Smooth, one of the stupidest posts I've seen. This site isn't for rounding up or down, yeah sure you can do that when speaking to someone but this site is to pin point what the celebs actual height is.
I'm 5'11.75 and I do say 6ft (depending on who im talking to) but there is a difference, by myself I can pull it off, but most of the time beside a legit 6ft guy you can see the difference, especially if your the same height or taller.
and if you actually think your the same height as 6'2 guys your either taller then you think or the 6'2 guy isn't really 6'2

Yeah Hugh, he can look that tall but his boots are huge. I think that 5-11.5 is perfect for Vin.

I see Rob downgraded him. I agree that he's not quite 6 ft. And I doubt that De Niro is as low as 5'8" flat, but what's interesting is that Vin has only 3 inches on him and Vin is closer to the camera. Plus we can't see if Vin is wearing boots.
I'd bet that Vin is 5'11.5", his huge boots got him listed at 6'2" regularly.

Yeah, I really didn't get the vibe of Diesel being over 5'11" either when I met him. Just a few random picks which caught attention, that I thought I'd share:
Diesel with 6ft Timothy Olyphant in A Man Apart (fabulous acting from Diesel in this film!). Olyphant is slightly taller than Diesel in their scenes together. Olyphant wore flats throughout the film. Diesel wore his signature big-thread boots.Click Here

it depends on how tall Walker is too, he looks pretty tall in those pictures Boxing fighter posted. Walkers real height and Vins boots make it really difficult to pin down his height.

On the photos you posted Boxing Fighter Vin is 3-4" shorter than Paul and Vin is
again wearing big boots while Paul is in normal shoes.So there is a bunch of
evidence that Vin is no more than 5'10-5'10 1/2(177cm-179cm).He really looks
very tall but he is just an average height guy.

I totally agree with JTRoN, I also never agreed with the 5ft10 crap that people usually say, but he was looking very short near Walker even with high shoes!
I always thought Vin Diesel as being 5ft11, but now, I believe he could be a lot more 5ft10 than 6ft.

Perhaps Diesel belongs to the 6 foot ego complex group that Stallone and Pitt are in which explains his huge footwear? All men would appear to be under 6 foot barefoot and it seems to shatter their egos that they are, so compensate with huge boots? At least Diesel can pull off 6'1" more comfortably than the other two though. I wonder how on earth a guy who is little more than 5'11" can have been listed at 6'4" or 6'2" for that matter.

Walker looks 6'2.5" to me, he is noticeably tall he really isn't so far off 6'3" as people might think, he does claim this. This would put Diesel at 5'11.5" which I think he is. Remember Walker is clearly secure with his height and always wears flat sneakers even to premieres and Vin is always wearing huge boots.

That's what I was hoping JTRoN, especially since Ross apparently has an interest in height himself as I've heard he's brought up the subject a lot. It would have been even worse if Vin claimed 6'2" which he is or was officially listed at.

wow Vin looks even shorter in those pictures B Fighter posted, even if Walker was 6'3 that would still put Vin around 5'11-6

Come on guys, if Paul Walker is 6ft2 Vin diesel cannot be taller than 5ft11.
He does look at least 2" (or 3") shorter than walker BUT he is using massive boots! Just look at the picture.
Walker shoes looks very normal to me.
I always thought he was 5ft11, but after seeing this photos I think he is even shorter.

I was hoping that Ross would bring up height because I've heard that he has an interest in height. It would have been funny if Vin claimed 6'1" like he did on the radio show or 6'2" like he was officially listed at. It would have been funny to see Jonathan's reaction because he's 6'1.5" himself and around 2 inches taller than Vin.

I don't see many similarities between Vin and Telly Savalas except that they're both bald and wore height enhancing footwear almost 24/7.
I agree Doug, weak 6'0" or maybe more like 5'11.5".

Haha 6'4" is hilarious. "big heeled bone-crushing boots" is an understatement. The man is a weak 6' in my view. A likely 182cm everywhere I've seen him.

5'11" sound about right....not too short but not too tall...a fairly decent height...even 5'10" is a fairly decent height...especially with shoes. If Vin was short, which he is not, it would be very obvious....examples..cruise,pacino,hoffman...etc..etc.

I didn't realise that Jonathon Ross was 6' 1.5", I thought he was 6' 1". I still think Vin looks about two inches shorter than Ross (watch when they shake hands at the end) which makes him about 5' 11.5".

Agreed. Couldn't tell how big his boots were on Ross but they were chunky.
Ended up about 1" shorter than 6"1 Ross in them anyway. All evidence seems to point to 5"11.5 at the minute.

Actually Glenn considering the size of his boots I could easily see him going from 5'11.5" to 6'2" in them. That makes sense to me. He does look bigger than some 5'11" flat guys like Mickey Rourke, but shorter than some legit 6 footers considering the boots he wears.

Guy with bodybuilders build often look taller because he gives impression of big.
178cm is not short for Vin or for any guy.With big boots and 182cm he would be
much bigger,maybe 188-189cm and he is not that tall.
Range of 177-179cm seems right(5'10 1/2)+ big boots 6'1.
In the "Pacifier" he is 10 inches shorter than Brad Garrett.

I never seen Vin looking 6'0ish unless he's in some type of big boots. On TV for the superbowl I saw him next to Vin and he was taller than Vin by at least an inch and Paul was in these pretty flat looking sneakers compared to Vin's chunky looking boots/shoes.

I agree with Brad on this one. Max 5'11" for Vin but not as short as 5'10" though. Of all the movies of his that i have enjoyed and studied his height in i have never once thought he was 6' barefoot or taller. Strong 5'11" at most which is still a great height for a male, i wouldn't be complaining considering im 5'5.5" soaking wet! lol.

If she's 5'10 barefoot which I can see then yea 6'1 max in heels because those aren't huge heels. And that may be actually over an inch difference like 1.5 inches. Points back to Vin being 5'11 which may be dead on.

5'10(178Cm) and 2.5(6.3cm) inch shoes = 6.05(184cm)height.Average guy has 0.5 inch
up to 1 inch shoes and hes got 2.5 inch shoes so that makes him even with people
with normal shoes who are really 5'11 or just below 6'0.
Take away his big boots and you have 5'10 guy.

Maybe a full 6 foot is a bit much, after all one of the rare times we've seen him in dress shoes he was shorter than his 5'10" listed girlfriend who was wearing heels. She would have been about 6'1" max in her heels and he was about an inch shorter.

I'd say more like 5'11" or 5'11.5" for Vin and with those massive 3/3.5 inch boots he can pass for quite a bit taller.
With these boots he's giving Robert Downey Jr. a run for his money.

The 5'10" stuff for Vin is pretty absurd, but more 5'11ish, 5'11.5" max would explain the Norris picture and how he looked so short next to his girlfriend in just about the only picture I could find of him in dress shoes.

No I didn't alex but you're a legit 6'0 and i'm sorry if it makes everyone mad but Vin is 5'11 tops, he's not 6'0. And he may be in the 5'10 range, so i'm sure you'd be taller.
I'd guess not clay since he was shorter than Malkovich who is the same height as alex, logic would tell one the answer.

Complex, you saw pics of me on here? I posted some over time being on here.
James, I knew Angle was going to be a bit shorter but I figured an inch shorter since I thought he was 5'11 but winded up being 2 inches less. No big deal because you'll have other celebs who will be a good couple inches shorter than you'd expect. You'll have guys who will believe Kane is 7'0 and wind up meeting him and see he's a good couple inches shorter.

I just saw Paul Walker and Vin side by side standing on NBC as part of the superbowl pre game stuff. Walker only looked an inch to maybe 1.5 inches taller BUT he looked to have flatter type sneakers like converse type while Vin looked to have some sort of boot on.
James, I would think I'd be a bit taller but you never know.

I've seen as much as 2-2.5 inches between Vin and Paul. Paul I dont put more than 6'1 1/2. That puts Vin at 5'11.

I'm a big Vin Diesel fan. The guy is a great action hero. He plays the same loud and aggressive take charge/kick ass character in every movie. Now realize this: Every action hero has a certain expectation to be "larger than life." So as a result many of them will do everything they can to look their best. Often this includes adding muscle and tone to their body, wearing clothing that showcases or enhances their physique and even footwear that enhances their height. Look, its all about image. -Vin Diesel never appears to be a short guy in his movies, nor does he ever look overly tall. I would say that Vin is likely 5'11" barefoot, with a solid build. I myself am 6'2" (barefoot) and I have worked out(4 to 5 days a week)for the past 8 years. I weigh 225 pounds. My bodyfat was last calculated to be 10% (when I went through police college). I am never confused with being 5'10" or 5'11". Often people tend to "boost" me to 6'3", though I am only 6'2". Once a man is 6 feet tall or more, he never is confused with being 5'10" unless he hangs out with 7 foot tall NBA stars or Big Bird. LOL! -Watch Knock Around Guys, Fast and the Furious or Triple X. Vin NEVER appears overly tall, he often looks average height,but with a solid build. It is Vin's extra muscle (compared to the average man)that makes people image that he "must be larger". -Whether Vin Diesel is 5'11" barefoot or 6 feet plus with his boots, it does not take away from the great roles he has played that have made him a living legend.

Glenn, true it can go the other way too looking 2-3 inches shorter but normally its 2-3 inches taller. I've been guessed at 6'4 once and 5'8 once.

I think it's the right time for downgrade Vin to 5'11 max.

I get what you mean, sorta. Oh, and I only use halfs or whole numbers too (except in my name) but I can see why most people would say 1/4 or 3/4. I mean, if you are really insecure with your height, you want to sound taller right? So explaining that you are "4 foot 11 and three quarters" makes you feel taller, right? Even just a quarter of an inch will make you feel taller, although there is no difference really. I guess if you are 4 foot 11 and three quarters, you should just say 5 feet.

It actually doesn't sound rude 5 ft 3.2, because I do agree, no one cares and no one should care. But I swear the moment I posted my height i'd prolly get, that's why you think such and such is shorter and things of that sort. I will say i'm not short, I just base heights on observation and i'm likely wrong on some but i don't want ppl thinkin i'm tryin' to downgrade them to my height or downgrade them because im taller, so I just keep it on the dl. :) I do agree alex 1/4 to 3/4 would be annonying, I stick to halfs or whole numbers :D

I'm not a fan of fractions either though at times I've claimed my height in fractions. I can see using the 1/2 but 1/4 and 3/4 can be annoying.

Complex, sounds fair enough to not wanna say your height. With your example it would make sense to claim 7'0 unless you prefer to use fractions. Say 7'0.5 out of bed and 6'11.75 at the lowest. Would you claim 7'0? I sure would in that situation.
Or this. 6'2 out of bed and 6'1.25 evening. Would you round down and say 6'1 or take 6'1.25. In that case I'd go ahead and say 6'1.5 since 6'1.5 would be for a good couple hours of the day at least.

Well alex generally I don't like to state my height just for the fact that ppl might say stuff like "oh that's why you always downgrade such and such cuz you want him to be your height" or "you just wanna say you're taller than such n such". so to make sure ppl don't think I have ulterior motives (which I don't), I keep my height on the downlow, at least until ppl here are mature enough to realize that i'm basing on research and observation and not jealousy or anything like that. But i'll use a fake height measurement and tell you what I claim (falsly) to give you an idea.
Say I measure 7'0.75 morning height, 7'0.25 evening, and 7'0 flat late evening right before bed, I would just claim 7'0, granted i'm not that tall, lol! But it would sound wierd to claim 7' 0.75 or 7'0.25 and the reason I have a problem with morning height is because if I said i'm 7'1, that's a lie cuz i'd never reach that height, see what I mean. I think if ppl are gonna claim morning height, they need to atvvery least hit that height and not inflate. Don't say you're 5'7 if in the morning you are 5'6.75, cuz you never even hit that, see what I mean. Maybe i just look at it wierd tho.

Complex, I bet some days you'll be about 1/4 inch at your lowest than other days. Do you go by a late night measuring or something like at 8pm or later?
Normally I am no lower than 6'0 by 6pm or later but at times I have gotten as low as 5'11.75 by the night and as high as 6'1 right out of bed. Sometimes I may hit my lowest hight at some point in the afternoon though.

Yeah but sometimes it seems like I downgrade more than that because I was judging on the lowest possible height that someone could go. Like you for instance alex I would of pegged at 6'0 but now i'm realizing that you're actually taller than that all day long so if I went by you're lowest of 6'0 then technically i'm downgrading you because most of the day you're more than that. I never saw it like that before but now it makes sense. I'm gonna continue to claim my lowest but i'm gonna try to judge celebs based on wat I think they are around lunchtime, it'll take some gettin used to but i'm gonna try :)

Complex, if you're downgrading is may only be 1/4 inch max since most of the time your evening height will be your lowest except for times being on your feet all day where it may dip just below your usual low.

I respect yours too glenn...and i'm not trying to be mean by judging their lowest heights I just do that because that's what I claim for me although after reading alex's last post i'm thinkin that maybe i'm downgrading even myself. But Glenn I really do think if I went by let's say lunchtime height then you would be right on most, I really do, I do disagree on some of your estimates and in the same token you disagree with some of mine, that's natural. But I don't just go by evening height I go by lowest height and now i'm starting to see that maybe that's a little unfair, so i'ma slowly try to start judging their mid-day heights but it may take me a while to adjust as it's just a habit to state their lowest heights as I do mine! Hope that clears things up guys.

Complex, I claim my evening height too which is my lowest height but I dont agree on people claiming their very lowest height which will only happen at certain times for example being on their feet all day, doing heavy lifting, etc then measuring themselves at 8PM or later. If you measure yourself in the evening 5-7PM on a day you're more relaxing at home or not on your feet all day then thats your real lowest height. Know what I mean?
I dont claim my out of bed height because I am only that height for like 30 mins tops then my morning height is only for a little time too. Midday seems fair since midday height you will maintain for a good few hours at least.

Lol nah brad, i'm not gonna write a book on vin's height. Personally I think 5'11 max for him but doesn't concern me too much, he may very well be 6'0. I just think at 6'0 in the boots vin wears...he'd look an easy 6'2-6'3.
Alex I do agree that it's fair that rob goes by mid-day height. I have a tendancy (bad habit) (if you will) of judging celebs by their lowest possible heights, same as I do and i'm thinking of discussing what I think their mid-day heights likely are and maybe alot of ppl would be on the same page as me. But some ppl here are also arguing their morning heights when personally I don't think that's anyone's true height, it's a temporary height.

With all this max and lowest height I do think its fair how Rob does take the midday height which some people will say if your real height because you're not at your max but also not at your lowest.

No problem with going by evening height but I wouldn't suggest going by the very bare minimum meaning a height you'll only be lowest here and there like after being on your feet for hours during the day.

Norris & Vin both wear similar added height on their tootsies. Look at the photo. Comprende? Glenn & Complex need to write a book on Vin. Vin wears Frankensteiners because he wants to be 6'. He'd be close to 6' 3" in the custom whoppers at 6'.

Complex said on 12/Jan/09
Fair enough Glenn but it's ignorant to say that I wouldn't admitted to meeting celebs if I really had because in reality I wouldn't, just like i've never said my height on here cuz I don't want ppl to think my observations are based on my height, (ie. someone who is 5'6 trying to downgrade everyone to feel better about their height) And Glenn I don't downgrade and do agree with you and others like Rising alot of the time.
When I found out ones like you and Rising claim morning heights I realized we actually don't disagree that much cuz I go by lowest height, like Rob does, so that's what I do for celebs. So if I say Bob is 5'10 and ya'll say 5'11 we may be disagreeing by a quarter inch since ya'll do morning height and I evening height.
But I do see where it could be aggrivating but saying that you know a celebs height for sure just cuz you met them doesn't add up, yes I do agree you would know better than most since you have infact met them, but I have a friend that if you met you would say he's an easy 6'1 when in reality he's a strong 5'10 lift wearer and wears lifts so well you can literally never tell, ever, so ppl who meet him and don't know would say he's around 6'0 to 6'1 when reality is, in barefeet he's lower. If you met them all while they were in barefeet then I would think (tho it would still be hard) but I would think you could get a round-about estimate. I've never had someone guess my exact height, even while i'm standing in front of them barefoot, ppl always say i'm taller than I am (likely because they inflate they're own heights or because I look taller cuz i'm lean). But it's constant and guessing someone's EXACT height is hard, a round about estimate is safest to say and if someone disagrees and inch or two well that's really not as much as some ppl think. It's hard to tell an inch difference and 2 inches isn't much harder to tell either.
All I'm saying Glenn is other ppl have met these celebs too and guess them shorter and some guess taller, it's hard to nail down accurate height. Like if you read headlines of Beckham and Dicaprio it says journalists have met them and say beckham is 5'11 if that and Dicaprio is 5'10 if that, so if I used your logic I could say, Well a journalist that actually met them said it and met them in the flesh so they must be that height. Just like Depp's headline that says "even tho he's only 5'7". Height is tricky and hard to nail down even in the flesh, especially since there are different types of height, evening, mid-day, morning, out of bed, that's why we all have our opinions.
Fair enough Glenn but it's ignorant to say that I wouldn't admitted to meeting celebs if I really had because in reality I wouldn't, just like i've never said my height on here cuz I don't want ppl to think my observations are based on my height, (ie. someone who is 5'6 trying to downgrade everyone to feel better about their height) And Glenn I don't downgrade and do agree with you and others like Rising alot of the time.
When I found out ones like you and Rising claim morning heights I realized we actually don't disagree that much cuz I go by lowest height, like Rob does, so that's what I do for celebs. So if I say Bob is 5'10 and ya'll say 5'11 we may be disagreeing by a quarter inch since ya'll do morning height and I evening height.
But I do see where it could be aggrivating but saying that you know a celebs height for sure just cuz you met them doesn't add up, yes I do agree you would know better than most since you have infact met them, but I have a friend that if you met you would say he's an easy 6'1 when in reality he's a strong 5'10 lift wearer and wears lifts so well you can literally never tell, ever, so ppl who meet him and don't know would say he's around 6'0 to 6'1 when reality is, in barefeet he's lower. If you met them all while they were in barefeet then I would think (tho it would still be hard) but I would think you could get a round-about estimate. I've never had someone guess my exact height, even while i'm standing in front of them barefoot, ppl always say i'm taller than I am (likely because they inflate they're own heights or because I look taller cuz i'm lean).

When meeting someone it can still be tough to be very precise but seeing them up close should give you a pretty good estimate. Also when you are within a few inches taller or shorter than them its easier. Well they can be a lot shorter and you can still get a good estimate but if they're too much taller its tough. For me when someone gets 4-5 inches taller its tough to get a very good estimate, sometimes even 3 inches taller than you it can be tough.

Glenn I understand and I wasn't taking a shot at you, I will however say you're last statement was very ignorant because first of all, yes you have met alot of celebs but sometimes you take that for granted and assume we haven't met any. For example you said I have never seen him. How could you possibly know that?? I'm just curious cuz I doubt you know what I look like, how tall I am, where I live, or my real name even so how could you possibly know i've never seen Vin?
Now don't get me wrong cuz I mean no disrespect, you have seen alot of these guys and you have alot of them right, all I'm saying is it's hard to guage an exact height for anyone, I can look at someone and think "he's about 5'9" when really he may be 5'8, 5'8.75, 5'9.25 I mean it's hard to be precise. And I do admire you, you've met alot of celebs. But it's really degrading when you boast saying yu've met celebs and we haven't so therefore we must not know their true heights and you would know better than us since you've met them..and on top of that, you don't know that we haven't met them. Like you said Me or your friend never saw him and neither has anyone here, how could u possible know that? There could be ppl here that's met him, has pictures and just doesn't wanna plaster their face on the internet. I mean no disrespect i'm just saying, we all have our opinions but sometimes you shoot them down saying we must be wrong cuz you ASSUME we haven't seen them. I mean think bout it, that's the equivelent of me saying "i've seen matt damon and i know his height and ya'll don't cuz ya'll have never seen him so ya'lls opinions don't matter" when I don't even know who's seen him or not. This is a forum and we're allowed our opinions. Heck I may be wrong, but i'm judging evening height for one and I think ya'll shoot too high sometimes, just like ya'll think I shoot low, I think ya'll shoot high, mainly due to lifts,boots,elevators, and the fact that ppl always claim their MAX!
honestly think about how many ppl here claim their max, almost the whole site does, why would celebs be any different, celebs would actually be worse cuz their in the public eye and would want to look taller. That's all i'm saying is give us a chance.
I mean honestly if Rob said "only ppl who have met the celebs can comment on their heights." well then in that case Glenn you and a few others might be the only ones commenting but I ask you this, how much fun would that be? There would be no debate. I mean picture vin diesel's page and take every name that's posted on here and make them all Glenn, then ask yourself how much fun it would be if only you posted since you've met them? I mean we're allowed opinions too I hope..

That's a good example of why I think Chuck Norris is atleast 5-9.
If Chuck was in cowboy boots with 2 inch heels and 1 inch lifts inside and Vin was in 1 inch dress shoes then Chuck would be 6-0 in cowboy boots and Vin at half an inch or an inch taller would be 6-0.5 or 6-1 in dress shoes making him 5-11.5 or 6-0 barefoot.
Plus it's only one picture and illusions can happen in pictures.

I highly doubt Vin ever reaches 6'2, Glenn if you're 5'8 then it would be hard to tell that Vin hit 6'2. To me once there is a 4 inch difference it's hard to distinguish an exact height, you can get an estimate, but it's hard to be precise. I'm just saying the height difference woulda been too much to be certain. But if he's 6'2 then Barry Pepper is 6'1.5 and Seth Green is 5'8 and John Malkovich is 6'3 or 6'4 cuz Malkovich was taller than Diesel in KnockAround guys. Vin might be a weak 5'11..or a strong 5'11, but he's definately not 6'0 flat!
Glenn wouldn't you say that 5'8.5 Norris woulda had to have some pretty big lifts and cowboy boots to reach the same height as the alleged "6'2" Diesel that you saw?? Even if Vin were 6'0 for a 5'8.5 guy to reach that height would be pretty amazing, Cuz if Vin were 6'0 barefoot, then in shoes he'd be over. But even if Vin were 6'0 barefoot, then for 5'8.5 Norris to hit that height, he'd have to really cram them cowboys boots!

Well I dunno about the norris-diesel stuff but he sure looked 1' tops of 5'9-5'10 barry pepper and that was in his huge boots.
But I will say that Norris is listed 5'8.5, not 5'9 and how do we know he's in cowboy boots with lifts?? Did you make that up Rising? Cuz you can't see their feet in the picture. If Vin were 5'10 and Norris in Cowboy boots that would make sense, but Norris bein 5'8.5 and Vin 6'0 wouldn't make sense, those would have to be some MONSTER boots!

Norris is likely 5-9 as Glenn said and in cowboy boots with lifts while Vin is probably in dress shoes.

I'm not that familiar with Paul Walker in general so I won't try to guess his height.
The only thing I can think of ever placing Vin under 6-0 are the Chuck Norris picture, Glenn's first sighting that put him at 5-11, 5-11.5 and the recent pictures of Vin and his girlfriend.
I'm sorry but 3 things aren't enough. And 2 of those times he gave the illusion of 5-11, 5-11.5 which isn't far off from 6 feet.
Rob has him listed right.

Complex, yea but I think taking mid day-late afternoon is very fair to take because late evening you can sometimes dip a bit below your lowest height.

I don't think Pacino cares outside of movie sets. Those things Rising posted by the police car are monsters with the wedge hidden. I bet he gets fed up with people slinging "Scarface" stuff for him to sign but that's where the cheese is for dealers. I need him on my original Scarface poster. I got most of other leads to sign it. His autograph is like Costner's, an initial.

So you think Vin Diesel and Chuck Norris are about the same height Brad?
I'm not sure that Pacino doesn't care about his height though.

Even at 68 his sneakers still look swollen. He wore lifts in the Godfather films, big heels in ...And Justice For All, huge heels in Scarface, huge heels in the Devil's Advocate. Pacino obviously trys to look taller, but when you're 5-5 you'll look short even in big heels.

Burt Reynolds wore the most ridiculous footwear ever...gigantic heels, stilts and even wedged up sneakers of hilarious kind that only Roger Daltrey/Downey Jr. have nuggets to wear. Downey Jr. is next, those sneaker things are funny. Vin can do stunts as Madonna can dance and run around for 2+ hours in 4" customs and look like she's in dancer pumps. Norris & Vin have similar size lift in inches. Both wear big ones. At 6' 1" plus Vin boot crushers he'd own Norris big time. He'd be 6' 3" every single day. Vin has serious height issues in his brain like Sly does...funny how Pacino & Hoffman don't really care.

Funny post Brad and I agree that Vin's footwear can look silly sometimes but Robert Downey Jr. owns the title of most ridiculous footwear.I can't think of another celebrity that would try stuffing 2 inch lifts into normal sneakers not built for lifts. He pretty much falls out of his shoes at times!
Burt Reynolds also looked like he was walking on stilts in the 70's.
I'm curious though about what you mean when you say him and Norris cancel eachother out.

The problem to me with Vin being more like 5ft10 or shorter, is how the hell does he perform all his stunts and action scenes while running around in supposed 3-4" lifts? I don't dount he might pull out some bigger heels for events and talkshows where he might be made to look shorter(Conan O'Brien for example), but for movies that seems pretty far-fetched.
In the Norris pic I'm guessing he's wearing lifts and Diesel is in more normal footwear. I don't know... it's strange?! If Norris is 5ft8.5 with a 2+ inch heeled cowboy boot and a possible 1" lift inside, he'd be 5ft11.5 or so, and Vin looks to have about a 0.5" or so on Norris.
5ft11 minimum for Diesel sounds about right, and 6ft1-6ft2 in his 'special' boots.

We can't see their footwear and Vin is half an inch taller. Norris is about 5-9 and for all we know he could be in his 3 inch cowboy boot/lift combo. Vin could be in dress shoes too.
If Norris is 5-9 and in his cowboy boots/lifts and Vin is 5-11.5 and in normal shoes then that makes sense in that picture.

Well, Rising Force, fun to read your patronising reply.
I don't "claim" his 6'1" height is evidence he is only 5'10", just offering to show how the difference can be achieved. I don't know if he is personally claiming 6'1" or not, having only what I've read on here to go by. I have no idea whether he measures himself in boots and then adds an inch, if you read my post properly you'll see I was suggesting that's how it could add up.
However I would refer to your post of 17 December where you state you think he is 6' in bare feet:
"Complex, learn to read. I said he can appear that height in boots. I think he's 6 foot barefoot."
He patently cannot be six foot barefoot as he only just achieves around that height in lifts. If you generously say there is only one inch of height(but probably more) between him and Paul Walker in the photo I linked to in my last post, and if you allow that Paul is 6'2", then you can easily see how Vin is only 5'10" -ish.
Which in itself is all assumption. I prefer to believe my brother (5'8") who spent some time with him in the course of his work, and could see for himself that Vin was only scraping around 6' because of his big boots. But anyone with even the tiniest sense of size and proportion can tell by watching any of his movies, that he's not six foot - or is that just a "female" thing? Sorry, my turn to be patronising!

So you say his 6-1 claim is evidence that he's 5-10? That makes no sense. How would you know that he'd measure himself in boots and then add an inch? His 6-1 claim is really irrelevant to how tall he his because he isn't 6-1 and we have no idea where he got the 6-1 figure from.
He could be giving himself an inch or 2 over his barefoot, he could have measured himself in some kind of footwear or he could have just made up the 6-1 figure and got it from nowhere.

I already have a really low body % with my veins always sticking out. The problem is I'm really small in general, although to get a build like Sly's that actually might be a blessing in disguise. He got skinny with a really low body fat % and put on muscle ounce by ounce. That's what I'd like to do. The problem for me is genetics, Sly at his thinnest in his adult life was 155....I've never been close to that.
I think he got too big in Rambo 3, he added 20 pounds of solid muscle onto his Rambo 2 build.
I'd never want to have a build like Vin honestly. I'd rather have a slimmer athletic build even like Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon 1.
Kurt Russell must have worked out like a madman for Solider too. At 46 he transformed his body and he was really ripped but still lean. He looked much better than Vin too.

Vin has barely ANY definition if you ask me. His body fat must be over 10 % probably around 12-13%. Sly in Rocky III was around 3.8 % which already a bit unhealthy. You shouldn't go below 4 %.

Personally i'm into the more thin builds, like Pitt from fight club, but leung is right, reynolds in blade trinity or amityville horror even had a very solid build, very ripped. Vin isn't as much as a ripped guy but he does have rockets for arms, that's what makes him look so big, is his arms. Rambo was shredded in Rambo 2 but a little too much for the way i would want to look, when veins start poking out, it's a little much, but i agree that low body fat percentage is essential in a good build.

Rambo was shredded in Rambo 2 but a little too much for the way i would want to look, when veins start poking out, it's a little much, but i agree that low body fat percentage is essential in a good build.

I agree Leung. Sly in Rambo 2 is what I'd want to look like. His body fat % is low and he's lean but he's ripped.

He trained with Franco Columbu for that movie and it showed.
Vin Diesel has nowhere near that much definition.

Vin is just a big strong guy, his physique is nothing special.

He is the most built guy i have ever seen. He has the build of a 6 footer. He is ripped and built. In all his movies, he looks like a 6 footer.

Rising Force I can read and you said he looks like a legit 6'2-6'3 guy in boots, if someone were a legit 6'2-6'3, then there a legit 6'2-6'3, if they look that height "in boots" then saying "legit" would't make sense. Legit means they are legitamately that height. You said he looks like a legit 6'2-6'3 guy in boots, you're wording was confusing, it woulda been better to say he looks 6'2-6'3 in boots but when you say the words "legit 6'2-6'3 guy" whether you say boots or not ppl assume you are saying "legit 6'2-6'3 guy". A legit 6'2 6'3 guy can wear boots too, we coulda took it as he were a legit 6'2,6'3 guy that wears boots and reaches higher. But non-the-less he's not 6'0. 5'11 I could buy, 5'10 too. 6'0 iswishful thinking...
I meant when wearing the boots he looks like a legit 6'2" guy meaning he reaches atleast 6'3" in them because a legit 6'2" guy(Samuel L Jackson) would be 6'3" in normal shoes and Vin was atleast as tall as him in those pictures, maybe taller.
I don't rule out Vin's boots giving near 4" but still there's no way he's under 5'11".

Lol brad, great saying "tread of a firestone 14incher". Vin is 5'10 or in that region (evening). Knockaround guys, he's 0.5 inches taller than Barry Pepper & That's in his huge boots, I've heard anything from flat 5'9 for Barry Pepper to 5'10 max, so take it for what it's worth.

So Brad do you think he's around 5ft10, and gets 4 inches of lift in his boots? That seems a little extreme! He was around the same height as Paul Walker(6ft2) in TFATF, and Walker was wearing Converse All-Stars with 0.5" heel to Vin's big boots. I can see him getting maybe 2.5" in lift from his custom boots, but that's about it. The guy would be barely able to walk let alone run and perform stunts in 4" heeled Frankenstein boots!
5ft11 barefoot and 6ft1+ seems about as low as I'd go for Vin.

Ed hasn't seen Vin with Chuck Norris who lives in cowboy boots. Vin must have found a cobbler fixing him up with giant custom wedges in 2" heeled cowboy boots. I wonder if he's falling forward with each step. I wonder if people know they are sick of him in Munster boots with tread off a Firestone 14 incher.

I can see 5ft11-6ft for Vin, and near 6ft2 in his boots! These 5ft9-5ft10 claims really seem a little low for the guy. It's obvious he likes to be taller, hence the giant heeled boots he's always seen with, but I have a hard time seeing him under 5ft11.

Glenn, I still think he is between 180cm and 182cm and just under 6'.With Vin always wearing those chunky boots it is really hard to guage his barefoot height. My exactly 6' friend met him in a club when he was wearing what appeared to be dress shoes and he looked 183cm-184cm. Only an estimate of course but food for thought.

Rising Force Vin at a legit 6'2-6'3 really is one of the funnier things i've heard on this site, that would make Paul Walker like 6'5-6'6 and Samuel L. Jackson in that case would also be like 6'6. He's 5'10-5'10.5, in huge boots with lifts prolly hits 6'0 or slightly over. He was taller than 5'9 something Barry Pepper by 0.5-1 inch and that's in his hefty boots!! Vin @ legit 6'2-6'3 is crazy, legit means those would be his evening heights, so if that were true rising force then you're saying it's possible that he's a legit 6'3 and in the morning would be about 6'3.75, thats getting absurd. 5'11 max & that's generous. Of course im refering to barefoot evening height.

I'm sorry but Vin never gives the impression of 6'3 or 6'4, if ppl are assuming cuz he's built and always plays the tough guy in movies therefore he must be 6'3 or 6'4 then that just doesn't make sense. Before I was concerned with heights I woulda thought him to be taller cuz of his build and the movies he plays in generally are in his favor height was, but after comparison to walker, jackson, and 5'9ish-5'10max barry pepper, 5'10 is certainly possible. Maybe he's 5'10 barefoot, 6'0 in his boots and in his hugest boots with lifts might graze 6'1. I mean he was 0.5 inch max taller than 5'9-5'10 barry pepper and that was with him in boots and pepper in casual. Makes me wonder if he doesn't go a tad under 5'10 in the evening! Either way he's far from 6'0 barefoot!

I've added this comment before on here but it seems to have dropped off. My brother was assistant manager at The Strand theatre in London back in 2002, just after XXX came out Vin went to watch Dame Judi Dench at that theatre. My brother, who is 5'9", had the job of meeting, greeting and showing him to his seat, and spent quite some time with him. He said Vin was barely much taller than him, and was smaller than he appears on screen. I'm afraid, RisingForce, that Vin is actually quite a few hairs, if not a whole wig, under 5'11". There were several gossipy articles in UK daily papers around that time, all along the lines of "what Hollywood action star isn't as tall as he says" and reporting that staff at Vin's hotel were saying his shoes had seriously large lifts (he had left them outside the door for cleaning ...)

This really makes me question Diesel. Diesel was also under Malkovich listed at 6'0 but could be less, I haven't really did too much research on Malkovich but Diesel at the very best time of the day could be 5'11, but 5'10 range is better for him. Like I said, w/o his boots, he might be under Pepper! The boots were huge! He also looked small in Triple X compared to Jackson and pretty much everyone, lol! There's a club scene where they go to throw Diesel out of the room and two big guys stand up to bounce him out and Diesel looks extremely small compared to them, not muscle small cuz he's built, but definately not 6'0!

Ok 5'10 is not a stretch, obviously you guys haven't watched knockaround guys, Vin is no more than a quarter inch, half inch max over questionable 5'10 barry pepper and 5'10 andy davoli. And keep in mind he wears his trademark boots in the film, this really makes me wonder...
Check this, Diesel in his usual monster boots, 5'9ish-5'10 max barry pepper plus diesel has road advantage, plenty through-out they movie he was no more than 1' taller than pepper if that.

Seriously I doubt he hits 5'11 much less 6'0. I would but just under 5'11,like 5'10.75, but that's the most.
***Oh and about this "why would a 5'10 guy claim 6'1" well we can drop that, reason 1 he's a star, reason 2, everyone inflates and I swear I know ppl that inflate as much as four inches. Matter a fact I have a cousin, claims 5'10, he's 5'6 prolly evening, 5'6.5 on a good day. Now someone couldn't argue that my cousin must be atleast 5'9 otherwise he wouldn't claim that high cuz obviously he's lying by more than that.
I know another guy, 5'11 maximum but likely 5'10.75, claims 6'1. I mean I could go on all day. I mean yeah, assuming the whole world is honest and ok withtheir height then it would seem absurd, but obviously that's not the case. Diesel does look taller than he is prolly cuz he's an action star well built and portrays the tough guy in alot of his movies. Makes sense.
Oh & this is my personal opinion, but P.Swayze is 5'8. He's always been short, watch Road House, Ghost, Fatherhood, he is seriously 5'8 no where close to 5'10. Maybe someone could talk me into believing 5'9 morning height for Swayze but that's at best.
Oh & how can anyone argue with the Norris picture, a 6'0 guy would never appear eye level with a 5'8 guy, so even if it is only one pic, it's one revealing pic. What's wierd is there's alot of talk that chuck may be in the 5'7 range, either way where would that put vin!! so 5'10 is not out of the question!
Ok 5'10 is not a stretch, obviously you guys haven't watched knockaround guys, Vin is no more than a quarter inch, half inch max over questionable 5'10 barry pepper and 5'10 andy davoli. And keep in mind he wears his trademark boots in the film, this really makes me wonder...
Check this, Diesel in his usual monster boots, 5'9ish-5'10 max barry pepper plus diesel has road advantage, plenty through-out they movie he was no more than 1' taller than pepper if that.

Seriously I doubt he hits 5'11 much less 6'0. I would but just under 5'11,like 5'10.75, but that's the most.
***Oh and about this "why would a 5'10 guy claim 6'1" well we can drop that, reason 1 he's a star, reason 2, everyone inflates and I swear I know ppl that inflate as much as four inches. Matter a fact I have a cousin, claims 5'10, he's 5'6 prolly evening, 5'6.5 on a good day.

Bahaha who considers you as accurate as they come viper? You and your mother? According to you:
Diesel - 5'10
Smith - 6'0
Damon - 5'8
Timberlake - 5'10.5???
Smarten up. And Rob, why do you let Viper take cheap shots at you all the time? Saying things like ''Rob has half a brain'' and ''Even Rob wouldn't add an inch for him!''.

The only thing that points to Vin being around 5-10 is the Chuck Norris picture, I can't think of anything else.

Swayze could be as low as 5-9. 6-0 barefoot for Vin is ridiculous. The highest you could go for him is 5-11, and hes probably not even that. Take away his big shoes or boots and he shrinks big time to 5-10.

Viper, the fact that you think Vin Diesel and Patrick Swayze are the same height shows you have no concept of height. How you can estimate both at 5'10" is beyond me especially since Swayze is 5-9ish and Vin is around 6 feet.
Patrick Swayze always looks average at best/kind of short. Vin Diesel looks tall.
Vin at 5'10" is insane.

There is a better chance Will is 6-1 than Vin at 6-0. Vin at 6-0 is the ultimate pipe dream.

Yeah Leonari. Vin is about 6 feet and at worst Will Smith is 6'1" but he's probably taller.
Here's a good shot of his boots

Probably give close to 3 inches but he looks really tall in them.

Actually most consider me as accurate as they come. Vin isnt over 5-10 1/2 barefoot. 6-0 is insane for him. Hes been needing a downgrade on here more than anyone on this site. And Ive supplied about 1,000,000 pictures that show Will could be 5-11. Doesnt mean he is but he certaintly looks that a lot of the time.

viper: stop it. Your estimates are soo off it hurts. 5'10 Vin Diesel, 5'11-6'0 Will smith. Dear god you are bad at judging heights. Man...incredible.

Where does this 5-10 stuff come from anyway. 5-11 is the lowest I've heard for Vin outside of this site. a 5-10 guy wouldn't claim 6-1 or get called 6-3 and 6-4.

5-10 barefoot is crazy, he'd be by far the tallest looking 5-10 guy ever. let me get this straight Viper, you think 5-9 Patrick Swayze is 5-10 but you think 6-0 Vin Diesel is 5-10 too?

5-10 barefoot seems right for Vin. Maybe 6-0 or a little over in his huge boots.

Vin looks maybe a half inch taller although 1 picture is not enough to suggest Vin is around 5'10". We don't know their footwear but the picture is surprising.
I really don't know where the 5'10" stuff comes from for Vin, is it that one picture? 5'10" seems absurd, even 5'11" is too low. Vin seems to be 6 feet, even considering his boots.

I thought Chuck had 2" on Bruce. Chuck is probably 5'9.5" and in his biggest cowboy boots with lifts. Vin could be 6'0" and could have been in normal shoes.

The most I could buy him at is 5-11. But 5-10 is probably closer to the truth. Poissibly over 6-0 in his huge boots.

6-2 when i saw him recently.in big boots.6ft min barefoot.
I believe it, he looks like a 6'0" guy but that must mean Chuck Norris is still around 5'9"-5'10" and has 3" boots. Vin must have been in normal shoes that day.

I wouldn't say he has arms like a 250lber. But if he had big legs and a bigger chest and shoulders I could def see him weighing around 230lbs.
