Canson said on 13/Jun/17
Dane said it well. He didn't tower in the movie and 6'5" towers almost anyone noticeably if it's a proper 6'5". Don't forget a 5'8 guy could be 5'7.75 or 5'7.5 even the former would make Tim Robbins appear 6'5 as that half inch could go in either persons favor. He also claimed 6'4.5 which is closer to the truth. He isn't as tall as Howard stern is and stern is maybe 6'5.25 peak 6'5 solid today
Adam said on 10/Jun/17
Jesus Christ I didn't realise he was this big, must be why he doesn't get starring roles, apart from Shawshank
jervis said on 5/Jun/17
He looked a foot taller than 5ft8 ish Paul Newman in the hudsucker proxy,an easy 6ft5.9 inch difference is clear or maybe a bit more.
Canson said on 3/Jun/17
His claim of 6'4 1/2 looks more accurate. People have no idea how tall that actually is in real life. Bobby3342 said it best 6'4.5 barefoot will get you guessed 6'6" all day. I know being that height barefoot
BlueChord said on 28/May/17
I think he was solid 195cm in his prime and 193-194cm now :)
jervis said on 28/May/17
In Bob Roberts he has 4 inches on Alan Rickman,who was 6ft1.
jervis said on 27/May/17
He was a clear 3 inches taller than 6ft2 to 6ft2.5 Morgan Freeman, making him 6ft5 inches tall.
MJKoP said on 22/May/17
LOL, Danimal thinks Robbins is 6'7", but Tom Cruise is under 5'7". Watch War of the Worlds...to think there is more than a full FOOT difference of height between them is insane. I'm sure if he replies to this he'll go with the generic lifts, boxes, camera angles, ditches, levitation, or whatever other tired excuse. ;D
dane said on 15/May/17
im not disputing his height, but he sure dont look 6'5, he didnt really tower over anyone in shawshank, and 6'5 is way above average height.
Sean95 said on 13/May/17
Thought he looked at least a solid 6'5 in The Shawshank Redemption, looked 3 inches taller than Morgan Freeman back then

He is very tall. Around 195cm sure.
Peak 196cm
Now 194/195 cm
Barefoot of course
Canson said on 29/Mar/17
@Shiva: 6'5 st his lowest wouldn't make him 6'6" out of bed prob 6'5.75. But he's claimed 6'4.5 as well. Stern I believe prime was a hair over 6'5. So yes he was 6'6" out of bed I believe maybe 6'5.25 at his lowest maybe even 6'5 3/8 or 1/2
shiva 181 cms said on 29/Mar/17
@canson ,stern could have been 6'5.5 at his prime and Tim Robbins a flat 6'5, Robbins would have been easily 6'6 out of bed
jervis said on 17/Mar/17
The pic with Stern proves nothing, you can't see the ground level or footwear.Robbins was a clear 6ft5 in Shawshank way taller than the rest of the Cast.
jervis said on 15/Mar/17
He looks an easy 4 inches taller than Graig Ferguson, who was as tall, if not a little bit taller than Morgan Freeman.
Canson said on 9/Mar/17
@Arch: not sure about that. He said before he was 6'4.5. That'd make him 6'5.25 out of bed. He was never as tall as stern
Arch Stanton said on 7/Mar/17
6'5 out of bed?? Peak he'd have been very close to 6'6 out of bed.
Canson said on 5/Mar/17
@Guanzo: That's too low for him but he isn't 6'5. I think prime his 6'4.5 is legit and today maybe 6'4.25. He was always good for 6'5" out of bed

when have he ever looked shorter than strong 195 guy?. dont get it. back when he did shawshank redemprion he llooked huge. i think he is the one who have 1/4 inch on vince vaughn back in the 90´s. today he may be 195. havent seen him in anything recently. but peak he made clancy brown look little over 6 foot 2

to me this guy never looks shorter than 195,5 and often 196. as an actor he claims less to be given moore jobs.he is the only guy that made peak morgan freeman look only 188. and made kevin costner look small. i think he should have full 6 foot 5 .
Jamie said on 4/Jan/17
I think he should have a peak height as 6ft5.25
movieguy said on 1/Jan/17
Looked a lot taller than Clancy Brown in Shawshank redemption. Brown is about 6'3'' I understand. Difficult one to call on Robbins. He might be more than 6'5'', looked shorter than Howard Stern but was this on an even surface. Same thing with shot with 6'7'' James Cromwell.
Canson said on 29/Dec/16
I don't see 3 inches between Robbins and Freeman. And if it really were who is to say that it's not Freeman as 6'1.75 or .5 and Robbins at 6'4.5? And no im not downgrading freeman because I know that's the next propaganda I'm gonna hear. Instead I'm asking why people always have to upgrade someone in order to make (for example) freeman a certain height just to make the math work? That to me is no different than someone downgrading another person. Either way you're undermining a claim whether it's up or down. Going off what Robbins claimed out of his own mouth when he said he's 6'4.5 and how he looks next to taller actors like Howard Stern (who by all reliable accounts) is a legit 6'5-6'5.25 no more (see Bobby3342's post as well as the poster who mentioned he met him at Dirty Beer). I think Robbins is a guy who would measure 6'5.25 out of bed (196.2cm) and 6'4.5 at his lowest prime (194.3). And wouldn't rule out based on his age, some shrinkage like 170cm fan mentioned below.
Canson said on 27/Dec/16
Yes Jervis unfortunately it's the revolving circle on this site. it's always so in so has to be (insert) because the other person has to be (insert). It's a bunch of comparing when each person can be claiming shoe heights. Usually the net result is we must make the other person taller to accommodate the first one. Robbins has claimed 6'4.5 before and likely is his lowest height and also 6'5". But yes He's a legit 196+ out of bed so rounded he'd be 6'5". Stern is taller than him even if ground isn't level. I'd believe rob's estimate for Stern and at most 195cm (Rob's estimate for Robbins). I bet if freeman claimed 6'3" Robbins by deduction would be 6'6" it's how it always works. By the way freeman is 6'1.75 listed here.
170cm fan of Andy Dufresene said on 26/Dec/16
Could he be heading towards 6'4 in a few years?
jervis said on 25/Dec/16
what height do yot think Morgan Freeman was Canson?Robbins had an easy 3 on him, and Freeman was a strong 6ft2, I d'ont think anybody doubts that here,thats why I think he was 6ft5.
Aza said on 23/Dec/16
He looked taller than Fry in The Player so yes this is a great listing.
tylort said on 23/Dec/16
The Howard Stern photo was obviously not on the same level of ground.
Canson said on 21/Dec/16
Sorry but he isn't even a full 6'5. Still a good .5"- 2cm shorter than Howard stern. He's 6'4.5 at his lowest. All because these other celebs bill themselves a certain way do people inflate him to accommodate

"Tim Robbins' Peak Height was 6ft 4 7/8th in (195.3 cm)"
I doubt he was under 195cm in his prime, but I don't think he was as tall as a full 6ft5.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Nov/16
Cusack is definitely a tall guy. Never looks less than 6ft2 can pass for 6ft3. But Robbins would make just about everyone look noticeably shorter.

Towered over Cusack in "High Fidelity" and Cusack is supposed to be really tall.

Do you think Tim looks at least 6'4.5 or could he be a little less today cause he is pushing 58 now?
Editor Rob
he might have lost a small fraction, although can still look nearly 6ft 5.
shiva 181 cms said on 23/Sep/16
He claimed 6'4.5 becoz he may have measured 6'4.75 and rounded down he looked 6'5 in his prime he could have got mistaken for 6'6+ guy granted his frame even in the above pic it looks like, now more 6'4.5
Canson said on 5/Sep/16
He's not as tall as Howard Stern who's a legit 6'5 guy
Arch stanton said on 22/Aug/16
His hairstyle could influence his height I think. In Jacob's Ladder and Mystic River with a longer flatter style he looks shorter than he did in films where his hair was high like Bob Roberts and the Player.
Canson said on 21/Aug/16
I'd go a 6'4.5 at his lowest in his peak. That's the height he claimed before. Maybe today he's 6'4.25 at his lowest.
Mike said on 20/Aug/16
Tom Robbins peak: 6ft 5, today 6ft 4.5

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Aug/16
He could be more like 6ft4½ on the nose today. But 6ft5 peak is very possible
Canson said on 12/Aug/16
@The Man: wouldn't surprise me if both are really under 6'5. Both look like they could be somewhere between 194-195cm in their primes (I say prime for Robbins because he's older and may have lost a fraction).
shiva 181 cms said on 9/Aug/16
Tim robbins is 6'4.75 in his peak at times he may look a solid 6'5 because of his frame posture and he doesn't bend over like for example liam neeson today he migjt be 6'4.5 like he claimed
Tim robbins height (6'4.75) peak ( 6'4.5) current
The Man said on 7/Aug/16
Robbins gets listed as 195cm and Manganiello gets listed as 196cm, when it should be the opposite.
Canson said on 20/Jul/16
@JamesB: if not hydrated and weightlifting it's possible def. I measure exactly 194-194.1 6'4.375-.4 at a normal low but I've also seen as Low as almost right at 6'4 once or twice with a combination lifting and being on my feet late at night for long periods and a normal low with just lifting with less hydration can be more around 6'4 1/4 or slightly over. Robins easily would dro too
James B said on 16/Jul/16
Rob would a 6'4.75 guy measure 6'4.5 very late at night like 2 in the morning?
Editor Rob
anyone has potential to drop under their listing if they measure an absolute low or a very late at night or straight after a 2 hour session of sport.
Canson said on 9/Jul/16
@Bobby3342: the more I look at him the diff with Howard stern looks more like 2cm than 4 to me. I can see him as maybe a very strong 193 today (6'4.25) and Stern as 6'5 like you have him. Robbins may have been around 6'4 1/2 prime but def can't see 6'5 barefoot. Only in shoes and with those above he's prob 1.25 to put him near 197 in shoes
Canson said on 8/Jul/16
Lillo Thomas said it perfectly below. The difference between 6'4.5 and 6'5 cannot be seen and unless u have two people equal who u are verifiably sure of then you can't tell. I can't always tell if someone is only 1/2" taller than me esp if footwear differs and I often get billed as 6'5". But I can definitely see a peak 196cm+ out of bed for Tim Robbins and what he initially claimed 6'4 1/2" as his aggregate. I think he just rounded up to 6'5 like most ppl. May have lost a small small fraction in his later years but still at least a solid 6'4" today
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Jul/16
Stern looks to be edging Robbins. He's more a solid 6ft5 guy
Scott said on 6/Jul/16
A solid 6' 5". 3 full inches taller than Morgan Freeman in Shawshank Redemption
Canson said on 3/Jul/16
In the pictures with Howard Stern, Tim Robbins looks about an inch shorter. Possible Stern peak height was 6'5.25-.5 (today flat 6'5") which would make Robbins what he claimed (at least peak) 6'4 1/2. Maybe he's dropped a fraction now but prob still a legit 193 cm.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Jun/16
His 6ft4½ claim is probably the only thing keeping him from a 6ft5 listing here...because he looks every bit of it in pretty much all his movies! Makes it even more comical when you see the number of guys who are barely 6ft3 who claim to be that!
Canson said on 28/May/16
@Bobby: I guess I contradicted myself because Theler does lie up from 6'5 (he is very buff as well) but outside that I don't see much
Canson said on 28/May/16
@Bobby: I agree about him being that height but I will say for guys like him or even Theler, I don't see them claiming 6'6 and 6'8. One thing I've noticed is that once someone is usually 6'5 or over (legitimately and solid enough) they usually don't lie up much outside of pro athletes. At least from what I've seen. A lot of the taller friends I have who are at their midpoint (I have a 6'5 1/2 friend who claims 6'5 as his height) they just round down. I'm actually similar I have in recent years begun to round down and just list myself as 6'4 on my docs even though I am a legit 6'4.5 in the afternoon but do drop to 1mm above 3/8. Of course always exceptions
Canson said on 26/May/16
I think when we take Moe's advice (he goes off what someone else said they were at 6'5 and inflates the other person to accommodate) then Robbins is 6'6". In the real world however he was as stated a peak 6'4.5. May still be that height but doubt he's under 6'4 flat at his age. Howard Stern is clearly taller than him and Howard is a legit classic 6'5. He isn't any taller than that
James B said on 25/May/16

Yeah Arch he does look like an enormous 200cm+ guy in that picture! But again some people don't appreciate how big 6ft5 is.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/May/16
Really Arch? I actually saw that as an instance where Costner could pull off 6ft2 if Robbins was 6ft5. I saw 3-4in between them.
Arch Stanton said on 17/May/16
Really looked at least 6'5.5 in Bull Durham, in fact he could look 6 ft 6 in that film with Costner. I don't think 6'5.5 peak is impossible. Doesn't look it today though I agree. At times though he can really look bigger than 195, see
Click Here for instance! Looks like 6 ft 8 there and similar look to Greg Davies!
Aza said on 7/May/16
Definitely thought he was taller than stephen fry in a film I can't remember many years ago. Actually agree with Arch. He needs a peak upgrade. Actually think he has lost a good inch so 195cm today is a good shout.
James B said on 3/May/16
Arch seriously 6'5.5 peak? There was a photo of Robbins with James Cromwell not that long ago where he looked shorter for sure.
Arch Stanton said on 17/Apr/16
jtm said on 14/Apr/16
that's funny Arch Stanton. there is still a post from Oct 2013 and you admit that he was 3 inches taller than freeman. you have freeman 6'2.5-6'3 peak so he actually looked closer to 6'6 if that's true
Why's that funny? I have Freeman at 6'2.5. In Shawshank Robbins looked between 2 and 3 inches taller really. In films like Bob Roberts and The Player he could really look 6'5.5. I think 6'5.5 is possble peak. Morgan Freeman could give off a 6'3 impression, in fact in Last Vegas he could look that but more a strong 6'2.
MrTBlack said on 16/Apr/16
He's over 6'5" if anything IMO but this listing works I guess.

@James: I do know how big it is (I'm that mark myself when I wake up). Robbins may very well be that today. But at peak he did look a legit 6ft5 guy

Andrea said on 3/Apr/16
Rob, granted that i do think he generally looks (or at least looked) near 6'5, do you think he might have really been just 6'4.5??? After all, people who are truly 6'4.5 are obviously still very tall and can pull off looking near 6'5! See Ibra...
Editor Rob: the argument is whether he said 6ft 4.5 rather than 5 just to make it feel less.
He could have been a guy who at his low dipped a little under, but a large chunk of the day held 6ft 5.
In the early 90s he could really look like a legit 197 guy in some films like The Player and Bob Roberts. He didn't look over 6'5 with Freeman though in Shawshank.
James B said on 10/Apr/16
Rampage I don't think you realise how big 6'4.5 range is
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Apr/16
196cm is arguable...
Canson said on 7/Apr/16
@Berta: doubt he's as tall as you are or even I. I believe my height in his prime (6'4.5) maybe. But he's a clean 6'4 now. Hes a good inch shorter than Howard Stern. Stern's a legit 6'5.
moe said on 6/Apr/16
He is absolutely 6'5. If you want to spot him, you can go to the Actors Gang in Culver City. He runs the joint and is sometimes there. He's actually taller than 6'5. There was someone else there who was 6'5 when I went there, and Tim was taller.
berta said on 6/Apr/16
this guy is ore have been when he was younger 196. He made morgan Freeman and clancy Brown look average. I Think his six foot 4 and a half claim was just to get more roles . Can never se him shorter than vince vaughn

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Mar/16
Robbins still looks in that 6ft4½-5 zone today. Maybe in a few years we'll see if he's dropped anything noticeable. But if he measured 6ft5, he'd either be honest or round down a full inch because he's uncomfortable with his height. He wouldn't round down just a fraction. His son looks like he might be a bit taller, like 6ft5½.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5/Mar/16
Or 6ft5 peak and 6ft4½ today.
James B said on 22/Feb/16
Rob perhaps give him 6'4.5 current and 6'4.75 peak?
Editor Rob
I think when someone looks to have lost half inch, that is the cutoff to maybe consider peak/current. A 1/4 inch I feel might be too small.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Feb/16
Arch, I think Hudson in his 20's-30's could look a strong 6ft5 at times but he lost a bit of height quite early. He definitely looked closer to 6ft4 flat at the end of his life. Robbins was just one of those rarities who had good posture and chose not to embellish his height when he easily could have gotten away with it. The other guys you mentioned I think could fall into that weak 6ft5(194-195cm) category because they can look 6ft4 range a lot. Other guys like Howard Stern, Ralf Moeller, Wladimir Klitschko or Nonso Anonzie who can look 6ft6...they're the strong 6ft5(196-197cm) guys
Arch Stanton said on 23/Jan/16
There's a few actors on here you could really argue this listing for, Joe Manganiello, Rock Hudson, Christopher Lee and Sterling Hayden to name a few. Unlike the others though, this guy could look a strong 6'5 in the early 90s.
movieguy said on 23/Jan/16
Robbins did a film with 6'4'' Stephen Fry and I remember him being a bit taller than Fry. I'm not sure they were standing side to side though so maybe not easy to compare. The photos that throw me are the ones of Robbins dwarfing Clint Eastwood at time of Mystic River. Either Robbins was taller than 6'5'' or 6'4'' Clint had already been hit by severe height loss. I know some argue Clint wasn't a full 6'4'' but he looked close enough when young.
Alex said on 18/Jan/16
I think barefoot is 192-193 and with shoes about 194-195, as in this photo.

Canson said on 7/Jan/16
Lol someone actually compared him to Jalen Rose in height on this page!!! Jalen is 6'6" barefoot as measured and is even shorter than Scottie Pippen.
movieguy said on 7/Jan/16
Looked a lot taller than Clancy Brown in the Shawshank Redemption. Brown says he is 6'3'' and is probably not exaggerating. As other posters have said Robbins may be taller than the 6'5'' he usually gives. I suspect he was worried about not getting parts because of his height so knocked off an inch or two. I think the people that downgrade him to below 6'5'' are definitely wrong on this one.
Canson said on 26/Dec/15
Bobby: after looking at the footwear he may be. Def isn't much taller than those guys. He has thick soles in them shoes!!!
Canson said on 25/Dec/15
So Goose based on your expertise I'll give Robbins 6'5 since you seem to be 2" off on all of your assessments.
@Bobby3342:actually may be just as tall as Barkley or MJ. He looks 6'6 in shoes.
bobby3342 said on 21/Dec/15

I posted this on this site before - dude is way way tall. He ain't no 6'5. Saw him sitting at the bar at a restaurant in Soho in about 1998'. Looked 6'7 to me and big boned. I've seen Conan too who I put at 6'5 (big guy as well) and there was a huge difference. BTW, extremely tall actors will downgrade their heights as 6'7 public ally would limit their roles/appeal.

6'4.5 - 6'4.75 and 6'5 peak. Looked minimum 6'5 in Shawshank redemption next to Morgan Freeman

Would be surprised if he was a couple inches taller than Conan but could buy him looking roughly an inch taller. At times he looks potential to be a bit shorter, height loss possible but a early, like with Stern and some other recent photos.

Tim looking at least 6'6" if not 6'7" with Craig Ferguson in 2009 (at 20:52) and YES, Craig is around 6'2". To claim that Tim Robbins is only 6'4.75 is a tragedy, but its Rob's site: Click Here

His performance in Mystic River really deserved the Oscar...really sold the haunted shell of a man, simultaneously hulking & scary as well as pathetic. Out of all things in the film his work there has aged the best so far.

@Dejavu: I think they may have shot Shawshank a certain way to make him look more convincing as the self-confidant inmate who beat the system and serves as a hero to the other inmates. His towering presence naturally served the part.
Somewhat similar to what they did with Michael Clark Duncan in The Green Mile a few years later.

What the guy below me said. Saying Tim Robbins is under 6'5 is absolute nonsense. I've seen him twice. Anyone who wants to catch a glimpse of him should go by the Actors Gang in Culver City. He's got to be 6'6.

Rob Tim is about 6ft6, this is wrong. Tim is taller than 6ft5 Vince Vaughn

What if he really has never been over 6'4.5? After all, a big 6'4.5 is still very tall in Hollywood...
Judd said on 9/Jan/15
in my opinion he was 6'4.75-5" at his peak and today a strong 6'4.5"
Andrea said on 7/Jan/15
Rob, what do you think about his 6'4.5 claim? You think that's possible? I mean, if Morgan freeman was really a bit over 6'2 at his peak, it's hard to believe Tim was under 6'5!
Editor Rob
well he could genuinely have measured that, but maybe didn't stand quite at his tallest. Or he measured 6ft 5 and just dropped the half inch to be part of the 6ft 4 range crowd.

Maximus said on 30/Aug/14
He is one of those actors that is obviously tall. I do believe that he states his height a little shorter to avoid being type cast. I believe he is at least 6'5" minimum without shoes.....he is obviously taller than Morgan Freeman in ShawShank and not many actors can to that to Freeman.
Danimal said on 14/Aug/14
Saw him on Conan about a decade ago. Had more than 2" on him. He was giving Conan presents for Christmas and they stood side by side. Conan was bare minimum 6'4" and has also claimed 6'4.5" for himself. Robbins had at least 2" on him. Robbins imo at his peak was 6'5" and change at night and a solid 6'6" (if not slightly over that) in the morning. 6'4.75" is just not true for his peak. He had several inches on Morgan Freeman, who was close to 6'3" 20 years ago.
Arch Stanton said on 13/Aug/14
Howard Stern can look taller than 6 ft 5 as he's rail thin.
Sam said on 13/Aug/14
Don't forget that Vaughn looked about the same as Michael Strahan, who admitted he wasn't the full 6'5"...Robbins has a slightly leaner build I think so at times he can seem taller, but I'd guess there's not a whole lot difference between Vaughn and Robbins with good posture. Stern definitely seems a little taller than that.
I get guessed at 6'7" or even 6'8" at times and I'm 6'5" tops (about 6'5.25" morning height).
Bishop said on 12/Aug/14
Rob, who do you think would be the tallest out of these three, Howard Stern, Vince Vaughn, or Tim Robbins?
Editor Rob
Howard Stern never really looks a sub 6ft 5 and could be a guy who has rounded down from a fraction above it.

Be honest though James, how many guys of that sort of impressive height do you see in public though who look good though? All I know if that if you really measure near 6 ft 5 barefoot after a long day with relaxed posture then first thing in the morning with good footwear you'll probably look 6 ft 7 to most people and stand out in public as a massive bloke. I think a lot of people underestimate how tall a proper guy this height really is as you often get guys who are more like 6'3" claiming 6'5".
I agree and even 6'3 guys claim 6'6

True. Someone like Ralf Möller who is a very strong 6'5 would look t VERY big in person even more so than robbins.
However there very impressive statures can't really compensate for there not so good 'looks' can it? That said you get huge guys like Dolph lundgren, steven seagal and darius Danish who have looks as well. I mean how smug and cocky can you be to be massive in height and good looking? They really did hit the genetic jackpot.

Rob i think he wears absolutely flat shoes. 6'3 guys come very close to him. Sean Penn almost looks 5'9 with him (who definitely wears 2.75 inch lifts). For a 5'7 guy you should be a head shorter than a 6'3 guy or 6'4 guy. I just about touch the lip of a 192 cm guy.

6'4.5 Id say. If he claims 6'4.5 and 6'5 likely he measures 6'4.5 and sometimes rounds up as most would. Its like my tall friend I posted a pic with. He claims 6'5 but has said he's been measured 6'4.5-6'4.75 too

I've met him twice. He runs the Actor's Gang in Culver City, Ca. He's closer to 6'6 then 6ft5. Anyone who thinks he's as low as 6'4 hasn't met him. Don't take my word for it. Go check out the Actor's Gang yourself. I've also seen Jason Segel, Zachary Levi and Kevin Sorbo. They're all 6'3. Tim Robbins makes them all look like bitches.
JayofNJ said on 9/May/14
Tim is easily six foot five inches. He is one of the tallest actors around. Probably almost as tall as Fred Gwynn.
Sam said on 17/Apr/14
Yes, pretty implausible with almost no struggle to be heard either...Robbins probably easily has 50 pounds and 9 inches on Cruise. When did Cruise's construction worker (haha) suddenly become a ninja? WOTW is not Spielberg's finest hour, maybe I'm biased since I'm not a fan of Cruise, outside of Tropic Thunder.
Ted said on 24/Mar/14

Btw, anyone else find that scene in War of the Worlds where 5'7" Tom Cruise 'takes out' 6'5" Tim Robbins in a closed door brawl pretty implausible?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Jan/14
Around 194-195cm today. In his 20s and 30s he might've scraped 196cm. But, in Shawshank I think they just made him look even bigger. That cast had other legitimately tall actors (i.e. Morgan Freeman, Clancy Brown, Bob Gunton) who looked average at best next to Tim.
Goose said on 3/Jan/14
I sat next to him at the bar of a French Bistro in Union Square 15 years ago. I've got news for you guys - he's 6'7. Ignore the fact he lists his height lower, he'd get less acting jobs if he did because he'd be typecast which I'm sure his publicist told him years ago. JI'm 5'10 and have a couple of 6'5 buddies and he appeared to be 1.5 - 2 inches taller than them. Abnormally tall.

This guy has to be 6'5. He looks 3 inches taller than legit 6'2 tall guys like John cusack and Morgan freeman
Arch Stanton said on 9/Oct/13
He did look a proper 6'5" in the Shawshank Redemption (arguably the best film ever made) but looked really weedy/skinny of frame back in '94 and looked probably 170 pounds at that height. He had about 3 inches on Morgan Freeman anyway, that's true.
Rusty said on 17/Sep/13
I bet 6'4.5" was a typical afternoon height but he likely scraped 6'5" in the morning and got his claim that way.

If he had just claimed 6ft4, I wouldn't doubt 6ft5 for a second. I think Vince Vaughn mightve done it aswell. But I reckon he got measured at 6ft4.5in/194cm at some point.
But could he have been 196cm?
Arch Stanton said on 24/Jul/13
Didn't really look a full 6'5 or more in Mystic River. He looked 6'4" range I think..
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Jul/13
Yeah Lorne I agree.
Freeman was at least a strong 6"2" peak, probably 6"2.5"/189cm.
Still looks 6"2" on the dot now

If you upgraded him to 195cm, you should really upgrade Morgan Freeman. Say 6ft2.25in peak, 6ft1.75 now?

James said on 27/Feb/13
In pics recently he's not looking 6'5
BEASTMAN said on 23/Feb/13
If you look at the pictures too quickly, there's an illusion Tim's much taller, but he isn't if you add a straight line from the tip of Morgan's head to somewhere along the forehead of Tim's head. Don't get fooled by Tim's hair. There is no more than 7 cm difference in the 1st photo, where Tim's posture is slightly better than Morgan's. 2nd photo looks a 5cm difference and 3rd photo looks a 5-6cm difference. Therefore, I average it out at 6'4.25-6'4.5 with a possible 6'4.75 peak. By the way, here is the interview where Tim claims 6'5. He also says that Morgan is 6'3, admitting he was less than 3 inches taller than him. Since Morgan is 6'2 and not 6'3 though, Robbins can't be closer to 6'5 than 6'4.
Click Here (4:25-4:35)
James said on 21/Feb/13
Actually in the first pic Robbins looks 197cm IF freeman is still 6'2, 196cm in the second 194cm in the third photo.
If Robbins is still 195cm then there is a chance he could have been 196cm in his 20s.
BEASTMAN said on 30/Jan/13
Doesn't look quite 6'4.75 judging by these pics with Freeman (6'2). I reckon he's 6'4.25-6'4.5. I take back my previous comment, because I think it's possible he MAY have been 6'4.75 at his peak when younger. Doubt he was ever a complete 6'5 though.

Maybe if he was measured with a short pen or a rock he's 6'4.5", but that's not reliable. The only way you'll truly find out how tall you are is under the scale at the doctors office or a wall
mounted height stand. He's 6'5". I've seen guys who are that tall and they have to duck
Through doors and bend down most of the time. He shaved a 1/2" off probably and saying
hes 6'6" in shoes in nonsense.

Shaun said on 26/Nov/11
Sure he could measure 6'4.5" barefoot if completely relaxed with posture and a tight marker to the skull afternoon/evening. A guy who measures that height will always look around 6'6" to most people, look at Kobe and
Michael Jordan who I think are the same height as Robbins. I bet most people estimate Robbins at 6 ft 6.
Mathew said on 19/Nov/11
The New One says on 5/Nov/11
I have to agree with what Alex just said. I do think he was always 6-4.5, and he even admitted it in his earlier quote. I don't know why he makes other people look shorter than what they're listed at, maybe it's shoes, but he might have just said 6-5 recently to round up for once.
If you're a legit 6'4.5" who holds good posture and tend to wear shoes in the 1.25"+ range (large side of normal), you're going to look 6'6" sometimes, especially next to people who lie about their own height.

Unsure about Robbins,s height. The truth is that i thought he looked closer to 6ft6 range in his prime, maybe 6ft5-6ft5.5 barefoot, but i dunno in some recent pics with Morgan Freeman, who is still a legit 6ft2 guy (in my opinion)he only looks about 2 inches taller which would put him in 6ft4 range! Hey, I,m not saying he is that height, but maybe the previous listing at 6ft4.5 is more accurate.
Shaun said on 4/Nov/11
The 6'6"-6'7" claimers are forgetting how huge a legit 6'5" actually is. A legit 195cm barefoot guy will always look 6 ft 6 to most people like Robbins and Usain Bolt do.

ANDREA[ITA] said on 26/Oct/11
6'4.5 at the end of the day makes him a legit 6'4.75! If he were 6'4.5 lots of celebs should be drastically downgraded! An example? Edward norton: he looks at least 15 cms shorter!

robbins look 1.2" under 6'5.5 james cromwell. maybe 6'4.5 was closer in reality.

Nah talk of at least 198cm is bunk. The most he could possibly be is 6'5.5" barefoot. The tallest I've seen him look is between 6'6" and 6'7" range in footwear. To me he looks around 6 ft 6 in shoes. He's somewhere around the 6'5" mark. He could shrink to 6'4.5" as he once claimed at the end of the day..

James if tim is 194 today, john cusack is no more than 184! Why do you upgrade the shorter and upgrade the real tall ones? He could be 196 because he looks that in most photos! Bince vaughn, that you claim at 195-196, im sure would be little shorter than tim!

Vegas Goerge Hertzberg would be about 0,5 shorter than all the men that you just mentioned (although that might be the case with robins too) ;)

i remember robbins looked about 3 inches taller than john cusack in tapeheads and that was mid 80s and robbins had a big afro in that movie, haven't seen High Fidelity so can't comment on that
with joan cusack whom rob has at ~5'8 not sure on footwear, thats a screenshot of final scene in arlington road
Click Here
tims got a footwear advantage here and closer to the camera but he could stand a little straighter so probably evens out, about 9 inches taller in that shot
Click Here i would say tim and this guy would be pretty much identical in height both 6'5 men, if we assume joan cusack is around rob and jennys height
Click Here you can also throw john cleese at peak into the mix, if you posted a shot of all those 3 barefoot and shaven headed side by side in the early 80s (an early 90s george obviously) i bet nobody here would be able to tell much if any difference in those 3 guys heights, tom noonan would be pretty much around those 3 mens heights too

Furthermore Rob, you gave Cusack 6'2.5" based on him commenting on his height as of recent, yet Tim Robbins has recently said he's 6'5". Why not take his word for it and list him at 6'5" (which is also WAY too low for him, but at least it's being consistent Rob).
Cusack might have had footware disadvantage making the difference look more like 3-4 inches.
Shaun said on 28/Aug/11
Certainly. If you compare him to the door frame (usually about 6'8") he's about 2 inches under them in shoes. I think he's 6'6" in normal shoes.

I agree he can look 6'6 ... He was like foot taller then Martin Lawrence ... Do we really think Lawrence is 5'4.75 lol ?

shaun would u agree that robbins looked a legit 6'5 in nothing too lose?

Rob, anything under a flat 6'5" is just not reasonable. How can you have John Cusack at 6'2.5" and Tim Robbins only 2 1/4" taller? Is that all you really see between them?
Shaun said on 26/Aug/11
Robbins looks about 6'6" in shoes, no more. 6'5" looks about right barefoot.

6'7" morning height? Hardly. Benicio del Toro is a legit 6'2"-6'2.5", same height as Robert Davi.
Vegas said on 26/Aug/11
danimal you really think robbins was 6'7 and tom noonan was only 6'4??
if you look at someone who is ~6'7 like stephen merchant on screen or in photos there is no way robbins looked that tall e.g. not even close to standing straight
Click Here its interesting merchant has no problem saying he is 6'7 on every talk show he is on despite the fact he is trying to break into hollywood, robbins was well established by 1995 as a director and an actor winning numerous awards for both, he was well known worldwide by that time as a terrific actor who could play a variety of roles so whether he was 9ft or 4ft it wouldn't have made much difference,coming out and saying his real height was 6'7 at that time wouldn't have made any difference or reduce his chances of roles, its an awful pity i didn't get to meet him last year during the arthurs day guinness celebration as something else came up, looking at youtube he was taking photos after the show too :(
robbins these days is shorter than 70+ year old james cromwell and i have my doubts cromwell was ever a legit 6'7 man himself as he was noticeably shorter than richard moll back in the early 80s on nightcourt, the tallest i have ever seen cromwell look was on star trek

Sorry, but I'm sticking with 6'7" morning height for Tim Robbins at his peak. Walked around at 6'6" and change during the day. Today is a strong 6'5"/weak 6'6". Just too much evidence to support this. 6'5" is him low balling not to appear as a freak (reduce his chances of getting roles).
Robbins has NEVER looked 6'7 that is beyond ridcolous . that is peter crouch tall range and robbins never looks that big. 6'4.75 is perfect. in the early morning would be 6'6 flat and quickly shrink down too 6'5 1/2 for most off the morning and would be 196cm by luncthime and 195cm in the afternoon.

He trully towered over Paul Newman in The Hudsucker Proxy. Next to Robbins is the shortest Newman looked, shorter than he looked next to George Kennedy in Cool Hand Luke, of course he could have lost a little height by then.
Hansen said on 26/Aug/11
what i knew john cusack was a weak 6ft2 by fact. tim robbins had near 4inch taller than cusack. maybe he is 6ft5 for awhile.. nowadays im not sure he is this mark. looking more like 194-195 range.

193cm is indeed a hard pill to swallow...
194cm is the very lowest the man could be. But I think the current 6"4.75(195cm) listing is spot on.
ANDREA[ITA] said on 25/Aug/11
Lol if he were 6'4, this site is a ****, with no offense, rob! But john cusack is solid 4 inches shorter than him and he's listed 189!

ANDREA[ITA] says on 25/Aug/11
in some photos he looks close to 2 metres! With Charlize Theron, that in heels is probably about 185, he looks at least 18 cms taller, so about 6ft8 in shoes! How's that possible, Rob? But that's not the only picture! With John Cusack, that you listed at 189, he looks at least 199! With Clive Owen, that you listed at 188, he looks at least 197! With Sean Penn he looks at least 197! In the Shawshank Redemption he looked 3.5 inches taller than Morgan Freeman, so 197 again! He looks about 15 cms taller than Edward Norton, so 198 according to the listings!
LOL

Rampage yeah with Morgan Freeman he looks 6'4 flat or even 192cm in the last 2 pics if Freeman is 188cm.
With James Cromwell looks more 6'4 than 6'5.......
rampage would you agree that if clive owen is 188cm the tim robbins did not look over 194cm in comparison? Some think that clive could be 187cm if thats the case then seriously tim looks 193-194cm in comparison.
if you look at robbins frame in photos he really does look more 6'5 than 6'4.
6'4 (193cm) is hard too belive. would u not agree rampage?
