At a meet and greet I gave Mick a hug. I'm 4'9" and I hugged him around the neck and didn't have to reach up more than maybe an inch to get over his shoulders.

Rob, you really should update Mick's current height. Your quote of him being just over 5'3" is from 11 years ago. His disease has progressed immensely since then and he's also around 70 years old today. He looks to be max 5'2" these days.
Also, you should consider adding the lead singer of Great White (Jack Russell). He used to be around 6'0" and is down to about 5'0" today. His entire upper torso has collapsed on him. He's not a well man at all. Still touring though!

Editor RobHe might be 5ft 2 these days. I read something the other day, wasn't about a celebrity, but a guy who went from a height of 6ft 4 to 5ft 7. Unbelievable loss, but that is what spinal-related cancer done to this man.

It's terrifying, so much loss of heights! He has even more lose height than David Prowse, he lost at least 5 and a half inches! When he was young in the 70's and 80's, he looked comfortable over 5'8" but I saw his photos and recordings from 2015 alongside Alice Cooper and Tommy Lee, it really looks disturbing! Rob, how is such a large loss height possible?

There are pictures online from 1981 where Mick was TALLER than Vince Neil and they were wearing the same normal flat shoes. Today, Mick wears THESE boots Click Here and is still several inches shorter than Vince. Imo, he's max 5'2" today. That's at least a 7" height loss. Poor guy.

Ankylosing Spondylitis is one condition that really can seriously effect height, I knew a guy who used to go to cons who had a severe case, the legs of a 5ft 9 man and upper body just collapsed really.

Peak , yea he was near 5'9". Might need to update now though in the last 5 years I reckon he's lost another inch. He wears huge shoes but still looks real short next to the other Motley Guys. More 5'2" range today I reckon.

Mick Mars is unfortunate enough to have ankyalosis spondalitus. This is a probelm in his back and shoulders, wearing down at the bottom of his spine. In the 198Os he was 5ft9" or 5ft10" but since his disease is getting worse his spine has worn down making him 5ft3"

He's tiny and looks a waste. Watch the Kat von D video on youtube of Nikki Sixx getting a tattoo of Mars on his knee. I notice he wears like 4 or 5 inches platform shoes covered by jeans and still looks a tiny man. I'd have guessed without 5'2"- or 5'3"

ankylosing spondylitis effectively collapses your spine and makes it one big bone, so the height loss is probably legit, much more serious than bad posture, your bones actually fuse together, as well as bend.

I am not sure how someone can loose up to 5 inches of their original height from just spinal curvature alone. That must be some pretty bad curvature of the spine because I've never heard of anyone who has lost anymore than 2-3 inches of height from bad posture/spinal curvature.

A lot of people don't like their age printed. Dio denying & being a liar is pretty amazing. He usually is a straight shooter. He was doo-wopping in '58. Mick's spine is so messed up no surgery can correct the stuff totally stuck to his discs. Like a paste. Nobody has pinned Mick's age through yearbooks etc.. You'd think it was easy.

Yeah, it's nothing too bad at all. I recall Ronnie saying something to the effect of "that was what music sounded like at the time and everyone starts somewhere" in an interview. Of course I'm paraphrasing. I think he may be worried about his image in the eyes of metal fans, but as you said everyone knows about those recordings and have for years.

I'm not doubting you Danimal. it just did surprise me that after all of these years he finally admitted to being born in 1942 after he had stated he was born in 1949 for years. On Cortland highschool's website they state he graduated in 1960 and records under the name Ronald Padavona showed he was born in 1942 anyway. Maybe Ronnie was aware of that and decided to just be honest this time because everyone knew it at this point. It was easier to lie about his age when less information was available, or maybe he just doesn't see a point at this time in his life and he figured the debate would finally go away.
Exactly.

Ronnie most likely lied about his age initially because he was much older than pretty much anyone else on the 80's metal scene. It's easier to market a singer in his mid 30's than early to mid 40's. I see nothing wrong with him lying about it initially, age is a trivial thing anyway.

Really Danimal? I'm surprised he admitted it. I guess it was because everyone already knew he was born in 1942. Even as recent as the late 90's he was very emphatic when claiming 1949 as his birth year though. Here is an example
RJD: Well, I was born in '49, and I never told anybody anything other than that. The thing is that I started so young, I think, that I probably flow through a lot of people who are the same age as I am, and have done more than they have, but it's never been a problem for me. You are what you are, you get to be as old as you get to be. It really doesn't matter, but that's me.

In reality though it seems as though Dio is only lying about his age by 7 years while Mick may be lying by 10 years!
Dio no longer lies about his age. He recently admitted to having been born in 1942.

The earliest birth year I've heard claimed for Dio I believe was 1937, but that's BS. I believe he was born in 1942, I think it was confirmed that he graduated highschool in 1960. I heard 1940 a lot as well, one of Ronnie's former bandmates told me 1944, but 1942 is most likely correct. Whatever age Dio is doesn't really matter though, he's still a great singer.

Mick said in the book The Dirt that his condition has made him 3 inches shorter than he was in highschool. I think that sounds more accurate and his terrible posture makes it seem more like 5.

'51 is his listed age. Many people agree he is older. He has a 20 year old grandson!
maybe it's the long dark hair and/or the quality of the photo, but he himself looks as though he could be 20!!!

From 5'8.75 to 5'3.5, how is that possible?? I mean has he even a straight back, glenn?

when your supposedly 10 years older than your bandmates thats already nearing or at 50,to me,thats old.especially since they just signed a 10 year contract.mick will be in his late 60s when they retire.i applaud he can handle it that long.

I too believe that he could have unintentionally overstated his height loss because he looks at least 5

Yeah, poor guy........really sucks to have health issues like that. He still can play the guitar though! Just saw the Crue about 2 weeks ago.

When you have this kind of problem it's hard to say how many inches you can lose. Anyway was he wearing make-up or is it his real skin tone?

I don't think of 57 as really old, especially these days. Mick is in worse shape than a lot of 75 year olds.

i estimated 5-6 in the 90s for him.it does seem extreme,and he looks taller lately.back to 5-8,5-9.but i guess its the footwear.its no surprise.in 1985 he was rocking high heels.im obviously bending.

I agree with Rising...I do believe it's a serious disease, but could he(most likely unintentionally) be exaggerating his height loss?
What I'm trying to say is that he certainly looks as though he could be taller than 5'3.5....would you be so kind as to offer your take, glenn?

Editor Rob I doubt he'd bs about something like that...he does wear very large heels as can be seen here: Mick's Shoes

Poor Mick, ... He is definitely not well, ... and is actually shrinking in height. He is in his early 50's in age.

Boot to boot? That poor guy is a midgit now, that's Madonna's height! 313? Detroit. He's around 60 years old now, was in bands in the 60's and has a 38 year old son. He actually looks better than Vince, Vince is really bloated. He'll do the tour knock down in weight then explode to a barrel. Lee & Sixx just don't age even after Colombia & Jack in them.

He's looked terrible for years. It's sad considering he's not that old. Even considering his condition a 5 inch height loss is shocking. Are you sure some fo that isn't posture?
