For some reason this guy looks shorter than 172cm to me...Maybe it's his build that misleads me? Besides he always looks like he's swallowed a pole or something...

Tom Cruise is not average and not ordinary by any means. He is a mega-Hollywood blockbuster celebrity, multi-millionaire (if not billionaire already), with good looks, and dating/intimate/and marrying gorgeous women. In regards to fame & fortune, he's on the top of the world, recognized in any continent, any nation, and living a life most of us only dream of. From what I've read and seen on tv, he's also very personable, one of the nicest celebrities out there. Looks, personality, money, fame, women, Tom Cruise has it all, charmed life but people will say he's not perfect.........he's short, average height, under 6 feet. If Tom was 6 feet tall, there wouldn't be much people could say to cut him down to size.

You're not psychologyst but a psycho! I never said you made fun of Tom, but that you think yourself superior to him. To show it you remark his obvious defects, rather than showing the virtues you exceed him (wich are none). Typical of insecure guys, blaming others of own faults, BIG inferiority complex of yours.

Hey Glenn guys did that at your gym too? D. Ray what kind of setup do you have at home? Yeah Tom Cruise is probably closer to 5'7" than 5'8" its hard to tell his action star boots can get pretty big.

Yeah D. Ray, I agree I much prefer working out at home, there are too many variables and issues with other people. Think about it, you have random people all who have different temperments, manners, and ettiquet. I live in uptown Manhattan and ordered a powertec bench/squat rack and dumb bells just to avoid having to go to NYSC and have dudes walking around completely naked in the locker room with something to prove.

To be honest with you, I don't get the exhibitionism thing, either. I find that working out at a gym *robs* me of energy rather than actually psyching me up. I'm there to improve myself, not to show off or be watched. I always found that I never made much progress at a gym, because my concentration was never fully on what I was doing.
So yeah, I much prefer working out at home, too.

i think you can judge someone height only if you are on the exact same floor i met a like 4 times tom but we werent exactly on the same floor at some points i thaught he was aleast 5'11 in shoes but i wasnt on the same floor same for travolta i was only 1 second realy on the same floor he looked 6'0.5" to 6'1" defenetly a lithel over 6 feet and tom was aleast 5'9 i saw him runing a few times by my side he looked alaest 5'10 in shoes but the outside heel was samller than mine 1.4" his heel was 1" i doubt he had huge lifts inside he was runing so well so it is a mistery he looked 5'9 when i met him i remeber he was 1.5" taller than spielberg on the set so i think he is 5'11 in the best lifts

This is a funny site!!!! you guys are halarious!!!.... That picture with tom and katie standing next to each other, and his legs being the same height but overall he is still shorter! LOL... that looked like a camera trick.
Being short is hard to deal with, and I feel kinda sorry for Tom. He would probably give up a couple million to be a lil' taller.
But on the other hand he should be happy with his millions and just stack money on top of his head if he wants to be taller!

Hey, dudes! How are you doing? Well, I saw a commment where it said that someone around 5 ft 10 in will see a great difference on someone who is 5 ft 7 or 8. Well I'm five foot eleven (180 cm) and my eyes are 169 cm above the ground, so, if someone is 5 foot 8 (172) he'll be slightly taller than my eyes height. Greetings!

Great post, you've sumarized my thoughts in a better way: No decent guy can feel ofended when he notices another man's insecurity, a gentleman pretends not seeing it.
Raj: I agreed that Tom's short & in your right on posting on it, as i grant myself the right on commenting so and any post in this page.
Never said i'm close to you, but on the antipodes.I said it was stupid on you making fun on a overcompesation needed man when it's clear you share same need.
Tom:
I coment your shortness without feasting on it, i'm not bothered on your fame
being 5'7" whilst i'm 184cm and i lack that. Who cares?
Leonary:
Darn accurate, 40" is not much over the time it took me writting that.

Explain this check the leg length of tom and katie, Katie is wearing atleast 3 inch heels and she is taller then tom. But Tom's leg length is the same as Katies legs. That must mean Tom is wearing lifts over 3 inches. Or Tom just has long legs or katie has short legs, which I doubt.

leonari had a great post that seems to ring true. The people who seem to care and concern themselves with Tom's height are probably guys who are average to slightly below average in height and have a burning illogical desire to not only have another famed example of themselves but to push their agenda and feelings of inadequacy on others, IE: Tom Cruise.
"Anonymous, tom is a short guy and what people dont like is that he tries to hide it. Insecurity is something nobody likes and especially coming from someone that earns trillions and gives this mr perfect image."
What people don't like, or what you don't like? I am hard pressed to ever be offended by someone who has a physical insecurity, as everyone does. So what is the big deal with him wearing larger sized boots, as if you wouldn't? What if he doesn't want to go around constantly saying "I'm average height" just to quell your and many people on here's desires. Gives this Mr. Perfect Image, I think you have more issues with Tom Cruise than most people, who cares what image he exudes, he has to exude that image becuase people like you judge him on every single physical and mental characteristic he shows.
What of the women who wear make-up on TV, who are airbrushed on magazine covers, are they not JUST as insecure? Why not hate on Jessica Simpson for trying to cover he acne, or any other "it" girl. What of the breast implants that were mentioned early, what of the gastric bypass surgery? Most women are far more insecure then men with their looks and there are many men especially on here who are insecure, how many of you guys desire to be even taller than you are now?
A lot of male celebrities experience balding, yet they should just tell everyone they are bald and shout it on the mountain top? What benefit would that bring them, the fact is people would heckle constantly or derrive pleasure.
The main reason this thread receives so much attention is because human nature has instilled a love for seeing those who we view as being on top as having a flaw, hence the almost orgasmic enjoyment on commenting on Cruise's stature. At 5'8" he isn't even far below average.

Tom's attitude is stupid i must say again (so you can understand me) as that of the ones who comment the obvious (as you do). In fact in spite all his money and fame the guy isn't so satisfied with his life, if, as HelloKitty said, must wear boots+extrahelp to achieve a medium height, and, as far as common knowledge's, had to show off she-lovers to vanish rumours. SO???
Guy, tell me about those Hollywood tricksters new inventions or improved lies
to keep up with an image, that's fun not the trash-bin s*** wich you scavenge.
Nope, it's quite clear that you don't think twice what you say, no need to state it.
And as concerning of cockiness, you are true, people do like it! Perhaps that so much of it and bragging tries to conceal a lack of that matter.
Overcompensating a shortage (know what i mean, in ") showing opposite?
You are not very far from Tom dude.

I dont stop my life for more than a second to make a serious comment about this type of thing. Tom is short and he hides it, thats a fact. other stars as short as him DO NOT WEAR LIFTS, so tell me sumfin that makes sense. Everyone likes cockiness if its in a funny sarcastic way. Only smart people get it and the ones that are insecure are the ones that respond as u did. LOL

In that pic with jamie fox, looks like tom is wearing boots with about an inch heel on and possibly with lifts inside, still shorter than jamie fox who looks to be wearing white flat sneakers. Yes tom is short, not five eleven, not a six footer, maybe five nine with boots and lifts on, but he's maintained his boyish, youthful look, compared to several other actors who have "pruned out" and getting face lifts versus shoe lifts, except for stallone who probably has both.

Tom's attitude hiding his height is ridiculous as is yours sparing his life,
he's an star, he must keep on with the advertised image, wether is a well known short guy or not, kinda stupid how the show-bussines work, isn't it?
Your words show quite clear that you think you're over Tom, but you pardon him
as being short, in fact you excuse his fame as long as he admit his faults.
Well one thing i know people doesn't like either is cockiness.

Anonymous, tom is a short guy and what people dont like is that he tries to hide it. Insecurity is something nobody likes and especially coming from someone that earns trillions and gives this mr perfect image.
what we say is that hes very SHORT and theres nothing wrong with that when you are cool with it.
if he was like "yeah i go places in sandals and barefoot and i never hide my height" attitude, people would like him better.

I would say he's 5'7"/5'8" but honestly, who cares? The only reason people care about this is because he's been a sex symbol for 20 years, and people think sex symbols should be sterotypically tall. The fact he's a bit short just throws the whole thing off for some people, and that's fine. However, if he weren't famous, nobody would care or think about his height much at all. Nobody would stop and stare and say "He's really short!" And the truth is that 5'7" or 5'8" isn't all that short, though it certainly is below the average. I see guys that are that height all over the place, in fact I'd say maybe...what?....3 out of ten guys or more are floating right around there. I think 5'8" can be almost be viewed as the very low end of medium height, while 5'7" guys have perhaps "entry level" shortness, meaning there are many that height and it isn't super severe. At 5'10" I really just don't feel that much bigger than the people I know who are Tom's height...I don't think most average height guys notice a hure difference between a 5'7" or 5'8" and themselves (especially depending on their footwear). Now above average height guys probably feel differently.....
Just my $.02....

I think 5'8" can be almost be viewed as the very low end of medium height, while 5'7" guys have perhaps "entry level" shortness, meaning there are many that height and it isn't super severe. At 5'10" I really just don't feel that much bigger than the people I know who are Tom's height...I don't think most average height guys notice a hure difference between a 5'7" or 5'8" and themselves (especially depending on their footwear). Now above average height guys probably feel differently.....
Just my $.02....

He's as tall as a 5' 8.5" person with shoes on... and those people have shoes on too. It's not like they're barefoot and he is wearing 2" shoes or something! They all have on shoes of approximately the same height. Why do people want Tom to be short so badly?

hes 5-8 with shoes. Tom is probably 5-6 barefoot. Its a bit stupid to argue over if the guy is 5-6 or 5-8 when you are that short!
the important thing about tom is if hes a good or bad actor...and hes pretty mediocre as an actor.

In light of Jamie Foxx's recent statement that he's "like 5'9"," here are some clear comparisons that seem to put Tom at about 5'7.5":

As nuts as Tom is I think he would think we are more nuts debating his height. He never said he was anything other than 5'7". It's not like you could find a quote of him claiming anything else. It's pretty much been a known fact since the early 80's that he is 5'7"ish. I also don't think that he would argue that he has worn lifts, boots, all kinds of footwear, and stood on boxes or did what ever it took in his movies.
I really don't think there is much to uncover here.. the guys is right around the 5'7" mark.

I watched the same Ellen show as Anon. and was very careful to note the difference in height. I was shocked to see a difference of at least 2 inches. Either Ellen is shorter than we think, Tom is taller than we think, or he's actually wearing lifts. You know, sometimes I doubt this whole celebs wearing lifts thing (seems like maybe it was an old, now antiquated, tradition) but Tom really makes me think again.

Tom has killer boots on throughout Top Gun (except during beach volleyball, where his true height is (somewhat) revealed). Plus, somebody posted a link here months ago going over how the directors actively tried to shoot Cruise as taller than McGillis (e.g., she's always leaning, sitting, and so on)

In line with the articles below I was watching an entertainment report on a morning show this morning and they were making a big deal out of the "lifts" that just recently become a publicity issue for Tom. They labeled him as 5'7". It could be interesting if this gets some steam.

I also just saw MI3. I watched the angles carefully, and clearly they are trying to match Cruise heights with his co-stars, without appearing obvious. By the way, I worked with Ving on Dark Blue, and he is just over 5-10. Cruise looks 5-8 in MI3, but he always has on bug shoes and boots.

But.....in other scenes with his character's girlfriend/wife he is at least 3 to 5 inches taller. There is a scene in the movie where the couple gets married and to my surprise, they are the same height!!

Actually I don't think he's gay. And he just seems to like taller women in general, nothing wrong with that. In fact I think he has quite a good taste in women ;) In comparison with all the fuss about Brad Pitt's relations, i think he has been with better looking women, but that's just personal taste ofcourse. He's average in height, not short. But his behaviour is getting stranger with the years, i don't remember there being a fuss about him a few years ago. The media also plays a big role ofcourse, since a few years even the smallest little thing 'celebs' say and do is being printed and covered all over the world, it's becoming really annoying imho.
Anyway, I actually have to give hem creds for being not tallish and making a very decent career in action flicks. It's not always easy to appear strong when you have to stand up to someone who's 6'1-6'2 for example. :)

The most fascinating aspect of searching through literally hundreds of web photos of Cruise are the incredible number of shots of him with a female companion. Some have him passionately kissing the woman he's with. I don't believe there's another well-known celebrity with as many. What do you think? I believe it's a little over the top.

Heh the best place for C/D-list celebs in London Rob is Notting Hill. My mother and younger sister are policewomen down there. My grandparents on my mother's side bought a house there after the war when it was certainly not the happening place it is today.
You can literally walk down any few streets and bump into some crappy soap actor or lesser TV presenter. I've been down about 6 times and to be fair I have only seen Vanessa Feltz, Alan Davis, Nigel Havers (who my mate thought was Richard from Richard and Judy but it wasn't), some big guy that presented some weird comedy history show and the tallest one from the Fast Show.
Between my mother and my sister though they claim to have seen Robbie Williams jogging, Robert Plant, Chris Barrie, Eddie Izzard, some minor Eastenders actors, and a flat my sister was interested in was owned by Ben Fogherty or whatever his name is.
Plus you can go to the West End and go to the stage door if they let you. My mother got a program from "Art" signed by the two smaller League of gentleman guys, she said they were both small and the dark haired one was really stroppy.
The only problem is that you just kind of see them walking along so it's genuinely hard to gauge their height and I simply don't have the brass balls to walk up to these people. Especially if you had a camera, you'd either look like a nutter or paparazzi.

The producers don't want Cruise to look shorter that's why. He is considered handsome by most of the American public, and I guess his height would take away from his machoness or whatever...especially in Mission Impossible where he would be shorter and weaker looking than the others.

Can Tom really be considered short? I mean 5'8" isn't far from the average height. If someone is 5'10" or 5'11" we don't consider them "super tall" so why do we consider Tom who is about one inch below average "super short"?

Hey Rob why don't you really push this celeb thing to the limit and start another site speculating whether celebs are gay or straight? I'm telling you man that's gold, you could call it AC/DC or something like that. I mean you'd probably be up to your ears in slander cases, but it would be really fun for us.

You really think he's fruity Frank? I still cannot decide to be...well frank actually. There's definately something off about his relationships with women, but then again he IS a cast iron whacko. I guess what I mean is, is he fruity or is he just kooky? *drum role* thank you I'm here all week, try the steak I heard it's great.
Hey Rob why don't you really push this celeb thing to the limit and start another site speculating whether celebs are gay or straight? I'm telling you man that's gold, you could call it AC/DC or something like that. I mean you'd probably be up to your ears in slander cases, but it would be really fun for us.

Editor Rob I try to keep away from controversy. Doing a www.battingawayfromhome.com site would quickly send me bankrupt!
Talk about height etc is pretty harmless, but certain subjects touch nerves and provides an excuse for lawyers to come after you. If I ever do another celebrity related site it would be about a subject close to my ears.
Oh, and not that many celebs contact me really, they must be delighted with their listing!!! ;-)
But celebs have stumbled across this site and I've told a few at conventions. Actually, if you think about it - 3 million people visit this site a year. I spend max 2 hours a day moderating this site (i.e. reading comments etc, researching heights), but remarkably I have a couple of other websites that get 1/10th the visitors but make 5 times the income this site does! Sometimes I feel like selling this site and moving on...]

I saw Tom Cruise on Letterman last night. There is an incredible shot of him next to Jamie Olliver. If we can nail Olliver's height, we can end the Cruise debate once and for all. Does anyone have any information on Olliver's height or a reliable photo from Letterman last night?????????????!!!!!!

I had the privilege today to see Tom Cruise this afternoon at a taping of The View airing on May 5, 2006. I am 5'8" tall. Tom was next to me several times. He is clearly 1 or more inches shorter than me. Who cares how tall he is anyway! He is sooo cute at any height.

"The saddest part about it is, I think if he was honest about him being short he would be more of a hero to shorter men."
If Cruise was totally honest he'd also be a hero to another other type of men, short, medium height and tall.

Leung, 5'4" is not petite for a woman. Where do you get such ideas? Sure young people are taller then older ones. The overall average shifts up per decade with...1 whole centimeter! Tadaaaam!
There are differences in countries too but let's just say in France or the US a 5'9 man is (on the shorter side of) AVERAGE and so is a 5'4" woman.
You're just plain wrong man. And the fact that Cruise gets comments on his stature is because he's an action hero in films and those are roles usually played by tall men. People expect him to be taller so they are kinda disappointed. Plus he's only 5'7" (not 5'8.5") and furthermore he's a bit of a weirdo (scientology cucoo cucoo).

Leung, 5'9" is NOT short by today's standards. That's a joke. For American men, the average height for men who are aged 20-39 (in other words, men at their peak heights) is 5'10" (although if you take into account Mexican-Americans of that age, it brings the average down). 5'9" remains the average height for all adult males in the U.S. For females, 5'4.5" is the height for American women aged 20-39, while for ALL adult women the average isn't even quite 5'4".
So yeah, you're wrong.

Leung the average height of a country takes into acount ALL men and ALL women. Are you suggesting we simply dismiss old people's height because they are old?
The average height in most countries is still pretty much 5'9 for men and 5'4 for women. Infact in the US some believe that the overall average may be going down a little do to poor dieting and lack of health in general of the poorer classes.
At 5'8.5 barefoot in the UK I rarely feel especially small, there many who are a little taller and a bunch who are greatly taller, but there's still plenty men who are smaller. I can count on one hand the amount of people who have reffered to me as small, where as I've had numerous occasions where people have guessed my height as 5'10. I think that's where a lot of this comes from, people being awful guages of height and exaggerting it somewhat.

The saddest part about it is, I think if he was honest about him being short he would be more of a hero to shorter men. Infact just in general he would get a lot of respect for being a little man at the top of the industry.
It was like that whole thing with the guy supposedly having a tape of him and Cruise having sex. I mean it's not nice but if you're straight and you know you're straight, you've gotta know your not on there. He should have just said, "well lets see this tape," nothing says coverup like a millionaire suing some bum (that works both ways I guess) because he suggested he was gay.
At the end of the day a real man doesn't care how tall he is, or how big his biceps are, whether some random people think he is gay or how attractive he is. He just gets on with what he's got and makes it work for himself and sod what anybody else thinks.

Yesterday I was in Rome and I've seen Tom Cruise(he is in Rome for the presentation of the prime of Mission Imposible 3). I am 5'10"and I had normal dress shoes on (1inch), so I was 5'11"with shoes on.Tom was 1 inch shorter than me, he was 5'10"with his shoes on. One thing I can say for sure: he had elevator shoes at his feet.I know very well elevator shoes and he had elevator dress shoes with an advantage in height of about 2.5 inches. So I think he is about 172 cm barefoot(5'7.75).

I agree with ds that tom cruise is just about 5'8" and that he's insecure. Most men that I know that are about 5'7-5'8" insist on dating women that are only about an inch shorter than them or taller than them; which makes sense why Tom is always dating taller women. The men I know that are Cruise's height don't like women that are a lot shorter such as 4'11-5'4". As for guys that are below 5'5", I, like ds, always have seen that they're more comfortable with their height and have no problem dating a woman of whatever height.

Also when standing next to steven spielberg, spielberg seems to be about an inch taller and he is 5'7". Maybe all the scientology and jumping on oprah's couch has made tom delusional!!!!

I think he's about 172 cm. He never looked short to me. I think it's just the fact that he's insecure about his height and dates tall women. I find it more common that guys that are just below average (5'7"-5'8") are very insecure about their height, where as guys that are below 5'5" are not.

Editor Rob if he's insecure surely he'd be dating 4ft 11 women to look like a relative 'tall man' ;-)
but, the fact that interviewers rarely get to ask about his stature maybe gives sense of insecurity or annoyance...well, not many interviewers, I remember Jonathan Ross commenting upon his height

Frank2,
I suppose my post could be taken as claiming that scientology does offer some positives, but I didn't say they are "bright people who have tremendous confidence in themselves". What I should have said was part of the scientology ethos was "not to be sucked into what's not important in life since after this life your body will be transported to another organic alien body within in any corner of the universe at large and the process will start again - though be careful what you do in this life as every negative action will carry on to your next life and may manifest in problems such as dyslexia, depression etc etc". Creepy.
And as for your story about your old flame and waiting for her to "OD" - real charming way to put it.

You know I read an article in Rolling Stone today about scientology and it struck me that as a devout and highly ranked scientologist that it doesn't really fit that Cruise would wear lifts in public. Part of the scientology ethos seems to be about being comfortable with ones self - and not to be sucked in to what's not important in life (e.g. height) - you know some of the less creep stuff they espouse.

Part of the scientology ethos seems to be about being comfortable with ones self - and not to be sucked in to what's not important in life (e.g. height) - you know some of the less creep stuff they espouse.

Why do people think Tom has a bigger head in this picture? That makes me laugh! His head is not any bigger!! In the first picture, Glenn is leaning slightly closer to the camera, therefore, HE looks bigger compared to Tom and Tom's head. In the second picture, they are pretty much side to side, AND Glenn does not have as much hair as he did in the first picture, so, of course, Tom's head is going to look bigger, comparatively - he's closer and right next to Glenn. People - these are photographs. Even a small change in where one is standing, etc. can make dramatic effects on how big or small something looks. BOTH men are aloso more closely framed in the last picture, making them both look a little bigger. Yes, Tom is growing a gargantuan head with growth hormone!

These two photos can be used in the "SPOT THE DIFFERENCE" contest. For Glenn, man you haven't changed, even the expression! Tom has several changes. He has a bigger head (growth hormones?),bigger adam's apple (thyroid trauma?), bigger muscle (lifts in the jacket?), more expensive clothing (Glenn has improved too!), longer Dr. Spock ears, etc., etc.,

People routinely shrink during the day, especially if they're standing for long periods of time. A person can lose as much as half an inch by the end of the day. I lose about a 1/4" and gain it back the next day. Hey!! Maybe when I saw Elvis he had lost as much as half an inch and being that I had just arrived at work and was a 1/4" taller than normal he looked hardly any taller than me when he wasn't wearing his height-increasing shoes. Hmmmmmmmm......

Not really a direct comment about his height (which can be no more than 5-7), but look at how his head has grown from the first picture to the second. Even taking into account that they are closer to the camera in the second it is definately larger. Maybe he really has been injecting himself with growth hormones and it didnt make him taller it just gave him a bigger head.

Its amazing how those who get photographed with Tom HAVE TO WEAR FLAT SHOES. Take Katie, who nowadays MUST WEAR converse flat shoes in all outings! Nicole Kidman used to wear all those FLATS, but as she have said after the breakup as a sigh of relief : " I am glad to be wearing heels again"! You want to be with a great movie star? Then take your shoes off, Man!

I would also think that Tom doesn't actually wear show lift inserts but more just big heeled shoes. If you ever take time to look at peoples shoes on the street or when you are actually shoe shopping, you can easily find normal shoes with a good 2 inch heel. I don't actually wear shoe lifts or have ever seen them but i do admit that when i buy new shoes i always pick a nice 1.5 inch or so heel. I reckon tom just does the same. He wears a heavy working boot when casually dressed which does look a bit strange but plenty of my friends wear boots like this and they are over 6 foot. My dad is a builder and i've noticed he has around 6 pairs of work boots which all have a heel of atleast 2 inches. There is a make of boot called 'new rock' which are very popular among gothic teenagers and bikers. These boots have a heel of around 3.5 inches average but they do look pretty silly on normal dressed people so i would never wear a pair of these just to look 5'9 or so. At the end of the day you have to take off your's shoes and coming down 3 or 4 inches would be a bit of a bummer as opposed to just taking off your doc martin's or cat's. I've noticed that tom takes off his boots in war of the worlds in a scene at the start when he's getting into bed. He does look shorter but only about 2 inches. He flings his boots on the ground and they look like any pair of my old man's working boots. But lets not forget it is easy to look small if you are under 5'10 standing beside some guy of 6'3. I have friends who are 5'7 and i actually look tall beside them at 5'8 (with shoes) but then you walk down the street and pass a guy of 6'3 and what do you know im tiny again. Even tom at 5'10 with his boots can look very short beside some tall actor in a movie. It is just that we all have this image in our heads that he is like 5'5 so we read more in to it. We assume the taller man is like 5'9 but he's probably 6'2. It's just how it is for anyone that isn't really tall. Next time you're out for a few drinks with friends or whatever, look at one of your mates who is about 5'10 from across the room and if he/she is standing next to someone over 6 foot they to will look small even though they actually are a good height. Also i find people with mussle are less likely to look short. Tom is actually very built so this helps.

The amazing thing is why people keep saying that Tom is more than 5.8 , or less than5.75 ,even with the Glenn s pictures.
I allways said that Tom was 1.72 , so those photos confirm my theory.
Forget about torso and leg size ,that doesnt matter ,yo can have short legs , but long torso , and be taller than someone who have long legs but short torso.
The body proportions doesnt matter , every single person have his own unique genetic background ,so is no serious that you compare your legs size or torso when you try to compare your height with a celebrity.

It amazes me how people will argue over an inch in the difference for Tom Cruise. Look, the guy is 5'7 - 5'8. That's the reality. People want to go all nuts because Tom Cruise is by far biggest actor in the world of all time, but the truth is he's just not that short. He's far from tall, but measures in just under average. People make such a big deal over him because they figure someone of his success should be around the 6' mark.

Vanilla sky shows a scene with tom standing in front of a height chart and he is clearly just under 5'11. Tom wears very big shoes in this movie and in my opinion i'd say they are around 3 inches. so surprise-surprise, he's about 5'8. Beleive me i'm 5'6 and 5'8 with my boots on and i certainly don't look as tall as tom. I mean the correlation between the lower and higher leg lenght would be off the charts for a man of 5'6 like myself to wear lifts that would bring him up to 5'11. It would look nuts! That's why i am totally confident that tom is not actually that short. he's got very long legs for his height also and quite a short torso but he's definatly 5'8. Sure there is even a scene in day's of thunder when tom stands next to nicole barefoot and he is only 1 inch shorter. And don't say that he's on his tippy toes or on a f***ing platform because no man of his status is gonna embarras himself like that in front of a set full of people (not to mention his future wife). And also he's done is homework on shoes because its so hard to tell in war of the worlds. He seems to be just wearing a normal 1 and a half inch work boot but im sure there is another good inch too well tucked in there.

After watching the making of Collateral last night with some scenes of Tom next to Michael Mann and also of Tom doing physical training for the film in sneakers and him either actually being taller or the same height as the trainers I'm beginning to think Tom actually might be a legitimate 5'8"! Or at least maybe a 5'8 1/4" first thing in the morning and 5'7 3/4" at night.

height detective, as with any statistical data (and especially with height) there is a range for where we would judge a person to be of "average" height (this range could be 1 standard deviation from the mean for example), not just a specific value. By your reasoning if anyone under 1.76 is short, then a 1.77 guy is tall. You wouldnt compare and 1.75 person and a 1.77 person and call one short and the other tall, the height difference would hardly be noticable!

To make an opinion about a celebrity height , you need to forget about YOUR OWN HEIGHT , obviously , most people tend to downgrade celebrity for the fact that the celeb is more taller , or in the other hand , they say a cientifically short height is "average" , the average height for Americans is 1.76cm , below that is short , thats simple as it sounds.

well you know what they say "short guys have big balls and tall guys have big heads." im 5'7" but always tell people im 5'4". taller thinks he's better based on height(bighead). shorter earns its based on prejudice(bigballs). this site reminds me of the guy that runs around talking about how big his little pp is. irrelevance is a must for the weak.

I really don't think Tom's style is to wear lifts. If he wears any type of lifts perhaps a couple of extra insoles that would give him only less than 1/2 inch increase. So guys, relax Cruise is definetly not a shorty and definitely not a Tally. If you should be a good judger of height Cruise would be in the range of 5'7"-5'8". Period.

Rob, please repost if you can the pic of tomkat on the Motorbike leaving the MTV awards, you can get a great look at his lower leg and just how many inches his extreme shoes can add on. That original barefoot pic posted by Ronnie is very relevatory. I'm now 100% sure that he sports lifts b/c his lower legs are *magically* long in dress shoes but appallingly short barefoot

I'm wondering if he editor can weigh in here. obviously from those pics, Tom is NOT a short man. 5-8 is just below average; So why does EVERYONE, even the editorial press consistently disparage him as a 'shorty'? Is it because they're on to his elevator shoes(if he even has any) or simply because they like to pick on 'different' ppl. Tom 'difference' certainly has come to light in the past year. So what do you guys think? Igenious elevator technology or unfair bullying? one of the two

Editor Rob I don't know, maybe scientology plays a role in how people treat him? He is arguably most bankable star, but does not conform to 6ft 'ideal' height...maybe people feel better taking him down a peg or two...I think what Billy Connoly said is somewhat true.

Wow. Nice find, Ronie. That is seriously the first time I've EVER seen a pic of Cruise barefoot. I was starting to wonder if he wore them in the shower. He certainly looks shorter in that picture than in many other pics, but since I don't know the heights of the others...
Does anyone else notice his torso looks smaller (proportionally) than his legs? Anyways, I think this pic looks to show Cruise more around a low-end height guesstimate (around 5'7 even).

Polska, I agree that Tom can look 5'8, but also think the theory can be thrown out due to pics where he looks shorter. The pics where he looks 5'8 can be explained by lifts. How do you explain the ones where he looks max 5'7? You can elevate your height, but not decrease your height :-) For me, the Sinatra pic proves Tom is nearer 5'7 than 5'8.

You know, I've always been stuck on him being 5'7" but the more I look at different pictures I think he really is closer to 5'8." There are a few pics where he looks like he could really be 5'7" but these are few and could just be due to the camera angle. Those pics with Glenn really seal it for me. I think in the first if Glenn weren't slouching and leaning into him he'd be just a bit taller putting Tom at just under 5'8". The second one is a little strange as Tom looks taller than Glenn but if Tom were to ever wear lifts in public you can bet they'd be for formal wear, so maybe he's wearing lifts there. Or maybe there the angle favors Tom?

Hey 6 foot,
Technically, you are right. 5'9 is exactly average in America. But 5'7 is within average "range". So it is not short. Those 2 inches are not much. Also, if Tom is 5'7.5, then that rounds him up to 5'8. How much more "average" do you want? I know average height is on the rise for new generations, like you, but many would still consider anything above 5'9 average/tall, including 5'9.5.

I was in an elevator in NYC with Tom Cruise in 2002. I am 5'7" and was wearing flats. He was wearing shoes that were slightly built up (similar to doc martens but looked like they had a lift in them.) He was maybe an inch taller than me in that elevator. I am guessing he is problably 5'6" based on my experience of standing shoulder to shoulder with him. He is small, but has an astonishingly big head (literally and figuratively)for a guy of his stature. Arms looked totally normal sized.

The guy has existed and succeeded in the Holloywood environment for well over 20 years - a world underpinned by appearance and the competiveness that must follow. We see that notion frequetnly characterised by fake tan, botox, hair transplants, extensive cosmetic surgery etc etc. Tom is a short man, on any objective assessment do you really think he's going to ignore the prospect of a readily accessible height increase - he wears elevator shoes all the time. Similarly, he's employed in a world of make believe. He gets paid to pretend - enough said.

Yeah, I accept unquestionably that Tom stands at 173 cms in this photo(some may short,others may say nudging average). However, with human nature being what it is - that's 173cms "in shoes". Who knows, perhaps even elevator shoes. The reality is that the guy is no more than 5'7" in bare feet.
