Angus T. Jones, precisely 5ft 7 (170.2 cm) tall, rose to fame as the dim-witted Jake Harper on the long-running sitcom Two and a Half Men. His height perfectly suited the character's perpetually youthful and pint-sized image, leading fans to perceive him as smaller than he is. In a 2011 People magazine interview, Jones addressed this, stating, "I'm only 5'7", but people seem to think I'm small. Maybe they've just seen a lot of reruns." This stature became a defining aspect of his child-star persona during the show's nine seasons.
