Kane was always, and I mean always taller than taker no matter when he was Kane or Issac Yankem
Kane 6'8 peak
Taker6'7.5 peak, however taker has aged terribly, compared to him kane has pretty much kept a healthier body
Today I think Kane can measure "around" 6'8 with military posture, but standing loose and hunching like he does on TV he some times appears barely 6'7
as for Taker I think at 6'6.5 is fair now
Vegas said on 14/Feb/15
Bol was said to have been measured at 7'6.75 and Mureșan at 7'6.5.
Bradley either 7'5 1/2 or 7'5 3/4

232cm would make gonzales the tallest player to ever play in the nba and yet his name is never mentioned regarding that particular record.
What about Manute Bol? Was he not just shy of 7'7"? Shawn Bradley was pretty close to that measurement as well.

I think Undertaker and Sid were both about 6'7" in their prime.

@ Ali Baba
How tall were you at the time you took a picture with Taker?
Were you exactly 198 cm or little shorter?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Could have been anywhere from 197 to 198 CM. Probably closer to 198 that day since I didn't work and have to wear a bunch of gear. But I was on my feet for several hours straight.
James said on 12/Feb/15
6'7 1/2 peak looks questionable if
Sid Eudy was 6'6 1/2
JT said on 11/Feb/15
Click Here I read somewhere that Gonzalez's pituitary tumor was discovered in his mid-30s. However, he clearly had the tumor since childhood and in all likelihood was done growing before WCW.
It looks like the Atlanta Hawks did measure him and tippy toes weren't allowed.
Click Here If he was measured in shoes, those don't give too much boost. A Sports illustrated article from 1989 said Gonzalez was 7'6 1/2" which may have been his measured height in those shoes.

He had a website and true he was 7ft 6 but he grew to 2.32 after wrestling I dont know if that true but thats what his Website said

Time to destroy that myth once and for all. Gonzalez was listed as 7ft6 in the 2000 edition of Guinness. Just like he was listed at 7ft6 while playing basketball for the Atlanta Hawks or 229cm while playing basketball in Argentine.

6'7.5 as his peak height is spot on. Taker and Sid looked to be the same height. Sid had a good 2 inch advantage on Hogan.

Taker looking more to the cam adds as much to the illusion as his clear footwear advantage...

I still can´t see the so big and obvious footware difference you keep mentioning:

Tried also a pic where both had their feet up so not to be "sunk" in the ring mat.
But I´ll give you footware, but in turn I get jbl higher ground position and taker so obviously bent knees (unlike here:

The other pic of the staredown also shows the same considerable height advantage taker has and you can also notice how jbl is looking quite up:
Taker looking more to the cam adds as much to the illusion as his clear footwear advantage...
If Taker looks at JBL the tip of Takers nose is at JBL´s eyelevel, so he´s about 2-2.5" taller nothing more without footwear advantage.
Taker was 6´7.25"-6´7.5" peak and is 6´6.5"-6´6.75" today
Classic Undertaker was 6´8.5"-6´8.75" in wrestlingboots. Master of Pain was in standardboots with less sole 6´8"-6´8.25", billed at 6´8" in 1989....
If peak Mark was legit 6´8" he would been 6´9" in boots and billed at that at least.
He was never billed 6´10" before WWE when he was feuding with 6´8" billed Hogan and visible taller...
Funny looking back at the wcw billings they seem to have had a two inch rule...
Or adding one inch at height in boots...
Tyler Mane was 6´8", 6´9" in boots, billed 6´10" in wcw
Kevin Nash was 6´9", 6´10" in boots, billed 6´11" in wcw
Mark Calaway was 6´7", 6´8" in boots, billed at 6´9" in wcw
same goes for Hogan when he went to wcw:
6´5" barefoot, 6´6" in boots, billed 6´7" ...
Of course not talking about +-fractions and occasionally bigger billings....

This time Taker has the bigger footwear and is closer to the cam, I can see max 2.5" between them legit, probably just 2"
Red, you should now better, this particular camera angle favours the man on "top", you´ve even used this argument with a staredown between khali and taker putting taker on same horizontal level as khali (without scaling taker´s size ;P).
Here you go:
Click Here
But forget about that, I don´t think either taker or jbl really have any advantage in the staredown when they´re close.
We have used many of this kind of staredowns, we were "lucky" with this one because jbl lifted his title so taker has better posture than he usually has because he was staring the title :)

6´5" JBL in cowboyboots basicly the same height as Taker ~2000
JBL cowboyboots are not the biggest ones, so he would be at best 6´7" but more like 6´6.75" in them.
If Taker was 6´8" barefoot he would be near 6´9" in footwear there... doesn´t look so for sure!

LoL Khali 6'11-6'11.5 thats why he was the same height as Shaquille O'Neal who's 7'2.5 in running shoes. I do think Undertaker had a footwear advantage with giant Khali, but I don't believe he's under 6'7'' stretched out either.
James B said on 8/Jan/15
Yes judging by his past stare downs with 6'6.25
Sid Eudy I don't think taker was over 6'7 flat to begin with and there looked more than 1.5 inches between him and legit 6'9 Kevin Nash at mania 96.
6'6.5 might be his barefoot heights today?
josey wales said on 8/Jan/15
Ali isn't over foot anymore. He is a massive man compared to typical other sevnfooters, but probably ducks under 7 foot today, say 6'11". 6'6" for the Taker is spot on. I wonder if Show clears 6'10" today
Mathew said on 8/Jan/15
Danimal says on 5/Dec/14
HOW? Ali is under 6'6" today and Taker was barely taller than him AND Taker had the footwear advantage?
---
If we say Ali is currently a "weak" 6'6" then Undertaker is, maybe, 6'6.5". I wouldn't put him any taller than that. The difference between the two appears to be small, somewhere around a half inch, but to get more precise than that we'd really need to measure. Maybe in his youth Undertaker was a legit 6'7" or even slightly over that, but today I 'd put my money on 6'6.5".
Mathew said on 7/Jan/15

Is Khali 6'11" now too? or how about having around 3" on 6'5" JBL a few years back? His posture is awful in Ali's pic and still looks taller. Absoluetly zero chance he is anything less than a weak 6'7" today full stretched out. People don't loose 2" before 50!

Estimating weight fro that pic is impossible, AliBaba saw him live, as close as you can get...
But even seeing someone in person... very hard to tell weight especially for tall people.
I remember going to a new gym 15 years ago and the coach looked at me and asked about 85kg ~190lbs, I went on the scale and had 102kg 225lbs and I´m not oversized at 6ft.

Jackie Knife, the people you listed i have met in person (or stood very close to) are: khali, show, kane, taker, albert, swagger, goldust, orton, axel, sheamus, henry, batista, austin, cena, miz, bret, cody rhodes, ziggler, christian, hbk, xpac, rvd, bryan and mysterio. i have been in the same room a few feet away from rock, jericho and cesaro...just to say not arguing half inches as my estimates are usually +- half an inch
rock was taller than vader in 1997 so you could probably swap those guys peak heights around. looking at batista with 5'8 mamun recently i don't think he has fallen as low as 186cm although prior to his returning to wwe he would have been a guy i would have said lost height (but not anymore)..hhh doesn't seem as low as 184cm either and he was noticeably taller in dress-shoes than ryback (in gear) at a show i attended last week and i was seated quite far back but still could tell hhh looked taller.
christian is about 5'11.5 in person, cena is a shade over 6ft and rvd is around 5'11. henry isn't as tall as 6'2 out of gear. sheamus looked closer to 6'3 in person but he did have suspicious footwear it must be said, however in those he was identical in height to chris masters whom i saw standing together talking at the bar, a fan about 5 inches taller than both then came over talking them..some "really" tall wrestling fans out there

Hogan was nothing more than 195cm/ 6´4.75" facing Sid in 1992.
At peak 6´5.25".
Tiny Lister told the truth, both were 6´5" during their feud.
Taker was 2-2.25" taller in 1991/1992 so solid 6´7"
Sid was 1.75" taller than Hogan in 1992, so Rob is right with 6´6.5".

Mike, I wasn't wearing boots. I was wearing a shoe that gives me 1.125 inches. So I was right around 6'7". Taker was wearing boots. Whether or not they gave him any extra is unknown.
JT, I don't doubt he's taller than me because like I said it felt like he was. But a half inch at the most. Now if his boots gave him a boost over my shoes then even less. But he's obviously not 6'7". Let alone 6'8 to 6'10" as some believe.
Ali, take into account that Taker has been wrestling for 30 years, has had severe injuries, surgeries and is around 50 years old. I can assure you, that if your current self stood next to a young and healthy Taker from circa 1990, things would be different. Hogan was 6'5.5"-6'6" (your current height) legit in 1990 and Taker was noticeably taller than him back then (easily 6'7").
Clay said on 7/Nov/14

A peak height LOL Rob ! I knew Nash was 6'10 1/2 once and is now around 6'9. UT 20 years ago was never 3in shorter, shorter yes but never 3in. Still I agree UT is now about 6'7.
MikeV10 said on 5/Nov/14
see it the same way JT,
taker has a very low eyelevel and a huge Forehead.
If ali is the same eyelevel as taker , taker is at least 2- 3 cm taller . If they where the same height ,takers eyelevel would be lower than alis.
In this pic Sids eylevel is heigher than takers , but taker is still a tad taller

Alex 6'0 said on 25/Oct/14
Stadiometers are typically very good. My results on them are about the same as against the wall. The stadiometer rod on the weight scale I think is pretty good or the tool that Rob has but the one you have to mount against the wall if not mounted totally correct it will be off a bit. One stadio against the wall I measured on was about an inch off!!
Editor Rob
when using something like the can, it's always worth remembering to go with the highest part of the pencil line and get the line as near to the can as possible so you don't short change yourself a mm, not that it's of any great significance, but still :)
Enos said on 25/Oct/14
It makes sense that he is between 6'6 1/2'' 6'6 3/4'' barefoot, and could have rounded up to 6'8'' maybe a little more than that in boots. does that make any sense rob?

I was measured in the gym with a stadiometer. Maybe the particular stadiometer was not a well made one Rob! I don't trust digital ones too though.
Josey Wales said on 23/Oct/14
Think 6-7 is a bit of a stretch but im sure we can call him a very believable 6'6" making 6'7 1/2" quite possible for peak height
George F said on 23/Oct/14
Rob the stadiometer is not a reliable way to measure your height properly. It happens to me. The most accurate method of measurement i believe is the aerosol method, i have been measured a hundred of times and i have the same result with the aerosol method. Maybe the stadiometer will show you shorter than what you really are. Have you noticed that too Rob?
Editor Rob
stadiometers are fine, there might be small errors though, but well made ones will be very precise.
George F said on 22/Oct/14
Rob you said in one post that most people would agree that Dwayne Johnson is from 6ft 2.5 to 6ft 3.5 and I don't understand why you have him at 6ft 3. After all the right thing wouldn't be to have him his night height, the lowest possible which I agree with you is 189 cm?
Editor Rob
I still think because he stands loose or leans in a lot of photos it creates a shorter impression for him...catch him standing tall and I think he could still knock near the 6ft 3 mark on the stadiometer.
Mark said on 21/Oct/14

Yeah. Fully stretched out. Maybe if you pull his knees out of socket an inch he'll be 6'7 or more. He looks 6'6" and some change in that picture with Ali. While Kane is looking just under 6'7 these days. That seems about right considering Kane has always shown a complexion of being slightly taller than Taker.
Greenbolt said on 17/Oct/14
I apologize for the name change, Rob, I just realized there was another 'Greg' going to this site, and thought it would be best to switch.

I had a conversation with my father yesterday about him meeting the Undertaker back in 97. He took a picture with him which I recall seeing when I was kid. My father is 6'7.25 and according to him and Calloway were eye to eye. In his opinion Mark Calloway was 6'7 flat peak. I'm hoping he can find that picture, but I wouldn't hold my breathe considering how disorganized he is lol

And there's no where near an inch difference between us, even without any difference in shoes.

Alex2 says on 16/Oct/14
These comments are ridiculous, Taker has awful posture in Ali's photos and still looks around an inch taller. I guarantee he is at least 6'7 fully stretched out.
His posture was fine other than his drooping head, which I mimicked. He is not bent at the waist at all. You're making stuff up now.
miko said on 17/Oct/14
Taker was never 6'8 barefoot IMO, he never really looked that tall at any point in the early 90's. A solid 6'7 prime and a weak 6'7 today, might drop a hair below 6'7 late in the day. Half an inch loss, Rob has it nailed.
Miiiiiiighty_- said on 16/Oct/14
No way he was under 6'8 prime.
He was more than 2 inches taller than Jake the Snake who was a strong 6'5 ( almost as tall as Mabel back around 1995 )
6'7 Prime taker doesn't make sense..
That would make a 6'6.5 at best Sid ? How do people explain the difference with Sting etc ???
I personally met Kevin Nash in 1995, was 5'10 back then, asked him his height he said 6'10 and the president of the university (a friend of my father, Tenessee university if I recall correctly ) where he played basket ball said the same thing told me and I quote " Ah Kev? Big guy ! He is 6'11 " I didn't even know his name was kevin back then to me he was just Diesel.
So I guess 6'11 was his "inshoes" measurement so he was 6'10 probably.
Remember he was billed 7' when they told me that..
I think for both taker and nash Billed height - 2 inches = prime standing tall height, so that would make Nash 6'10-6'10.25 and Taker 6'8-6'8.5 which seemed to be the difference between them during their staredown..
I had pics with Nash I try to get them but I don't know where they are ;(
He looked a legit full foot taller than me imo

I agree with George F in that think heights are slightly on high side possibly in not looking to offend anyone.
George F said on 14/Oct/14
I believe Rob's site is the most accurate for heights but most of the times Rob is too generous. I mean adding 2 cm in celebrities height for being right in guessing and not to underestimate a celeb height is a problem for me. I have noticed when I see a height that Rob has listed I drop 1-1.5 cm and I believe it's closer to the truth. But Rob's ability in height guessing is remarkable anyway.
The A-List said on 13/Oct/14
6'7'' seems about right for big mark.
Markus said on 13/Oct/14
JUST an opinion!
Based atmospheric perspective, shoulders, waist and pelvic levels, I would still say 6'7.5" to 6'8" is possible for Undertaker. Even receded back, he still appears taller.
The bend in the lower torso (stomach) certainly indicated that he isn't even trying to stand up straight. There are too many people who have met him and haven't questioned his own 6'8" claim.
If we have Tyler Mane listed at 6'8" when he appears shorter, Taker should be no lower.
George F said on 13/Oct/14
Rob what's the point of list wrestlers height barefoot? Especially in wrestlers height is important with boots on. I mean nobody cares a wrestler's height barefoot. For example Undertaker can be 6ft 7 with boots on, that counts to me.
Editor Rob
because barefoot height is the equalizer.

My doc also went onto to say even if your large framed at 6feet you shouldn't weigh 187 lbs or over.
That doesn't take into account for any weightlifting and muscle development, WHAT SO EVER. Those BMI's that doc's give you are a joke.

After seeing the pic with Ali Baba. I have come to this conclusion. that the Undertaker in his prime was about 6'8" IN boots. barefoot a very strong 6'6". between 6'6.5"-6'6.75" I do believe when he played high school basketball he was listed at 6'8"? now we know a lot of basketball players like Derrick Rose and Kevin Love for example are listed with their listed height in shoes. Kevin Love 6'10" in shoes, however was measured at 6'7.75" barefoot. Derrick Rose 6'3" in shoes, barefoot 6'1.5" Ali Baba how tall do you think Taker is?
Taker was noticeably taller than 6'6" Mabel/Viscera in the staredown in the 1990's. I think he was over 6'7" in his prime.
Alex 6'0 said on 11/Oct/14
Technically at about 210lbs I'm overweight but I am good amount of muscle and size. Yea I'm no pro bodybuilder but I'm still a pretty big guy. If I weighed this and didn't have muscle then Id be out of shape. For a 6'0 that doesn't workout and have muscle 160-180lb range seems healthy.
Daddy said on 11/Oct/14
Rob, I'm glad to see you update the deadman as he doesn't seem to measure up, so to speak, anymore. But, I still think 6'6.75"! Keep it it mind. And while you're at it, consider if Kane could use a downgrade too. On Smackdown! A few weeks ago, Erick Rowan (6'6" - 6'7") looked to be the same height.
P.S. Thanks for downgrading Big show to 6'11". But just to satisfy a kid's curiosity, would you say Paul Wight was more 7'0.5" or 6'11.5" as a young man in the then WWF?

@ Danimal, not exactly anorexic, Peter Crouch is pushing 6 ft 8 and is 170 pounds, that's borderline anorexic weight for that height. 200 pounds for 6 ft 6 is on the skinny side for sure but not anorexic by any means. I think an average build 6'6" guy would be more 220 pounds odd.

EXACTLY! I have a friend who is 6'4" and he weighs 225 pounds and looks like a rake with some lean muscle. A healthy 6'6" should be about 250 pounds, while carrying some lean muscle and a bit of fat. Even 260-280 isn't obese on a 6'6" guy. 200 pounds is anorexic for someone of that height.

Ali Baba, you're usually 6'6 flat most of the day or a bit over. UT is 6'6.5 to maybe 6'7 max with better posture.
Don't forget Alex, Taker had the shoe advantage. Could have been .5"-1" more in footwear in Taker's advantage. It's very possible that if you subtract the footwear advantage, they're the same height. Also, Ali supposedly wasn't standing full tall he said.
Danimal said on 11/Oct/14
Ali Baba says on 10/Oct/14
Danimal, if Hogan really has lost that amount of height, which is obviously hotly debated, then his whole perspective has changed. Try dropping down three inches while hanging out with your friends and see how weird it feels. Just the little bit that I'm losing now is noticeable when I'm with other guys I've known for a while who are close to my height.
In all honesty, it's not that debatable. Hogan was taller than legit 6'5" men in the 1980's. Most noticeably Jake the Snake Robert and Hilbilly Jim (both 6'5" guys) and if you go to Hilbilly Jim's website, there is a height comparison of him and Hogan (one from 1985 and one from 1989 where Hogan has minimum 1" on him) and then there's an updated pic from the 2002-2004 where Hogan is a solid 2" shorter than Hilbilly. Even a recent comparison of him next to Nikolai Volkoff where they are the same height today and in the 1980's he had at least 3" on him. I can go on, but that's for the Hogan page. Even a 1992 Hogan was barely shorter than a PRIME Undertaker (maybe 1-2") at that time. Hogan was also 2" shorter than 6'8" Ben Davidson and had 2" on 6'4" King Kong Bundy and Big Bossman and was about 1" shorter than 6'7" Big John Studd. He even had 4" on 6'2" Ed Leslie (Brutus Beefcake) in the '70's and '80's and recent pics show them at the EXACT SAME height. Lastly, he had 2" on 6'4" Buster Douglas in 1990 and was at least 1"-2" shorter than 6'4" Troy Aikman a couple of years ago. So yeah, not very debatable. My point was, he was around your current height today. Just imagine struggling with 6'3" today when you once stood 3" taller.

Ali, what's the tallest you've ever been measured? The best I can give Taker at this point is 6'6.5" That's what makes Nash such an odd one because he looks in the 6'8" to 6'9" range with Rob but he's not a full 2" taller than Taker. I don't think there's any way Taker is a full 6'7" now. He looks identical in height to you.

Clay I am 5'7 myself and weigh 145 pounds and my doctor told me that a 6'6 man to avoid problems like heart problems should weigh 200 pound.
I have mentioned this before but I knew a 6ft guy who weighed 210 pounds who had a heart attack. He lost weight and got down to 173 pounds and still the docs ordered him to lose an additional 5 pounds and get down to 168 pounds.
Often men let there weight get higher than medically recommended and women often let there weight go under what is healthy.

@James B
So a 6'6/6'7 should weigh as much as your average 6footer? Not a chance buddy. 230ish would be better. I weigh 257 at 6'5, but I have a huge frame/structure.
Danimal said on 10/Oct/14
Ali Baba, I'm sure you and a PEAK Hulk Hogan would have been exactly the same height. Today, I'm sure you'd have a good 3" on him. Just imagine shrinking to 6'3" Ali Baba by 60 and you'll know how it feels to be Hulk Hogan today.

Click Here Click Here If the tops of the scalps were at the same level, Taker’s hair (thinner than Ali’s) would not be higher unless Ali’s head is shaved or bald at the crown, which it certainly does not look like. It's just an abnormally long forehead from the eyes up that makes him taller than he appears. Whether Taker had some extra boost in his work boots is a separate question. In the ring he arguably looked 6'8"-6'9" in the corporate ministry days and staredowns with Khali but recently closer to 6’6” with guys like Triple H, Lesnar and Batista. Maybe it’s posture related, maybe it's lifts.

Ali Baba so in your estimation how tall would you say Taker is?
James B said on 9/Oct/14
Ali Baba- at your height you should aim to weigh 198 pounds If you want to be as healthy as you can.
Arch Stanton said on 9/Oct/14
James B says on 8/Oct/14
Chris a 6'6 or 6'7 guy should weigh 200 pounds ??
Not an average build guy. A proper 6'6-6'7 and average build would be more 215-220 I think.
Jimbob said on 9/Oct/14
If anything Ali looks to have the edge, probably arguing over fractions. Very close.
miko said on 9/Oct/14
If Taker was measured and stood his tallest he'd still hit 6'7 IMO....
With his posture though I can understand him looking 6'6 on occasion.
Ali Baba said on 8/Oct/14
Frank, Taker's eye level is not higher in that picture. I'm not trying to argue with it, it just isn't.
Chris, I'm 250 pounds. I would bet Taker outweighs me by a good 30 pounds. He's still pretty stout. Just not as fit as he used to be.

Ali I thought your head is higher with my estimation.
Click Here
But i believe you and therefore I say Taker isn't over 6'6.5"
Frank said on 8/Oct/14
Undertaker looks Taller than Ali Baba but not by much Even Taker eye level is alittle higher than his Even Ali Baba said he thought Taker was taller
The Shortest I say Taker can be is 6ft 6.5 When I met Taker back in 93 he told me he was 6ft 9 which now I say is NOT TRUE!!
Chris said on 8/Oct/14
Ali Baba.....Just curious what is your current weight? I know 'Taker has dropped quite a bit of weight over the last few years but he appears similar to your body size. I'm guessing 240-250......close??
CARLOS V said on 8/Oct/14
This pic is a dream come true, never though we can have a pic like that with a guy like Ali baba that is so important because his height, My guess is strong 6´6. I always thought taker was 6´5, because his poor posture with all wrestlers (sid,cena,triple h, Lesnar...), when he was in a good posture because the estature of his oponent (very few times) he had shined. (with show, nash, kalhi).
He always have the head bend down, and his back hump. In this pic he has 0.5-1 inch left. I notice his legs are bigger and level of shoulder is taller.
Noway under 6.6. I am very happy that taker is so big.
And I notice Ali baba have a sensation of taker was bigger than him.
Thanks a lot Ali.
Joe said on 8/Oct/14
People are jumping to conclusions regarding this latest pic with Ali Baba, Undertaker hardly ever stands up straight, his posture is very poor, He has had various injuries and operations throughout the year. I would say he is at least 6'7 today when standing fully straight, Peak height was 6'8 / 6'8.5.
KROC said on 8/Oct/14
Andrea a REAL 6'6 doesn't look any different then someone who is 6'5. I mean its only an inch. There are certain heights that look more or less the same to most people. 6'5/6'6 is just that.
dave said on 7/Oct/14
Undertaker 6'6" TODAY 6'7" PEAK
Kevin Nash 6'7.5" Today 6'9 PEAK

Arch, of course he is "seriously" tall, a REAL 6'6 is very very tall/exceptionally tall... And i talk for personal experience because i have this friend who is a solid 198 guy and he's way taller than most of the people! You're probably used to "6'6 hollywood guys", who are basically 6'4-6'5 who attempt to claim 6'6...
Who are these '' 6'6 Hollywood guys '' you're referring to?! The tallest mainstreamers in Hollywood like Vince Vaughn, Goldblum, Bob Saget, Conan, Hasselhoff, Tom Selleck etc. are all legitimtely their 6'4-5'' claims.
Wrestlers are a differen't story, everyone knows they lie about their size - thats been known for Millennia.
James B said on 7/Oct/14
6'8 peak rob?
184.3cm said on 7/Oct/14
I dont think hes more than 2m today. An inch loss for him is perfectly reasonable. Maybe better at 6'6.5 today. Its a small difference noway an inch difference.
Attitude said on 7/Oct/14
Thanks Ali Baba! You're awesome dude!
Undertaker is looking a strong 6'5 there. Work boots typically give a whopping 1.5 inches at least. Dress boots 1.3 to 1.5 inches. I'd say Taker has the footwear advantage easily. But look at shoulder height and it is the same.
I'd give undertaker 6'5 on the dot. Hell, those work boots could give him more lift, so he COULD be shorter. Wow.
I wonder if he is still near peak height

Just in case anyone is wondering where my head is under my hair I got a hair cut two days before the picture and made sure it was very short just to try to ease the estimate here. Here's a pretty close mark of where my actual head is Click Here

I now think 6'6 based on Ali's pic is a fair estimation.
Johno said on 7/Oct/14
Ali Baba, excellent pictures as usual. I think rather then stating what height he is; you can ascertain what height he is not -- he does not seem to touch 6'7.
I am surprised you go as low as 6'5.5/ Undertaker quite clearly not taller then you. As a matter fact, I would put you a fraction taller then him. I have rough guess on how much height "workboots" typically add. This new speculative height would go a long way to explain why Cena measures up strongly to Undertaker; as he clearly does and what height Kevin Nash actually maybe [~1.5 inches on taker].
Ali Baba 6'5.5 - 6'6.5
Undertaker strong 6'5 ranger: 6'6 in the mornings.
Johno said on 7/Oct/14
6.6/weak 6.6
JT said on 6/Oct/14
Same basic outcome as my earlier pic
Click Here The huge head is the only thing that saves him. I'm actually surprised he still looks this tall (unless his work boots are giving him more boost than we're assuming, which we'll never know).
Mark said on 6/Oct/14
Rob 1/2 downgrade isn't enough. I know you'd take heat from some but best being accurate surely.
Editor Rob
I think you could argue 6ft 6.5, but based on one photo I'm not as sure
Michael said on 6/Oct/14
I´ve been watching Taker since 24 years now and I´m a fan since 22 years. I saw tons of pics with him. His peak height is more than 2,02 m (6-7,5) for sure! About 2,03/2,04 m (6-8+) barefoot. He was always a little bit taller than Sid (1-2 cm, 0,5").
James B said on 6/Oct/14

@ Ali Baba, you're seriously tall!!
Clay said on 5/Oct/14
Thats frustrating both Undertaker and Mane are in tooque's with Ali. Mane looks a little taller to me, Taker is a weak 6'7'' nowadays just as I speculated.
Frank said on 5/Oct/14
Taker looks alittle taller than Mane in Ali Baba's photos
Chris said on 5/Oct/14
Ali Baba, thanks for sharing that photo....Great shot of both of you.
Mark said on 5/Oct/14
Wrote previous post before Ali Baba today. Even states he adjusted his posture to meet Takers. 6'6 maximum.
JT said on 5/Oct/14
Thanks for the great pic, Ali. It looks like he might have you by around an inch but only because of his abnormally long forehead.
Click Here His craning his neck forward a bit is probably offset by any footwear advantage he had. In a staredown I bet your eye levels would be about the same.
Red183 said on 5/Oct/14
Rob could you do a current height because Taker is noway 4cm taller than AliBaba
Editor Rob
he could have lost between half and 1 inch today
Mark said on 5/Oct/14
Ali Baba has stated himself he's around 6'5 3/4. Minimal difference between him and Undertaker in reality. Face it not 6'8 Kevin Nash realistically that height and he had 2" on Taker.
Ali Baba said on 5/Oct/14
Undertaker definitely felt taller than Mane but he did have a touch more footwear. My shoes give me just under 1&1/8". I'm not sure what Taker's boots gave him. Maybe a little more than than that. I tried to mimic his posture and dropped a little height myself. Taker's posture is actually very good until you get to his neck. He always has his head forward. And I'm not sure where the top of his head is under the hat. I don't think it was pulled tight to actually hug his head. When he first came out and I saw what kind of hat he was wearing I thought we were good to go in that respect, but I'm not sure now.
He was very cordial and shook everyone's hand and said hello and everything. Very soft spoken and relaxed. There were probably close to 500 people there to have a picture taken with him and then at least that many waited to go to his autograph table. He was there a lot longer than originally planned.
And Bob, I assure you I'm not taller than that. After a long day recently I even measured 6'5.5".
Joe said on 5/Oct/14
Thanks for the pic Ali Baba, so what is your official guess on his height? He looks taller than you slightly, depending on foot ware and the fact he probably wasn't standing as tall as he could.. 6'7 ? 6'7.5 ?
vinny said on 4/Oct/14
James B says on 10/Sep/14
Matt Bloom is taller than Test and is very close to Undertaker and Kanes height, and in some cases can even look a bit taller. I'd put him no less than 6'6".
Perhaps..
6'7" peak Kane and Undertaker both
6'4.5" JBL
6'6.5" Albert
6'4.5-6'5" Test

Ali you re a true celebheights hero! Thank you very much!
Taker looks 2-2,5cm taller - footwear ??
Takers body looks strong 6'5" - weak 6'6" type but his head is veeerry long.
If footwear is equal I say Taker is exactly 2,00m today
miko said on 4/Oct/14
Just seen the Ali Baba picture, Taker is looking a solid 6'7 there when you consider his posture (he's leaning his head in a little like he does in most photos) and how much height he has on him already (around an inch).
Mark said on 4/Oct/14
So Ali Baba how tall would you say Undertaker was in your opinion?
cdk82 said on 4/Oct/14
Undertaker looks 6'7.75" in boots
6'6.5" barefoot
1PunchBob said on 4/Oct/14
Ali Baba looked a tad taller than Tyler Mane and a tad shorter than Undertaker (top of head - not hair) but both claim 6-8. Either Ali is taller than 6-6 or both Tyler and Taker are around 6-7ish at best...
cdk23 said on 4/Oct/14
JBL WAS 6'5" PEAK
TODAY HE IS 6'4.5"
miko said on 4/Oct/14
Taker in good posture is still clearly 6'7 range. Has he lost any height? It's possible, but I'd doubt its more than half an inch, his posture is just not what it used to be.
James B said on 4/Oct/14
Nope JBL is no way 6'6

I met and was around JBL for a while at the HOF banquet in Waterloo, Iowa a couple of years ago. I didn't get a picture with him but several photos of him. My best guess was 6'6"....He was taller than I expected. He was wearing tennis shoes when I was around him. Fairly nice guy....I asked him if he ever met Andre while he worked in Japan. He said "Yes, but very briefly." Bascially, he said Andre was sitting backstage at an event and JBL walked over to him and introduced himself. He said he was just a quick exchange but he was glad he went over to meet him.

Also Undertaker made
Sid Eudy look 6'6.5.

Sid just to clarify think his 6'7 peak height is his evening measurement . Quite possible he was taller first thing in the morning.
Ryan said on 24/Sep/14
JBL height? 6'6? Rob?

If undertaker was 6'7 peak that would make kevin nash 6'8 peak, there no way undertaker was peak 6'7 he has to be 6'8 peak, and nash 6'10 peak
Ali Baba said on 23/Sep/14
I'll give a better estimate in a couple of weeks.
Daddy said on 22/Sep/14
Rob, Undertaker needs a downgrade! All who watched this man wrestle in 2014 could see he's shorter than he was in his 30s. He's more like 6'6.75"/200cm today. I'm now also thinking Kane might need to be downgraded to 6'7.25" now too.
Ali Baba said on 21/Sep/14
I think his head looks longer than it really is because of the receding hairline.
Aza said on 21/Sep/14
Undertaker is now 6'6. Peak height 6'7

Ali Baba said on 12/Sep/14
Bud, that looks like a composite picture to me. Meaning each individual wrestler was photographed separately and photoshopped into one picture. Triple H is no where near that short next to Taker in any other pic I've seen them in.

With then 6'11.5 big show in that photo undertaker looks 6'8.5 for sure. Takers hair advantage can make him look 6'9 range in the pic.
Either that or big show is 6'10 which is unlikely but taker I am sure would not be over 6'7 in that pic.
