Dominic Monaghan, precisely 5ft 6¾ (169.5 cm) tall, is a British actor whose compact stature became iconic in his breakout role as the hobbit Merry in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, perfectly embodying the character's diminutive yet brave presence alongside fellow short-statured hobbits.
His height further accentuated his vulnerable, everyman charm as Charlie Pace in the hit series LOST, where his 5ft 6 frame contrasted dynamically with taller co-stars during intense survival scenarios.
Monaghan also hosted the nature series Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan (2012–2016), leveraging his approachable, pint-sized persona to connect with audiences on adventurous explorations.
