14. Luke Evans Isn't That Short

At one point, we get to see files on screen explaining how Cipher has been involved - behind the scenes - in two other earlier Fast & Furious movies. She was behind Owen Shaw's attempts to build dangerous high-tech weaponry and Jakande was working for her while attempting to get his hands on God's Eye.

This is all fine, but what isn't is the fact that the mugshot screen showing Owen Shaw has his height listed as 5'8. A detail most would miss, except in the picture he's clearly standing at around 183cms.

As any mathematician will tell you, 183cm is not 5'8, and Luke Evans also isn't 5'8. He's correctly shown just above the 180 line on his mug-shot and is actually 6 foot tall in real life. Why did they have to make him appear so small?
