Hey, how tall do you think each of the characters are? I have always wondered about this. I know Aladdin and Jasmine must a little shorter because people in the middle east are shorter than some of us. I would say Aladdin is probably 5'6 and Jasmine 5'3. I dunno, what do you all think?

According to this pic, (I think it's from The Art of Hercules) Aladdin's about 5'7", so you're pretty close! From that you could figure out the other characters' heights; it's something I keep meaning to do...

I think it's not so much about being Arabs as it is about living a long time ago when nutrition wasn't as good. 5'7" was tall back then. Very Happy

Well, whenever I go to Disneyland, Aladdin's around my height, 5'10" (me next to Aladdin for comparison). Jasmine is 5'3"-5'4" ish. That's in the parks... unfortunately I don't have the official face character height ranges right offhand.

As Heather mentioned, people in general were shorter in history. I assume they made him a bit taller in the parks to adjust for average male height these days. Smile

Hmm, I am about 5'-5' ½". When I went to Disney World, Jasmine was my height and Aladdin was taller than both of us: ( Aladdin, Me and Jasmine).
Horrible picture quality, but you get the point. So, Jasmine might be 5' and Aladdin is 5'7", but that is just a guess. Hey, I could be the same height as Jasmine. Cool. Cool
