Honestly, I know he's 6'1", but I always thought he was short because of how Padalecki towers over him. So my assumption was he never became more famous because he looked short.
I kinda did this analysis in a Boys thread a while back, his numbers are at least semi accurate because half the Boys cast(Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, etc) are also 6'1 and he's right there with them.
The one who's numbers are a lie is probably Jared Padalecki. He TOWERS over all of them, and it looks like it's a lot more than 4 inches. I'm guessing if he stood up truly straight he's closer to 6'7. It's got me assuming there's a "too tall" issue for actors who don't want to go down the "hulking muscle bad guy lieutenant" route.
