Id guess at 6'3 He is taller than everyone he interviews and some of those are clearly tall against their surroundings and fellow people (like 6'2)
JuhaP says on 18/Feb/10
Gotta be taller than 6'2". I know he is very skinny and therefore looks taller, but in all of his documentaries he seems to make everybody else look short. 6'4" is probably more like it. Vegas says on 12/Feb/10
chaz when goldberg wasn't standing straight louis was taller, but if you watch where goldberg walks past louis first he looks the same height if not a little taller
louis is also shorter there than alex wright who wcw used to bill at 6'3 Click Here Anonymous says on 11/Feb/10
6'2 is not right, he says that probaly because he has a complex. Hes extremely tall, and dwarfs everyone, eveb tall guys in his documentary no less than 6'3 Cj says on 29/Jan/10

My memorys cloudy so i could be wrong but i thought goldberg was the taller one,i remember being suprised when i watched it because i didnt expect to see goldberg taller,i will have to re watch that episode though to make sure. Chaz says on 7/Jan/10
He's one of the tallest 6'2''ive seen to.in one of he's shows he was talking to Bill Goldberg,and he was taller by a good 1.5''. l0ck n l0ad says on 10/Nov/09
Always thought he was somewhere between 6'3" to 6'4" on his show and when he said he's 6'2" I was very surprised, must be the tallest 6'2" I ever seen. If he's really in the 6'2" region then for sure he's more like 6'2.5"~6'2.75" evening height rounding his height down, but still I can't really see him under 6'3", just looks too tall to be under that.

Guys this ones easy... Anyone who watches his show knows he's 6'2 as he's stated more than once. I remember in the episode he did on "swinging" he took out an ad in the newspaper & explained to the operator over the phone that he's 6'2 160 pounds. In the episode he did on rappers down in Louisiana he wrote a rap song saying "I'm 6'2 riding in a Fiat, a sub-compact... but luckily the seats go back!" Also he meets up with 6'3 Master P in the same episode & appears to be an inch shorter.
The thing with Louis is he knows his real height & doesn't exaggerate it, unlike "alan west"(Comment posted below mine) & many other people who probably gauge their height amongst other people they know whom also exaggerate their height. alan west says on 20/Apr/09
i met him the other day on portobello road - im 6ft 2 and he was about 2 or 3 inches taller than me. take my word for it, he's at least 6ft 3, if not its likely to be more like 6ft 4, 6ft 5... Doug says on 8/Apr/09
He definately has that tall geeky thin guy look going, I also thought he was like a Jeff Goldblum initially and was 6'4" ish but he is between 6'2" and 6'3" by the looks of it. I'd say 189cm stephen says on 1/Apr/09
he appears taller than 6'2. he dwarfs many people. he's also the sort of modest/not so bothered guy, who doesn't really care how tall he is and 160lbs? he would be thinner if that was the case, though he has put weight on with age. i personally think 6'3 or 4. M.o.r.g says on 13/Mar/09
I Thought he was about 6'4-5 Halb says on 13/Mar/09
There doesn't seem to be any real impetus for him to lie. he may just be 6'2 and people cannot gauge height. Jake says on 7/Mar/09
Louis has stated himself on his show many times he's 6'2. Mike says on 8/Feb/09
On all his coumentaries I've seen, I've seen him very close to the top of door frames... Most western door frames are 6'6" and to me, whenever I see him go through doors, he looks 6'4" minimum. Dan says on 18/Dec/08
On the "Porn Stars" episode of his "Weird Weekends" series he describes himself in a personals ad as "6'2", 160 lbs" Nathan Hedge says on 2/Dec/08
I doubt it...met him at an event in London. Barefoot I'm 6"2 exactly, maybe 6"3 with shoes.... and he was at least 3 inches taller than me... Lawrence says on 30/Jul/08
he looks taller than 6'2''to me,or he's got a very short camara man,may be 190cm and rownded it down, morning-6ft says on 28/Apr/08
i think he's 6-3 minimum Greg says on 19/Oct/07
I've met a coupla people who are over 6ft2 and claim 6ft2.This is rather anecdotal but I guess when people are tall they don't give a damn. Scott says on 17/Aug/07
Yep, agree with this. I walked right past him on Tottenham Court Rd last year and in trainers he absolutely towered over me [179 and a bit] & I was in Timberlands. I desperately wanted to have a chat with him!
He looked a solid 6'4+ and had gigantic, flapping arms. He was literally head and shoulders above all others on the street. People who are 6'2 never seem wildly tall to me [just over 3 inch difference], so this was odd ... but why would he claim this height when he's clearly not??
Only thoughts would be that his whole style is about humility and understatement ... reducing his height might possibly help him in interviews, in terms of getting people on side if they comment on his height and ask how tall he was? I remember one show where he met Ainsley Harriot by chance in the BBC and looked to have an 1 or 2 inches on this guy, who I have always perceived to be pretty big too. If someone know his height this might help nail Louis'.
On a side note, I was absolutely shocked recently to discover his rival Jon Ronson is only about 5'4!!! trueheight says on 23/May/07
I actually think this is off. I've seen all his shows and docs and he just seems like a 6'4 guy. He towers over almost every single person he stands next too and has a large frame as well. seems 6'4 Elio says on 13/Apr/06
I suppose being skinny makes him look even taller. Plus, a lot of the people he's made programmes with ( Paul Daniels, Jimmy Saville ) are considerably shorter than him. Bud says on 13/Apr/06
He looks much taller in his series. More like 6ft 5 but I suppose he must be 6ft 2 - why would he make himself out to be shorter. |
