He looks about 0.5 inches taller than myself. I think he would measure somewhere between 183-184 cm. 6'0.25 in the evening.

I recognized Nicholas's picture purely from seeing him in the 'X' Files, so I thought I should go along to his page to see if I've seen anything else he has starred in. The answer is NO!
6ft0.5. 👽👾

Nicholas has perfected the ideal 'evil stare' for his part as Krycek, his 'X' Files role, but he looks as becoming as ever in the above photograph.
6ft and half-an-inch. 😀👌

I just don't see him even as 183cm. Always looked a bit shorter than Duchovny. Always looked around 181-182cm range guy in X-files with Pileggi and Duchovny.

Yeah he was 6 1 in footwear no doubt maybe 6ft .5 in xfiles he is looking old..
Personally by xfiles i have him edging mitch easily taller than davey and well under an old cancer man.
I have to rewatch he may have worn boots being the tactical type so could get nice boost without a cheat.
Very underrated actor played some interesting roles and well.

It's a reasonable listing. 184 cm is the nearest cm mark I think he would measure to. He is over 6'0 but not sure by how much. 6'0.25 could be a possibility.

Editor Rob when I rewatched x-files, I thought generally Nicholas might just edge out David, but at times they could look pretty much within the same range.

Strong 6ft is as arguable as weak 6ft1 but then where does that leave Duchovny. This guy always looked slightly taller than him

Editor Rob I would say if you compared anybody on a street with one mid stride and the other full stride you'd find a difference of a few inches. In person both actually are very similar, William I think lost 1.5 inches from his own peak.

This guy is not 185cm. He's moore like 182cm Click Here Click Here
Compare him to Mitch Pileggi, who is a legit 185cm. William B Davis was surely peak 190cm.

Is it just me or is it that his head is bigger than I thought it was? I thought it was kind of smallish but here it looks biggish. So Rob what would be the length of it you would say?

Editor Rob I wouldn't have said it was big, but if your head is a few inches nearer the camera it can always increase a bit and look bigger than it is.

He looks shorter than Duchovny on X-files by half an inch. Although he does look rather big next to Rob. Duchovny must be like 186 at least.

Editor Rob he's what I'd say was probably a weak 6ft 1 .
I don't think David looked taller, they were very close in season 2 eps, sometimes either could look a fraction taller.

I remember him in X files. This is about right. Maybe 186cm. He was about an inch taller than David Duchovny.

I met him two weeks ago when he came into my restaurant. I instantly recognized him as I was a huge fan of The X-Files and Once a Thief. He is indeed 6'-6'1"ish, unlike other sites that have put him as tall as 6'4". I don't know how they came up with 6'4" because it's obvious he isn't that tall. I myself am 5'8" (5'9" in my flat runners which I was wearing when I met him).
On another note, he is not a US actor. He is Canadian...and oh boy, does he ever have nice green eyes!
