Although a double needed to be used to make Rhys-Davies look much smaller than his shorter co-stars Viggo Mortensen and Orlando Bloom, his height was exactly the right proportions to those of his hobbit co-stars and no body doubles were used in their shots together. The hobbits are supposed to average about 3' 6" (2 feet shorter than the actors who played them) and Gimli, at just over 4 feet tall, is about 2 feet shorter than the real Rhys-Davies.

Middle Earth has giants. They are discussed in the hobbit but I don't think they're mentioned at all during LOTR. It's never said exactly how big they are. However, Ents (the tree things) are stated as being 14-16 feet tall and that trolls are copies of ents just as orcs are copies of elves. I think Dragons have it in the potterverse. But I'm not certain. Are we talking only height or are we including overall size? If it's only height, it might be really close between giants and dragons. If it is overall size, I'd say that dragons have it.

I'd guess around 4-feet
