Daniel Radcliffe has admitted that he used to be quite self-conscious about his height, but he's now come to accept it as a part of who he is. In an interview with Men's Health, Radcliffe said: I was always the shortest person in my year at school. I remember being 13 and looking around thinking everyone had shot up and I was still stuck at 5'4. It sounds ridiculous now, because 5'4 is average height for a man, but when you're 13 it feels like you're a hobbit.
Radcliffe went on to say that he eventually realized that there are benefits to being shorter than average. It makes you tougher, he said. You have to fight harder for things. And once you stop seeing it as a disadvantage, it becomes an advantage.
So there you have it! Daniel Radcliffe doesn't let his height hold him back - in fact, he's learned to use it to his advantage.
