Randy Quaid Height
Randy Quaid's height is 6 ft 4.5 in (194 cm)

US Actor. This guy's posture at times can be bad, but when he stands tall i think for most of his career he may have been a little over 6ft 4. Back in an edition of Independent from 1974 it mentioned "Quaid is 200 pounds, 6- foot-4 and unintimidated by producers". Lately, even in 5ive days to Midnight, there's a scene in airport and he towers Timothy Hutton. Someone mentioned him and Chase (who himself claims 6ft 4 and has looked near that in 80's) and Quaid does look taller.

more 195cm actually

Watching x-mas vac, the scene in the grocery store is a giid side by side. Quaid looks taller but scince he is thicker is does draw your attention to him. I would sau the difference maybe 1/2 inch. I am not sure but I would think directors would want to offset people of similar height to focus attention to what is being said. Or in the case of tall women and short men Cruise/ Kidman.
Hugh 191cm says on 2/Dec/09

Rugal, learn to read. 6-1/2 feet does not mean 72.5 inches broheim. I mean, are you kidding me? 6-1/2 feet = 6'-6" or 78". I said he's closer to 6'-6" than to 6'-0", meaning...he's above 6'-3.5" for sure. Learn to read and please don't cuss on this website.
Rugal Bernstein says on 26/Sep/09
jf, you're posting so much bull**** on pages like for example your retarded thinking that 6'5" is below average for the netherlands and now you say that Quaid is 6'0"-6'0.5", I even don't think that you have an idea about human height. Quaid is at least 4" above your stated estimation. Anyway, yes he's a tall guy but in Kingpin he looked barely 6'3" and in other films he had a 6'5" appearance.
jf says on 4/Aug/09
Dude towers almost all comers. A legit 6 to 6-1/2 foot tall man. He's closer to 6-1/2 feet tall than to 6 feet. Anyone who says he isn't sniffing 6 feet it nuts. This guy is huge. He towers. A legit tall man, and one of the tallest movie stars ever.
thekiddd says on 30/Jun/09
He looked about 4" taller than Bill Murray. 6'5" is it.
yoyo says on 3/Apr/09
a strong 6ft4.5. no way over or less..
hamletmiss says on 18/Jan/09
All of my life, I always believed Chevy Chase to be 6'4", but standing next to Randy Quaid, who has to be 6'4" tops, I am starting to think that Chase at best really is 6'3" all of his life, and like many men, loves to accentuate his height. Usually, Chevy is taller than every man he works with, but only Randy Quaid is just a little taller.

I'd say 6'4 3/4" at peak or 6'5". And About just 6'4" today.
RICHARD says on 23/Oct/08
Give him 6'5.75 in his peak. Now 193 flat
Hugh says on 9/Oct/08
6ft5ish at his peak.
Hugh says on 4/Oct/08
He's probably more 6ft4 flat nowadays. He is in his 50's.
J.R. Clover says on 13/Jun/08
When I stated on 17/Apr/08 that my buddy was 6'3" and he had worked with Randy Quaid, I forgot to mention that my actor friend Mark Smith was 6'3" in his bare feet! He most always wears cowboy boots which make him approx 6'4.5" If you look at the scenes of Mark with Randy togeather in Independance day, yes they are the same size, and randy is also wearing similar cowboy boots, which would make them both stand about 6'4.5" and that would make them both about 6'3" in bare feet. footware makes a big difference! I am 6'2" in my bare feet, but i have a pair of "Frye" boots that make me easily 6'4"

quaid looked 2" taller than chase in one of the vacation movies i watched a few weeks ago, can't remember which one though

here he is looking 4" shorter than UBG Click Here
Danimal says on 30/Nov/07
Chase was NOT 6'3" in Vacation. Since when was he 6'3" in the 80's?? Chevy had at least 2" on John Candy in 1983 and was inches taller than Dan Akroyd in Spies like Us. Chevy was 6'4" MINIMUM. In Fletch the basketball commentator says that Chevy is actually 6'5" and 6'9" with the Afro. NO 6'3" for that man. MAYBE he's leaning towards that today in his mid 60's, but not in his prime.

Whatever Quaid was, he looked short next to Nick Cassavetes in 1986's Wraith.
kenneth198 says on 30/Nov/07
he looks 6ft5 in Another Teen Movie in 2001..
Alex says on 5/Jun/07
To me towering over would be 4-5 inches or more.
Eclipse says on 24/May/07
Richard.... you said he's 6-4 and towered over the 6-3 Chevy Chase......how is one inch TOWERING over someone? You can barely tell the difference!!
RICHARD says on 19/May/07
He is 6'4. In X-Mas Vacation he towered over 6'3 Chevy Chase. Hell,I wouldn't be surprised if he was 6'5
Dai says on 16/May/07
I agree with Alex, clearly taller than Chase in Christmas vacation, perhaps even 1.5 inches. If Chase is 6ft3.5 then Quaid must of been shade under 6'5 when filming in '89.
berta says on 11/May/07
he is very tall i am 6´4and im think that he lokes taller than me
Alex says on 5/Jan/07
Was an inch taller than Chevy Chase in the Vacation movies so 6'4.5-6'5 seems right.
Editor Rob says on 25/Dec/06
Chyler Leigh on Randy: "He's a big guy. He's like 6-foot-5. I had no idea. The first time I met him, he was sitting and all of a sudden he stands, and he was huge"
RICHARD says on 9/Dec/06
He looked around 6-4- in the 80s. I remember watching Parents(1989) and he pratically towered everyone on set so yeah 6'4" is the right height. I always thought his brother,Dennis, was taller than him but he is only 6'1''.
anonymous says on 13/Nov/06
I thought he was menacing in the movie Parents, absolutely intimidating. I believe he is 6'4.5, because he towers over Cusack in the Ice Harvest, another classic movie.
Derek says on 24/Oct/06
I think the 6'4 1/2" is right. Not quite a full 6'5", but over 6'4". He absolutely dwarfed Woddy Harrelson in Kingpin.
Anonymous says on 12/Aug/06
Its all depends on how tall chevy chase is. in all those movies he looks to have a good 1.5" over him.
Ball-A-Hallic says on 8/Aug/06
i watched kingpin towers everyone n the movie i'd say a solid 6'5
Glenn says on 20/Apr/06
Wow.he walked by me,last summer and I thought 6-3.I am wrong sometimes.
Ashton Monty says on 19/Apr/06
Randy Quaid is my cousins's ex-boyfriend and i've met him about 3 times. He's really cool and i was able to ask how tall he was. He said he was 6'5'' so i believe him.
