It's funny how similar he is to Travis Fimmel. Both are redhead, big beard, viking-ish role, 5ft 11 3/4 yet dwarfed by many co-stars including a woman

It’s interesting that Game of Thrones decided to use this actor to play Tormund Giantsbane when his book character counterpart was described as “being short, having a broad chest, a massive belly, and a beard as white as snow.” I will say that the TV Show Tormund Giantsbane was 6’0” or maybe a weak 6’0” at the lowest case scenario. In the books, Tormund Giantsbane is probably around 5’3”, but I could see 5’2” or 5’4” being possible height guesses for him in that story too. All we know is Tormund Giantsbane was shorter than Jon Snow was based on how George RR Martin would describe their characters physical appearances. Book Jon Snow must be taller than Kit Harrington is, it’s an interesting contrast.

He's easily 95-97kg (209-214lbs) in photos I've seen of him. He's rarely in t-shirts, but when we wears a suit with an open jacket you can see he's got a bit of a gut. That combined with his broad-shouldered, big-back physique makes 210-215lbs very plausible for him.

I take that back - his inseam is probably around 32 inches. His legs are bulky, so they can appear shorter, but his inseam is likely still roughly 32 inches.
It's quite clear, though, that his legs are shorter than Iain Glen, who is listed at 6'0:

Look at this pic from Fast and Furious next to Kurt Russell (that you listed about 5ft 9):

For me, Kristofer looks here no more than 5'10.5/5'11... (179/180 cm).
What do you think about it Rob ? Personally I would say about 5'11.5 (181.7/181.8 cm) cause he looks taller on other pics and in GoT.

He gives 6'1 impression but probably beacuse he was usaually seen in GoT within short actors, but something aroung 6ft seems legit.

I think he'd measure shorter than someone like Mads Mikkelsen. Hivju seems closer to 182cm than 181cm, but he's probably a weak 182cm.

I wonder how men can grow these type of beards?!? I had a beard a couple of times in my life,I didn't have the desired effect i wanted it to have.I did grow one in my early 20s for a month or so then at a different time in my mid 20s.It was itchy when i grew them and difficult to keep tidy.

Rob, any insight into when beards stop developing or "filling in" for men? Is it typically around the same time as height, or sometime later?

Editor Rob I think some men in early 20's might find that they can grow a better beard in their 30's...
I remember trying to grow a fuller beard around 23-24 and it wasn't as full as it could be in 30's or now in 40's.

Managed to edge out 5ft 11.5 Vin Diesel by a fraction with both wearing black combat boots, would definitely settle on Hivju being a weak six footer but nothing more or less.

He seems to edge out Vin Diesel just by a little in Fate of the Furious. If Kristofer is as listed, then Vin Diesel might need a slight downgrade.

Solid listing, he didn't look a strong 6 footer next to Ciaran Hinds in the Season 3 premiere, but he's able to stand out among his Nights Watch and Wildling costars with his tallish height.

What is odd is that the Tormund character is one of the shorter ones yet they cast a tallish man in the role which he owns admittedly. Same with Jonathan Pryce who is 6' but High Sparrow is little.

This is an interesting listing! We are both from Norway and I met him briefly back in 2009 for a short film production and before Game of Thrones. He actually looked 181-182 range to me, but it could be due to slouch. Anyway slightly below 6 ft could def be correct. I'm 6 ft myself and it's usually easy for me to judge a height when it's so close to my own.

Rob, consider this, he seems at the same height or ever so slightly shorter than Liam Cunningham, who he shares scenes with in the most recent episode, with both of them holding good posture. Also, they both stand next to Ben Crompton who's height is still unknown but both seem to hang above Crompton at the same height.

@Editor Rob: I wouldn't consider 5'11.5. He can probably appear that, but his posture is very loose most of the time. I'm quite certain he would measure nearer 183 than 182 cm after meeting him twice, as well as meeting the guy in the middle in this pic (Jakob Oftebro): Click Here Don't know the footwear situation, but both times I met Kristofer he had quite modest/regular footwear, converse in the summer and a standard yellow timberland boot in the winter, so I wouldn't think of him as a guy to wear overly sizable footwear. Jakob holds a very good posture in person and appeared almost identical to my height, maybe a smidge shorter, so a solid 179 cm is the lowest I'd go for him and quite possibly he would be near his 180 cm claim.

Tom said on 17/Nov/14
Rob did you see the pics with him and bradley. Also are you going to do a video???

Editor Rob yeah he doesn't quite look a 6ft guy with bradley in the couple of photos together. I'm not sure about this 5ft 11.75 video...

Rob I love your videos on youtube. I just saw the tape measure one. Can you make a video on where the point 5 foot 11 .75 is on the tape measure thanks man. And agian love your videos. Or can you get a guy in person that's 5 foot 11.75 or .5 in a video beside you.

Rob would you classify kristofer hivju as a bit guy or no??

Editor Rob with his intensity and big beard/hair, a near 6ft guy like him can definitely look a 'big guy' and intimidating.

Rob has a point. We, a humans, tend to notice those who beat us or whom we deem to be 'superior' to us. It's like a competitive sport. A handful of competing athletes in an entire league will generally only notice and compete against themselves over who is top dog while the rest of the players are just kinda... there, irrelevant. Think of Tom Brady vs Peyton Manning. No one gives a hoot about other quarterbacks when those two are being discussed.

Also rob I'm 5' foot 11. People say a I'm about above average in height but it doesn't seem that why when I go out in public. By the way I'm from Canada

Editor Rob it might not feel that way at times, maybe your brain is recognising/registering more people about your height and taller than it does below your height? So it can feel like 5ft 11 is just average...

Editor Rob for US, overall (not just considering one ethnicity) I don't think it's quite that.

Okay so average for a man is 5 foot 9 in the uk and United States. I leave in canada and I think it's five foot ten here. But that is from a 2010 listening. I feel like people are really tall now a days like 6 foot 1 or 2???? What's your opinion ????

Editor Rob well I watched GOT and then saw him in The Thing and thought, he could be 182-3 range, not over 6ft anyway.

He nearly fooled me for 6'0.5 when I met him in Oslo in the wintertime a few years back, but it was on the snowy streets and he was wearing chunky boots. Met him on flat ground early this year and I thought he looked about 6'0. At times though the way he stands can make him look 5'11 flat, but from meeting him in person I'd say he's pretty near 6'0 - nothing under 5'11.5.

Rob do you think beards make a man look taller?
Editor Rob
Rob do you think beards make a man look taller?
Editor Rob I don't think so, because if there is a bit of depth to it, then the person's head can look longer, so since many people judge on things like chin lengths, it might be a slight disadvantage.
As for beards themselves, I encourage all men to grow one, it's quite natural. Only problem might be your partner might not like kissing you :) In that case...maybe think twice ;)

Okay. So rob to you he looks like a solid 6 feet guy? Also I just saw a pick of hivju with a guy that you have a photo with who is 6 foot 1. And beside him hivju looks actually the same. So is 6 foot 1 possible ?????

Editor Rob I think there is a chance the other guy is between 6ft and 6ft 0.5, but Kris isn't over 6ft, more chance he would be 182 than 184 :)

Rob would 5foot 11 be fare for him. Next to 5 foot 7 kit harrington

Editor Rob as I've said before it is within the zone that is kind of transitioning from upper average to lower end of the tall range.

Just a heads up Rob, if you are going to add pages for other Norwegian actors in the future, it's safe in my opinion to go with their agency listings. From what I can tell, they almost allways seem pretty reliable and accurate.

That's a great beard! I think a beard can add height. If you're already reasonably tall (6ft) with a broad frame.. The beard adds 'roughness'. Makes you indeed seem more like a mountain giant walking the earth :-)

Yeah, Rob, you might want to start a page on how many inches your beard can add to your height...sometimes on the show, Kristofer to me resembles James Cosmo (Ser Mormont).

Good grief, he looks like he's been living in the mountains of northern Norway all of his life and suddenly come out of his primitive background and put on an Armani suit! A beard that long gives the impression of a much larger head and I saw the photo before the height and was expecting to see something like 6'6"-6'8" or something.
