Five nine is average height for an Aussie male, and slightly below average for a white American male.
According to Wikipedia.
Incidentally, if you start typing "average caucasian" into Google, the first suggestion, before height, is "average caucasian penile length".
There's a thought, maybe Gibson's got a stubby.
Yes, 5'9" is neither tall nor short. You don't have to be one or the other!

You're a short people apologist. A shortologist!
Well, there was this perfectly ordinary heighted man on TV the other day, who actually had surgery on his legs to make him an inch or two taller. And it was because of OTHER MEN making him feel like a freaky shortarse just because he wasn't 6' tall.
It's stupid.

That's terrible. Suicide's much cheaper.
MEN ARE HORRIBLE.
And they say women are the bitchy ones. Pah.

They are though!

Let's not forget that, no matter how vile Gibson may be, his missus is the one who's recorded his drunken rants and released them to the media, possibly ending his career and costing the man tens of millions of dollars in future income.
I'd say that qualifies as *quite* bitchy.

And the worst thing is, as a good catholic, he can't even top himself!

Absolutely!
And that bitch Samantha Stobbart. Making her poor boyfriend so angry he ended up on a shooting spree! Cow.
(I thought they were saying it was some third party that taped it? Not that I've been following the story mega closely, it might have changed.)

At least he had the courtesy to merely maim her.

Judging from her caginess, and the way she leads him to fess up to giving her a smack, I'd say she was fully aware the tape was running.

If she was on the receiving end of physical violence and death threats, then her actions in making a recording and releasing it were just self defence - and a good strategy to get custody of their kid. Mel shouldn't drink if it makes him angry. By comparison, David Hasselhoff lying on the floor drunk, trying to eat a Wendy's burger and telling his daughter to f**k off looks quite a refined gentleman.
Ah. I haven't actually listened to them, just read bits.

Click the YouTube links and listen then. Sure, she leads him to admit to violence, but it starts with Mel telling her to "stay on the phone and don't hang up on me".
I'll just take your word for it. I'm in too good a mood to listen to a drunk old man ranting.
