13th Annual Screen Actors guild pics of Will Smith, Eva Longoria and Tony Parker. If Tony Parker's 6-2 NBA listing is with shoes, he's 6-0.75 and judging from the above mentioned pictures Will Smith is 5-11 to 5-11.5. If Tony Parker is 6-2 barefoot, Smith is 6-0.25 to 6-0.75. All assuming Parker isn't wearing lifts.

Saga have you seen Forest Whitaker in the Crying Game. In that movie he looked a true 6ft2.

Forest was a legit 6'2 but now he's 6'0 IMO. It's seems he has lost 2 inches..it's strange because in old pics Forest is 6'2 for sure but today he is noticeably shorter.

Ok saga fair enough Forest Whitaker doesen't look 6ft2 in those pics. Although he is listed as 6ft2 on this website and all the heights on here are very accurate. So how tall do you think forest might be then?

@ James
It's quite simple..because Whitaker isn't (more??)6'2.
Morgan Freeman is a real 6'2.

This is how a fair 6'2 man looks near Whitaker, so Will is 6'0.5!

James Avery is not truthful. I think he has downgraded himself from early in his career to help get roles.

He might not be 6'0.5 , but he sure ain't 6'2.5 ! ... He is most likely 6'1 ... maybe maybe MAYBE 6'1.5 !

Saga those pictures are hard to judge since neither of them are standing up straight. I am sure Will Smith is very close to his 6ft2.5 claim I mean just look at the pictures with 6f2 Forest Whitaker that ed has below. HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THOSE?

Postures in these pics aren't good for accurate estimation but i'm almost sure that you won't see that 4 inches differential.
Will is 185 (a flat 6'1).
No way near 6'3, it's just ridiculous.

I estimate that 6'0.5 watching the photos/video you posted here.
I'm talking about Ato Essandoh, Isiah Thomas, Denzel Washington , Warren Beatty and Jeff Goldblum...Come on, there's no way a 189 cm guy looks that short!
Moreover i'm from Italy, and i remember the Festival of Sanremo of the last year where Will was the guest star! So he stands right beside the Italian showman Paolo Bonolis who always has claimed "i'm 180 cm" (5'10.5). I noticed max 2 inches between them. I was surprised because i've always thought that Will was a strong 6'1. Well since 2 inches are not 4 inches Will is clearly 184-185 (barefoot)! End of story.

Saga I have to disagree with your 6ft.05 estimates. Belive me Will Smith is a solid 6ft2 guy just watch Independence Day, in the scenes with him and Bill Pullman who is 6ft1.5 Will is like an inch taller. Or infact just look at the pictures ed has posted with him and Forest Whitaker. Seriously man get real 6ft.05 that's a joke.

Willy is 6'2 no doubt! I'M 6'1 & stood next to him in new york city back in 03...he was slightly,but clearly taller then me...also...look at donald trump...he's 6'3 so they say...I am not sure of this,I've never met the guy...but if donald is 6'3 then will smith would be 6'4....& that is just not happening! Clearly will was taller then donald on the set of fresh prince...I know for certain that vince mcmahon is 6'1 no less...maybe 6'1 1/2...donald does not appear a full inch taller then vince! So I would knock mr. Donald down to 6'1 1/2 & mr. Mcmahon down to 6'1...that way willy will appear his rightful height at 6'2 possibly 6'2 1/2!

I agree saga ... 6'2 or more is too much for him in barefeet ... he just does not look that tall , COME ON ROB , please downgrade his height to 6'1 max !!! ... He really does look in the 6'0.5 , 6'1 range ... plus he makes Martin Lawrence look 5'9 when he only claims " 5'7 , 5'8 " and somebody said that James Avery claimed 6'4 , and Will Smith is atleast 3 inches shorter !

build has a lot do with looking average
You say he doesn't look your height when he might have a bigger head than you or a shorter neck, or a longer torso or shorter torso, etc.

But i'm definitely 100% sure that he's not in 6'2 range or even more..
I'm a real 6'2.5 barefoot and i'm taller than most of people...will seems to be a bit more of an average man in photos or films. Period.

In fact, if Will Smith is 6-1 flat, then I Robot would have been similar to "The Empire Stikes Back" where a 5-10 Bill Dee Williams looked the same height as 6-1 Harrison Ford. Brigette Moynahan could have been the new Billy Dee.

Well , Alfonso and Tate are pretty much the same height ! ... I have a photo to prove that if I can ever put it on a good site ! ... Sorry , but I find it hard to see Will being 6'1.5 sometimes . I think he is around the 6'1 mark for sure , but I find it hard to see him past that ! ... Smith being 6'2 or 6'2.5 puts James Avery at about 6'5+ , when he only claims 6'4 ! ... Maybe Smith is 6'1.5 in the morning and 6'0.5 at night ? ... If Smith was 6'2.5 barefoot , that would put him at nearly 6'4 in shoes ! ... Glenn saw Smith at 6'2 , Frank 2 saw Smith at 6'1 , and Mr.R saw Smith 6'2 ! ... No body saw 6'3-6'4 which is what he would have looked in shoes if he was a legit 6'2 guy ! ... I personally think Will is just a 6'1er , which is still pretty tall !

BUT add 6'2 , 6'2.5 Will Smith and those heights just don't add up , because James has too much height over Will and Will does not have enough height over Alfonso ! ...

Since Warren Beatty is the only celebrity I saw up close "in the wild" twice, I am confident to say he is a true 6'2". In Smith's defense I have to say that in the picture of him with Beatty, both have their heads at an angle a bit and Beatty seems to stand closer to the camera. Still, I was surprised to see how close in height they are, because I always believed Smith would easily have an inch on Beatty. Maybe he looks taller because he hasn't filled out as much as Beatty has at this point. Before this picture, I'd always figured Smith to be a solid 6'2", perhaps even 6'3"!

I'd be very surprised if Will was "only" my height. I always thought 6-2 was true growing up to Fresh Prince. Now with a more discerning eye he looks 6-1 on an *average*. He tends to favor boots/bball shoes on that show.

After reading all the comments, i need to stress that it doesn't matter how tall an actor appears on camera or on screen, it's all an illusion. Will Smith is considered an "Action Hero" and in order to be a good "Action Hero", one must be "larger than life". He is purposely shot to create the illusion of greater height.

I worked on "Enemy of the State" and stood next to Will Smith on a couple of occasions. I am 6'1". Will smith is 5'11" at best. Regarding heights in film, sctors stand on small wooden boxes to appear taller. As an extra in "Fight Club", Meatloaf portayed a former weightlifter who was diagnosed with testicular cancer. He was supposed to be this towering guy so, being a short man, he stood atop the wooden apple box and the camera shot from a somewhat lower angle to achieve the illusion of height.

In "I, robot" it is said that the robots are "slightly lower than 6 foot". However, in the scene where he's face to face to the robots he's not 2.5 inches taller than the robots.
I found this on a page concerning movie goofs and I think it's somehow intreaguing, although I don't think it's a reliable comparison...

Not necessarily conclusive but Smith was in a movie with Jason Lee (Enemy of the State)in which I would say Smith was fractionally taller, although on Lee's page you say they are pretty much the same height. Lee was also in a movie with 6ft 1 in David Schwimmer (don't remember the name) in which Lee appeared fractionally taller than Schwimmer.

I don't see anything under 6'1" either. His 6'2" claim is very shaky, and I don't really buy it, but I seriously doubt he's only 6'. There are only a FEW instances where he doesn't look at least 6'1, unlike tom cruise, brad pitt, stallone, and so forth (They are so variable, it's not even funny). This leads me to believe the people he's standing next to are the lift wearers. There really is only a few cases of him looking shorter than normal. It makes sense to me.

Hmmmmmm, I dunno, it's still highly debatable. I think 6'1.5" is fine for now, but I wouldn't rule out a full 6'2" as a possibility. If only he adopted better posture more often then it wouldn't be such a guessing game.

Having watched I, Robot recently, the idea of this guy being below 6'1" like some believe is not realistic. Granted in I, Robot he looks 6' - 6'1, you have to remember he's wearing converse the whole film and even comments on the hot actress' good posture (forgot her name) and how he has bad posture.
He looks nothing short of 6'1" and at the same time nothing higher than 6'2". Rob has him right at 6'1.5" because I was thinking a weak 6'2" (like a full 6'1.75" on a good day) while watching the film. I have a hard time buying his 6'2.5" claim.

Editor Rob the thing is, with some actors you wonder listening to them in interviews etc 'why would they lie' about something like height.
in some cases its bizarre and seems out of character. Maybe its just a whole lot more trying to call in shoes, which is strange considering no sane doctor as far as I know would measure you with footwear on, well, unless he looked like the doctor from the cannonball run

James Avery being 6'4 and Alfo bing 5'6 ... Really does put Will in the 6'1 range ! Theres no doubt that hes atleast a 6 footer , but 6'1 barefoot is pretty realistic !

This is bizarre. Will Smith's waxwork is about 5'10 but accounting for a slouch, no taller than 5'11. This is me (181cm) standing next to him. I had my height measured by a machine, and I'm exactly 181cm. Even if his slouch deducts over 2 inches, smith does not seem to have the body type of somebody over 6' tall

Will smith use to look tall, like 6ft 2 tall before in his fresh prince days since he was thin and it gave the ellusion that he was taller then he really is. but i've noticed that the older he gets and since he's started pumping the weights and become more buff and wider he doesnt look as tall anymore, so yea i agree with 6 to 6'1, it sounds reasonable, i mean it's still tall but really not that tall, just a nice tallness that completes a good actor personality. no one wants to be a 6'4+ giant, inless your a basketball player where the height is usefull, so yea 6 to 6'2 is the ideal height for any actor, modle

Ice, also if he were happen to get a different measurement it doesn't mean at all that he shrunk. He could have just got measured at a different time of the day, morning, afternoono or night as you can lose an inch by night from your early morning height. Will has claimed 6'2 before though.

Alex: Agreed. I don't think he lost any height either. At the ABSOLUTE MOST 1 cm. People like to use that arguement a lot when in reality you normally don't start to shrink until you're in your mid to late thirties, and even that's minimal. When I hear about major shrinkage, I'm thinking 50s and 60s.

He hasn't lost any height. I do agree some of these guys have lost height, mostly the wrestlers are the ones but they are over 40 something years old though. Smith isn't even old. He may be rounding up. 6'1.5 I'd give him.

Older? LOL he's in his late thirties (38). I seriously doubt he has lost substantial height, at the most 1/2 inch. As for his height, I don't think he's a full 6'2. I think 6'1.25-6'1.5" is good.

i think sometimes Smith can look 6'2 , but i don't think he truly is ...
like i said before , Alfo is NO TALLER then 5'6ish ( as rob agrees ) , and theres NOT an legit 8 inch difference !
if Smith is a minimum 6'2 , then Alfo is a minimum 5'7 and James is a minimum 6'5 ... and Josepth is a minimum 5'7.5
Smith is about 6'1 - 6'1.25 with bad posture .

He could get away with 6'2. He looks 6'1 minimum I think and he did write 6'3 down in his profile in a magazine years ago.

Well, how do you explain Will looking 6-0 next to 6-4 Bill O'reilly? Either Bill is taller than 6-4 or Ferrel is under 6-3. And I thought they were standing straight too.

I really do think Smith is 6'2. As stated many times, photos don't always determine height properly. Plus, if Smith is really 6'-6'1, then Ferrell is only 6'1-6'2, which seems pretty far out there. Especially since Will often comes across as bigger than 6'3.
And for the record, James Avery is more 6'5 than 6'4.

Viper , legit 6'1 is more like it . you do have to think about his bad posture sometimes . still though even counting bad posture , 6'1.5 is pushing it ( meaning maximum ) . i say 6'1 flat and a good 6'2 in shoes . Alf did the same by just saying what his height is in shoes . they did not really lie if you think about it . alot of people ( mostly males ) claim there height in shoes .
on the other hand ... James Avery really does same easily 6'4 .

will smith is a legit 6'1 ! he is a good 3 inches shorter then james avery who is a soild 6'4 guy . a few people see him appear as 6'2-6'3 in person because he is legit 6'1 ( which legit 6'1ers sometimes appear ) . also there is a lot of prove pics and video wise that Alfo is no taller then 5'6ish , and even though there is a big gap between them ... will just does not look 6'2 next to him or james .
well, i think he can appear as low as 6'0 , but it is do to his bad posture . altough i do think he definitely is a minimum 6'0.5-6'1 !
6'2 really is a bit much , 6'1.5 is pushing it ! the guy is a legit 6'1 and i don't care who disagrees !!!

Growing up watching French Prince, I always just assumed Will was really tall because of his gawkiness, at least 6'4". But then years later when I saw Independance Day, I noticed that Goldblum had a solid 3 inches on him. I'd give him 6'1.5", no more.

Was that on Conan's show C? Almost every actor looks closer to Conan's height on his show because I read where the stage is actually tilted to the actors favor when they come out. Pretty funny stuff but true nontheless. Also his show has weird camera angles as well. Seen many actors even below 6-0 who looks closer to Conan's height when they shake his hand.

I remember Will Smith being nearly the same height as Conan O'Brien when he was promoting the first Bad Boys movie (yes, I remember that long ago). The height difference was only about an inch at most (I can't remember the footwear). Conan O'Brien is reportedly 6'4'' (I've heard he was taller by people who met him). Unless Smith shrunk (which I doubt since he's not even 40), he has to be at least 6'2''.

In that of Will Smith-Torres:
Torres is officialy listed 184cm by his club (Atletico Madrid), the thing is that he was listed once 186cm in the most influential media in Spain (Marca, an sport news paper whic is sold in bigger numbers than regular press, SAD :/ )
The thing is that this guy grew since he was in the Atletico, 1cm, but better than nothing. Could he have grown more? I hope i can meet him in Madrid.

I'm not sure if they are on even ground but a 6'2" guy usually doesn't look that short near a 6'4" guy unless Oreilly is more 6'4.5" or in that general area. I looks like about 3" of difference.

Ok....first of all there is a difference of on average 1 inch between somebodies height with shoes on rather than them barefoot. So if Will says he's 6'2 he could possibly mean 6'2 with shoes on. And if he is about 6.5 without shoes than he would be about 6-1.5. With that said he could possibly just be rounding up because it would just sound weird if everytime he said how tall he was he said 6-1.5 the average person would just round up.

My thought was 6-1 or a quarter inch under. 6-2 is too high. Although maybe he was wearing his trusty boots when meeting the 6-2 wayne newton he was the same height, incidentally so was damon wayan.

Isiah Thomas is said to be 6'1 6 barefoot probably. Ben is right there is no way will is taller then Isiah Thomas, i've seen the episode and near the end they walk out togehter and he is about 1 inch shorter. That puts Will at 5'11 barefoot. It also depends on a person's perception on height, i see height by the measuring tape and 6 feet to me is tall most people in the regular world of daily life are under that mark but many may seem they are 6 but really aren't. Besides Will does not seem tall in his movies like a 6'2 morgan freeman who seems the tallest in his scenes like a 6'2 person should. Will seems tall for a regular person but not tall like a model. I think 5'11 - 5'11.5 is accurate standing barefoot.

all i have to say is that i am convinced that Will Smith is no more then 511.5 - 6 barefoot maybe less who knows. But if you remember the fresh prince episode where they had Isiah Thomas in and him a Will were walking togehter in the jym, Will was at least 1 inch or maybe even 1.5 inch shorter than Isiah. Isiah is said to be barely over 6 feet himself, look:

Fardeen Khan is more likely 5'7 to 5'8!...all indian actors inflate their height! Indian men tend to be fairly short!(average height is around 5'6 to 5'7) He is not very tall! In the pictures with Will Smith, he probably is wearing boots!..this puts will at around 5'11
barefoot!..in shoes 6' to 6'1. His height has been inflated! To me he only looked around 5'11 to 6'in shoes in The Fresh Prince! Most likely he wears lifts/chunky shoes...like the rest of them!!

CelebHeights Editor, that picture( http://editorial.gettyimages.com/source/search/details_pop.aspx?iid=2646247&cdi=0" ) that you linked shows Will Smith just a little bent over, almost the same height as Les Ferdinand. But if you think of those kind of shoes that men were with tuxedos, they probably boost them up a inch, sometimes even more(not too sure though). So you cant really tell with that picture because of the shoes that they are wearing. Will smith probably measures himself with shoes on too, I said "probably". This is my opinion. It makes sense to me, what about you?

Another thing, In Hitch he looked noticably taller then Alan Arkin who is meant to be between 6'1" and 6'2", so I now do belive that if he bothers to stand upright, Will Smith is 6'2"

A couple years back when I saw Will Smith in person,I initially questioned whether he actually was 6'2" at the time ( I thought he was more my height which is 6'1"), and then deciding that he probably would have been had he bothered to stand up properly because he really does slouch and lean on all and sundry. I just watched Hitch on Satelitte, and noticed in one seen with Michael Rappaport ( if thats how you spell it) they were the same height, and I know Rappaport is meant to be 6'3" or more. In that movie Smith looked pretty tall the whole way through, so I am pretty sure that Smith is 6'2" or close to it, but the 6'0" and 5'11", get real guys!

That another guy was, think about 194-195 and was a head taller smith! those 2 facts is more than enough for downgrading smith-lier!
