Well, he is a frost giant...

When I was writing my Molly/Alec fic, I was trying to figure out what their height difference would look like. Turns out, Daniel Radcliffe has my back. Dan is 1-2 inches taller than Loo Brealey, but probably about the same as Molly in her shoes.

There is also a useful height comparison tool, where you can enter the height of yourself (or one character) and choose a celebrity (one that matches the height of your other character) and it will do a rough comparison of height.

Now you know.

Man the internet is chock full of useful things.

This reminds me of an article that talked about James McAvoy and Dan Radcliffe getting cast in the new Frankenstein and how the article's author speculated it was due their similarly less than tall heights.

Isn't it though? There is even a website devoted to celebrity heights, and not just reporting what the celebs have stated as their heights, but with full on debates and evidence to prove a quarter or half inch either way, as though it were some great conspiracy.

Though I confess that most actors are shorter than I would have guessed, I imagine because of shoe lifts and apple boxes and trick photography to make them look better.

Still, it's wonderful for my detail obsessed self.
