how can he be 5'9 today if he is taller than angle today in dress-shoes, a kurt angle who was 2 inches taller than frank trigg a couple of years ago Danimal says on 31/Jul/10
5'11" prime.... 5'9"-5'10" today. chris zaun says on 30/Jul/10
i would say ric was 6 in his prime,5foot11 now. Vegas says on 21/Jul/10
flair and angle in june, flair is slightly taller even at 61, 2mins 53 seconds gives the best overall angle Click Here anonymous says on 14/Jul/10
did he really lose 2 inches of height after the plane crash? Clay says on 13/Jul/10
Today he is 5'10-5'10.5, peak is near 6'0''. Viper says on 1/Jul/10
Are you talking peak height? Hes not over 5'10 in person today. 170 cm says on 30/Jun/10
i'll go with 5'11 to 5'11 1/2.. 6'1 is probably with his boots.... Viper says on 28/Jun/10
I actually saw Flair a few weeks ago in South Carolina. From what I could tell he is this height of around 5'10. Jayson says on 14/Jun/10
Anonymous,
Hogan even admitted that after all the surgeries and injuries he had shrunk to 6'4". So you are correct in guessing if Hogan never had more than 5" on Flair, that Flair was 5'11". When Hogan first came back in to wrestling, he was a legit 6'7". However, with sports, even scripted like wrestling, injuries and surgeries happen. From what people have told me, Hogan was a legit 6'7" in the 70's to early 80's. However he was more around 6'6" during his first title reighn and gradually shrank to 6'4". I have heard some even say he is about 6'3" now. Sports and hard physical activity take its toll. dicksock says on 11/Jun/10
In a shoot interview Arn Arnderson claims he was 6'1" 255lbs when he broke in the business. He never seemed very much taller than Ric. I'd give ric 6' in his prime and 5'10" now. I've actually seen him in person back in 2004 and he looked about my height.(5'10) Here's the interview: Click Here
Fast forward to 9:50 to hear the claim. I think this site has his peak and current heights down perfect. I KNOW how tall he was in 2004 so he is in no way above 5'10.5" today. linke says on 30/May/10
his son grew 3 inches at the age of 20!His first dui had him at 5'11 and the other have him at 6'4!.Reid doesnt look 6'4,but he has grown a bit.Like 6'1 King Pickle says on 11/May/10
take 2 inches off each wrestlers billed height as a general rule. in their wrestling boots they are probably their billed height, but barefoot, i would take of 2 inches. Flair 5"11 real life,probably 5"10 now. Benoit listed as 5"10, 5"8 real life. I am probably close to 5'11" with boots on, but realistically, barefoot, and according to my Dr.i am 5'9" - 5'9 1/4 anonymous says on 10/May/10
peak height (before the plane crash) flair was 6'1" after the crash 5'11". these days a solid 5'10". Shmuel says on 22/Apr/10
I'd say flair is 5'10 now and it his peak just ubder 6'0 Hugh 190-192cm says on 14/Apr/10
184cm peak and 180cm now. That's 1.5 inches Red says on 2/Mar/10
Vegas, I think the angle favours Flair in the old vid, Piper is looking down and Flair´s hair save the rest.
I give Piper max 6´1" peak, maybe just under and Flair 5´11"peak maybe 5´11.5".
Flair was an early lift wearer in my opinion, even in old vid´s it´s clear to see that Flair cared about his height. miko says on 1/Mar/10
That was Piper with an inch on a 5"11 minimum Ric Flair.
Piper was a legit 6"0, and quite possibly close to 6"1 at some stage.
Flair at that stage had already broken his back, years before in a plane crash and had already been wrestling 20 years. It's conceivable that Flair had already lost a little height at that stage. He was near 6"0 at his peak no doubts. Vegas says on 28/Feb/10

6´0" is to tall, I think Flair was 5´11" peak and is struggeling with 5´10" today Danimal says on 14/Jan/10
Rob, who is the Anonymous poster? He just popped up a few days ago and is only posting on the wrestling pages. He's a big instigator.
Anonymous, you talk tough, why are you so scared to post under a name (your REAL username). I know you it is. It's Cycklops from years ago.
[Editor Rob: I can't remember what he typed like, but obviously some people cannot help the style and manner in which they type things like heights or phrases or topics, sometimes if I let a post through from a guy like ola or viper it's easier to spot...] Anonymous says on 14/Jan/10
Flair's arrest said 6'0? ok thats atleast 1 inch to much possible 2, since he has been down to 5'10 the last few years. Sounds right, a girl iknow has a ID who says 5'3 but she is only 5'1. adding ONE inch is absolute minimum, in fact TWO inches extra is even more normal.
Flair arrest: 6'0 = real height 5'10
Hall arrest: 6'5 = real height 6'3 Anonymous says on 13/Jan/10
Danimal says on 5/Jan/09
Flair has NEVER been over 5'11". The WWE even had him listed at 5'11" and 220 pounds when he returned to the WWE. It was on the homepage for a few months and then taken down. I believe that he is around 5'10" today.
LMAO.. for a man who desperate wants hogan to be 6'6 you are putting yourself in a VERY dangerous position here since hogan never had over 5 inches on flair, either is flair 5'11 and hogan 6'4 or flair is 6'1 for hogan to be 6'6. PICK ONE! you cant have both David says on 6/Oct/09
I met Ric in Cancun Mx, i'm 5'11 flat, too sad i did not have a camera, but i can say that the guy looks 5'10 tops to be honest, no question he was taller at his peak.Age, injuries etc, but the guy looks only 5'10. Nice guy by the way. Clay says on 3/Oct/09
kevin p says on 2/Aug/09
Ric is clearly taller than the guy next to him
You need to learn a little more about this sorta thing. Ric is standing clearly in front of Jim, creating an illusion he is a little taller when that isnt the case. Tony says on 27/Sep/09
He was 6 foot in his prime, This is my sister's father he wrestled for wwf late 70's early 80's here he is wrestling Ric flair Click Here
he is to this day 5'10 and never lost a cm in height cause he takes care of his body still. You can clearly see a 2 inch maximum difference between Him and Rick. Rick was most definately 6 foot in his prime kevin p says on 2/Aug/09
Ric is clearly taller than the guy next to him Danimal says on 20/Jul/09
He's MAX 5'10" today. chris says on 19/Jul/09
The picture you show on this site is with some one 5'11.5 flair is taller or equal if your gona cry camera angle. His arrest reprt for his DUI in dec 2008 has him listed at 6.0 even and his arest picture shows his hair reaching over the 6'1 mark. Even with his 2'' lifted dress shoes and his 1.5'' boot soles Ric is a minimum 5'11.5 and in my book 6'1" is a perfectly fair and acceptable billed height. I mean realy I met batista and he was taller than me at 6' but still shorter than my brother who's 6'3'' and they bill him at 6'6. Dan says on 5/Jul/09
the wrestling indsury tends to exagerate heights. The´re billed to be 6 feet whent they´re actually 5'10 and so. Ric is probably 1,78cm, 1,80 TOPS Danimal says on 22/Jun/09
Flair is struggling with 5'10" today based on that pic with The Ben. Tom says on 22/Jun/09
Flair is 5 ft 11. I know him personally. Goldberg and HHH are 6 ft 2 and Batista is 6 ft 2.75 FACT. The Ben says on 22/May/09
For years i though i was 6'1.25... I was measured on charts at 2 gyms i worked in that we used to measure to members on for health tests.
Ive just took my shoes off now, its 6pm and ive been up since 8am this morning and im bang on 6ft... Last time i measured i was 6,0.25 and that was a few weeks ago.
Flair was not tall! Kall says on 21/May/09
I guess question is how tall is Ben? if the above pic is anything to go by, I'd say Flair is bang on at 180cm, given some modest footwear. Ben could be anything like 6'1 to 6'1.5" Red says on 7/May/09
Wrong Anonymous, Ben isn´t even standing straight and is 2"+ taller, Ben looks easy 3inches taller if he would straight up TELLEM says on 7/May/09
thats not even two inches anonymous, even if ben backed up farther away from the camera and stood straighter he'd have a sold 3 inches over flair. flair is lookin a weak 5'10 there. Anonymous says on 7/May/09
you look about 2 inches taller but you are closer to the camera, his eyeline would be level with your mouth if you were 3 inches taller The Ben says on 6/May/09
Hopefully ive got this right... me and flair.. Im not stood straight by any means and i'd say i look 3 inches taller then flair...ive had people on here call 5'10..i guess that makes flair 5'7 or under..

bigd, I would say:
Flair 5'11"
HBK 5'11.5"
Kennedy 6'0.5"
HHH 6'2.75"
Batista 6'3.75"
Their height bills aren't lies if you accept the concept of measuring athletes in the footwear they compete in. All of those men basically fill out their bill when they put boots on, except Batista who has boosted to 6'6" during his feud with Undertaker, who is about 2" overbilled imo, also a result of Hulk Hogan's 2" overbill from his peak of 6'6". This also coincides with guys like Sid and Nash, etc. bigd says on 24/Apr/09

The bare foot ric flair(5'10) next to HBK in boots(probably same height bare foot) next to Mr Kennedy billed at 6'2"(looks 5'11, 6' in boots at best in the vid) next to 6'4" HHH(6'2" at best) next to the self proclaimed 6'5" batista(6'3" at best) now someones telling lies..... bigd says on 24/Apr/09
I went back stage at the O2 wrestlemania revenge tour. It was surreal. Gail kim, Teddy Long and MVP came off as quite shy and generally quiet too. MVP billed as 6'3" is a bit of an exag. He's 5'11" like me. Maybe they all have height complexes like all of us after all they're only human. I know they're deliberatley billed to be larger than life but still, 4 inches is just an insulting exaggeration. Loma says on 6/Apr/09
At wrestlemania,I saw two things today.1st christian was bit taller than cm punk,who wears lifts.Making christian atleast 6'0-6'1 barefoot.2nd Flair was atleast an inch under rourke who is 5'10-11.Flair is 5'9.5-5'10.His son reid was arrested last month...reid is same height as ric and his police records say 5'11. Shock of Electric says on 1/Apr/09
Ric Flair is more than likely barefoot in that RR08 video. He is definitely still 5'11" based on the enormous number of fan/worker pics I've seen, especially people whose height I know.
If Michaels is 5'11" (even listed 5'11.5" here) then Triple H has to be at least mid 6'2". There are countless examples of him being at least 3" taller than Michaels. Batista is also about 1" taller than Trips making him at least mid 6'3". Hugh 190cm says on 31/Mar/09
