Eddie Deezen, precisely 5ft 10 (177.8 cm) tall, leveraged his lanky frame and height to embody iconic awkward, nerdy characters throughout his career.
Known for standout roles like the gangly Eugene in Grease, the eccentric in 1941, and voices in The Polar Express and WarGames, his 5ft 10 stature enhanced his signature hyperactive, towering-teen image in films such as Surf II and Beverly Hills Vamp.
This height, paired with his slim 145-pound build from his resume, made him a go-to for comedically elongated oddballs in 1980s cinema.
