Jacob revealed he’s actually 6ft 5inches tall!
The Euphoria star confessed that, in the past, he was insecure about his height and was told he’d be “too tall” to land acting roles.
He told GQ: “I used to be so sensitive about my height. Because when I first started acting, literally everybody would tell me that I'd never work because they wouldn't be able to partner me with people, and they wouldn't lift the camera up high enough. I basically got told that I was too tall to be an actor. So to all of those people... nice.”

Jacob then explained that he used to tell people he was actually two inches shorter, adding: “So yeah I was super nervous about telling people my height. I used to try and pass for 6'2" or 6'3" but I'm actually 6'5".
“So online there's all different kinds of numbers. I've just sold myself out. Just because people hear 6'5" and they go like 'you're a giant' but if I stand next to someone who's 6'3", the difference is tiny."
We don’t think we’d ever complain about your height, Jacob!
