Danimal says on 9/Mar/10
Yes, Vegas, Hogan never lost any height.
well he certainly didn't lose 5 inches and stands at 6'1 now like you tried to pass off in early january, if that was the case hogan stood as tall as matt morgan once (comparing both men to abyss) and thats just not possible, morgan was an ncaa center, hogan was shorter than an nba small forward at peak Anonymous says on 9/Mar/10
Rob, check Richards clip from TNA...maybe 6 feet 4 now and 6 feet 6 peak Rob...when he straightens up he hits I feel! Danimal says on 9/Mar/10

Ronster says on 6/Mar/10
Abyss is at most 2 inches shorter than Morgan from that video, which would make him a legit 6'8" because Morgan is 6'10" for real. Anyone here notice on TNA how Hulkster even with his knees bent quite a bit was within 2 inches of Abyss in height? How do you explain that when some of you so called experts say Hulk is only 6'4 or even less???? There is no answer for that, Hulk is still right in the 6'5-6'6" range no doubt. He just hardly ever stands up straight anymore because of his bad back and knees.
All of those are their heights in boots. We're going for barefoot, sorry budz. Frank says on 7/Mar/10
Ronster, Hogan was close to 2 inches shorter than Lennox Lewis was is listed @ 6ft 5 so there is no way hes 6ft 5 now Richard says on 7/Mar/10

Abyss looks 6'5 or 6'5.5 tops. Ghost says on 3/Mar/10
I think I remember seeing Abyss billed as 6'5 on the TNA website some time ago. Vegas says on 2/Mar/10
abyss always looked about 3 inches shorter than morgan Click Here speaking of morgans boots, these are the boots he wore just before coming to tna, they look the exact same style he wears today, wrestlers don't change their boots often, i saw eugene at a live show recently and he was still wearing the same boots that got splashed with paint in wwe years ago Click Here
i saw abyss at a live show in jan 2009 and he looked huge, he was still clearly shorter than morgan (they were tagging) but had he been on his own i would have estimated him taller from my seat given how much he towered over the security, he can't be far off his billed weight either JT says on 2/Mar/10

JT or somebody, can you do a comparison of the staredowns between Sting/Sid and Sting/Hogan from the video below?....
The camera angles are quite different but it still comes out pretty much to how it was in reality:

1/2 inch difference per this site:)
Here’s Abyss looking tall with Matt Morgan. Click Here Abyss’s footwear looks a little chunky, though Morgan has worn boots with a pretty good sized heel before. Didn’t someone post a pic of a tall fan with Abyss from Facebook or Myspace where Abyss looked only 6’5”? Danimal says on 1/Mar/10

HI OLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dicksock says on 28/Feb/10
Having seen Abyss live, I can tell you he is HUGE and looked taller than 6'5". There is no way in hell he is under 6'6". There was at least 2" between hogan and him. He also dwarfs Kennedy/Anderson. I would peg Abyss at around 6'7". That may surprise alot of people on here but I know lots of tall guys(6'5" and above) And he just looks taller than 6'5". Anonymous says on 28/Feb/10

To bad we can't see the footware situation with Hogan and Weathers. Something tells me Weathers had heels on, but, if he didn't, it's kinda daming for Hogan. He's only a little taller than than about a 6'1 guy and that was long time ago. He was only 6'4 at most and maybe less Clay says on 27/Feb/10

Hogan's posture is awful. He showed how tall he can still be when he stands straight with 6"5 Abyss. 6"2.5/6"3 with bad posture, 6"3.5/6"4 standing tall.
Agreed. miko says on 27/Feb/10

Hogan was nothing more than 6'3 1/2 at that time Vegas says on 26/Feb/10
i haven't seen this posted here before or indeed the movie in question, its from 1997, skip to 3 mins for a clip of hogan and carl weathers, rob has weathers at 6'1 which i think personally is a bit too low Click Here Anonymous says on 25/Feb/10
Hogan is the same height as Aikman. He just looks slightly shorter because he is doing his talking rant thing and he gets all skrunched up when he does that, he talks with his body if you will. While Aikman just stands there not saying anything and standing straight. If Hogan did a real stairdown with him you can see that he would be the same height, which means that even at age 57 and all he's been through he is still 6'4. Which means he was all of 6'6 back in the mid 70's. Remember back then he had as much hair as Aikman does now. Daniel_Sweden says on 25/Feb/10
Hogans peak measurements:
height: 6'5 (billed as 6'6, later as 6'7 and 6'8)
weight 1978-1979 305 pounds (billed as 330)
arms: 21.5 without a pump. (billed as 24')
how about that? Hogan was really big in the late 70's, really heavy not in his best shape more like bulked up.. miko says on 25/Feb/10

zach; ola is correct, hogan is in cowboys in that shot you posted, and btw thats from august of 1990 not the 1980s, its hogans first interview after coming back from filming suburban commando (kayfabe he was injured at the hands of john "earthquake" tenta) Click Here
i don't agree with ola that hogan hasn't lost height, he clearly has, how much is up for judgment though, if hogan wore boots like in that video today it would give us a far better idea Vegas says on 24/Feb/10

You're right, he's only 6'4. Hogan is 6'2.5 Zach says on 23/Feb/10
StillMOA how do you know he is in cowboy boots in the 80s picture? I cant imagine Hulk, particulary back then, wanting to wear cowboy boots and he appears to be in training gear too. He does look taller in the suits picture though.
From the horse's mouth: "I used to be 6ft 7, but after knee, neck and back surgeries I'm now about 6ft 4". Shaun says on 23/Feb/10
Abyss looks close to 6'6" to me. 6'8" is bull but Hogan did not look much shorter. I still think he is 6'4". Vegas says on 23/Feb/10
abyss and hogan will tag on march 8th to take on aj styles and flair, will be interesting to see how tall hogan looks in his ring gear miko says on 23/Feb/10
Abyss would have an inch on Hulk both standing straight.
If Abyss is 6"5 or over though, then Hulk can still pull off 6"4 standing tall. miko says on 23/Feb/10
Hogan 6"5.5 down to 6"3.5
McMahon 6"1.5 down to 6"0
McMahon clearly looks shorter in recent years. Triple H dwarfs him now. JT says on 23/Feb/10
Click Here Hogan looked anywhere from 0-2 inches shorter than Abyss. When the camera (which may not even be level) is that close to the wrestlers, the slightest swaying closer or away from the camera can have a big difference on perceived height. We also can't see the stances. We need a good full body shot of the two together in the ring and from a stationary camera on a platform. I do think Abyss would have Hogan by a little over an inch though. Chris says on 23/Feb/10
I just saw a Rent-A-Center Ad with Troy Aikman and Hulk Hogan. And, wow. Hogan's shrunk quite a bit. Aikman stood around 1-2 inches taller than Hogan. Aikman's official NFL height is 6'4". nWo4life says on 22/Feb/10

Zach, there is no height loss there. Hogan has cowboy boots in the first pic and the angle is horrible in the other...
3 - 3 1/2 inches taller than vince just a few years ago Click Here

so may i ask again, where is the height loss for hogan?! Mike- says on 22/Feb/10
Zach- Good one- I've often thought 3 inch loss for Hulkster was very realistic- clearly, after the amount of fusion surgery and knee operations, 3 inches is not unimagineable. Vegas says on 22/Feb/10
abyss is not 6'8, more like 6'5 range, he was billed at 6'10 when he first started in tna; hogan measures up there the same as he did next to the 6'5 aussie rules footballer, hogan is 6'3 range Joe says on 21/Feb/10

How tall is TNA wrestler Abyss? He's billed at 6"8.
For the first time in YEARS, we see a MAXIMUM POSTURE Hogan in this video face to face with Abyss - 25 seconds onwards. He looks around the same height as Abyss. Sometimes Abyss looks taller, sometimes Hulk looks taller.

I havent seen anyone say Vince was 6'2 at his peak. He was at least 6'1'' though. Obvious height loss being in his mid 60's. mask says on 17/Feb/10
Hulk Hogan was never taller than 6'5" at his peak in my opinion and is no shorter than 6'2.75" now!
There is a difference between people who are 6'5" with no shoes and people who are 6'5" with 2" shoes!
I've never met anyone of wwe or wwf but I played basketball for a long time and then I know what I say!
It's like in the NBA if a player stands let's say 6'5" w/out shoes and 6'6.25" in shoes they round up to 6'7" and in wrestling they round up even to 3/4" sometimes!
There are also some rare cases (10%) of athletes listed at the right height though! dicksock says on 17/Feb/10
Considering The Rock was just a hair under 6'4", I'd give Ladd around 6'7.5" or maybe 6'8" as he looks to be 4" taller if he could stand straight. He was definantly around 6'9" in his prime. Maybe a little under or over. Anything under 6'8" for a peak Ernie Ladd shouldn't even be taken seriously. Just like anything under 6'5" for Hogan. dicksock says on 17/Feb/10

Hogan has almost 3 inches on Vince McMahon who is 6'2" and Hogan looks almost an inch taller than Dwayne Johnson The Rock who is almost 6'4" so I would say that Hogan is a strong 6'4" nowadays, I would give him 6'4.5".
Vince has never been 6'2, not even close. he struggled with 5'11 - 6'0 even back in the early 90's (1 inch taller than 5'10 bulldog, and just barely taller than hitman)
HI OLAAAA!!!!!!!
Lol, Vince was legit 6'1.25"-6'1.5" at his peak IMO and looks to have lost a solid 1" through age. He was fractionally taller than weak 6'1" SCSA in the 1990's so 5'11" is just stupid! Danimal says on 15/Feb/10

There's an video of Hulk Hogan vs Bob Orton on youtube, i think it's from 1985, and you can clearly see that Hogan is aprox. 2.5/3" bigger than Orton.
Now there's enough evidence that Randy Orton today is about 2" taller than his dad. Taking in to account Bob's age and possible shrinkage, i think it's safe to say that Hogan, back in the day, was about 6.5.5", giving the fact that in his 30's he is about 3" taller than Orton sr. Now we all now randy is 6'4", maybe even half an inch taller, so add 1 to 1.5" to that and there you have it. Oh and before anybody start this talking about lifts and stuff. Boots where the same (sools ex.)
Now i haven't posted in a long time, because its useless with all the experts who've been posting for so long (get a live), but i've been reading posts on here very regularly, so i think i know what the general thoughts about Hogan's height on here are. Danimal says on 9/Feb/10

Show, only because U havent seen it doesnt mean it doesnt exist... i have seen it as well, and here u have it: Click Here 6'6 is BS anyway, he never appeared that tall. He had flair by 6 inches and 6'0 vince by 5. But i can buy 6'6 with SHOES, since all claims and listings are always with shoes.
Thanks for the link Ladd. I never implied it didn't excist, I just said I hadn't seen any proof of it, which I hadn't until you provided below link.
Ladd still appeared 6'6" next to the Rock in 1999 and he was already 61 years old there.
Ladd had bad knees throughout most of his wrestling career. He had to quit football because of it. His posture never appeared all that great during his wrestling career in the 70's and 80's. Anonymous says on 8/Feb/10
Hogan was in the same league as Hillbilly Jim, Jake Roberts, Zeus and Eartquake (had Hogan by 0.5-0.75) Ferrigno peak 6'5, Hogan is taller than him today. the rapp artist the game 6'3.5 listed her, Hogan is taller than him today. Hogans peak height was a strong 6'5, so get over it..Hogan was clearly taller than Muhammad Ali (6'2.5 on this site) yes Hogan was 6'5 barefoot and billed as 6'6 then later as 6'7 and from 1987-1989 as 6'8..as thunderlips in rocky 3 he was billed as nearly 7 feet tall..according to the movie producers of Rocky 3 Hogan was 8 inches taller than Stallone, the claims Stallone 5'10 and Hogan 6'6 i belive Stallone was back then 5'9 and Hogan 6'5...

I see Hogan today as 6'3 and no shorter. As for Peak, i can probably see 6'5 as a possibility.
Also, Foley does have a really bad posture so he would look alot shorter, with some Camera angle help.
6'9 for Andre? Nah. Ernie Ladd(6'9) shoots on Andre saying Andre is alot taller than 6'9. So Andre has to be taller than 6'10. Anonymous says on 1/Feb/10

Together with ppl we KNOW their heights (not other billed wrestlers) hogan never ever appear above 6'4 - thats a FACT. he was CLEARLY shorter next to studd than what fralic was, in fact 6'5 listed fralic was same height as studd. Hogan was also tops 6'4 if 6'2 listed otis wilson really is 6'2 but i think he is 6'1 ... either way, 6'4 is absolutely tops!! Me says on 28/Jan/10
Not that it really matters Vegas, but why would you think your opinion of what someone's height is, be more valid than what a police report says. Seriously though lets not get into one of these back and forth comment battles. I do not think it's worth it.
I can only believe what Hogan himself claims his peak height was, 6'7". Clay says on 26/Jan/10
Why did Rob let Ola back anyways? Vegas says on 24/Jan/10

ola; how do you know covert and wilson were one inch shorter than their listings?? doesn't that make lesnar and goldberg 6'1 seeing as both were listed at 6'2 in the nfl, if lesnar is 6'1 and he is one inch taller than frank mir that makes mir 6ft and how tall then does that make lou ferrigno today??

So if Hogan was 6"4 at his peak then he has lost almost no height at all which is completely ridiculous. He is a wreck physically.
The absolute LOWEST I could ever go for a peak Hogan is 6"4.75, or a hair under 6"5. But that is still way too low. Anonymous says on 22/Jan/10
Bret Hart is listed as 6 feet tall on this site..His peak height was probably that. He was billed as 6 but most of the time as 6'1..Ric Flair was also billed as 6'1 but he was probably 5'11.5 or just a shade under 6 feet at his peak.As for Hogan his peak height was 6'5 barefoot. Studd didn't have more than an inch on him..remember if all of you who wants to downgrade Hogan to peak 6'4 or somebody even 6'3..then downgrade Sid, Undertaker, Big Show, Andre and so on. if Hogan was at his peak 6'3-6'4 then undertaker was no more than 6'5.5-6.6.5 since taker had Hogan by 2 and a half inches, sid had hogan by 2 inches even thou he was wearing thicker boots. if Hogan was 6'3 then triple h, goldberg, lesnar was 6'1..hogan was taller than the rock at wrestlemania even thou hogan was way past his prime.so if hogan was 6'3-6'4 back then when i fought the rock then the rock was only 6'2 or 6'3 depending on how tall hogan was back then..
peak Hogan a strong and legit 6'5 barefoot Anonymous says on 22/Jan/10

Ola, a 6"4 Hogan would mean Andre The Giant was not much over 6"9.
Hogan was between 6"5 and 6"6 at his tallest.
6'4 Fralic was measured up way better next to john studd than what hogan did, so giving hogan 6'4 is fair enough... there's actually nothing who support it, he should be even shorter Anonymous says on 21/Jan/10

How can Greg 6'.05" above, come up to a lower spot on Hogan's face than 5'9"?? British Bulldog does in the recent pic posted. There is either pic manipulation or leaning. However in pic after pic hogan is taller than HBJ and as tall as Spivey. Also look at the pic of HBJ/Spivey & Fralic from HBJ's site. They are all very close in height. Actually Spivey & Fralic look the same height. We know Spivey is 6'6", is it not possible that Fralic was either lifting or is actually closer to 6'6" than 6'5". Which is why he measured up well to Studd.
BS ofcourse, greg is clearly shorter next to hogan than what 5'9 - 5'10 bulldog was. Even if hogan would stand more straight he still wouldnt be more than 7 inches taller than bulldog, but he has nearly 8 on greg? Greg is probarly nothing more than 5'8! and 6'4 1/2 - 6'5 listed fralic did measure up way better next to john studd than what hogan did. The question is, was his height listed with shoes? imo yes, fralic was 6'4 tops barefoot. Spivey's arrest said 6'6 so he is tops 6'5 barefoot. All this 6'6 claims for hogan is ridiculous since there doesnt exist nothing to support it, absolutely nothing. Hogan did never had flair by more than 5 inches, never ever (feel free to prove me wrong) and in WM9 he had hitman by just over 4 inches, when he told hogan to go up in the ring and beat yokozuna. go to youtube and see it for yourself ;) both bret and flair was 5'11 Me says on 21/Jan/10
Well for Spivey his police report for one from I believe 2000 or 2001 has him at 6'6" and he was not in his prime either. Getting back to the point, here on Hogan'spage, Hogan was always taller than HBJ and as tall as Spivey. Everyone can't be downgraded. Hogan has most definitely lost significant standing height. He claims 6'7" for himself on here. I can buy that in his youth in regular shoes. Hogan's head is huge. What about the pic above compared to the pic with BBulldog that was posted.
I see some of the things you say Vegas but I do not post a lot on these pages because really I do not have the time to continue to type the same things over and over.
Hogan 6'7" peak as a youth in wrestling gear that is really all that should matter on these pages what someone's peak height was, nothing else. Red says on 21/Jan/10

We know Spivey is 6'6", is it not possible that Fralic was either lifting or is actually closer to 6'6" than 6'5". Which is why he measured up well to Studd.
four problems; why would a rookie in the nfl wear (be allowed) lifts, the chances of breaking an ankle and how much would wwe have to pay, studd was the one listed at 6'10 wouldn't it be smarter to make him taller, third fralic looks about 6'4-6'5 next to mene gene, charles barkley is clearly taller next to gene a few years later, fourth fralic has 6'4.5 listings too, he wasn't closer to 6'6, he was right around big bens height

The Ronster says on 7/Dec/09
To anonymous (Danimal??) The Rock is not 6'3", has always been listed on football stats as 6'4", but is really closer to 6'5" tall. Hogan today is barely a shade under 6'5" when he stands straight up which is rarely due to his back, neck, knee and hip problems. That would mean yes that he was easily 6'7" or taller in his youth. I remember when someone put a picture of him with the ex footballer Davidson who was 6'9" showing Hogan as 3 inches shorter. Nobody wanted to acknowledge the obvious, which was that Davidson's boots had nearly twice the lift that Hogans boots did. What on earth drives you people to spend so much time spreading your BS and propaganda to belittle giants like Andre and Hogan?? A suggestion; GET A FRIGGIN LIFE!!
Actually davidson was listed 6'8 which is equal with TOPS 6'7 barefoot, hogan was atleast 3 inches shorter so forget anything over 6'4 for a peak hogan Mike says on 19/Jan/10

Anonymous/Ola - look at Hogan's back for god sake! Clearly bending forwards, and his knees appear to be at an angle in the small area I can see. Just by bending your back you can lose height.

As for Scott Hall, check this photo out with Scott Hall, Sid is 6"6.5/6"7.
I'm beginning to wonder if Scott Hall is still 6"5. He looks at least as tall as Eudy in that photo, and he's barely closer to the camera - he must be in some damn big boots or something, or Sid isn't over 6"6 these days. dg says on 18/Jan/10

Hall would have been at least 250 lbs. at that time. I’m 6’4” and around 220 lbs., and Hall would have had at least 30 lbs. on me. The 225 lbs. figure may have just been a police dept. clerk’s estimate, kind of like how Eddie Guerrero ended up being 250 lbs.:) Click Here

When hall was the diamond studd he was billed at 6'7 and 297 and he was huge!
He entered wwe and was billed at 6'7 and 287 as razor ramon and he did look a little lighter.
On his shoot interview his says when they brough legit steroid testing in he lost 20 lbs...
Hall never looked 225... 6'4 (if thats what we're going with) and 225 is pretty skinny and hall has always had a good size, i think at his lightest he would be 240ish.. Nowadays i think he looks 260ish.

Hogan today is 6'3" ... maybe ... But I think he was a good 6'5". I think 2" of height loss is possible.

Danimal i cant believe what im seeing with Hogan hes seems to be shrinking year by year
He keeps having limb shortening surgeries, that's why. A healthy 56 year old man should have only lost MAX 3/4", but Hogan has had a neck fusion (compresses the neck), multiple back surgeries (compresses the spine), knee replacements (they cut away at the bone) and 2 COMPLETE hip surgeries (cut away at the bone again).
Stand a 1978 Hogan next to a 2010 Hogan and you would be completely SHOCKED. Tide says on 13/Jan/10

hogan and roberts were basically the same height "in gear" in the 80s btw Click Here Click Here jimmy v claimed there was 1/4 inch between hogan and roberts which looks about right,
one photo doesn't a person make taller; look at the height hall had on hennig in the mid 80s (3-4 inches difference when both were barefoot), hogan didn't have more on hennig
x-pac is 5'11ish, met him a few months ago, he was wearing flip-flops and still almost as tall as me, alex who contributes here has also met waltman and estimated 5'11 for him, the difference between hall and waltman (when they were ringside last monday was the same as back in 1993 during the razor/123 kid feud)
the camera angles on impact were awful but at no time was hogan more than 5 or 6 inches shorter than nash so why hasn't anyone downgraded nash?? in fact hogan was taller than nash due to horrible camera work at times, i thought that was funny.
i will wait for proper camera angles before assessing anything but if hogan is 6'1 then a whole load of guys must be downgraded now, khali (despite excellent posture) had nothing close to 12 full inches on hogan e.g, brooke must be about 5'7 (danimal you used to claim 6ft barefoot for this girl) Frank says on 12/Jan/10
Danimal i cant believe what im seeing with Hogan hes seems to be shrinking year by year miko says on 12/Jan/10
I still think when Hogan stand's up he is over 6"3.
He's got serious posture problems and can look anywhere from 6"2 to 6"4.
I think that 6"3.5 is still right for Hulk until we see a solid photo of him looking below that. I'm not ruling out a flat 6"3 though.
He's certainly lost height from his peak, there was little doubt he was at LEAST 6"5 in the 80's, and looks shorter these days. Tuga says on 12/Jan/10
I can still see hogan at 6'3, less than that I don´t really think so, he does look at least 6'3 with that rugby player, and like I said those camera angles at impact could still be a bit misleading.
Also Vegas is right on hogan still towering rick flair big time.
All in all its still a huge loss from what I believe to be his peak height of 6'6. Anonymous says on 11/Jan/10
Lets say hogan is between 6'2 to 6'3 today Mike says on 11/Jan/10
Hogan was 6'5.5 give or take .25 inch. That would make him 6'7 in his 1.50" ring boots and 6'8 in his 2.5" cowboy boots, which explaines his 6'7 and 6'8's
he lived in either of those boots back in the day. And that is how they listed the heights of all the wrestlers, they all were about 2.5" below their tallest listing. (The very biggest ones like Andre got even more) Kwame says on 11/Jan/10
If the Rock was listed at 6'5" in college, I'm pretty sure he's at least 6'3.5". I mean come on. He still claims 6'4" for himself. Why would he lie? He's not a wrestler anymore. I'd say 6'4" is probably just a round up.
Recently Florida State's Everrette Brown was listed at 6-4. But now as a pro in the NFL hes listed at 6-1. A full 3 inch inflation. No reason why Rock wasnt inflated by 2-3 inches as well. Danimal says on 11/Jan/10

Seen Hogan on TNA last night he looked about 4 inches taller than Eric Bishoff who's no more than 5ft 10 Jay Leno was taller than Eric and Hall Looked taller than hogan when they use to look about the same height
And remember, a broken down Jake Roberts is taller than Hall today, from a pic from last year we've all seen and Hogan was actually a bit taller than Jake in the 1980's, meaning Hogan would have DEFINITELY been taller than Hall in the 1980's, as he was taller than Hilbilly Jim. Hogan is fading away in front of our eyes. He has turned into Superstar Billy Graham. We're looking at a 4" height loss over here now. The Ben says on 11/Jan/10
I think hall still looks 6'4 and i think he was a solid 6'5 peak, i met him in 94 and he was a huge guy..
As far as hogan today its so hard to tell, i met piper and flair last year and both where much shorter then i thought, both around 5'9.
I also met rick martel. dibiase, the mountie and tito santana and they where taller.
I met a lot of TNA guys over the years who where all short..
I think in general wrestling overbills especially with the taller monster guys but its not always the case..
Hogan looks 6'2.5 6'3 with the 6'5 rugby guy.. I'd go with a strong 6'2 at the moment, i just cant see him being less than that..
Its crazy what injurys and age can do to someone..
I was more suprised how short x-pac was.. he looked about 5'8-5'9.
I've seen him billed at 6'1 222 lbs...

Ben, why would Hall be 6'4 today? he is 51 and 6'4 was his peak height (arrest in 1998 said 225 lbs & 6'5 and thats with shoes) he could be 6'3 1/2 or 6'3 these days, so hogan down to 6'1 1/2 today? seems right since he had only 3-4 on 5'10 TOPS bischoff
Unless you saw a MUG SHOT, do NOT take an inch off of his 1998 arrest height. People normally don't get measured, but are asked their height. I once spent a night in jail for breaking up a fight at a bar and the police took a lot of us in that night. I was ASKED for my height and weight. NOT measured.
PEAK Hall = 6'4.5"-6'5". Today maybe an inch shorter. Hogan is WELL below 6'3" and YES, for Vegas to admit to that is not in his nature. Never has been. Mostly likely never will be. Vegas says on 10/Jan/10

We know that Rock is bare-minimum 6'3.
Hogan was marginally taller than The Rock in their 2002 face-offs. Since then, Hogan has had 2 complete hip surgeries and who knows what else. I think Hogan would be the EXACT same height as the Rock today. A prime Hogan would have had 2.5-3" on The Rock imo. Anonymous says on 6/Jan/10
you could call hogan a 6'5 or a 6'6 because he was probably at his peak 6'5.5..he was right between the 6'5 and 6'6 mark..so if he was 6'5.5 and maybe 6'6.5 in his wrestling gear and billed as 6'8 and later 6'7..
btw all the crap about hogan wearing lifts..that's not true..sid had thicker boots than him also zeus "tiny lister" did and Jake the snake roberts..Hogan never wore lifts during the 70's and 80's...yes he was wearing coowboy boots outside the ring but in the ring his boots where normal,,todays boots are thicker then the one hogan used in the 80's...

The Rock's biggest listing at Maimi was 6'5 273. Posted on this site.
If the Rock was listed at 6'5" in college, I'm pretty sure he's at least 6'3.5". I mean come on. He still claims 6'4" for himself. Why would he lie? He's not a wrestler anymore. I'd say 6'4" is probably just a round up. Anonymous says on 2/Jan/10

Hogan was no bigger than 6'6 peak because somebody posted a poster of a Andre Hogan match from 1979 and it listed him as 6'6. He would have been 26 years old and was already wrestling for 2 or 3 years at that point so he would have hit his peak height. No promoter worth a dime would have listed a wrestler at being shorter than he actually was back in the 70's, especially in a high profile match with Andre the giant, who was juiced to 7'5 on the poster. Having said that, I think that Hogan was about 6'6 at that time, Hogan was absolutly no shorter than 6'5 peak, but also no taller than 6'6. Big 6'5, small 6'6. Vegas says on 1/Jan/10
whats people estimates on brooke?? everytime i see her without her spikes she looks shorter, even in that video i posted she isn't even taller than fireplace barefoot Anonymous says on 1/Jan/10
Hogan has lost max 2 inches of height..in his prime he was probably 6'5.5 barefoot and today he is a strong 6'3.5..yes he can sometimes look as low as 6'2.5 or tall as 6'4 it all depends of his posture..Hogan only stands tall when he need to..no doubt that he was 6'5 1/2 in his prime...

Danimal says on 30/Dec/09
You make NO sense. Since when has towered his daughter by 6-7" as of recent, seeing that's what it would take to put her at 5'8" if he IS indeed MAX 6'3".
you never watched HKB did you?? hogan always had brooke by 6 inches or thereabouts when both were barefoot side by side, watch the first minute or so of this both are barefoot Click Here Danimal says on 30/Dec/09

hogan was 6'6 but sometimes appears to be only 6'2-3" nowadays
I guess daughter Brooke is really only 5'8? No chance as low as 6'2.

...was even a tad shorter than the 5'11 bret hart (5'10 according to danimal) so much for that!! Anonymous says on 28/Dec/09
Ya know, Danimal's comment isnt that crazy. I wore those big cowboy boots back in the 80's and I measured the heel once and it was 2.75 inches. If Hogan was 6'7 he would have been like 6'9.75 in boots which would have been NBA center type tall back then, and he just was not that tall. All in all he must have been 6'5 peak thought.

6'5.75 is the perfect height for Hogan. At that height your copping 6'8.25 with boots on which is way tall. And yet it's short enough that when you lose a believable couple of inches to age and surgeries your down to 6'3.75 which he is now. Besides, 6'5.75 back in the 70's for a big 300+ pound muscle man like Hogan would have been extremly tall, even most of the biggest linemen in the NFL today come in at about that height. Ghost says on 11/Dec/09
Flair had an easy inch on Kurt Angle, so if you buy Angle as 5'10 which he is, you have to buy Flair as 5'11 even in his recent years. The Ronster says on 7/Dec/09
To anonymous (Danimal??) The Rock is not 6'3", has always been listed on football stats as 6'4", but is really closer to 6'5" tall. Hogan today is barely a shade under 6'5" when he stands straight up which is rarely due to his back, neck, knee and hip problems. That would mean yes that he was easily 6'7" or taller in his youth. I remember when someone put a picture of him with the ex footballer Davidson who was 6'9" showing Hogan as 3 inches shorter. Nobody wanted to acknowledge the obvious, which was that Davidson's boots had nearly twice the lift that Hogans boots did. What on earth drives you people to spend so much time spreading your BS and propaganda to belittle giants like Andre and Hogan?? A suggestion; GET A FRIGGIN LIFE!! Daniel_Sweden says on 6/Dec/09

miko, thats BS. peak hogan never had 6' on flair not even close... try 4 1/2! a 5-10 flair TODAY is equal with a 5'11 dibiase (yes he was barely taller than flair)
but dibiase(like hogan) also lost 4-5 inches? !LOL! please wake up idiots
peak flair: 5'11
peak dibiase: 6'1
peak hogan: 6'3 1/2
this is insane...Virgil(vincent) the bodyguard of dibiase is listed on this site as a legit 5'11.5, Dibiase always looked 2 and a half inches taller than virgil which means Dibiase was 6'2.5 at his peak..Ric Flair was a bit taller than 5'11 his peak height was just a shade under or around 6 feet even..if hogans peak height was 6'5.5 or maybe even 6'5.75..i don't belevie he was a full 6'6.. 1987-1988 andre to me looked like a 6'10.75 - 6'11 when he stood up with good posture..just watch the contract signing 1988 (think it was at royal rumble) before their match at saturday night main event..Hogan has a foot wear advantage with his cowboy boots but andre looks 6 inches taller. Anonymous says on 5/Dec/09
Ronster, I don't know what you're talking about when you call the Rock a legit 6'5 when he is 6'3 and a half. Hogan is about half an inch taller. In his prime he was maybe 6'6, never 6'7. Valentine says on 4/Dec/09
I stood next to him once and I'm a 15-year-old girl, about 5'9"
He was at least 7 inches taller than me for sure Danimal says on 4/Dec/09

Vegas,
Jesse, like so many from that time, did a lot of bending of the knees and posing and moving about and posing. Just like the Superstar before him and Hogan after him Jesse was always strutting and creating a cool, California beach bum mystique. He was awesome at it. That is why he sometimes seems closer to Vince's height. Vince stood like a statue back then. When Jesse stood perfectly straight he has 2.5" on Vince. But keep in mind if you do screen caps that often times you could not see Jesse's stance, they can be misleading.
Keep in mind. Vegas WANTS TO "mislead". That's his chief goal. Vegas says on 3/Dec/09
Me; i think footwear is more the issue, like rob said when people wear cowboys there is a chance they are hiding something and guys like ventura wore them religiously, the odd time he didn't he always looked shorter like at summerslam 89 and the buildup he was clearly shorter than ted dibiase in sneakers (who wasn't taller than his 6'3 listing he always got), like at summerslam 99 where he was the same height as HHH in sneakers. chuck barkley had 3 full inches on him in golf shoes, he obviously wasn't allowed wear cowboys on the set of running man either and looks about 6'2 next in that one scene standingn next to the Sven-Ole Thorsen (who himself has claimed 6'4 on more than one occasion), he had good posture next to orton too but orton had him by clear inches (they would have probably been the same height had jesse brought out the cowboys though lol) rocco says on 3/Dec/09

Ronster , the Undertaker was only 3" taller than 6'5 Jake Roberts so we can rule out 6'9 or 6'10 , unless you wan't Roberts at 6'7". Sid Justice is 6'7 billed at 6'9 and 6'10 during his career (If he was a legit 6'9 do you really think they would bill him as that?) The Rock has claimed 6'4 (Billed at 6'5) , but IMO is really between 6'3 and 6'3.5. So 6'4 for Hogan in 2001 and 6'3.5 today after further back surgeries is more realistic.
He's also had 2 hip surgeries since he faced the Rock almost 8 years ago. Back then he was barely taller than the Rock. 6'4" for him today is unrealistic. Anonymous says on 1/Dec/09
he esily looks 6'4" next to 5'10" ric flair these days. Clay says on 30/Nov/09
