Not sure if he was downgraded as I think I remember a 5'10.5" listing for him here. Anyways, I wonder how tall you would peg the Impractical Jokers (well the three remaining ones) here
Click Here I remember on another page someone had Q in that 5 foot 9 to 5 foot 10 range and the rest in the 5 foot 8 to 5 foot 9 range, and I think that is quite possible no?
Editor Rob
5ft 8-9 for them.

Add his How I met your mother Kevin role to the description he had like 10 Episodes or so in Season 7 and he gets 5ft10 1/2

whats his morning height rob?
Editor Rob
at least 5ft 11
MaskDeMasque said on 1/Jan/21
I thought him and John looked both like strong 5'9/weak 5'10 dudes in Harold and Kumar. I think they are both around the 177cm mark.
pov said on 19/Oct/19
Spot on rob. I think he’s a perfect example of a 5”10 guy. Probably 5”11 in the morning, doesn’t drop below 5”10. In last harold and kumar cho looked a bit taller than him but I think he wears heels.

Harold and Kumar was quality, funny as hell, Yh I think generally Kal is a bit taller than John cho, you have to factor in a few things like Cho's Hair adds an inch also, Cho could look 5'10 might be bit under I think this listing is good for Kal, Legit 5'10 range guy, Would probably be 178-179cm
S.J.H said on 1/Feb/17
I don't think john cho was 5'10 mostly likely fraction under and kal penn is right at 5'10
HonestSlovene said on 30/Jan/17
Yes average India is roughly about 5'7-5'7.5" range and it fluctuates around 1 inch depending on location. I'd say Kal is about 5'10" flat, maybe even a weak 5'10" like 5'9.75" one could argue but nothing over 5'10".
Mat said on 22/May/16
Click Here Within 1 cm of John Cho with footwear disadvantage. I'd say the listing sounds right. 179 cm is really the most he could be. So this listing is a good shout
BT said on 1/May/16
I would say he can look a weak, flat or strong 5'10 guy. Probably 5'10 flat is what I'm leaning towards. It's worth mentioning though that he hasn't got the greatest posture and he does tend to wear flat footwear.
kob said on 17/Feb/16
Pakistanis are taller than Indians no doubt. When I went back to Pakistan, I constantly saw guys above 5'8. Many were even 5'11-6ft. They're getting taller. I'd say in cities like Lahore, the average is more 5'9-5'10 range. The tallest dude, also a friend of mine, I saw there was 6'3, and he was from a low caste/poor family in a village. Average Indian is 5'7 at most.

People from north-west part of indian subcontinent(Punjabis,Rajastanis,Haryanvis,Kashmiris,Sindhis and Pathans) are the tallest in the whole indian subcontinent.No wonder why Pakistanis are taller than Indians.

5"9 no taller definitely not 5"11 to 6 feet. Gotta love when people who know they're short have to agree that other short people are "tall" to reassure themselves that they aren't miniscule... FACT.

Jane is a perfect example of ignorant narrow minded self-absurd stupid.
I can give you tons of people who are below 5'7 and make million more money that those your fetish tall men. Example Messi the footballer i bet he has a great terms of relationship "already has a wife and child", career "world greatest footballer at moment" , confidence " i bet millions of girls who are taller than him would kill just to come and meet and shake his hand and etc which is money. Messi is not only one i can bring up many more other names such as
1.Daniel Radcliff The harry potter actor,
2.Andrew Carnegie was a very successful entrepreneur, industrialist and philanthropist. He was one of the wealthiest businessman in America
3.Danny Devito is an accomplished actor, producer and director. He is 5 foot even. He first began work as a beautician, but after developing an interest in acting,he landed many roles in successful films and television shows. You can read more about Danny Devito
4.Gus Grissom was the second American astronaut to travel to space. He was 5 foot, 5 inches tall. He was the command pilot for Gemini 3, one of the first manned flights. Sadly, he died during a simulated launch while preparing for another trip.
5.The fourth president of the United States, James Madison, was 5'4". He was small boned and weighed just about 100 pounds. He is considered one of the founding fathers of America. He was an author of the Bill of Rights and also worked to abolish slavery
AT LAST BUT NOT LEAST TOME CRUISE which says it all.

Kal Penn is 6'1..I have met him couple of times..I am 5'10 in my heels and he was good 3 inches taller then me..He looks tall as he does in his Movies....And many Indian guys are 6ft and over...As a girl I like guys who are 6ft and over, but not 6'3 and over...NEVER under 5'11 and a half..I like slim tall guys and good looking guys..All girls do I promise you that. Guys who are 5'11 and over have good lives which include good intimate moments, which only make you happy and pleasurable, and they also have good personality because of not being self-conscious but confident.. Guys under 5'11 have a terrible life in terms of relationships, career, confidence etc. FACT!!!.

Kal is 5'11 without shoes as I have stood next to him and am 5'10 and he literally towered over me when he didnt even have shoes..The dude is tall and loosk tall on-screen and off-screen.
Towered you when there "was" 1" difference? Don't think so pal. He's 5'10.25 at most like listed.

I would go for 5'10 too but only with 1,5-2cm shoes
for neil Patrick H. weak 5'11 out of bed at best.. barely taller than Kal even tho he has superior posture

Kal pel and John cho both look smaller than 5'10,not to mention 5'11.I think 5'8 is a suitable height for them.
So just because they look smaller to you on screen they should be downgraded without any actual height reference? Mhm...

Dangler said on 21/Feb/09
He went to my university to try to convince us to vote for Barack Obama. He looked exactly the same height as me (exactly 178cm). I'm not sure that I'd give him the extra .25". His hair is extremely thick which can give him the illusion of an extra quarter inch or so. It's strange to hear him talk when he isn't acting. He is much better at speaking when his lines are scripted.

im pretty sure kal penn is taller than john cho,like what celebheights lists.still,most sites list kal at like 5'9 or something while john cho gets 5'10..completely wrong.kal is definitely taller.
5'10 barefoot said on 7/Jul/08
looking at the pictures, i noticed the footwear by john cho and appears to wearing some type of dress shoes, which apparently give him extra height... and penn is wearing some type of skateboarding shoes.... they're the same height...the end.. n plus his hair(cho) is spiked up, way up there...

Lets not go crazy guys,This is how a strong 5`10 looks,Lets not forget that 5`10 isnt short,Its actually a great height if its LEGIT,People like stallone,mark wahlberg and van damme have destroyed 5`10 by claiming it for themselves even though they are less.

you couldn't rule out 179cm, but the point was thought of him sub 5ft 10 was much harder to argue.

Kal may need a downgrade, or Cho needs an upgrade, as he regularly looks an inch taller than Kal. Although he seems to be straighter in most pics. I was suprised when Doogie wasn't much taller then these guys in the White Castle scene. Most the movie these guys appeared 5'7" - 8" or so.

pri said on 6/Jul/07
actually, i think he's about 5'10 because Cho's hair is spiked and sometimes guy's dress shoes have like one inch heels so just keep it at 5'10 or a little higher but not more than an inch.
MD said on 5/Jul/07
He's also not over 5'10". My point was that if John Cho is listed at 5'10", Kal shouldn't be listed anymore than 5'10".
Leung said on 4/Jul/07
Kal Penn at 5’10” yes I believe that.
But Kal Penn taller than John Cho? I’m not buying that at all, everything I have seen indicates that Cho is taller than Penn.
Rob, you need to consider either downgrading Penn or upgrading Cho.
