AUSTIN, TEXAS: Joseph James Rogan, widely recognized as Joe Rogan, has established himself as a prominent figure in the MMA world. He is also an UFC commentator, podcast host, comedian, actor, and former television presenter who has achieved global acclaim.

His journey began in the realm of stand-up comedy, eventually propelling him to the helm the immensely popular podcast, 'The Joe Rogan Experience.' This platform serves as a dynamic forum, engaging with an extensive spectrum of subjects encompassing events, humor, and politics.

Rogan is also a proficient martial artist, having attained the esteemed status of a black belt in Karate, Taekwondo, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. 

Despite his multifaceted fame, Rogan is no stranger to criticism and online trolling. One particular detail that has stirred scathing online takes is his height.

In certain videos, Rogan's actual height appears to be nearer to 5 feet 7 inches (170 cms) as observed during his public appearances with other celebrities. But his Wikipedia page states he is slightly taller, at 5 feet 8 inches (172.7 cms).

This assertion has sparked discussions, comparisons, and even amusingly, skywriting jests, all aimed at trolling his height. So how tall is Joe Rogan, actually?

Does Joe Rogan lie about his height?

Back in 2015, Rogan's height stirred up a substantial controversy, triggered by a skywriting gesture for a marriage proposal. As various fighters and athletes playfully challenged Rogan about his height, he publicly declared himself as standing tall at 5 feet 8 inches (172.7 cms).

This assertion gained additional reinforcement from fans who claimed personal encounters with him. However, his official IMDb profile listed his height as 5 feet 7 and a half inches (171.4 cms), adding another layer to the debate over his 'real' height.

Responding to online jests, Rogan took to Twitter to provide clarity and respond to the trolling. It read, “@codymfhurst @JoeyStats707 It's people being changing wikipedia because we were joking around about it. I'm short, but not that short 5' 8""

Is Joe Rogan actually 5'8?

Amid widespread skepticism surrounding Rogan's self-professed height of 5 feet 8 inches (172.7 cms), Internet sleuths embarked on a quest to uncover the truth. A prevalent belief emerged that the UFC commentator likely stood shorter than his stated height.

One of the enigmatic episodes of 'The Joe Rogan Experience' gave rise to further scrutiny, shedding light on the matter. Within the video, a discernible consensus emerged that his actual height appears to fall within the range of 5'7" to 5'8", roughly translating to around 172 centimeters (5 feet 7.7 inches). Rogan may have been 'rounding off' his stats to claim he was 5 feet 8 inches (172.7 cms).

How tall is Joe Rogan's wife?

For a span of 14 years until 2023, Joe Rogan's wife has been Jessica Ditzel, a former model, who currently works as a Product Analyst and is an Account Executive.

Ditzel is recognized as a notable personality and celebrity in her own right. Aged 44, she boasts a height of 5 feet 10 inches (178 cms). A direct comparison of the heights of Rogan and Ditzel makes it apparent that Rogan stands shorter than his wife.

As indicated by various sources, Rogan was romantically involved with American actress Jerri Manthey, who stands at a height of 5'6", roughly equivalent to 167 centimeters.

Reportedly, their relationship was marked by frequent conflicts, often likened to quarreling "like cats and dogs," suggesting that they did not share a strong emotional bond.

Joe Rogan’s height got trolled in sky writing

In the year 2021, Rogan became the target of relentless trolling regarding his height. Sky writing appeared over West Hollywood, that cheekily stated "Joe Rogan is literally 5' 3," claiming Rogan was only 160 centimeters in height. After that, social media went wild. One tweet read, “Joe Rogan is literally 5-foot-3” Sky written over WeHo.” Another tweet simultaneously rubbished the height debate while also calling out Rogan for ignoring his white, male privileges, saying, “JOE ROGAN IS 5' 3" OF POWERFUL IGNORANCE So 'Joe Rogan is literally 5' 3" ' was written in the sky. I don't care about his height. I care about asshole statements like this: "Joe Rogan Says Giving Into The Woke Mob Will Result In ‘Straight White Men’ Not Being Allowed To Talk"
