Wealth is not about having a lot of money; it's about having a lot of options.
Great comedian and actor, Chris Rock is known for many things -- his height is not one them (nor is his altercation with Will Smith).
There is something funny about Chris Rock's height -- he looks kind of short... until he stands with other people -- then he seems to hold his own pretty well.
But perhaps Chris' height is very close to the average height of men in the United States because IMDb lists it as 5'10" and Chris appears more or less as tall (which is not the case always).
After taking a careful look at him and comparing his height to that of people like Tom Cruise, (5'7¾") Jamie Foxx (5'9½"), Adam Sandler (5'10"), Brad Pitt (5'11"), etc, we think Chris is 5'10" tall all right.
The real height of Chris Rock is
5'10" or 178 cm

Chris Rock is a comedian, so naturally, his quotes are of pure gold:
Chris Rock on eating good food.
Most people don't realize this, but you can eat organic, all-natural, gluten-free food without telling everyone around you.
Chris Rock helping yourself.
I used to have horrible cars that would always end up broken down on the highway. When I tried to flag someone down, nobody stopped. But if I pushed my own car, other drivers would get out and push with me. If you want help, help yourself - people like to see that.
Chris Rock on being offended.
You can only offend me if you mean something to me.
Chris Rock on how long life is.
You know, some people say life is short and that you could get hit by a bus at any moment and that you have to live each day like it's your last. Bullshit. Life is long. You're probably not gonna get hit by a bus. And you're gonna have to live with the choices you make for the next fifty years.
Chris Rock on men.
Men do not settle down. Men surrender.
Chris Rock on women.
Only a woman can make you feel wrong for doing something right.
Chris Rock on trying to impress someone.
Only dumb people try to impress smart people. Smart people just do what they do.
Chris Rock on meeting someone for the first time.
When you meet somebody for the first time, you're not meeting them. You're meeting their representative.
Chris Rock on lies.
Men lie the most, and women tell the biggest lies... a man's lie is, "I'm at Tony's house, I was at Kenny's house!" A woman's lie is like, "It's your baby!"
Chris Rock on maths.
There's math, and everything else is debatable!
Chris Rock on winning a fight against a woman.
You cannot win in a fight against women, cause men have a need to make sense.
Chris Rock on humor in marriage.
A sense of humor is great - it goes a long, long way in a marriage.
Chris Rock on a messed-up world.
You know the world is messed up when the tallest man in the NBA is Chinese, the best golfer is black, and the best rapper is white.
Chris Rock on being with your children.
When I hear people talk about juggling or the sacrifices they make for their children, I look at them like they're crazy because sacrifice infers that there was something better to do than the thing - than being with your children.
Chris Rock on babies.
Babies don't know who's rich and who's poor. You love 'em and they're happy.
Chris Rock on your company.
I say everything's about the company. A gourmet meal with an asshole is a horrible meal. A hot dog with an interesting person is an amazing meal.
Chris Rock on smart work.
If your work is so smart that only smart people get it, it's not that smart.
Chris Rock on a woman's needs.
There are only three things women need in life: food, water, and compliments.
Chris Rock on gun control.
Gun control? We need bullet control! I think every bullet should cost 5,000 dollars. Because if a bullet cost five thousand dollars, we wouldn't have any innocent bystanders.
Chris Rock on his childhood ambition.
I love what's happened to me, but when I was a kid, I wanted to be the president of the United States.
