@Editor Rob He got a 2inch increase with that lift/footwear compare to barefoot right?

Editor RobHe might have had about 2 inches worth (shoe+lift), but I don't know if the character wears them in the show a lot

You see that "Roger Stone" appears to wear lifts, as he comes down a lot more than "Don Draper" does when he takes off his shoes...it looks like around a 3 inch difference, at the minimum..

Editor RobThat definitely was the intention, to show the character wears them.

Slattery with Stephen Colbert: Click Here
Even though Slattery's posture isn't optimal it still seems like more than a fraction difference.
What do you think Rob?

Editor Rob Colbert can look taller, but how much if both were similar posture I'm not sure.

I just saw Slattery on 30 Rock, next to Alec Baldwin he seemed 5'10 max, more like a strong 5'9 range.

Saw John tonight at screening of his new film "God's Pocket". This was Philip Seymour Hoffman's last completed film role. John walked past me three times, and each time he was between 5-8 and 5-9. Not even close to 5-10.

Yeah, he's never looked 5'10", too me. Pretty great proportions, and all, but 5'10" he is not.

In episode 3 of season 1, there is a scene where Hamm and Slattery are about to enter the office of the company primary owner who doesn't wear shoes in the office. So before entering they both take their shoes off, and Hamm's character gives a surprising look at Slattery;s character becasue while in shoes he is about an inch shorter without them he is 2.5-3 inches shorter. Kind of an inside joke on the show I guess. So 5-9.5 seems about right.

Just saw him on SNL and he was at least two inches shorter than Jon Hamm, who I've seen listed at 5'11".

5'4"? That's crazy talk. 5'10" sounds about right seeing that the girl who plays Joan is 5'7" and when she's wearing heels,which look about 3-4 inches,she seems to be the same height as him. He's not short at all

I met him at a guitar convention a few years ago. He looked around the 5'4"-5'5" range. Very nice guy.

He didn't look quite this short when I saw him in concert last night at The Norfolk Theatre. I'd say he looked more 5'5. His footwear may have been suspect, though.

I know Rick and he's about 5'6'' but he plays likes he's 10 feet tall. Still has all of his own hair and a better human being you will never know, he'd give the shirt off his back to help someone.

He worked for anybody. He and Leslie West were wasted for years much like Jack Bruce. He did a Captain Crunch 45rpm around '84. He sessioned for anything including a WWF album. Totally broke like Peter Frampton who was living in a flop house apartment in '86 in Hollywood doing sessions. Really sad seeing them go down. I think RD is a born again christian now. Sure beats playing a biker bar down the street from Coors Brewery to 28 people. Quiet Riot played the same place. 17,000 person sell-out at McNicols Arena to 87 people in a bar with moose heads on the wall in 10 years.

Same height as when I saw The McCoys in '66: real short. It was as almost as if his face aged and the body didn't.

The song Derringer did for Hulk Hogan is one of my personal favorites. It's called "Real American".

Wow, I never knew he was quite *that* compact. Is he sitting down?
He did a version of "Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo" for the WWF back in the mid-80s, I think with Mean Gene Okerlund.
"Guitars And Women" is a great one from the 70s. Derringer rules.
