Hader once again claimed 6’2” but not in character, this time live on Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend. A little bit of a bummer to see him rounding up like that.

There are times when Hader holds up better near Anthony Carrigan too.

But it’d be easy to imagine sometimes Hader at a 6’0.75” figure.

186 range

He actually appears to be no shorter than Jim in this clip, and Jim isn’t dropping height:

He was either the same height as Jim Carrey, or Carrey just barely edged him. 186 centimeters seems likely for Bill Hader.
Nathan Hatton said on 28/Jan/22
His character claimed 6'2" on the show Barry when he was asked how tall he was. I would have guessed him to be a legit 6'1" guy though he looks pretty tall though at that height he would be 6'2" in shoes.
David Tang said on 17/Aug/21
6'1 for hader. rob how long do you think his head is?
Editor Rob
might be almost 10 inches, though quite an equal eye-chin / eye-head ratio
Vsquad said on 2/Jul/21
He always looks like he's scraping 185. Enough that I would never argue him claiming 6'1 himself (if he hasn't already).

But I do feel like if measured at night, there's a good chance he's a few mm under.
berta said on 11/Feb/21
i think he can look 185-186.
MaskDeMasque said on 23/Nov/20
He looks like a weak 6'1 guy in Barry. 6'0.75, maybe 6'0.5
Vincent Caleb said on 24/Oct/20
As listed.
FriedChicken said on 29/Sep/20
Zero chance he's below this afternoon. Looked pretty lanky in IT Chapter Two. Him and Barack Obama are prime examples of how a legit 6 ft 1 in guy should look like.
Davidjr said on 21/Jul/20
I give him a 6 foot 1 inch because he is a tall actor and funny too
berta said on 1/Jun/20
he was desbribed 6´2 in the movies noelle. maybe 40 minutes in the movie, i think.
Tall Sam said on 18/Feb/20
Interesting that his character in Barry claimed to be 6'2", perhaps because his being tall was pivotal to the scene it was mentioned in. I'm not sure whether Hader himself would claim that, but its possible even that he was measured at that standing tall in shoes.
youknowww said on 26/Jan/20
If he's not 6'1", he is a very strong 6'0"
Jkiller said on 25/Jan/20
Strong 6'1

Aswin Kini MK said on 18/Nov/19

Yes, i always seen him as 6'0.5-0.75".
QM6'1QM said on 29/Nov/19
So close to 6'1.
Aswin Kini MK said on 18/Nov/19
Considering I have seen enough of his sketches with 6 footer actors and near six footers like Justin Timberlake and Tom Hanks, I think he is around the 6 foot 0.5 to 6 foot 0.75 range.

Also, please refer to the move Men in Black 3, where he plays a cameo (Andy Warhol) besides a 6 foot 1ish Will Smith and a 5 foot 9ish Josh Brolin. Hader was clearly an inch shorter than Will Smith.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 13/Nov/19
@185

He can be your height at 185cm i'm not sure of 186cm in person, but Ryan Reynolds in person isn't below 189cm.
Davey said on 12/Nov/19
He looks pretty big in it pt2.
I think 185/186
185 said on 13/Sep/19
Seem legit 6'1 to me
@Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 In another camera angle, the diffirent seem to be an inch or even less, he can looks 186 cm there, especially the first picture, is a very good angle to judging height i think.

Gyro said on 6/Sep/19
Hader seems to have a solid 3 inches on Finn Wolfhard, who everyone says is 5'10 these days. I think 6'1 is fine for him whether he's a few mm under or not.

Kinda like Chris Hemsworth's listing, who Rob doesn't rule out falling a bit under 6'3 at night.
Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 31/Jul/19
I don't think Hader is anything over 185cm. Click Here Ryan Reynolds is 189cm in person and had him by at least 4cm.
Tall Sam said on 5/Mar/19
Sometimes Hader though can a solid or even strong 6'1", as in the case near Ryan Reynolds and Martin Starr at the Adventureland premiere, and recently looked on the It set perceptibly the tallest of the adult cast members playing the 'Losers' and even only a couple inches under near Bill Skarsgård.
Tall Sam said on 5/Mar/19
There's little chance that Hader is actually shorter than Norton, who's a good actor but an infamous egomaniac, Hader might actually edge him by a couple cm.

However, I'm not convinced of Hader as a full 6'1", could be more 6'0.5"-6'0.75". Recently, appearing alongside John Mulaney, a self described six foot even but possibly a bit over, on SNL he looked very similar height. Also I recall Hader and 6'0.5" listed Jason Sudeikis looks more or less even height when they were cast members. At the BFG premiere, he was also similar to 6'1" listed Jemaine Clement but Clement could seem to have a slight edge.
andrew jones said on 1/Mar/19
One time on Fallon Edward Norton said "I am 6 feet tall i'm an inch taller than Bill Hader"
Canson said on 19/Jan/19
@Junior: I have a feeling that that wasn’t in the morning for Lebron. Maybe he laid down though. To be quite honest he looks the full 6’7” at times
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 19/Jan/19
@Arthur Dreams Morning height and Night height (lowest) fractuated between 1/4 to 1/2 inch lower. Lebron was drafted his measurement taken in early morning so the worst he could be just 6'6 3/4 and the positive side he is a few mm over 200cm let alone the grow taller idea because most NBA player did not grow after 18yrs old after drafted and there is small amount who atually grow between 1/8-1/2 inch, Lebron is not one of them. Kobe Bryant a believe of his low 195cm told by his wife and have solid 2-2.25" shorter than Lebron. I could throw a 6'7 for Lebron that is max.
Zachary Bode said on 24/Sep/18
Hair over 6’1”
Arthur Dreams said on 20/Sep/18
Junior hernandez , lebron was measued 6'7.1/4 barefoot coming out of highschool, he is at minimum that. No where in the 6'6 range, thats to small. Fact check yourself
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 6/Sep/18
David Dastmalchian look very similar to Hader. Both not below 6'0 1/2. Seth Rogen taking more look i would have throw 5'10 1/2 then previously thought he was a strong 5'10 7/8.
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 30/Aug/18
I make a mistake. Lebron is more legit 6'6 3/4 not a full 6'7 and Lowest Hader look 6'0 1/2 next to him.
berta said on 10/May/18
he looks 6 foot 1 range. 184,5-186 looks possible and in that range the most possible is maybe 185,5 ish
mikeyup said on 3/May/18
looks weak 6ft1 to me with schumer there
Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 21/Apr/18
Hader look a weak 6'1 next to legitmate 6'7 Lebron James. 6'0.75" a shout.
Sam said on 20/Dec/17
In those photos that Mat posted, Meyers is standing considerably closer to the camera than Hader which can make him seem relatively bigger, usually I'd say Hader looks to have more than an inch over him.
Canson (194 cm) 6'4 3/8 said on 18/Apr/17
@SJH: no guarantee that 6'4 5/8 was Barkley low even prime he may have been 6'4.5 then at his lowest. But since everyone else likes to upgrade him I'll leave him at 6'4 5/8 but I agree with everything you said
S.J.H said on 16/Mar/17
Hader is only 6'0
S.J.H said on 7/Mar/17
If charles barkley is 6'6 then bill hader is 6'1. Barkley is only 6'4-5/8th probably 6'4.5 now

ben affleck appeared to have close to 2 inches on bill hader
Giorgi said on 4/Feb/17
He has almost 5 inches on her here. Hard to tell how much his footwear adds but he's obviously taller. He will be upgraded soon I'm pretty certain. :))
Giorgi said on 3/Feb/17
He has a bad posture in the picture. If he was fully straightened up wouldn't he be almost 186 cm during a day, Rob?
S.J.H said on 6/Nov/16
Corrected my typo below:

Hader 6'0.75 max
Sudeikis 6'0 absolute max
Rogen 5'11 (1.75" shorter than hader)
Adam Sandler 5'9.75 (make rogen look 5'10.75 at times)
S.J.H said on 4/Nov/16
More i see hader he look 6'0 and more like legit 6'0.25 and jason sudeikis wasn't over 5'11.5 and i have see real difference between seth rogen and hader was like 1.5" not 2" in Superbad. Rogen look under 5'11 next to adam sandler

Hader 6'0.25
Rogen 5'10.75
Sudeikis 5'11.5
Andy Samberg 5'9
Lynx said on 9/Aug/16
@Mat he's way behind the other guys on the pictures, so of course that if he's farther from the camera and also with bad posture he'll look shorter.
Mat said on 8/Jul/16
Rob why won't you explain the photos I posted below? Bill Hader looks every bit of 5'10 in these photos, and these are full body shots on what it looks like to be flat ground.
Editor Rob
their heights can vary as I said, Like here. I do think there is a case for Hader looking not much over 6ft at times.
Mat said on 28/Jun/16
Rob he looks 5'10 here Click Here Click Here
Sam said on 1/Jun/16
Rob, could you add Knocked Up, Adventureland, The Skelton Twins, Trainwreck, The BFG and Saturday Night Live to his credits?
berta said on 27/May/16
Looks to be pretty mutch the same height as cosnter listed as 185 but could very well be 186
berta said on 3/May/16
my guess is 186 not shooooooorter
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 9/Apr/16
Rob, which one would you pick?

A) 188cm/186cm
B) 187.5cm/185.5cm
C) 187cm/185cm
D) 186.5cm/184.5cm
E) 186cm/184cm
Editor Rob
anywhere in A-C zone could be argued I feel.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Mar/16
Rob, could 186cm be closer for Hader?


He does look a strong 6ft1 guy a lot. I think Ed Norton's claim that he's taller than Bill is ridiculous...
Editor Rob
around 6ft 1 is ok for him, at times he did look a bit taller though.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Mar/16

Proportionally, Hader looks like he'd be 3-4in taller than Norton in this picture! He's standing way further back and is slouching. I'd love to see Norton say again that he's 1in taller than Bill...
hal said on 2/Jan/16
I think 6'1" is accurate. He definitely isn't below 6'0". In the movie Trainwreck, Amy Schumer's character says "I love how tall he is". No woman would say that about a guy who isn't at least 6 feet tall.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Sep/15
Well, Edward Norton is wrong...
Sam said on 9/Sep/15
Don't buy for a minute that Norton is actually taller than Hader.
jake said on 9/Sep/15
Hader doesn't really look taller than 6'0", and 5'11.5" wouldn't be shocking.
MD said on 20/Aug/15
I've generally trusted this listed height, and while the angle has something to do with it, 6'1" would still look much taller than this on a 5'10.75" Seth Meyers:

This can't even be called a footwear advantage, because it looks like Fred Armisen is the only one with any kind of significant heel.

"Bill Hader's height is 6ft 1¼in (186cm)"

American Actor from films like Superbad, Pineapple Express and Forgetting Sarah Marshall
LA Dude said on 22/Mar/15
Seen him in person. Definitely 6'2" in his shoes, really lanky too. So the impression is that he's even bigger. Probably a solid 6'1" barefoot, right on the nose.
5'11Stud said on 19/Feb/15
Edward Norton states "I'm 6ft tall" and "1 inch on Bill Hader". Which officially puts Bill Hader at 5'11. Norton has never been a guy who has height issues.

Hader looked 3" taller than Rogen but I think Rogen is 5'10.5" which is bang on average in USA.
Mike said on 26/Nov/14
No way this tall. A bear foot 6 footer max. 6'2" Mark Sanchez was on Saturday Night Live with him, towering over everyone by at least 2 inches. NFL players always good reference, since they are most accurately listed athletes.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Oct/14
If Seth Rogen is 5ft11 on the dot, then Hader is easily 6ft1-6ft2
Sam said on 2/Oct/14
Rob, any chance of a 6'1.25" listed for Hader? He can see a bit more than other 6'1" claiming guys.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Sep/14
Looked 186-187cm in Pineapple Express and Superbad
cole said on 8/Sep/14
He looks 4 inches taller than Andy Samberg and about 1in taller than Jason Sudeikis. A little over 2in taller than Seth Rogen as well. Think 6'1.25 could be spot on for Bill.

proof that Taylor Swift is at most 5'10" in the beginning of the video. Taylor 5' 11" my arse!
Sam said on 30/May/14
For Taran Killam from SNL, he's listed everywhere at 6'1" but Hader seemed an inch if not more taller when he came back for the Andy Samberg hosted SNL recently.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 11/Dec/13
Good chance he's 6ft1.25/186cm. He was definitely one of the taller guys on SNL.
He reminds me of a young Dan Aykroyd. Similiar height obviously but also a similiar style of humour.

Very talented and underrated guy. He should've had the career that Seth Rogen had.
Nenninn said on 10/Nov/13
186 cm. 6 foot 1.25 inches

Yeah, Maggie Carrey has to be near 5'10" range.

About 2.5in taller than Seth Rogen in Super Bad.

Around 6"1"-6"2".

How tall is his wife Maggie Carey? She looks very tall and is his height when in heels.
Mathew said on 16/Jun/13
Hader is 6'1" and Rogan is 5'10.75", not a legit 5'11". Maybe 5'10.5" even.

Hader is 6'1" and Rogan is 5'10.75", not a legit 5'11".
Trey said on 22/Jan/13
Seth is 5'10.75 at most. Sometimes Hader might look 185-187 range. 185 is probably spot on though.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Dec/12
Listed both 6ft1(185cm), 6ft1.5(187cm) and can look 6ft2.

"Bill Hader's height is 6 ft 1.25 in (186cm)"
jkap said on 30/Sep/12
my 6'1" cousin met bill hader and they looked the same height in the picture
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 21/Aug/12
Rob, then maybe 186cm is a fair since he can appear 6"1 and 6"1.5?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 26/Jul/12
Actually, if Seth Rogen is 5ft11
than Hader looks 6ft2 in comparison.
Rob, could the 187cm listing that you originally had, be closer?
Editor Rob
anywhere 6ft 1-1.5 is possible, at times he does look that.
steven said on 16/Jan/12
he does't look 6'1. i could bet a million bucks he can't get away the same height as 6'0 kevin costner.

As I saw him at Superbad first, I thought he is in the 6´2-6´3 range.. really
Trey said on 30/Jun/11
I don´t think he looks taller than 6ft, maybe even as low as 5´11.5" at times. 6´2" is way of the mark though...
Lenad said on 15/Jun/11
i always new the 187cm was too high
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 19/May/11
Yeah this is closer...but is Seth Rogen really 5"11?

If he's genuinely 180cm then Hader is around 186-187cm.
Ace said on 16/May/11
He was about an inch shorter than Gerard Butler on SNL when they were both wearing Spartan sandals
Babalou said on 11/Apr/11
6ft 1.5 is LAUGHABLE, at the comedy awards he was shorter than 6'1 Matt Stone and 6'0 Trey Parker.

Really 187cm Rob?
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 23/Feb/11
185cm min...187cm max

Doesn't look over 6"1. Rob could 186cm be nearer?

he says himself that he is 6'1"
Josh.J said on 5/Jul/09
some pics with ryan reynolds who is 6'2. stands quite tall and does look over 6'1. if reynold is really 6'2 and no taller, hader looks to be around 185~186cm. in the pics reynolds has bad posture with his legs crossed, so he appears shorter.

i think robs listing is right.
he appears no taller, but no shorter in my oppinion.
Also Ray, Andy is 5'10"
Ace said on 8/Jun/09
He was a little shorter than 6`1 Bradley Cooper when he hosted.
Ray said on 6/Jun/09
He's less than 3 inches taller than SNL partner Andy Samberg, side by side. Andy is said to be 5'9", that would make him almost 6'. (I think no taller than 6'1".)
jf said on 4/Jun/09
I just saw him on a skit on SNL that Justin Timberlake hosted a couple months ago and during JT's monologue he walks backstage and he stands next to Bill Hader and they are within a quarter inch of eachother. So unless JT was wearing 2" lifts, and Hader was barefooted, there is no way Hader is 73.5" tall.
Clay said on 3/Jun/09
Why no way ? People who have met him all claim he is about 6'1. He is absolutely more than 6 flat, at the least he is 6 foot and a half. He does look a legit 6'1 next to Ryan Reynolds who is 6'2.
Anonymous said on 29/May/09
6,1.5? hahah no way lol. mebe 6 tops
Mathew said on 25/May/09
I'd have guessed him around 6', 6'1" flat tops personally.
flash_of_eden said on 22/May/09
I've always seen him listed at 6'1" flat, but 6'1.5" is entirely possible; it's only a half-inch.
thekiddd said on 21/May/09
He was taller than Rogen by about 2 inches in Superbad. Rogen is like almost 5'11" so 6'1" sounds about right. Possibly 6'1 1/2"
Coldstone said on 21/May/09
Nah, Just 6'1".
Ace said on 21/May/09
He's 6`1.5? I always thought somewhere in the 6`0 foot range.
