Hey Rob,
I remember a while back you showed him with some basketball players but he didn’t stand up straight if I recall. You think you can bump him up to 5’11.5? Consistently looks closer to 6’ but like most guys in his range fall short by a fraction. Maybe 5’11.25

LOL, I actually used to think this guy was around 6'2" !

I guess it was the way he carried himself.

I don't think dave is 5ft11, I think he's 5ft10.5 and that's the highest I'd give him

TE said on 14/Jun/21
Hi people, I'm new to comments so yeah! Anyway, i always thought that this guy was at least 5 foot 9 or slightly taller so that i don't have to pleasure in disappointing myself once i find out his real height. Celebs always fake their heights but in this case I'm genuinely surprised, hes tall, taller than i expected.

I use to think he was 6'0. He stand loose with Jimmy Fallon and doesn't look shorter consider Dave had lesser footwear so if Fallon falls into lowest 181cm then i did believe a full 182cm or at least 5'11 1/2 for Dave. Under listed a big time just like Ryan Reynolds, Christopher Backus and John Francis Daley those were at least 1/2" under listed too.

Pat m said on 5/Dec/20
5ft11.5 on the nose, consistently looks over 5ft11, underlisted here

Used to think he was much taller than this...

Nathan Hatton said on 5/Oct/20
He looks a strong 5'11 range guy, 181-182cm might be possible, a flat 5'11 is the minimum he looks imo.

Nik Ashton said on 20/Jun/20
I can see why the average guess is so high!

2pacalypse wow said on 19/Jun/20
@Peter175, no he's not. They're very similar. I'd argue Chris Rock is a sold 5'10" though.

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 27/May/20
5'11 1/2 for sure unless he wear lift. If Dave stay 5'11 flat then those 5'11-er Sean Patrick Flanery, Arnold, Dougray Scott, Shane West, Colm Meaney, Alan Tudyk all need to be down 5'10 1/2 no arguement. 181.5-182cm is how Dave often look.

Eric W. Tam said on 23/Feb/20
Christ, he looks tall as Tyrone Biggums. Thought he was like 6'5! Well ig uess 5'11.5 it is.

Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 13/Nov/19
Jerry Seinfield listed the same but was only a fraction hair up taller than a bald Dave Chappelle. Dave is more legit 5'11.

Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 20/May/19
There isn't 1/2" between Jimmy Fallon and Dave. Dave needs an upgrade for sure at 5'11.25" if Jimmy get the .5" mark.

James G. said on 5/Jan/19
He’s 5’11.5,” and a touch, almost sure of it. He can pull off 6’0” often, but falls short of the mark. He should claim 182 cm.

@Canson

I think Chappell’s height might be a bit more than 5’11” but I really did think 6’0”. Maybe 5’11.25-.5”, 5’11” solid is definitely his worst.

Nik said on 29/Apr/18
5 ft 11 and a little bit of change!

Junior Hernandez said on 4/Feb/18
Dave is 181cm really not this low and Chris Rock probably 5'10.25".

Canson said on 26/Nov/17
@Anonymous: a true 6’4 is likely closer to 99 if not slightly above. 6’5 is closer to 99.5. 6’5” barefoot the true definition of it is not a common height neither is a legit 6’4” but of course not as uncommon as 6’5”. 6’6” is even less common and very rare

Christian-6'5 3/8 said on 26/Nov/17
@Anonynous

I think 6'5" is more than 99.1%, because I'm a strong 6'5" and I rarely see anyone taller than me in the streets, maybe only 1 in every 500 guys are taller.

Jtm said on 25/Nov/17
He's about 5'10. Look at him with blake griffin.

Anonymous said on 24/Nov/17
6'4 a true 6'4 is like 98% and 6'5 is like 99.1% 6'6 is 99.8 percentile.

Faza said on 23/Nov/17
Dave can look near his 6ft listing imo maybe he is in the 181cm club though looks a solid 5 11 range guy at worst

Tony said on 20/Nov/17
Rob check it out bro

Dave is 2.5 to 3" taller than Norman Reedus from walking dead.

The 6 feet claim could be true, or perhaps he could of had a peak height.

Junior said on 16/Aug/17
He look at least the same height as Jimmy Fallon.

S.J.H said on 12/Jul/17
Jerry Seinfield had to be at least 0.5" lower than Dave Chappelle.

Canson said on 16/Apr/17
@Christian: I agree partially but the thing with what we use is that 6'3" is not created equally. Some true 6'2-6'2.5 guys claim 6'3 whereas some 6'3-6'3.5 claim 6'4". So a true 6'3" may actually be 98 to 99%ile in reality. I would say that everything is probs fraction off currently

Christian-196.8cm (6ft5.5)Noon said on 16/Apr/17
In my opinion "very tall" would be only within the 99+ percentile. 6ft3 isn't quite 99, more like 97-98.

Canson said on 8/Apr/17
TBH he can look very tall on his new show with how they magnify his frame. Meaning taller than 6'0"

Mike Jones said on 17/Jan/17
Looks about an 1-1.5 under Fallon, but Dave does seem slouching a bit and Fallon has a big heel

The Horse of FUNK said on 13/Nov/16
Yep, just watched the SNL skit with Dave and Chris Rock about the election and I was startled when I saw him side-by-side with Chris. I always believed he was a genuine 183-184cm afternoon guy. He can give a tall impression, especially in his stand-ups where he's by himself. But he only had about 2cm on Chris. I see the photo below of Dave next to 6'2" measured Michael Sam, as well, and Sam's got an EASY 3 inches on him.

I guess it's his build and the fact that he used to wear a lot of Timberland style boots back in the day that gave him a taller impression. "Timbs", as they were called, were popular and stylish boots in American black culture at the time.

Elias said on 26/Dec/15
he is the same height as Neil Patrick Harris in "Undercover brother"

Sam said on 29/Oct/15
Yeah, a bit of a chameleon in terms of looking anything from 5'11" to 6'0", sometimes looks barely 5'11" though...sometimes he may stand better and come off as a six footer in boots but slouching can look barely 5'11". Wonder how he'd measure up to guys like Matthew McConaughey, Jake Gyllenhaal, Leonardo DiCaprio, etc.

MrTBlack said on 16/Oct/15
Hey Rob, didn't chapelle have a page on here before ? Did really think he was 6'0" maybe even 6'1"!

the shredder said on 16/Oct/15
He was same or slightly less than Cary Elwes in Men In Tights , 5'11 is fair but his max. Might be weak 5'11..

Dave178 said on 16/Oct/15
5'11" sounds about right. He looked about that height standing next to 5'9" 1/4 Eddie Murphy in The Nutty Professor.

Sam said on 16/Oct/15
I'd agree Chappelle looks 5'11" tops there with Blake Griffin.

Sam said on 16/Oct/15
IMO Dicaprio looks 5'11" quite often, in some circumstances other 5'11" rangers like Jon Bernthal or Christopher Nolan can seem to edge him out. I got a similar impression with Chappelle such as edged out by Wayne Brady and no taller than Cary Elwes. At times though he can look at bit taller, not much under Charlie Murphy.

jtm said on 16/Oct/15
i remember he had a listing here before and was 6'0. i always knew that wasn't accurate. he actually looks more 5'10 to me. barely taller than eddie murphy in the nutty professor.

MD said on 16/Oct/15
Dave is one of those rare ones where I'd not be surprised after further investigation is actually taller than his listing. I've seen this guy look as low as nearly 5'10" and as tall as 6'0". He has pretty poor posture most of the time.

Sam said on 15/Oct/15
Thanks for adding him. I think he looks within the 5'11"-6'0" range generally. I doubt he'd measure any shorter with good posture than someone like Leonardo Dicaprio.
