Because of that album cover (and a couple of others) I always thought Garfunkel was like 6'3" or something, but he's 5'9"! Simon really is that short. It was surreal like visiting your childhoood house and being perplexed at how small the kitchen is.

Yeah, one thing Penn Jilette loves to point out is that Teller is actually the exact same height as Art Garfunkel, just they're both known for standing next to people at opposite extremes.

Penn and Teller stood next to each other. Teller, a man of around average height, looks tiny next to the massive Penn Simon and Garfunkel performing. Art Garfunkel, also of average height, looks freakishly tall when stood next to tiny Paul Simon
