    It's amazing how many of these actors were able to conceal their shortness or tallness
    in stature, during their acting careers! At 77, I have seen a few of them, in person, &
    knew that they were much shorter then they appeared on screen! Even some tall actors
    had to hide their extreme height, for fear of being too tall for female co-stars! Great job!

    I have to say Mark for actors born before 1940 I seemed to know a lot. Mostly from old movies growing up as a kid. This looks like it has taken off in the right direction mate and I hope the trend explodes from now on. It's so reassuring that most of the popular actors ever filmed are of normal height and not extremely tall. There is hope for us yet mate!

      Same applies to part 1. Great videos by the way.
      I’m a fan of Clint Eastwood who stood 6.4. I saw a picture of him recently with the actor Jason Momao who is 6.4.
      I know Clint is 92 and I know people lose height as they grow older but in the pics of him with Momoa he barely reached Momoas Shoulder with the top of his head. It appears that Clint is around 5.8 or less now. That’s a lot of height to lose. I did think it could be the angle of the picture but there were several images and it’s clear that Clint has sadly lost a lot of height.

    While I enjoyed the height comparisons, there's no way that Jack Webb was 5-feet 10-inches tall. That was the whole, long-running joke about his prolific radio and television career: he went into acting because he didn't meet the height requirement for his dream job in the LAPD. At best, he was 5'6" or 5'7".

There was a French silent actor at 7 feet+ before WWI. He was one of the first actors they built sets "around". They put a "trough" in the floor for him to stand in while normal sized people stood on the set floor-remarkable for the time.
