Her is much shorter than the 5'10 Mike Tyson
james said on 18/Dec/11
He is 5'9.5 AT LEAST, 5'11 AT MOST, most likely 5'10 barefoot, but he looks 5'8 - 5'9 because he has really small proportions, very skinny, very small not broad shoulders, and had HORRIBLE POSTURE, he was also surrounded by people that were in the 6'1 to 6'5 range almost ALWAYS.

just GOOGLE 2pac inmate picture id! It says 5'11 (most likely in shoes)= 5'10 barefoot
Iggy said on 25/Nov/11
Pac was for sure 5´10-5´11 becasue near Wood Harris who is 188-190cm he didnt less than that
the shredder said on 21/Nov/11
I agree that he was at least 5'10 , look at him with Rourke ... Rourke 5'11 needs to be listed 5'10 then lol .
Makaveli777 said on 18/Nov/11
there is no way he is shorter than 5' 10" he looked the same height as james belushi who is 5' 11". looks about 5-6 inches smaller than 6' 4" snoop dogg and about 4 inches shorter than 6' 2-3" suge knight.
the shredder said on 16/Nov/11
Rob , do you think he could have been over 5'10 ? ... He was the same height as 5'11 Mickey Rourke and not shorter then Omar Epps .
Editor Rob
I'd be surprised if he ever was that tall

I could buy 5'10" but 6' is ridiculous.

i dont believe 2pac was 5'7" his wife when she said that you can tell she was guestimating .he was taller then 5'7 theirs pictures of him standing next to dr dre who 6'1 and he looks to be almost the same height so i'm gonna go with the 5'10/11ish ..also in 94 pac was what 23/24 ?..you dont stop growing till almost 30..people tend to forget 2pac was just a kid
CLC said on 23/Oct/11
Pac was exactly 5'10 and weighed 170lbs before he died in 96'. I've personally asked a friend who was close to him before the time of his death.
shawnna said on 5/Oct/11
tupac amaru shakur was 5'9. and about 165lbs he wasn very big but his words were powerful
Viper said on 2/Oct/11
LOL, he was not 5-10 or 5-11.

He didnt look any taller than 5-9 physically and he looked no taller than that with 6-2 Suge Knight.
Leo said on 29/Sep/11
Rob: I was sure he was 5ft 7. Your description has 3 different heights? Are you estimating 5ft 9 or is this accurate? Thanks
Manda said on 26/Sep/11
He was a few inches taller than his 5'7" model gf Kidada. look up ics with them together. He was at least 5'10". Also his police pic says 5'11" so im guessing it's right.
Sean said on 26/Sep/11
I noticed that notorious big isnt listed on here and every other website says he was 6'3. I do not believe that at all he looks 6 foot maybe 6'1 does anyone else agree with me? He always looked about 2 to 2 and a half inches taller than 5'10.5 p diddy

2Pac was definitely 5' 7". He was much shorter than 5' 10" Mike Tyson.
tell-em said on 2/Sep/11
something's not right about that article. 5'7", 165lbs? lol. pac was skinny. at 5'7" he wouldn't weigh 165 lbs. he was 5'9".
gstyle said on 1/Sep/11
ok lets get this, i'm not sure what height to give pac but in the film juice especialy in the scene where the are walking to the bar to get ciggerettes and when he is tying his laces..he looks pretty short like 5,7...then in above the rim he looks short in the green shirt when he is waiting for his brother (not comparing him to shep) another thing people look tall..depends on their body structure...pac had low shoulders but a high/long kneck cus he was slim. i have frieds who appear taller than me but when i stand next to them my shoulders are above their shoulders but their head is same height as mine or shorter. certain frames make u look taller...tupac weighlifted and worked his delts and traps so muscles seem to make his shoulders 'droop' low. study his posture and his physique. he was a shortish lad but appeared tall cus of his slim size. real talk.

In an Interview with source magazine back in '96 the journalist said he was 5'6. Years later, source magazine interviewed his ex wife and she reiterated that he was not tall and was 5'7.
Reality said on 23/Jul/11
he was 5'11 (mugshot).
the truth said on 10/Jul/11
he was 5'10''. like barely maybe 5'9.75''. look at him compared to other people. the autopsy is fake.

In the movie Juice, Tupac was shorter than 5'10 Omar Epps.
toby said on 29/May/11
not as small as most people think

I reckon about 5'10(178 cm).
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/May/11
Not 5"11(180cm) but he could've been close to 5"10 like 177cm
cap said on 3/May/11
To those people saying that 2 pacs height at his autopsy was measured at six foot because his spine was straightend .
If thats true then that would be his true height.
In life a lot of people have a stooped kind of posture and don't hold themselves striaght which will make a person look shorter than they really are.
Your true height is the height you are when your spine is straightened .
Also pac hung out with a lot of tall people a lot of people in movies look shorter than they really are because most of the rest of the cast are taller.
most official sources have pac as being between 5 10 and six foot he was at least S feet 10 and possibly up to 6 foot.

BigDave dickhead, do some background research ,scientist have confirmed that men still grow into their 20s,of course your pivotal growth spurt occurs during your teenage years but its a fact that you still grow all the way into your 20s,whether your tall over 6ft or not.
Viper said on 21/Mar/11
I don't think anybody would consider anything taller than 5'9 short

You mean 5-8.
Jim S said on 19/Mar/11
I would say 5'8 to 5'9, with examples:
In an interview used in "Tupac Resurrection", he refered to Mike Tyson as big, and himself as small. He was lean but he was muscular, I don't think he was small girth-wise, so I think he was referring to himself as short. I don't think anybody would consider anything taller than 5'9 short.

Rapper Spice 1, a good friend to Tupac, referred to Tupac as short in an interview, and Spice 1 describes himself as 6 foot or 6'1 depending on the song.

Watch Gridlock'd and see what he looks like next to allegedly 5'7 Tim Roth.

Just my 0.02.
warren said on 17/Mar/11
does it really matter how tall tupac was all that matters is hes a legend in the world music all u people are sad to argue about the height of differant rappers its not important on there height :/
younghustla said on 11/Mar/11
everybody stop talking about tupac looking tall with boots im 6' 1/8 barefoot and with my construction boots im 6'1 .25/4.00 and almost 1 inch does not make you "taller than other people on pictures". the average height of a man 16 and up is 5'9 .25/4 and in all of tupacs pictures(with people around his height) he is about 1 to 2 inches taller than them which makes him about 5'10 5'11
Big Dave MD said on 11/Mar/11
RealView you fool. Vertical growth ceases around 21 years of age on average. Rarely it continues for a year more but this is usually when the individual is of abnorally large height already (>6 ft 3) eg. Dennis Rodman. So no there is no such thing as a young adult growth spurt unless you mean the late teenge growth spurt.
RealView said on 9/Mar/11
You dudes crack me up, pac was most likely around 5'11 or 6 ft. The fact they recorded him at 6ft on his autopsy would mean he probably was even taller in his later days. Not from your spine being compressed after death,in fact in death I would imagine one to be much shorter.You have to remember you still grow slightly after 21 all the way to 26. So Pac must've had his young adult growth spurt.
curtis said on 25/Feb/11
i believe he is 5.9" to 5.10" tall.
J said on 16/Feb/11
I have read everyone's comments and looked at everyone's pictures, and I have to say Tupac looks to be around 5'10" or 5'9". We all have to remember that Tupac looks tall in some pictures, because he was wearing lifts (boots that make people appear tall). Who cares what his mugshot read, because Mugshots just go off of what the driver's license reads. My license says I'm 6'3", but I am really a solid 6'1.5".

tupac isnt 5,11 he was shorter than 5,10 Mike Tyson 5,9 or 5,8 is right for him.

Cam said on 6/Feb/11
This is crazy. Unlike most people on here guessing tupacs height I have actually met the dude back in 1996 when I was 19 years old. I was 6,2 at the time and pac looked at least 6.0 with jordans on. So 2pac's height was 5'11/5'10 barefoot. Why would you downgrade him to 5'9 when his mugshot says 5'11 and his autopsy said 6ft why would the police lie lol ?

Upgrade him to 5'11/5'10

you guys laughs. 2pac was 5'9". he looked 5'10" because 99.9% of the time he was in boots. he was the same height as 5'9" jamie foxx. barely if at all taller than 5'8" stephen baldwin. watch the making of california love video. easily 3 inches shorter than 6'0" dr. dre and they were in the same footwear. suge knight is 6'2". those pics of him n snoop are terrible becuz snoop is in the back.
Suge isn't 6'2'' said on 17/Dec/10
@ all the epople who think Suge knight is 6'2'', look at picture of him wih snoop dogg. The are the same height,Snoop Dogg is 6'4' so Suge is also 6'4''.

Same height as Snoop Dogg (6'4'')

This proves comparative height varies with different circumstances but I think 2pac was 5'10'' most of the time, he was in fact TALLER than Omar epps in juice despite the fact many say Omar epp is taller.

2pac with a 5'11'' (or 5'10" or 5'10.5" in other sources)Puffy.
Puffy wiht a ht on comes up to 2pac's eyebrows, however he is leaning so this proves 2pac is taller thn P. diddy which means he is at least 5'11'' or maybe Puffy is shorter than what he claims.

2pac with a 6'3'' biggie and a 5'11'' puffy.
anonymous said on 5/Dec/10
2pac claimed to be 5'10''. His driver's license says 5'10''. When measured in Jail he was 5'11'' (with shoes). Autopsy result was 6 ft because
1) your taller laying down
2) his spine was fully stretched out.

Click Here

In this video 2pac is clearly two inches taller than two of the members of metallica, one inch taller than one and about 3 inches shorter than the other.
The two memebers he is 2 inches taller than are 5'8''. The member he is an inch taller than is 5'9''. The man he is 3 inches shorter than is 6'1'' which all averages out to 5'10''.
Also in the video snoop dogg towers over 2pac, snoop dogg is 6'5''. and when you are 7 inches taller than someone you definately tower over them. Add in the fact his hat is on giving him another 4 inches on 2pac and thats almost a whole foot over 2pac.
2pac wasn't very tall, but he wasn't very short either. He was less than an inch over average height.

anonymous said on 18/Nov/10
2pac was known to wear big boots with heels, which is probably why he claimed 5'11" and why some ppl mistaked his height as 5'10" 5'11". he was the same height as 5'9" jamie foxx. here he is w/ 6'0" dr. dre: Click Here pac is closer to the camera and has the footwear advantage, but good pic nonetheless.
Anonymous said on 7/Nov/10
Compare him to people closer to height not suge. And btw I'm 5'11'' and I come up to the top of my 6'2'' friend's nose. 2pac comes up to the top of 6'2'' Suges nose too. 2pac was taller than Diddy, puffy, puff daddy, whatever. Puff daddy is 5'10.5'' which means he can't be 5'9''. He was a little shorter than 5'11 1/2'' Mike tyson meaning he can't be 6'0''. He was same height as Omar epps in Juice, who is 5'10''. He is much taller than 5'7'' Tim Roth. He was shorter than a 6'0'' Jim Belushi. He was a little taller than 5'9'' Jaimie Foxx. This means hes at least 5'9'' and 5'11'' MAX. I'd say he's 5'10'' which is what he claimed to be, measured 5'11'' in Jail, but he probably had shoes on, and 6'0'' at death but he was laying down so hes taller.



5'10''
Female said on 21/Oct/10
On board it does say 5'11", I was blown away having been in love with this lil' shortie, so I turned to YOUTUBE, watching GANG RELATED with JIM BELUSHI, he's shorter than Belushi, there's a fighting, wrestling scene. Tupac is 1 -2 inches shorter.
RisingForce said on 4/Jul/09
I watched Juice the other day and for some reason I had remembered 2pac shorter than Omar Epps. But both were wearing boots and about the same height throughout the movie. I'd bet he was atleast 5'9". He didn't look more than 4 inches shorter than Samuel L. Jackson in that movie, but I don't think Jackson wore boots.
LaTiNo_HeAt said on 24/Jun/09
2pac is probably just as tall if not 0.5 cm shorter then 5/9 jamie foxx in this video.

Anonymous said on 20/Jun/09
Since Tupac was only 1 inch taller than 5-7 max Glenn, Id give him 5-8 at best. Wouldnt be surprised If he was as low as 5-7 as well. 5-10 is LAUGHABLE, LOL!!

There is no way he's 5'9... A solid 5'10.

Yeah he 5'9" ... about 5'10" when he wearing boots. He ain't no 5'11" and not that short neither. Jamie Fox is 5'9" and they match up in height in that youtube vid of living color episode... so definitely 5'9" man.
Rick said on 25/May/09
He wears boots alot, in juice he was wearing boots, im sure in above the rim he was wearing boots. His height is a tricky thing, one scene he looked about same height as duane martin, in other scene he looked about 2-2.5 inches shorter. id say 5'9 though

RisingForce said on 10/Apr/09
He usually wore boots so 5'9" sounds right. He has the proportions of a 5'9" guy. I agree Glenn, I liked him a lot as an actor, but I'm not much of a rap fan so his music wasn't as interesting to me. Obviously for rap fans he was among the best.

thanks matt.i never really had a conversation with him.i mightve asked him what he was doing in town in the above photo.thats about it.he was always polite.i have to hand it to him on that.he ran with a tough crowd,not surprisingly.yet always spoke nicely to me.
Matt L said on 28/Feb/09
Hey Glenn, cool photo. I'm so jealous, seriously. I wish i had the opportunity you have had. Luckyyyyy.

I am curious, you have said he was approachable and sometimes turned you down for photos in a group but going past that, did you ever have a quick chat to him and did he seem interested or did he just want to get away and keep going about what he was doing? Thanks

Pac said he was 5'8.
the squirell said on 12/Jan/09
I'm beginning to see 5'10 as his height. I said he looked taller in the 'I A'int Mad at cha' music video, but now i'm thinking maybe he wanted to look taller so appeared taller. Then again, he looks about 5'8 in the movie, 'Above The Rim' and in his later movies he looks taller. Maybe he was still gowing at the time of his death as he was listed at 6ft. Indeed he could possibly been a late developer. They say 21 is the age you start to come to the end of your growth but for people like tupac they are still growing. Some believe you are not a fully grown man until you are 25. And this could possibly be true for tupac.
glenn said on 10/Jan/09
i know who big syke is.never saw him.i dont doubt tupac being 5-10.but if you think he could sometimes look taller,you have to admit he sometimes looked shorter.
the squirell said on 8/Jan/09
tupac is actually 5'10. However, on other days he can look taller, possibly 5'11. Indeed he looks 5'11 in the 'I A'int mad at cha' music video'. But i don't think he was 6ft. Also, one of friends called big syke aka Mussolini was roughly 6'3, or maybe a shade under. Kadafi was 6'3.
glenn said on 7/Jan/09
he is wearing big boots.while i agree 5-10 is possible,5-9 is more likely.watch him in the behind the scenes footage with jim belushi and tell me he doesnt look 5-8? in the movie he looked 5-10.same scenes.film made him taller,video footage he was smaller.bizzare.

Tupac is easly 5ft 10. He looks 2 ins taller than glen and hes slouching lol.
Greedy_Genius said on 2/Jan/09
If you look at where his head ends next to Glen it would be safe to say that he's 5'9" and not an inch taller.
Matt09 said on 2/Jan/09
To solve this once and 4 all 2pac is 5'9 1/2 in the pic on getty images.com he is an inch taller than steven baldwin and steven is 5'9 solid and if pac were wearing any healed shoes steven prolly was wearing something close so i give pac 5'9 1/2. He has long arms so I think that helps him appear a little taller. LOL who knows.
LOOKS LIKE he's 5'10 id give him 5'10 max and 5'9 minimum.

2pac is listed as 5'10 on both his CA driver's license and coroner's report.

I think he's 5'10. If you draw a line on the top of his head, it's about 2in taller than Glenn who is 5'8. The top of his head ends exactly about 2in over Glenn.

deivid-its very possible tupac was 5-10.omar is 5-10.in the behind the scenes footage of the belushi movie,tupac looks a shocking 5-8 next to belushi.so,thats back to the 5-9 theory.

Claudio says on 15/Nov/08
Tupac could have been 5ft 11 as he was not more then 2 inces shorter then 6ft 1 dr dre. He was also the same height as mickey rourke and just a tad shorter then james belushi who is between 5ft 11 and 6ft. Tupac was 5ft 10 bare foot minimum.

dr. dre is 6'0...and who knows what kinda footwear him and 2pac had on that day
S.P said on 20/Nov/08
ROURKE HAD @ LEAST 3 INCHES ON PAC. I BELIEVE PAC WAS 5'9 BAREFOOT, 5'10 RIGHT FOOTWARE!! PAC WAS THE BEST GUY THAT EVER LIVED.

Hi Glenn..Every body is confused about tupac height. In this photo looks 5
glenn said on 12/Nov/08
i bumped into him many times in the street.this was the only time he posed.he was nice but would turn down the photo request if he was in a posse.sometimes i didnt ask.i have another,taken seconds before this.no peace sign.
love 2pac said on 11/Nov/08
hey glenn where and when did u made this picture ??? just noisy
glenn said on 11/Nov/08
well,that was my fathers jacket in the pic.i would imagine it was large.not more.it was loose on me.i was really skinny above.probably 140lbs to 150lbs.now im 190lbs.i fit in medium and large shirts perfect.always did strangely.
racker said on 11/Nov/08
hi glenn, tupac was 5ft 11
what's your jacket size ? maybe XL, i just want to estimate how big was 2pac.
thank you
glenn said on 10/Nov/08
racker-repeat that again,i dont understand if you are still there.id love to answer you.
glenn said on 10/Nov/08
londoner93-tupac was between 5-8 and 5-10.most likely 5-9.so he was kinda average.the shorter side of average.celebs are people too and have insecurities just like us.and of course they are different to us on other levels.i never heard anything about his height until you brought this to my attention which i appreciate greatly.celeb men can wear hidden lifts in their footwear,yet this is somewhat exaggerated.most here think 90-100 percent of the shorter to average celeb men do.i think its closer to 25-30 percent.
Brad said on 10/Nov/08
5' 9". He got toasted by the Rollin 60's Crips down by the Arco Station where I get the cheap gas by the Howard Hughes Center in Vegas. He, like Eazy, didn't care about his height, he had the loot and rep.
racker said on 2/Nov/08
hi glenn,
tupac really was 5.11 , it is true from the prison's archives
sry for little off-top, what's your jacket size ?
thanks
glenn said on 30/Oct/08
just got too short.5-7 is about right.luther was also at same event and as usual he seems to sneak out.got fresh kid ice(5-7) brother marquis (5-10) from 2 live crew weeks after that luther mess up.luther isnt standing straight in that photo.he is constantly mentioned at 6-3.i buy nothing smaller than 6-2 for him.

u can debate this but I can tell u right now that his exact height and weight at the time of his death was 5-8.5 tall 168 pounds thats is as close as it gets not 6-0, not 5-11, 5-8.5 trust me footwear can alter any ones height

No. i believe you...he always looked short...plus he was towered by snoop at the mtv music awards in 1996 (getty images)

i think pac was 5'9-5'9.5...look at him next to mickey rourke and 5-10 mc hammer who was about an inch taller than pac
Simon said on 16/Sep/08
Pac looked short because he was always with by big dudes...based on a video where I saw him standing near a studio door, I am sure that he wasn't 5'8...So around 5'10 or 5'11 would be more plausible...interior doors are the best way to find someone's height.
mee said on 23/Aug/08
I read all this comment, but guys Glenn is not 5ft8 so mybe 2 pac isnt 5ft9 either...

TELLEM said on 21/Jul/08
lol snoop is taller than suge knight
Angie said on 16/Jul/08
matt, suge knight is actually 6'4 and snoop is 6'3
tupac sorta looks like he might be 5'11 in the pic with all three of them.

had he stood straight in this pic though, tippy top of his head could've been 5'10 1/2 at most.
matt09 said on 10/Jul/08
even if he did stand up strait its not gonna make a whole hell of a difference because tupac is at most 5'10 1/2 at least 5'9 1/2. Pac is leaning but ive took pics of friends standing by me and im about 5'10 and there like an inch shorter than me and i have slouched like he is in the pic and then i stood strait and that was not a big of a difference he is 5'10 and he is not 6'0 tall look at the pics of him with suge and snoop and there is a big diff if he was six foot tall he would look as tall as suge but 2 or so inches shorter wich in this pic isnt much of a difference.
Danzel said on 8/Jul/08
2pac was 1.78 cm tall.look at this vid Click Here on this site u wrote that jamie foxx is 1.75 but in this vid he has a hat on his on his head wich makes him taller and still 2pac looks a little taller then him and on glenn's pic 2pac is not standing straight...2pac was 1.78 end of story.
dean said on 6/Jul/08
he was 5'9 ok and dats dat rip tupac shakur
JT said on 23/Jun/08
Nah, he wasn't 6ft. He looked bigger at times but he was a solid 5'9.
Carolina said on 20/Jun/08
He looks about 5'9 1/2.
Wow you met 2pac though. I wish I could of met him, I was only 3 when he passed away:( Many people say he was tough. Was he nice to you when you spoke to him?
dits said on 19/Jun/08
jordan,you can try the 'height request' page.

suge knight was about 6'3 though,seemed just a tad shorter than snoop back in the day.he just proves that he was all muscle,and no brains though.been strugglin' ever since pac died.
Jordan said on 18/Jun/08
Yeah 5,9 Seems PERFECT for this. You know what you im curious I wanna have a artical bout Suge Knight's Height on hear is there anyway to add a artical on here?
JD said on 11/Jun/08
id probably give him 5'9.5, i think 5'8 is completley out of question anyway, great picture glenn
glenn said on 2/Jun/08
thanks manitobaboy
Manitobaboy said on 1/Jun/08
That photo is a keeper, Glenn. I always thought he was around 5'10 - 5'11.
glenn said on 29/May/08
thanks for that info kittiekat.backs my claim.
KittieKat said on 28/May/08
A friend of mine works for Pac's mother, and I had the opportunity to ask his sister what he looked like in real life, and she told me to look closely at their cousin Jamala and imagine Pac's head on her body, lol!
Jamala is about 5'9, and suuuuuper skinny. Sekwiya (or Set as they call her) said he was just more cut.
JT said on 27/May/08
Oh yeah dits, I've seen that picture before. Suge is like 6'3'', and Pac looks way taller than 5'9'' there, but I agree with your assessment.
dits said on 25/May/08
yeah JT,in some pictures he looks quite tall next to taller people.look at that picture that i posted in my last comment.just click the link once and if it doesnt open,just 'enter' at the URL once (not clicking the link once more,just press enter at the URL).

the only thing that makes me not change my view that he was 5'9 is that a man can only look as small as he is,but its easier,relatively, to look taller.so i take the height he's looked shortest at.
Domo said on 22/May/08
GLENN! YOU MET 2PAC!!! U LUCKY LUCKY MAN!!!
JT said on 21/May/08
I think Pac was definitely around 5'9'', I've seen him look VERY small in some photos and videos. This one picture I just found of him and Dr. Dre is interesting though. Dre is said to be around 6 ft or 6'1'', granted he is leaning a bit here but Pac looks like he's right up to him.

dits said on 14/May/08

the only picture that makes me question the 5'9 listing,although I still pretty much believe he is 5'9.
glenn said on 8/May/08
pac was wearing boots with a bit of heel.5-10 is possible.5-9 more likely.
jd said on 7/May/08
even if tupacs wearing timbalands in that pic, he has at the very least 2.5 inches on you in that pic. unless youre barefoot, glenn, he has an easy 1.5+inches on you. i could see a weak 5'10
anon said on 7/May/08
big syke is most likely 6'1.
TELLEM said on 1/May/08
i'll believe him being 5'9...i actually thought pac's height was shorter than that...but since glenn is saying he had timberland boots which give u a boost cause he looks about 5'10 here...i'd definetly agree with 5'9
glenn said on 27/Apr/08

I would give tupac 5'8" mayb e 5'9". Also does anybody know how tall Big Syke is?

pac-5'9.
dre-6'1
suge knight- 6'3
snoop dogg- 6'4
daz dillinger-5'11
kurupt-5'10
p.diddy-5'10

thats the whole death row for you+p.diddy,the antagonist lol.

pac was 5'9,for sure.in the movie juice,he looks slightly shorter than omar epps who's 5'10 in my opinion.look at pac in above the rim,he never looks more than 5'10,and that may be due to his footwear.he's 5'9,no doubt about.

never did i believe the 5'11-6'0 claims some people made,because he really never looks like it.

he was sweet enough.not overly friendly,but nice enough to fans.he would walk the streets with a posse sometimes.he would turn me down for the photo with at these times,but he turned me down nicely.a class act either way.

I know its been a long time since ive been on here but Glenn I gots another question for ya, do you think 2pac would like a person like me? i dunno an easy way to show you but if you go to myspace and put /coondog1234 after the .com you can see a pic of me there, i have a youtube channel but my face isnt in any of the videos i have on there, i hope this is ok that i type this, i just want to know if 2pac would have been cool with a dude like me
Hey Glen said on 11/Apr/08
Sound about right glen what does it feel like to be short because im 6 foot
glenn said on 30/Mar/08
there is no way he is taller than 5-10.if you never met him,dont be so sure.i met him many times.in the behind the scences footage of gang related he was a few inches shorter than james belushi who i believe is 5-11.in the actual movie,which showed shockingly the same short scene i saw,he appeared an inch shorter.some scenes similiar in height.which does lead me to believe that the camera angles help tupac.
lee said on 30/Mar/08
somebody else already brought this up imma have to agree with this scenario in the video for cali love 2pac is standing next to dr dre..dre is 6'1" he says it in the song "keep the heads ringin"..pac's at eye level with dre theres a picture of them standin 2gether..and their at eye level imma have to go with the 5'11 6'0..story there aint no way he was 5'7 or 8 or 9..he had to have been between 5'10 an 6..i know from the videos pac and puffy are bout the same height puffy's 5'11~6..also if u look at the above pic glenn and tupac are kind of leaned in at and angle

This Pic isnt good enough cuz u cant see Pac's legs, He is probably bending them.

ROFL @ that, u lost it man ? why tha **** should be bend his legs ?? to get on the pic ?? dont make a joke out of urself, pac bending legs to get on pic ahaha. btw 5.9 ft is the correct height, and chris, im sorry but pac is dead, its been proven already, and a guy like pac could never be in silence, he said it himself when he was senteced to jail that he doesnt want to go and they still cant stop him influencing ppl, u dont throw gasoline on a fire to put it out, his words, all his relatives, mates, friends all of em know hes dead, let him RIP
chris said on 4/Mar/08
i relie dnt think that 2pac is dead i look up two him soo much iv got all his cds and no nerlie all the words in all of his songs i hope and pray he int dead he looked and acted mint plz still be alive man
Brad said on 10/Feb/08
This Pic isnt good enough cuz u cant see Pac's legs, He is probably bending them.
U cannot state Pac's height based on this Picture due to the fact that his legs are not Visible. I know if I was that much taller than someone I would bend my legs just to get in the Picture. It looks like he's bending by the way his right shoulder is leaning towards u.
glenn said on 7/Feb/08
then i must be 5-11 if you look at the pic on top.dre has looked 6ft to me too.maybe he is 6-1.which brad is this?
Brad said on 6/Feb/08
If Dre is 6 foot 1 than pac had to be 6 foot or 5'11 shortest cuz look at the California Love remix video when they are all walking to the cars in the begining Pac is like one to two iches shorter than Dre. If he was 5'9 the difference would be alot more.
bars said on 31/Jan/08
without doubt he is 5'9. with the timberlands he used to wear he could be even shorter!
billy said on 17/Jan/08

He was listed as 5'10, but on that photo with Biggie he looks at least 15 cm shorter than him and Biggie was 6'3.
Sam said on 4/Jan/08
definallly 5'9. he can't be 5'11 if he was that height compared to 5'8 he would tower over glenn. you can definally tell whos taller by an inch,but its prety close at the same time. hes 5'9.
john said on 1/Jan/08
he's 1 inch taller than glenn, 5-9 is right.

I'd buy 5'10ish for this guy I think if he straightened out (5'9.5-5'10)

which would also make sense for the 5'11 police record if he was in shoes (most likely ~1 shoes, assuming they stand against the board in shoes)

Franco said on 9/Sep/07
no more than 176cm that's for sure.
Karma said on 1/Sep/07
Pac is actually five ten according to this picture. Timberland boots or not. Take your mouse put it not to the top of his bandanna but the top of his head. Which goes up a good amount. Take your mouse in a straight line the mouse will be two inches comparatively over his head. Now squash down the guys hair which is one inch. Tupac is DEF taller.
glenn said on 30/Aug/07
at times he did look 5-10.so maybe your right.but...he did have big boots on most of the time.some,with a heel.
2Pac 4 Life said on 28/Aug/07
I would say that Pac was at least 5'10" because on a Picture wit Dre he looks almost as tall as him and in Juice he looks a lil bit bigger than Omar Epps who is 179 cm, and on a picture wit Snoop and Suge he looks like at most 15 cm shorter than them.
If yall want to look at it just tip Suge Snoop Pac and then youll see.
He wasn't as short as yall say...
Viper said on 23/Aug/07
You look at the top of their heads, not shoulders.
Deondre said on 23/Aug/07
Tupac is 5'10, just look at the shoulder difference between Glenn and Pac.
8 Ball said on 8/Aug/07
No, I think Pac was 5'10 because besides Omar Epps in Juice, who is 5'10 1/2 and Pac looked at most 2 centimeters smaller than him.

tupac isnt standing up staright either,so he could by 5-10 or 5-11 ?? look at him hes leaning over a lil bit
Derek said on 16/Jul/07
I thought 5'7" myself, but he does look 5'9" with Glenn.
glenn said on 16/Jul/07
right.i agree with 5-9 the most.
Viper said on 16/Jul/07
Glenn, I thought Tupac was 5-7 till I saw your picture. Hes looking a solid 5-9.
glenn said on 15/Jul/07
i agree darkfalz.5-7 is more believable than 6ft.its possible he was 5-7,but i dont think that low.he was taller by an inch or 2 next to 5-7,5-8 tim roth in that movie,i think called gridlocked.
Darkfalz said on 14/Jul/07
Autopsy was a joke, he looked tiny, claimed 5'10" but Snoop at 6'3" towered WAY over him, at least 6 inches, so 5'9" at max, more likely 5'7"

glenn said on 9/Jun/07
i mean,anything is possible.i never thought dmx was 5-11,when he looks 5-9.but tupac never really looked more than 5-9ish.dmx looks 6ft next to steven seagal.

Glenn is right, 'Pac wasn't 5' 11" Snoop Dre and Suge Towered him and I.D.'s and Mugshots arent ever really accurate...and if you need any more proof well Glenn is 5' 8" and he's standing right next to 'Pac, so case closed. Good job Glenn.

AJ said on 9/May/07
tupac mostly wore timberland boots, as i am sure he is wearing in this picture, which add almost two inches to height, so this probably accounts for the discrepancy between 5.8/5.9 and 5.10/5.11

i said on the rourke page that rourke was probably an inch taller, but i've seen quite a bit of pics recently where he looks about an inch or more taller than rourke. man, i don't know about these celebrities, lol. maybe they can change their heights when ever they want or something, lol. i think he called himself "small" because the smaller he was in body, the bigger he was in heart. that probably doesn't make sense to a lot of people but the ones who have followed his short career and life.
dan uk said on 23/Feb/07
From Pac's videos and in particular drom that seen when he rolls into court he looks small. i think 5'7 tops-he was known for being short. People who stand 5'10 are not called short. As a side point, I am 175cm exactly without shoes. is that 5'8 or 5'9? thanks
Sale said on 16/Feb/07
In one of his songs Pac mentions "I'm 5 by 7 will I get to go to ghetto heaven" and in Gettin' Money, as someone else stated, he mentions that he is 155. This however changes in later songs to reflect his future weights, in another version of Gettin' Money he mentions 165.

One of my favorite tupac moments is the interview where he is talking about Mike Tyson. Pac is talking about how he admires Mike (remember pac died before tyson did the really weird ish) because "We have the same heart, the only difference is Mike's big, I'm small." Tyson was only 5'10", and I know he was 225 but you have to believe mike was at least noticably taller to get tupac to call himself small.

Even with a slouch, Pac still has an inch on Glenn. He might be closer to 5'10".
