Hugh 191cm says on 29/Nov/09
6ft1.75 peak?
Brian says on 22/Feb/09
He was 6ft2 at his peak. Besides Marlon Brando in the godfather you can see a difference of at least 10 cm. Hugh says on 4/Nov/08
A good 6ft2 at his peak and 6ft nowadays. G-MANN says on 30/Sep/08
Abe Vigoda is actually Russian Jewish, not Italian. Polpot says on 24/Sep/08
And by the way, I've seen posts were they talk about abe vigoda's luca brazi character in the godfather, that's where the 6'6 comes from...vigoda wasn't brazi in godfather, he was Tessio. Brazi was lenny montana, and he was 6'6; thats were the mixup is from Polpot says on 24/Sep/08
Posture makes this guy look much taller than he is. You can observe a similar effect with Stewart in Vertigo - he looks much taller than 6'3" because of his weight, movement, and suit. In NY NY, they'll tell you this guy is 5'11, he may be less now but he was never taller. Anonymous -15 says on 30/Jul/08
Looked a solid 6' 1" in The Godfather even with his poor posture , peak height probably a bit more than 184cm. Brad says on 18/Jul/08
Imagine waiting around to meet Abe Vigoda. Classic Glenn and "Vigoda boots", don't leave home without them. Older Italians from New York are crabby bastads. Abe needs shorter pants. That Italian hand jesture means "I'm warnin' ya". AshnarLynx says on 30/Nov/07
This guy looked tall in Godfather films. Are you sure about his peak height? Glenn says on 30/Jun/06
He said something along the lines of "Im just walking,Id rather not".he was alright.not mean. Anshelm says on 17/Feb/06
Well, here's a guy with inconsistant height reports. I've seen 6'6"/198 cm and 6'4"/193 cm for instance. Interestingly, on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, there once was a Christmas sketch where he was used in a Christmas tree like manner, and he was referred to as "Six foot tall Abe Vigoda". Certainly some of the extras were taller than him – some of them considerably – making reports of 190+ cm VERY hard to believe. Glenn says on 4/Feb/06
he wasnt that bad.he just told me he would rather not.nicely.as you can see,he didnt look to tall.I heard 6-6! this pic was 1994. J-Dog. says on 31/Jan/06
Not only that but he looks pissed! LOL @ Glenn. Mario says on 29/Jan/06
Damm he has lost 5 to 6 inches!
In The Godfather he looked 6 ft 2 to me. |
