Ben Browder's Height
6ft 0 (182.9 cm)
American Actor best known for playing John Crichton on TV series Farscape and Lt. Colonel Cameron Mitchell on Stargate:SG1. His height was listed 6ft 1 in a football database although when I saw him in person I thought he was more around the Six feet mark. In a Scifi.com fan question and answer he said: "I stand 6' 1" and often look to be 5' 6" [because of camera angles on farscape]".

Hey Rob, is there a footwear difference or is he losing some height due to posture? I can see 5’11.5 max for this guy.

Editor RobI think most likely dropped a bit more in posture, as he seems nearer 6ft in person.

Hi Rob, are you sure he's the full 6 foot? He looks noticeably shorter than Charlie Hunnam and Tom Cavanagh next to you.

Right, I'd give him the benefit of the doubt with the slouch, but even then, I can't see anything over 180cm either.

I've come back to review Browder, off the photo, he seems around 5'11 flat assuming matching postures. I'm not a fan of being largely academical when assessing heights (leads to unnecessary speculation). Hence there is no way I can tell who is losing/gaining between Ben and Rob from this photo. All I can say is that I would expect him to be at least 5'11 as a starting point.

Still puzzled. I just saw another Stargate episode, where they were in Atlantis and Browder looked taller than Flanigan and Shanks (those two looking roughly the same height) and again a LOT taller than Tapping. Browder was comfortably looking completely over her head, hair included. I've noticed they wear thick combat boots but I'd assume they're the same for all of them. So if Browder is only 181-182 cm, how on earth does he look that much taller than Amanda Tapping who's supposed to be 175 cm?
Another interesting thing is that Shanks looked surprisingly short, like 177-178 cm, next to Torri Higginson (who was NOT wearing the huge combat boots, but something that looked like mid top hiking shoes... a hardcore fan could probably find out the make and model... :)). And I don't mean Shanks looked "short short", but I would have expected him to look MUCH taller as Higginson is listed here at 170 cm. Weird...

Don't know if it's relevant to this particular pic, but the eye height thing is not as straightforward as some assume. It depends on what you're looking at or who you're talking to. I know I lean, dip, hunch or whatever if I'm talking to someone shorter than me, if you measured my "eye height" there it would be pretty meaningless.
It's pretty weird how Browder is guessed substantially lower than Shanks. Their pics here would indicate a pretty similar height. Also in the Stargate ep I saw recently Browder looked comfortably 10 cm taller than Amanda Tapping, and also clearly taller than Shanks. I'd still guess him at 6' flat max, anything more is TV tricks.

I think if he stood tall, he would have a 5'7 eye-level (more on the weak side), which is low for 6ft guy. He does however have a closer to 5 inch eye-level. Can't see him measuring anything higher than 5'11.75.
One thing I give Rob credit for is that he is meticulous with the language he uses in most of his posts hence leaving the option of one measuring a range rather than one specific height.. He has clearly stated in the description that "he was more about the 6ft mark".

@josh b, but then, why does the height scale show his eye level to be 5'6? A 6ft tall man has a 5'7.5 eye level, assuming their eye level is 4.5 inches from the top of their head to their eyes. Assuming his eye level was merely 4 inches, it'd be 5'8, or if 5 inches, it'd be 5'7. So in either scenario, a 5'6 eye level is not common for a 6ft tall guy.

He's 5'11 by the scale though, not 6ft. Solid 5'11 it looks like. Average guess is roughly 5'11.5, so weak 6ft.

Well guys I was in the same boat as everyone, I looked at Rob's photo and thought "This guy is never 6 foot" but once again one photo is not conclusive. I saw this guy along with Michael Shanks, who most agree is 6 foot perhaps even slightly over, and well they were indistinguishable height wise. Browder may have even had the edge. Unbelievable really.

There was a picture with ben browder and michael shanks in stargate sg1 they were standing next to each other looking at the stargate. Browder appeared to be about 1.25-1.5 cm shorter than Shanks. If shanks is 183 cm than maybe Browder could be 181.5 cm. The strange thing is that shanks does appear taller in a couple of photografs but sometimes they are of equal height. I still think that shanks could be a little bit taller than browder

His eye level is 5'6 so that would make 5'11 at very most, 5'10 minimum. Definitely falls in between there but 6ft? NO CHANCE.

Browder is definitely 4 inches taller than you. So, given equal foot ware, I put him at 6'0".
Six years later and he got so fat I did not recognize him. Did NOT age well. Unrecognizable except for his voice.
Too bad. What a shame. I really liked him in SG-1. I thought he did a great job. He stayed very fit for those years.

This guy needs to be reconsidered. He was smaller than Joe Flanagan by at least a half inch in a crossover episode of Stargate SG-1 (The Pegasus Project, season 10). Flanagan is listed as 5'11.5" but I think he's a bit smaller. Either way, full six feet seems unlikely for Browder.

I agree with mId, looks around 5'10.5" or at the very most a weak 5'11" here. A true 6' guy should look much taller than this next to someone 5'8". But since Rob actually met him and still lists him at 6' i guess he's got to be close to that. Strange how a seemingly decent (for height judging purposes) photo like this can make someone appear significantly shorter/taller than they are.

6 feet? looks about 5'10.5 in this photo. I mean really.. 4 inches apart? There's 1" between me and my brother and just 1" makes a whole difference standing next to eachother if you ask me. So I would never have guessed 4" apart based on this photo.

Hmm sometimes this guy looks medium height in Farscape and other times tallish. I'm not so fussed about the fact that he is significantly shorter then Simcoe because he is a legit 6'5" man with a prosthetic head and boots on. I can forgive him for sometimes only looking several inches taller then Claudia because she is tall already and wears big chunky boots with extra sole on. But it is a little odd that he sometimes seems close in height to Virginia Hey who is around 5'11" when she wears thin plimsole like shoes and sometimes goes barefoot.

Here is a weirdo pic where he seems much taller then Ron Pearlman somehow...

Looking 3 inches taller then Amanda tapping

So I would say he is around 6'...
Editor Rob I've met Claudia, she wears huge heels though, but she could be 173 or max 174cm and thus Browder max 184cm yes. Sometimes he never looked much different than michael shanks.

In a recent eposide of Stargate Bea Bridges and Ben Browder were walking side by side in a forest scene. Ben was much taller than Beau. Beau's height is 5' 10". Ben definately looked taller than than 3 inches in that scene and we could see both their feet and yes they were wearing 'normal' shoes. I would have to say that Ben is definately 6' 1" tall.

Well, he definitely isn't 185cm... in the latest Stargate there is a perfect side by side comparison with Lexa Doig (166), Amanda Tapping (175) and Ben... if the difference was the same between the first two, Ben should be much taller than Tapping, but looks just a bit (about 3cm). Unless both Tapping and Doig are wearing lifts, he isn't 6ft.

I think he is more like 1.83cm. I do agree with camera angles making him look smaller though; I originally thought he was only 5'11 but he is obviously taller than this. In the more recent episodes of Stargate SG1 there have been many more close up shots of the actors, Browder appears to be about 3.5 inches taller than Claudia Black and about the same as Michael Shanks. It is also clear that he is 3 inches shorter than Chris Judge. I think he could do with downgrading slightly.

Folks, just watch old movies to discover the truth...
In "Memphis Belle" Browder is standing face to face to M. Modine who is likely to be a true 6"3. Q:How come that a person of 6"1 looks 4 inches shorter than a Person of 6"3. Modine dwarves Browder in that scene...
A:Because he isn't even 6". Simple as that.
The tragic thing in this whole matter is that Browder is so desperate to appear 6"1 that he's wearing such lifts that one day he'll brake a leg.

After having seen several of the new season episodes of SG1, it's clear to me that Browder and Shanks are about equal height. Sometimes it's difficult to judge because Shanks slouches quite a bit, but I think I've seen enough scenes of them together to come to this conclusion. Browder, by the way, has saved SG1 from the stagnation of the "O'Neil Lite" seasons. He and Shanks have a great chemistry. The producers hit the bullseye when they cast him.

In a Scifi.com fan q&a he states: "I stand 6' 1" and often look to be 5' 6"[because of camera angles on farscape"

Watching old Farscape episodes i noticed Mr. Browder beeing visibly shorter than Virginia Hey who is listed at 5ft11. Even if she is one of those underlisted women of real 6ft, shouldn't a person of 6ft1 be taller or at least be as tall as a 6ft woman?!? Now, if Virginia Hey is 5ft11, how tall is Ben Browder...? (P.S. Virginia Hey plays a priest on Farscape and several times you can see that she just wears flat sandals)

Pogo, Browder said this about Shanks: "We don't look that much alike. That's a myth. He's six foot and built, and I'm 5 foot 3, 235 lbs and pasty."
