Yeah 5'6.25 at worse nothing below it can't see him at 5'6 flat. 5-6.75 at most. So 5'6.5 is the sweetspot. Surprised he's still this listing as he looks a full 8 inches shorter than a 6'2.5 Will Ferrel. And in the comparison of him with Mark Wahlberg, and with RDJ, he looks 2 inches shorter. Although I'm not proposing he'd actually measure 2 inches shorter than either of those two under normal circumstances, i think a full 5 ft 7 should be ruled out. I have a hard time believing he'd be the same height as a legit 5 ft 7er like James McAvoy. 5'6.5 Jon Stewart appeared to be taller as well.

He is definitely not 5'7. Max is probably 5'6.5 at best, 5'6.25 seem more reasonable though.

He looks too short with 5'7.75 RDJ to Be a legit 5'7. Maybe 5'6 1/2.

He may very well be 5'6.5 at a stretch but I think realistically Zach is a very strong 5'6" tall.
Can't really see much more for this guy. Robert downey Jr. who appears to be around 5'8" tall had him in "Due Date" (2010) by a good 2 inches.

Why does google search list him as 5'8. He stated clearly as 5'7. He even looks shorter than his co-stars in a majority of his movies.

Oh give me a break, he looks like a dwarf from the lord of the rings. He is NOT 5'7, you want me to believe he would be eye to eye with guys like James Dean, Michael Pena, and James McAvoy? Look how short he looks in the picture above he has the leg length of a 5'4-5'5 guy.

I don't think he'd measure under 5'6.5. He's on the heavy side so he can strike you as shorter, but around the 5'7 mark I would say is a good shout.

The Will Ferrell/Mark comparison with Will and Zach are perfect. If Mark is 5'8 (which he might be shorter), there is no way Zach is only one inch shorter than Mark. Zach is at least two inches shorter than Mark.

The more I see of him the more I'm sure he's 5'6 tops. A good scene for height comparison is the one where Cooper, Helms and Zach are in the monastery in Hangover 2, they are all barefoot on a line. Ed Helms actually looks as tall or a tiny bit taller than Cooper.
Ed Helms - 182,5 cm
Bradley Cooper - 182,0 cm
Zach Galifinakis - 168,5 cm

there is no way the difference with galfianakis is only 1 inch extra. it's at least least 2 inches. and if you watch due date, you'll see a similar roughly 2 inch difference between rdj and galfianakis.
i'd say 5'6, 168cm

He looks short in all his movies. In the hangover he is at least 15 cm shorter than bradley cooper who is about 182cm. In bored to death he is slightly taller than jason who i think is 5 foot 4 at most. I would say zach is 167cm at most. 170cm is a stretch

In terms of acting ability, looks and star quality, Cruise owns a hell of a lot of actors
it ain't by chance movie theaters sell so many tickets when it's about any Tom Cruise film. that itself says enough how good it is to see him on screen. imagine if Cruise was 5ft10. anyone else wouldn't even be noticed.
