Open to 6ft2 and change peak - looked strikingly tall in the 60's-70's.

He looked a solid, classic 6ft 2in next to 6ft Andrew Keir in the Hammer classic 'Quatermass and the Pitt'.

At 55-56 minutes Glover gives off a tall 6'3" vibe I think walking with Lelia Goldoni. Click Here Christopher Lee was also in the film but never stood close with him to gauge the diff.

It's possible Connery lost a fraction by Last Crusade but I think him and Glover were fairly evenly matched.
Both solid 6ft2 men in their prime

i wonder what height he is now if he was 183 in 2010. Beside ford and Connery he cant have been under 6+2 peak. In the beginning of indy 3 he did look easily 4cm taller than ford. I think he looked 183 in 2010 but was taller if he got measured, maybe 184. Today he cant be more than at best 182 if he was that height 2010.

Definetly 6'2 peak height. He looked a solid inch and half taller than Harisson Ford in Indianna Jones. In this picture from 2010, he still looks close to 6'1 considering the slight slouching.

Glover was certainly nothing under 6’2”, in his prime. In fact, I’d vote 6’2.25” for Glover’s peak height and if he had claimed 6’2.5”, I would have believed it. Glover does seem at least one taller than Roger Moore in For Your Eyes Only and an episode of The Saint.

More chance over slightly over 6'2'' than under during his prime I would've thought.

It turns out he also appeared in an episode of The Saint. It’d be interesting to see how he looked next to Moore then. Oddly enough Shirley Eatin from Goldfinger (gold painted woman) is also in it!

He could have been close to 6'3 at peak and downgraded himself on his CV in order to get more roles, which is what a lot of character actors do. He was clearly taller than both Ford and Connery in Indiana Jones and at least an inch taller than Roger Moore in For Your Eyes Only.

Good analysis, Berta. I think they were close at peak l but like you said different frames. Glover was rangy while Connery was broad and muscular. I still think Sean might have had the edge peak
Both no less than 188cm peak

skinny guy that could look very legit 188 up to 189 but he was probably as the listing 188 flat. BUT remeber he had 4 cm on ford easy in the scene in the beginning. so there is pretty high evidence of max 184 ford.Also sean connery didnt look in the 187-188 range in the movie so he was probably never taller than 188. Connery could look close to 189 when he was younger but have pretty good muscle development even at old age and big bones so i dont think he really had lost any height at 59. its a good movies to judge height from.

For whatever reason with the very small amount of Screen time this guy had im Empire Strikes back, I remembered him well. I think he pretty much was robotic and down to the point in the role as General Veers. Came off as Very Calculating and Cold. I liked him in other roles as well underrated actor.
AS Far as his height, lets see he only looks 5'11.5 with Rob , no more. He was also 75 years old at the time of this picture, so he was likely around a good 1" to 1-1/2" taller in his prime which would mean he was around 6'1 in his prime, but I will admit he looked taller than this usually. Maybe he shrunk more than most men, but he certainly is not over 5'11.5 with Rob.

he have probably lost a little more height since this. if he was 183 back then ( i personally think he could have been 184 when measured) then he is probably down to 182 today. At his peak he cant have been shorter than 188 beside harrison ford 184. It was maybe 4-4,5 cm beetween them if i remember right.i think this guy could have been 188-188,5 and ford as i said before was about 183,7-184

He actually looked taller than Connery in Indiana Jones. He also looked taller than Moore in For Your Eyes Only and in an episode of The Saint. He was not much shorter than Darth Vader in The Empire Strikes Back. I would say his peak was closer to 6'2.5, possibly even 6'3. Sometimes character actors downplay their height in order to get jobs with leading men so he could have rounded down on his CV.

Great actor in villain roles. In my opinion he was taller than Ford at movie Indy III. Yo can see this when Indy and Walter Donovan( caracter of Julian) drink champagne together.
Glover was 187- 188cm in the last crusade, is possible..
Harrison 183cm maybe
Connery around 187cm .
Not more not less
Now, Glover is a old man, he lost height, I think he is 181-183cm today.

no doubt he's a real 6'0" with rob, perhaps witha good posture he could brush 6'0.25"...however i'm a bit skeptical about his "primitive height"...
loosing 2" is a very large amount and Julian doesn't seems to me the person who had serial back problems...i think he was between 6'1"-6'2", like 6'1.25" or 6'1.5" on a good day.

@Arch: Yeah, I thought 188-189cm at least with Ford but once Connery came into the picture my impression swiftly shifted toward 186-187cm range. Remember, the guy was well into his 50s by that point.
His height is a mystery. In For Your Eyes Only he could appear up to 2in taller than Roger Moore in some scenes and in others, not a hair taller. But I will say that in The Empire Strikes Back he looked near 6ft3 if David Prowse was 6ft6.

187.5cm - 188cm (6ft1.75in - 6ft2in) at his peak. He wore lifts in For Your Eyes Only to look more imposing as a Bond villian, I suspect. Same with The Last Crusade. He probably was never that much taller than Roger Moore and Harrison Ford.

You can see the standard height loss in the upper spine/neck area. When the head naturally starts tilting forward, there is a curve/hunch, which is height loss. If he was able to straighten that upper spine/neck out, he would easily regain over an inch in height. Same thing has happened to George Romero.

Yeah the scene in For Your Eyes only where he stands up to shake Moore's hand and ignores Ferrara by his proportions definitely looked close to 6'3", Just his legs and torso screamed 6'3". Maybe 6'2" peak then but he could look close close to 6'3".

6'1.5" or 6'2" at his peak sounds correct. I think he looked slightly shorter than Connery in The Last Crusade. As for people commenting that he looked close to 6'3" or even 6'4", I think it was because of his posture and slim frame. I think he had the best posture you can possibly get during his prime years.

He's slouching here and still doing alright. Could be 6' 1" really. 1 inch height loss sounds more pheasible than 2". That's the thing with tall celebrities; they slouch in pics with shorter guys (well Rob is low-average really, not short. Glenn was short for sure.)

I think is necessary to do a reasoning of this kind:
In the Last Crusade is clearly Glover was about 1.5 in (3,8-4 cm) taller than Harrison Ford. You can see the diffrence when they speak inside Petra, at the end, before he shoots to Henry Jones Sr...So If Ford (in the 1989 he was 47) was 1.84-1.85 m out of bed and during the scene 1.82-1.83 m, here he was 1.86 m. So, according with Rob, his peak height when he was young, out of bed, was 6'2" (1.88 m)! Now he's clearly around 6' (1.83 m). Rob's diagnosis is fine for me!

Glover wore lifts in The Last Crusade to appear taller than Connery. Seeming he palyed the bad guy Spielberg or however directed the film probably thought that in order to make Glovers character appear more imposing he wear lifts. But in reality Glover and Connery are quite similiar in height. But Connery I think is the taller of the two by about 1cm. both men have lost barely any height. Both tall, well-built guys undoubtedly but Connery is taller. I'd say Connery is 6ft2(6ft2.5 prime) and Glover 6ft1.5 (6ft2 prime). Rob that's my opinion.

OK perhaps not, but I thought he still looked 6'3" peak.

But if you;ve met the guy and tell me he isn't I believe you.

6ft3.5?! Hardly. I'm almost 6ft3 myself and I had this man by about one inch. I've also met Connery briefly and he was closer to my height. They must have done something with the camera angles in The Last Crusade to make Glover's character more imposing. In Reality Connery is taller than Glover. In For Your Eyes only Glover looked 0.5-1 inch taller than Moore. He might've been a little more than 6ft2 in his prime but certainly not 6ft3 or 6ft3.5! Glover is 6ft1.5-6ft2 max today and Connery is 6ft2 max today.

Ray, camera angles can be deceiving. Having met Connery and Glover I don't agree with those estimates. Harrison Ford should be 5ft11.75. He practicly is 6ft these days. Glover is 6ft1.25 and Connery is 6ft1.75 as of today. When I met Connery he was only half an inch shorter than me. I'm 6ft2.75. Glover didn't even look 6ft2 when I met him.

I actually think its more accurate to estimate someone's height from seeing a number of photos and videos of them. If you're standing next to someone trying to gauge their height its not possible to be accurate to within 0.5 - 1 inch. As for Glover, he was visibly taller than Connery in The Last Crusade and had about 2 or so inches on Ford. My height estimates for them in this film (not peak heights) is Glover 6'1.5 - 2", Connery 6'1" and Ford 5'11.5"

So you met Glover when he was 61 and Connery when he was 68, both ages in which they most likely would have lost a bit of height. If Connery was around 6ft2 in 1998, he would have been easily this in 1989, and the same for Glover! I'll take your word for it that Connery and Glover were 6ft2.25 and 6ft1.75 respectively, basing it off of your daytime height of approx. 6ft2.75.
Ford I still say was no more than 6ft in Last Crusade, and in my opinion more like 5ft11.75 with about an inch or so for his Indy boots. So 6ft0.75 in the film for him, Connery 6ft2.75 in his flatter soled dress shoes, and Glover 6ft2.5-6ft2.75 in his dress shoes and desert boots.
I still think Connery looked shorter in scenes with Glover by about an inch though, so I don't know what to make of that?

Hugh, I'm curious when did you meet them?
As for Glover, if you saw him at only 6ft1.5-6ft2 tops, there's no way Ford was near 6ft2 in his youth or 6ft1 for that matter, when he stood a good 2-3 inches shorter than Glover in Last Crusade. If Glover was 6ft1.5, Ford would've been 5ft10.5-5ft11.5 in LC. Or if Glover was 6ft2, Ford would've been 5ft11-6ft.
Once again this reinforces to me that Ford was most likely around 6ft, maybe a bit more in his youth, and now in the 5ft11 plus range.

How tall are you Hugh?
I didn't realize you met them, and yes my observations are only from watching the films. My sister met Ford back in the early 90's, and she said he was around my height, and I'm 5ft11.75 straight out of bed. I still can't see Ford at much more than 6ft-6ft0.5 tops in his youth, and around 5ft11-5ft11.5 now. There's been tons of 5ft11-6ft sightings of Ford, maybe more than the 6ft1 ones.
In my opinion Ford easily looked 1.5 inches shorter than Connery in Last Crusade, and I strongly doubt Connery was a full 6ft2.5 then at 59. I still think he was 6ft2 tops in his youth, and by LC no more than 6ft1.25.

I too just watched the film a few weeks back for the 100th time, and all my observations were the same!
Hugh, first of all watch the film again and freeze frame the scene when Indy swings into the room at the Austrian castle where his dad is being held, and then the Nazis burst in a minute later. Both Ford and Connery stand side by side, and it's very clearly seen that Ford is at a minimum 1.5 inches shorter than Connery.
Now watch the scene when Indy is brought to meet Donovan, and Glover and Ford square off, with Glover looking a good 2-3 inches taller.
Lastly watch the scenes in the Austrian castle where Ford and Connery are brought before Glover, as well as at the very end scene in the temple when Donovan shoots Henry Sr.. Glover is taller than Connery by a good 1-1.5 inches in both these scenes.
I still say Ford was no more than 5ft11.5, Connery 6ft1, and Glover 6ft2 maybe a tad bit more. Of course you could also say Ford was 6ft, Connery 6ft1.5, and Glover 6ft3. Take your pick!

Ray, Connery in his youth was no less than 6ft2. Glover and Connery are the same height. Connery in my opinion was 6ft2.75 (190cm) in his youth. Sure he might have lost a bit of height by that time. In fact now that I think of it, I vaguely remember Connery and Glover standing right beside each other and Connery looking marginally taller.

I have to agree with Ed. Connery was definately shorter than Glover by more than an inch. Ford, in some scenes looked about an inch shorter and then near the end about 3 inches shorter. I think Ford is about 5'11 - 6'. Connery looked about 6'1". He was in his late 50's then so it''s qute possibly he had lost a cm from 6'1.5" in his youth....which sounds abot right.

Glover is definately not taller than Sean Connery. Both men are 6ft2. Ford is 6ft1 or a hair over. Connery I think was pushing 6ft3 at his peak.

Empire Strikes back was on last week, and I was surprised how close to Vader Glover really was, not much shorter.

Glover is taller than this I think. More like 6'3". He is also in Empire Strikes Back and has scenes with Darth Vader and is not looking up much to see him eye to eye. I believe David Prowse is 6'5" or 6'6"

Well something is up here because after watching Last Crusade again recently Glover has between 2-3 inches on Ford easy, and a good 1.5 on Connery. I paused and rewatched the scene from the pic above and several other scenes as well with just Connery and Ford, and if he is 6ft2 Ford would be between 5ft11-6ft to his 6ft2 and Connery 6ft0.5-6ft1.5. The problem here lies in the consistent claim of Ford being 6ft1 and Connery near 6ft2, this doesn't work if Glover is 6ft2 as well.

Rob I don't know about that pic, could be a strange angle. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure in the movie during the scene where Indy is brought to meet Glover's character(Donovan), he looks at least 2 plus inches taller than Ford, maybe more. I was always under the impression he was close to 6ft3, again I could be wrong, I need to watch Last Crusade again, it's been a while.
