The height difference between Martin Lawrence and the late Thomas Mikal Ford was no more than 7 inches. The video link that I provided shows the two actors right next to each other communicating, and you clearly see a 6'4'' man next to a 5'9'' or 5'10'' man in the first 37 seconds of that video.
In the Bad Boys video link that I provided, 6'2'' Will Smith looks, at the very most, 4 inches taller than Martin Lawrence. Martin could actually be taller than 5'9,'' so a minimum 5'9'' description should never be questioned.
Eddie Murphy has claimed and has been listed as 5'10'' throughout his career. But I think he is taller, closer to 5'11.'' Judge Reinhold has described himself as being 6'2,''and Murphy never looked much shorter than him, as evidenced below:

Arsenio Hall might be 5'11'' and change, as he always looked taller than Eddie Murphy. Where am I going with all of this? Well, below is a photo of Martin, Arsenio, Eddie, and Danny Glover, and Martin is looking very close in height to Arsenio and Eddie, while not even standing fully upright:

Also, Tea Leoni, who has been described as 5'7,'' 5'8,'' AND 5'9,'' wore boots in Bad Boys 1, and she was still an inch shorter than Martin.
Again, Martin Lawrence has to be at least 5'9.''

Canson, I've seen Bad Boys 1 multiple times, and Martin was never more than 5 inches shorter than 6'2'' Will Smith, and sometimes, the height difference between the two appeared even less than that. Watch the scene where Mike (Smith) discovers that Marcus (Lawrence) is wearing his silk shirt, and tell me if there is more than 4 inches of height difference between them. Actually, let me provide that clip for you:
Click Here
In the video that I posted before of Martin with 6'4'' Thomas Mikal Ford, Martin looked no shorter than 5'9.'' And from what I remember of Nothing to Lose, Martin was slouching throughout the film because of his physical comedy, so you will never get a clear estimate of the height difference between him and 6'5'' Tim Robbins. Everything I have seen of Martin points to a 5'9'' man, at least.
I’ve also seen all of the Bad Boy movies many times and Smith is not just 5” taller than Martin Lawrence. Eddie Murphy is taller than Lawrence and so is arsenio hall. Your pics are not very good for illustrating height. Here is a better one of the entire cast. Ford isn’t standing at his best there but when he does, he has more of a difference on Lawrence than I have on my wife who is 5’7 1/2-5’8 range (I’m 6’4-6’4.5 range). Also Tim r is under 6’5 and Martin doesn’t even come quite to his chin.

Maryland, why does Martin look 5'9'' - 5'10'' in the link that I posted of him with his late 6'4'' co-star Thomas Mikal Ford, if he is only 5'7?'' Why does he only look 4-5 inches shorter than 6'2'' Will Smith in Bad Boys 1, if he is only 5'7?''

I still believe that Martin Lawrence's peak height was 5'9.'' In the above clip from a 1993 episode of his famous sitcom, Lawrence and late actor Thomas Mikal Ford walk into a green room, and Lawrence looks no more than 7 inches shorter than his co-star. Thomas Mikal Ford was 6'4.''

Rob, in this video from the Martin sitcom, you can see from 00:38 to 00:42 Lawrence with his reportedly 5'6'' co-star Carl Anthony Payne II. It's easy to make a case for Martin Lawrence being 5'8'' in this video, but can you make a case of Lawrence being 5'9," given the height difference between the two actors?

5'7 sounds about right, probably 5'8 in certain footwear. He's short but not ridiculously short as he's taller than Cole and the late Sherman Helmsley.

I have to compare him a bit more, but he always looks like a pretty short guy to me. I'd definitely say 5'6.75" seems quite likely. Maybe 5'6.5"-5'7" is a minimum/max range for him.

He was consistently shorter than 171 cm Jerry Bruckheimer at the Walk of Fame ceremony for Jerry in series of full pics and video so 5'7" is the most I'd guess.

@James: fair enough. And again my apologies. How tall do you think Martin is? He said 5'7/5'8 before on his show and that episode was when he was unemployed. He never looked much taller than Tisha or Tichina and looked noticeably shorter than Tommy. so I'd roll quick with 5'7 barefoot.

In Martin's defense, he does look like he is tilting his head and/or body in some of those photos. Tom Cruise is an actor who I don't think is as short as people make him out to be. To me, Cruise is a 5'9'' guy who likes tall women (5'9''+), who like to wear heels. Going back to Martin, maybe he lost some height? In the Open Season premiere, he didn't look towered over by Ashton Kutcher, who is arguably 6'3''.

the shredder, I have never heard Martin Lawrence talk about his height aside from the episode of Martin where he said over the phone that he was 5'7'', 5'8'' and how he wasn't very tall. But in Blue Streak, his drivers' license (or fake police ID?) stated that he was 5'9''. Either way, he was in character. I think 5'9'' is more accurate based on Bad Boys.

Pause at 1:17 and you will see our boot-wearing, damsel-in-distress played by Tea Leoni walking pass Det. Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence), Det. Mike Lowrey (Will Smith), and Mrs. Theresa Burnett (Theresa Randle). Tea Leoni has been listed as both 5'7'' and 5'8'', and when you pause this clip at that point, you will see that Martin Lawrence has an inch to an inch and a half on her. Also, at the very beginning of this clip, you will see Martin's character being referred to as "the short one" (Will's character is "the tall one"), so there would be no reason for Lawrence to be wearing lifts.
Again, I emphasize that Martin Lawrence is 5'9." If he appears shorter, he is usually slouching for the purpose of performing physical comedy. But in action films where he has to be more serious, he has better posture. That is all.

Underrated in talent and underestimated in height. He is 5'9''. No more than 5 inches shorter than 6'2'' Will Smith in Bad Boys. Same height as Tea Leoni and Gabrielle Union (both 5'7'') when both of them were in boots high heels, respectively. An inch and a half taller than John Leguizamo in What's The Worst Than Can Happen. Less than 3 inches shorter than Luke Wilson in Blue Streak. All evidence points to Martin Lawrence being 5'9".

Saw this guy up close. I'm 5'7.5 and he looked about an inch taller. However, I think he was wearing boots, so this may have given him almost two additinal inches. He definitely is in the range of 5'7-5'8.

He was shorter than paul giamatti in big momma's house. Quite short next to terrence howard, luke wilson and will smith. 5 foot 7 is good for him.

If Will Smith is 6'2'', then Martin Lawrence is 5'9''. In Bad Boys I, Lawrence never looked more than 5 inches shorter than Smith. It wouldn't even make sense for Lawrence to wear lifts because according to Tea Leoni's dialogue in the movie, Mike (Smith) was "the tall one" and Marcus (Lawrence) was "the short one".

@Rob its interesting what you said about somebody's proportions making them look taller/shorter than they are. Lawrence does look 170cm when compared to other actors but can look 5'8". Jack Nicholson on the other hand was 5'9.5" at his peak but his proportions always made him look on the short side, I think.

Doesn't look like the same height in Big Mommas: Like Father Like Son with his movie son Brandon T. Jackson, who is also listed as 5'7" and was in several other movies where he looked the height exactly. He made Brandon look tall... he looked like he was giving up 1.5 inches to Brandon. So 5'5.5" wouldn't be far fetched.

I'd have to go with an earlier post that Martin Lawrence is about 5'3", maybe 5'4". Nice guy though...not as "jerky" as some of his characters he plays.

i wore big shoes and insoles for about a year and my success with women decreased dramatically.. my posture wasn't as good, i didn't appear proportional, and i never really felt comfortable..
i agree that it's all about attitude and how you come off to others and that most women could care less.. they might say that they do, but i've dated girls 5'6 who said they'd only date 6'+ guys.. haha.. i guess it's more of a 6' level of confidence that they're after.

I know this is kinda besides the point, but I just really wanna say that I just can't understand this whole fuss about height!!! And as a woman, I most certainly cannot support the claim that tall men are preferred over short men, coz height is hardly an issue!! I'm not going to go into the whole personality/character speech coz I know nobody's tryin to hear that, so I'll stick to physical talk and my word on that is that, like in a woman, it's all about proportion. Martin Lawrence is a perfect example of great proportion. While standing at 5'6, he looks no less better than a 6 footer with good proportion. A nice face doesn't hurt him either. Kylie Minogue is a great example of a woman with short stature but great proportion...she's only 5'0, and she's one of the most desirable women on the planet! Same goes for Christina Milian (5'1), Alyssa Milano (5'1), Christina Aguilera (5'2), Jada Pinkett (5'0), Shakira (4'11)...did I make my point?
I'll conclude by mentioning that I do practice what I preach as I'm very happily married to a 5'5 man, and out of all the 5'9ers and 6'2ers I dated before him, my attraction to them didn't compare to my attraction to him.
So to all 'short' men out there (and I put the word 'short' in speech marks as the world's idea of short is really not that short...i understand 5'0 as bein short on a man, but 5'6???), don't regard your height as a curse. It's part of who you are and what makes you special!! I assure you there are plenty of women who want you it's just that it's the tall men who have the confidence to make that first move! Hence the ridiculous statistics that show that women prefer tall men. It's only coz the shorter men don't have the guts to chat up a woman thinking they're gonna be turned down. And thing is gentlemen, women are NEVER gonna make the first move. So if she likes you, you'll never know unless you take that step. Tall, short...it don't matter. A woman does not woo - she is wooed. And that's how it always will be lol.
I'm out yall. God bless!!

Saw him with William Fichtner in some interchangeable Martin Lawrence vehicle (apparently What's the Worst That Could Happen?), Lawrence appeared about 6 inches shorter than Fichtner. Though slouching in this particular photo, Lawrence didn't appear much taller when more upright in the scene:

Since Fichtner is about 6'0.5", Lawrence is probably 5'6"-5'7".

So just say if John is 5'6 and was in flats , then Martin pulled off 5'7 + , But if Glenn's 5'7 to 5'8 guess is right for John , then Martin pulled off 5'9-ish for sure ! ... Look at other photos of Martin ! ... The man is a very short , very weak 5'7 at most ! ... He said in an episode of " Martin " that he was 5'7 haaaaaaa 5'8 ! ... NO , I DON'T THINK MARTIN IS ANYWHERE NEAR 5'9 !

With the Wild Hogs Lawrence does not look passed 5'6.5 to me , so I would say John and Martin are both closer to 5 ft 6 and Martin was wearing lifts in that movie ! ... Another thing is that Glenn saw Mike Myers more 5'6ish then 5'7ish , and Martin was the same height as him on the MTV Movie Awards of 2003 ! ... Also photos of John and Spike Lee , who glenn thought was 5'5 max , theres not much between them at all !

" I ain't that tall ! 5'7 - 5'8 ! "

Regarding hospital reports, as a physician I can tell you that most records simply record what the patient reports as their height. Anyone that has ever been a patient in a hospital, even just the ER knows that it would be unusual for their height to actually be measured.
It is similar to one's driver's license, they simply ask what your height and weight are and it gets recorded.

Editor Rob that whole mention before it was edited over there, I don't think it was to do with hospital to be honest...
Speaking of hospitals, in the UK at least if you go for a surgery for instance, you might get measured...in centimetres! For the record, my hospital record has height=173cm ;-)

TGRI, I wouldn't rely on a DVD cover to determine heights. On the Undercover Brother DVD, Denise Richards is given an extremely nice posterior, but even she admitted that the cover was digitally altered to increase her sex appeal. The Nothing To Lose cover could have been digitally altered to enhance the differences of the two characters. Wealthy, extremely tall white guy next to a poor, really short black guy. The shot looks completely exaggerated to me.

If you watch the recent movie "Rebound" he walks in the basketball lockeroom with a player who is stated as a 6 foot 2 player on the team had about 3.5 inches on martin lawrence, so 5 foot 10.5 could very well be a possiblity. Unless he wore lifts for the scenes throughout the entire movie, but I highly doubt.

TGRI, you're wrong. How did you know that Will Smith was barefoot in that scene in Bad Boys? I'm pretty sure he was still wearing his black high-top Nikes and Smith was only slightly slouching while camera mugging. Plus, in that scene where there is a close-up shot, Will Smith actually looks less than 5 inches taller than Martin. Plus, as a 5'8'' Tea Leoni walks passed them in very high heels, she still looks about the same height as Lawrence. I would say that Martin may have been wearing lifts in that scene but the lifts made him look about 5'10.5'' rather than 5'9''. Trust me, I've seen this movie enough times to notice.

Lawrence wears special shoes. Compare him with Eddie Murphy in Life, who is probably 5'9.5. There's a solid 2" difference.

I think Martin Lawrence is 5'9''. Throughout Bad Boys I, the height difference between him and the 6'2'' Will Smith was no more than 5 inches. Sometimes, it appeared less (of course, this was probably for the purpose of shooting close-ups). Tea Leoni is 5'8'' and she was only the same height as Lawrence because her boots gave her an advantage. In Bad Boys II, a 5'7'' Gabrielle Union was the same height as Lawrence ONLY because she had on 2-3 inches heels. Finally, as mentioned, Lawrence was a lot taller than Leguizamo in 'Whats the Worst That Can Happen'. If Leguizamo is 5'8'', Martin Lawrence has to be at least 5'9''. In Nothing to Lose, Martin looked small because Tim Robbins is 6'5''!!!! Don't believe the hype. Martin Lawrence is not that short.
