How tall is Arnold Schwarzenegger

Arnold Schwarzenegger's Height

5ft 10 ¾ (179.7 cm)

Peak height was 6ft 1 ½ (186.7 cm)
Austrian actor, bodybuilder and politician best known for starring in movies such as The Terminator, Predator, True Lies and Total Recall.
I'm 6'2". I've heard rumors that I'm really much shorter in real life - like 5'6" or something like that - which is ridiculous. I can assure you this is not the case. People look up to me, and not just because I do a lot of work in the community. I mean, most people really LOOK UP to me.
Many people who have met him in his early career have said he was between 6ft 1 and 2, although a genuine 6ft 3 man like Kevin Sorbo thought differently, saying with a straight face: "Arnold Schwarzenegger's about 5-11...yeah he says he's Six Three". This estimation is shared by respected actor Richard E. Grant who said "I meet the financial and physical 'muscle' of Tinsletown, in the persons of Mr Stallone and Mr Schwarzeneger...both of whom are substantially shorter than six foot."
Jon Meade said Arnie told him in a 1980 interview he was "6ft 1.5" and bodybuilder Vince Basille gave an insight into a young Arnie's height in an email to me, in which he described how he personally measured Arnie in 1969 at 6ft 1.5.

Arnold has also stated that he was "6ft 1 and 3/4" but in his 60's shrunk to 6ft 1, as measured by his daughter and in 2013 mentioned he was down to a worrying 6ft 1/2 inch. In his book 'Education of a Bodybuilder' he also mentioned his Top Form Measurements were: "Arms 22in, Chest 57in, Waist 34in, Thighs 28.5in, Calves 20in, Weight 235 lbs, Height 6 feet 2 inches".

Rob, do you know anyone who has shrunk as much as this man? Even 5”11 Jimmy Kimmel looks clearly taller than him on his show. I’m sure Jimmy wears heels though.

I believe Arnold was definitely 6”1 in his peak, crazy how much he’s shrunk. But he’s had a lot of injuries and a few heart surgeries, along with years of heavy weight lifting, I’m not surprised.

Wow, under 5'11 now huh?
Danimal 5'9 1/4" said on 11/Sep/23
6'1.5" Arnold (his peak height) with Andre probably 1984 at the latest: Click Here

Andre does have the camera angle advantage though (the pic is slightly tilted in his favor)
Oh IM WICKED COOL said on 9/Sep/23
Probably more 6'1 peak, now about 5'11. 5'10 to 5'9 seem like a stretch.
James B 172cm said on 5/Sep/23
Yeah 6’1-6’1.5 range peak
Slim1.75m said on 3/Sep/23
So @Rob how concrete are you giving him 6'1½ peak

Solid
Comfortable
Weak
Editor Rob
Comfortable some days, weak on others!
?????? ????? said on 1/Sep/23
no way hes still close to 5'11 in 2023.
181cmguy said on 1/Sep/23
@Duhon, I personally see him closer to 6'1 than 6'2 peak, also I'm most certain that he's shorter than me now.

Peak: 186.1(6'1 and 1/4)
Today: 179.7(5'10 and 3/4)

He might be the same height as Pitt now, unless Pitt himself has lost height already, as I have him at 5'10 and 3/4 peak.

@Philip Z, in that pic Arnie is closer to the camera, and Hemsworth is dropping a bit more height I think. I do agree on there being about 4inches between them there, but I have Chris Hemsworth at 6'2 and 3/4, so Arnie's still looking below 5'11 to me now ;o
Duhon said on 30/Aug/23
I think debating Arnie's current height is fruitless as he's in his mid 70s and been lifting weights for 50 years. Whether he was truly near 6'2" at his peak is the question?
Slamm said on 29/Aug/23
5-10 now.
Hong said on 29/Aug/23
Click Here It looks like Arnold is not only in an elevator here,it looks like he brought his own elevators too😂,in the pic posted by Philip Z he's clearly much shorter than Hemsworth but now he seems to have grown a few inches?
Editor Rob
He's likely on some wee platform there.
Philip Z said on 28/Aug/23

Footwear isn't visible, but 5ft 11 range still checks out for Arnold.
Dmeyer said on 10/Jun/23
5-10,75 is possible but 5-10,25-10,5 IS likelyer 5-10,5 listing might be better, you just changed him to 10,75
188 CM Legend said on 10/Jun/23
Excellent downgrade! Now it's time to hit Brad Pitt with the quarter-inch downgrade too! I'd bet good ole Arnie edges Brad out with similar footwear too.

Hong said on 29/May/23
Click Here Wow in this video from 1989 Arnold is actually looking his listed height beside 6ft4 Kevin Nealon, in fact he could be 6ft2? he doesn't seem to be wearing high heels neither.

Kevin Nealon wasn't standing in good posture in this video .Here is a pic you can see their respective whole bodies Kevin Nealon and Arnold standing in similar postures = Click Here
Slamo said on 8/Jun/23
Any chance of Mike ohearn Rob?
Slamo said on 7/Jun/23
I’d say he’s no taller than 5-10.5 today. He’s actually starting to look short in terms of 6-0 and over guys around him.
Phil said on 5/Jun/23
Anyone who has watched Pumping Iron knows that Arnold was at least 5 inches shorter than 6'5" Lou Ferrigno.
viper said on 5/Jun/23
Oh wow, just noticed the downgrade
The Height Guy said on 5/Jun/23
Wow Arnie now under 5'11 now Rob! what made you go with the quarter inch downgrade?
Editor Rob
He's been holding onto that for several years, but I think it's clear he's struggling to look a full 5ft 11 in last 2 years.
Gordon 174cm said on 2/Jun/23
Watching Schwarzeneggers new show on Netflix and checked out his height with his costars.

You have travis can winkle Down as a quarter of an inch taller than Arnold but in this picture he looks a couple of inches shorter? Click Here

Could Arnold be sub 5 foot 10 these days?
Editor Rob
He's been struggling with 5ft 11 in last few years now, but a flat 5ft 10?

Actually see the other guy behind Arnie: Click Here, he once claimed on Twitter to be 6ft 1 and does also make Arnie look barely over 5ft 10 there.
Nile Song said on 1/Jun/23
I agree Hong, he still does look 6'1. It seems unlikely he lost noticeable height by age 41 there, so not much over that for sure.
Faramir said on 1/Jun/23
Ultra-mesomorphs can be hard to tell, height-wise. I will go with 186 cm/6'1.25" peak for Arnold. Hard to say how tall he would measure today if he stood ramrod-straight. Definitely lost lots of height, though.
Hong said on 31/May/23
@Nile Song, agreed Nealon's posture is bad,but even allowing for that Arnold is still looking a solid 6ft1 in comparison, "which BTW is what height I would list him at peak.But now he's looking more 5ft10.5.
5'7 and a fraction said on 31/May/23
I am starting to think he might be below 5'11 these days based on that clip video with Dolph. He's not even standing badly and still struggles to looks over 179.
Nile Song said on 30/May/23
Hong, it seems as though Kevin is slouching pretty heavily the entire time, like the suits are forcing some odd posture. Even Kevin's legs look bent more than Arnold's, although it's hard to tell what is part of the suit and what isn't. When standing up straight I think the height difference would have been over 2.5 inches at that point.
Hong said on 29/May/23

Omg!!! He’s definitely about 5-10 next to dolph. I met dolph in Manchester in December. I was maybe 2” on him. It’s on my Instagram. I’m 6-4.25. Arnie is shoooooort. Can’t be over 5-10.

@Hong. Indeed. Watching the film arnie never looks less than 4” shorter. It’s difficult to gauge with no ground to see. Some parts he looks over 5” shorter. Absolutely don’t think he was over 6-1 peak.
Hong said on 25/May/23
Mick Fleetwood at 6ft6 would have been around 5 inches taller than Arnold at 6ft1,so that sounds about right.

I found a shocking revelation. This man has a photo of his dad with Arnold back in 89' and he states his father was 2 inches taller than Arnold and stood 6ft 2, which would make Arnie about 6ft at the time.

Here is his post: Click Here

His photo is posted on the page but I won't post for privacy reasons but it's a minimum 2 inch difference.

Johan 185 cm said on 16/May/23
The only thing that troubles me about his peak of 6'1.5" is that alot of actors in that period who were tall said he wasn't anymore than 5'11". Sarah Douglas who is what? 5'10"? Said in heels she was taller and surprised that he allowed it, Kevin Sorbo dismissed him as being 5'11" and then Richard E Grant commenting that he was under 6'0".

It makes me wonder if he wasnt really 6'1" peak and already in the 6'0" range in his 40's.

Today he really doesnt look much more than 5'10", 5'10.5" at most.
Hong said on 13/May/23

I think Arnie peak would be the same height as Cristiano Ronaldo today (I give CR7 6”1.5 btw). I think they would be peak height twins.
Hong said on 23/Apr/23
Click Here I noticed at this event from 1992 Arnold seemed to be wearing an average thickness shoe heel,he is looking around 6ft flat in comparison to others at the event.
Slamo said on 19/Apr/23
Way more evidence to suggest he’s sub 5-11 now. Arnie screw your freedom Schwarzenegger isn’t as tall as people think. Peak height 6-1 is absolutely the maximum.
Johan 185 cm said on 18/Apr/23
186 cm Peak rounded to 6'1.5" and today he is heading towards 5'10.5"-179 cm.
7 cm loss while alot does seem possible. All the heavy lifting with little rest and juiced to the gills, I wouldnt be surprised if he was already 184 cm in his mid 40s.
Andrey Lykov said on 16/Apr/23
5.11 today. Not taller than 6 feet peak. Just look at him with 5.11 Robert Patrick.

Arnold even as an older man was a chunk taller than Chris Tucker. I'd give him 6'3½ peak height. Maybe 5'11 - 6'0 now.
Arch Stanton said on 12/Apr/23
David Goggins and Mike O'Hearn would get reasonable traffic I think if they were added Rob! Goggins claims 6 ft 1, and if you look at old pictures of him when he was near 300 pounds, he could pass for bigger! The current Bing result is currently 6 ft 6 LOL, I think it was even 6 ft 7 a while back!!
Shalpemodurator said on 3/Apr/23
He's around 5'11 nowadays but peak was definitely 6'1 1/2
Mr_T said on 2/Apr/23
He looks 4 inches shorter than Ngannou.
Top of Arnolds head is just under his eyes so matches up with Arnold being the 6ft he says he is now.
Plus Ngannou has big trainers on and Arnold flat loafers.
RichardSpain said on 28/Mar/23
185cm barefoot when he was young in movies like Hercules in New York, Conan, Terminator...not more than that not less than that. With shoes 188cm

184 cm in his 50's years old, barefoot

180/181 cm barefoot today in his 70's years..
Britney Spears fan 2000 said on 26/Mar/23
Ok I've actually know I guy who has met him not long ago only a few years back now and took a pic with him and Arnold was shorter now I'm 5"8 and there is no way he's that much taller than I am so I think that is about right he definitely not 6"2 but heavy weights out pressure on joints peak height I'd say 6 foot 1
Hong said on 25/Mar/23
Click Here @Crypto139 is this the guy your talking about? and by the way if anybody has footwear advantage it's Arnold.
Crypto139 said on 24/Mar/23
Looks similar to Andrew Yang atm, and Yang has been listed as anything from 5 foot 9 to 5 foot 11. Typically listed at 5 foot 10 though. Not gonna vote yet as I can't see footwear and such.
Alex C. said on 18/Mar/23
in the 70s photos next to franck zane (5ft 9) Arnold looks just 4in tall so a very strong 6ft is possible for him but no more.

in his younger years I would give him 6ft 75 peak and something like 5ft 10 1/2 in 2023, he retains a slight sense of size like a person approaching 5ft 11 but not reaching it.
Slamo said on 14/Mar/23
Would say barefoot he’s shy of 5-11 now.
5'7 and a fraction said on 11/Mar/23
I think his current height listing should be left for now, but I definitely wouldn't be suprised if he measured under it.
TheDon91 said on 7/Mar/23
Around 6'1" Peak, under 5'11" these days. Decades of lifting heavyweights take a toll on your spine.

His prime height was 186 cm or 6'1.25 when he won the Olympia.

Losing 3 inches is something rare , in Arnold's case ,after watching a lot of his old movies again and again,i think he was somewhere between 186/184 cm ,now he's around 180/181 but due to his bad posture he looks under that
houss said on 26/Feb/23

Do you think you will downgrade arnold in the future Rob? to like say 179.7cm ? or lower if you feel he shrunk more.
Editor Rob
Likely, question is 10.5 now what he is or could he still stretch up to almost 5ft 11.

@Rob Paddy Pimblet is angry with you. Arnie deserves a downgrade
Jkiller said on 1/Feb/23
In his prime there's no doubt in my mind he was 6'.11.5 (186.5cm), nowadays he's 5'11.5 (181cm). I honestly can't believe it'd be possible for him to lose THAT much height, any lower than 180.5cm is very doubtful.
berta said on 31/Jan/23
i didnt realise his daughter was pusching 180 cm. I thought she was around legit 5´9. That explains how he can look so short beside her. Its pretty clear that arnold is the one that looking taller still. If she is 180 then arnold cant be shorter than his current listing. But i have a feelinjg that measurement she gave was early morning and in the afternoon she is closer to 178, just a guess.

Looking at that photo again, her footwear actually looks half an inch thinner than Arnie's, so maybe they are pretty close in height barefoot.

He only looked 2.5 inches taller than Sly in Escape Plan. Sly would have been 5'8.25 tops by that point so Schwarzenegger was 5'10.75 max. And that film came out ten years ago. He'd definitely be closer to a flat 5'10 by now, no way he'd smbe 5'11.

LMAO. How is possible, that the average guess is 180.6 for current?

Because most people have no idea about height. Those same people think he was never over 6'0" and is still over 5'11." They don't know his competitive bodybuilding career and how tall he once was (barefoot) and they don't know that a human CAN lose a LOT of height due to hip replacement, back surgeries and AGE.

Yeah its time for a 5´10 1/2 listing. Arnold is a guy that could measure taller than he looks but he can look like 5´10 guys these days. He and ford could be identrical now. Both 179 cm. Never under 184,5 peak and never over 187. Still believe 1/4 inch downgrade could be closer peak.

Arnold could have passed for nearly 6ft in Dark Fate, the most recent of the Terminator films.

Peak 6ft1.5 and today - 5ft11.75.
GRXj17 said on 25/Nov/22
6ft1 and a half peak whilst young then dropped to 6ft1 "action star" Arnold as we all know and appreciate because of all the weight lifting. Kept shrinking with age. I have no doubt he fell to 6ft range now and possibly even less. He seems to be wearing some heavy gear shoes in all of his well known movies. Probably to make him appear 6 foot 2. He was never 6 foot 2 in my opinion but probably measured 6ft1 and a half at one point in his life and decided to stick with the measurement for his whole career. Hollywood people just rounded it up to 6'2 to make him appear even more badass altho by the time he was in Hollywood he already shrinked a bit. He looks very much shorter next to 194cm Bill Duke in Commando and when I look at him I see similar build lenght to myself and im 186cm. Minus the muscles ofcourse if we look from the point off view of his legs and torso lenght.

Maybe 183.8 is a low guess but maybe It was his extralow. 184-184-8 cm was his peak range. I'm sure about this after seeing thousands of photos, movies, reading reviews and what people guess about him. My eyes don't lie and I think I'm prety good guessing heights maybe not as good as Rob ; but being honest I think Rob has Arnold too high.

Peter 180cm said on 7/Oct/22
So he was not even 6'1 as I'm posting here. 6'1= 185.47 and Arnold looked always somewhere 183.8-184-5 in his peak days. Soy about 6'0.5 was his height and today he is 5'10.5 max

valek said on 14/Oct/22
Not agree. Arnold looks sub 6'1. Even If Cameron was a legit 6'2 and slouching, Arnold is with good posture. Arnold looks a good 6'0 there. As I said he probably was around 6'0.5 and 6'0.75 maybe his max in his day

Measured 6-1.5 by a guy who didn't like him and the measurement apparatus measured everyone a half inch lower than their claim.

Pretty beleivable.

If the measurement apparatus measured everyone only a half inch lower than their claim then that's imo the proof this stadiometer was noticiably generous because lots of this guys by comparisons some internauts posted here had their official height credited at least 2 inches taller than their real height ...

Read the article of this guy who met Sergio and talk about his height ,also read the comments later in the forum under the article .... Click Here

James Cameron 6'2 with Arnold. IMO arnold is no less than 6'1.
nickleby said on 11/Oct/22
Probably 6ft 0.5 at peak, can't see 6ft 1 and certainly not above that. He had long legs though so gave the illusion of being taller than other competitors of similar height when they all posed in trunks. I noticed he often wore trunks with a higher waistline than others, making his his legs seem even longer, and him taller. Neat trick.
About 5ft 11, or even very slightly under, now seems about right.
Still the best proportioned bodybuilder ever, in my opinion.
IceCold2 said on 11/Oct/22

He didn’t look taller than 6ft.05 at his peak barefoot he’s probably bang on 5ft11 flat now and around 6ft in shoes

Maybe a strong 6'0" at peak.Nothing above this mark .
Peter 180cm said on 7/Oct/22
I believe all his claims are height in shoes. About 6'1 peak 184-185cm is fair but i wouldn't say anything less. Worst case scenario looked a solid 6'0.

6ft peak but may have dropped a further half inch after lifting/training, he is pictured with a 6ft girl and looked about the same yet he was wearing biker boots, he doesn’t look taller than me and I’m 5ft 11.5 at my extreme low ie after a hard day at work cutting up logs, but of course 6.1 in my work boots
Orginal said on 1/Oct/22
Arnold should be closer to 5'10.5 nowadays, in his peak def around 6'0.5 or 6'0.75 though, his height declined a lot.

Personally don’t think he was over 6-1 more a 6-0 guy. Now imo he’s under 5-11. If a 6-2 range guy has biker boots on he’s getting to 6-4 territory. Arnie 100 percent never looked that range.

@ berta-- Arnold leaves a slightly taller impression with me than Costner did. I usually guess Costner around the 184 mark at peak at about 183.8. Arnold I feel was about 185 on the nose at 6 and 7/8. Good enough for a 6-1 claim.
berta said on 27/Sep/22
He and kevin costner was very close in height at peak. I would say both men 1/8 over 6´1. Today arnold can look 5´10 alot. He measure taller than he look. We can see it the few times he have posed for fun that he suddenly look 1 inch taller than when he stands normal. I think he look 178,5 - 179 today but can still measure 180.

Hi Rob. Have you considered adding Joseph Baena? He is a great guy (Arnold's best son, very humble, hard working and pretty much into bodybuilding. He has claim he is 6'0 maybe 6'1, but the 6'1 maybe sounds unreal of course.. On youtube with Mike O'hearn 6'2. At 2:35 he says I'm 6'0 maybe 6'1.
He looks about 2 inches and a bit shorter than Mike O'Hearn. I would say about 5'11.5 for Joe!

When it comes to white dudes they were always 2-4 inches taller giants when they’re young, of course and Trump was a godzilla. But seriously Arnold was 6’ MAX at his peak height. And yes, white people are the tallest on average but they don’t shrink so much like to 2-3-4 inches as they get old, come on.

And there’s definitely some bias towards whites and against others, take Steven Seagal and Dolph Lundren for example. Steven Seagal was guessed only as 2 cms taller when young and Dolph was guessed 4cm taller, though Steven Seagal is 5 years older than Dolph.
Editor Rob
Seagal in person looked a bit taller than Dolph did.

Arnold was know to be very massive(one of the reasons why he gains lots of time Olympia) and 235 lbs in competition for a guy around 5'11.5"/ 6'0" who had large shoulders and enormous chest is very realist.If he was almost 6'2" at 235 lbs he wouldn't have had his big mass=

Here Calum Von Moger also 135 lbs and also 260 off season listed 6'1.5" in Celebheights
Calum's Chest = 48 inches / Arnold's chest = 57 inches ... Calum's legs = 26 inches / Arnold's legs = 28.5 inches .... Logically both guys can not have the same weight and height


Congrats, Pierre thinking that through. But I found that the rumours of Arnold having a 36” pant inseam interesting. He always criticized for having less developed legs due to the extra length maybe. Average 6 foot guy has 33”-34” inseam. Can’t see Arnold having less than that. Obviously he was a Mesomorph who but on substantial amount of mass and naturally large-framed.

Arnold was realistically 6'1¼-6'1½" as a professional bodybuilder with normal posture. Standing exaggeratingly tall maybe 6'2''in his bare feet. Who cares how much he has loss since then. He was just north of 265 in the off-season during competitions. A 5'10'' man would look comically fat at that weight or even 20 pounds less.

Arnold is definitely closer to the camera in houss picture. Arnies head is not that big lol.

If we look that guy next to Zachary Levi, he's eyeline is on 5'5 line, and his eyeline to tophead can't be more than 4.5in, so he appears 5'9.5 there Click Here

But, Zach is not standing straight there, so my guess is that guy is no more than 5'9. He's eyeline is also 3in below Zach's mouthlevel, when Zach is slouching, which indicates easy 6in difference, when both men standing in similar postures.

Why dont you ask Manko or read back in 2018 what he thought when he met Arnold. ManKo posted here photos. He is is a weak 5'11 guy and met Arnold in 2018, well he said Arnold is max 5'11 in 2018. What about the Nfl player a 5'10.1/4 guy who looked taller than Arnold. A lot of people has said Arnold was like 5'10.25.5'10.5 in 2019. And I dont need to meet him, he clearly looks in the 5'10 range max. closer to 5'10. You dont know how tall is an honest 5'11 guy. Arnold was about 6'0.5 in his peak. Wake up
Believe me i Don't care what you think at all , i know the guy isn't a layer because he's not height maniac as almost all of us in this site , he has no reason to lie to me , and the real reason why i believe him it's because i saw his measurement video , so you should wake up

@Pierre good pic of Hasselhoff, he's looking what a genuine 6ft4 tall guy looks in comparison to someone in the 5ft11 range.If Hasselhoff was in old Hollywood he would probably have been listed as 6ft6 just so fake 6ft4 claimers could get away with their false claims.But a it's 2022 now and it's almost impossible to get away with exaggerated hight claim's.If Arnold was just starting off now there is no way he would have got away with claiming 6ft2.The guy in my opinion was similar to say Bradley Cooper,Chris pine,people in that height range somewhere between 6ft and 6ft1.

peak 185,5-186 in the afternoon is my guess and probably 181 today if he stands tall but can look 179-180. He is a guy that measure taller than he looks. 187 peak isnt impossible but he looked shorter 95 procent of the time.

Click Here Here's Arnold with 6ft1 listed Karl Malden,taken in to account Malden's age at the time 65 he may have lost a bit of height by then,Arnold is looking pretty similar in height to Malden.

Happy birthday to you Arnie! When he was young Arnold could easily pass for a strong 6'1" guy, but often smaller with 6'2" or 6'2,5" guys. He said himself a precise 6'1 3/4", which I think morning height (187 cm). So his evening height was probably around 6'1". The guiness book (a serious official book ) described Arnold at 6'1" and weighing at 236 lbs (107 kg). I think 1,87m and 1,85m was the peak and evening heights.
Now at 75 years old, he's probably around 5'11" , but hard to say what is his morning and evening height.
If he lost 5 or 6 cm,(2 or 2,5 inches) it's already a lot!

If Arnold was really as tall as 6'1.5" peak by Jay Leno ,then how much tall would Johnny Depp here by Jay Leno? Click Here ...

Same thing here= how much tall would David Hasselhoff by Jay Leno if Arnold was really 6'1.5" ?

Arnold around 6'0" peak
Johan Gf said on 29/Jul/22
Arnold clearly was a 6'0.5 guy using good footwear in his peak so it was easy to pass a 6'1 guy minimu, but the most I see when he was young the most I'm sure he was somewhere 6 range weak 6'1. You can say a strong 6'0 or a weak 6'1, somewhere this range.

5'11.5 Peak
5'9.5 Now
Johan Gf said on 27/Jul/22
I just stay with the guess from a guy who posted some years ago a photo with Arnold saying he was 184-185 (so 6'0.5 range) tops in his peak.. This guy said he is 180.5 morning height and 179 range at night and Arnold was slightly shorter. I think it was in 2017-2018. Arnold is like 5'10 now and peak around 6'0.5, luckyly weak 6'1
Original said on 27/Jul/22
184cm range in his peak. 6'0.5" to 6'0.75".

viper said on 25/Jul/22
So Pierre, why do you think that guy said Arnold looked 6-1

When people are not used to guessing height they are sometimes a bit generous,they forget some parameters like posture shoes ...Plus he was certainly impressed by the presence of Arnold who is a very popular celebrity.
Johan Gf said on 26/Jul/22
viper said on 25/Jul/22
Most of the population doesnt even know how tall is a real height and being Arnold, maybe the guy was cautious or shy to say what he really felt. Probably the guy is even shorter than tjhe 6'3 he claim himself.
Johan Gf said on 25/Jul/22
Pierre said on 25/Jul/22
The 6'1.5 peak story is a hoax to defend his claim. He was luckly a weak 6'1 man in his best day.

A good pic is better than comments.The 6'3" guy standing barefoot plus droping height still towers over Arnold standing in good posture and wearing sneakers .It reminds me curiously of this 6'1.5" peak measurement story...
Johan Gf said on 24/Jul/22
@Rob After visiting pages I have to say this listing is totally far from reality. Arnold 5'11 now? I really like your videos and other celebpages where you've listed so many actors and public persons but Arnold is 5'10 luckly now? Peak neither was 6'1.5 maybe weak 6'1.

In the comments this guy is claiming 6'3" ,in his posture he drops almost an inch ,Arnold stands straight with sneakers advantage .If Arnold was 6'1" he would look about as high as this tall guy in the photo ,but this guy still looks like he towers over him in the photo .My guess is a bit less generous,maybe 5'10.5"?

Arnold is the same height as 6-1 Bill Clinton in lots of photos on the web. Arnold with 6’ President Reagan showed him to be at least an inch taller. Photos of Arnold with 6-2 George H W Bush showed a similar height. With 5-11 George Bush, Arnold looked about an inch taller. No way is he 5-10.

@Space = Even if Tom Hanks had a fraction more shoe than Arnold Arnold is hardly more than 6'0" by this comparison.

Here Arnold next to a young Triple H = Click Here Triple H here drops a bit height but still looks around an inch taller than Arnold in the photo(look at their respective eyes ) .Don't forget Arnold also wears lots of time cow boy boots since a long time.I don't say he was wearing this type of boots next to Triple H but it's a possibility.
Space said on 27/Jun/22
@pierre

I can’t speak for the picture with Tom Hanks, maybe he was wearing thicker shoes than Arnold. All I know is, Arnold was over 6’0” until some time in the 2000s.

Arnold looked the exact same height as 6’0.75”-6’1” Steve Austin in 1999 in the ring together. Arnold only looked slightly shorter than 6’1.5-6’1.75” peak Triple H as well.

Arnold looked 5’11.75” with Joe Manganiello and Hulk Hogan in 2015.

Peak Arnold was easily 6’1”. He looked 6’1” even into the 90s as well. It wasn’t until the 2010s where he dipped under 6’0”. He looks under 5’11” easily today.

Could only look 6-2 in films in his boots. He wasn’t 6-2 barefoot. That’s an absolute fact.
