Based on the pics of Damon, Clooney, and Pitt in their socks, Damon looks to be a 0.5-1" shorter then Clooney, who in turn looks to be 2 inches shorter then Pitt! So if Damon is really 5ft10, then would 5ft10.5-5ft11 for Clooney and 5ft10-5ft10.5( after subtracting his built up slippers) for Pitt sound accurate?
What I don't get is why Frank2 at 5ft11 would continually refer to Damon as 5ft8? If Damon is truly 5ft10, that's a pretty big difference at 5ft8!

Exactly. Clooney is 5'11.5" and probably in lifts which is why he towered over 5'10"-5'11" Colin Farrell.

The pic of clooney, pitt and damon on the boat shows to me that damon looks a solid 177cm-178cm or 5'10". Barely an inch smaller than clooney and both are in socks. Pitt however, wasn't. Hiding something maybe? Mr. insecure.

Rising force you yourself once said Damon is in the 5'8-5'9 region, but changed your mind to support your Clooney is 1/2 inch away from 6'0 claims. They're all three lift wearers, trust me on this one
I changed my mind on Damon because he looks close to Pitt and Clooney's height. I think without lifts both Pitt and Damon are around 5'10". I also trust Glenn's 5'10" estimate. I'd bet anything that Clooney isn't under 5'10". He slouches and can still look tall. He towered over Colin Farrell even while slouching.
Matt is always clearly a couple of inches taller than 5'8" Mark Wahlberg. Even in pretty normal shoes at a basketball game.

Nice pic tellem, and alot of ppl say Cheadle is only 5'7 including Juaquin Phoenix (hotel rawanda extras). Plus we have to factor in footwear with Damon,he's 5'8 barefoot and prolly in his big lifts grazes 5'10.75-5'11 with hair and in normal lifts 5'10, makes bookoo sense! 5'10 barefoot is just too high for the lift-wearing damon!

I believe he's around 176 cm (5'9.25), but he's tricky because of his big frame, which can give him a big look (with lifts) or a stocky short look (especially barefoot) at the same time.

No James, my sister met Ford!
I'd give Damon 5ft9 tops, but not much more then that. He wears big boots and built up shoes in a lot of his films from The Bourne series, Rounders, to Goodwill Hunting. I don't doubt he can look in the 5ft11 range with shoes, but I'd be willing to bet they're lifts. I don't know if you've ever seen School Ties but there's a film where he definitely looks 5ft9.

Clooney at 5-9 is ridiculous on every level. Tell me how he managed to have 2 or 3 inches on Colin Farrell even while he was slouching!

I think he's 5'8 as well, he's was barely taller than wahlberg who I think is 5'7 barefeet and I heard Damon were lifts in the movie. Oh & he's shorter than 5'9 something kinnear. I'm with Viper on this one, 5'8 barefoot, 5'10 in lifts, 5'11 in Pitt like lifts, and never ever looks 6'0 to me.
I think this would make alot of sense, keep in mind ppl, these are non-lift heights, barefoot only!!
Damon: 5'8 barefoot
Clooney: 5'9 barefoot
Pitt 5'9.5-5'10 max barefoot
I would seriously bet on that, I would definately lay money down that those were correct and i'd bet if they were measured barefoot, i'd be right. Cept they could never measure Pitt barefoot, his lifts are likely glued to his feet, or Pitt would say somethng like "let me measure in slippers, then just subtract .25inch for the slipper height" with lifts hidden in the slippers, lol! Either way, i'd be richer after the bet!

The Good Shepherd was on last night and I caught a few minutes of it. The one particular scene I saw had Damon standing barefoot in the bathroom of his house, and honestly he looked nowhere near 5ft10! If I were to guess I'd say he looked 5ft7-5ft8 tops in that scene, no more! I'm sure he can pull off looking 5ft10-5ft11 in lifts, but I'd be willing to bet he's no more then 5ft8-5ft8.5 barefoot!
As I've mentioned before my ex(5ft7) met him about ten years ago, and she said he was only a little taller then her, and much shorter then me(5ft11.25)!

i think the man is 5'10 and wears a sleight lift, obviously near dicaprio. Its kinda weird why he would, but I would assume he doesn't go crazy with lifts like pitt because few people can handle looking much taller, without looking out of proportion.

Jessica: 2 possibilities: or even 3. You either didn't meet Damon cause he sure ain't no 5'6" guy. Or you are way taller than you think...or for me the most probable out of the 3: you have no clue how to estimate height on a stocky guy like Damon. sorry. He is average and minimum 176 cm but probably taller.

Complex is right. Closer to 5'9" than 5'10" barefoot not including hair style.A quick shot of his character "Jason bourne's" driver's in one of the Bourne movies stated 5'9" as his height. Why would they downgrade the leading action star's character height from 5'10" unless Matt is infact 5'9" dead on in reality. Wasn't much taller than his female leads in the films. Good posture, dress suits and dress shoes aid him in appearing 5'10" plus. Still under Clooney by 1.5"-2" in Oceans as well.

Yeah, that's true tellem, I remember at the end when he's tricking him into writing that check that they're nearly the same height, height is a tricky thing. Really hard to tell with celebs, Baldwin doesn't really come across as a lift wearer, but i'd say Damon is most definately a lift-wearer. I really think if someone put a tape measure behind Damon and didn't count his hair, it'd be 5'9 at the most.

Alec Baldwin is more between 5'10 and 5'11 max, not closer to 6 barefoot! Stephen is 5'9 and i'm assuming that they're both getting the same amount from the bowling shoes they're most likely in since their bowling! Which makes you wonder how Damon could be 5'10 compared to Alec, plus Damon is shorter than 5'9-5'9.5 Kinnear, I really think Damon is 5'9 max! And maybe 5'8.5 or 5'8.75, he can't be a legit 5'10 barefoot in the evening, just no way!

average guy. I give him 177 cm. Fits him. Gets up to 5'11 with lifts. Once and for all: stop putting average heights as short!!!!!!!! It's ridiculous to say the least!!!! Damon, Stallone, Pitt etc.are all in the 100% average range. 5'8 is a bit shortish, true. Still not short! Keep it real guys and stop decreasing heights of celebrities who are average. Stop it. It only makes you look pathetic and jealous! When you can reach 5'11 in small lifts or elevator shoes it proves that you must be in average department.

Mark, if you watch the picture carefully and use the words printed on the wall behind as reference you'll notice that Di Caprio is a couple of inches taller than Damon, who is as tall as Nicholson (they both reach half way up the word Departed, whereas Di Caprio reaches the top, and little Wahlberg does not even reach the bottom edge).

I notice 5ft9 guys suffer the same "he's a bit short" comments 5ft7.5 guys get. I can understand why some 5ft9 guys lash out if their referred to as short. It's average and it'd be wrong to accept your small, and in some way a carrier of deficient genes. Stand up for your rights.

Yeah, unfortunately Damon is a proven lift-wearer. Just look at his Brothers Grim premiere photos with legit 6'1" Heath Ledger. He's magically the same height as Ledger, yet his arms look jokingly short.

Any woman who calls a man 5' 8" tall is either seriously in need of help or very short. You are looking up at someone 6' tall which if you said to such person "Gee, yer 6' tall, yer tall!" you'd be laughed at. Damon knew what lifts were the minute he hit a soundstage, he's not tall. He's short in everything he does. At 5' 10" he'd be over 6' in custom lifts....he never is.

You're right james, it is on the shorter side, but I don't necessarily look at a legit 5'8 and call them short, it's below average. I think when you're like 5'6 or lower you're definately short. But height really ain't everything. It's helpful for those that got it, but ones that don't usually compensate in other ways. If you look at alot of hollywoods leading men liked by women, most are under 5'11, and some (like Damon) are under 5'10, and others (like Cruise) are under 5'7...

I'm a little udner 5'8" in the morning and fully grown but I'm not really short. I am similar height to most men I see. Sure I'm shorter than the majority but I'm only 1 1/2" under average and that's not a particulary big margain. 5'8" is pretty much average, it's a very common and normal height for men.

Rising force let me guess, you think Damon is ummmm 5'11...5'11.5?? Wasn't it you that once said he wasn't over 5'8 or 5'9?? And 5'10 definately isn't tall, neither is 5'11. Tall starts at legit 6'0 barefoot. 5'11 is on the upper side of average, but i've never seen someone look at a 5'11 guy and say "Man he's tall" Unless it's a short woman. That being said, I don't think 5'9 or 5'10 or 5'11 is short by no means, it's just simply average and yes can appear tall with the right build or footwear, but isn't actually considered tall, just can appear it. 5'8 really isn't all that short either. When I say stuff like "Damon is 5'8-5'9" it's not like I'm saying he's short, he's average/below average a bit, they're all good heights, I know a ton of gus 5'3-5'5, so someone who is 5'8 or above should be considered lucky their not that short!

Also I don't know how you can say Mark is listed everywhere at 5'7". While I have heard 5'7' for him a lot and he can look it, he's mostly listed at 5'8" and 5'8.5".

Likely lower is correct. He's short in every motion picture. 5' 10" considered tall? By very short women. Imagine being 5' 10" and a woman going "Gee, yer tall".

Barely over Wahlberg, listed everywhere at 5'7 and Damon also were lifts in this movie. Not sure if Wahlberg did or not. Plus Damon is shorter than Greg Kinnear. 5'9 is just absolute max for Damon, but i'm thinking 5'8-5'8.5 evening height for Damon!!!

5'10" seems good, that explains why he can look 5-9ish and 5-11ish. He doesn't seem the least bit short or tall, just dead on average which fits 5'10".

Interesting quote
He's not short. For some reason this is the first thing people want to know when they hear you have met Matt Damon. "He's short, right?" the inquiries come. "How tall is he?" "Is he a Pygmy or what?" He's actually 5 ft. 11 in.

I doubt he's 5'11" but 5'10" seems right. 5'10" accounts for all of the sightings. It's not hard to see a 5'10" guy getting estimated at 5'11" but on the otherhand 5'10" guys get a lot of 5'8" and 5'9" sightings as well.

What kind of land is that where a 5'9 man is taller than 50% of his peers? The land of the dwarfs? Give me a break Caesar.
There is no way you are a legitimate 5'9 barefoot if you think of yourself as a "dwarf". You must inflate everyone by several inches, possibly yourself included. 5'6 is as common as 6'2 anywhere I have seen, and in some places more common. 5'6 isn't even a "dwarf", let alone 5'9. Yes, pro sports teams are an exception, but they are an extremely small sample size.

Maybe you wear Converse or similar very low low-cut shoes or maybe you live in an unusually tall town. At 5'9 you should be taller than about 45-50% of all men.

I dunno... I used to support Damon being 5'10", but after seeing him with solid 5'11" Eddie Redmayne in 'The Good Shepard', his 5'10" is questionable. He might be more 5'9.5" or 5'9.75" than 5'10".
Oh, and btw, Eddie Redmayne is not listed on this site, but he is listed 5'11" everywhere I searched. I think Eddie Redmayne might be more 5'11.25" though, because he seemed more than an inch taller than Damon.

Being a white guy and standing 5'9 1/2" (176.5cm) at noon, it does feel short here in the U.K, and wearing low-cut trainers only concentrates that paranoia, esp. in high-student populated areas where there's more sporty jocks grinning about small guys. There's more 6ft+ guys then there used to be, In fact, I notice a big difference now compared to the late 1990's when I was 21. 5'10.75" (179cm) is average for a white guy in the UK from my observations. It is difficult at this 5'9 1/2" height when choosing shoes, you want a boot that gives at least 1.2" inches, but if you choose soles that give around 1.8 - 2 " inches people begin to notice this and think you have insecurities, also if you do go for the thicker, 2" boots, when you get home and take them off and walk around in socks, it again only strengthens that feeling of being shrimpish more than it would per se with the 1.2" soles.

He plays rugby league (it's kinda like NFL, if ya don't know) but his career hasn't been going too good. Anyway, I was discussing this with my 6'5" friend, who decided that the other guy was too small. I said "yeah, he's pretty tall but a bit skinny I guess". My friend looked at me like I was out of my mind. Seriously, I totally threw him. It just goes to show that 6 foot plus really isn't tall to some people.

Rounders was on the other night, and I knew Damon wore boots in the film but I never noticed how built up they were! In the scene when Norton and Damon arrive at Atlantic City you can see them clearly, and not only is he getting a ton of lift from them but he can barely walk straight! LOL
Norton as well has some serious heeled boots, which makes me wonder if he's more like 5ft11 barefoot, and 6ft0.5 or so in shoes.
I still say 5ft8.5-5ft9 tops barefoot for Damon, and 5ft10.5-5ft11 depending on his footwear.

James, my friend is 6'2 and when I got to talking about height with him I said ''well no **** cause you're quite a tall guy'' and he balked at me and said ''not really''.
Statistically, 6'2 is actually about as common as 5'6, and if you include the elderly and immigrant populations, less common than 5'6. In my college class at 5'10.25-5'10.5 I am just a touch taller than about 55% of the men in there. Then again, unlike a lot of people on this site, I consider my "real" height the measurement I get at night, not in the morning or afternoon. Straight out of bed I am 5'11.25, a few hours later 5'10.75 and then between 5'10.25 and 5'10.5 as late as midnight. When others have measured me my height has always come up as 5'10.5, although I have not been measured at the doctor's office since I was 16 and 5'9. I wouldn't say your 6'2 friend is "quite tall", just tall. Much like a I don't consider a 5'6 guy "quite short", just short.

Straight out of bed I am 5'11.25, a few hours later 5'10.75 and then between 5'10.25 and 5'10.5 as late as midnight. When others have measured me my height has always come up as 5'10.5, although I have not been measured at the doctor's office since I was 16 and 5'9. I wouldn't say your 6'2 friend is "quite tall", just tall. Much like a I don't consider a 5'6 guy "quite short", just short.

James, my friend is 6'2 and when I got to talking about height with him I said ''well no **** cause you're quite a tall guy'' and he balked at me and said ''not really''.

There is one other thing to take into consideration with 5'10" guys...
I think we can generally agree that 5'9" guys (at least on this site) are perceived to be on the shorter side of things, whereas 5'11" guys can be perceived as being tall.
Now, a 5'10" guy has to have impeccable posture throughout the day simply to maintain that "average" 5'10" look. If they slump they can easily lose 1-2", just exacerbating their paranoia over being smaller than they would like.
A guy like Clive Owen can slouch as much as he likes, but he'll never look short because he easily clears 6'1", probably nearer 6'2". But for the likes of Daniel Craig? Being snapped with anything less than military posture can see him slip from "average" to "short".

I agree that many 5' 6" - 5' 9" guys report themselves as 5' 10" as though 5' 10" was the absolute barest minimum of an average height for a grown male, which is of course nonsense. I think alot of men who consider themselves to be average height simply give their height as 5' 10". They just estimate their height without actually measuring themselves. If a man believes himself to be 5' 10" and feels short; chances are he's not really 5' 10".

I am 5 10 and a guy and I always feel short
Either:
a) You're not really 5'10. 80% of all people who claim 5'10 are under that mark, I have found, because in this day and age it is considered the "lowest respectable height".
b) You only look at guys who are taller than you, out of self-esteem issues possibly. I would say the absolute maximum average height for young white males in North America is 5'10.5. At 5'10 you should feel distinctly medium.
c) You live in northern Europe where average male height is 5'11. By the way, average height in the Netherlands is really 5'11.5. The 6'1 myth comes solely from incorrect metric to imperial conversions. Most superficial summaries put 180 cm at 6'0 when in fact 180 cm is not even quite 5'11. 182 cm, the average height in the Netherlands, is then reported as 6'1, being 2 cm more than the incorrect metric standard for 6'0.

5ft8.5-9 tops for Damon, and depending on his footwear he can look near 5ft11 during certain scenes in films. Anbody else ever notice how he walks funny when he comes out to greet the host during talk show interviews? It's the same as when he first arrives at the seaport in the beginning of The Bourne Identity and crosses the street. He looks wobbly as hell, like he could tip over due to his lifts!

I take it James meant 5-5 is shrimpish, or at least I hope so. 5-10 actually looks tallish at the school where Im taking a class. I hardly see any young people here 6-0 or over. The younger generation at least in my area is certaintly getting shorter. And I attribute some of it to poor diet.

Clay, why do you insist on using the term "shrimp"? By your definition, about 75% of the worldwide population are "shrimps" (5'10 and under). Where is this magical land in which you live that everyone is 5'11 or over and 5'10 is an unusual deformity? I see 5'4-5'6 guys all the time. 5'4 is more common than 6'4 in almost the entire world, including North America, I see it every day.
And yes, if you reduced those player heights by 1-2 inches, 5'10 would still be on the short side, but not all that short.

Ok well if you're not even going to read what im saying im going to stop argueing with you Viper. When have I said 6'0-6'2 isnt above average/tall? All along i've just been saying it isnt anything special, thats all. 5'10'' is small for a receiver, period.
Here's one baseball team and their listed heights for the position players. Notice a trend here? this is just one example:
Chad Moeller - 6'4
Jose Molina - 6'2
Ivan Rodriguez - 5'9
Wilson Betemit - 6'3
Robinson Cano - 6'0
Jason Giambi - 6'3
Derek Jeter - 6'3
Cody Ransom - 6'2
Alex Rodriguez - 6'3
Bobby Abreau - 6'0
Melky Cabrera - 5'11
Hideki Matsui - 6'2
Johhny Damon - 6'2
Brett Gardiner - 5'10
...Notice a trend here? Even in your world where everyone is just inflated by 1/2 inches that still leaves 5'10'' on the shrimp side.

For other football poistions, Id say 6-3 is the average height for QB in the NFL. More 6-2 in college. 6-0 for average wide receiver height. 6-0 for safety. For linebacker areound 6-1, possibly closer to 6-2 in the NFL.

Poor diet is why the younger generation is getting shorter, no doubt about it.
And 5-10 isnt "shrimpish" for wide receiver either, lol. Its shorter than the average height of 6-0 for the position, but to say its shrimpish is assinine. "Shrimpish" for wide receiver would be 5-8. There are a lot of wide receivers around the 5-10 range just in the NFL alone. And loads of them in college.
Im starting to think you're a parody at this point. You still think most baseball position players are 6-0 or taller? Most are around 5-10-5-11. The Baltimore Orioles alone are mostly under 6-0 in reality. Ive seen it with my own eyes up close.
But the cherry on top is still you thinking 6-0-6-2 isnt tall. And this coming from a 5-9 guy no less. Im just shaking my head right now in disbelief.

Try again Vipe. For starters I said 6'0-6'2 is above average and 'tall' I would suppose but it isn't eye-popping tall. Plenty of people would agree with that. I would wreckon even you at 6'3'' dont have people staring at you thinking 'good god that guys tall!' (funny how both you and Jason claim to be 6'3'' and yet downgrade everyone on giods green earth). So thats two positions on a football team where 5'10 is considered average, Great. There are 7 others (QB, FB, WR, OL, DL, LB, S) where it is shrimpish. There are probably a few 5'8-5'10 position players in baseball sprinkled in, sure, but most of them are 6'0 or above and that is just reality.

Clay, whats ironic is that you say some of the most outlandish statements on here more so than all the other posters on here combined. 5-10 cornerback looked at as small? WTF are you smoking? 5-10 for a cornerback is looked at as average. There are not many cornerbacks at 6-0 or over. Thats very rare. Safety is the defensive back position where there are more guys over 6-0.
And 5-10 is certaintly in the average range for a position player in baseball. Most position baseball players dont even reach 6-0 in reality. Ive seen it with my own eyes. I doubt 6-3 listed Albert Pulhols is even 6-0. They are inflated as much as 4 inches. Now most pitchers are certaintly 6-0 or taller. Heights for pitchers are more accurate.
But then again, you're the same dumbass who thinks 6-0-6-1 isnt tall, so I guess I shouldnt be surprised.

5'10"- is basically average, and it's what a lot of men below 5'10" will basically say there height is. I'm 5'9", and I live with two women. My mom and my grandma, and I'm constantly told how tall I am. The reason is, because my mother is only 5 feet tall and my grandma is only about 5'1.5". So I am looked at as a giant even though they are well below average height for a women, and I'm average for a male. We also have different body types. I'm skinny and long, and they are short and overweight. When I step outside though, my height is barely noticed or talked about. Unless I'm standing by my 5 feet mother or someone else who is short.I actually do wish I was 3 inches taller though, because when I am at school walking down a hallway most of the guys tend to tower over me. It's just crazy how tall they are. 6'6",6'7",7 foot, e.t.c. I think younger generations are much taller. It's very rare that I see men that tall in their 30's or 40's, but I see it everyday at school. I think height is all about perspective, and who surround yourself with. Anyway, Matt is just average.

There is no point in argueing with a downgrading troll like you Viper. But no, 5'10 isnt ''abverage'' in football. LOL. Running back maybe. Cornerback possibly, but even a 5'100 corner back is looked at as small for that position. That is all. In hockey the average height is 6'0.6/6'1. FACT. And 5'10 is DEFINITELY small in baseball. Keep calling people idiots and you'll be on borrowed time..what you should be anyways with all your rubbish downgrades.

I saw sexiest man alive Matt Damon wonderful family photos in "PEOPLE" magazine. But, I can't help to notice he and his mother look so much alike. She looks like a tall woman in stature compared to the average height woman of 5'4. So I say Matt Damon is on a level of tall.

5ft10 isn't short, but def. not tall either plain average. A lot of 5ft10 guys can look shortish from time to time not just in sports, but also in normal life. I know that a lot of ppl here will disagree with me about the average height just because they are from different parts of world. In Finland 5ft10 is still the average height, but younger guys are a lot taller...
Lmeister, that's very true what you said. If the whole population is considered then 5'10 is the average height, but for younger generations average is 5'11, and for the older generations average is 5'9.

Clay, you are an idiot. 5-10 is only looked at as shrimpish in basketball. In football it can be considered average height at a certain position. In baseball its average for position players.

Matt is a legit 5'10". I have met him....my dear friend Lucy from high school married him. I attended their wedding reception a met his family. They had a small ceremony at NY city hall and then had a reception for friends and family not long after. He is a legit 5'10".>
Then please explain why when I saw him and stood right next to him I was more than just an inch taller? I'm 5'11" and if he was truly 5'10" I wouldn't have noticed that much of a discrepancy. He was at least three inches shorter.
I guess that day he wasn't wearing special shoes or maybe he has a switch so he can go from normal to looking like a 5'10" guy at the press of a button. Come to think of it, that might not be a bad business to start up. Real elevator shoes. They go up and down at the flick of a switch. Hmmmmmmm............

Matt,
I am 5'10, maybe 5'10.5 on a very good day, and I once told a legitimate 5'11 guy who looked similar to me that I was a "shorter, stockier version of (him)". Then the guy absolutely insisted I was taller, and claimed I had to be 6'1. He was completely serious. He had us stand together and another guy compare us and the other guy said he had maybe half an inch over me. Again, a guy taller than me thought I was taller than him and I am 5'10. 5'10 is plainly medium, and can look short or tall standing alone depending on body type and build, especially when people force themselves into contriving a short or tall dichotomy.

I am not saying 5'10" is a short height. I said it is "the END of short". Just observe the comments that are all around you. Guys who are 5'11"+ are often referred to as "a strong" height, whereas guys under that height rarely get that kind of adjective.
There is something called medium, or average, and that is where 5'10 falls. I've never seen 5'11 as a "strong height", guys who are 5'11 rarely look particularly tall, because they aren't. Also, film is an entirely different animal than real life.
I would say Daniel Craig does look tall sometimes, and Clooney looks tall sometimes as well. It depends on who they are around. You want a 5'10 celebrity who looks tall? Richard Ashcroft. However, because 5'10 is such an average, medium height, body proportions make a huge difference as to how tall someone looks when standing alone. I think that is a real problem with people on this web site. They look at stand-alone pictures or footage and judge people's height by body type. Does James Gandolfini ever look 6'1 when standing by himself? Absolutely not, because he has a wide shape. Arnold Schwarzenegger is the foremost example of a legitimately tall guy (6'1.5 in prime) constantly perceived as being far shorter than he is. Again, his wide muscular physique and sloping shoulders make him look like a short guy when standing alone. With other people he looks the height at which he was measured.

Go to the August 9th Frank2 photo, he's owned by Pitt, Clooney, Garcia. Garcia has zero heel on. He's 5' 8" and wears customs.
Yes, in one picture Garcia is in front centre and Damon is way off to the left, and Garcia looks slightly taller, due to perspective. I gave you several pictures where the two are right beside each other and Damon is convincingly taller than Garcia. Glenn and his pictures are irrelevant, as you have said yourself, so there is no need to mention his picture with Damon. Again, people here seem to have no conception of body type and how it can play a big role in how tall or short someone looks standing alone. Have you never met guys who due to posture or build from afar looked shorter and when they come up close you are surprised at their height? The opposite happens as well. This is exaggerated with guys in the 5'9-5'11 range because it's completely medium, neither short or tall, but in people's minds they force themselves to label others' one or the other.
Also, celebrities are not shorter on average than the regular population. That is a serious myth. In fact, most leading men are statistically above average, especially when you look at Hollywood past. It's just that people expect stars to be huge as they build them up in their minds, and are shocked that they are not so huge when they meet them. For example, how many 5'6 leading men are there? There are a few, but not many. In contrast, how many 6'3 leading men are there? A lot. Yet in real life, 5'6 men are much more common than 6'3.

Viper & Caesar -- stop being so sensitive. Calling 5'10" as "the end of short rather than the beginning of tall" is no implication on the value of those who are 5'10" or shorter (which includes me, by the way); it is just an observation.
Look. Guys like Daniel Craig, Matt Damon, Jesse Metcalfe, Ewan McGregor, even George Clooney...they are all in that legit 5'10" area. But how many people say those guys are tall or even LOOK tall? Practically NONE. On the other hand, how many people try to argue that the guys "look short"? LOADS.

It is almost inevitable that any male celebrity who could very well be a legit 5'10" will be the victim of the downgrade lobby on this site. People are always pushing for 5'9", 5'9.5". Although there are always good arguments to be made for certain downgrades, all I am asking you to do is observe what's going on around you.
FACT: No 5'10" range celebrity is every eulogised as being tall. They are nearly all the subject of downgrade attacks.

Yeah, young white males tend to be 5'10-5'11 on average. I think calling 5'10 "short" only works if you go with a pure short/tall dichotomy, where there is no such thing as medium or average. I am 5'10-5'10.5 and I have never been called short in my life, though I do feel that way in some situations.

5'10 is around the 60th percentile for men in the U.S. Only about 40% of men are taller than 5'10. 5'10 isn't short at all in the United States, it's plain medium.

There is definitely a disconnect going on here. Damon kinda looks like a 5'10" guy ("5'10" is not the beginning of tall, it is the end of short), and he did have Glenn convincingly beaten in the old photo that was up.
However, the disconnect lies with the Ocean's cast, particularly Clooney. GC always, always, always has Damon effortlessly beaten, even with his casual postures. And you'd be very hard-pressed to say that Clooney is more than 5'10.25" nowadays. There is also the possibility of Damon wearing special shoes.
I think the safe bet to make is Damon being around 5'9", Clooney around 5'10.25", and a guy like Pitt could be around 5'10.5".

Caesar if you think about it maybe Dicaprio is barely if at all over 5ft11, Matt Damon looks slightly shorter than 5ft8.5 Jack Nicolson in that pic and if Walhberg straightend up he would be around the same size as Matt Damon as well.
Nicholson is well in front of the other three and thus perspective dictates he would appear taller. Wahlberg is slightly behind DiCaprio and Damon, but clearly still shorter just by looking at his body. There are other pictures of them together which confirm my analysis:
Click Here
Wahlberg is slightly in the background, but just examining him it is evident he is no more than 5'8. Nicholson again is in the foreground exaggerating his height slightly. In the film Wahlberg looked 5'7.5 at most, and Damon had 2-3 inches on him the whole time. Discounting Nicholson and Wahlberg, Damon looks one inch shorter than DiCaprio, who is at least 5'11 and probably 5'11.5.

Damon is definitely not 5'10". Clooney is 5'10" and more than 1 inch taller.

Only an inch shorter than DiCaprio (5'11-5'11.5), maybe 1.5 inches if DiCaprio straightened out. 2-3 inches taller than Wahlberg, and 1 inch taller than Nicholson. I would say all of them except DiCaprio are as likely to wear lifts. I have seen no picture evidence of any kind that suggests Damon is below 5'9. You can even find a lot of pictures of Stallone looking 5'8 that are somewhat reasonable. The same can't be said for Damon.

Glenn stands 5'7.25/5'7.5 and he wore those boots and Damon had 2/2.5 inches on him which leaves Matt at 5'9'' since he probably had decent sized heels as well. Thanks Lmeister. :)

What smurff-land are you living in where 5'9'' is tall/average Viper? It is just on the cusp of average, if that. In the professional sports world a 5'9'' guy is looked at as a shrimp!
and LOL@5'9'' being ''so high'' of an estimate for Damon. Are you on crack?
Kinda agree with you Clay. Im from Finland and anything below 5ft9 is considered short here. The average of young men is around 5ft11-6ft. I don't see that many younger guys on the streets who are below 5ft11. Matt Damon is 5ft9 and a bit.

Thanks Leung. I saw the 5'11" listings too but I had never seen an actual claim from Damon himself. I think he's a little shorter than 5'10" though.

He looks short in everything he's in. I don't think he has the Stallone complex of massive lift is needed. Just look at him with Pitt-Clooney-Garcia. He's the little guy.

If he wore Stallone-like lifts he would look tall (5'11-6'0). He just doesnt bother too as he doesnt have a little man complex like Sly does.

One thing about Damon that may point to him being around 5'8" is the fact that he never looks tall. I'm sure he wears lifts at times yet he struggles at 5'10" usually and never seems 5'11". It'd be interesting to see what he claims though.
I'm pretty sure he claimed 5'10, and his agency lists him 5'11. Again, he looked 2-3 inches taller than Mark Wahlberg, who is a minimum of 5'7. I would say 5'9.5 for Damon, possibly 5'9. With thick shoes he can look even with Clooney.

He couldn't get to Pitt & Clooney's heights. He can't. Correct, he looks short in every motion picture. He can get mean "tall" like he did with Glenn in lifts on the streets of NYC. Depends who he stands with and their footwear. The Andy Garcia photo was enough for me.

He wore custom 2" added footwear in the Bournes. Just look at him with the director and his shoes in the shot. Reminds me of Vin Diesel's foot magic. The tallest he looked was with Glenn. The thought of Andy Garcia (who I met and is 5' 9") taller than Damon then Glenn owned by Damon big gives me an idea how ridiculous Glenn's 5' 8" height was.

5ft 9 - 5ft 10 max, he looked very short in The Deaprted, but alot taller in The Bourne Ultimatum (maybe lifts)
I'm 5ft 10 barefoot, and when I wear shoes/sneakers I've been told I look just under 6ft.
So Damon is not 'short' in my eyes. He's average

I`ve met him twice. The first time was about three years ago, the second time I saw him was five days ago! And listen: When I met him in the first time, he was AT LEAST 6 inches shorter than me, and Im 6-2. That was in 2005. Then I met him a couple of days ago and he looked barely 4 inches shorter than me!
So he has grown two inches at the age of what, 30? Or then he just wears lifts!

I think alot of these celebs really are 2 inches shorter than listed. It makes since. I know regular ol' average joes that upgrade their height by 2 inches or more, don't you think a celebrity in the public eye known for their image would do the same if not much more! There's evidence all on Pitt's page that 5'10 is his max height and plenty that he's a possible 5'9 to 5'9.5'er!

You're notorious for scraping an inch or even 2 inches of basically everybody Viper. I'll believe Pitt is as low as 5'10'' when I see it. If there is so much ''evidence'' why hasnt Rob changed his figure? Wahlberg could be as low as 5'7'' I definitely could see it, but 5'7.5/5'8 makes more sense.
And you're alone in this quest to make the Rock under 6'3'' Viper...

Wahlberg just made Glenn what he was and refused to admit: real short, just like Damon did in his photo with him. Weak 5' 7" when he got up and lower under 21 years old. Viper is correct: 2" shorter than a 5' 10" Pitt in the Oceans films. Damon in his big customs and Pitt in his. He still looked like "the kid" compared to Clooney/Pitt. Glenn's 5' 11" figure is like a lot of his "I've seen these people many times" figures: ridiculous and just a benefit for his 5' 8" fantasy.

Brad Pitt was an inch shorter than Edward Norton he is not under 5'11'' regardless of whatever lifts he wears. He can look 6'2'' in lifts. MARK WAHLBERG ISNT 5'7. He's a solid 5'8'' as he was about a half inch taller than Glenn. Some of you are pretty histerical trying to make these guys an inch or 2 shorter than what they are.
I agree with your conclusion, but Wahlberg is 5'7. The pavement in the Glenn pictures favoured Wahlberg severely. Wahlberg stacks up at 5'7, maybe 5'7.5 against other actors. Damon was 2-3 inches taller than him.

If he was 2 inches shorter than Brad Pitt in the Ocean's movies that would make him 5-8, which he looks in just about every movie hes in. Pitt is 5-10 max If you look at most of the picture evidence on him.

Again, if you want to believe he's 5'8, then you have to downgrade everyone he has ever worked with by 1.5-2 inches. Therefore Baldwin would have to be 5'10, DiCaprio 5'9, Pitt 5'9, Wahlberg 5'5, Sheen 5'4, Jude Law 5'9, Clooney 5'9, etc.

A few shots to check out.
Here with several people including George Clooney:
With 5'7" Mark Wahlberg:
Matt Damon and wife Luciana Barroso enjoy a double date night out on Friday with actor pal Robert Downey Jr. (5'7") and his wife Susan.:
Seen here looking considerably shorter than 5'11" Brad Pitt:
(I wonder what the bags hide)
With 5'6" Don Cheadle:
I worked at Fox when Cheadle was in Picket Fences and I can say for a fact that he's no more than 5'6". I could easily look right over the top of his head.
Come on. In every single one of those pictures Damon is in the background, often considerably, except the one with Cheadle. Provide some unprejudiced pictures and then make your case. According to this web site, Cheadle is a little over 5'8. I can't take your in-person judgment on blind faith. Damon looks 5'9-5'10. I compared him carefully to other famous actors in The Departed. He looked three inches taller than 5'7-5'7.5 Wahlberg, nearly four inches taller than Martin Sheen, 1-2 inches shorter than Leonardo DiCaprio, two inches shorter than Alec Baldwin, who is at least 5'11.5 and probably 6'0. He is another type who has put on some weight and looks shorter than he is. Damon is a weak 5'10. Not 5'10.5-5'11 like Glenn said, but a solid 5'9.5-5'10.

I worked at Fox when Cheadle was in Picket Fences and I can say for a fact that he's no more than 5'6". I could easily look right over the top of his head.
Come on. In every single one of those pictures Damon is in the background, often considerably, except the one with Cheadle. Provide some unprejudiced pictures and then make your case. According to this web site, Cheadle is a little over 5'8. I can't take your in-person judgment on blind faith. Damon looks 5'9-5'10. I compared him carefully to other famous actors in The Departed. He looked three inches taller than 5'7-5'7.5 Wahlberg, nearly four inches taller than Martin Sheen, 1-2 inches shorter than Leonardo DiCaprio, two inches shorter than Alec Baldwin, who is at least 5'11.5 and probably 6'0. He is another type who has put on some weight and looks shorter than he is. Damon is a weak 5'10. Not 5'10.5-5'11 like Glenn said, but a solid 5'9.5-5'10.

Legit 5-9 guys will not look short with most people. Especially considering they can look 5-10 or over.

In Ocean's 11 (12 & 13) he looks roughly 2 inches shorter than Brad Pitt who is listed at 5'11". I'd say Damon is about 5'9".

Editor Rob I could see 5ft 9 as possible, 5ft 8 if he was some sort of permament lift wearer?

Baldwin is exactly 5' 11". I snuck into The Shadow stage at Universal right by the Seaquest stage and ran into him in period threads. You are right, he's owning Matt with ease. You might be right about 5' 8" . The 5' 10" figure is another Glenn fantasy over-inflating to adjust to his afterdark shortcomings. He looks 5' 11" in Glenn's world. Matt wears those big tread jobs in the Bournes. He's short in every film with male actors at his left and right. That's a great shot of Damon with Pitt, now put Glenn below Damon as he photographed. Ask Glenn to explain. "I wasn't in my Portman's".
