Swayze did have atleast 3 inches on him, but Swayze had bigger heels on his shoes.

Sandler is 5'10''. Bouncer says on 24/Aug/09
Nah, i don't think he really was 5'7, maybe he struggled just a little with 5'8 at the end of his life because of his health problems and his enormous weight which gave him bad posture and impression, too. Danimal says on 23/Aug/09
No way was he 5'8". Patrick Swayze had 2-3" on him easily in their famous Chippendale sketch on SNL. 5'9" Adam Sandler had at least 2" on Chris. I give Chris 5'7" MAX and to the poster said Chrish weighed as low as 225 pounds at some point, well, you have NO IDEA how OFF you are. We NEVER saw Chris at less than 240 pounds. He may have died at 296 pounds, but he was WELL OVER that 300 pound mark at times. T.J. says on 21/Aug/09
Teddy89, Chris Farley was a very strong 5'8".
Almost looked 5'9" next to Dan Aykroyd. I could never see Chris anything under 5'8" Teddy89 says on 9/Aug/09
I'd say Farley wasn't really a full 5-8, more like 5-7 1/2. MIKESOWELL says on 17/Jan/09
Did I say the Medical Examiner lie??!? He was 296 pounds when he died. And he was 5 foot 8. But people can be a smidget taller or shorter but still listed at a specific height. I was 6 foot 1.5 inches exact but listed at 6 foot 2. I improved my posture and am now a smidget over 6 foot 2. Bouncer says on 7/Jan/09
5'8 in height and 296 pounds in weight were the exact words of the medical examer after his death, why should he lie? MIKESOWELL says on 7/Jan/09
Farley looked to me to be about 5 foot 8.5 inches tall and his weight in his prime (1992-96) was about 230-250 lbs with a dip in '95 to like maybe 225. Look at Farley in Billy Madison, especially when he took his shirt off. He wasn't that fat. By 1997 however he was grossly bloated and his SNL appearance he was about 290 or so. Had a dangerously large belly. A photo of him in a People's magazine in November 1997 scared me senseless. His stomach was hanging SO LOW. Dead a month later. RIP. D. Ray Morton says on 22/May/08
Any word on a photo? Heightdetective says on 27/Apr/08
5ft 8 is just right. At the time on his death the medical examer said: "Farley was 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weighed 296 pounds."
Great actor, RIP chris175 says on 22/Feb/08
yeah richard, i sort of thought that too, he is a strong 5-8, could have been 5-9 rip chris Chris says on 2/Jan/08
5'7ish hes only about an inch or 2 taller then spade in Black Sheep which i am watching right now RICHARD says on 14/Jul/07
I had know idea he was only 5'8. He looked taller like 5'10 to me. RIP Chris Ancient aztec guy says on 5/Jul/07
Farley had to be at least three inches taller than Spade. He Hollered a lot in his movies. That was hilarious. Anonymous says on 3/Jul/07
I was watching "Tommy Boy" today. Spade must be like no more than 5'5"... glenn says on 12/Mar/07
yeah,i thought i sent this. Danimal says on 11/Mar/07
Glenn, you met Farley? glenn says on 11/Mar/07
great guy too. Anthony says on 11/Mar/07
5'8 seems right. Damn, I miss him. Danimal says on 10/Mar/07
Patrick Swayze had about 2" on him in their famous Chippendale skit on SNL and Swayze was 5'10" at that time (early 90's). It's said that died at around 300 pounds or very close to it. trueheight says on 10/Mar/07
he was at least 3in taller than Spade in Tommy Boy and Black Sheep - great ensemble. Also 3in shorter than Rob Lowe in TB Anonymous says on 16/Jan/07
He was a friend of mine and I don't think he was only 5'8" - I'm 5'7" and he never seemed that close to my height. I'm a girl so my heels were always taller than his, and I wasn't looking him right in the eye. Alex says on 5/Jan/07
5'8 I agree on. He was def a 300lber or damn near it. 290 something he weighed before he died I believe. Danimal says on 10/Aug/06
No, he was 5'8". Glenn says on 10/Aug/06
Great guy.5-8 to 5-8.5. Sam says on 9/Aug/06
Yeah he was problably a good 5'8. His size in spirit though was way bigger. Matt says on 10/Jun/06
Yeah, he was not very tall. He always looked a little shorter then Sandler. 5'8 sounds about right mcfan says on 25/Apr/06
Last night I saw his biography on A&E and they said he was 5'9 -- Maybe with his sneakers on. Jody says on 29/Dec/05
I would agree totally with this. He was a big fella too. 175cm16andgrowing says on 2/Dec/05
I didn't know he died... but the 300lbs and 5'8'' seem about right. |
