Dom Deluise sat with Stu Vanormer 6'3" at my son's christening and Dom appeared to be not more than 2 or 3 inches shorter!

Described as "nearly 6 feet tall" in 1991. Click Here Frank2 says on 15/Jun/09
Never met Reed. RisingForce says on 15/Jun/09
His heels were massive, in the film gator you can see how out of proportion his legs look. His legs look a couple of inches too long for his body and his heels look like stilt. I'd say 2 1/2" for the heel is accurate.
Frank2, have you ever met Jerry Reed? He's listed at 6'0.5" on every site and from what I remember he was similar in height to Burt in the Smoky and Bandit films even when both were wearing cowboy boots. I don't remember the difference between them in Gator. Maybe Reed's 6'0.5" listings are BS just like Dom's 5'11.5" listings. Frank2 says on 14/Jun/09
I worked on SHAMUS. Reynolds was about 5'10" and wore custom boots with 2 1/2" heels plus at least an inch of lifts inside. That boosted him to 6'1 1/2". RisingForce says on 14/Jun/09
I can't see Burt at any less than 5'11" peak. He looked too tall even considering his massive lifts. Now he looks more in the 5'9", 5'10" range to me. Frank2 says on 13/Jun/09
Dean was 5'10" as was Dom. Burt always wore huge lifts sometimes boosting him by as much as four inches. Barefoot he was about 5'10".
Dom was one of the nicest people in showbiz. RisingForce says on 12/Jun/09
Burt Reynolds had as much as 3 inches on him in the Cannonball Run outtakes. Of course Burt wears lifts, but that told me that the 5'11.5" that Dom is usually listed at had to be BS.
Dom was atleast as tall as Dean Martin who I'd bet was atleast 5'10". |
