I've posted the comment I'm responding to below my statement. So, the woman in the picture isn't Val Kilmer's daughter (Jack's sister). Her name is Eva Vik and she directed Jack in a short film.

5'11.75" peak is most plausible in my mind. Just the slightest fraction off six feet, but not enough that many would notice.

I stood next to him at a Wimbledon tennis final in the 90s and was amazed that he was quite a bit shorter than me at 5'10. And not a big build either.I honestly guess hes around 5'8 if that.

I’ll say Kilmer peaked anywhere between the 5’11-5’11.5 range. I watched Heat yesterday and he looked 2-2.5 inches taller than 5’9 De Niro. I doubt he was a full 6’0, maybe a weak one but he’s more of a 5’11 guy. Also in Top Gun he looked almost 3 inches shorter than 6’2 Anthony Edwards.

Rob, is the full 6ft peak arguable?
In Top Gun, The Doors, Heat and Batman Forever it looked possible. I'd at least move it to 5ft11¾. Nowadays looks like he's struggling with 5ft11 like in the newer Top Gun

I met Val in 2010. I'm 6'1". He was taller than me. But I also wear Converse Chuck Taylors. He was wearing nice leather loafers. His heel might have been thicker than mine giving him the extra inch over me. But he was a big guy pre-illness.

I saw him about 12 years ago in a restaurant in New York. At 6’2 I towered over him. My friend who is 6’1 was two or three inches taller than him. I would say a weak 5’11 at the most. Jim Carrey was much taller in Batman and had to kind of slouch and shrink himself down in their scenes together.

Many Happy Returns to Val Kilmer, who today celebrates his 61st Birthday. Yes, I saw him over Christmas - in 'True Romance' - the one film of his which doesn't show his face! 😯 He plays Christian Slater's mentor, in the form of Elvis Presley, and does a pretty good impersonation of Elvis's speaking voice!

James, Sam Shepard could look a decent 6ft1 guy so not impossible for him to have been a little over it. I know he was listed 6ft1½ in places before...might be some validity to that.
Val could pull off 6ft, I don’t think he was too far from it. This listing is the shortest I’d go for. In Top Gun there was still around 3-4in between him and Cruise even though he had to wear socks

In The Island of Dr. Moreau there is no way Val is only 5'11 1/2. He look 6'0 or at least 5'11 3/4 with 6'2 1/2 David Thewlis when there was a scene both walking side by side barefooted.

Why would his illness affect his height? Unless everyone is referring to something other than the throat cancer.
In any case he has definitely lost some height, most likely a weak 5'11 today.

Editor RobIt seems to have effected his neck and ability to hold good posture.
To be honest, in person I could see how he looks 5ft 10 nowadays, but I don't know if he's able to stand taller when measured.

Seeing recent pics of him at the London Film and Comic Con 2019, he seems to have shrunk a lot (as well as looking really different). I would say 5'7ish now, comparable to Martin Sheen. So sad to see him in this state due to his illness.

Would you say he was always that bit under the 6ft mark rob? I'd say he was comfortably over 5ft 11 in his prime maybe even near 6ft but I think he might have passed for 6ft in the batsuit at least, 5ft 11.5 is a good enough listing but 5ft 11.75 may also be possible, nowadays he does look barely 5ft 11 as you said before, maybe 5ft 10.5 or 5ft 10.75 today is on the cards?

Just seen a very recent photo of Val standing next to Springsteen, who is listed here at 5'9.5", and the 2 look dead even. And that's even with a lot of the comments on the Springsteen page suggesting he's lower than that. Now I'm not saying Val is that low, especially with a lot of the comments saying Bruce wears big boots, but certainly would argue for Kilmer needing both a peak and current height. Ftr, I would give him a peak height of 5'11.25" and current of an inch lower...

I can't see less than 5'11" peak since he could look pretty tall, but he's been a big boot guy. Cowboy boots and other pretty thick style so naturally he'll look taller than he is at times. Maybe it's just me, but he sometimes strikes me as more height conscious than you might think. I don't mean that he wears lifts, but maybe he's a guy who would have liked to reach a full six feet.

Watch heat lots of big and talls he is well over average height.

In the movie The Ghost and the Darkness, Kilmer is the same height as Michael Douglas. It doesn't look like Douglas is wearing lifts. This can be seen in long shots when the two men walk together. Explain that! I think he's 5-10. Maybe max 5-11. He wasn't any taller than Kurt Russell in Tombstone. And looked shorter than Bill Paxton. And a lot shorter compared to Sam Elliot.

I've seen some photos of him next to 5'9 and 5'10 actors and I think he looks 6' to 6'1 most of the times but perhaps he uses a little bigger heel most of the times. He seems to like wearing slightly bigger shoes. Don't think he uses lifts though.

The photo Pete linked shows Kilmer standing in front of a police height chart. He appears to be 5'10". Maybe all that weight compressed his spine. I tend to believe he was never any taller than perhaps 5'11" back when he was thin. And is no more than 5'10" today.

Kilmer is an interesting case since he consistently can pull off 6'-6'1" on screen, looking at his build and proportions, and even in his debut film, as Nick Rivers in "Top Secret", he definitely looks it. His ID in the film "Salton Sea" even had him listed at 6'1". But when you really start breaking down the heights of the actors he has appeared with, his height does start going down more to the 5'11" range. For instance, he looked no more than 2" taller than 5'9" Mira Sorvino in "At First Sight", and was totally dwarfed by Ed Begley Jr. in "Batman Forever". He did claim when he tried on Jim Morrison's clothes for "The Doors", they were too small for him, but I doubt Morrison was ever anything more than 5'9.5"-5.9.75" (minus the trademark big hair and boots he always wore).

Editor Rob I'd need to rewatch his scene with ed to say how tall he can look. I know in that deja vu he didn't look much smaller than someone like bruce greenwood or denzel. At peak anywhere in 5ft 11-11.5 is possible.

The only time kilmer has looked remotely close to 6'2 was in the dance scene in the movie 'top secret'. In most of his movies could look anywhere from 5'10 to 6'0.

Editor Rob depends on how they measured - if they used a height rod/device there is always a chance it might not have been as accurate. I would always do your own measurement in your house as you can then take the time to know exactly how tall you are.

Chris O'donnell is a strong 5'8 or a weak 5'9 dude. Val is about 2 or 3 inches on him, but in his pictures as batman he looks even taller because his boots and costume is bigger than o'donnell's.
But Val is a solid 5'11 guy, even he could looks 6 sometimes. George Clooney is a little bit shorter, he is 5'10.

Dan, pardon, but either you're telling us tall tales (pun intended) or you're nowhere near being five-nine barefoot.
First of all, Chris Lloyd is slightly over six feet tall. I've met him a couple of times. By the way, very nice man. He's at least an inch taller than me. Perhaps as much as an inch and a half.
The time I saw Kilmer he wasn't taller than me. He looked shorter by about an inch. I'm five-eleven.

My posts are completely useless only to those people who cannot or will not accept the truth. Seems there are loads like that.
I've seen Kilmer in persons stood not more than five feet from him. He looked five-ten max.
I see lots of celebs because first I live where they live and hang out and second, I worked in the biz for forty years. You'd be surprised how many are not their officially listed height.
And one more thing, I find those who accuse others of being trolls should first look into the mirror.

That's Kilmer with rapper 50 Cent (Curtis James Jackson III) who's reportedly six feet. Kilmer is definitely shorter.

Rob perhaps consider having another look at kilmers peak height?
Click Here
In the video ed begley who is listed at 6'4 clearly looks more than 4.5 inches taller.
I know u think that val is no less than 182cm but how do u explain the size difference between him and Ed? I'd even go as far as saying he looks 5'9 range if ed is only 193cm.

The fact is that if Ed Begley Jr is only 6'4, he does struggle to look 5'11 with him, he really dwarfed him in Batman Forever!
He's actually 6'3.5 according to this site..... he did tower over both Jim Carey and kilmer. Carey posture was poor though.

Rob am i right in thinking that val kilmer is probably not over a flat 5'11 in 2013? He's in his 50s and given his weight problems in the past some height loss is not impossible?
Tallest i have seen Val look was that dance scene in the movie top secret where he looked 6'2 but he was very slim back then and had on heeled shoes in that scene. In Batman Forever he did not look over 5'11 though.....

Actually I met Val Kilmer a couple of years ago, he seemed a little taller than 6'0" He was likely around 6'1" when I met him. I'm 6' and he had at least half of an inch over me.

Maio, even if he had shoes, they could give him around 2 cm(a weak inch), and hunching over can make you lose 5 cm/2 in, at least 3 cm, so he could be a proper 6-footer. Not saying that I am 100%, though.

He's a little taller than Jim Carrey in 'Batman Begins,' but Carrey is hunched over to match his character's social awkwardness - probably reducing his stature by a half-foot. If Carrey is 6'3 then 6'2 seems about right for Kilmer.

I've met Val - for real met him - on a number of occassions, and spent a good amount of time talking to him one on one. My husband is 6'2". My father and two of my brothers are exactly 6'0". So I have a good perspective on Val's height I think. I remember thinking the first time I met him that if I took one step in and put my arms around him, his chin would pretty much fit right on top of my head, just like my husband's does. He is soooo not 6 feet or below. He is at least 6'1" and probably at bit taller. My call is a solid 6'2".

Even 182cm looked too high next too Begley. Do you think kilmer could have been just 180cm all along? If Kilmer is 182cm then Ed Begley must have peaked at 6'4.5 or 6'4.75? if val is 183cm then there is no way that ed is anything under 6'5.

In the movie "At First Sight" he was comfortably taller than legit 5'9 Mira Sorvino, maybe he really lost height....
He was for sure 5'11.5 at peak but today looks to be 5'10 flat, it's strange because 1.5inches of loss at barely 52y it's an huge amount.

Alex if he was wearing cow boy boots then i woulden't even bet on 182cm since they tend too give more than just half an inch i think?
Frank2 said he was to eye to the same height as him so that could mean.....
Peak 5'11 (180cm)
Today 5'10.25 (178cm)
The guy is not healthy and obese so that is bound to have knocked some height off him.

Mamun's a bit more than 5' 8", they quote 5' 8.25" in other parts of the site, and he's more than that in the morning (unless that's his morning height).
Kilmer's a solid 6' to me.

Val Kilmer's height's are:
Peak
Morning (out of bed)= 6'0.2" (1.83,5 m)
After 1,5-3 hrs= 5'11.85" (1.82,5 m)
After 5-10 hrs= 5'11.45" (1.81,5 m)
If you see the scene in "the Doors" when he has been arrested, in the photos he was a little shorter tha 6 feet! Really he wasn't straight but probably in this photo he wore Jim Morrison's boots, where heel is probably over 1 inch, so i think he's best height was 6'0.2" (1.83,5 m), not over! Now i belive he's in the 1.82-1.80 m range!

Hmm, could be, I am crazy about this site. I mean no offense, but the 0.25" don't really matter that much to me; there are people here that are extremely good at getting the heights dead on; now 0.5" does matter! Hah! ;) I am great at weight guessing though; I could be a Carnie.
Seriously though, find the trailer for "The Traveler" released last month and see if you can tell me how y'all think he looks gigantically tall. The movie (horror) is something in that genr that acually rocks these days; where it is hard to find in that genre.
I list that to see what his height appears to all of you with the keen peepers. (And Idon't mean "gigantic" literally, and some of this happened, mayhaps, to seem sarcastic, it was not; I really just wonder about the way these things look i.e.I know Elijah Wood wasn't actually hobbit-sized.)

Sorry, the movie in which Mr. Kilmer is the tallest person in is "The Traveler", not. "The VVisitor" Hah! You could also add "Willow" as Matmartigan.

He looks quite formidable in "The Visitor", which I am watching now. 6' looks tall in RL to me (5'10"), but he must have lifts, camera tricks, or short co-stars.

He looks more like a 5'11 than a 6ft. Most 5'11 guys will claim the 6ft mark, but in reality there's still an inch difference.

There is absolutely no less than 4 inches between Val and Mamun. Val is a legit 6 footer...

next to Ed Begley he didn't look much shorter. less than a half head actually when the camera angle went straight. he is 1,83 at the lowest

@ James perhaps you are right, in most of his films he seems just about tall but 182 is just about where incipient tallness starts.

I doubt he was ever over 6feet most likely 182cm at night in his youth. 182cm today in the afternoon and 181cm at night.

Never did see him below 6'0. He does have a tall appearance but with other people he loses it. So above average.
