I love this man have done since the 80's ,great voice and looks and have seen him in concert too.I would agree that morten is 5'11 and he tends to wear ankle boots with a good 1 inch heel on them so that would make him 6 feet tall. Ole says on 22/Mar/08
I've met Morten on several occations (I live in Oslo), and he's about my height - 6 ft. I've bumped into Magne once - and I think he's taller than me.
Btw: Many of you seem to think that people shrink a lot. Well, that's not always the case. I've been measured 'professionally' three times: 181,5 at 19, 182,9 at 27 and 183,4 (!) now, at 39.

he is 5 11" now i think...and he has good proportions... Gonzalo says on 11/Dec/07
Pal and Mags are taller than Morten. Morten is at least 1`82. And he`s got a great voice AshnarLynx says on 10/Dec/07
He is pretty buff, so he may look shorter than 182...I dunno. Recently he's looked more like 178 to me. Nash says on 6/Dec/07
hey what the hell is he 182 cm, i bet he's 174 cm you so generous in height in this site i think... Joachim says on 3/Dec/07
In a-ha's first Norwegian biography, it said 183 cm for all three of them. Magne Furuholmen can seem a bit taller, because of his sometimes very curly hair. AshnarLynx says on 14/Oct/07
Magne/Mags looks taller than 186, I think he's in the 190 area. Maybe 188-189. Rachel says on 24/Jun/07
I don't think he is 185cm or more. If he is, than with normal shoes he would be 187-88cm plus with the hair, especially in the 1980's with his high james dean hair, he would come off as a 190-191cm guy and he didn't give the impression of being that tall. I think that 183cm barefoot in the 1980s and now 180-181. Del Mar says on 21/Dec/06
Now looking 5-11! He's no 6-1 as thought peter says on 22/Nov/06
there was a webinterview (can't find it anymore) where Morten said "I'm 1m82 tall, 1m83 when I lie on the floor". Del Mar says on 13/Sep/06
I've read 1.83 for Paal Waaktaar earlier and think 1.86 is a little stretch even if I know he has been listed that too. I think he and Morten are the same height, 1.83-1.85. Morten looked the same height or maybe 1 cm taller than me and I'm 183,5. Magne Furuholmen is 1.88-1.90 and usually understates his own height. Rastus says on 13/Sep/06
Official A=ha heights from 1985 were 1.83m for Morten and Pal (guitarist) and 1.86 for Mags (keyboards). Morten has always looked a chunky 6 footer. Del Mar says on 25/Aug/06
Thanks Rob! I will now shut up ;). Hope to get pictured with the man to have this height precisely proved, but will not give an unattainable promise either.. Del Mar says on 25/Aug/06
I agree with Glenn. At least 6'0.5" as a compromise
[Editor Rob: I will change him yes] ER. says on 24/Aug/06
Never under 6-0. About 6-1 is also my estimate. He is geniuenly tall. Not VERY tall, but tall. Viper652 says on 24/Aug/06
Also remember seeing him perform at last years Live 8 concert. He did appear to be a legit 6-1 on stage. Hes clearly not below 6-0 though. Glenn says on 24/Aug/06
Please change this to 6-1 Rob.thanks. Viper652 says on 23/Aug/06
He looked 6-0 or a little over in the take on me video. 6-1 could be a possibility as well. Hes tall Del Mar says on 23/Aug/06
6-1 last time i saw him bikagyura says on 18/Aug/06
I've seen him listed as 6' 1" too, so you're not the only one crazy in that case Glenn (Me myself has always had the very same illusion [of him being 6' 1"]) Caroline says on 18/Aug/06
I'm telling you because I've seen him up close at a gig in a pub in Coventry where I live, he's 6'1". Mags is taller, over 6'2" and I have a photo of them standing together, there's an inch or two in it. Regardless, he's the most disarmingly handsome man I have ever had the pleasure of laying eyes on. He has perfect proportions, a human work of art. Glenn says on 18/May/06
So Im not crazy. ER. says on 18/May/06
He was described as "183 CM." in a recent edition of a weekly Norwegian magazine. And in that Live at Valhall DVD he looks about 6'1". I highly doubt he's under 6'. Glenn says on 17/May/06
He actually gave me the illusion of being 6-1. Gonzalo says on 11/Apr/06
My sister used to be crazy about A-Ha when she was young. We had a magazine that said Morten was 1`82. The other A-Ha members were listed as 1`86. Morten could be 6 feet tall.
Good band A-Ha. I also used to like them del Mar says on 3/Apr/06
Wow, I'm surprised you guys have made taking a picture with Morten! However I think he might be a bit over, probably a full 6 feet or even 6' 0,5. I could ask his cousins sons friend (yeah, its complicating) if he knows for sure. dmeyer says on 11/Mar/06
it is funny that a lot of actors are 5'11.5" like me i didnt know it was a coment height blondie says on 22/Feb/06

I met morten a few years ago with my then boyfriend who was 6 feet,Morten stood about the same if not an inch shorter.He's about 5 11"-6 ft tall. Glenn says on 4/Feb/06
6 feet min.6-1 max.looked tall to me.until I got pic back. Anonymous says on 3/Feb/06
I think he's quite tall if he stands straight. 6ft I'd say or thereabouts. CoolJ says on 2/Feb/06
If he straightens out I can buy 5'10.5. Not sure if he's anymore.. figuring Glenn is standing back. |
