"Follow what your head is telling you and work hard. That's the big secret."
~ Joel McHale
Actor, comedian, and television host, Joel McHale is perhaps best known for hosting "The Soup" and his role as Jeff Winger on "Community". He has also appeared in the movies such as "Spy Kids: All the Time in the World", "Happily", and "Ted".
For some reason, you never think of Joel McHale as a tall guy until you suddenly realize that he is kind of tall -- something about his built perhaps? Or perhaps because he looks somewhat like Bill Burr? Though admittedly a younger, taller, and hairier version of Bill Burr.
Joel has claimed to be 6'4" tall, and honestly, he looks close to it, especially if you compare his height to that of other tall people like Eric Bana (6'2¾"), Conan O'Brien (6'4"), Vince Vaughn (6'5"), etc. Joel surely looks nearly a foot taller than 5-feet-4 inches tall Ken Jeong.
