Tom Wopat's Height
5ft 11 (180.3 cm)
Peak height was 6ft 0 (182.9 cm)
American actor, best known for playing Luke Duke in The Dukes of Hazzard. In film he appeared in Jonah Hex and Django Unchained. His official website listed him at 6ft 1, an earlier TV superstars book from the 70's listed him 6ft. In this photo I was wearing Clarks Boots, whilst Tom's footwear was quite similar in thickness.

Rob, is a strong 6ft peak arguable?
Didn't get towered by Schneider on Dukes and even in more recent photos the difference isn't that much!

But in your photos he barely makes 5ft11...

Holding up exceptionally well opposite Welling and Schneider during his brief appearance in Smallville! I see max 2in between him and the two of them if not less!

I should go back and look at Dukes, haven't seen it in many years....Schneider I think could be dipping under 6ft3 now but I wouldn't go to 6ft2 flat

Perhaps his peak height was a fraction under 5ft11 but now he's barely 5ft10. He's wearing a cap and he still looks roughly the same height with Rob in this pic. Rob says he's 5ft8 and that he and Tom Wopat are in similar footwear so Wopat is 5ft10 in shoes and a bit below that barefoot. John Schneider must be a bit less than 6ft3, arguably around 6ft2, nowadays.

Certainly looks 179 range next to Rob,but could be close to 180,so 5'10.75 seems fair to me.

I me and stood right next to Ben Jones, who plyed Cooter, at a car show, about 11 or 12 ears ago. Jones would have been just past 60. I'm 6 even. He wa, to my surprise, easily an inch and a half or more shorter. Yeah, he as 61 or 62. But, people, generally, don't lose inches by that age. But certainly, he was no 6'1 on the Dukes, or 6'3 as his official height says. It made me call into question the official heights of all other actors on the show, from Schneider, to Wopat, to Best and Hurst (sometimes listed as 6'5). Jones never looked that much shorter than those guys...if even shorter, at all (In some cases).

Saw him years ago onstage in Glengarry Glen Ross and he looked a bit sub-six feet then. Rough estimate from memory, he was more than an inch under Jeffrey Tambor, maybe 2.5 under Alan Alda & Frederic Weller and maybe a bit more than 3 inches under Liev Schreiber.

You should add James Best(dukes of hazzard) also was in Hooper with Burt Reynolds. I think he was a bit over 6' i would estimate.

I would put Tom Wopat at 6'1. He was the same height as Denver Pyle and James Best on the Dukes Of Hazzard.

Looks 181-182cm with the hat. Plus he has 1in more sneaker.
About 5"10.5"(179cm) max today. The peak height is questionable aswell.

...I don't know if Ben Jones is on this site (Coter), but I always thought he was right up there with all these other Dukes stars listed as 6'1 or so. I met him ten years ago. Super, super nice, but I'm 6 even and would put him at 5'10. Whatever stars are listed as, on various other sites or magazines, is rarely the case.

Editor Rob If someone like Mamun can go and tell Leno about this site and then leno goes and pulls a big lean for a photo, you can see why sometimes an actor might 'spoil' your photo.
of course seeing as the site has been (compared to other 'celeb height' sites) mentioned a number of times in magazines, radio shows etc, it's not unheard of that some actors know about it ;)

This is what a legit 180.34cm or 5'11 guy should look like with you Rob. You should do a stadiometer comparison with Brian Austin Green and this guy. BAG will be shorter than him no doubt.

He raised his head up a little in the picture which made him looked taller than 180cm. He's about 180cm spot on. A 178cm dude would've had eye-level across the middle forehead of Rob and Jenny (173cm).

Actually take away the hat and he's 5"10(178cm) max if not a wee bit shorter.
Peak height was 5"11.5(182cm) and today is 5"10.5(179cm).
Can't believe he was once listed here as 6"1.

I met John Schneider at the Cleveland AutoRama years ago, and he was a legit 6'3". On the Dukes, he looked a good 3" taller or so then Tom Wopat, so I would think Tom was around 6'0" in his prime, or close to that, maybe even a little under 6'.

He looked more in the SMALLVILLE 5th season 6th episode "exposed" where he seems to be 6'1; I am sure they managed to make look so, by respect toward the "dukes" vet he will remain for ever;
I'll add just he is much better looking now than younger; I also find John Schneider much interesting now than with his teenage angel face!

Editor Rob 2 wopat's? Thanks, I'll delete the taller version...some of the heights in these books are of course way off (the worst are robert blake 5ft 9 and Linda Carter 6ft), but a lot are close to what I'd estimate them aswell (fonzy 5ft 6.5, Travolta 6ft, majors 6ft etc). They are useful for showing heights that were around before the web. You see, on some websites (no name given ;-) ) it won't state where a height comes from, be it a quote from an actor, a mention in a magazine, a guess by someone, a publicity agent or a book.
Many of them in those books will be from agents though, so a proportion of them are naturally inflated.
