How about 5’10.5” peak, Rob?
He could often give a 5’11” Illusion on film.

Editor RobThere is an argument for stronger 5ft 10 range peak.

Rob, did Lambert look under 5’10” the time you met him in 2011?
Similar height to very worthy add Jean-Claude Brialy. My mind is made up for 5’10.25” peak for the two of them.

Editor RobI think he wasn't far off 5ft 10 but since meeting him lost a fraction.

Looks close enough to 5-10.5 in early years. Never looked a short guy.

Nice picture!
I watched about 45 minutes of Chris's 'Highlander' yesterday, mainly to listen to the Queen soundtrack, but there were too many battle scenes for my liking, so I turned over to the Medium omnibus.
Christopher looked around the 5ft10 mark back then, and I'll cast half-an-inch off for today's height. One day I might watch the film in its entirety. I like Clancy Brown, and Christopher with his long hair! (Ditto in the case of Clancy).
The film starts when Henry VIII was on the English throne, in the 1530s, though, of course, we didn't unite with Scotland until 1603, when the Stuarts took over from the Tudors, Elizabeth I leaving no heirs, so we settled for James VI of Scotland, who became James I of England. 🤴

Interestingly, there was another Christopher Lambert in showbusiness, otherwise known as Kit Lambert. He lived for just 45 years, dying a month short of his 46tb Birthday. He managed bands like The Who, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Fairport Convention and many more.
Christopher Lambert, the actor, gets 5ft10.25 peak and 5ft9.5 for today's height.

Its sad to see so many hate against Lambert because he has a longface. If you watch films from the 80’s-early 1990’s, most male leads have a long face. The difference is that in the 1980’s-early ‘90’s they would hire actors based on range of talent instead of just looks alone. If you are just looking for looks instead of talent you can watch almost any film made since 1998. Actors from the 80’s-early ‘90’s with long faces: Mickey Rourke, Kevin Costner, Richard Gere, Eric Roberts, Dolph Lundgren, Nic Cage, Timothy Dalton, and Clint Eastwood. Getting back on topic, I had no idea that Lambert was almost 5’9. But then again, I don’t really care because he’s a great actor and I enjoy watching both Highlander and Fortress

Rob, since you saw him recently close again and you said he can still be close to 5'10" then peak height 5'10.25" and today 5'9.75" would not be a better list for him?

As with Tyson and Perrineau, I think 179 cm seems to be debatable for him, but I think that the usual 5'10" is not enough for his peak height. Rob, you said all three men have a chance for a little over 5'10" (Lambert, Tyson and Perrineau). Will you now give Lambert an upgrade to 5'10.25"?

Rob, who do you think has the best chance in young ages to reach a strong range of 5'10" (5'10.25")? Harold Perrineau, Christopher Lambert or Mike Tyson? Personally, I would give each of them three chances for it. What's your opinion, Rob?

I feel if he straightened up, he could clear 177cm, so 5'9.75 is probably closer to the truth. Which means his peak height could have been 5'10.5.

Christopher Lambert is now doing conventions and charging people to get their picture taken with him!? Talk about a movie career going down! But I would agree with 5'10" or 5'10.5" in the above picture. In all fairness, Christopher looked about 6'0" tall in almost all of his movies!

If he's 5'10, then he's the tallest 5'10 I've ever seen, he looks easily tallish on screen.
That's to show also how tall is and looks a true 5'10 guy, that's already a solid above average height.
If he's 5'10, then he's the tallest 5'10 I've ever seen, he looks easily tallish on screen.

Seems to be losing quite a bit of height in the pic, to not count the shoe disadvantage.
5'11 peak is possible for me, what do you think Rob?
Editor Rob
he looked shorter than vernon wells in fortress, so was peak height then, I doubt he has lost more than a small amount by age 54.
the guy 5 comments saw him at the same event and thought Lambert looked 5ft 8 to him...
not a chance from what I saw that Lambert's over 5ft 10 in 2011.

Editor Rob I met adrian last year and thought he was near enought a six footer.
I met, like I see the last fella aswell, christoph at the london film con. I don't agree with him being five eight as the man was taller than me. I can see how he probably thought at five ten lambert could appear like he was 2 inch shorter as christoph isn't a guy who stands like stallone ;)
I now understand why vernon wells was taller than lambert in fortress

He starred in a movie called Resurrection from 1999, with him and 5'8" listed Leland Orser as the two leads playing detectives. Lambert looked about 2-2.5 inches taller than him throughout the movie, so 5'10"ish is about right for him assuming Orser is really 5'8".

Editor Rob he looks shorter than adrian paul and with vernon wells in that sci fi movie he didn't look taller than vernon either, so I'm not sure how 185cm came about in the first place...

5-7, 5-9, 5-11 or 6 feet. Whatever. Choosing this guy to play Tarzan in 1984 had to be among the very worst choices in the history of the tarzan movies. There may be 2 or 3 who were worse, but not by much. To this day, I still can hardly believe it happened.

Stood right in front of him, shaking hands and he was slightly taller than I am, with his eyes looking slightly down at me, and I am only 5'7". This was in the middle to late 90's on a set at Marine World working on a french film. I have to guess 5'9" for him. As a former wrestler (REAL wrestler), I can size up somebody very well, including their weight. Mr. Lambert was quite light in frame, maybe only about 165 pounds at the time but not unhealthy or anything like that.

I think you are right Mark K..in the movie Highlander 2 there's a scene where he stands beside Sean connery, and Lamberts forehead is only in height of Connery's mouth, so 5 foot 9 the most.

I dunno, judging from the Freddie Mercury photos and dmeyer's statements, Lambert seems he could be anywhere from 179cm - 181cm. I think he might be 5'10.75" (bang on at 180cm). Although the real deal breaker is to get someone to actually meet the guy in person. Because, as it is, he seems like another one of those Brad Pitt types whose EXACT height is a huge question mark.

If Lambert is only 5'9 to 5'10 himself, that would make Freddie no more than 5'7, which is ridicolous

Im 5 foot 7 id say he is around my height as crazy as it may sounds if you have seen him next to sean connery who is only 6 foot 1 he looks very short compared to him In Highlander 2 the quickening in Highlander 1 he looks a tad bit shorter but in part two he looks a lot shorter it could just be the camera angle but if youve seen chris next to most the other guys in the movies hes always the shortest one he was definately shorter than adrian paul in endgame who im sure is at least 6 foot. And he was shorter than Bruce Payne. My Rough estimate is that he could be between 5'7" and 5'9" max 5'10" but no more

Nah, I doubt he's shorter than 5'10, it's pretty obvious to me. Keep in mind the woman was most likely wearing heels in Lambert's pic. While he doesn't look 6' in Highlander, especially next to Connery, he just doesn't have the build of a guy who is any shorter than 5'10. Yeah, it sounds a little silly to estimate someone based on their 'build', but it's actually a good way of determining (usually). I'd say he's probably a good 5'10 guy who easily pushes towards 5'11. If he's 5'10, I wouldn't be suprised; if he really is 5'11, I wouldn't be suprised either. So, 5'10.5 seems reasonable, unless proven otherwise (be it taller or shorter).

Considering the fact she looks dressed up, she may be wearing heels in the Lambert pic. So, that's something to consider.

You know, normally I disagree when I see a 6' guy downgraded on here, but I really think is correct. I just watched Highlander last night and there's a part in the movie where Connery and Lambert are barefoot on a beach. Lambert does not look 6' next to Connery in the scene. I think he might have been 181 or possibly close to 5'11.5. Normally when guys are in that range they get easily rounded up to 6'.
Then again, I've never meant the guy, so I wouldn't know.

When he first hit it big with Tarzan, he was listed at 5-9. Somehow, he "grew" when he got to Highlander. He did a movie with Mario Van Peebles, and they were about the same height, which is probably why they were cast together. I think Mr. Lambert is closer to 5-9.
