In anti trust and shawshank redemption, he looks 6 foot 5. I thought he was 6 foot 3 when I thought morgan freeman was 6 foot. He's a really tall man. He didnt look that tall in shawshank redemption or antitrust but when he was standing next to 5 foot 8 ryan phillipe, he was a giant.
Big King said on 21/Nov/08
Also if Robbins was 198cm in the morning, it would be right to give him 6'6" too.
I sometimes have the feeling that Robbins has exactly the same height as me, if not a bit shorter but I doubt it because he looks gigantic!!!
Lenad said on 15/Nov/08
Robbins can look 6'4 tops I'll admit that.
Hugh said on 6/Nov/08
Actually I'm beginning to agree with James. A strong 6ft5 for Tim doesn't seem out of the question. Might even have been 198cm. This guy is hard to pin.
Lenad said on 5/Nov/08
195cm at least. Could be wrong though
Danimal said on 3/Nov/08
HE has been described as having been 6'7" in the past. He definitely looked in next to Morgan Freeman in Shawshank Redemption.
Hugh said on 1/Nov/08
Now James, I'm not sure if Tim was ever above 6ft5. He's a huge guy no question but 197cm does seem a little high. But you're entitled to your opinions.
Big King said on 31/Oct/08
Just because of his 6'4 1/2" claiming it doesn't mean the he is that tall. We all know that he's at least 6'5". And James, I also thought that Robbins has to be around 6'7" when I saw Nothing to lose.
Big King said on 27/Oct/08
There is one thing I forgot to mention. Robbins has three inches on 6'2 1/2" Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redemption.
Big King said on 27/Oct/08
Yes, Robbins doesn't look 6'5" beside Glenn but in several films like Nothing To Lose he appears to be huge! He towers over a head beside Martin Lawrence who is 5'8" at his peak!
Korben said on 24/Oct/08
Hey rob now that glenns back can we get those 2 pics back? they were great
Big King said on 23/Oct/08
Or maybe 197cm is a bit overestimated for him. If he really stands at 6'4 1/2" in the evening then he could be 6'5" at the same time when I'm 6'6". Maybe he's an inch shorter than me if Rob is right with his estimation.
Lenad said on 23/Oct/08
I'd give him a solid 6'5. He had a good couple of inches on Freeman and Brown who i think are in the 6'2.5-6'3 range.
Lenad said on 20/Oct/08
Maybe 198-ish in the morning and 196-ish in the evening. He looks too tall to be a 6'4-ish guy
Hugh said on 19/Oct/08
I can buy 6ft5 for Robbins but no more than that.
Big King said on 18/Oct/08
He could be almost 6'5" nowadays but I'm sure that he was at least 6'5" in his younger days.
Big King said on 15/Oct/08
I looked for Robbins' height infos and I didn't find a source where it is written that Robbins is at 6'5 1/2". His height is mostly at 6'5" in the most websites. Less websites say that his height is 6'4 1/2".
Big King said on 14/Oct/08
James, maybe Robbins has shrunk just 1/4 inch. In his prime he was at least 6'5".
Lenad said on 11/Oct/08
Doesnt look a hair under 6'5 next to Morgan Freeman and Clancy Brown
Lenad said on 10/Oct/08
The thing about this guy is that although he said he is 6'4 1/2 I sure think he is more.
Gonzalo said on 10/Oct/08
He is very tall. He always looks as tall next to people as I expected. He looks taller than 1`94 to me. I see him more at 1`96
Disec said on 7/Oct/08
Man I saw him yesterday on the Daily show and when he stood next to Jon Stewart, he looked like a huge giant, the way that Gandalf looked next to Frodo in the Lord of the Rings... I even wondered if they used any special effects...
Viper said on 1/Oct/08
Ive said this before but Robbins looked like an absolute tower when I saw him live on tv at a John Edwards rally. The way he towered over everyone I could believe 6-6 for the dude. I dont think hes shrunk at all, since this was recently. Whatever he is he can sure look taller.
Big King said on 29/Sep/08
You see Rob? Everyone on this page says that Robbins is at least 6'5". Why can't you change his height to 6'5" then? Why are you so stubborn? Also Christopher Lee has downgraded his 6'5" height to 6'4" and his peak height is still at 6'5" on CelebHeights.
Viper said on 22/Sep/08
Robbins is one of the very few guys on here who could be underlisted, because he does look 6-5 at least in many pics.
Big King said on 21/Sep/08
Come on, Rob. His 6'4 1/2" claiming is a joke. He's clearly taller. 6'5 1/2" is his height.
Anonymous3 said on 14/Sep/08
definite 6ft5-6ft5.5 jeez would you people look at how massive this fellow is? upgrade him to a 6ft5, he is too tall to be in 6ft4 range.... obviously 196-197cm.....he is more likely closer to 6ft5.5 pushing 6ft6 than 6ft4.... anyone else have any takes on this?
Lenad said on 13/Sep/08
My brother said after watching Shawshank Redemption "Hes a big F###er!! 6'5 or something!!"
Big King said on 11/Sep/08
I mean, there is also an actor named Christopher Lee who is 6'5" and who has downgraded his height to 6'4" but Rob still lists his peak height at 6'5". I wonder why Rob won't give Robins 6'5" too on this page. No matter what Robbins said about his height. That guy is at least 6'5". That's that!
Big King said on 9/Sep/08
Yes. Exactly.
Big King said on 9/Sep/08
That's really strange for example. In Big Momma's House 2 and in Wild Hogs, the 6'6" mentioned Kevin Durand didn't look huge beside Martin Lawrence but Tim Robbins looked like a giant beside Lawrence. It is 100% sure that Robbins might be taller than Kevin Durand. Screw that 6'6" for Kevin Durand, I also told Rob that it would be better and more realistic to give Durand 6'5" or maybe 6'5 1/2" or something in that way. Durand is not a full 6'6"!
Big King said on 8/Sep/08
I mean, in the film Big Momma's House 2, Lawrence was standing in front of Kevin Durand and Durand looked almost a head taller than Lawrence and in the film Nothing to Loose, Tim Robins looked more than a head taller than Lawrence. Robbins is certainly not shorter than Durand. I guess Robbins and Durand are around 6'5 1/2".
Big King said on 7/Sep/08
Robbins looked huge beside Martin Lawrence in the film Nothing to lose. I'm sure that there was almost a foot height difference between them. If Robins is 6'5" then Lawrence is no more than 5'7" or under. Another strange thing is that Robbins looked a lot taller beside Martin Lawrence than Kevin Durand who is at 6'6" on CelebHeights.
Big King said on 7/Sep/08
A.G., no wonder why you estimated Tim as 6'7" with your 5'5". No, I promise you that Robbins is not over 6'5" but he has downgraded his height for a half inch.
A.G. said on 5/Sep/08
I met Tim Robbins this summer and I am 5'5" - he is EASILY 6'7" - 6'8" he towered over my 6'4" brother....
Lenad said on 22/Aug/08
Looked 2-3 inches taller than 6'3 Clancy Brown.
Alex said on 10/Aug/08
Its not often but sometimes guys who are a taller than they'd like to be or something will downgrade themselves, even if its 1/2 inch.

Yaspaa said on 2/Aug/08
In that baseball movie with Kevin Costner,Eight Men Out I think,he didn't look over 6'5,I've seen him plenty of times in other stuff looking taller than 6'5 however,Shawshank being one example.
BC88 said on 30/Jul/08
Wait a minute, after viewing some great new pictures I found, I now believe that Tim Robbins is easily 6'5
Alex V. said on 23/Jul/08
Hello everyone... For me, not the full 6'5" but very close to it (like Cleese for instance).
BC88 said on 23/Jul/08
Ok, after all the evidence, pictures ect., I have come up with a conclusion that Tim is 6' 5" without shoes and 6'6" in shoes. Everybody can agree with that now can't they? Now if only his height could be upgraded on this site.

Just upgrade him dude! Hes 6'5 and its so obvious!

HE IS NOT OVER 6'5"! But he might have shaved a 1/2" of height when he said 6'4 1/2"
glenn said on 28/May/08
thanks nicole.
RAZOR said on 26/May/08
James, you're right but Robbins is over 6'4 1/2", trust me.
nicole said on 26/May/08
Wow, excellent photos by the way Glenn. Tim looks easy 6ft 5inch.Very tall man.
RAZOR said on 25/May/08
James, I don't think that Robbins wears lifts but he's clearly over 6'4 1/2", that's for sure because he's at least 6'5". He's almost 6'6" tall but it seems that Robbins doesn't care about his height. He's maybe using his lowest height. Maybe he's 6'4 1/2" at night but in the forenoon, he's surely at least 6'5" as mentioned. So taking his height as 6'5 1/2" won't be wrong. That's his true height I guess!
Viper said on 19/May/08
He looked 6-6 on video standing behind 5-10 1/2-5-11 John Edwards. The guy was sorrounded by people and he looked like a skyscraper. Towered everyone with ease. I was surprised.
Alex V. said on 18/May/08
1m95 is the number. He said once that he was 6'5 on a good day but has said also that he is 6'4.5 so 1m95 is on the target.
thekiddd said on 17/May/08
I agree you guys that he is probably above 6'4 1/2", but he isn't above 6'5"! He isn't taller than that.
RAZOR said on 15/May/08
Yes, I think he would be 6'5 1/4" (196cm) out of bed, not 6'5 1/2" (197cm) otherwise there would be another source what describes Robbins being 197cm tall.
RAZOR said on 14/May/08
James, I don't believe that Robbins is 6'6" out of bed because otherwise his real height would be 6'6" but I guess he is 6'5" in the forenoon and 6'4 1/2" late in the afternoon or even in the evening. Maybe Robbins doesn't care about his height but claiming his worst height is nonsense and James, keep in mind: Glenn is 5'8" out of bed too and he uses this height as his real height. I use my forenoon height too. I'm 6'5" in the forenoon, just like Tim Robbins I guess.
Viper said on 30/Apr/08
Robbins is one of the very few guys who I wouldnt be surprised is taller than his listed height on here. Again, one of the very, very few on here from my perspective.

Korben said on 26/Apr/08
Tim has a pretty big head (well hes a big dude lol). For his closed mouth to be at glens 173cm head, he'd have to be at least 195cm barefoot. I dont see him being taller then vince vaugn, but he could be. Id say 196.5 morning, 195 afternoon, 194 night.
Editor Rob
his head is same size as glenn's in bottom pic, so if you think it's bigger than glenn's then robbins isn't on the same plane.

Sorry, but he had more than 2" on 6'2"-6'3" Morgan Freeman (15 years ago).

In that film I.Q. with Stephen Fry I seem to remember him being exactly the same height so 6'4.5" is spot on.

tim looks 6-4 or 6-5 to me at times.depending.never taller or shorter.

interesting.never really paid attention to him.maybe he was 6-6 peak.
Danimal said on 15/Apr/08
Had about 4" on Morgan Freeman in Shawshank and Morgan was nothing less than 6'2"-6'3" 15 years ago. I say that Robbins was minimum 6'6" in his younger days and downgraded his own height. If he didn't, then he was the tallest 6'4.5"-6'5" actor of all time, making other very tall actors (Danny Aiello in Jacob's Ladder) look tiny.

Why does everyone like the sound of 6'5 1/2" so much? That should be debated with actors who are 6'6".

To James.
I know that. The editor says above that he looks 6'5" to him but put him at almost 6'5" because it is what he quoted.
BC88 said on 12/Apr/08
I'd say he is 6' 5" easy and maybe even 6' 6". I make this judgment from the photos and the movies he was in.

Tim is one of the few guys where he really could be downplaying his height.

No, he is not 6'5 1/2". I agree with the editor. 6'5".
Zeala said on 13/Mar/08
Robbins, taking your height as 6' 4 1/2" is a huge mistake. You are exactly an inch above your claimed height, namely 6'5 1/2"!!

towers over Costner in Bull Durham...looks more like a 5 in difference than a 3.5 one
Anonymous said on 29/Feb/08
If all this information is correct then it should be 21 - 22 cm from between Robbins nose and upperlip to the top of his head. Which is probably true, im to tired to measure a human head now :)
Jake Is Back said on 28/Feb/08
He's a good 6'4", pushing 6'5". People sometimes jump to 6'6" because they don't know what 6'4" and change looks like.
Mark D. said on 17/Feb/08
I would say 6'4.5" is correct. It's a weird height to be as I'm that tall and
built simiar (lanky), also with very thick hair. Needless to say few believe
I am 'only' 6'4.5". I hear 'estimates' of 6'5"-6'6" constantly, but they're
folks who think I'm suuposed to 'round up' or use 'with shoes' measurement.
Alex V. said on 14/Feb/08
In "The Player" movie, there is a lineup scene. Tim is wearing flat shoes and the mark is 6'5 1/2. You people should see the movie and judge for yourself...
My statement is the same, 1m95.
Gonzalo said on 14/Feb/08
He looks very tall but I see him at 1`97 at the most. 2 meters sounds too much for him. Tall guy anyway

I dont get it, every other time I see him he screams 6'5 min. But on these pics he looks as tall as Seagal. Glenn how tall did he look to you.
Anonymous said on 27/Jan/08
I'd say at least 6'5''. With the claims of some people that he is even taller who knows? I suppose it is possible that he knocked down his height to avoid being seen as a 'freak' when going for parts early in his career.
Alex V. said on 23/Jan/08
For me, as i said before, somewhere between 6'4 1/2 and 6'5 (1m95), i can't see Tim being more than that. I also think that Fry is the same height.

An actor that worked with him in The Player was on a talk show and told the interviewer that Robbins told him that he was 6'7" when asked. I always believed that to be true.

Gonzalo said on 21/Nov/07
Interesting comments, Kenneth. 1,95-96 is what Tim looks to me
kenneth said on 17/Nov/07
in my opinion pics with gonzalo below shows:
1. everyone knows philip noyce have a bad hunches bad standing posture so that makes him lose about 2cm and looks 192ish, but pic of tim beside noyce makes tim a 198ish unless noyce stand straight up to gain back his 194cm height so tim robbins is at least 196cm tall instead of 194cm..
2.188clive owen stands abit lean down and looks slightly taller than tim robbins eye brown,makes tim looks 197cm tall..
3. 6ft3 will ferrell looks 4cm shorter than tim robbins while ferell stand a good posture but fro tim not so good one.. to say that if tim straight up a pose, he were looks 197cm tall, but the fact for ferell is his under 190cm barefoot he is 189ish and so (189 + 6 = 195cm) thats tim robbins height..
tim robbins is a solid 195CM tall old dude!!
Danimal said on 16/Nov/07
An unknown co-star of Tim's once appeared on Conan Obrien back in 1994 and said that Tim told him he was 6'7". He always looked taller than 6'5" to me.
J-Dog said on 8/Nov/07
After seeing him before and rethinking about it, based on the fact that I work with a 6'6" guy who looks about the same to me as Tim did from a distance. The thing is at 6'1.75" by mid-day. I had to draw comparisons as I thought 6'6" would completely tower over me in the past, but it doesn't quite. With that in mind Tim may be around the 6'5.5" mark in the morning or taller, tough to be completely accurate of course.

Absolutely agree about 6´4" or 5" (it´s the same). Always the tallest in the scenes. Congratulations for you, Glenn !!!!! If compared to Tim, you look 1" or 2" more. May be you stand straight and with good posture.
glenn said on 3/Oct/07
casual shoes on top.boots with no heel on bottom.that was the event i was at.the zodiac pic with jake.
Korben said on 2/Oct/07
Another way to judge his height is by looking where his mouth comes at the top of glenns head, saying glenn in the bottom photo is 175cm tall or so (do you remember your shoes glenn?). Im 6'4" and in normal dress shoes (an inch or so), my mouth comes to about 173cm, so judging that our heads are about the same size, it says robbins is around 195cm, which is very belivable. Hes definatly taller then 6'4" as hes said in interviews, and looks it.
Anonymous said on 25/Sep/07
I met him in person one time and wouldn't be suprised if he was 6'6 I'm 6'1 and he towered over me I think when you're as tall as him in hollywood you want to round down as much as possible or you will start getting clumped into "tall guy roles"

Kevin Bacon (5' 10") and Laurence Fishbourne (6' 0") look like Tim Robbin's children being walked to school by him in one scene in Mystic River.
J-Dog said on 15/Aug/07
I saw him today as he stopped by the store I work at in Soho, looked 6'4.5" - 6'5" he was with his son and his soon is also tall looked around 6'3". Tim is also a big broad guy which I think makes him look even taller on many occasions. To me he seemed more 6'5"ish.
I didn't get as close to him as I got to Tom Hanks when he walked right by about 2 feet away from me.
James said on 2/Aug/07
No in the Shawshank Redemption looked his claim 6f4 and a half. Did not really look taller than this in the film. In fact when I watched the film for the second time I was quite suprised he did not look as quite as tall as I expected.

Yeah, 1m95 (between 6'4.5 and 6'5) for Robbins seems correct...

Glenn, if Philip Noyce is slighly over 6f4 then Tim Robbins must be more 195cm because judgin from photos of them together he looks a good inch taller if not more so i thik u should upgrade his height a cm more. Although i suppose he could be a lift wearer lol

Not a chance 5'11.5 guy, Tim is close to 6'5" (He said that he is "6-feet, 5-inches on a good day") , and if you check other pictures from Tim with Philip Noyce you will see that Robbins is just a bit taller than 6'4.25" Noyce. (For me Tim is close to 1m95 (similar to Craig Kilborn) and Noyce 1m93-1m94)
5'11.5 guy said on 10/Jun/07
In one pic I've seen, Robbins looks 2' taller than 6'4 Philip Noyce.
Craiger said on 4/Jun/07
he looks even tallrr then 6'5" in the movies, sometimes he can come acros as being 6'8" guy! but that is probably becasue he normally works with shorter actors/actresses, nevertheless I think he is a legit 6'5"
BigBen said on 1/Jun/07
One of my favourite tall guys. He is a brilliant actor. maybe 6'5 in his young days
Arjun said on 1/Jun/07
I agree Alex, Robbins only looks 6'3.5" - 6'4" max in the bottom picture, but as editor Rob says, it seems as though Glenn is slightly in front, given the position of their shoulders.
James said on 25/May/07
Have you seen Tims son he is exactley the same height as him if not a hair taller which would make him about 6ft5.
Puqqo said on 14/May/07
Tim is only 6'4" to 6'5"??? He looked like a giant in Nothing to loose.
Korben said on 11/May/07
huge dude, looks 6'5 in those pics, considering his mouth is at the top of your head, and with say steven segal or neeson its a bit below
James said on 11/Apr/07
He looks about 6ft6 when stood next to Jake Gylenall
TheJerk said on 10/Apr/07
Im gonna start calling you gleen now apparently its the thing to do.
TheJerk said on 10/Apr/07
Well, he did say he had a temper so you cant expect him to be overly friendly Glenn. He can look 6-5 in the famous 94' movie especially so.
Gonzalo said on 16/Mar/07
Duncan`s character in The Green Mile was supposed to be around 7 feet and he was shot to look that height. Movies can be decieving. Hollywood is the land of make-believe.
By the way, Morse looked so tall in that movie. At least 4 inches, maybe five. That would make him 6`4 minimum
Anonymous said on 15/Mar/07
Ok Viper, it's true. But for instance, Vincent D'onofrio is a big dude (almost 6'4") but in the pic with Gleen, he looks much shorter than that (give a look), now confront the pic of Vincent with the 1st pic of Pete Steele... The difference between D'onofrio and Stelle isn't that much, 2.5 inches (+- 6.5 cm) max.. Duncan in "The Green Mile" looks much taller than David Morse however is not more than one inch.... some photos can be deceiving. Good idea from Rob & company put more than one pic. (Alright Gleen...)
glenn said on 15/Mar/07
who says i dont have more pics of me and joey? its a matter of finding them is the tough part.
Viper said on 15/Mar/07
Alex, Pete is slouching big time in that 2nd picture still.
Alex V. said on 14/Mar/07
Another good example is Gleen with Pete Steele from Type O, in the first pic of them, Pete looks like a 6'9" guy, in the second one, Pete is to me, a bit more than 6'6".
Alex V. said on 14/Mar/07
Yeah Danimal you're right, one photo is not enough to judge someone's height. In this last pic of Gleen-Robbins, Tim is not supposed to be, more than 6'5" (i think Cromwell with 6'5" "too", is a bit taller). Sadly, Gleen can´t make a second photo with Joey Ramone...
Danimal said on 13/Mar/07
What about the The Ramones guy. He looks as tall as Novoselic does next to Glenn.
glenn said on 13/Mar/07
yes,you have a point alex v.
Anthony said on 13/Mar/07
Alex, Krist is standing bolt upright in Glenn's pic with him, but in the pic Glenn has with Brad, Brad is slouching big time. If Garrett were standing up straight he'd be taller than Krist for sure.
Alex V. said on 13/Mar/07
Ok Gleen, but you have to admit that Novoselic seems extremely tall in that pic of yours, more than you with Brad Garrett. And I know either that photos can be deceiving but he looks like a giant tower.
glenn said on 13/Mar/07
i dont know what the fuss or mystery is about,krist is 6-7.period.tim is 6-5.period.
Alex V. said on 13/Mar/07
Even Brad Garrett,(6'8" or plus), doesn't look that tall next to Gleen as Novoselic does.
Gonzalo said on 13/Mar/07
Novoselic looks taller than Robbins, a couple of inches. But he is not 6`9; remember him next to Charles Barkley. He was barely taller. Unless BArkley wears lifts which is mad.
Alex V. said on 13/Mar/07
The pic of Gleen with Novoselic is kinda strange... i don't believe Novoselic being that tall next to guys like Robbins or Cromwell (the same happened with Barkley and Novoselic). Krist is around 6'7", not 6'9" or more as the picture suggest. Maybe Gleen has an answer to that...
glenn said on 12/Mar/07
robbins isnt too friendly.
Danimal said on 12/Mar/07
Compare this pic to that of Glenn and Chris Novoselic (bassist for Nirvana) where the top of Glenn's head doesn't even reach his chin and people only claim 6'6" for him.
Gonzalo said on 12/Mar/07
Well, now Robbins looks as tall as I`d imagined. Around 6`5, as I always thought. Is he a nice guy, Glenn?
Anthony said on 11/Mar/07
Cool. And I agree. I think Robbins is between 6'5 and 6'6. 6'5.25 is my guess, if I had to get to the most exact I can think of. 6'7 looks accurate for Cromwell's peak. 6'5 looks right for today.
glenn said on 11/Mar/07
i think tim is more 6-5 and cromwell is 6-7.or was.anthony is correct.
Anthony said on 11/Mar/07
Films and photos are not always the best way to judge a peson's height. There are many factors associated with movies and photographythat can easily distort the perception of a person's height. That being said, I agree that Robbins has never looked as tall as 6'7 to me. I'd believe 6'6, though, or close to it.
Viper said on 11/Mar/07
Hes never looked 6-7. The tallest hes ever looked was in Shawshank appearing 6-6. In other movies and pictures he looks 6-5 max.
Anonymous said on 11/Mar/07
Hi Glenn,
Like the new pics. WOW, I was under the impression that both Tim Robbins and James Cromwell were around 6'4". It is more like 6'6" or 6'7". Tall boys!
Anthony said on 10/Mar/07
Tim looks 6'5 minimum in the second pic.
Danimal said on 10/Mar/07
It's been said that he was actually 6'7" in the past. In this new pic with Glenn, Tim's posture is bad. He's not straightening out.
Viper said on 10/Mar/07
Tim is looking more his height in the 2nd picture.
Anthony said on 26/Feb/07
I agree that he did look 6'6 in the film.
Viper said on 26/Feb/07
Well, he certaintly appeared it. He had a good deal of height over Freeman in that movie.
Anthony said on 25/Feb/07
Glenn is a bit closer to the camera.
Viper, I remember him wearing flats and even slippers at time in "The Shawshank Redemption". I don't think he'd wear lifts if he was already a legit 6'5.
Viper said on 25/Feb/07
Robbins looked 6-6 in Shawshank. I wonder what his footwear is.
hoops said on 24/Feb/07
i saw tim robbins today at a high school basketball tournament in manhattan that his son was playing in. he's a legit 6'5", probably a short 6'6"
Viper said on 18/Feb/07
Gonzalo, a 5-8 person looks like that next to me and Im just a flat 6-3. I dont know, I think maybe Glenn might have an advantage there.
Gonzalo said on 14/Feb/07
It has always surprised me that Robbins doesn`t look as tall as I expected next to Glenn. I even compare that pic with the pic of Glenn next to Forrest Whitaker. Forret looks as tall or even taller than Robbins next to Robbins. Well, I have found a pic of both actors together and Robbins looks around two inches taller. It is clear that Robbins is not under 6`4.5.
Click Here
Try this and write Tim Robbins in search. You will also find that Robbins is again taller than 6`4 Philip Noyce
Gonzalo said on 31/Jan/07
In this pic Robbins looks more than an inch taller than Phillip Noyce, who stands tall at around 6`4.
Click Here
Anthony said on 21/Jan/07
I read somewhere Penn stood next to John Cleese and looked taller than Cleese. Cleese is undoubredly a legit 6'5, so that make 6'4 for Penn somewhat unbelievable. But you never know.
Viper said on 21/Jan/07
Penn looks taller than just 6-4 on TV.
Viper said on 20/Jan/07
Cantstop, I saw a guy today who I thought looked around 6-5 from a distance, but as I got up close he looked 6-8. Its hard to judge from a distance.
Glenn said on 19/Jan/07
Penn was around 6-4 to me.Tim around 6-5.6-3.5 and 6-4.5 might be more accurate.
Glenn said on 19/Jan/07
Yes.by how much? not sure.
dmeyer said on 16/Jan/07
that guy could be 195 6'4.75
Gonzalo said on 16/Jan/07
Tim Robbins next to Madrid`s mayor, Alberto Ruiz Gallardón, who is at least 1`80.
Click Here
Glenn said on 11/Dec/06
I get your point Cant stop,but I can tell the difference.
Glenn said on 11/Dec/06
Yes,photos and MOVIES can be decieving.he seemed 6-5 to me.
Gonzalo said on 11/Dec/06
You guys rely too much on Glenn`s pic with Robbins. Pictures can be deceiving. Why don`t you rely on Glenn`s opinion about Robbins height? Are you suggesting he is not even 6`4? I always thought he was 6`5. Robbins himself says 6.4`5. He is very tall anyway, taller than 90% of the people
Glenn said on 6/Dec/06
Never mind that,some say 6-7!
Derek said on 5/Dec/06
I don't get it. Everyone says he's a legit 6'5", but Tim himself claims 6'4 1/2".
DocHolliday said on 4/Dec/06
I just passed by him walking on 16th street last week in NY, and he is a legit 6-5
Anonymous said on 2/Dec/06
To my eyes Robbins looks to have a an inch or so on the 6'4'' guy in the photo posted by Ed below. Robbins height is always given as 6'5'' in the press and I think for once they might be right. When your that tall you don't need to add on any extra inches in your publicity bio.
Viper652 said on 30/Nov/06
I think Tim looks bare minimum 6-4 in that picture.
Franco said on 16/Nov/06
a strong 6.5 imho.
Alex V. said on 14/Nov/06
Even with "that" kind of hair, Robbins is a little taller than Noyce. This pic (nice one Ed) and the other one featuring Andre Leon Talley, put Tim in the 6'4.5" - 6'5" mark, no more doubts for me anymore...
Viper652 said on 14/Nov/06
Somebody posted that Cusack was measured at the doctors office at 6-0 even.
Anthony said on 13/Nov/06
No, Cusack is a legit 6'2. There are enough sightings of him psoted on his page to confirm that.
Fifi said on 9/Nov/06
Tim Robbins is 6'4.5, I take his word for it.
Anthony said on 30/Oct/06
Then it that case, Tim might really be 6'6. There is about 4 inches between them. Tim to me has never looked only 6'4.5.
Gus said on 17/Oct/06
I agree that he will be something between 6'5 and 6'6. 6'7 is too much, even for him. By the way, happy birthday, Mr. Robbins!
Gonzalo said on 17/Oct/06
I don´t think Tim Robbins is 6`7. I think he is 6`5, 6`6 at the most.
Danimal said on 16/Oct/06
I agree Viper, but it just seems that Jason knew that Tim WAS 6'7", as if he'd told him so.
Anthony said on 16/Oct/06
6'7 is too big. I'd buy 6'6, but nothing over that.
As a side note, today's Tim's birthday. Happy birthday, big guy!
Viper652 said on 16/Oct/06
6-7 is to far out there for Robbins. Danimal, a 6-5 Robbins could look 6-7 to somebody as short as Priestley.
Alex V. said on 15/Oct/06
It's the "problem" with Robbins, no one believes that is only 6'4.5" or 6'5". He is taller than Conan Obrien, D`Onofrio, Stephan Fry, all of them in the 6'4" mark, a little bit shorter than Andre Leon Talley who is 6'7", i said some posts ago that if he claims his height of being 6'4.5" or 6'5" we should take it serious but now i dont have any sure...
Louie John Buluran said on 13/Oct/06
I would give Duncan 6 ft 3 1/2
Viper652 said on 13/Oct/06
Duncan is actually closer to 6-3. 6-4 Dwayne Wade and David Hasselhoff are taller than him in pictures.
Gus said on 13/Oct/06
Yesterday, Michael Clarke Duncan was on Conan O'Brian's show (here in Portugal there is some delay...). They discuss heights and Michael claimed to be 6'5" and Conan 6'4". When they initially shaked hands, they were standing next to each other and the difference between them wasn't clear. They appeared the same height. But, you know, they weren't still or straight, posing for a photo, therefore, is dificult to judge.
Anthony said on 11/Oct/06
I think Robbins might actually be something like 6'5.5 or 6'5.25.
Alex V. said on 11/Oct/06
I follow the tip above from Editor Rob and i saw "The Player" movie. There is a lineup scene in there, and seems that Robbins is close to 6'6" mark, however he's not full straight and his wearing flat shoes, one thing that is scary... a person with 6ft is a dwarf next to him. D`Onofrio is very tall too, but even with his cowboy boots, Tim is taller. Conclusion: For me, Tim Robbins is a 6'5"(maybe 1m95)barefoot. (It would be great to see a "clash" with these figures: Robbins, Stiles, Vaughn, Cromwell, Cleese)
sam said on 11/Oct/06
I've never bought him as being anything under 6'5". Of course, fractions of an inch are difficult to estimate, especially when someone is skying over everyone. The Andre Leon guy is the first time I've seen anyone taller next to Robbins, including in films.
Gonzalo said on 10/Oct/06
Tim Robbins next to Liev Schreiber, listed between 6`2 and 6`3. Not the best pic to judge but Robbins seems around trhee inches taller
Click HereTim Robbins dwarfing Eddie Vedder and also next to Tom Waits, listed here as 5`11.
Click HereHe is very, very tall.
Bob said on 6/Oct/06
he really looks to be at least 6-4.he can't be shorter.i have heard about tall tales about ceelebs, but not for him.he looks certainly at least 6-4.
Gonzalo said on 2/Oct/06
In the pic with Andre Leon Talley Robbins looks just two inches taller.
In this page there are some Robbins`pics in which he looks extremely tall. 6`5 at least. I don`t know he appears that "short" next to Glenn.

Anonymous said on 2/Oct/06
Robbins seems to have a very high forehead. His eyes are set really low down in his face compared to most people.
George H said on 2/Oct/06
About Duncan: it was said when The Green Mile was first out, by the stars themselves, that he wasn't really that big and only differed about an inch with Morse. They used camera trickery and some digital trickery to make him appear extremely big. The guys muscles are massive, though.
Alex V. said on 30/Sep/06
So do you think that Morse is taller than him? I agreed when you say that Duncan is not 6'4/6'5 (even if is mentioned almost everywhere), for me, not a chance he could be so tall as Robbins.
patrina said on 30/Sep/06
tim looks kind of 194~195cm tall range..and his about 190pounds nowadays..
Viper652 said on 29/Sep/06
Duncan is closer to 6-3 in reality.
Cantstop25 said on 29/Sep/06
and yes I understand that i have no life for going through every one of those photos. His son jack is tall, might end up taller then his old man.
Cantstop25 said on 29/Sep/06
well isnt it funny that out of all 2350 photos I was only able ot find one person taller then him! Rarely did anybody even come close! though all of the people who were close were not actors they were people I was not quite familiar with. Im starting to think that hollywood is the land of the little people.
Alex V. said on 29/Sep/06
Well Cantstop25, indeed the picture proves that Tim is not that big however he is really very tall(seems to me that André is not more than 5 cm taller). Gus the name of the man is Michael Clarke Duncan and his height is estimated between 6'4 and 6'5, in "The Green Mile" movie there is another actor (David Morse) that is less than one inch short than Duncan.
Gus said on 29/Sep/06
Well, there's always a bigger fish...:-))
Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Shaquile O'Neal, etc. are all above 2.00m (over 6ft7) and are in the movie business (maybe just because they made success anywhere else first). What about the afro guy o made the convicted in Tom Hank's "Green Mile". He's BIG (in all directions). What's his name?
Cantstop25 said on 29/Sep/06
Finally I have found a man taller then robbins his name is Andre Leon Talley
Click Herebut I cnat find hsi height so he doesnt count
Editor Rob
6ft 7
Viper652 said on 27/Sep/06
Why are you using transitive property Mario? Thats what he looked like to me in Shawshank. Not saying hes truly only 6-1.
Mario said on 27/Sep/06
And what height would you give James Woods and Keanu Reeves if Morgan Freeman is 6 ft 1? 5 ft 8 1/2 to woods and 5 ft 11 to reeves? It just doesn't make sense.
Viper652 said on 27/Sep/06
Morgan Freeman looked 6-1 next to him.
Alex V. said on 26/Sep/06
I have seen that there is another user named "Alex", very sorry to you didn´t know... (His comment: "Alex says on 10/Jul/06...")
J. said on 25/Sep/06
I'm just saying, respect the guy for the height he wants to be known as. If he says he's under 6'5", then let's just take his word for it.
Viper652 said on 25/Sep/06
Hes nothing below his stated 6-4 1/2, thats for sure.
Alex said on 25/Sep/06
J. has said what i was trying to say. 6'5" or 6'6" has a certain impact but he is not that height so why keep forcing?! For instance when he tells "I'm six foot four and a half and I have a temper" (with an "effort"...), "6-feet, 5-inches on a good day"... It´s all here...
Zach said on 25/Sep/06
Why someone might round down their height, Dolph Lundgren explains:
In impact magazine he revealed that height caused him a problem initially: "I was turned down at my first audition for Rocky 4 for being too tall, I was 6ft 5in and you were supposed to be 6ft 3in maximum. I didn't know what the casting call was for and I just showed up, they asked me how tall I was, I said 6ft 5in and they said "Next!".
Zach said on 25/Sep/06
This guy towered over Morgan Freeman, he's 6'5 at least.
Jason said on 25/Sep/06
Why would he downgrade his height to 6'4 1/2'' if he's 6'5''? 6'4 1/2'', 6'5'' - what's the difference? :) If he was concerned about his height, he'd downgrade by more than half an inch I think.
J. said on 25/Sep/06
Well, for some reason people are insisting he's a solid 6'5" or taller, when he's saying that he's UNDER that figure or just barely around it. That's how he is being honest. It wasn't like I had to explain.
Mario said on 24/Sep/06
Some people who is really tall tend to round there height down. I'm not saying that Robbins is lying, but renember that he has once said that he was also 6 ft 5. And to be honest he looks taller than 194 cm, next to legitimate 188cm guy's like Del Toro.
Glenn said on 23/Sep/06
I dont get it.whats so honest when your around 6-5?
Mr. E said on 23/Sep/06
I think that Robbins may be 6'5" maybe even 6'6"....hard to say. He towers over Eastwood who was once a legit 6'4"...it coould be a "Hollywood" thing where Tim undercuts himself to get more leading man roles. Sounds stupid, I know, but I say Robbins could be 6'5"
J. said on 22/Sep/06
I agree, Alex. People try to dispute but Tim's just being honest. A Hollywood rarity.
Alex said on 21/Sep/06
I think that he is one of the rare people that tells his right height (barefoot)...
Gus said on 21/Sep/06
Last night, it the Biography channel, was Sean Penn's life. On a picture about Mystic River, I saw, side by side, Tim, Sean and Clint (Eastwood, who directs the film). Tim seamed - at least - 2 inches above Clint. I'm beeing very conservative, it may be 3 inches. The difference was that clear!
George H said on 20/Sep/06
From all the photographic material and few movies I've seen of this guy, he strikes me as one long, lean fella. He sure gives the impression to be well above 6'4", possibly even above 6'5" or in the 6'6" range. That last thing might be because he has a rather narrow built. I mean, he's not as massive looking as for instance Rock Hudson was when he was Robbins' age. Hudson had much bigger shoulders compared to the narrowness of his hips, whereas Robbins' more has the physique of a ruler rofl. Either way, if he describes himself as 6'5" on a good day, I think he's downplaying his height by about an inch. I know plenty of 6'5" guys (both my sons hover around that height) and although their built is more similar to Hudson's than Robbins', they usually don't give the beanstalk impression in photos that Robbins does. JMO
Gus said on 19/Sep/06
Ok. 6'6" is 1.98m. I agree with 6'5". Is realistic and Tim himself mention this figure. But again, the guy is never vertically stretched! Why? Why is he always looking so shy? If he move the shoulders backwards, chest forward, chin up, then we'll be closer to the truth, don't you agree?
dmeyer said on 19/Sep/06
i dont think he is less than 195
Anonymous said on 19/Sep/06
I think that this guy should be knocked back to 6'5''. He was in the film IQ with the English actor Stephen Fry who is himself 6'4.5''. Robbins was I seem to recall a little taller. Not by much but you could see a difference.
