Jason Statham’s Height, Weight And Body Measurements

Jason Statham’s may not be the best fit for many people’s choice of great Hollywood stars, but he is undoubtedly one of the fittest in the industry. With his endearing British accent and rugged looks, Jason is also one actor who knows what film role best fits him; he takes no funny or less active roles. Anytime you see Jason in movies, the actor is either punching, shooting, or kicking people. You could easily call him a con man, hitman, as well as a veteran.

Best known for his roles in films like Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels, The Transporter, Crank, and The Expendables, Jason remains one of Hollywood’s most consistent leading men in action movies. Beyond his acting skills, many are drawn to him mostly because of his height and physical fitness. Fans who have met him believe that he’s much shorter than he appears in most of his movies. And this has aroused curiosity, with many wanting to know more about the actor’s height and body measurements. All these and more you’d be happy to learn in the following paragraphs.

How Tall Is Jason Statham?

The renowned English actor and filmmaker may well be qualified for Hollywood’s fittest men, but he’s certainly not getting on the list of tallest people in the industry. Not even the top 20 list that includes the likes of Brad Garrett, Armie Hammer, and Joel McHale who are 6′ 8″, 6′ 5″, and 6′ 4″, respectively. Jason is 5 feet 10 inches tall, which is quite cool for an average guy but not with sports like basketball, where the average height for a player is 6’7″. However, the actor is much taller than basketball point guard, Anthony “Spud” Webb who is 5′ 7″, and basketball coach and former NBA star, Keith “Mister” Jennings who is also 5′ 7”.

Back home in the industry where he belongs, the actor does share equal height with the likes of Taylor Swift, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and ‘Ted’ actor Mark Wahlberg. On the other hand, he is an inch taller than the likes of Jackie Chan, Eddie Murphy, Jamie Fox, Tylor Lautner, and Conor McGregor, who are all 5’9″. Persons like Dwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel, who often share similar film roles as Statham, are quite taller than he is by a few inches. The two Fast and Furious actors have their height measurements as 6′ 5″ and  6′ 4″, respectively.

Also, there are arguments about Jason devising some tricks to make himself appear taller in most of his films. Many believe he wears elevator shoes, which could be possible especially with a pair of well-designed Chamaripa elevator shoes that gives two to five inches of automatic elevation without anyone noticing

If you are a true fan of the Fast and Furious film series, you would as well notice that all of the film’s leading actors appear to have the same height. This could be assumed to be part of the film’s trick. Imagine the scene where five-foot-ten Jason Statham stands and looks at six-foot-five Johnson (the Rock) eyeball to eyeball.

One other interesting fact you would love to know about Jason’s height is that somehow, he finds himself dating women who are either the same height as him or even lower. All the ladies he has dated in the past, including  Kelly Brook and Sophie Monk (both 5’6″) and Courteney Cox (5′ 5″) are a few inches below him. Only Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, his current girlfriend, and fiancee are naturally 5’10”, except when she throws on a pair of heels.
