One of the few listed 5'9" that is actually a solid one. 5'9.25" at least. Edges out Carrell and Rudd

He is a solid 5'9.25 (175.5cm). Always looks like it in every thing he's in.

Average guess is too low, I'm not convinced he'd measure anything under 5'9

The listing is correct, he looks 5’9, maybe in his teenage years was very near to 5’10 range

There are photos floating around of him, Ben Stiller, and Kristen Wiig (wearing heals), and he's only like 2" taller than Stiller. Wiig is listed at 5' 5", and in heals looks a hair taller than Adam Scott. Idk, he seems more like 5' 8"... Erm, okay, I've already clicked submit, but other photos of the 3 of them and he does look taller from other angles.

5'9.25" IMO. A solid 5'9" with an Edge on the likes of Steven Carell and other people of the 5'9" variety

This might be an underlist. He seems more like a weak 5'10 (5'9.75 range)to me. A little taller then guys like Paul Rudd and Steve Carrell. Scott has a slight build so seems shorter.

He can look both a little under and a little over the 5'9 mark at times. He's more of a solid 5'9 than someone like Paul Rudd imo.

I just saw him today and I'm 5'9 1/2 and he was slightly taller than me. I think he's a legit 5'10

Rob, could you please add Step Brothers, Party Down, Friends with Kids, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty and Parks and Recreation to his credits?
I'd say 174 cm is arguable but I wouldn't go any lower than that.

There is no way that adam scott is average height.. 5'9" is way too tall for him in my opinion. In the picture posted by "MD", Adam Scott is standing right next to Jeremy Sisto, who is listed on this site as 6'1.5".. From the picture alone, Scott gives up a solid 5.5 inches.. Sisto is towering over him, which would not be the case if Scott were a true 5'9"...

5'9 can't be right, he always look a little below average, 5'8.

@Emily: Yeah his head isn't that big, he's got a very voluminous hairstyle, small shoulders and is skinny in general. He's no taller than 5'9.

I notice many people thinking he has a big head. Does he really? I think he's very skinny, so that definitely adds in making his head look bigger, plus he's short (-ish), so that's another contributing factor.

Funny picture, Jeremy Sisto towers over the other actors in it. Scott and his old friend Paul Rudd look similar height, Rudd may be a fraction taller. I've seen Rudd in person at 5'8"-5'9" range, so I think Scott's closer to 5'8" than 5'9". Also witness how Jennifer Westerfeldt seems taller than Adam in Friends with Kids.

He's not straightened up as much as he could. If he were, you'd get about a half-inch difference.

Just saw him on Jimmy Kimmel's late night show, and he looked a bare minimum three inches shorter than 5'11.5" Jimmy Kimmel. I'd shave off at least half an inch. He is not even 5'9", let alone 5'10".

This guy can look anything from 5'8 to 5'10. In the movie The Vicious Kid which I am watching as we speak, with Alex Frost who's supposedly 5'10, and JK Simmons who's listed 5'10.5, he looked taller than Frost. I wouldn't say he's over 5'9 but sometimes I really wonder. Have you heard of Alex Frost, Rob? How tall do you think he is? He can look 5'8 range to me.

In an episode of Parks and Recreation, when Ron has the cast line up to explain who broke his coffee machine, Adam Scott and Aziz Ansari stand next to each other, and the difference was shocking. He had at least 3 inches on him.

Says he's 5'10" in one profile 5'9" in another, now 5'8" If you look at the picture of him in Leap Year standing in the hotel lobby going to propose to Amy Adams, who she is 5'4" tall, and his slight build, I would guess him at 5'5" or 5'6" tall, he looks a littleperson next to Matthew Good.....

I don't know. He looks a weak 5'9 next to Amy Poehler on Parks and Rec. Poehler's pretty short but still, he's almost a head taller than her. I'd guess 5'8.75 for most of the day.

he's about 5'8" maybe less in the movie "Operation:Endgame" - Ellen Barkin with 2" heels makes her about 5'8" and she still looked a little taller - 5'7.5" could also be a possibility

He looks about an inch shorter than 5'8 Mary Steenburgen in Step Brothers. Could be the angles, but he's definitely shorter than 5'10.

If you look closely, he was just about Jennifer Lopez's hieght in Monster In Law (without heals....in fact without any shoes).
I'd put him closer to 5'6". No Lie. He was about 1 inch taller then JLo and JLo is about 5'5" MAX

Hey, after having watched "Monser in Law" I'd say that 5ft10 is clearly a max for Adam. I'd give him closer to 5'9 actually, and maybe less. He really did not strike me as tall, especially next to J Lo.
