Tom Cruise has never been taller than 5'7. I don't know where people are getting 5'7.75. If anything, he's shrunk from his peak height of 5'7 in 1986's 'Top Gun' where Cruise appeared tiny compared to every other pilot in that film, and of course Kelly McGillis who at 5'10 towered over Cruise.
1. Tom Cruise: 5'7''. Arguably the easiest target of ridicule in the Hollywood height community, Cruise has garnered a lot of taunting over the years because of his shorter stature. He's mostly known for playing tough guys and action heroes, and our perception of a guy like that is he should be an enormously tall man.
