American comedian and actor, Aziz Ansari is perhaps best known for his role as Tom Haverford on the NBC series Parks and Recreation, and as creator and star of the Netflix series Master of None.
Inside Aziz Ansari's 'Funny' Height
Aziz Ansari has a predilection for being dwarfed by his girlfriends -- which honestly is not so bad. (in fact, many people want to experience that) .
What seems rather surprising is that Aziz has the proportions of a tall person -- along with his long limbs, but still he is in Ariana Grande's words -- fun-sized!
Aziz's height is listed all over the internet at 5'6" (168 cm) -- and for a good reason, it seems. After taking a careful look at him and comparing his height to that of a few other people, we too think that Aziz's real height is within that range.

5'6" or 167.5 cm

Instead of yelling your opinion, or telling people to shut up, or engaging in this clickbait-internet culture, have a dialogue with someone and ask people questions and listen to what they have to say.
What he fears.
Others fear what the morrow may bring. I am afraid of what happened yesterday.
On his failed pick-up strategy.
This is one of my favorite pick-up strategies: I'm constantly giving women my keys. So far, none of them have shown up. Matter of time. And I've been robbed twice.
Being confident as a comedian.
