I met Mr. Nimoy back in 2009 at a fan-convention, and can truthfully say (at least a few years ago) that he was definitely closely bordering 6'-6'1'' (granted that he was practicing good posture at the particular moment.)

I have noticed discussion of his "peak" below... just as a note, the majority of males do not lose much height in growing age (posture begins to worsen, though, in many cases), to the extent that a large majority of women do.

Nimoy only look 3" shorter than peak 6'3-1,2 donald sutherland. Peak 6ft , nowadays look 5'11

I must disagree with my previous 5'10" claims. Nimoy, at the age of 80, looked only marginally shorter than 6' Jane Lynch in yesterday's Emmys opening video. But I still say that he was never taller than 6' in his young. Look at photos of him with 6'1" Gene Roddenberry (like the launch of the space shuttle Enterprise in 1976) and you can see the difference between the two.

My father was 6 ft 1.5 inch and has lost about 3 maybe 4 inch. He is a similar build to Leonard Nimoy and similar age.

This guy looks like a Cardiff bus driver nowadays..

Looks 183-184cm next to Mamun...
[Editor Rob: mamun lost his superman heel so he was at a big disadvantage.]
dmeyer says on 2/Aug/11
older people are tricky my father can look 5 ft 7.5-7.75 then standing straight he can look 5 ft 8.25-8.5

This guy might have been a solid 6'1 at peak
Dmeyer says on 25/Jul/11
Solid 6' with mamun 5'11 with Rob but posture not as good
James says on 26/Jun/11
6'0.25 with mamun
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 26/May/11
6ft1 at his peak is believable, but after watching the remake of Star Trek with Chris Pine he's looks barely over 5ft11

Nimoy towered over Columbo and Shatner was only marginally taller than Columbo. Nimoy was probably a little over 6 ft at the time.

Brent Spiner has been downgraded to 5-10 so it makes sense now that Nimoy is downgraded to 5-11ish

true greatness cannot be denied....Lenoard Nimoy, one of the greats.

i think in his prime he looked 184-185cm flat, definitely looks like he lost some height, 2cm sound about right.

next to Jenny he looks shorter than 182 even, around 180-181cm, i'm 181cm and i look kinda the same next to a 173-174cm friend.
James says on 26/Apr/11
LOL what i was i thinking saying he was 6'1? he looks 6'0 max with rob
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 26/Mar/11
Only a shade over 5ft11 nowadays
guyfrommars says on 20/Mar/11
I've just watched images of him and 5'10.5" DeForest Kelley from Star Trek, and I must say, wearing the same boots, Nimoy didn't look much taller. He was 5'11.5" in his prime, and nowadays he's around 5'10.5".

6'1" Gene Roddenberry looked an inch taller than Nimoy on a 1964 publicity photo. Nimoy is wearing his full Spock costume with the pilot version boots (1.5-inch heels) and Roddenberry has normal dress shoes on. So they're around 6'1" and 6'2" respectively, making Nimoy 5'11.5" barefoot.
Bob says on 12/Mar/11
Nimoy has always been 5'11.5" barefoot. No one from the original Star Trek was 6' or over
James says on 26/Feb/11
6'1 if he stood properly with rob???????????????
SolidSnake says on 26/Feb/11
I would be very pleased If I had lost under an inch at 79 years old. The Darth Vader actor has lost 4 inches according to this site and Clint Eastwood has lost 3.5 inches. Both are of similar age
guyfrommars says on 29/Jan/11
Here's Nimoy with 6'1" Quinto:

He's certainly not 6'1" nowadays, even barely 5'11".
AnonymousIntx says on 19/Jan/11
Ah..one of those great actors in our generation who I wanted to see more in other movies. I' had thought he was 6-2 at least. I've met him once in trek convention long time ago. He really does smile more than you'd think and while George T looked taller in real life, Nimoy looked shorter.
Legend says on 7/Jan/11
I guess I'll be the only honest person here and say he's 5'11.25 max these days.
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 2/Jan/11
He's lost 4cm in height

Was 185cm, now is 181cm
dirtyharry1979 says on 14/Dec/10
looks 1.8m tall to me!
guyfrommars says on 29/Nov/10
6'1" Zachary Quinto, who played his young self, looked nearly 2 inches taller than 78-year-old Nimoy in the new Star Trek movie. He was 6'1" maximum in his peak, and now he's more like 5'11" or 5'11.5".
