I don't believe this one

Tom Cruise's height is 5 ft 7.75 in (172 cm)

US Actor from Mission Impossible and Top Gun. The Biggest star in Hollywood has had terrible flak in the press for being 'short'. His height is regularly listed as being either 5ft 7 or 5ft 9. Ex-wife Nicole remarked in 2001, 'Now I can wear heels again'. She also said she was a couple of inches taller than him.

I heard a quote from Scottish comedian Billy Connolly, who remarked that Tom wasn't short...that he 'Tom was at least 5ft 10'. He's now integrated his remarks about Tom into his act: "Smashing guy. Everybody thinks he's a small guy. He's not. I think they would like him to be wee. I think they're jealous bastards."

There's a great picture of Tom beside a 185cm baseball player and it's hard to see Cruise taller than 5ft 7 in it (but unfortunately we can't see their feet in it so the baseballer might be on a verge and tom couple inches below). However, sometimes you find photos where the shoes can clearly be seen and then you realise Tom may actually be nearer 5ft 8!

I think Tom is shorter than 5'7 and I think he's been shrinking.
