about genes. My dad is 5'5" ( used to be 5'6 but he is 55 now ) my mum is 5'0 flat and hasnt lost any height , I am 5'7.5" which is quite short yet my older sister is 5'7.5" also which is quite tall for a girl. My freind is 6'2" yet his mum is 5'0" and his dad is 5'6" ! strange but there ya go. I still say enviromental factors are just as important as genes.

Annoyed at ti all: I believe you .And you are right. Airports might be the only time regular folks (not celebrities) who work at the security gates can have a glimpse at a barefoot star and really give a good estimate of height. I say Robert is 5'8" flat most of the time. Strange... Tom Cruise and Robert Downey both have tall fathers (Toms 6'1" as far as i know and Downeys like 6'3" (!!) or something. When I think about it is strikes me that my father is 5'4" and I am of similar height as Tom and Robert...Oh yeah and my mother is 5'2". I doubt Toms and Roberts moms are shorter than mine...actually I think they are taller... strange how some genes don't pass over to the next generation.

On a bad day he goes a tiny tad below 5'8" ...like Cruise. But somebody should please teach him how to wear lifts. What this guy is pulling recently is ridiculous. I love the guy...one of the best actors around but if you wear lifts do it with a bit of class. Don't wear tight pants over shoes with huge lifts. It's obvious Robert!!

I know what you mean there Franky but if you scroll down and look at some of my own pics you will see the difference is a flat 4 inches. He is at Kilmers eyeline, in fact, the diference between Downey and Kilmer is almost the same as Mamun and Kilmer.

JACKPOT!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!! My freind who works at Heathrow in London ( its a very big airport )same freind who saw and met Stallone. HAD ROBERT DOWNEY JR THROUGH HIS GATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAD HIM BAREFOOT AT THE GATE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When my pal told me i thought he was ripping the piela but he is serious, apparently it happened a few months ago. I was talking to my freind on the phone and he said he had bought Iron man and he met the guy in it. I was stunned ! In british airports you have to take your shoes off and go through the wee metal detector so I was like " how tall was he !!! ?" and you'll never guess what he said!!! he said he was the same height as him ( around 5'10" ) and then he told him t place his shoes in the tub and when he took his shoes off my freind said he was TINY and no bigger than myself ( I know my freind has called this wrong because my own research has shown there is no way Downey walks around any less than 5'7.75" EVER and i am 5'7.5" in the evening.) But the point is, my freind has been around me for years before he went down to london, he still see's me a couple of times a year SO he knows where i am to him and my general size and he was like " man he is definetly no taller than you " So it must be close. Either way, thats me comfortable that this guy has an evening height of 5'8" at the max. morning height of 5'8.5 max and walks around in 2" elevator shoes. Unbeleiveable ( might apply for a job in an airport myself, imagine the celebrities youd meet, my freind meets loads and gets to stand right next to them while their barefoot !! )

I don't know why Downey is wearing lifts all of a sudden, its pretty obvious since he never really did before. Someone like Sly can get away with it with most people since he has been wearing big heeled shoes since the late 70's but Downey just looks plain ridiculous with his lifts.

Robert downey jr seems around 5'8, he really does wear big lifts and never appears over 5'10 with them. Glenn is about 5'7 .5 at this time when he met robert and robert most likely has an inch and a half footwear advantage so a 2 inch difference is what it should be

runt I only mentioned the left leg because only their left legs are in line with eachother. In the picture Downey's left leg is pretty much in line with Sly's two legs but his right leg is not. With lifts the advantage would be in the ankle area not the knee area as Sly's knees being higher could be how he's sitting or just the fact that he has longer legs.

I agree Glenn. 5'9" is pushing it a bit. 5'8" or 5'8.5" range seems right. Interestingly enough I've never heard anyone estimate him below 5'7". Usually he's always estimated at 5'8" or listed at 5'9". Seems like a strong 5'8".

Gago, I didn't quite understand that post. First of all it seems that Downey's head reaches the 5'9"/5'9.25" mark without the hair putting him 5'8"/5'8.25" assuming he's wearing shoes. He also was probably arrested later in the day meaning he wasn't at his full height.
I doubt he was arrested in the morning when he was at his peak height. Besides I don't upgrade anyone, Glenn has met these celebrities and can confirm my estimates with his in person estimates and pictures.

I'm not trying to have a conversation with you, just expressing my opinion, and you should become a lawyer, may be Sly can hire you as his personal lawyer, lol.

runt, Sly's taller anyway so his legs will be higher if they're both in lifts. Also look at Sly and Downey's left legs, they seem about the same.
I'd say Downey is 5'8.5" and gets 3 of inches of lift to get him to about 5'11.5". That's why everyone was saying he was just a hair under 6 foot in the film Iron Man when Iron Man came out.

Thanx for the clarification but I have one more question. Your first link on OCT 16 shows Sly and Robert sitting side by side. I see no sitting height advantage for Sly. His legs are higher indicating an advantage from knee to foot. Ordinarily, wouldn't you chaulk that up to bigger lifts?

Your first OCT 16 link shows Sly and Robert sitting side by side. It appears to me that they have equal sitting heights. It also appears that Sly's knees are slightly higher than Robert's. Ordinarily, wouldn't one assume from those two facts that Sly is wearing the bigger lifts? In fact, if their shoes weren't shown, I would've assumed Sly was wearing lifts and Robert wasn't because of their equal sitting heights versus Sly's standing advantage.

I think Sly has about 1.5" on Downey at the most. Doesn't the average man have 3" between his eyes and his mouth? If that's the case and Downey's eyes are half way between Sly's eyes and Sly's mouth, it's only 1.5"
Thank you for reminding me of the 3" between mouth and eyes average. I drew a line at the top of Sly and Robert's heads and copied the distance in between and pasted it between their mouth and eyes. The result was smaller than that but the 2 of those was bigger by quite a bit meaning the height difference was about 2", maybe a bit more going by that.

Exactly Glenn, it seems obvious to me. I posted pictures of Sly and Carl Weathers together with Sly in slippers and Carl in Nike shoes. You could see Sly's ankles yet some people insisted he had a footwear advantage over Carl's Nike's! The scene is from Rocky 3 and Sly strangely looks atleast 5-11 despite his probable footwear disadvantage.
Your estimates usually seem to be 100% and I agree with your 5'10.75" Sly estimate and 5'8"-5'9" Downey estimate.

Sly still had 2 inches on Downey. I wouldn't be surprised if Downey had bigger lifts in his shoes than Sly too and Downey's shoes seem to give atleast as much height as Sly's not factoring in lifts.
That's why this Sly at 5'7" or 5'8" stuff doesn't make sense.

They seem about the same height, in fact Robert seems even taller in the first picture but that's just posture. Downey has Sly type posture and Leno is hunched over a bit. So in reality Jay is probably half an inch or an inch taller.
Here are his shoes
Click Here
Those shoes seem to give maybe 1.5" to me and he probably has an additional 1 inch lift in there. So he's reaching a strong 5'11" in shoes that probably give 2.5", I think 5'8.5" fits.
I give him 5'8.5" and 5'11" or 5'11.5" in his elevator shoes. If he wasn't leaning he'd have about 2.5" on Glenn and Glenn is probably 5'9" in shoes.
Here's Downey with Leno who is about 5'11" so 6 ft in shoes

Didn't look short at all in Iron MAn. Major lifts,huh ??? I think 5'9 is more accurate,though. I also think its quite funny how his dad is 6'3 nad he isn't even over 6'. Was his mom short ?

I feel sorry for him in those. I wish I could see him trying to walk the carpet like hot coals. 4" easy. Hey Robert, yer short, don't waste our time.

The scary thing about this picture Click Here is that you can see that his heel is bulging out above the lip bit on the right shoe. On the left one you can see his heel is above the leather and actually in the part of the shoe that is made of that stretchy stuff. I know rob thinks 3" is max lifts can give, but these things must give closer to 4, he appears to be standing on tip toes on a platform that is already at least an inch off the ground. These have to be the craziest elevator shoes yet!

I think this is where me and RisingForce come close to agreeing. To me Downey could be 5'8.5" MAX in the morning. Although seeing the pics with him and Tom Cruise makes me think they are the same height, so he could be as low as 172cm.

He looked much taller than usual next to Tommy Lee Jones in US Marshals. Maybe a 3" difference between them. I think he's 5'8.5" and can appear around 5'11" in big lifts.

heys taller then 5'8 cause in ironman hes taller the gwenth nd on this site shes listed as 5'9
That's because he wore massive lifts and elevator shoes in that film. Barefoot I doubt he's any more than 5'8.5".

I'm 5'7.75" in the morning, I shrink to 5'7.25" by midday and I'm 5'7" or a hair under in the night.
Yes Mel is tricky, he could be anywhere from 5'8" to 5'10" and I wouldn't be surprised at all.

good pics there, most are poor angles and clearly in lifts as you allude to, but the one with mel gibson is very very interesting, how is that possible, throughout the whole film of Air America Mel is clearly taller yet that pic has rdj taller, very very suspect. Mel has always been a tricky one.
I think he is at LEAST 5'8.5" in the morning, i myself lose an inch over the course of the day but i usually will lose around 1/2 an inch, my morning height is 5'8" and i usually shrink to 5'7.5" with 5'7.75" my overall average for the day.

Here are some good pictures.
Downey Jr. and Leno
Click Here
Click Here
Click Here
Downey is coming out the same height or maybe a hair taller but he has atleast an inch advantage as far as posture. Leno is slouching and Downey is standing as straight as possible. So in reality Leno probably would measure about a half inch or an inch taller there.
Here are his shoes.
Click Here
Those are big basketball shoes that add 1.25" or 1.5"(I know this because I wear big basketball shoes for a little extra height). Then maybe he's getting an extra inch in lifts. So if Leno is 6'0" in shoes then Downey is about 5'11" or 5'11.5" in those. That puts him at worst at 5'8.5" compared to Leno when you factor in his shoes.
Robert and 5'8"(morning height) Glenn.
Click Here
Robert has about 3" on Glenn when you factor in that he's leaning and with his 3 inch lifts he probably has 1.5 a 2 inch advantage so once again then puts him at around 5'8.5".
The mugshot is very good but not good enough to settle the dabate of half an inch because we don't know what time it was taken and exactly where Downey's head ends(because of his big hair). It did prove though that he was at the very least in the 5'8" range.
Here's Downey and Matt Damon(given 5'10" on this site)
Click Here
Damon seems 1.5" taller but he does have thicker shoes however many people estimate Damon shorter at 5'8"-5'9".
Here Downey looks taller than Mel Gibson(listed 5'9.5" here)
Click Here
I stick to my 5'8.5" morning height estimate, it makes sense. It also is the same as the listing here since Rob doesn't go by morning heights.

lol lol it is just a bit of harmless fun shark, its good to look at evidence and have debate, its healthy. I am a Boxer, I study Science and i am a member of a UK Political party so i guess debate and confrontaion and dealing with data s a kind of weird character trait i possess. And we do agree on a 5'8" range with 5'8.5" morning height i believe , but you get these Robert Downey Jr is 5'9" - 5'10" dudes, of which i used to be one ( lol ) and its just about getting to the bottom of it, shouldnt really be on a height website then Shark.

Also i mentioned in a previous post how Robert Downey Jr appeared tiny when barefoot next to a barefoot Marissa Tomei in "Only You" ( i own this and DO NOT LAUGH ! I AM HETERO !) Well it seems this has also arisen in the marissa tomei page, she is listed at 5'4" here but i have always read 5'6" for her and she was only around 2-2.5 inches shorter when both were face to face in full body shot and barefoot ! so id say she is actually closer to 5'6".anyway here is a comment made by anonymous taken from the Marissa Tomei page:

I just watched "Only you" and she was next to Robert Downey Jr. in bare feet and didn't seem to be more than 2 inches shorter than him. Looked more like 5'6" to me. Is Robert Downey shorter than the 5'8" I thought he was or is she taller??

In addition, she was the same height as Bonnie Hunt through the whole movie, flat footed. I really think she must be taller or Bonnie Hunt and Robert Downey are shorter. Look in to it, I'll try to find stills.
anonymous says on 24/Jan/07
still think she is around 5'6, sorry glenn. watched "untamed heart" on tv recently, and she isn't much shorter than christian slater, who's 5'8. watch it, if you don't agree.
Click Here now in this pic she is wearing 1 inch ladies dress shoes and he is wearing 1 inch standard dress shoes , i couldnt find any pics of the barefoot scene, it occurs immediately after this, they retreat back to the hotel room and u see both lined up barefoot and the difference is pretty much the exat same, if u take away their puffy hair, its somewhere around 2 inches and 2.5 inches at the most. i think she is taller than 5'4" and must be at least 5'5.5" . Assuming she is 5'5.5 to 5'6" this, yet again, backs up the 5 foot 8 height claim ( also he makes light out of the fact he is shorter than gwyneth paltrow quite alot so whatever she is, we know he is shorter than )

Go to Click Here and search for Robert Downey Jr. Someone should hug the poor guy and tell him that there is nothing bad being 5ft8. He used to look short all the time in the past, nowadays he is doing all the Stallone tricks to look 5ft10. His lifts are so obvious, why not just wear New Rock boots with huge heels(for instance Billy Idol is wearing them quite often)LOL

Kilmer is 6'0" and Downey admitted to wearing lifts so he wouldn't look tiny compared to Val Kilmer.
Downey is 5'8.5" and he can appear in the 5'10"-5'11" range with big lifts.
This is what Mr. R posted a few years ago
Mr. R says on 31/Oct/05
In this month's In Style magazine, Downey notes that he sometimes keeps some of the clothes from his movies including a pair of "Nike Shocks with lifts" so that he would not appear "fifteen inches shorter" than co-star Val Kilmer in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang!

Noway RDJ is that short. Look at him in Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. He is only about 2 inches shorter than Val Kilmer who is prob about 6'0 - 6'1. This would put Downey at 5'10-5'11. Noway is he the same height as Cruise which alot of people are suggesting.

watching british hype for tropic thunder, shots from a premier of tom cruise, downey,blakc and mcconaghey and tbh there is absolutely nothing in it between downey and cruise and both looked to have suspicious footwear ( downey appears roughly an inch taller than ben stiller in sneakers yet at the premier had 2 - 3 inches on him and cruise was the same, strange )
I still think 5'7.5" for cruise and 5'8"/5'8.5" for Downey , 5'9" for either is ridiculous and i think 5'7" for either isnt right either although cruise would be the more likelly out the two to hit 5'7" ( i doubt it though )
Leung your half right, but tbh, i never saw Downey ever wear smaler lifts, in fact if u look at some of my pictures below he is seldom in any lifts away from premiers also any of his old movies he looks very short, id say defo not lifted ( in Only You he looks tiny with Marissa Tomei when he is barefoot)
5'8" approx Downey and 5'7.5" approx for Cruise

Tom Cruise also has good looking custom made shoes with lifts. Don't really know why Sly And Robert don't spend bit more to their lifts. Actually I've noticed that quite a few taller guys (6'+) wear boots and shoes with really thick heels to appear taller, wonder why...

True the footwear Downey Jr is wearing these days are not discreet at all. I reckon he got a taste of small lifts then he got addicted to them (we know he has an addictive personality) and then started testing the boundaries of how high he could go, and that

A lot of people don't know how to wear them though. Sly hasn't exactly hid the fact that he wears them well either. Brad Pitt has worn some huge ugly shoes in recent years as well although at times he's hid the fact that he wears lifts very well. Mel Gibson is a great example of how to wear lifts, you wouldn't even notice he wears them if you weren't looking for it.
Downey is also one of the biggest movie stars in the world again after Iron Maiden and he's now known for playing a superhero. Maybe he doesn't like appearing short or average because he knows people expect him to b 5'10" or 5'11".

ridiculos especially cause he has no clue how to wear lifts. The purpose is to make it undetectable. Mr. Downey hasn't grasp that concept...His father is huge. Maybe thats why he has a problem with his height.

He is getting so ridiculous with the lifts. I mean he isn't that short. For instance Ben Stiller seems to be fine with his height at least he isn't wearing lifts all the time.

Yeah Killing Joke, he wears huge shoes with lifts now. I'd guess he's getting close to 3" over his barefoot height at times.
