Could seem taller at times due to his very thin frame and angular facial features. Reminds me of Michael Gwynn at times.

For some reason or other, John looks as though he's just seen a ghost! Perhaps this is a scene from one of his films; I noticed that he starred in both a Dracula and a Frankenstein film. Say no more....🤯
Four of John's five sons became actors. Their names are as follows: David, Keith, Robert, Bruce and Christopher.
6ft 😄👌
RIP John 🕯️💐

Per the Warren Baxter page, Knowitall thought Carradine was 5'11" in his youth. However, I don't think under six feet fits Carradine next to Henry Fonda though in Grapes of Wrath, he really looks an inch or bit less different. I bet young Carradine and Benedict Cumberbatch would be very similar height and proportions standing next to each other.

Yeah, no way he was 178 cm peak. This is the photo I found, he does look 178 cm there but he lost a lost a good deal of height, I think even by the 1950s Carradine was starting to show a curved spine.

He was very thin so he gave the impression of being taller than what he really was. Frank2 aka Knowitall said he was shorter than 1`83. He even said Carradine was 1`78. I think anything under 1´80 for Carradine doesn´t make sense.
There are pics of him next to his son Keith who was at least 1`85 and he doesn´t look much shorter. And he looks old in those pics so he had probably lost some height by then

Yeah, thanks! Like I said on the request page, this is a guy due to his long neck and build suggests a taller guy, you could see he's shorter by around an inch than Henry Fonda & Bela Lugosi and a couple under Lon Chaney Jr.
