I don't know, but in this battle royal this is about the closest that I've seen to getting a comparison of sycho sid and issac yankem. not a real good one, but maybe someone can get something from it. like I said, taker imo at max is 6'7.5'', but Im leaning 6'6 3/4'' 6'7'' somewhere in that area. I would like to have seen a peek sid and taker barefoot.

No Red, you´re not being generous at all :)
Even if taker has "only" 3 inches over in the comparisons you posted still taker is nowhere standing straight, and tip toes and posture counts a lot, and its perfectly clear that "shango" does make an effort in that area, here´s my contibution:Click Here
Either way, using hogan crush and sid as measuring sticks looks like hogan wouldn´t be much taller than him, so IMO 6'4 1/2 is more than possible for shango.
About crush he was taller than 1992 hogan yes, hogan at under 6'5 1/2 is unlikely at the time, just need to remind you of the way he towered (easily 5 inches) piper who was at the time still taller than 6' bret hart (6' still when rob met him), so again that puts crush at easily 6'6.
Hall IMO was no less than 6'5, actually if anything he was most likely a little taller...he did have problaby not much over 1 inch on bundy but bundy was wearing bigger soles than the 80ies for sure, so not enough to lower hall, bundy clearly looks 6'4, both hogan and hall could have been 6'5 1/2 peak IMO or maybe 6'6 for hogan.
Now about goldust, he looks over 6'4 today next to 6'3 sheamus in smaller footwear:

I did not find any comparison with both standing tall but considering the already noticeable around 3 inches difference, goldust´s footwear at the time:Click Here and the fact that goldust still looks over 6'4 today (imo could have been 6'5 peak, minimum 6'4 1/2) that is far from putting taker at under 6'8.
About Heidenreich, I do believe he is around 6'6 like Vegas, snitsky I don´t have an estimate but he is very tall for sure, he had 6'5 lister by an easy 1 inch, but other than that footwear or posture may help him both in wwe or in the music clip, have no idea really: Click Here around 3:26 mark.
By the way, my estimates are what you might call average height throughout the day ;)

There´s zero chance that Taker has 4 inches on 6´4" Goldust.

I saw Goldust in December. He didn't look a full 6'4" to me. Looked 6'2 to 6'3". I expected him to be taller.

I saw 6´5" listings too, he wasn´t a big name in football so it´s hard to get something. Anyway, he wasn´t taller than 6´5" Snitsky
_______________
seemed more than 6'5 flat to me in person and i met him about 11pm about an hour after a show. he was also taller than test that night. comparing heidenreich and john tenta next to animal, heidenreich looked taller. in person out of gear there didn't look to be a huge difference between kane/taker and heidenreich

Taker with his knees slightly bent looked close to 2 inches taller than Mabel
Yes Frank, and also you can also see that mabel has bigger footware. So nothing less than a 2 inch difference.
Red, first of all crush was taller than hogan and hall, I think its pretty clear he was closer in height next to sid than even a peak hogan: Click Here
Also you´re putting taker 1 1/2 taller based on this:Click Here
Sorry, but thats around 2 inches already and taker is not standing straight, he´s clearly bending down.
Crush I would put at around 6'6: Click Here
Here we can compare him with bobby heenan and cowboy boot wearing randy savage.
About jbl it should be clear by now taker has over 2 inches on him standing straight...jbl he is no 6'6 IMO but 6'5 minimum possible 6'5 1/2 maximum peak.
Khali has no way 6 inches on taker, taker has stood straight with him...and taker wasn´t anymore at peak height, about shaq I´ve read 7'1 but if you´ve seen those figures you mention I trust you.
Vegas met heidenreich and estimated him at 6'6, he did take a picture with him and I remember heidenreich looked really tall, he looked 6'6 for sure next to lod animal.
And last, charles wright, I´ve been watching some attitude era videos (between 98-99) and he´s clearly at least 1 inch taller than the rock, who I think is one of the hardest people to pin down height, he was taller than near 6'3 vader in smaller footware, he´s one I would not bet on his height, but he can´t be less than 6'3 IMO unless he has lost height already.

Taker was taller than 6ft 5 unless he wears lifts I was face to face with him
The shortest he could be is 6ft 6.5 HE was taller than 6ft 5 listed guys in football like JBL & Heidenreich He was more than an inch taller than Golddust whos about 6ft 4

Putting Taker at 6´7" just fits perfect with the other heights
No Red it doesn´t, in my honest opinion it just downgrades a whole lot of men including measured athletes like 6'8 akebono, 7´1 shaq, 6'6 gary godsey, 6'7 1/2 oliver miller, 6'5 ben roethlisberger, I think you know with who these men have stood with.
Also in wrestling you have 6'6 tenta (next in line for a downgrade from what I´ve been reading from some posters...)who barely edged hogan when sid had nearly 2 inches or even the full 2 inches on him and taker is taller ( yeah despite some tip toes ;)), peak nash also is no way under 6'9 1/2 like we saw with oliver miller and gary godsey for example and also with many others he looked it or even a bit taller, but people pic just him with mane to lower his height...
About kane I´ve posted so many times, but again even recently in bigger footware (not as big as when he debuted as kane of course) he was not taller than taker, and obviously taker is not at his peak height.
6'8 akebono has no 2 inches on mabel/bdv, you have many staredows in matches they had, so 6'6 1/2 makes sense.
taker and mabel: Click Here
As I have mentioned before I don´t go with the lowest possible heights, I agree that are moments where they can seem shorter but my estimates are based on know heights (for good reference) and good posture "moments".
Either way I noticed you´ve lowered your estimates on taker sid and nash, well, with them all wrestlers we can compare with them will also come down ;)

Undertaker was billed 6'9 in indies, NWA and WCW. When he was playing the "texas red" character he was 19 years old. Undertaker was always slightly shorter than Kane even if Kane wore lifts.

Taker looks about 2.5 to 3 inches on Wright
Exactly what I think, between 2.5 and 3 inches is right. Taker had the same heightadvantage over Papa-Shango-Wright so noone was in fudged footwear imo.
Wright gaines a little bit height by raising his head so he can appear shorter than he is but he was about the Rocks height in NOD, maybe 0.5-0.75" taller, so anything over 6´4" is out of question.
@Tuga
We can´t see footwear in the first pic and imo Taker has better posture there than JBL.
The in ring pic favours Taker bigtime and looking at the vid Taker had bigger soles than JBL.
JBL was only 1" shorter than Sid imo, the cam position of their staredown was bad.
JBL in cowboyboots looked as tall as Taker in flat shoes outside the ring, so I can´t buy anything over 2 inches between them.
Kane as Unabomb looked the same height as Taker, max. 0.5" taller, same as in the Yankeem staredown.
That also fits with Taker barely edging Sid in the Memphis staredown because Imo Sid was a weak 6´7".
Much letters but only my opinion ;)
Taker 6´7" evening
Wright 6´4" evening
Sid 6´6.5"evening
Right out of bed +1 inch for all.
Yeah JBL could be 6'5

Red, sadly there isn´t any good (that I could find) comparison between "shango" or whatever name and taker, even in street clothes at wembley stadium shango is standing in his tiptoes...in his staredowns with taker he is almost falling to the front...but 6'4 range for shango could be right but honestly he´s a hard one to tell.
Whatch again the match between jbl and sid, sid has a couple of inches on him, sid today IMO is around 6'6 but peak was 6'7 range.
If anybody has the footware advantge in the pic of jbl and taker it is jbl with his regulary used cowboy boots, and taker has no way any posture advantage there, the others pics you have jbl besides wearing comboy boots closer to the camera, odd angles etc.
And finally in their ring pic its obvious jbl is looking quite up, and considering taker´s long forehead he has quite some height advantage, there´s no way a man peak 6'7 could pull that out that late in his carer next to someone 6'5 range.
Taker today at 6´7 I might agree, but peak no, he was taller than 6'6 range men even in bigger footware like mabel for example who we saw was around 6'6 1/2 next to a measured football player (forgot his name), and in bigger fotware mabel could stand same height or even edge 6'8 akebono.
My opinion also, sorry for the long post ;)

Ali Baba, kane is not taller than taker, even in their last appearance together with kane in bigger footware, unless taker has lost more height recently.
But doesn´t surprise me taker gives a shorter impression, his big forehead and posture gives him a "shorter" impression.
Does anyone have the better quality video of taker and kane (unabomb) wrestling in smw?
It is offline for quite a while and can´t find it, only a poor quality version is avaiable.

I wonder if there's any pics of Taker and the Klitschko brothers? I know he (Taker) is a huge boxing fan..Think that would be a good reference point. Also on another note, it seems Mark Henry is wearing some serious lifts these days as he appeared notably taller than John Cena on recent shows. Just looking at his boots it looks kinda awkward

Nose tackles are usually shorter than other defensive linemen. I've never met Langston but I can’t imagine someone as short as 5’8” or even 5'9" playing nose tackle at a NCAA Division 1 school.

Well my opinion is that he has got to be between 6'6'' and 6'8'' with the listing above being perhaps most accurate. I recap back to his matches from the 91-93 era. Having pretty much the same amount of height over guys like ramon, tugboat, shango, nailz, crush, kamala, and others. All of these guys are between 6'3'' and 6'5'' with billings up to 6'8''. Look at pics with spivey and sid and even issac yankem aka kane. now sid, spivey, and kane all have had similar billings to taker. ive heard 6'8'' for taker early in his career as well as for sid and spivey. although sid was also billed mostly at 6'9''. kane was mosty at 6'9''. taker was usually 6'8'' but when he became undertaker it was always between 6'8'' and 6'11''. My estimations are sid taker and kane are all between 6'6'' and 6'8'' with kane probably being the tallest. Also look at tyler mane who claims 6'8'' and when he teamed with vinny vegas aka kevin nash. they looked pretty identical to me. if nash is 6'8'', taker has to be about 6'6 1/4'' 6'6 1/2''. if nash is 6'9, taker is around 6'7 1/4'' 6'7 1/2''. look at him with albert from 2001. they were almost identical. so somethings up. monster lifts can easily break someones ankle or even worse in this profession.

Interisting Ali. I had Big E @ 5'9".. Re Taker and Kane, its realy a shocker that you reckon Kane is 1-2" taller.. I really thought theyd be no more than 1 cm apart. Seeing Kane with 6'5" Vin Vaughn really had me thinking he id 6'5" ish hisself... I just cant see Taker @ 6'3 to 6'4".. But then i might be wrong..

H, that's just how a Taker looked to me. I also recently saw Kane from about the same distance (around 12 feet or so) at the RAW taping in Austin (it was taped on Tuesday December 17th because of the holiday schedule), and he looked an inch to two inches taller than Taker did. I was by the entrance ramp 4 seats in and in the 6th row of the ringside. It was actually the back row in that section and some wrestlers passed right by me when they exited. Big E. Langston was neck enough to shake hands with us when he left. Others stayed in character and acted mad when they left. Langston is no taller than 5'9" and might have been as low as 5'8". It one of the reasons he looks so wide (beside the fact that he's huge).

Hey H. Really has two L's. Impossible has two S's, and "noone" is two words. No one... as much as I'm not trying to be rude, don't most computers show a red underline when a word is spelled wrong these days? If you use Chrome, it will. Plus if you are old enough to have a license you REALLY should know how to spell.
I think isolating somebody for their use of the English language, and in fact, insulting them is both inappropriate and slanderous. You also have nothing to contribute to this forum, clearly, except harmful words. Everyone who posts on here deserves respect.
In light of the spirit of this board: H I still think 6'7" to 6'8" is in the high probability:) Only because for the past 23 years, nobody has referred to the Undertaker as anything under. Think about ALL the people who must have met him in that long long time. Somebody would have disputed his height at some point. I just can't see him being under 6'7" even with his age. Again, JUST an opinion. I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday! Ali Baba, thank you for your IMPORTANT imput! I truly hope you get to meet as many of these guys as possible! I'm also incredibly envious!!!:)

I realy am a fanaty about this thing, I see thousands of videos and photos. But this is all imposible, noone can be sure about the height exactly.
My guess:
6´4.5 15% probability
6´5.0 50% probability
6´5.5 30% probability
6´6.0 15% probability
Ali baba and Frank can you play this game of probability pleasure?

Sounds good, Tuga. I really enjoy meeting these guys so it's not a burden for me when I get the opportunity to do so. Kinda makes me wish I had gone into wrestling when I was younger instead of the military. Of course there are more stories of guys who live in poverty chasing that dream than there are big names, so in reality I probably made the right decision.

Fair enough Ali, I do believe you are being honest when you give your opinions, but I know some posters have really abused and you sometimes can get carried away with their comments.
About Triple H there´s absolute no way he is only 2-3 taller when standing tall, even slouching he looks around 4 inches taller, and look again at my pic and you´ll see taker is not even standing that tall, just has better posture than usual.
Here´s another that has taker with decent posture:

Triple H´s boots:

You can view their various videos on youtube including the one where I took this images.
I guess everybody here is looking forward for you to meet nash or other wrestlers, I suggest you tell them they´re shorter than expected to see if them bother to stand tall ;)

In theory if the person taking the picture is standing on the same slope but further down the slope would be nullified in the picture, as long as the slope was at a continuous grade. If the person taking the photo was standing on level ground and only the people in the picture were on the slope then it would definitely make a difference.

Ali Baba said on 3/Dec/13
Tuga, the fact that Frank is behind Taker (rather drastically) is more than enough to make up for that difference. Frank says he was on a slope for the picture, but I have no way of factoring that in since I don't know how much of a slope and if Taker, Pringle or the cameraman were also on the same slope. That makes it impossible to calculate.
And I wasn't disregarding or ignoring the picture you posted of HHH and Taker. However there are far more pictures and videos showing HHH being only 2 to 3 inches shorter than Taker. WWE are experts at working camera angles and staging things to make someone look the size they want them to. I'll go with what I've seen in person over anything on the internet or television any day. I don't think Frank has an agenda here and he seems to be honest in his estimates. I have no issue with others opinions and respect them as long as they are respectful as well. He was closer than me, but not by much. 12 feet is nothing. I know that until I have proof my estimate doesn't mean much. I wish Mane had wrestled longer so there would be something to go off of with him. But oh well. Eventually Nash will hit a convention in my area again and I'll get a picture. I'll post it no matter if it proves me wrong or gives my estimates more validity. Either way this is just a fun little time waster when I'm bored.

Always held Franks comments in high regard. I remember he said he was kinda under welmed (my bwords not his) at Sid Viscious (Eudy's) height. He reckoned 6'5" and change if i am correct. IO always felt Taker was taller by however much.

I remember your pic with him and 6'9 with shoes and 6'8 barefeet matches well your opinion of how tall he looked, and we do have evidence for your own height, I´m sure older posters here remember it well.
Don´t give in to the downgraders, none of them met and took a picture with him like yourself, also as you can see the evidence with taker standing straight is ignored...

Re the pic of Taker towering JBL Freddy posted.. I have never felt Taker wore lifts in his career. I dont think he would be able to do his brilliant in ring style so effectively with them as you just have less control. No bigman wrtestler comes close to Takers in ring abillity. That said, he may have been asked to wear lifts to tower JBL in the interview that night. I think theres alot more fotos out there of them beieng 1-2 inches appart in height than what that 3-4 inch diferent pic suggest.

Jackie Knife,
You are wrong. Listen to stone cold steve austin's podcast where here interviewed Kevin Nash, and Nash states that he was listed as 6'11.25 in college. And if JBL is 6'5.5" which he is according to official NFL records, then Undertaker is in fact around 6'9".

He seemed to be about 6'5" with both of us standing on a flat and even floor. He definitely looks shorter than Tyler Mane, who seemed like he was going to stack up better next to me than he did from the same distance.

i say taker is a little under 6'7 in flats. with the boots is almost 6'8. prime = a weak 6'8 i dont buy the "lifts have 4 inches" how would they walk? 1 inch is about right. JBL is a legit 6'5. taker is about 2 inches taller. Nash said many times he is 6'11 in flats. maybe he is a little under too 6'10 1/2 but he is still huge. in his prime 6'11 -7' Kane isn't much taller then taker. i think he is a weak 6'8. in his peak 6'9 1/2. sid? lol idk probably 6'7 1/2. 6'8 in his prime. show has gotten "smaller" but i think he is under 7' now. in 2001 he said he was 7'1 i believe that. in his peak he was almost 7'2 in WCW.

no, Nash was listed 6'10" in college. and no, Nash was 2 inches taller than Taker in 96. so it's 6'9" - 6'9 1/2 for Kev and 6'7" - 6'7" 1/2 for Take

First of all, Kevin Nash was listed at 6'11.5 when he played college basketball. Take away 1.25" for footwear (basketball sneakers have 1.25" heel) and you have 6'10.25. When he faced the undertaker he looked an inch taller so that puts Undertaker at 6'9.25 or 6'9".

He's not 6'6", why are people even saying this? He's a giant of a man, he's 6'8" to 6'9" on a good day, I used to think he was 6'10", he can get away with looking like that if he's in good shoes but the man is a clear nudge above the 2 meter mark.

Jbl is a solid 6'5, if not flat 6'5 he is a little over, not under, me and other longtime posters have gathered more than enough evidence.

Hmmm. I would say 6'4" minimum. He may be wearing his cowboy boots. Not sure but i'd say they have 2" heels. Also not standing strait. Looks slumping a bit. The pick gives the impression he is 2m exactly (very nearly 6'7") but he probably measures 1,98m (6'6"). Subtracting 2" for heel comes around 193m. Must say thats the minimum i'd give him.

@Tuga "Yes, Jbl eyes don´t lie, he´s looking up alright...Jbl is a 6'5 man, yet some claim this height for taker??"
I'm pretty sure I've heard or read of him being billed as 6'3" after having been billed as 6'6" during the APA gimmick, so he's 6'3" at the most.

Josey,
There are too many variables that affect how we perceive someone's height - stance, posture, picture angle, shoes, levelness of the ground, etc. Unless we actually can measure these guys, we'll be debating forever, but I guess that's what makes this site interesting. To your point, Taker did measure up well to Nathan Jones.

James N, I certainly wont argue you too much on this. He is indeed taller than those people you mentioned. It just mebe they are shorter themselves? I really do not know. The Kane/ Verne Vaughn pick and the pick of Ali (Baba) with Tyler Hamilton posted on here just got me thinking. Taker was also really close to Nathan Jones in Height who personal friends of mine described as "well over 2m".. So yah its an open debate.. I do know when he (Taker) straitens out he is looking impresively tall..

Josey,
Undertaker has always been noticeably taller than guys like JBL, Hulk Hogan, John Tenta, Akeem, etc. who are/were in the 6'4"-6'6" range. Even Test, Vicera, and Albert (Tensai) are all shorter than him. I would still venture a guess of closer to 6'8" than 6'6" and no shorter than 6'7". Undertaker is notoriously known for his bad posture, but when he stands up straight, you can tell he's tall (e.g. he doesn't appear to be more than 5" shorter than the Great Khali, who is over 7').

Having been about 12 feet from Taker and a little closer to Nash there is no way either are as tall as Markus says they are.

To say Taker wore the grey/purple leggings of his Western Mortician Undertaker (my favourite version by the way) is realy naive. It was plain part of his garb. I mean did he not try to to hide the lifters after '96 when he changed his ring dress? Nice find NCL you done it agen!!

To say Undertaker wore his "shincovers" (leggings they are!) to hide his lifters is rubbish!! It was part of his dress to go along with his Western Undertaker persona. He wore that Nov 1990 till Mid 1996 (changing to purple along the way to go fir the more gothic look). That said i estime Taker is 6'5" to 6'6" but whatever it is he edges Sid out by about 2cm i'd say.

I love this site. I love reading and seeing different opinions.
I've worked for WWF/E and WCW as teardown crew since 94'. Yes, they bill the guys as taller. Not insanely taller, but taller. Taker's always been between 6'8" and 6'9", though WWE always billed him as [6'10" 1/2" ]. I can assure you he's every bit of the 6'8" to 6'9" to this day. These are his own words, and I'd take them over anyone else's on this forum considering I'm 6'5". He towers over me. Kevin Nash is a billed 7' when in all honesty, he's 6'10" on the dot. He would tell you the same. YES, Sid wore lifts, bit that's a story in itself. So did Mr. T. I hope this clears up confusion. Go on Youtube and check out Taker's encounter with Gorilla Monsoon (6'6") or even WCW pics with a 6'5" Scott Hall.
Hope this clears up the confusion.
Markus, thank you for sharing! There are a lot of Sid fans here (including myself) would you mind sharing the lift stories? :>)

He's more like 6'8" instead of 6'6". I have no idea why people are saying he is 6'6" nowadays. There's no proof that he's shrunk. He could still be 6'8". When your posture is as bad as his, it can give the illusion that you're shorter than you really are. He obviously would have 5 inches on a 6'2" Triple H is he stood straight.

Another proof from your own site:
When you stated Arnold Schwarzenegger at 6'O";When Lou Ferrigno at 6'2"and then compared with Triple H, Lou appeared 1" taller than Triple H;
That means The Rock is 6'2" it is clearly seen when compared with Triple H,
And AGAIN Lou 6'2" with Hulk hogan who claimed to be 6'3" in your site itself...and that was fine estimation because Hulk Hogan looked an inch taller than Lou Ferrigno...
And now the big Baby:-
Wrestlemania 8 {Hulk Hogan vs Sid Justice} Big Sid Justice{6'6"} is just 2" taller than Than the Hulk..
And her is a big one in {N.W.A} When jerry Lawler call's out Sid Vicious{Lord Humongus} to confrontation against Mean Mark Callous {THE UNDERTAKER} you can clearly manifest an INCH difference between them..
Now, if you Great people are estimating BIG SID AT 6'6".....then where The undertaker Stands???? 100% in WWF The Undertaker used lifts or elevated soles
Think about it......And someone told to mention shaquille o'neal's height it's 6'9" or 10" Max, because i can't see their footwear...FOOTWEAR PLAY A VERY VITAL ROLE IN HEIGHT DISPLAY,THINK ABOUT IT....,THANK YOU.

There's definitely a lot of exaggeration I agree. 'Taker's height is deceiving tho because he has such a long forehead and back of his head (I've brought this up many times, veteran posters here are probably sick of my postings :>)
For example: Click Here
There's probably a good 4" difference there, maybe even 5" if 'Taker actually stands up straight. I think HHH is 6'2" so that would put 'Taker between 6'7"-6'8"

Once again, probably correct. If you look at billed heights for WWE, they almost always add about 2 inches in height to each wrestler. With Undertaker being billed at 6'10", that would likely mean he is closer to 6'8".

It doesnt surprise me that he'd be called 6'7" but it does shock me that Piper would go that far off script. When Taker Debut in Nov 1990 SS, Piper called him "6'9 mebe 6'10" Announcers are scripted to..Yeah youre rite..I think Piper ranted "check out the drum sticks" or something like that when he strolled to the ring.. Man to me that was an awesome moment as a fan..

Thanks James, the pick with Roethlisberger does provide fresh insight..But he looks almost too tall suggesting footwear etc. But i can buy 6'7" for Kane and Taker whom i peg at the same bare-foot height :-)

Also Josey, Kane and the Undertaker are pretty close in height, if not the same height. The problem with wrestler is that some of them wear thicker-soled wrestling boots and/or lifts in their boots. We know that Kane did for sure, and I'm willing to bet that Sid wore lifts in his boots and is probably no more than 6'5"-6'6".

Josey, there is a picture that has been floating around here for awhile of Kane with Ben Roethlisberger, who is legitimately 6'5" and looks to be at least 2-3 inches shorter than Kane in that picture. Kane is certainly 6'7" and probably closer to Rob's 6'7.5" listing.

I for one, as a fan, realy would like to proved wrong on my hight estimtions. Thus far i aint seeng much prove to support 6'8". I dont think alot of people appreciate how tall 6'6" is. Easy to take that along with a large frame and see near seven foot. i honestly cant see a two inch difference in height between the vince vaughn/Kane pic. If you read vince's listing you realise that his height is also debated with some folks giving 6'4". I for one cant see him under 6'5". I d love a better pic of Sid/taker/kane with a 6'5" man though.
somebody mentioned that as a rule people dont shrink in our headsize which i must admit is 1) true and 2) very funny :-) . A 6"8" man will tower a 6'5" man.

I met him in 94 and I'd say 6'8-ish, I've posted the pic on here before. It was after the matches at a hotel, he was very much in character but was also very cool to all the fans as long as you were polite to him. All the wrestlers back then wore cowboy boots with heels.
Maybe lost an inch or more since then.
Still a very tall man,

Kane is taller than Vince Vaugh in that pic, and in any case, you can't let one pic eliminate the fact Kane looks 6'7+ constantly. I agree Kane is probably 6'7 flat, without is monster boots legit 6'7.5-6'8 range Undertaker edges him out, but saying he is 6ft6 max based on one pic is nonsense, especially when the pic is pretty awful for height comparison.

Seen Sid in Street clothes going into Madison Square Garden in the 1990's
He walked right by me and I was with a friend and Sid did not look as tall as I thought he would he appeared 6ft 5 to 6ft 6 and my friend also said he did not tower over me like a 6ft 8 man would. I believe Sid and a lot of these guys wore lifts in there Wrestling Boots

You know, i have to say it gets tiring when people call other folks idiots and such when you post your height estimations. Everybody are entitled to their opinion. Last time around i lowered my height estimations of Taker/Kane and a list of wrestlers quite a bi from my earlier estimates. I beleive on going on eveidence supplied. You only have to look at the pic of 6'5" Verne Vaughn next to Kane to see theyre pretty well matched for height. Ali Babba who claims 6'6" for himselfs looks within an inch of Tyler Mane on the pics he supplied. Now to those kind people who call some estimates laughable, please supply pictures of your own to substantiate your dismissals. Kane and Taker are big men, larger in frame than typical men of same height. But i dont think over 6'6" is plausible. Also remeber that most folk on here are well meaning and post in the name of fun. Dont always see the worst in somebody's intentions.

Hello Reid, offcourse current height for Andre and Studd was silly of me to mention. My stats are based off pics of Ali Baba and Tyler hammilton and pic of Kane and Vernon vaughn together. Unless i see pics of legit measured person and Taker/Kane/Nash together proving they have a clear height advantage/dissadvantage i cant call it else. I am in no way trolling or trying to discredit these guys. Not that you implied that though. Cheers friend :-)

I've met Undertaker at an autograph session and I'm 6'5 and he was about at least three inches taller then me, I should have kept playing ball after highschool and into college. But with that being said, how can he only be 6'7 when he is taller then me by that margin?????

About to shock myself with the following estimations btu i have given this alot of thought and looked at pics posted aswell as try to study these guys on tv. The following heights are what i beleive to be currently correct . No idea what prime heights wouldve been. The "Tall" Wrestlers are often not near their billed height, but often compared to other celebs/athletes of simmilar height have a more heavy built. (excluding guys like Andre and and Show who may not be true seven footers but has a definite giantism to them)
Undertaker 6'5'5"
Kane 6'5'5"
Sid 6'5"
Big Show 6'9"
Khali 6'11"
Kevin Nash 6'7"
Kurgan 6'7"
Hulk Hogan 6'3"
JBL 6'4"
Randy Orton 6'2"
The Rock 6'1 1/2"
John Cena 6'0"
Andre the Giant 6'9"
Big John Studd 6'5"
I think the only wrestler to truly be over sevenfoot was Giant Conzales who id give around 7'5"

Taker looks like he has Mike by up to 9-10 inches here putting him in the 6'6.5 to 6'7.5 range respectively I think. I doubt Taker is lower than 6'6 which some claim.

I would say closer to 6'10 when he was at his peak, maybe 6'8 1/2 barefoot and in boots 6'9 1/2 to 6'10. These days with age and injuries I would say 6'7 3/4 barefoot and around 6'9 in boots. He never looked shorter from his billed height.

6'7 prime, 6'7 today. He was barely taller than Sid Eudy, who was a weak 6'7 himself.
He might have lost 0.25' but that's it, there is no visible height loss/proof.

The Undertaker is 6'10". He has lost some height now, but in his prime and peak, he was a weak 6'10", and that is tops. He is shorter than The Big Show who is a proven 7'1", and far shorter than The Great Khali who was realistically listed at 7'3" at an Indian Bodybuilding event. Also, he does wear boots that would realistically give him about 1.5-2 Inches, based on the sole, and the sleeve.

Dan Spivey is brought up a lot here in regards to Undertaker's height b/c he's around 6'6" and in some photos looks the same height as Undertaker. Pause here at 8:49 Click Here he has a good footwear advantage over 'Taker.
You can see 'Taker's boots at 6:55 or so when he walks the ropes

Undertaker is a weak 6'7" or that height in the morning. The security guard in our store got a great shot of him and the undertaker staring eye to eye and he's spot on 6'6". He said there boots were pretty similar.
Khali 7' and a half inch at the most.
Show 6'11" of anybodies money
Undertaker 6'6.5" in the afternoon mostly likely
Kane a strong 6'7" is likely.

I don't know what live show he's referring to. As far as I know Undertaker disappeared from WWE appearances after Wrestlemania in 2012 and didn't pop up again until he was in Waco on February 23, 2013 (which is where I saw him).

If you pause at 21 seconds, you can see 'Taker has on a boot and the other guy is barefoot. I'm guessing 'Taker has a 1.5"-2" footwear advantage (also see 40 seconds, the other guy has shoes on there)

Me and a friend went to a live show in late 2012. I'm 6'2 and my friend is 6'5. Undertaker was there signing autographs and so was Kane. As they stood up for me to take of a picture of him with them, Undertaker had a good 2 and a half to 3 inches on him, and Kane about 3.5-4.
Undertaker = 6'7.5-6'8.
Kane = 6'8.5-6'9

been watching Taker more intensely lately. He realy gives me the impression of a 2m (6'7") tall man. Definetly not 6'10" but not under 6.6" aswell. Was actuallyu funny watching him work with CM Punk this WM. You could see how much larger a man he is and how easily he "manhandled" Punk. Credit to Punk for his work though.

I was simply pointing out that the picture is not a good one to judge height off of at all. In reality we know JBL is taller than McMahon, but there is nothing in that picture to show he is not. They all appear to be side by side.

Here's a good one of 'Taker and HHH from WM 28:
Click Here (if the link isn't direct it's PIC 35 OF 42)
No fancy camera angles here IMO. Now at first glance it doesn't look like Undertaker is much taller. But he's practically bald in the pic and we can see the top of his head.
I think if someone would draw a line, HHH would come up to about the very tip top or just below the tip top of Undertaker's ear. You can see how long Undertaker's forehead is and how big the back of his head juts up which has to be taken to account.
I say there's around a 4"-5" difference and if 'Taker stood fully straight, his head is bent down a bit in the pic, I'd put it at a 5"-6" difference
I've always been a proponent of Undertaker being 6'8", at least at peak, but I've always been very open to him being as low as 6'7" now. If you've been watching Raw he looks around the same height as Kane even with Kane's footwear advantage. Kane's got to be 6'9" in his boots (6'7.5" barefoot IMO)
I think Triple H is around 6'2" or 6'2.5"
Here's their footwear from the match: Click Here (PIC 36 OF 42)
Maybe one of you guys who are good at photoshop can draw a line and/or straighten their necks
Let the debates begin! :>)

Undertaker is not under 6'5 in 2013, and he is definitely not more than 6'6 in 2013 either.
6'6.75 peak. 6'5.25 now. Most people who judge Undertaker's height looks at pictures when he is in the ring, but pictures when he is outside the ring tells alot more about his height. There are also many WWE-fans who have seen him in real life, and all were so shocked how much shorter he is in real life. Most people have said they think Undertaker is between 6'5-6'6. Some people have even said 6'4, but that's too low. He is maybe 6'4 in 15 years.

The undertaker didn't look much taller than HHH at this years wrestlemania. He looked about the same height Hulk Hogan did compared to HHH in 2001/2002 or whenever it was and HHH would've shrunk since then so I'm thinking Undertaker cant possibly be 6'7.5 anymore. He must be a little over 6'4. Maybe about 6'4.65 or so.

Interisting to look at the pics king nick posted. If you get out of the how tall are they mould, it looks to me that Taker measures up bit better to Khali than Kane, It looks like his skull is at khali's eyebrow while Kane struggles to reach that. And Kane is really stretching hisself back arched etc. Also it looks Khali and Shaq is the same height. He is however a much larger man if you consider how his hands are almost dwarfing Shaqs in girth. Same with Show. Clearly shorter but much heavier built, even in that stupid purple suit he weared at the time. Shaq is a BIG man but Khali and and Show better fits the giant bill.

Meathedz if your estimates are correct, than it's not just wrestling that exaggerates heights. Every type of media apparently exaggerates heights too: basketball, football, soccer, golf, tennis, actors & actresses, tv-hosts, etc.
Apparently basketball and football are equally as bad as wrestling, considering many wrestlers have tried their hands in those sports, before becoming a wrestler and got height listings which were not that far off from their billings in wrestling.
Big Show was listed 7'1" in basketball (a 5" exaggeration according to you)
Kevin Nash was listed 6'10" in basketball (a 3" exaggeration according to you)
Matt Bloom (Albert) was listed 6'6" in baskettball, considering he's shorter than The Undertaker that must be an exaggeration as well. I won't even go to K-1 fighters as Jan Nortje was listed at 6'11" as a fighter and he was shorter than Matt Bloom.
Yes, many wrestlers have their heights exaggerated in the WWE, but not nearly as much as you claim. If that were the case than that would've been pretty obvious when many of those wrestlers stood next to athletes from the NFL or NBA. And those 2 sports even list their athletes measurements through draft and combine reports. I guess those measurements are fake too. --------------
If you weren't cherry picking posts to respond to, you would see that I revised Big Show on my list to 6'10" after Ali Baba weighed in on it. The rest of it seemed about right according to him, who I consider a LOT more credible than the other posters here. He’s a cop who has posted photos of himself WITH Pro Wrestlers and other celebrities too. He is willing to PROVE what he tells you, and his motive is simply being fed up with seeing obvious exaggerations waved in his face.
That list would make the NCAA listings about 3 inches taller than real afternoon barefoot height of many of the wrestlers who did both. Yes I do believe it is COMMON for the NCAA to add on 3 inches to players barefoot height. The NBA is well known for exaggerating too. Being height is a major factor in Basketball, yeah the NBA, and NCAA will exaggerate. I even worked with a man who played NCAA Basketball who let me in on the teams exaggerating a lot, and said the NBA does it too.
You do get what I am saying. We ARE seeing a consistent pattern in ALL forms of media exaggerating people. Athletes, Actors, and being Pro Wrestling is Acting AND Athletic, it should not be a shock they would exaggerate as much as they can get away with. Fact is size sells, and everyone wants their heroes to be larger than life. Should it be any shock they exaggerate their height (and weight)?
I’ve heard the personal testimony of other tall men I know, who have met Pro-Wrestlers, and they all give the same account: “They weren’t as tall as I thought they would be, but they are still have massive muscles!”
I KNOW guys who played NCAA football, and accounts of their weight and weight being exaggerated to the point they would joke about it.
This is consistent with what Ali Baba has been trying to get across for a while on this site. People argue with him, even though he has photos of himself with enough Pro-Wrestlers and celebrities to make the point they exaggerate a lot.
When people use the height listing of one exaggerated source to support the listing of another, then it gets silly if they are ALL exaggerated. You cannot use one exaggerated source to substantiate another.

IMO Taker is and always has been 6'7 range, it's not impossible he's lost a little height, but he still looks just as tall as he ever did next to the same guys he stood next to in the 90's.

Khali, by the way, is the same height as 7'1" Shaq
Oh, and here's Undertaker's boots at the time:

I can't figure out if the height degraders here are just having fun or really believe all what they're saying. Look, everyone's entitled to their opinion. And wrestling does exaggerate heights. But it doesn't appear to me that every case is the same as Andre the Giant's where heights are exaggerated 4-5", that was a rare case. Generally, I'd say there's a 1"-3" exaggeration depending on the wrestler.
If you guys are so insistent otherwise, posts some photos to prove it.
By the way, to the wrestling fans on this site - I live in Jersey and will be going to Wrestlemania this Sunday! Now I'm going to be sitting pretty much in the sky so I don't think I'll get any pics for height comparisons at least during the show but I'll see if I can get a few shots of the arena to post here and if I happen to meet a wrestler before or after at a signing or something and get a good height comparison you'll see it here!

i met taker numerous times over the past 10 years (last time was november 2009 day before the live raw show in msg where he tagged with cena against dx and jericho/big show) and every time he was wearing sneakers and looked taller than 6'5, the numerous doors in my house are 6'6 so i know what that height looks like

Meathedz if your estimates are correct, than it's not just wrestling that exaggerates heights. Every type of media apparently exaggerates heights too: basketball, football, soccer, golf, tennis, actors & actresses, tv-hosts, etc.
Apparently basketball and football are equally as bad as wrestling, considering many wrestlers have tried their hands in those sports, before becoming a wrestler and got height listings which were not that far off from their billings in wrestling.
Big Show was listed 7'1" in basketball (a 5" exaggeration according to you)
Kevin Nash was listed 6'10" in basketball (a 3" exaggeration according to you)
Matt Bloom (Albert) was listed 6'6" in baskettball, considering he's shorter than The Undertaker that must be an exaggeration as well. I won't even go to K-1 fighters as Jan Nortje was listed at 6'11" as a fighter and he was shorter than Matt Bloom.
Yes, many wrestlers have their heights exaggerated in the WWE, but not nearly as much as you claim. If that were the case than that would've been pretty obvious when many of those wrestlers stood next to athletes from the NFL or NBA. And those 2 sports even list their athletes measurements through draft and combine reports. I guess those measurements are fake too.

I'm a big wrestling-fan and Undertaker is DEFINITELY not more than 6'6 in 2013. He is in the 6'5-range in 2013. And he have shrunk about 1.5 - 2 inches. He have been like 6'6.75, but not more than that. Undertaker looks about the same height as JBL who I think is a legit 6'5.
Undertaker's height in 2013 is between 6'4.75 - 6'5.25. 6'5.5 absolute MAX.

@Ali Baba, thanks for that info. I've revised Big Show on my list then, to 6'10" being possible. I could see Noah having underestimated him in person too, as a result of Big Show's often less than perfect posture. I remember back in WCW they were saying he was a whopping 7'4" lol!

So many Marks in here right now.
You call anyone a troll for not believing what the Carnies have to say about their height.
I don't believe Taker has ever been over 6'5".
He's been part of Wrestling for a long time, knows WHY they exaggerate, just like everything else to seem larger than life. He is also a Biker and wears biker boots in public most of the time.
I'm not saying he's a bad person for exaggerating, that is part of the culture of the industry he works in. To make everything seem larger than life.
I see him as a method Actor, who's character is supposed to be close to seven foot tall.

Actually I don't have any real issues with Meathedz list other than Show is not as low as 6'8" He's more 6'9" to 6'10" in my opinion. I got more of a 6'10" feeling for him though. Nash could be around 6'7" but no more.

Nobody has ever showed a 6'11'' Khali listing before. Always 7'1'' officially and he was loosely measured 7'3'' in sneakers for Big Brother.

The old WSM guys were exaggerated too. I don't know about the current competitors, but Svend Karlsen he did not even look 6ft tall when I saw him at the Arnold Classic back in 2002. Massive, for sure, but not any 6'2". Based on that Magnus Samuelsson might be exaggerated and so to would have been Nathan Jones, and he might easily only be 6'6" or 6'7".
My list:
Khali: 6'11"
BigShow: 6'9" Prime, maybe as short as 6'8" these days
Jones: 6'7"
Nash: 6'7" Prime, even shorter now
Morgan: 6'6"
Sid: 6'5"
Kane: 6'5"
Undertaker: 6'5"
Hogan: 6'4" Prime, even shorter now
Rob Terry: 6'3"
The Rock: 6'2"
Batista: 6'2"
HHH: 6'1"
Brock Lesnar: 6'1"
My best estimates, to within an inch of their actual height.
Ali Baba, I'd like to see you weigh in on that list, and correct any if I'm wrong. Also, have you met any strongman competitors or other famous athletes like Basketball players who were shorter than claimed?
Also, thank you for using your rare stature as a valuable measuring stick to help us set the record straight on all the silly exaggerations. I know you take a lot of heat on this site, but in my mind what you have to say holds every bit as much credibility as what Rob or Mamun say, + the fact you are in a better position to measure up to the taller guys.

I have found that bodybuilding mags are less prone to exagrate heights. Mebe becuase most top bodybuilders are less than 6'. I have read listings in there for Nash @ 6,9" (at thge time he was in WWF and billed 7'. Also that they called Dalip Singh @ 6'11" the worlds largest bodybuilder as opposed to Dorian Yates who was Mr Olympia at the time.) I can buy a 7' Dalip and 6'9" Nash. Show somewher around 6'11". Taker/Kane/Sid all around 6'6-6'7". Remember the piscs of Mamum who said he's 5'8" with these guys? They sure looked all @6'^" or more. btw what happened to Mamum?...

While Robs listed heights cant be taken as the gospel, with all respect, im sure he wont be off by inches as are beieng posted by some of you. Opinions are like noses, everybody has one. I get it. But unless somebody got some substantial proof to put a certain individual at 3-4 plus inches shorter than Robs listing, mebe you should rethink your posts and what you want to accomplish.
