1.76 looks good for scott. Seems that his having a small frame and makes him look shorter about 5"7 or 5"8

I would say around 5'9 5'9.5. He was a little taller than Dick Clark when he visited American Bandstand. Clark was 5'9. Anson Williams is 5'10 and he is shorter. Look at the full cast picture at the end of the opening credits for season 11 of Happy Days.

probably a weak 5'10 at most. Between 5'9-5'10.

5'10" for Scott Baio surprises me, he always looked 5'9" in "Happy Days"... I could possibly see 176cm peak height in the morning, but anything more seems inflated...

Back in the '80s, on TV's "Charles In Charge", I honestly thought he was 6 foot. LOL That is, until I saw him next to guesstar John Astin (5'11"), who was easily an inch or two taller. Now I see the 5'10 1/2" claim and think that probably means he's 5'9 1/2" barefoot since that height is probably in shoes-??

He always looked more like 5'8". I seriously doubt his claim.

He has a very slight build, which makes him look taller than he actually is. 5'9" is an accurate estimate of his height.

Rob, if he was given 5-9 in 1982, why do you list him at 5-10? If anything heights are exaggerated.

It's hard to believe that little Scott Baio is a full 5'10", but then, what do I know? Maybe he's close enough at 5'9".

i doubt he's truly a full 5-10 from watching his reality show. but he is probably close, maybe 5-9.5

I would say no more than 5 feet 9, and that's seriously pushing it. He looks so short on his reality show.

Only 5'10?! That's a surprise. I would have guessed Baio at a least 6', but I have nothing to base it on. On "CNC" he just seemed like a tall and lanky guy-- much taller than the other actors, who apparently must have just been short. That Ames actor really made Baio look much taller than he is.

I agree with 5'8". I thought he was 5'7" on television.

You know, Scott overstating his height or lying about whether he is dating one girl or ten, while being married-maybe, doesn't surprise me. Over 20 years ago, my girlfriend dated him. He was not 5'10", more like 5'8" (because she was 5'7" and WOULD NOT wear heels when she went out with him.). He was mean to her, lied to her, and rude to all her friends. The relationship was very brief, thank goodness. People can change. My past impression of Baio though, is still with me today, and it isn't good.
Julie from WI, Celebrity Nooz reported (but could not confirm)Scott married his longtime girlfriend, Janette Jonasson, in January of this year. Maybe he is married to two women. Well, sorry that's not nice but he definitely was a player.

how the heck can Juli from Wisconsin be married to Scott Baio when the web sites show him at different outings with different female guests? Yea, right you are Scott Baio's wife as much as I am.

I have an old "TV Superstars '83" book given to me as a joke. It's got Scott as 5'10". Actually, I would guess he's probably not much taller than 5'9".
