if that guy is 5'8 mayhew is most likely around 6'10-6'11. the comment below is about right

Hmm, he looks taller than 6'9".

I think 6'11 is fair for him.

Can I request a change in Peter's height as he was 7'3 when you took the part of Chewbacca (I believe this height is mentioned on the extras of the Star Wars DVD) & also when they took pics at the re-screening of Star Wars they mentioned his height at 7'3 as he had a pic taken where he was stood behind Anthony Daniels (C3P0)& Ken Barker (R2D2)

If you estimate someone over six and a half feet tall being a foot from the top of their head to the bottom of their neck, you can see here he's at least 12-14 inches taller than Mamun. He's also leaning his head to the left taking an inch off. Given this, I'd estimate, 6'10" or 6'11". Could be 7.0" or 7.1" at peak. But at that height, what the heck in an inch anyway?

"Obviously no one loses 5 inches over time. I dont even how curved your posture or how bad your back is or whatever. The avg person doesnt lose close to the even 3 inches they claim Peter has lost. Pics tell you nothing due to reasons already described. Whether Peter's peak height was 6'11" or 7'2" is not certain. But one things for sure, he hasnt lost 3 inches. *thumbs down on all this bs*"

I'm 5-8,, and my head is 10". If Mamun is 68" and you give him only 9" for his head, looks to me like that would make Chewie about 88", even with the relaxed pose

He looks taller than Nash, so the 6'9" thing doesn't fly with me. I'd go 7'2.5" max with a 7' min.

The Kid he is standing in the picture with is supposedly 7'4". That would give him the 7'2" or so in my book.
Stumpy says on 5/Dec/09
He is so much taller it's impossible to tell by how many inches
edi says on 19/Nov/09
i think he's 6 foot 11 (211 cm)
LG69 says on 6/Sep/09
6'10"-6'11" here, probably 7'0 peak.
aram x says on 6/Sep/09

yoyo says on 27/Apr/09
thats no way his just 6ft9. Peter Mayhew at least 6ft10 less. he had kind of wide in legs that can't make him stand straight up to looks 7ft. Now 6ft10.5(209cm) for him i guess.

That´s about 6´10. But i have notice that his foot aren´t straight. He may lose an inch there??? So maybe 6´11 tops. Maybe 7´0-7´1 when he was younger.

He's normally tall, no growth prob or anything. Anyways there was this one picture of him standing next to Britain's Tallest Man then, Chris Greener,7 feet 6.25. Peter looked about 3 inches shorter than him. I'd say 7 feet 3, maybe 7 feet 2 but defintely above 7 feet 2. Anyways, still trying to find pic on internet.
