I See His Height Was Downgraded to 6'2 3/4

Not a big deal but people have been saying he's closer to 6'2 1/2 for the longest so, it's curious to see the IMDB updated.

Probably too many receipts from witnesses who discerned that he wasn't as tall as he claimed. Reminds me of when Jason Momoa use to claim 6'5 but eventually claimed 6'4. Interesting that tall men lie/exaggerate their height too. Not saying CH went out of his way to lie but just that men always try to get an inch in, even when they're already tall.

I think it's actually always been listed on imdb as 6'2 3/4, but he's commonly listed as 6'3. It's normal for people to round off. I'm 5'5 1/2 but it's just easier to say 5'6. Half inch and quarter inch really isn't much to bat an eye over

One time on a red carpet interview, his height was brought up. He himself said he is 6ft 3". So I'd tend to believe him over IMDb. Originally I'm pretty sure IMDb stated his height as 6ft 3and 1/4inches.

The dude actually looks taller than 6'3".

Guys that are definitely 6 feet look very short next to him.

It also might be a metric to inches thing. If he said 6'3", that might have been easier to say than thinking of an exact conversion.
