WWE still bill him as being 7ft , and with his old ring gear he appeared very close to that , he wears smaller lifts now which make look around 6'9" maybe slightly more. I think 6'7.5 barefoot is on the money. sid says on 6/Oct/08

Jericho wears enormous lifts in his boots thats why he looks eye-to-eye with people like CM Punk and only a couple inches shorter than Orton. In reality barefeet Jerocho is 5'9.5-5'10 and Orton is 6'4. sid says on 5/Oct/08
Viper Kane is 6'8 barefeet, with gear he's 6'9m didnt you read what dicksock said, kane is 6'9 with boots on Kendra says on 5/Oct/08
here are my listed heights and/or weights
Kane 6'8.5" 323
Undertaker 6'8" 290
Steve Austin 6'1.5" 245
Batista 6'3.5" 290
John Cena 6'1" 240

He might have 4 inches on him, but in that video he has less than 1. Anonymous says on 5/Oct/08
orton 6'1.5"?? that makes rob van dam like 5'8.5 Click Here Clay says on 5/Oct/08
Not much better Umar. Cena 5'10.5?? Cody Rhodes 5'10? Those guys are clear 6'0-6'1. Viper says on 4/Oct/08
Most of those estimates seem too low Umar but you are right about Triple H and Batista.
dicksock Kane is really 6-7 and not 6-9. sid says on 4/Oct/08
dicksock, theres no way kane could wrestle with 2 inch lift, I have 2 inch lift very hard to walk in. in order to kane to be 6'9, is 1 inch soles he has, thats making him 6'8 barefeet... eric 1 says on 4/Oct/08
Drexyl your smoking some real good stuff. Can Da Man and I have some of that smoke. Da Man nailed it right on. Kane has and easy height advantage even with the camera favoring goldust. Kane has 4 inches on him . Alex says on 4/Oct/08
Goldust isn't more than 6'5. He's sure at least 6'4. dicksock says on 4/Oct/08
I've been like 2 feet from Kane at an episode of Raw a couple years back and he looked about 6'9 in boots. I am friends with a basketball player who actually looks kinda like Kane and he's 6'9. Kane looked like about the same height as my friend only kane was a VERY muscular version of him. Kane could be less, but I doubt it. Atoadaso says on 3/Oct/08
Goldust could pass as a legit 6'6". At least, that's always what I thought he was. I'm sure he is at least 6'5". He is probably just about the same height as JBL. Umar says on 3/Oct/08
Sorry I made a mistake. Here's an advanced list of barefoot estimates.
Big Show-7"
Great Khali-7"1
Undertaker-6"6.5 (Badass was 6"8)
Kane-6"6.5 (6"8.5 when he had the mask)
Randy Orton-6"2 (yes, he only looked a little taller than Chris Jericho face-to-face)

Da Man, sorry bud, don't see how the camera angle favors anyone there. Don't get me wrong, I don't think they're the same height, I think it had something to do with footwear.
Drexyl says on 2/Oct/08
The camera angle favours Goldust at the start but then moves round and is more or less right between the two.
It's all in the camera angle. Perspective is shifting throughout the video and is almost always in Goldust's favor, and the entire frame is tilted in Goldust's. Notice the fence, boxed and pillar behind them, all tilted way towards Kane.

Da Man, I gotta admit bro, I didn't notice that. Especially those shots where Kane is taller, I stand corrected. Goldust still seems too close in height to me, but it may be the angles like you said plus he has bigger footwear. Good job. Da Man says on 3/Oct/08

"But even when the camera favours Kane...Goldust still looks the same height. Even if Kane has an advantage, it's certainly no more than about half an inch.
I don't understand how you can't see this."
1. The entire frame is rotated in Goldust's favor! (see below)
2. Even when the camera favors Kane it is MUCH less of a advantage than Goldust gets early on.
If you think there's only half an inch between them in the pics with Kane favored and no favor, you need either pay more attention or have your eyes checked. Open the pic in MS paint and draw the lines yourself, you'll see.

No offense, but you're flat out wrong. Anonymous says on 1/Oct/08
It's got nothing to do with the camera angle. In fact it's pretty neutral for much of it. Goldust is slouched through most of the video. Watch him stand straight at 0.15. There's not a hair between them.
I'm not trying to say Kane is 6,6" or anything like that. In fact I'm in support of him being upgraded to 6,8". But there's no denying there that Goldust looks every bit as tall as him. Maybe Goldust was wearing some monster heels, maybe the floor was uneven. Who knows. Alex says on 1/Oct/08
That video of Kane and Goldust was backstage so we never know what could be going on. Kane maybe barefoot or something or in sandals or converse type sneakers or Goldust could be in lifts. They could have done that for Goldust to appear closer to Kane's height. Da Man says on 1/Oct/08
KingNick says on 30/Sep/08
"This is the video drexyl is referring to Click Here Kane isn't any taller here and I don't think it's the camera angle. My guess is at the time when Kane was brought back he was more of a comedic figure so they slapped some lifts on Goldust to make Kane seem less intimidating. Doesn't make too much sense, but it's the only thing I can think of. All the other evidence points to Kane being a minimum of 6'7.5", like Rob points out. I hate it when the WWE does that. They bill a guy 7', another 6'6", and have them look the same height in a video. It's weird."
They don't look the same height if you bother to consider camera angles. See below. Kane's got a minimum of 2" on Goldust in that video. eric 1 says on 30/Sep/08
It was a bad angle. Kane has an easy 3 inches on goldust there. Rantsrob says on 30/Sep/08
Kanes billed 7' on the site. Any given time they say hes 6'10'' or near 7'. Kanes what? 3rd tallest man in wwe today with a majority of the roster 6'2'' and under its not hard to get him off as 7'. Wwe just doesnt have those big 6'5'' mid carders they use to anymore. KingNick says on 30/Sep/08

"I know Kane is taller, but he doesn't look it there. I know Goldust would have had a footwear advantage as well, but it seems odd that they'd let a guy that they usually bill at 6,6" look as tall as a guy they bill at 7 feet.
And there's no way there's 3 inches there at all. Watch Kane lift his head at 0.33 to make himself look taller."
There's at least 2 inches there. Most of the video is shot over Goldust's shoulder, making him look bigger overall. At 0:30 there are about the same distance from the camera, but Kane is sort of leaned over. Even still there is 2" there.

Drexyl, it is just the camera angle; Dustin Runnels (Goldust) is really like 6'5. Dustin is about 3 inches shorter than Kane. Also, this was around the time that Kane came back from injury and he did not wear thick boots/lifts during this period; whereas Dustin's footwear was thick as ever!
Speaking of angles, I can't remember where, but I've seen a picture of where 6'5 JBL looked like he stood slightly taller than 6'7.5 Undertaker.. Drexyl says on 29/Sep/08

Rantsrob sorry dude... I tend to overlook sometimes get right to the point without fully reading, I'd still say 6'8 bare today, kane hasn't lost any height, only reason why he looked taller when he first came in was cause he had 2 inches of lifts in him, and check out new video of Glen jacobs towering over people I POSTED DUDE.

No my good sir. I quoted somone who SAID kane was 6'7'' barefoot. My opinions are a 6'8''PRIME Kane 6'7.5'' Present, 6'10'' in ring gear (1997) 6'9.5'' - 6'9'' In ring gear (2003-present). Read the entire post and you'll realize i quoted somone. Alex says on 21/Sep/08

sid, yeah i saw that promo too, but they clearly have randy barefoot or kane with MONSTER lifts (they are known for doing this, especially with kane and other wrestlers who are clearly not their billing)..... so id say a 6'7 barefoot kane is fairer, as the height difference is never this big in the ring, and when i met randy IRL (im 6'1 flat), he looked a legit and easy 6'4
We've discussed this video and i have another video of a 6 man tag with kane and randy where the same height difference can be seen. Kanes 6'9.5'' in ring gear and randy is 6'5'' with footwear theres a soild 4'' to 4.5'' difference in the video.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. Kane recently had a staredown with JBL IN RING where he looked IMO 3.5" taller.
Just last night on Raw JBL with poor posture clearly had an inch at least on Orton in the ring.
I'm not so sure that backstage promo was as manipulated as you think. There have been numerous videos posted here where Kane has looked at least 4.5" taller than Orton in the ring. Notably in a somewhat recent (in the last 2 years) lumberjack match Kane and Randy where standing next to each other outside the ring, the height difference looked just about like it did in that promo.
Also, Kane has dwarfed Edge by over 4" in the ring as well, and Orton and Edge are within 0.5" of one another. AnonymousHunter says on 17/Sep/08

id say 6'8-9 for morgan btw, nash's posture isnt as good and nash had shrunk an inch from his peak height during these pics (knee surgeries and his age/height), i still think even now..... that a totally straight upright nash is taller than morgan, and a 1998 nash would easily be taller than morgan, and visibly..... check the way nash used to stand in the ring to the second link with him and morgan..... and also, nash's shoes are SOOOOOO flat (nash was always known for not using lifts because they killed his knees, he has even admitted this in interviews) Dave says on 16/Sep/08
sid, yeah i saw that promo too, but they clearly have randy barefoot or kane with MONSTER lifts (they are known for doing this, especially with kane and other wrestlers who are clearly not their billing)..... so id say a 6'7 barefoot kane is fairer, as the height difference is never this big in the ring, and when i met randy IRL (im 6'1 flat), he looked a legit and easy 6'4 sid says on 16/Sep/08
Heres Kane with randy backstage segment. Kane looks like he has 5 inches on randy, kane barefeet 6'8 in ring gear making him 6'9. randy 6'4 check it out
Click Here Rantsrob says on 14/Sep/08
Drexyl says on 14/Sep/08
Morgan looks an easy 6,10" there.
No sid says on 14/Sep/08
Vegas Nash still looks taller by a inch Rantsrob says on 14/Sep/08
Click Here Kane and taker backstage segment from recently. Drexyl says on 14/Sep/08
Morgan looks an easy 6,10" there. Gazz says on 13/Sep/08
Has anyone got any pics of a morgan and nash staredown? sid says on 12/Sep/08
Rolf If your 6'9 and kane is 6'8 it's not much diff, how could tell he was shorter when 6'8 to 6'9 is barely noticeable, perhaps your b.sing KingNick says on 11/Sep/08
Kane's got quite a bit of height on Randy Orton here and this was when he prob didn't have lifts Click Here
I think Kip is about 6'4" here's his footwear Click Here Robby says on 11/Sep/08
I am not sure if Kipp James/ Billy Gunn had lifts on his wrestling boots during his career. but he is definitely taller then 6'3". I would say 6'4" for sure. hs2008 says on 11/Sep/08
It's funny that TNA bills Kip James at 6'3" when he's clearly taller than that. He claims 6'5" on his official website and WWE billed him at 6'4"-6'5" from what I can remember. JT says on 11/Sep/08
Gazz says on 11/Sep/08
Matt morgan had maybe 2 inches on Kipp James one time in TNA when they had a staredown....
A little more than that. Click Here James does look in the 6'4" to 6'5" range though. James looked considerably taller than Schwarzenegger when he appeared on Smackdown many years ago. Drexyl says on 11/Sep/08
Morgan is nothing under 6,9" in wrestling boots. There's just no way. He was every bit as tall as Nash in their staredowns and Nash is 6,9" at the very LEAST. Ghost says on 11/Sep/08
I see Morgan as 6'9. He looked very little if at all shorter than Nathan Jones who claims 6'10 and only a couple of inches shorter than Big Show. Gazz says on 11/Sep/08
Matt morgan had maybe 2 inches on Kipp James one time in TNA when they had a staredown, I remember hearing Kipp saying before i think on a shoot interview that he's 6'5. Gazz says on 11/Sep/08
matt morgan in my opinion isnt the same height as nash, plus nash has lost some height for sure, I'm gonna go with morgan and kane the same height 6'8.5 Rantsrob says on 10/Sep/08
Ill take your word for it then. Also, I thought it was agreed on this site morgan was 6'8.5'' or am i just seeing things. Rolf says on 10/Sep/08
Kane is usually billed 6'9" to 7'0" , yeah right, no way! I stood next to Kane when I saw him in wrestling event, I stood taller than him and I am 6 ft 9 in. tall. Kane is I would say at most 6'8" Alex says on 10/Sep/08
Kane and Morgan would be around the same height. Morgan may edge Kane out a bit. Morgan I'd say is a solid 6'8 at least. rocky says on 10/Sep/08
People kane never lost any height, If kane was listed 6'8 in his college stats then most likely kane is that today, kane can't lose height he's only 41, you don't lose your height till your maybe 45 to 50's on onnnnnnn, kane is still a young man, maybe kane was always 6'8, not 6'8'5 who knows. Kane stacks up to matt morgan pretty well, i think kane is the same height as matt morgan, i seen kane and morgan match on ppv was it the rumble, kane was the same height, didnt look any diff there KingNick says on 10/Sep/08
I can't find this Matt Morgan vs. Kane match anywhere but as eric 1 mentioned it definitely exists it's even mentioned in this match Click Here I messaged this guy asking if he had it, keep your eyes open it's bound to turn up Drexyl says on 10/Sep/08
Kane definitely wasn't wearing lifts around that time. There's a video on youtube of him standing face to face with Goldust and looking only a hair taller than him. eric 1 says on 10/Sep/08
Ranstrob im going by the fact that he looked shorter for sure. On top of that he didnt have a those big boots with the extra sized heel. He wore a regular wrestling boot. If he had somthing on the inside then ranstrob your right about that i dont know. But no one knows. All i can go by is when i met him 2 of the 3 times i met him . The 2 times he had on regular dress shoes. He stood next to my 6ft6 friend fred and had a easy 2-3 inches on him . hs2008 says on 10/Sep/08
He did stack up well to Morgan, who is no smaller than 6'9" IMO. Drexyl says on 9/Sep/08
I think it was actually the '04 Rumble when Kane chokeslammed Morgan. It's on youtube so go and look for it. You only see it for a split second but Kane appears to stack up well to Morgan. KingNick says on 9/Sep/08
Ranstrob, I believe eric 1 is referring to the Kane era right before he lost his mask. I don't think he wore lifts during that period either. His boots looked like a normal wrestling shoe: Click Here (see 1:39, 2:19. Not the best shots but they look more normal)
It was actually the 2004 Royal Rumble where Kane chokeslammed Matt M-M-M-Morgan Click Here Kane starts wrestling Morgan at the 7 min mark, it's hard to tell heights tho because they don't have a staredown, but it looks close.
eric 1, if you happen to find that match between kane and morgan please post it. I looked but didn't find anything Rantsrob says on 9/Sep/08
There is also a video of kane chokeslaming matt morgan in royal rumble 2005. And eric 1 i dont see how you would know kane didnt wear lifts during this period? And i dont think kanes posture is loose in the picture with mamun hes standing tall. Kane is 6'7''-6'7.5'' today he was listed 6'8'' in college 20+ years ago. eric 1 says on 9/Sep/08
just found this off a matt morgan website.
- OVW Spring Break-Out '03 (April 11) = Morgan lost a "Respect" Match to Kane. eric 1 says on 9/Sep/08
the match they did was in Japan. It was in an arena that was outside. I saw the pic on a kane website sometime ago. Wouldnt know where to locate it. kishik says on 9/Sep/08
eric 1 show the pics of kane and matt morgan eric 1 says on 8/Sep/08
kane wrestled matt morgan when he wore the regular wrestling footwear.Im talking about when they tried making kane do comic segments when he first came back in 2002 from his injury. At that time he didnot wear lifts and in the pics with them wrestling there very close in height. KingNick says on 8/Sep/08
Alex2 says on 7/Sep/08
KingNick, in that photo JBL is at least 6'6" you even drew the line a little short actually lol. Also Kanes posture is relaxed in the photo with Mamun and Mamun is all straight as possible. My god the guys 6'8" live with it, no more no less.
I actually can't take credit for that photo, I found it somewhere. I think JBL is 6'6" too Alex says on 8/Sep/08
I wouldn't say over a foot difference with Mamun so no more than 6'8. Da Man says on 8/Sep/08
Kane's head will be more 10.5", absolute max 11". Mamun's head is only barely above the lowest point of Kane's collar. Drexyl says on 8/Sep/08
Kane made JBL look very small during their encounters at Unforgiven last night. hs2008 says on 8/Sep/08
I understand that Viper. It's pretty good evidence that Kane is 6'8" though, along with pictures with Mamun, JBL, Big Show etc.
Kane's head will be almost a foot I would imagine, putting him at 6'8"-6'8.5" in the Mamum pic considering that Mamun is 5'8.25". Viper says on 8/Sep/08
Well, its a fact. Just because you are listed as 6-8 in college basketball doesnt mean so. Clay says on 7/Sep/08
Thats correct he looks more 6'8/6'8.5 with Mamun. Alex says on 7/Sep/08
Kane's head is probably 11 inches long. Mamun is a bit more than a head shorter than Kane. I am not 100% sure on Kane's head length though but looking at the picture I'd say thats about a foot or 11.5 inches. Alex2 says on 7/Sep/08
KingNick, in that photo JBL is at least 6'6" you even drew the line a little short actually lol. Also Kanes posture is relaxed in the photo with Mamun and Mamun is all straight as possible. My god the guys 6'8" live with it, no more no less. Big King says on 7/Sep/08
With Mamun, Kane doesn't look 6'7"! hs2008 says on 7/Sep/08
Viper, you are sooooooo selective when it comes to what constitutes as proof.
What about the pics with Mamun? He's 5'8.25" and Kane has more than a full head size on him. Alex says on 7/Sep/08
With Mamun I could see him pushing 6'8. Just under. Viper says on 6/Sep/08
Well, the 6-8 listing isnt any proof because its just a listing. KingNick says on 6/Sep/08
Big King, care to share the link? Alex2 says on 6/Sep/08
I dont think its possible for JBL to be below 6'5". Drexyl says on 6/Sep/08
Kane stood taller over JBL than Matt Morgan does in that photo. I'm not saying Kane is taller than Morgan as we all know he's not, but when taking into account the stance and footwear, Kane can't be very far off Morgan (who went toe to toe with a 6,9" Kevin Nash and looked every bit as tall as him).
Kane can't be under 6,8". It just doesn't add up. Rantsrob says on 6/Sep/08
Big King says on 6/Sep/08
JBL's real height is 6'5 1/2", not 6'6". There are websites where there are real heights of wrestlers and other celebrities and there it is written that JBL is 6'5 1/2" and Kane at 6'8".
Uhh, isnt that this site. Alex2 says on 6/Sep/08
To be honest I didnt see more than 3" in the Kane, JBL staredown. JBL alos ahd is hat on thou. Big King says on 6/Sep/08
JBL's real height is 6'5 1/2", not 6'6". There are websites where there are real heights of wrestlers and other celebrities and there it is written that JBL is 6'5 1/2" and Kane at 6'8". hs2008 says on 6/Sep/08
I think his college listing at 6'8" is proof enough, plus the pictures with Mamun & Eric and how he towered minimum 6'5" JBL this week on RAW. I know with Roethlisberger he looked about 6'7.5" but that's one pic and we couldn't see footwear. Kane may have had no shoes on in the backstage area, we simply don't know. I still think he's 6'8"-6'8.5", he's too huge. Viper says on 6/Sep/08
Rob has him perfectly really. There is no good concrete evidence to suggests hes at least 6-8 or 6-8 1/2. But we do have very good evidence that hes at least around the 6-7-6-7 1/2 region. KingNick says on 6/Sep/08
We were talking about JBL earlier, here's why I think he's 6'6". I don't think Matt M-M-M-M-Morgan is anything less than 6'9"
Click Here Monte says on 5/Sep/08
Kane is actually 6ft 11in because The Undertaker is 6ft 10in Drexyl says on 5/Sep/08
I think he should be upgraded to at least 6,8". There's too much evidence to suggest he's anything less. Sid says on 5/Sep/08
PJ You met kane, he said almost 6'7, he told me and Eric and other that he is 6'8 or over, when did you meet kane.??? and where Clay says on 5/Sep/08
RantsRob, I have heard from numerous fans that they asked Kane when they met him and each one said that Kane says 6'8/6'8.5. Alex says on 5/Sep/08
I am still sticking with 6'7 1/2-6'8 for Kane. Big King says on 5/Sep/08
How old is Glen Jacobs? When he's over 40, maybe he was 6'8 1/2" in his prime. On these photos, 6'7 1/2" doesn't sound bad. I changed my mind. Big King says on 5/Sep/08
I think we should give Kane 6'8 1/2". Ghost says on 5/Sep/08
Rantsrob says on 4/Sep/08
It frusterates me when i here people say "Kane said hes 6'8.5'' in person" Or hes stated in an interview that he 6'8''. No he didnt come on people why would kane tell you anything under his billed height thats breaking kayfabe and it just sounds silly. Until proof of these claims rise i wont take any of these claims serious.
I wouldn't doubt the people who say Kane told them he is 6'8 or 6'8,5. These were not official conversations and weren't going to be printed anywhere. Kane breaks kayfabe already by talking to people and being nice. Pretty much every wrestler breaks kayfabe these days by appearing in talk shows and such. From all I've heard, Kane strikes me as an honest, kind person and I doubt he would lie about his height saying he is 7 feet tall, espacially if the person asking him was over 6 feet tall so that it would be obvious he would be lying. Alex says on 5/Sep/08
Kane looks no more than inch taller than Viscera but Vis looks to have bigger footwear. Vis I think is a legit 6'6 at least. Rantsrob says on 4/Sep/08

kane's official wwe profile says 7 feet. Clay says on 4/Sep/08
JBL could be as low as 6'4'' with those cowboy boots he weras. PJ says on 4/Sep/08
I met Kane, he told me "almost 6'8" but I'd say 6'7 is accurate. Viper says on 4/Sep/08
Kane looks barely 6-7 with Viscera. They almost look the same height there. Alex says on 4/Sep/08
How long does Kane's head look? I'd say likely could be 11 inches. If so then thats a foot between the 2 and we're looking at a 6'8 Kane. Eric's height I am not too sure of. He's claimed 5'11.5, 5'11.75 and 6'0. Either way Kane's 6'7.5-6'8 with him as well. Big King says on 4/Sep/08
We all know that Kane is a big tough guy but beside Mamun, he looks 6'7" and beside Eric he looks 6'8" or over. KingNick says on 4/Sep/08
Ghost, Viscera sported HUGE footwear, maybe even bigger than Kane's
Click Here
Still, I don't think Kane is 6'9" either barefoot. I'm thinking maybe 6'8" now, 6'8.5" tops Big King says on 4/Sep/08
Woah! No way, Kane is under 6'8"!! He looks almost a foot taller than Eric! Da Man says on 4/Sep/08
Ghost says on 4/Sep/08
"So now Kane is 6'9 again?
People need to remember that Kane was only a hair taller than 6'6,5 Viscera
Click Here"
Perhaps you didn't notice Kane is obviously taller even though the ring is heavily tilted in V's favor?
Kane as a good inch on Big Daddy V, Kane only looks a hair taller when he matches V's eye level. Cobra says on 4/Sep/08
6-4 for JBL is way too low. Actually he is too tall for his Gimmick, that`s why he gets listed as his real height, 6-6, or at least he is damn close.
Kane 6-9 is a little bit stretched, but he is def. a shade over 6-8 IMO.
He said it himself in an interview. Why should he lie? He always seemed to be a tad taller than the Undertaker. Back then with lifts even more than just a tad.
He came pretty close to Big Show`s height in his lifts. He is billed 7ft and said in an interview he is 6ft8,5. He knocks off over 3 inches. And then some folks come around and want tell anybody he is just 6-7. adam says on 4/Sep/08
JBL 6-4 my ass. At least an inch more. He looked like 3-4 inches taller than
Batista. JBL had a footwear advantage by one inch but still! Batista is 6-3.
And CM Punk looks like 5 inches shorter than JBL. Ghost says on 4/Sep/08
So now Kane is 6'9 again?
People need to remember that Kane was only a hair taller than 6'6,5 Viscera
Click Here Viper says on 4/Sep/08
Yeah, I think Jason was off there but I originally pegged JBL at 6-4. JBL looks 6-4 tops I think there with CM Punk. Derek says on 3/Sep/08
Viper says on 3/Sep/08
"Jason thought JBL looked 6-3 at most in person".
No way. JBL never looks less than 6'4" and he may be closer to 6'5" in reality. Rantsrob says on 3/Sep/08
Alex2 says on 3/Sep/08
Humm, do you think now Kanes kinda a heel he may eb wearing his munsters again hence why he was so taller than JBL.
No, Kane was wearing his normal boots. You'll never see kane in munsters again just because it greatly hinders his wrestling performance thats already lacking cause of age. I dont know the exact height difference in the jibbl/kane staredown but i thought kane made jibbl look rather small. James says on 3/Sep/08
That Eric guy looks 5ft11 tops next to Kane Clay says on 3/Sep/08
The same Jason who toyed with the idea of a 6'7'' Big Show?? Viper says on 3/Sep/08
Jason thought JBL looked 6-3 at most in person. Alex2 says on 3/Sep/08
Humm, do you think now Kanes kinda a heel he may eb wearing his munsters again hence why he was so taller than JBL. Drexyl says on 3/Sep/08
I was quite surprised by how much bigger Kane looked than JBL. Taker never looked that much bigger than JBL in height or build. Captain Spaulding says on 3/Sep/08
If mamun's and eric's heights are correct then kane looks 6'9". Plus he usually looks an inch taller then taker whos 6'8" D-Lurker says on 2/Sep/08
Ranstrob says "Uhhh ohhhh, The stare down between Jbl and Kane tonight is going to raise some questions."
hhhmm well i wonder what this means :)
I saw Kane and JBL had barely any difference in height about 2 or 3 weeks back when they were backstabbin each other in the ring..I thought there would be discussion then. I have seen Randy Orton and JBL backstage with barely any difference, yet i have seen considerable difference between Kane and Orton backstage..kane might have been tippy toe-ing haha..well waddya do eeh?. will have to watch this upcoming episode..
would like to add that there is nothing scientific in my observations accept that they were just that, observations [/legal disclaimer] Da Man says on 2/Sep/08
Rantsrob says on 1/Sep/08
"Uhhh ohhhh, The stare down between Jbl and Kane tonight is going to raise some questions."
Even though JBL has a perspective advantage at 3:22 when their full bodies are visible, and in the other clips Kane is either further from the camera or leaning into JBL, he still made him look short. Easily 3" there, probaby more. Kane looked tall next to JBL in a way I have never seen Taker look.
Click Here Nick says on 2/Sep/08
Rantsrob says on 1/Sep/08
Uhhh ohhhh, The stare down between Jbl and Kane tonight is going to raise some questions.
JBL - 6'4 1/2
Kane - 6'8 Alex2 says on 2/Sep/08
Robby yea oone of my favorite games, don't get much time to play that much anymore though I have played all 3 FEAR's. Alex, yea if you include Kanes mask etc 2-2.5" max WWE should really still have him wear his munsters. Thanks KingNick, Ill try and see if I can get a shot of his shoes soon.
Shaq says on 1/Sep/08
I met Big Show once in person, he is 7'1" in shoes , In shoes I actually am 7'2" but 7'1" barefoot. WWE just exaggerated his 7'2 height. I always use my barefoot height, i'm tall enough already as it is.
LOL, What? Are you saying that your 7'1"? are you like actually Shaq lol? Ghost says on 2/Sep/08
It that pic Kane is definately on lifts and if Big Show stood straight and didn't lean to look Kane in the eyes he would easily be 3 inches taller. Rantsrob says on 2/Sep/08
3:20 onwards if you care to look Click Here Kane seems to be standing taller then the top of Jbls hat. 2.5-3 inches is what i got out of it Kane made Jbl look like a smaller man no doubt. Jbl is a big 6'5''-6'5.5'' plus boots could be standing 6'6.5'' in the video. 3inch difference Puts kane at 6'9.5'' in ring gear like i've always stated. KingNick says on 2/Sep/08
Rantsrob says on 1/Sep/08
Uhhh ohhhh, The stare down between Jbl and Kane tonight is going to raise some questions.
You think so? I thought Kane had quite a bit of height on him. This is the only photo I can find (pic 5 or 7) Click Here
I thought Kane had about 3" on him. I see JBL as anywhere 6'5" - 6'6" barefoot. Mamun says on 2/Sep/08
Shaq , would you be kind enough to provide us a picture of yours ?
Regards
Mamun Anonymous says on 2/Sep/08
thats a better angle and show with a much better posture, its at least 3 inches difference, thats about 1 second before the camera zooms in Click Here Drexyl says on 2/Sep/08
Kane looked like he had quite a significant height advantage over JBL in their staredown last night. Neither man was standing at their full height, and JBL's hat makes things difficult, but I could see 3-4 inches difference there. Alex says on 2/Sep/08
Looking at it again, Big Show has barely 2 inches on Kane there I think. I do think Kane's boots are probably giving him at least 2 inches in height. Robby says on 1/Sep/08
I would say Kane is about 6'8". those lifts that he wore at the 1999 King of the Ring probably made him 6'10" or so. I see you like FEAR. Awesome Game. Can't wait for Project Origin. Rantsrob says on 1/Sep/08
Uhhh ohhhh, The stare down between Jbl and Kane tonight is going to raise some questions. Alex2 says on 1/Sep/08
Alex, yea, I also think that J.R. said this "Big Show's 7'2" and Kane about 6'10.5" maybe 6'11" I mean J.R could have easily said 7'0" for Kane there since he was likely wearing his munsters. Alex I also think Kane's mask added a little bit of height as he also had the very long hair and the mask kinda came above his head a little. Clay says on 1/Sep/08
Thats about the tallest I've ever seen Kane look. Shaq says on 1/Sep/08
I met Big Show once in person, he is 7'1" in shoes , In shoes I actually am 7'2" but 7'1" barefoot. WWE just exaggerated his 7'2 height. I always use my barefoot height, i'm tall enough already as it is. KingNick says on 1/Sep/08
Alex2, excellent shot. Man when Kane had big shoes and great posture! Got a shot of his shoes by any chance? Maybe we can compare them to todays. Rantsrob says on 1/Sep/08
Big show isnt standing at his full height alex2. Alex says on 1/Sep/08
Alex 2, I have that PPV on tape myself. During that match JR said Big Show was 7'2 and Kane was 6'11. I dont see 3 inches there. More like just 2 but also this is when Kane had those lifts that gave some decent height to himself. During this time I could see why so many people thought Kane was a legit 6'10-6'11, even 7'0 because he's already very tall, plus lifts and his posture made him appear inches over his real height. |
