    Vin Diesel … 6 feet tall, according to Google – which means he’s likely somewhere between 5’10” and 6′ IRL. In photos next to Paul Walker (6’1-ish) and Dwayne Johnson (6’3-ish), he’s shorter than both – even with clear lift-soled shoes on – and he also has tattoos.

    This has got to be Sly Stallone ! Seen him out and about when I worked in a very famous department store . He is Action Man Toy size !!!

    Tom Cruise. I stood next to him once. He is maybe 5’7″, which is fine. He has gorgeous hair!

    Sylvester Stallone

    The hint was “a few sly centimeters…”

      I thought so too except the similar blind was largely guessed as Tom Selleck so I think it’s pointing to Tom Cruise.

    Stallone (and I think he’s awesome!)!

      Slyvester Stallone….I luv this Actor & his beautiful, talented family!

      Regardless of possible lifts in shoes, (maybe more for comfort)?

      Sly still married two Models much taller than he, so I doubt he has a “small-man complex”. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Robert Downey Jnr (Iron Man). Officially his height is 5’9” but other sources suggest it is only 5’7″

  12. CyndiTx123 says

    July 3, 2020 at 5:21 am

    tom cruise of course…..

  13. no_one_no9 says

    July 3, 2020 at 5:09 am

    This is giving me Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson vibes. But it’s ok with me, he’s gorgeous with or without a little help in the height department.

    • TangiestIllicitness says

      July 3, 2020 at 8:47 am

      He’s 6’5″ and has done several roles where he was barefoot or wearing basic flat shoes (Baywatch, Hercules, Tooth Fairy, The Scorpion King). I don’t think he’s worried about his height. lol

    • TeaDrinker says

      July 3, 2020 at 4:20 pm

      The Rock is 6’5″!!! I seriously doubt he needs help in the height department. You must be like 9 feet tall to think he’s short.

    • carozo says

      July 4, 2020 at 6:09 am

      The Rock is 6’3″

      July 4, 2020 at 5:20 pm

      The additional question was “which other actors.” No mention of action.

  21. rosiedoes says

    Sly Stallone.

  25. Jeanesgenes says

    Haven’t the slightest idea who else is that vain.

  26. badgerette85 says

    July 2, 2020 at 8:07 pm

    Has to be Tom Cruise…tho the “sly” has me second guessing! Hmmmmm

  27. Teressa S says

    July 2, 2020 at 8:03 pm

    So many LILLIPUTIANS to chose from –
    There’s BURT REYNOLDS, ROBERT DOWNEY, VIN DIESEL, STALLONE, even TOM HARDY ….

    But I’m gong to go with the short psychopathic Scientologist shrimp named TOM CRUISE.

  28. jrgius says

    Conor McGregor

  29. WorkHardBeNice says

    July 2, 2020 at 7:52 pm

    You and I both know this is Jeremy Renner.

    • aaaJMary says

      July 3, 2020 at 11:28 am

      Not a chance. Renner did Celebrity IOU and they all joked about his height on two separate occasions. There is no way people like Cruise or RDJ would tolerate that. Renner does not have an issue with his height, other than pretending he is 5’10” on his old resume, probably so he could get his foot in the door for auditions.

  30. kurlykolly says

    July 2, 2020 at 7:44 pm

    Tom Cruise

  34. deliavonteese says

    Tom Hardy

  35. VeronicaMarsBars says

    Actor: Sylvester Stallone
    Optional: Tom Cruise

  36. VegasMike says

    July 2, 2020 at 6:50 pm

    Stallone (“add a few sly centimeters to his height “)

    Tom Cruise. Wesley Snipes. Probably quite a few others…

  37. Sassymom says

    July 2, 2020 at 5:50 pm

    I can only think of Tom Cruise.

  38. llabine1 says

    July 2, 2020 at 5:04 pm

    Two come to mind :
    Tom Cruise or Sylvester Stallone….I’m leaning toward Cruise

  39. Theonewhoknows says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:55 pm

    Surely this can’t be about nobody but little Tommy Cruise.

    This seems like exactly the kind of thing he’d do.

  40. boyjack4 says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:49 pm

    Tom Cruise

  41. El Materdor says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:42 pm

    This Tommy boy Cruise

  42. omgimbackagain says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:41 pm

    RDJ is really obvious about it and I think this is him.

    With Tommy Cruise, he sometimes looks like he’s wearing lifts but he also owns his height in a way that many actors don’t. Mel Gibson and Sylvester Stallone seem like they’re wearing lifts.

  43. janep151 says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:39 pm

    Tom Cruise probably has socks as well as shoe lifts.

    Others: Kit Harington (Jon Snow)

  44. kavanah says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:35 pm

    Sylvester Stallone

  45. JustKay says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:31 pm

    Vin Diesel. Well known for being 5′ 11″ but he constantly lies and says he is 6’1″ or 6’2″ his stats always flucuates. And almost any site out there shows an inconsistency.

    • Teressa S says

      July 5, 2020 at 1:09 pm

      5’11 is not considered short

  46. gossipvice says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:30 pm

    Marky Mark (aka Mark Wahlberg)

  47. AmateurGossipHour says

    July 2, 2020 at 4:20 pm

    Actor: Sylvester Stallone

    [Optional] Which other actors wear lifts?
    Tom Cruise.

    Daniel Radcliffe.
    Burt Reynolds.

  63. Fifi53 says

    July 2, 2020 at 2:25 pm

    Tom Cruise wears lifts in his shoes, but the wee thing is making me think he’s someone Scottish? Gérard Butler?

    Still gonna go with Tom Cruise, cos he seems an awfully wee person

  64. misstilley says

  71. LadyHawke71 says

    July 2, 2020 at 1:28 pm

    Stallone.

    Optional; I’ll go for the obvious one of Tom Cruise….Bogart used to too….

  72. ILUVCA4evr says

    July 2, 2020 at 1:17 pm

    Actor: At first I thought Stallone…but the tats make me think of The Rock

    [Optional] Which other actors wear lifts? Oh, Tom Cruise most definitely. Doesn’t help him though.

  73. mommagoosed says

    July 2, 2020 at 1:06 pm

    Sly Stallone? 🤣 We already know about Tommy Boy’s lifts in his shoes. 😁
