Hilariously funny! If you missed him on TV the first go around, check him
out on the JayLenoFly on YT.Solid 6-1. He is definitely one that looks taller by being "lanky" and shoes he had on that night. Judged this, much like you, by the celebs I've personally encountered, and the lovely and talented Craig Ferguson had on the program...

I think 6ft1 current is still ok...at times can look he's struggling with it
Looked closer to 6ft2 in the 90's, so a chance of 6ft1¾ peak

I think he's probably just slouching heavily, but it was strange watching that video. He looked barely over 6ft through most of it! I really doubt he's that low though.
In his prime he was certainly no less than 6'1.5, and I could see the argument for 6'1.75-6'2, as he could look taller than Gerard Butler in 2010 Click Here, Click Here. From 2014 and definitely in 2019 he could look somewhat shorter Click Here, Click Here. Whether there's a wee footwear swing in those sets of photos I'm not sure, but Ferguson has definitely lost a bit of height regardless.
Maybe he could have lost near the full inch over the last few years Rob? A 6'1.75 range peak and perhaps a touch below 6'1 today?

Just seen a clip of him with Scott Waites the darts player, I've seen Waites in person and he can't be any taller than 6', if that. He looks a good bit taller than Ferguson, though. What's the deal with that? I thought there was a good chance he was 184cm or 185cm on a good day but now I am confused. Rob, what do you think?

I dont get it. I've met James Corden, who is definitely about 5ft 8. If Craig is a strong 6ft 1 or more - how come he only looked about 4 inches taller than James, with like 1 inch more shoes?

Saw a clip from 2014 with David Tennant on his show. 100% he's taller than David. 6ft1.25 or 6ft1.5 is what he was. Lost a fraction by now though.

Both seem to be wearing the dress shoes and I do understand Russell's hairstyle might affect how we judge this. Thoughts? Click Here and

He can be 6'1 if Zachary Levi is atually 6'3 1/2 but i'm thinking Craig is more like 6'0 7/8 and Levi 6'3 3/8. Peak Craig is more like 6'1 3/8.

I've watched an absurd amount of Craig's interviews and seen him with so many people. I'm quite comfortable saying it's impossible he's as low as a flat 6'0 or as tall as 6'3. But also that the only time I've heard him claim 6'3, I think he did it for comic effect, because of how the interview began, playing off of Gwendoline Christie who was in serious heels, lording it over him, in addition to being a giant of a female when not in heels. I think he may have peaked as high as just over 6'2 in the Drew Carey years and have heard him say he was 6'2 a few times before I think. He always looks tall to me. When he says 6'2, he may be rounding up slightly these days at 55. 6'1.5 doesn't seems like a fair enough listing. Seeing him next to Morgan Freeman, Hugh Laurie, Jeff Goldblum, multiple times, I have to assume 6'1 or 6'2 is accurate enough.

I'm guessing 6'1" now without shoes, as much as 6'2" at his peak. Shoes can make any guy who's at least a whisper over 6' barefoot into a 6'3" guy.

Paul murphy, less so in current times. Just not possible with the internet, social media, youtube, loss of the right for privacy. People that become famous these days still over claim but no where near 3in.
I think Craig creeps down to 6ft0.75in in the evening and wasn't much taller when he was younger.
P.S.
His 3rd wife is really hot.

Everyone in Hollywood ads up to 3" to their true height.its an unwritten rule.peaple look at celebrities as larger than life peaple so we assume their tall.the fact is most of them are surprisingly short.therefore a guy like Ferguson who is truly 6' or more comes off looking like 6'3.

I watch his talk shows on youtube. He is very friendly. He is a tall man. He looks 186 cm and he is a little shorter than Letterman. But they could be similar. Young I think he was around 188 cm ( 6'2 feet) sure.

Craig was easily 6'2" in his prime. His posture these days is rather poor, and he wears lifts a lot, but when he does stand straight, he can probably still get 0.5" under his peak height. As for normal slouched height, I'd say he's between 6'1" and 6'1.25".

Rob, this photo is indicative of how short Alex Salmond really is. He's claimed to be 5ft8 / 5ft9 which is ridiculous (I estimate he's not more than 5ft4). You've stated your own height at 5ft8 and whenever you stand next to 6ft1 / 6ft2 celebs, the height difference isn't significant (as you stand next to circa 6ft1 Avery Brooks, for example). As for Craig Ferguson, he's shorter than 6ft1; he's a bit taller than 5ft11 but that's all. Anyway, I've said it before and I'll say it again: Unless I see you standing next to these celebs, I'll never buy any of their height claims.;-)

I think his current 6'1" listing is accurate. He wears shoes with pretty thick soles that give about 2 inches. On his show with Gwendoline Christie (who is 6'3") she called him out on his 6'3" claim and said he wears thick shoes.

Editor Rob he looks a little shorter than Gillan there although she probably has a footwear advantage of a good 3 inches, those heels look to give in the true 4 inch range.

To be fair, he can look a fraction over 6'1 if Jeff Goldblum is 6'4... But then again Jeff could be a bit under 6'4 nowadays. When he was younger he looked at least 6'4, though. Still Craig is only 52, half an inch is quite a big loss for him, i mean, he is not a wrestler or something! Always a chance he "was" a strong 185 and now a bit under it, though. And yeah, he has no idea of how tall a real 6'3 is! Put him next to a Tom Welling, who claims "almost 6'3" and i'd like to see if he'd still claim "6'3" with a straight face!

Remember Andrea that Gwendoline is a very solid 6'3" and is in 5 inch heels there by her own profession. Now they wouldn't give her a full 5 inches perhaps but I'd assume she's near 6 ft 7 in them. Ferguson in my opinion manages to look a weak 6'2" there but he also has generous footwear so around 6'1" seems about right. I don't think she seriously thinks he's 5'10, sometimes a lot of the gags on his shows seem rehearsed. It's just a clear "You're NOT 6 ft 3" thing.

Think 6'. The shoes look like they have at least a 2" heel if not higher. Notice when Gwendoline "outed" him as not being 6'3" he smiled and didn't deny it. No Way is he as tall as he claims.

How much do his shoes give? They look well over 1 inch, so the difference (in shoes) could be less than 2.5! He looks 6' tops next to her and the fact he thinks she's 6'5 tells you lot! If he met a Tom Welling he probably would think he's 6'5 too... Even 6'1.5 "peak" is a stretch, he probably has never been over 6'1!

How much shorter does he look with Gwendoline? It looks at least 5 inches to me and she's gotta be no more than 2 inches advatange over him, making him barely 6'! And what about his shoes? They really look quite thick... And he does claim 6'3? How the hell he got that mark? In heels maybe...

Editor Rob with a long foot she has more chance of a bigger gain than your average women, I could believe there's a 2.5 inch advantage in footwear. I'd say he is roughly near her eyelevel. I wouldn't argue he looked over 6ft 1 there.

Looking at him right now on tv standing next to Ashton Kutcher, I'd say that Ferguson has to be an absolute bare minimum of 6'1", and a good chance of being over 6'1.5". The two look very similar in height; granted, Kutcher stoops a little, and Fergusson appeared to be wearing slightly higher heels

I used to think he was a solid 6'2", and then I saw 6'0.5" Chris Pine on this show, Friday night, and they were closer in height than I expect. I wouldn't be surprised if he's now a flat 6'1". He's definitely not shorter than that, though.

Keith Olbermann looked about 2 inches taller than him. Keith is 192cm or about 6'3.5" so 187cm or 6'1.5" is about right for Craig Ferguson. This listing is correct in my opinion.

Last night he had dylan moran on. I've met dylan who is just under 6ft. Craig appeared to be less than an inch taller.
I think Dylan Moran is 5'11, at least that is what he is most commonly listed, and Craig looked roughly 5-6 cm taller. If you met him and thought he looked a good 5'11.5 or thereabouts, he can be 5'11-5'11.5 range, as you can't say for sure whether he's spot on 5'11 or spot on 5'11.5 by just standing next to someone. You can get a certain range, whiting 2 cm or so, but unless you took a picture with him, you can't be entirely sure.
For example when I met Kristofer Hivju twice in the last year (Norwegian actor who's on Game Of Thrones), we didn't see eye to eye. I had to look up a bit, and I noticed the top of his head was a bit higher than mine, so I know he was a good couple cms taller than myself (I'm 5'11). It could have been around half an inch, or the full inch and some fractions from what I could tell. I didn't get a picutre, so I can't be sure, that's why I can only assume he's 182-184 cm range, and for sure no shorter than 182.
Craig can look anywhere between 185 and 187 cm, he's most likely 186 cm.

Just watched the Youtube segment where Craig welcomes Jim Parsons on the show. Both are standing face to face, and they both look the same height. Parsons claims 6'2", so I'd say Craig is roughly (give or take a half-inch) the same. If Parsons is not lying, the absolute lowest Craig could be is Rob's stated height of six one and 1/2. Supposing footwear on the Youtube segment was fairly similar, that is!

^ I just posted another comment on this page but found this interview where, at 4:10, Ferguson says "I'm six foot two"... Still think he's barely 6'1" though.
Editor Rob good I'll add the other quote too.

Uhhh... Maybe he meant his height in shoes? Don't see how he got 6'3" otherwise.

Duchovny at 6' is one of the rare downgrades for an actor. He looks like he'd measure about 6'1" in his barefeet. Ferguson I have to admit rarely looks over 6'1" next to guests we know the legit height off.

Actually looking more closely at him, 186cm might be more likely. At least 6ft1 anyway

no way this guy is 6'2 and the vid with fillion proves it. he needs a downgrade to 5'11". watch a clip of him and Matthew McConaughey and he looks similar if not slightly shorter.

i think 6'2 is pretty accurate for him
when Hugh Laurie was on his show, they were same height
re:
Heh, I came on here for that same reason. I noticed Craig is normally billed at 6'1", yet when Hugh Laurie (who is considered a bit taller) was on Craig's show they stood at the same height.
Hugh didn't appear to be taller at all, so there's no way there's even a 0.5" difference, unless Craig was wearing a much higher heel, which seem doubtful.

Now that you mention it, he does have bad posture, but who am I to talk? Hehe.
I'm only 5' & my posture must make me look 4'10-11"
I had guessed 6'0" before, but probably because of his posture, 6'1.5" sounds right.
And since when do we call him Fergie? ;-)

I`ve noticed Craig has a bad posture, so if he straighten up a bit i think he would be 6`2-6`2.25.

I have seen too many people on his show that are listed at 6'2" and he (Craig) always appears shorter. What really caught my eye, is when Alec Baldwin (not a natural six footer)appeared about an inch or 2 shorter than Craig. Craig is probably closer to 6'1".

He didn't seem too tall on The Drew Carey show because just about everyone on that show was tall. Hell, Drew Carey and Kathy Kinney were the only average sized people. Weren't Craig and Diedrich Bader the same height on the show?

The man's a max 2 inches taller than Drew Carey, I tell you (even factoring in the slouch)! So that would make him, what? 6'0" maybe.

this may be the best talk show on which to currently base height, since the (suits i imagine at CBS) changed the opening so he has to walk out and greet each guest, so you get a much better guage than on letterman (who is usually up on the platform and its hard to tell often-times lol) . everything lately seems to add up to about 6-1 and change, based on the heighth comparisens.

In an old monolouge Craig tells his weight AND height. Maybe not precise but he said he was 6'2 and 205 pounds.

Yes, I would put him right on par with Letterman. I believe they both claim to be 6-2 but seem to be a bit under (though Letterman may have been 6-2 peak). Ferguson looks shorter than most truely tall guests (6-3+), but he's definitely over 6-1.

In a recent show with Allison Janney (she is 6 feet and was wearing high heels of about 6 cm) he was still a bit taller than her. So I think 187/188 is quite right.

Okay, this is a detour to what the posts on this site are about, but Mr. R., I'm an aspiring screenwriter. Is it like feeding a Tic Tak to a whale in terms of getting a break in Hollywood as a screenwriter? And just out of curiousity, what's like living in glitzy Hollywood? I'm a native of Connecticut so I'm sure it would be pretty foreign to me! :-)

Tell you what Smoke, every now and then I have meetings at CBS in Hollywood. One day, I will get over to Fergie's studio, and try to size him up for you. Or, you can come and visit me, and we can go together. If you can get to Mexico, you can get to LA!

May I add that, with all due respect to the hilarious Craig Kilborn, I do enjoy the Late Late Show a little bit more now than Fergie has taken over. However, as much as I enjoy his humour and the class that comes along with it, I also seem to be his biggest critic as far as height goes. Virtually every guest I've seen him with, he just looks like more of a 6'1" guy every time I see him. Sorry Rob, he just doesn't strikingly TALL! Now granted he is still tallish, like me, but I think that I guy can truely call himself tall when he's at the 6'2" mark (this is minimum height for many a Tall People's Club for men) and Fergie just doesn't look it. Again I think he's a great funnyman who also carries himself with a lot of class, but one thing Kilborn had on him was the height. He just doesn't quite look 6'2", maybe somebody else enjoys the show as much as I do out there!

Caught another episode of his show with legendary boxing promoter Don King as a guest and King is billed as being 6'2" (the nature and validity of his billings are infamous) and Fergie still looked about an inch shorter. Now it might be the angle of the camera that shows him whenever he his greeting a guest, but to me it has been several celebs now that appear to show Fergie standing quite a bit under 6'2". Just how concrete could he have made this listing for himself while he was still standing at his peak?

I caught a recent episode of his show on which Tony Hawk was a guest. I truely think Tony is a solid 188 cm, and he looked atleast an inch taller than Ferguson while wearing very flat healed sneakers, Ferguson was in dress shoes with about a 1 inch heal. Those in the U.K may have a good idea as to his height, but I really doubt him truely being 6'2". Compared to Tony Hawk he really did look about 6'0", again Tony has always looked a solid 6'2", and Ferguson to me looked about 2 inches shorter, even with Hawk wearing flatter shoes.
