He's big enough now to wear XXL shirts at a minimum. XL would look laughably small on him.
He can get away with XXXL
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 21/Feb/19
@Christian Need to add another 1/8 more. Remember Rob is 5'8 1/8 at his low. Tom look 6'2 1/4 with rob but we don't know he could be taller in person or he had 1/4 less footwear than Rob.
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 18/Feb/19
@Canson
I don't see 6'2.5" based on the photo. That just looks a 6 inch difference, so he looks 6'2 1/8".
viper said on 18/Feb/19
The hat is adding the illusion of Tom looking a tad taller IMO.
Thats no more than a 6 inch difference.
Andrea said on 18/Feb/19
To be fair to Jordan87, AAAA, I see where he's coming from because Tom actually doesn't look over 6'2 with Rob, and having seen other comments of his, he seems to base many of his estimates only on how celebrities look with Rob at the moment of the photo. Personally, I have a different approach and I think that Rob's photos give nothing more than a rough idea of how tall the celebrities he meets can be. In fact, what celebrities generally look and how tall Rob estimates them to be in person matter much more than Rob's pics with them, to me.
Speaking of Tom, I agree that 6'2.5 is overall the best guess. A chance of 6'2.25, but 6'2 flat? I doubt it.
Canson said on 18/Feb/19
Going off the pic with Rob I think a very strong 6’2 (6’2.25) up to the 6’2.5 listing could fit him. Looks 189ish
Pierre said on 18/Feb/19
By the scale 6"2' at the top of his cap then a little bit shorter,and the scale is imo a little bit low because Rob slouch imo
AAAA said on 15/Feb/19
Man, what is it with this guy?!?? Tom Welling and Pierce Brosnan are how I found this site back in 05. The fact that Rob actually got a picture with him only seems to have reinstigateged debate, not quelled it. I think 6’2.5 is the best guess. I used to say 6’2.75-6’3.25. I still think it is because he has a small head for his height. He’s def tall, but his proportions make him look even bigger without something else to scale against. Even in the pics with Routh, Routh has a big heaf and he has a smaller one with a short chin. He’s also the naturally largest of the 2. Crazy this debate is still happening.
Andrea said on 15/Feb/19
6'2 flat is still too low, though, moe. And you also said that Brandon Routh was about an inch taller than him in person, at 6'3, which is certainly not the case, if you look at them together:

Canson said on 15/Feb/19
@Jordan87: looking at him next to Rob he looks 6’2” range. I don’t know if a flat 6’2” but maybe a strong 6’2 to weak 6’3”. I agree with the listing here over the previous one but I won’t rule out 6’2.25 either. This spat culminated on other pages including Theler’s where Moe accuses me of things I didn’t do such as “hiding behind a computer and belittling stars”. That’s all because I don’t agree with his assessments on Theler and others and last I checked this is a free site but he makes it sound as if because he “claims” to have met someone that everyone else here must agree with him. I don’t know how saying a celeb doesn’t look as tall as they are is insulting them but I’ll digress. And It’s really no different than Moe saying Tim Robbins downplays his height which is borderline insulting if you ask me. Robbins claimed 6’4 1/2 before and 6’5 later yet he’s saying that he’s close to 6’6”. So if someone is going to tell me that me calling a celeb out about not being as tall as they claim or “accuse them of lying about their height” is insulting then saying someone is downplaying their height is no different. It’s just that Moe thinks that taller is better. And go look at Derek Theler’s page to see where Moe became belligerent with Joe, Bobby, and me all because our opinions differed from his saying things like “it’s no longer up for debate”. As far as proof, I don’t see any because if we are simply going off listed heights by Rob, he was closer all along being he’s now only 1/4” less than he was before Rob met him
Jordan87 said on 14/Feb/19
@ Thisismoe and Canson,
Canson your Qoate below
"@Moe: 2nd grade insults? Again you are the one who began insulting Bobby3342, Joe, and me all because we didn’t agree with you that he was that tall"
So Am I to say that Canson you don't think Tom is 6'2"? Moe claims he is saying Tom is 6'2 so im not sure what the story is and why you guys are arguing.
6'2" Seems fair Game. I think 6'1.5" is out and I also think 6'2.5" is out. Who the hell is saying 6'4 and 6'5"? What BS is that?
thisismoe!!! said on 10/Feb/19
@Jordan87, you seem mixed up. I'm the one who originally said that Tom Welling was 6'2 when everyone else was throwing around 6'3, 6'4 and 6'5 assertions.
Jordan87 said on 22/Jan/19
@ thisismoe,
Proof? He's not over 6'2 with Rob that's for sure. What proof do you have that would override a picture of a Measured 5'8" ( 1/8") Man next to Tom? Oh you don't that's right, nevermind. Hush Hush now, look at his picture with Rob .
It's not hard to find. I'll give you a hint. If you are reading this comment, you are really close to finding the picture I am referring to ;)
Edimar184 said on 27/Dec/18
Rob could you tell me please, how tall this guy looks with Tom Welling? He claim 181cm, but I don't think so.

Editor Rob
Not sure the guy looks as tall as 181 there, but 179 maybe
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 24/Dec/18
Lets say he get measure at the doctor office in the morning around 10am almost 6'3 as he claim so he get 6'2 7/8 and he could have lost the 1/2 down at 6'2 3/8 lowest. I mean just guessing. 6'2-6'2 1/4 seem a little low. 189cm still believable.
Peter 179cm said on 23/Dec/18
Listing seems fine, although he looks more about 188cm in the pic.189 is the best guess ofcourse since he's a tall guy and 6.5 inches from bottom of nose to top of head is more common for that range.
Canson said on 28/Nov/18
“Jealous of certain celebs”. Quite humorous that you use that saying against anyone who doesn’t agree with you. You also told Joe that he was jealous of Theler. And you mention 2nd grade insults? Sounds to me like anyone who disagrees or says a celeb isn’t as tall as they’re listed is “jealous”? That sounds like fanboy talk to me Moe
Canson said on 28/Nov/18
“I actually post proof”
What type of proof?
Canson said on 28/Nov/18
@Moe: 2nd grade insults? Again you are the one who began insulting Bobby3342, Joe, and me all because we didn’t agree with you that he was that tall. I hadn’t insulted you at all prior to that. I posted Theler’s page here. Anyone is free to go to the very beginning and work their way up. They will are not only that you started the argument but how you portray yourself as childish arrogant and a know it all and then got belligerent because we didn’t modify our estimates to align with yours. So no don’t give me that anyone can see it because yours is in plain view. And just because you “claim to have met someone” are we all supposed to agree with you? Doesn’t work that way. And You even told Joe that it “is no longer up for debate”? That is what this site is for. So you’re getting on me for insulting you in retaliation to you insulting me (you actually began this whole thing)? Seems like you’re the 2nd grader because all of those insults you made to me below are a lot worse than what I said about you as I’m simply speaking the truth. You are a fanboy. Who is the 2nd grader now? Pouting just because we don’t agree with you then getting excited just because Theler says he’s 6’6? The response you made when you said Boo Yah says it all. You obviously want Theler to be a certain height whereas we do not care. We are simply saying that he does not look it. And if you didn’t realize it, I was the one who said Carmelo anthony was 6’6” in person and looked taller than theler. You even responded to that and even saw where I told Rob that I believed that Bo Burnham was taller than listed. But I get jealous? Lol you’re seriously a childish pathetic hypocrite. Again, quit ignoring this and look at Beginning of 2016 when you began insulting me just because I had my own opinion which is what this site is about. It isn’t “because Moe says he’s this height”. For all I know, you may not have even met Theler. That wouldn’t surprise me one bit.

thisismoe!!! said on 21/Nov/18
@Canson: You and your 2nd grade insults are just pathetic at this point. Just GTFO. I actually post proof. You're the one who's so jealous of certain celebs, you can't bear the thought of them being taller (namely Theler). Any sane person can see I know what I'm talking about. You and your bad arguments can beat it.
Canson said on 19/Nov/18
No Moe you’re insane. Look at your stupid comments such as trying to make Peyton Manning taller just to make Mangianello and Theler and telling others “it’s no longer up for debate”. The Boo yah only shows that you’re a fanboy. Nothing more than that.

Ud191cm said on 15/Nov/18
So is it official Rob, that you possible cannot tell apart a 6'2.75 from 6'3? And that most 6'2.75 estimated celebs are indeed 6'2.5 in person?
Editor Rob
All listings are still estimates. I think if he was measured I'd estimate with greater confidence he might measure nearer 6ft 2.5 than say 6ft 2 flat or 6ft 3.

@Dream - Kirk is very friendly and approachable. There's certain celebrities who fake friendliness, and you can pretty much tell that they're faking it, but Kirk is a naturally nice guy. Like I said before, Runyon or the Comedy Store is a great place to meet him. John Lithgow gets the top prize of all the people I've met in terms of genuinely a decent guy, but Kirk is up there.

Canson said on 2/Nov/18
@thisismoe!!: you just said it best! Internet
trolls which is exactly what you are! You once said that Tim Robbins was over 6’5 near 6’6” when the man claimed his actual height several times. Rampage was correct however. “You are a loser
troll who wastes time and energy denigrating the opinions of others”. How are you gonna “meet these people” when you don’t even work in show Biz anymore? Probably never did in the first place. I’m surprised that you were even hired in the first place seeing as how you are a cancer here attacking anyone who disagrees with your “alleged” first hand encounters with people! You’re pathetic seriously
Canson said on 29/Oct/18
@Junior: 1/4” is hard to tell. He could be that height and be 6’3 out of bed 6’2.25 at a low. That’s similar to how a guy claiming 6’2.5 will look.
thisismoe!!! said on 28/Oct/18
I like Canson just about as much as he likes me (maybe less). I have never commented on the height of a celebrity I've never met as if my speculation was fact. I actually meet these people and when I do, I always mention WHERE I met them. Unlike people like Canson who resent certain celebrities, and want to pretend said celebrities are height fakers so they can feel better about themselves. So we have people calling me a liar about Welling for years, only to find out after Welling does conventions that I was telling the truth. Whatever. Arguing this is nonsense, because internet
trolls are impervious to sense. Tim Robbins ran the Actor's Gang in Culver City where anyone could go and meet him. Derek Theler went to the LA Fitness on Hollywood BLVD for years. I know what the heck I'm talking about. But you all go ahead and listen to Canson if you want.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 24/Oct/18
I realised many actors just look strong 1/2 inch off the listing with Rob. I hardly think about Tom will be shorter than Brandon Routh. No way at all so those 6'2-6'2 1/4 guessing way too low.
TheBat said on 23/Oct/18
Very solid listing for Tom currently. He was around 6’3” when Smallville was airing on TV. Though I wish Tom returned as Superman for Supergirl instead of Tyler Hoechlin.
Zampo said on 23/Oct/18
6'2.25-6'2.5 range. I think a greater chance of him measuring nearer 6'2.25 in the afternoon. That being said, this listing seems reasonable.
Canson said on 20/Oct/18
@Dream: I didn’t like Moe at all because of the way he went about things especially on Derek Theler’s page as well as Tim Robbins’s page. You can see that Rampage even calls him out and Rampage is not usually one to do that unless provoked. Rampage is a very chill and respectful poster. However, I do agree with some of his other estimates, Welling being one of them. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Welling is actually closer to 6’2” than 6’3” (6’2.25 or 6’2 3/8 maybe). I also agreed with Moe about LL Cool J that he’s no more than 6’0”. That was clear when Michael Warren, James Worthy, Kobe and Eddie Jones were on In the House (at different times) along with Kim Wayans one of his co-stars. Moe had Padalecki at 6’4.5 which I don’t agree with. I have him at 6’4”. It’s possible with some of the taller guys that he may have had them taller than they are due to height difference from him or a difference in footwear. Logic even says with Theler that he wears thick footwear which he had on in the pic rob used for him. However Theler claims “I only wear very flat shoes”.
samson said on 12/Oct/18
I saw Tom Welling here shooting smallville here in Vancouver, I was up close to him and I'm 5'10 he didn't look that tall to me, my guess he's 6'2, also saw Rousenbuam he didn't look much over 5'11 so a inch on me
German Beryozkin said on 11/Oct/18
I would say he is legit 6’2.
Unsub 5'10 said on 11/Oct/18
He might look 6'2.25 in the pic but that is because his head is slightly tilted to one side.I can also notice he has a relaxed body posture, it's my guess he can easily pull off 6'2.5
Dream(5'9.5") said on 11/Oct/18
@Canson
Moe always knew before Rob met him.
Even Zachary Levi gives a taller impression than Tom does.
Nik said on 11/Oct/18
Well, 5'7" is pretty ordinary in the scheme of things but anyways I love the above comment "He's like, "6-2 or 6-3."! For me 6'2.5" seems a fair call for Tom's height!
Canson said on 9/Oct/18
Agreed Dream. I’ve never thought he was a legit but figured maybe weak 6’3. Really looks strong 6’2”. Funny thing is Moe said that before and nobody believed him
Dream(5'9.5") said on 8/Oct/18
@184guy2
He really does look slightly taller than Routh.
Routh’s super thick hair makes it look like their the same, but Welling looks taller. Plus, a cap doesn’t add much.
@Christian maybe Welling had footwear advantage, but he doesn’t look any shorter than Routh, really.
@Canson Welling wouldn’t be as tall as 6’3” flat or higher. That would be more like J August Richards.
184guy2 said on 5/Oct/18
@Dream
No , he don't
They look pretty much the same , like Rob said , you really need to measure them both barefoot to see who is in fact taller.
Canson said on 3/Oct/18
I figured he wasn’t a solid 6’3 but more I see, he looks a strong 6’2” vs weak 6’3”. Looks that way with Rob. That’s not half Inch over

He does edge out Brandon Route in the photos Rob linked.
Rob, would you consider 6’2 5/8ths” for Welling?
Editor Rob
In person I think it is hard to tell them apart, both I believe would measure very close. You need measurements to be sure of which might have a tiny advantage.

Unsub 5'10 said on 13/Sep/18

Editor Rob
I'm sure there would be a string of women who might volunteer to find that out.
184guy2 said on 10/Sep/18
Well Rob fun fact ... in the pic that you posted in 2017 , he looked exactly 2 inches shorter than the 6'3 3/8 kids who nowdays is about 6'4-6'4.25 and he even had less footwear . He looks a legit 6'2 , kinda surprise that he is the same range of plumber , he looks easy 6'2 also in the Wedding photo with the 186 and 184 challengers .
Editor Rob
Because the plumber I generally seen more earlier in the day, my memory of him is overall taller than what he was in the HC.
Andrea said on 10/Sep/18
Do you think he genuinely (no error) got measured 6'1.5 once, on a bad day, similarly to the plumber? It is certainly quite hard to believe that he regularly dips to that mark, given that he was measured at a solid 6'2.25 in the HC NOT directly out of bed...
How do you think Tom would stack up with him?
Editor Rob
Yes he said that, he was measured that height before and was pleasantly surprised he got over 6ft 2 flat.
Tom looks taller in person up close, although I wouldn't say an inch though.
184guy2 said on 8/Sep/18
C'mon , both looks the same thing , considering that Rob measured a 6'2.5 guy ( who became 6'2 later on the day) , it's pretty safe to say they are the same height .
Editor Rob
That challenger was 6ft 2.25 bursting a gut not that long out of bed. Normally close to 6ft 1.75-2, although he does say he got measured 6ft 1.5 many years ago and that is what he used to claim.
Rising - 174 cm said on 4/Sep/18
I was going to ask that about footwear too because Rob doesn't look to be standing completely straight while Tom is standing casually, but doesn't look to me like he has a noticeable slouch or anything.
Unsub 5'10" said on 4/Sep/18
Yes, Welling looks 1cm taller than Brandon.
berta said on 3/Sep/18
rob did you have footwear advantage because in the photo i would have thought he was no taller than 188 cm. He and routh looks the same in their photos togerther. i did think both of them was 190 cm guys but i starting to think maybe tom could be 188,5-189 and routh legit 189
Editor Rob
He had no less than me.
Nils2 said on 3/Sep/18
Once again he looks quite near 6'3.. i thought Routh would edge him after seeing this photo of Tom.
But this is a good example why 6'2.5 is a good listing.
Andrea said on 2/Sep/18
Wow, finally the two Supermans have met each other!!!
To be honest, although we can't see their footwear, Tom does look easily taller than Brandon (in both the pics), but overall I think that somewhere around 6'2.5 is believable for them both. I really don't know who I would bet on as being the taller one between the two...
Meek said on 2/Sep/18
He just had photo ops with Brandon Routh. They seem about the same height. Tom usually wears vans shoes but I’m not sure what shoes Brandon was wearing.

If someone wakes up at virtually 6'3.5", there's virtually no chance they're 6'2" flat throughout the day.
Drake35 said on 28/Aug/18
Might be 6 feet and 3/8ths inches upon waking. Most of the day however, 6'2" flat is about it. Arguments claiming more or less than that are simply absurd.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 28/Aug/18
I wonder Tom went to his doctor office morning
Busting a Gut measure at 6'2 7/8 (190.2) so he consistently saying he almost 6'3 and he was atually 6'2 5/8 and came before bed maybe 6'2 3/8 (189.9) certainly tiny bit taller than someone like Dax Shepard who was more like a strong 6'2 1/4.
Andrea said on 25/Aug/18
Well, even if he might dip to 6'2 flat at an extreme low, that really doesn't matter because that only happens under rare circumstances. It's like that study they conducted about the average height loss of football players after a match, which turned out to be 0.7-0.8 cms. Although it can be interesting to know how much you can lose under those extreme circumstances (even if I'm sure it would be a nightmare for certain posters on here), I certainly don't count that as your true height.
If Tom is about 189 at his normal low (which is very believable), then 6'2.5 (or 6'2.25 at the very worst) is a good shout for him.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 23/Aug/18
6'2-6'2.25" arguement for Tom Welling will have leave Alan Ritchson and Justin Hartley down to 6'1.5-6'1.75" range. I did go with Rob feeling since his the one met celebrities more often and took pictures standing close to them. If Tom Welling going to be just 189cm in person by Rob's eye then he is this tall. I wouldn't believe 190cm anymore. Routh would be the same too. Except for 6'2-6'3 claimed Geoff Stults who hold more chance to be measured at 6'2 5/8 than Welling and Routh.
Unsub 5'10 said on 22/Aug/18
He is definitely 6'2.5, just a bit taller than Justin Hartley.
Canson said on 22/Aug/18
@Rob: if you measured him in the afternoon hours and he’d be very close to 189, maybe 6’2.25 is a better fit
Slipdogg said on 21/Aug/18
@Crunchberries said on 16/Aug/18
6'2.5" seems accurate, but he may seem taller during to big feet (size 14), big hands, long arms, etc. Really hit some kind of genetic lottery.
I completely agree with your sentiments,Tom did hit the genetic lottery.The guy is over 6'2,has dark hair and light-coloured eyes(Green🍀🍀🍀).
I once worked as a photographer for a modelling organisation (part-time in college) and male models who were tall,dark-haired and had light coloured were EXTREMELY rare.In fact the only guy who had dark hair and green eyes was only 5'9.
Tom Welling would have easily become a successful model if he wanted to...Remember the guy was the face of the CW network from 2006-2011.I'm glad he decided to pursue acting cause it suits him better.
Andrea said on 21/Aug/18
Rob, do you think he could dip to 6'2 flat on a very bad day, kinda similar to how the plumber managed to get measured just about 6'1.5 (even if you yourself said that he generally is much nearer 6'2 than 6'1.5)?
Editor Rob
I think he after a long day maybe 6ft 2.25 or 6ft 2 flat after a heavy session in the gym, but I believe if I measured him he'd be close to 189 during the afternoon on normal occasions.

I honestly never met one who had all the three qualifications.Tom was easily the face of the CW network(2006-2011).
If Tom Welling would have pursued a modelling career,he would have been become the face of a huge brand.I'm he didn't though.Acting suits him much better.
Unsub 5'10 said on 19/Aug/18
According to the height chart, he looks more like 6'2.25 which does not mean I'm ruling out 6'2.5
AAAA said on 17/Aug/18
I always pegged him anywhere from 189-191. 6’2.25-6’3.25. I think that would be his daily range. I’ve also always thought he had a small head for his height,which made him look proportionally taller than others his height with big heads. Kinda like in superhero comics how all the hero’s are 9 heads tall. There is an old pic of him, Schneider, and Annette O’Toole in front of a barn where this is pretty clearly shown. Similar to how a man and woman of identical height. The woman is usually perceived as taller because her head is shorter, chin is higher. Etc.

Why would some people "steal" your photos with height charts, Rob? 😕
Anyway, if the height chart is "correct", he indeed doesn't look any less than 6'2 here (although not much over it either). To be honest, I thought your hair gave a bit less than what the 5'8 line suggests...

Well, they have kindly agreed to stop. I put myself tiny bit over 5ft 8 to compare.
aknawkneemoose said on 14/Aug/18
rob i don't know what it is about his posture nowadays. in smallville he always stood tall, enough to square up with john schneider. i know he beefed up a bit after smallville and it seemed like that's when he started looking a bit smaller. could have done one too many deadlifts? is it even possible for him to have lost height at 41?
Editor Rob
In person he still looks a tall guy, with good posture, just 25 pounds heavier.
If he had herniated discs or any serious back injury, that can always cause early loss, but I would be surprised if he really lost any height at all.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 13/Aug/18
Surprise with Welling downgrade 1/4 by Rob. He can really look 1/2 inch taller than Justin Hartley in Smallville.

viper said on 12/Aug/18
Some said he was 6-5.
grizz said on 12/Aug/18
There is no way he lost any height in his 40s. I mean, if Tom Cruise hadn't lost more than a 0.25in (he's 56 and constantly suffering injuries from doing stunts), if Sylvester Stallone hadn't lost more than 1in (72 y.o. constantly injuried while shooting movies), then I see no argument for this guy losing any of it. He didn't have any back related injuries, he isn't a weightlifting champ and he has a solid posture.
@abcde, I agree with your listing. Based on that, the most desirable height for men would be the 185 - 193 range with the 1st half of that range being the optimum height IMO (185-189). If you hit 187-8 cm, you're golden.
Mickie said on 10/Aug/18
While shrinking by early 40s is possible, I'd guess the overwhelming majority don't shrink by any appreciable amount at this age. Maybe someone who is a trucker, smoker, overweight, into heavy weightlifting, and genetic predisposition to it will ship a cm or 2. But probably not Tom Welling.

Editor Rob
This might be how many view height, plus or minus a cm here or there.
Tom Welling falls into a comfortably tall range. In Hollywood he certainly could claim 6ft 3 or 4 to people and they will believe him.

Judging by the comments,Tom seems to be very popular...I'm willing to bet a small fortune that this will be the most popular page this week.He's going to beat another Tom(whose Tall(5'7),dark and handsome)Cruise.
He legitmately looks like a tall,muscular guy no wonder he's castmates on Smallville overstate his height.
Well he wasn't the most popular page this week.Tom Cruise is still number one...Tom Welling is number 4.Pretty popular more than Justin Bieber.
Nils2 said on 9/Aug/18
He did not lose any height yet that's kinda ridiculous to assume.
Btw a guy at my gym who trained and competed in powerlifting for over 40 years and is today 61 years old did not lose any height. If anything i believe it helped him maintain a solid posture.
For someone to lose height in his early 40s, if it's not caused by hunched back is extremely rare.
Canson said on 9/Aug/18
@Viper: it’s definitely more possible to lose height even at that age. It may not be a lot maybe just 1/2”. Jimbob a poster here has even said he’s lost half inch in his late 30s to early 40s
viper said on 8/Aug/18
He's only 41. Better chance you win 500 million lottery
Celebheights 6'1.5" said on 8/Aug/18
@Viper Some people can lose height in their 40s if they’ve done a lot of heavy weight lifting, with it being powerful enough to fracture their discs in the spine, or if they engage into some extremely intense physical activities in the long term. Sometimes one’s daily habits, or their genetics can cause for someone to shrink a noticeable amount in height as well in their 40s. I’m not convinced that this is the case for Tom Welling, however.
viper said on 8/Aug/18
Oh come on. Hardly anyone loses any height in their 40s
fish said on 7/Aug/18
He is in his 40s now..so my guess would be..
Peak: 6'2.75"
Current: 6'2.25-6.2.5"
Same as the Rock, he could habe lost 1/2 inch due to his heavy weight, keep in mind this guy is probably above 225lbs=100kg for the last 10-12 years (maybe even bigger).

solid 189cm guy
viper said on 6/Aug/18
He looks a full 6-2 in the pic, and the height chart shows it
Nils2 said on 6/Aug/18
6'2 flat is possible i think.. he didn't look over 6'2 with Stephen Amell either.
In past i thought he looked more closer to 6'3 but Hartley could be 6'2, Schneider 6'2.5, Rosenbaum 5'11 and Welling had footwear advantage on all.
Also Tom ellis can't be full 6'3 after seeing this photo..
At the end of the day maybe 6'2.5 is decent listing overall for Welling but he surely could measure under it.
Dream(5'9.5") said on 6/Aug/18
Actually, the more I look at it, the more I'm convinced 6'2.5" is solid.
Celebheights 6'1.5 said on 5/Aug/18
He easily looks to be under 6’2” with the height chart up above (if you were to remove the hat), but we can all agree that he’s not under 6’2”. Is 6’2 1/4” at all possible, Rob?
Editor Rob
I don't think a cap like that would any more than half inch, but he still seemed over 6ft 2 flat.
Andrea said on 4/Aug/18
Could you add the height chart then? 😊
Editor Rob
Well I'll make an exception for Tom.
Dream(5'9.5 said on 4/Aug/18
So, Rob. J August would definitely be taller than Tom Welling? If so, I have no problem with that!
Editor Rob
I would estimate Richards as a bit taller in person.
Israel-6'2 said on 4/Aug/18
tom should wake up easily 6'3.25. example I agree with 1.90.6 and I will sleep with 1.87.3 but I say that I have 1.88, that 1.89.2 should be his final height, so to the statement of 6'3, but Rob Who do you think is greater brandon or tom?
Andrea said on 4/Aug/18
Hmm. So he basically looks just around 6'1.5 here?
Again, how tall do you think he'd look next to the plumber, under similar circumstances?
Editor Rob
I wouldn't say he looked under 6ft 2 in the photo.
viper said on 4/Aug/18
You can't help yourself can you Andrea
Andrea said on 3/Aug/18
Rob, how much do you think his cap adds to the top of his head? He really does look just under 6'2 here, INCLUDING all of it...
Of course, I would never guess him that short though. As I said (BEFORE you met him in person), 6'2.25 is the absolute lowest I can see him at. That being said, how do you think he'd stack up next to someone like the plumber from the HC on a "non-plumbing day"?
Editor Rob
I'd say close to half an inch, I mean if he had it off, his hair may well have looked similar range as a cap...
Andrea said on 3/Aug/18
"viper said on 1/Aug/18
ONE OF THE FEW I'VE BEEN WRONG ON. Thought he was no more than 6-1ish.
It's a different story when you see the person up close"
LOL, you're a very optimistic person, aren't you, viper? 😊
But well, at least you now admit that your 6'1ish "estimate" (if you can call it that way) was BS, even if there was certainly no need for Rob to meet him to realize that...

Celebheights 6'1.5" said on 3/Aug/18
@Jordan87 Lol, I’m shocked that we’re agreeing here. Anyhow, how tall would you guess that Brandon Routh is? I would say that Tom Welling certainly can’t be 6’2.5” if Brandon is 6’2.5” himself. Especially if Rob says that there is no difference in footwear between him and Tom in the above photo.
viper said on 2/Aug/18
IMO could be as low as 6-2.25. This listing is fine though

He seemed friendly that day with people.
spainmen192cm said on 2/Aug/18
Finally Rob! I dont think he is over this listing to be honest. Could he even be 6ft2.25?
Editor Rob
Well I can understand estimates from 6ft 2.25 up to 2.75. If he measured outwith that zone I'd be surprised....unless it's out of bed, and I'm sure he clears 6ft 3 then.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Aug/18
Rob, maybe 6ft2⅝?
Editor Rob
Like for any listing, you could argue above or below it, when you are talking small fractions like that. I think he is honest saying he was almost 6ft 3. It's just the definition of 'almost' for one man might be 1/4, another man 1/2.
berta said on 2/Aug/18
he also looks pretty heavy here like 105 kg maybe?
berta said on 2/Aug/18
i though he looked like a 190 guy over the years but after seeing this photo i guess 189 is better. One photo isnt enough to judge height from but if rob thought 189 is better then i believe him. 188 is to short and 191 is to mutch. he is either 189 ore 190.

I did see Zachary briefly, but he still seemed a decent 6ft 3, I think the 3.25 is always possible still but I don't know if he really could measure 6ft 4.
John didn't seem much different than Tom, it's possible he's 6ft 2.5 now.

So no longer 6'2.75?Could have thought he was closer to 6'3 than many persons,especially John Schneider.Interesting to see that in person height brings some surprises.In fact he looked very close to 6'3 next to legit 6'4 Padalecki
Editor Rob
Well John can look 6ft 2.5 range too, at least in recent years.
Mickie said on 1/Aug/18
6'2.5" is a really good listing, especially here with Rob. Is a tall guy, but doesn't look a big 190 cm + ... He's 6'2.5" in my book.

Not sure if this is a good photo to judge. I agree with Andrea, Looks about 6'2 here at most (unless he posture was more relaxed).

Wow! Rob, it's absolutley amazing photo, respect. I think he's more 6'2.25" than 6'2.5".
Dream(5'9.5 said on 1/Aug/18
Rob, I notice that your old listings are quite the most accurate listings.
You originally had Tom at this, changed it to 6'2.75", and changed it back to 6'2.5" when you met him in person.
Who gave a taller impression, Thomas F. Wilson or Tom Welling.
Editor Rob
Wilson does have a pretty big head in person, longer than Tom's, but Wilson still seemed a solid 6ft 2 and change range at least, I don't know if there is much between those 2 Tom's.
Almost 6ft 3 can cover 6ft 2.5-2.75, it's like Routh...he eventually came out with the 6ft 2.5 but earlier in 2006 was called almost 6ft 3, which he may well have told a journalist.
Dream(5'9.5") said on 1/Aug/18
Weird thing is...
He still looks shorter than Brandon Routh.
Jordan87 said on 1/Aug/18
When Lined Up Next to Brandon Routh's Picture, He is actually Shorter than Brandon I think. His Eye Level isn't above 5'10 which points to him being 6'2, maybe 6'2.25" Tops.

Anyway Tom Welling looks like a big dude(@Editor Rob,How much do you think he weighed???),I mean look how broad his chest and shoulders no wonder he played Superman,A NFL Quarterback and a Secret Service Agent.He looks imposing(WELL OVER 6'2) but approachable all at the same time.
Editor Rob
He might weigh 220-30 range. In this photo I am around 164 pounds.

This listing seems a decent and honest one! It is clear that Tom is 6 ft 2 and change, I will offer him 6'2.5"!
Andrea said on 1/Aug/18
Great, Rob! 🤩🤩🤩
To be fair, he doesn't look over 6'2 here, but 6'2.5 is quite believable and probably the best fit overall. That being said, what's the lowest you can see him measuring at?
How was he in person?
I still can't believe you finally met him! 😭😭😭
Editor Rob
Well, as a Smallville fan myself I was glad he finally started attending events and to manage to add his photo to the site. He seemed relaxed at this event and interacting with fans.
For me, he seemed over 6ft 2 but not as tall as 6ft 3, I would go with 2.5 personally for him.
Celebheights 6'1.5 said on 1/Aug/18
He doesn’t look as tall as Brandon Routh does. Did Tom Welling have less footwear than you did?

Our footwear was within a few mm that day.

Cool that u finally met him. Comfortably over 6'2 but not as near 6'3 as i thought.
I'll admit that the young fanboy inside me may have fooled my perception ;)
184guy said on 31/Jul/18
@Rob
Now that he is no more on the spotlight he does that....
Did you seen him up close and was able to guess his height ?
Editor Rob
Yes, I will put Tom up very soon.
in fact as I type this I will do so.
In person and beside a few other folk that weekend I think I would settle on Tom looking like a guy who was around 6ft 2.5 range, I believe if measured he would be in that range.
184guy said on 30/Jul/18
@Rob
Have you seen Tom this weekend in London ?
Editor Rob
yeah he's went from avoiding them during all of smallville to now accepting that cons aren't that bad really, folk are there as your fans and willing to pay for an auto or photo.
Some of these actors are earning quarter of a million pounds for a weekend work at a convention.

Agreco said on 24/Jul/18
Strong 6’2”
Canson said on 21/Jul/18
@Junior: there is always a chance that he dips to the mark. 6’2.5-.75 could cover “about 6’3”. He may have measured that at some stage early morning and be 6’2.25 like Andrea said. On the flip side, there is a chance that the 6’2.5-.75 is his low. There was a poster named Moe who claimed to have met him and guessed 6’2” in person.
Andrea said on 18/Jul/18
Yeah, DaMan, at this point, me too, I think that anywhere around 6'2.5 (6'2.25-6'2.75) is possible for him, even if he really struggles to look even 6'2 in more than one picture with Amell for some reason. Back to Smallville, he actually looked much nearer 6'3 than 6'2, but he also was in quite big boots most of the time, so he did have a decent footwear advantage over the majority of the cast. Coincidentally, I've seen an old episode on TV the other day, the one where Alan Ritchson first appeared, if I'm not mistaken, and although he certainly looked noticeably taller than Alan (no less than 3 cms), he also had a noticeable footwear advantage over him, probably not much less than an inch, considering that he was in his usual 1.5 inches or so boots versus Alan's quite thin flip-flops. So although I still think that he's taller than both Alan and Justin (who I doubt is any less than 6'2, regardless of how tall he looks with Rob), maybe it's not by that much after all. Hopefully, Rob will meet him soon, so we'll see...
DaMan said on 18/Jul/18
I’ve always pegged Welling @ 6’2.5”. He was dwarfed by Kane, looks really close to Schneider and clearly edges 6’1.5”-6’1.75” guys like Hartley, which is the height Hartley looks in his photo with Rob.
Tom honestly looks a flat 6’2” at best with Amell, but that could really be anything without seeing the feet.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 5/Jul/18
@Andrea there is no chance he is only 6'2.25" looking at him next to 6'2.25" Justin Hartley a solid half inch differences most of time. 6'2.5" can be argue at lowest. Tom and Hartley both same age at 41 so neither one of them are losing height yet. I just Tom had some tendency to wear flat sneakers that could make him look as low as 6'2 if the other actor had more footwear advantage.
Andrea said on 4/Jul/18
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. I've read some very interesting names at that event, although Tom certainly remains the most interesting one, from my point of view. Let's just cross the fingers... 🤞🤞🤞
It will certainly be interesting to see how tall he looks in person. I must say that those pics with Amell kinda destabilized me, but I agree with Nils2. Although there's probably a good chance he's shorter than 6'2.75, the absolute lowest I can see him at is 6'2.25. And even that mark can certainly seem too low at the time of Smallville...
Editor Rob
There are instances he is looking 6ft 2-2.5 range lately, but we'll see, sometimes people as we know appear taller/shorter in some photos than they do up close.
Andrea said on 29/Jun/18
Rob, are you finally going to meet him? 😊
Editor Rob
If he turns up at a convention I will of course meet him...I will hope he doesn't cancel!
Canson said on 10/Jun/18
“Almost 6’3” could mean that he measured a hair under in the morning or the afternoon. He is similar to a guy like Idris Elba, although I think he may edge Idris. But taking the two scenarios, he could measure 6’2.5-.75 in the afternoon or in the morning and just be 6’2.25 or 3/8. He doesn’t look as low as a flat 6’2
Andrea said on 28/May/18
Well, there's no doubt he's taller than Stephen. The question is how much. I would have said easily 2 inches, but it is certainly hard to believe there is as much as that from those pictures they took at those events. I mean, if I didn't know Tom and hadn't seen anything else of him, I probably wouldn't have guessed him over 6'2 with Stephen. But again, I'm still not sure about Stephen's footwear in those photos. I know Tom wasn't in big shoes:

@Junior: always a chance at 6’2.5 because that won’t look any different from 6’2 5/8, but I really couldn’t go lower than that. A weak 6’3 seems almost a good fit when he’s guessed by people at 6’2/6’3 as often as he is. He would measure how Rob has him listed even if he drops to 6’2.5. I could see an easy 6’3-6’3.25 out of bed

It's just the camera angle fooling, i think. Routh is also struggling to look 6'2 with Amell.
Click Here
99% of the pictures i have seen, Welling and Routh appears around 190cm, so reckon they are.
Andrea said on 23/Apr/18
Yeah, he can really look even barely 6'2 at that event for some reason. If he was older, I could believe he's lost something, but, although he looks a lot different than how he did on Smallville, he's only 40, so I doubt he has lost more than a few mms, IF he really did...
At the time of Smallville, I think he could easily pull off looking near 6'3. I mean, he could really look near 4 inches taller than Michael Rosenbaum (who I doubt is any less than 5'11), comfortably taller than genuine 6'2 guys such as Alan Ritchson and Justin Hartley, no shorter than John Schneider, etc. Now, it's known fact that he often wore quite big boots on the show which can certainly have made him appear taller than he is at times, but 6'2 flat does seem too low. Of course I wouldn't rule out something like 6'2.5, but I'd be surprised if he was much under that. I hope that Rob manages to meet him sooner or later...
moe! said on 17/Apr/18
I told you all for years that Tom is not 6'3 and that I met him. And you all didnt believe. I met Tom and Brandon. Brandon Routh is taller. Tom is 6'2. Just look at the pics of Amell next to Tom compared to that with Routh. Also Mike Rosenbaum is 5'10, maybe a weak 5'11. Saw Mike on Hollywood Blvd a few years back
Bobby said on 15/Apr/18
He used to have a listing of 6'4 when he was on Smallville, guess he was never quite that tall, but I can see a legit 6'3 for this guy. Lowest he'd measure is 6'2.5 I'd say. So, a weak 6'3 guy, but him saying 6'2 flat is downgrading himself by almost an inch, he's more likely to look 6'3 than 6'2 at 190cm.
Nils2 said on 14/Apr/18
Hm maybe his small head and boots makes him look a legit 6'3 at times..
The pics with Stephen are actually great to draw a conclusion from.
I think 6'2.5 is still likely but it's hard to believe the current listing there's just no chance of 2 inch difference from several pics with Stephen.
6'2.5 is still accurate to his claim anyways and was the old listing i believe.
The absolute lowest i could see is 6'2.25 for Tom.

Tom looks no more then 6'2 with Stephen in that pic..
Probably something to do with the shoes.
Derk said on 2/Apr/18
OK I was freaked out about Tom's photos with Stephen Amell, but I had a look at some of their other photos from that event and there's no need to panic lol. It seems to be the camera's fault because Mike Rosenbaum also got a few pictures with Tom and he barely looks shorter than him, than he should. Since Amell is taller than Rosenbaum he'd obviously look closer to Welling, and he does... or rather almost identical. But again, it seems to be because of the camera. You can argue Tom might have lost a bit more height that day which is fine, but its mainly the camera from what I've seen.
Oh and I checked Tom and Amell's footwear. Both are wearing vans, no boot trickery from Amell.

Really??? What do you mean by "I couldn't risk any money on"? Is too expensive? 🙁
As for that picture with Stephen, yeah, Tom looks surprisingly not much taller than him... When you see him with Michael, though, I think he can still look at least 3 good inches taller than him:

A new convention company, but a few red flags for me to think it might not be guaranteed to go ahead.
It's early may and they had only sold about 60 packages out of 570 by last week.
So they ditched their expensive pricing model for other packages I suppose to try to make it work...
Train+Hotel+ticket just a lot of money for a few guests from lucifer basically, well Welling of course is a big name, I'm disappointed another organiser didn't try to get him first!

That's a great idea, Rob, recovering all the older messages for every page! Although I wonder who is willing to read every single one of them... 😅
Speaking of Tom, I wouldn't have expected him to be so discussed in the past!!! Hell, about 3000 comments? That's the kind of number you'd expect for "big" celebrities like Sly, Brad Pitt or Justin Bieber!
That being said, I must say that it is quite entertaining to see viper trying to convince people that Tom was no more than 6'1 and possibly even 6'0, LMFAO! 😂😂😂

There was still a chunk of comments that are lost forever from certain years, but I have recovered as much as possible.
They are now there, should anybody want to 'go deep' into an actor and read all their comments.
There's a few surprising 'comment totals' now for some actors...the unfortunate thing with the web is that over time Link-Rot becomes a big issue.
URL site structures change, services go behind paywalls, or cease to exist...or the expired domains get bought up and act as redirects to other sites/ads. So a lot of old links I'd never even bother clicking as they'll go nowhere.
I kept the URL structure on celebheights star pages the same since 2004, though it was a mistake actually - I had forgotten to include a lowercase function and so all the star names were like First-Last-id - this was never the intention, they were supposed to be first-last-id 😀

It's hard to believe Welling is less then 6'3 sometimes.
KH said on 20/Feb/18
Might have a quarter inch on Ellis although in those pictures we can't see there shoes and Ellis is not standing quite as straight in either shot. 6'3 seems right to me. Looks like he has put on a little weight.
Andrew111 said on 4/Feb/18
In this picture he looks like a 6'3/6'4 guy
Click Here
anyone saying he's under that height is wrong, in every picture he towers over everybody my best guess is that he is a 1'91/ 1'93 no less (at least in Smallville) now a days I think he is a 1'89/1'90 guy. Any thoughts?

In this video:

Tom Welling and Tom Ellis have a sit down interview at 0:16 and 2:35.Tom Ellis keeps mentioning that he's and Tom Welling are both 6'3.It's kinda fitting that the guy who played Superman is 6'3 and humble and the guy who plays Lucifer is 6'3 and kinda smug about it...
I don't know why,but I've met plenty of tall guys,and some of them will CONSTANTLY remind you how tall they are...e.g..Tom Ellis...while the other fraction of tall guys,will downplay the fact that they are tall...e.g.Tom Welling.
Dark Lord said on 12/Dec/17
I am 6'-3.25" on a tall day and he is just a bit shorter than me, but we are both about 6-4 in dress shoes. I would be willing to say a half inch on average.
Although in lucifer tom Ellis as lucifer says he is 6-4. I don't buy it, just shorter than me.
Alex 6'3 said on 24/Nov/17
He looks a weak 190 cm, he could be a 6'3 in the morning, around 189 cm the rest of the day, with a good 188 cm at his lowest during dinner time. So, 189 cm (6'2.5) should be right.
SD-5'8(172CM) said on 19/Nov/17
@Chippah said on 21/Oct/17 I agree with you he has to be 6'3...at least in the morning
Link to Inside of Tom Welling by Michael Rosenbaum
Click Here And they make several references to height...
Tom Welling's height references= 3:57,4:05,6:14,19:18-19:33. 5'3 in his teens and his height was a hindrance to his modelling career...
Michael Rosenbaum's height references = 4:34,11:43,13:47. 4'11 in his teens and he's dad is/was 6'5
Tom Welling was 5'3 in his early teens and Michael Rosenbaum was 4'11 in his early teens...It's ironic that both Clark Kent(Superman) and Lex Luthor grew a whole foot through their teens...I only grew 2 inches...how I wish it was 5 to 7 inches...
Most guys Tom Welling's height would claim 6'5
Chippah said on 21/Oct/17
This is a post I'm cross referencing - I initially posted this on Allison Mack's page - since I feel it's pertinent here too:
I recently discovered a video Allison Mack posted on her own YouTube channel that dates back to 2007 (yep, 10 years ago, time flies).
It's a Q&A titled 'Ask Allison: Part 2'. And on the latter part of this very video she was asked - by a fan - 'how tall she was' and she then promptly went on to say 'I'm five foot five' and that they made her wear 4 inch heels on Smallville as well as walk on some sort of ~5 inch high platform whenever she had a scene with Tom Welling, who - in her own words - 'is a giant, like really, really ostentatiously tall'
Here's the time stamped Youtube link:
Click Here
In other words, I still think Tom might really stand at 6'3 tall, at least in the morning.
And if there are any Smallville fans in here, Tom Welling recently went on Michael Rosenbaum's podcast where they had a chat about the show that lasted over an hour. It's called 'Inside Michael Rosenbaum' but I'm sure if you just type 'Tom Welling, Michael Rosenbaum' on Youtube you should find it, and yes, it's on video, but they're sat on a sofa so height comparisons are not optimal here. But there's a photo of the two on Rosenbaum's Instagram that was taken after the podcast was done. I still think he too is a little taller than 5'11.
Nils said on 15/Sep/17
lol Tom welling looks over 6'3 with Tom ellis and rest of cast.
Will be interesting to see when season 3 starts
Sammy Derrick said on 4/Sep/17
In SMALLVILLE season 9 episode 11, he was listed as 6'3 with green eyes and black hair...
Click Here
He consistently looked this height i.e. 6'3
Mimi said on 22/Aug/17
Nice face and a towering height. A dream guy for most girls out there.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Aug/17
He'd probably measure a decent 192cm out of bed
Andrea said on 3/Aug/17
Rob, can you add Sam Jones III aka Pete? He had an important and regular role in the first seasons... Plus he took part to a few other tv shows, apparently!
He generally gets listed at 5'8 but, as you say at the top of this page, he probably isn't much over 5'7. To be honest, he can look no more than 5-6 inches shorter than Tom in some scenes but I guess that they used apple boxes for him at times.
Here he looks a good amount shorter than Michael:

Editor Rob
didn't realise I never actually listed him, but I should.
Matt6'5 said on 27/Jul/17
I'd say 6'3 on the dot.
Ten said on 24/Jul/17
Looks slightly taller next to Tom Ellis.
highlysuspect said on 13/Jul/17
Superboy I grew 4 inches from 16-18/19 but some of my friends didn't grow more than 1 inch in that same time frame. My brother is 20 and grew around 1.5 inches in the past year. Kind of a crapshoot
Frost said on 13/Jul/17
Randy you think the man drops over 2 inches in a day?
Dingle said on 12/Jul/17
I believe that tom was 6"3 at one point rob,I think he is the flattest of 6"3s, like he was 190.6cm or there about, he definitely reached it as a younger man if not now!
Randy said on 10/Jul/17
I would say maybe 193 right out of bed then after a long day of shooting maybe 187 at bedtime.
shiva182cms said on 1/Jul/17
I'd like to see him more movies, he'd definitely be a great actor with his stats
TJE said on 15/Jun/17
It's because he got more into directing than acting.
shiva 181 cms said on 15/Jun/17
Rob,why do you think he isnt getting offers in movies
Editor Rob
I don't know, maybe he's not actively looking. I'm sure he's very rich from doing a good 10 years of Smallville!
He's got an ideal height for looking a big prescence in film.
Dingle said on 8/Jun/17
He's super tall!!
Bee123 said on 14/May/17
You only find a celeb being honest about his height when he's over 6 foot
Ben said on 11/May/17
Superboy, you'll probably grow to 5'8"-5'9"
Sammy Derrick said on 26/Apr/17
Happy 40th Birthday to the 6'3 actor Tom Welling.
I'd like to see him in big movie 🎬 roles.
S.J.H said on 8/Mar/17
Lol if tom is 6'3 and over then peak john schneider would be nearly 6'4 and david hasselhoff would be close to 6'5 which is impossible. Tom is probably just 190cm in the morning and drop to 189cm range. Remember rob list him 6'2.5 at first before upgrade that could highly be tom before bed height
Keary said on 6/Mar/17
When I lived in Vancouver about 10 years ago I saw Welling outside jogging a few times. I don't know if he lived nearby or if he simply liked the area because it had trails for running. One time when I was getting ready to go running I saw a tall guy with a dark beard walk up next to me and start stretching. Something about him seemed familiar so I took a second look and I instantly recognized that it was Welling.
I'm 5'11" and he towered over me much in the same way as my 6'3" brother towers over me. We were both wearing running shoes with similar sized thick cushy heels so he gained no advantage there. I felt that Welling was at least half an inch taller than my brother. He also had huge feet. I wear a 10.5 shoe and his shoe had to be at least a size 14. The other things I noticed was that he had big hands and a big chest. He's a big all-around guy. In person he looks much bigger than he did on that show Smallville.
Mark(5'9.25 said on 13/Feb/17
@Johan
I wish I was a 6 footer though! I guess you're right about my legit uncle claiming 6'3" since he's the same mark as Tom Welling in his peak at night.
Johan said on 13/Feb/17
@Mark(5'9.25")
My idea on Imperial is that if you're a 6'2.25" guy for instance you drop the quarter and just claim 6'2"
If you're 6'2.75" then its fair to round up to 6'3".
Metric is far more simple in this respect.
Mark(5'9.25") said on 11/Feb/17
Rob, this is my legit Uncle's height at late night and he regularly gets mistaken for 6'3". Could he just go ahead and claim 6'3"?
berta said on 11/Feb/17
i think he is about 191,5 in the morning and shrink to 190 in the evening
S.J.H said on 5/Feb/17
I remember rob use to list tom welling at 6'2.5 and he could be this mark by lowest no surprise. Not everyone measure themselve at evening and go with it and most people just go with their doctor measure them in the morning session check up and claims it
Yes yes said on 4/Feb/17
Wow! Kryptonians are very tall! Or what do you say Rob? ;)
A strong 6'2.75 for Tom, might be 6'3.
Closest to actor to Superman's real height so far! Clark Kent is listed as 6'3 and 235 pounds on DC Comics database.
shiva181cms said on 1/Feb/17
He would definetely fall a bit below 190cms after a busy day say 12hrs standing on his feet or after a workout in the evening may it be 1-3mm or 3-6mm ,but not below 189cms though as Rob lists late afternoon heights so still in the 190-190.5 range listing 6'3 is still better
berta said on 31/Jan/17
he get my respect for being so honest about his height. many in his shoes would have claimed 191-193.
Nils said on 20/Jan/17
I just rewatched early seasons and since celebheights increased my interest in well celeb heights i looked closely.
He actaully looks taller then John in most scenes, even by an inch in some scenes. He looks 1-2 inches taller then the guy who plays whitney in most scenes.
He easily has 4 inches on rosenbaum and close to 4 inches on glover.
This guys height is a mysteri to me. If he came out and claimed over 6'3 i would believe him. But i don't get why he would claim under his mark so he probably is around 190 cm and something is up with the footwear.
S.J.H said on 15/Jan/17
Counting down 10 years from 2017 now to see if tom welling shrinking below 190cm. Lol
nathan said on 22/Dec/16
Best actor ever to play Clark Kent"superman" I miss seeing him on smallville...
abcd said on 14/Dec/16
189 or 190 cm
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Nov/16
I doubt he falls under 190cm even after 4 days without sleep.
berta said on 29/Oct/16
with perfect posture he looke 191 so i think 190 is perfect listing
Mark said on 19/Oct/16
I would still put Toni Welling at a solid 6'3"
shiva 181 cms said on 15/Sep/16
Actually what I was Implying was Ryan Reynolds came up with 6'1-2 comment but looks like a legit 6'2 guy and Rob gave him 6'2 likewise Tom too came up with about 6'3 Mark but looks like a legit 6'3 but Rob listed him a bit shy of 6'3 anyways he looks a bit above 6'3 than below so he can be listed as 6'3
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Sep/16
Welling would definitely be a bit taller than Reynolds.
joe### said on 11/Sep/16
I'm sure that Tom is higher than reynolds
shiva 181 cms said on 9/Jul/16
Rob you can give him 6'3 mark without hesitation hes appeared that mark he might have measured 6'2.75 range and got up with almost 6'3 mark like reynolds you gave him 6'2
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Jul/16
Strong 190cm barefoot, more like. Pretty much 6ft3 on the nose.
Alex said on 25/Jun/16
Tom I bet is around 189,5 or a weak 190 cm barefoot, nothing more.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Jun/16
'on a good day in his early 20's he may well have been near that'
Rob, are you implying that the guy may have dropped a fraction?
Editor Rob
on a good day when his discs were at their peak and able to rehydrate fully, he may well have reached a tiny bit taller than he could at near 40.
Ice said on 15/Jun/16
ROB would he really measure as high as 193 cm right out of bed ?
Editor Rob
on a good day in his early 20's he may well have been near that, but of course we are guessing. One man might shrink 3/4 inch, another 1.25 inch. The taller you are though, the potential is there for a bit more shrinkage, with a longer spine.
Mark said on 13/May/16
Definitely a solid 6'3" in the morning.
Though he would be edged out by Michael Shannon.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5/May/16
Out of bed: 192-193cm
Before bed: 190-191cm
Might be 190.2cm before bed which is ⅛in off 6ft3. All I'll say is that there are a number of guys listed here at 6ft3 that I can't see taller than this guy.
John said on 18/Apr/16
Solid 190 cm. Nothing less.
Johno said on 11/Apr/16
In the 6'2-range.
Johan said on 11/Apr/16
Nothing under 190 cm.
S.J.H said on 10/Apr/16
In metric 189.5-190.3cm anywhere this range would be welling height
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 6/Apr/16
Jordan....182cm?!
You're out of your mind.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Mar/16
He's taller than both Just Hartley and Alan Ritchson (both 6ft2 range) so anything below this we can and should rule out. I think even he could above this listing but still not an exact 6ft3, like 6ft2⅞
Rick said on 6/Mar/16
Ok but..
If you compare bautista and Tom..you see bautista taller than Tom..
Can y help me?
Alex said on 7/Feb/16
In Smallville he was used to wear boots, 2.5-3 cm range, and he looked a solid 190 cm or little more. His barefoot height should be 188-189 cm, nothing less.
joe### said on 6/Jan/16
looks 190-191 with benjamin walker
Sammy Derrick said on 6/Jan/16

From 0:55-1:14=The subtitles say 190cm,but judging from Kelly's reaction and his remark, he sounds like a full 6'3!!!
John said on 1/Jan/16
In the pics I've seen with his ex I think it's reasonable to assume she's in the 5'8 to 5'9 range.
Andrea said on 29/Nov/15
Rob, how tall do you think Tom's ex wife is? She looks quite tall, maybe around 6 inches shorter?
Editor Rob
she could look anywhere in 5ft 8-9 range
Robbin said on 25/Nov/15
I ever thought he was 6'4 then i realise how other actors add up an inch of claim. Most 6'4 actors were same height as welling.
Sammy Derrick said on 23/Nov/15
I was a MASSIVE fan of SMALLVILLE, and Tom Welling(Clark Kent) was never towered by ANYBODY.His fellow co-stars said that he always had a big guy vibe...I think he should be up-graded to 6'3(191cm!!!)I have proof why...
WWE Superstar KANE(Aldar)-6'7 towered him..(but not as much as one would a except)
Click Here -In this image Kane appears massive...
Click Here - In this behind the scenes image Tom Welling is like Randy Orton(6'4) when standing next to Kane.
Compared to Alan Ritchson (6'2)
Click Here They appear almost similar in height, but Tom edges Alan out and he is slouching...
Click Here In this image however Tom is clearly bigger and taller..
Compared to Justin Hartley(6'2)
Click Here If you look closely his shoulder level it is higher than Justin's...
The only time he was towered in an awkward way was in Cheaper By The Dozen
Click Here by Jared Paladecki(6'4), but in an intreview, Tom said that the producers wanted a guy who would tower Tom and still have a teenager's look...
Tom should be a solid 6'3 guy...most people say it,he looks it and he isn't that insecure guy to lie about his height..
What do you think Rob?
Editor Rob
his almost 6ft 3 claim seems like that of a guy who was measured at that.
John said on 12/Nov/15
I think that Welling easily holds this listing and can edge other supposedly 6'3 actors that inflate their height.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Nov/15
"Tom Welling's height is 6ft 2⅞in (190.182cm)"
Might sound a little whammy but he can look over 6ft3 more than under but Rob still ain't gonna give him that nice rounded figure.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Nov/15
Rob, do you think he could measure 6ft3¾(192cm) out of bed?
Editor Rob
yes, that is within the realms of believability.
Andrea said on 6/Nov/15
Rob, since you retrieved a lot of old comments from the past from a lot of pages, are there any of Tom's page too?
There might be some interesting quotes...
Editor Rob
I only limit comments to about 250
John said on 24/Oct/15
Odd,because I watched every episode of Smallville and Tom clearly edged out legit 6'2 guys. To say he's 6'2 at best isn't very likely as there's a better chance he clears 6'2. John Schneider is listed at 6'3 and he and Tom were very close and at times Tom appeared to have the edge. So 6'2 at best, I doubt it.
joe @@ said on 23/Oct/15
Darren510 said on 21/Oct/15

Wellings looks like a solid 6'3 to me. I think more often than not and for the most of the day he can hold the upper average of 6'3. Looks like the lead singer from the All American Rejects too haha. I remembered they even performed on the show.
John said on 12/Oct/15
They purposely wanted Batista to appear taller to seem more intimidating.
joe@@ said on 6/Oct/15
I'm not so sure Tom also had his boots
Judd ISR said on 5/Oct/15
I think he would edge actors like a young Sean Connery,
Ben Affleck and Ryan Reynolds, he would be as tall as
Chris Hemsworth but he would be edged by Jeff Goldblum, John Corbett and Vincent d'Onofrio.
6'3" is a good estimate for him...
