Tom Cruise's height is reported to be around 170cm give or take. Anyone wonder why he has never gotten LL surgery done? Especially since he has the time and money.
His height is an issue for him. When going out in public, he reportedly commonly wears elevator shoes and in movies in close scenes with taller actors he at times stands on elevated platforms to reduce the height difference. With LL surgery he could avoid all that.
Not everyone shares this view, but I think as long as you're average height and above for the region or country where you live, your height shouldn't really be a problem or concern.
There is also actor, Peter Dinklage. Even with his dwarfism, for some reason he hasn't decided or choose not to undergo LL. Considering his age now, it probably wouldn't be a good idea. But considering he would vastly improve his proportions if he did LL and if he did his arms too, his dwarfism wouldn't be that apparent. At a height of 135cm he could theoretically lengthen both Tibias and femurs and achieve a height of at least 150cm, making him taller than Danny DeVito.
If anyone is interested, some Hollywood leading actors arranged by height.
