How tall is Chuck Norris

American actor and Martial Artist best known for movies like The Delta Force, Invasion USA, Missing in Action, Lone Wolf McQuade, Expendables 2 and TV show Walker, Texas Ranger. I found an article from AustinActors where the writer says: "In addition, Terry and Eddy both mentioned, "You know Chuck wears lifts in his shoes." Supposedly, Chuck is only around 5'7" tall and most of the people playing opposite of him were required to be his height or shorter". In his book 'The Secret of Inner Strength' Chuck claimed, "I am 5' 10" and weigh 170 pounds."

I remember I even went in to play Chuck Norris' wife in something and was told you can't be over 5 foot 8.

I spent years trying to get cast on Walker Texas Ranger but getting turned down because I was too tall to act with Chuck Norris, who’s elf-sized. Now I’ll never get to be on the new version because I’ll be too short for @jarpad. What’s a normal height guy to do?
... He claims 5’10”, but according to his Air Force records, he’s 5’8 ½ “. At any rate, as a general rule, guest stars on his show couldn’t be taller than that. I’m 5’ 11 ½”. Thirty years ago, I was 6’ 1”.
