Noticed the email thing after i posted. I emailed you the pic and few others. Hope you can use it. glenn says on 10/Apr/08
i always felt 5-9.my was telling me he met saxon recently at that he was still 5-10.
RevInstone says on 10/Apr/08
5'9 is correct. I met him a month ago at a horror covention and have a pic with him, if i knew how to post it i would. I'm 6'0 and 5'9 is correct.
[Editor Rob: do you know how to email a picture...] Ed says on 20/Nov/06
There is no way Saxon is 5ft9 now barefoot, I was absolutely shocked when I saw him at a convention a while back. I knew he would be older and maybe a little smaller, but he was small. I'd say 5ft7.5 to 5ft 8 barefoot and maybe near 5ft9 with shoes, and frail looking. He was a pretty stocky guy in Enter the Dragon, and still looked it in The Nightmare on Elm Street movies, but now not the case. Maybe he was 5ft9ish in his prime. Glenn says on 20/Nov/06
Dunken-Frank2,I think,posted pics of a black and white movie where he did look tallish. Dunken says on 19/Nov/06
to Glenn: people say he looked 5'11 in his prime because he did look close to 4 inches taller than 5'6.5/5'7 Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon, 30+ years ago. Glenn says on 19/Nov/06
Saxon seemed 5-9 to me.but why do a couple of people say he was 5-11 in his prime? was he really and he shrunk? Electric06 says on 16/Nov/06
My assumption for him is correct 5'9.5" in his prime. 5'8.5" today. He went through a lot of shrinkage. This supports the idea that Bruce Lee was around 168-69cm. Glenn says on 4/Oct/06
Thanks Backstage and Ed at backing me on my claims that Saxon is shorter than expected. Ed says on 31/Aug/06
Saw Saxon at a convention, and I was shocked how small he was, I'd say 5ft8ish barefoot, even his body frame was small. I was expecting a 5ft10 to 5ft11 stocky built guy. A lot has changed since his Enter the dragon days. Glenn says on 19/Jul/06
Explains why he looked 5-9 when I met him.another victory on my accuracy.I did see early career pics where he looked a shocking 6ft.Cesar is 6-3. MarkO says on 18/Jul/06
If you have a tape of season 1 of The Six Million Dollar Man, check out Day of The Robot episode, with Saxon. At one point, he stand against one of those police measuring chart type things (facing front, and in profile). If memory serves me, he equalled the 5'10 mark, I assume, with shoes. However, who knows how well placed the measuring chart was. Cesar Romero as the Joker can be found against a similar chart in photos on Ebay. It makes him look 6'6, and I'm sure that's not true.

Bruce Lee was never 5'7 to begin with. so 5'10 is the max for the sax-man's prime. Ken says on 27/Apr/06
Saxon was never a quite a full 5'10. 5'9.5 back then - 5'8.5 today Joel says on 10/Apr/06
Maybe 5'8,5'9 today. Back then 5'9-5'10. Chris says on 7/Apr/06
Dean is obviously crouching over or leaning against the pillar in that photo... ForensicNYC says on 5/Apr/06
He was 5'10" in "Enter The Dragon"...he was 3" taller than Bruce Lee who was 5'7"...they wore Kung Fu sneakers which didn't give much height... |
