6'0.5"-6'1" in his younger days. Today around 5'11" at almost 70 years old.

Just watched him opposite Sean Connery in 1971's THE ANDERSON TAPES. He is tall now as an older man, and he was tall as a young man. He was 28 when he did TAPES, and standing next to strong 6'2" Connery, Walken looked to be a inch & change shorter. I can buy 6'1" for him as a young man. Today, he still looks close to the mark--maybe more six flat than 6'1", but he's still fairly tall.

Likewise, in 1997's EXCESS BAGGAGE and in 1996's THE FUNERAL next to legit 6'2" co-star Benicio Del Toro, Walken looked 1" - 1 1/2" shorter than Del Toro. Love to watch Walken--he makes good films great, and he makes otherwise dull affairs enjoyable experiences.

Peak Height: 6ft0.25in (184 cm)
Height: 5ft11.5in (182 cm)

Could look 6ft1 when he was young due to build/hair.
Spence says on 13/Aug/11
Rob you need to change his peak height to 184. There is just too much evidence he was between 6 and 6'1 at peak. He looks almost 4 inches taller than De Niro in Deer Hunter. He has lost about 3/4 of an inch of height.

6'0 on his prime seems right

6'1" IN his prime, NOT ON his prime.

Shut up you muppet. O and I are right next to each other.

Doubt he's ever been over 6'0'' just look at his hair, lol
Spence says on 27/Jun/11
184 minimum peak. I think he was just under 6'1 at peak. He is still about 6. He looked taller than Leo in Catch Me if You Can which proves my point that Leo is 5'11

James, Roger Moore was close to 60 in A View to a Kill so he may shrunk a bit?

Close to 6"1 in his prime...in Wedding Crashers he looked a solid 6"0

In view to a kill i thought christopher for sure looked under 6'0
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 29/May/11
184-185cm prime
182-183cm today

6'0.75 peak 5'11.75 today
James says on 24/Feb/11
He's skinny that is why he looks taller that and his hair. Geez no wonder he's had 6'2 sightings at estimates.
Big MIke says on 22/Feb/11
Yea I thought 6ft when he was in THe Deer Hunter he was the second tallest guy besides Axel who I think is about 6ft2 but Chris was always thin really thin in The Deer Hunter in Balls of Furry too in Click though he only looked an inch taller than 5 ft 10 Sandler I would say 5 ft 11

I am sorry but next to Roger Moore was no more than 187cm at his peak Walken did not look a hair over 6'.

Also View to a kill was made in 1985 so by then Roger Moore could have been a fraction shorter than his peak of 187cm.
Spence says on 30/Jan/11
No 184 possibly 185 on a good day at peak..we know he was at least 183 at peak
somebody new says on 20/Jan/11
183-4 on a good day. We cant argue for 1 cm... It's clear he's in the 6ft. range
Spence says on 15/Jan/11
184 in Deer Hunter
James says on 4/Jan/11
like i said with roger moore did not look over 183cm.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 2/Jan/11
184cm at peak
182-183cm today

Looked 6"1ish in The Deer Hunter
Spence says on 19/Dec/10
In True Romance he looks 184 still too maybe 6'0.25 to 6'0.5...I think he was slightly above 6 at peak how much I'm not sure
somebody new says on 19/Dec/10
the man is 66 years old now. Maybe in his prime average could've been slightly shorter than now?
James says on 16/Dec/10
Yeah Spence I was going to say he could pull of looking 6'1 in the Deer Hunter but that is just because he was skinny. Legit 6' at peak.
Spence says on 13/Dec/10
I think he was 184 at peak and 182 now...185 is a stretch cause he was so thin
somebody new says on 12/Dec/10
he could've measured 5'11,75 to 6'0.25'' if he claims 6 feet.
James says on 5/Dec/10
In Deer Hunter no taller than 6ft most likely.
somebody new says on 5/Dec/10
what was he listed here before the claim was found ?

[Editor Rob: he was 6ft 0.5, then 0.25 and finally 6ft]
somebody new says on 5/Dec/10
the best scene to compare them was at the end of the movie where DeNiro was pushing Walken to the wall. Ofcourse he'll look taller..
Spence says on 4/Dec/10
He looks 6'1 In Deer Hunter thats why he's so much bigger than De Niro who was 5'9
James says on 2/Dec/10
Spence says on 26/Nov/10
Anything under 184 cm peak is wrong

Possibly 184cm in his 20's. though in the 1980's clearly with Roger Moore he was not over 183cm.
Spence says on 26/Nov/10
Anything under 184 cm peak is wrong
James says on 21/Nov/10
At his peak I doubt even at the dead of night that he would have measured under 6'0.
Somebody New says on 20/Nov/10
that Anonymous was me
Anonymous says on 19/Nov/10
maybe his lowest at the evening could be a bit less than 6ft. I mean usualy people dont know they're taller at the morning and they just measure at some point of the day.
James says on 18/Nov/10
if moore is not over 6'1 than that would have made walken 5'11.5?
somebody new says on 17/Nov/10
I've read somewhere bout james bond actors. the site said Moore claimed 6'1'' and that his wax figure is 6'1'' without shoes...
James says on 15/Nov/10
today could be 5'11 flat.

The most he could have been was possibly 6ft.25 (184cm) in his 20's maybe on a good day? But I still think 183cm is closer for his peak.

In View to a kill was only in his early 40's and was clearly 1.5 under Roger Moore so unless he sustained some bad inury he was 185 or even 184cm at his peak and he looked more than just 2cm under Moore.

the guy is 67 so i doubt he would have lost 2 inches from his peak. more like 2-3cm.
somebody new says on 11/Nov/10
yeah looked at least an inch or more shorter than Moore, who himself claimed 6'2'' morning height. That would make him 6'1'' evening. Walken was 6ft (give or take a tad)at his peak and now looks 5'11ish.
Danimal says on 11/Nov/10
Definitely 6'1" in his younger days... Today at strong 5'11"..
Spence says on 10/Nov/10
Roger Moore was almost 6'2 at peak...In Deer Hunter Walken looks 184-85 easily
James says on 6/Nov/10
he was not 6'1 at his peak. In my opnion no more than 6'0 (183cm) look at him in comparison to 6'1.5 Roger Moore in View to a Kill.

Today 5'11 (180-181cm)
Peak 6'0 (183cm)
