I've looked online for about 10 minutes and figured someone here would know the answer.
Just how short is this guy?

This is purely out of curiosity, given all the media puns about his stature.
 
Turdy tree inches.* :p

* Apologies to Ms White and Alan's six co workers for a completely inappropriate and heightest comment. Totally unnecessary, bigoted and appalling.
 
It is time for the moderator to step in and stop this personal attack. Debate the topic fair enough but leave the individual's physical characteristics out of the discussion.

Agreed. I sometimes realise just how racist Australia actually is. If this guy was an Aussie then this whole forum would be moaning about the Qantas Management Team as opposed to Alan Joyce.

Enough of the personal attacks.

Personal attack? Debate the topic?

The OP was asking how short is Alan Joyce? Is this any different to asking how tall is Alan Joyce?

Yes, one question is perceived as being more "politically incorrect" than the other, but can it be considered a 'personal attack'? How the heck do you debate someones height?

FFS! He's either a particular height or he's not.

FYI; I'm 183cm, and I'm not embarrassed to admit it! Simple statement of fact. (and Spruce, weight didn't come into the question!)
 
I can't see how this is any problem. He's asking specifically due to the media circus created around it. It doesn't necessarily mean the OP's going to use it to write a string of "dance on a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow for some Guinness little leprechaun!" jokes.

Agreed, it should play no part in the argument but I can understand the curiousity given what the media's done with it.

Can I add: Racist?! How does height have anything to do with race? Seriously get a grip on reality. People of various heights can come from various races.

the topic is an individual's physical characteristics

I tried searching, but funnily enough this thread is already indexed by Google.

Perhaps Red Roo can answer this one and put it to rest, as it’s just a simple question that they might have better access to?

Seeing him on TV I’d guess around 5’8".

Is that 58" or 5 ft 8" ? ( 58 is very small ;) )
I think he is around 5ft 6 - 5ft 7 myself ( from TV as I haven't yet had time to fit him into my schedule :p )
 
Having met Alan Joyce previously, I'd say he's around 5'8 (I'm close to 6'4")

*edit*

Fortunately for me, the picture of Alan Joyce and I that used to be floating around does not seem to be online anymore. This would have provided a good height comparison.

It's really impossible to tell from those photos. Sylvester Stallone is known to wear built-up shoes, so he always looks taller. Not to say that Alan Joyce does this but it's diffficult to estimate his height just from those photos.
 
This photo helps......perhaps *

*The poster would like to comment that he has in fact been taken over by an alter ego that has found the need to find "humour" in the shortfalls of others and is absolutely appalled that his split personality has posted this bigoted and ignorant attempt to extract humour from a small but upsetting subject.
