Zac Efron and 4 other shockingly short male actors

 The camera adds 10 pounds, and maybe a few inches too. While we  firmly believe that great men come in all sizes (and big things often  come in small packages), it's interesting to find out how tall some of  our favorite male stars are IRL. And as these GIFs prove: Just because you're short, doesn't mean you can't be sexy and oh-so-hot. 

1. Tom Cruise: 5'7''

 Arguably the easiest target of ridicule in the Hollywood height community,Cruise  has garnered a lot of taunting over the years because of his shorter  stature. He's mostly known for playing tough guys and action heroes, and  our perception of a guy like that is he should be an enormously tall  man. It's no matter to Cruise. He still gets a bighearted heaping of  help in elevation everywhere, from his Mission: Impossible films to his red carpet premieres. 

 

2. Daniel Radcliffe: 5'5"

 He's the "Boy Who Lived." Daniel can be as short as he wants to be. The pint-size Brit we all grew up  watching didn't really grow up. He's been rubbing elbows of Hollywood's  elite with his shoulders for a long time, and it looks like things  aren't going to change. Oh, well, he still defeated Voldemort to save  Muggle-kind. 

 

3. Bruno Mars: 5'5"

 Always a big presence on stage and off, Mars' shorter stature could explain his sky-high hairdos and larger-than-life voice 

 

4. Usher: 5'7"

 Now this one may be a shocker since so many of us have watched the  R&B singer grow up right before our eyes, but yes, Usher is among  some of the shorter men in Hollywood. And like so many of our favorite  leading men, Usher doesn't have any problem with dating taller women,  including ex-wife Tameka Foster. 

Zac Efron: 5'8"

 Sure, we always thought the former Troy Bolton would grow up into a tall, dark and handsome fella. But ZAC EFRON's muscles make up for the lack of height.
