Looks a comfortable 3.5 inches taller than Mamum with the correct body posture.
5'11.5 sounds about right. Hugh 191cm says on 30/Oct/09
181cm Nick says on 12/Oct/09
He does look about 5'11 in this photo but remember he also has shoes on so he might actually be only 5'10. but also look at the guys hair in the blue shirt his hair is up and rvd's hair is pulled way back and tight. hs2009 says on 14/Sep/09
RVD is legit 5'11.5" IMO. Near enough the 6'0" he claims. Clay says on 19/May/09
Nearly 6 feet it is. Jesiah says on 18/May/09
Sounds about right. I'm about 5'9.5-5.10 and I used to see Rob every now and then at his comic store when it was in lakewood and he was a couple inches taller than me. Alex says on 18/May/09
Its not going to be easy to tell 5'10.5 from 5'11 in photos alone but based on most pictures RVD looks more in the 5'11 range. Steve198 says on 18/May/09
Ok he's leaning,but I don't think he is 5'11.5,more like 5'11 flat.
Those wrestler are shorter than you expect,their big frame adds also the illusion of being taller. Red says on 17/May/09
Alex says on 16/May/09
Anyone to say that only looks around 2 inches is wrong. Thats no less than a 3 inch difference here.
Please Remember:

5' 10.5 looks ok ! But he did have slight foot wear advantage over me !

I put him at 5´11", 5´10.5" is a little to low Alex says on 16/May/09

so im thinking 5,11.5 is a joke. He looks 179-180 tops. I think based on that picc considering rob van is closer to the cam, he is only 5,10.5: i think u need to take an inch off rob. Alex says on 14/May/09
I wont even comment on that 5'9 estimate.
Rob met him too and said he appeared pretty close to 6'0 as well. 5'11-5'11.5 does equal to being pretty close to 6'0 anyway. Now 5'10 wouldn't be. Vegas says on 14/May/09
SoReal says on 14/May/09
LOL In that pic, Rob looks more like 175 than 182!
making mamun no more than 167-168 then, mamun is 173.5, so how can rvd look 175 in that photo?? MAMUN says on 14/May/09
Thank you the Ben!

Mamun The Ben says on 14/May/09
You cant really bsee RVD's shoes... I met him in 1998.. he seemed 5'11 max to me.. He was pretty arrogant back then.. he was an ECW heel at the time and only 26 though... I still think he rocks and i miss him being around... Great picture Mamun.. SoReal says on 14/May/09
LOL In that pic, Rob looks more like 175 than 182! LOMJkE says on 13/May/09
rvd is around 180-181 cm he was shorter than Jeff Hardy who is at least 6'1 MAMUN says on 13/May/09
Thank you TELLEM !

Mamun TELLEM says on 13/May/09
mamun is slightly over RVD's eyebrow, meaning thats 3 inches over. cool pic mamun. TELLEM says on 13/May/09
same height as 5'11 virgil. mamun has stated that he was measured at 5'8.25 in the afternoon...meaning that RVD here is about 5'11. guess this eliminates the ridiculous 5'10 estimate for RVD. MAMUN says on 13/May/09
5' 10.5 looks ok ! But he did have slight foot wear advantage over me !

Alex says on 12/May/09
I see 3 inches between Mamun and RVD. Anything under 5'11 I highly doubt for RVD.
i agree, RVD is scheduled for an indie show in my hometown in august, hopefully i can get a photo with him without wrestling gear after Alex says on 12/May/09
I see 3 inches between Mamun and RVD. Anything under 5'11 I highly doubt for RVD. Frank says on 12/May/09
I agree he looks 5ft 10ish smithy says on 12/May/09
naahh, this guy looks like a 5'10.5"
Kinda stubby for his built. Alex says on 12/May/09
An easy 5'11 and probably 5'11.5. MAMUN says on 12/May/09
Thank you ROB !
Kind regards
Supermun ! miko says on 12/May/09
He is dropping posture here, but is a very solid 5"11 guy.
Would be great to see a RVD and HBK staredown. Anonymous says on 27/May/08
Albi, there is no consistent pattern of heights here being exactly 1 cm shorter. You can probably point of dozens of examples to support your case, but there are so many celebrities here that I can probably point out dozens of counter-examples. Albi says on 1/Jun/07
Its a little frustrating seeing that a lot of the celebrities on this site are put at exactly 1cm shorter than what they claim. 1cm is a very small difference, certainly not noticeable by someone who is 10+cm shorter than them. I say if you have no strong proof of that 1cm just put their billed height. This way you're hurting your credibility. The phrase "...because I can" is coming to my mind. Ben says on 25/Apr/07
the reason van dams boots look so big is because of the padding on the top! not because of huge lifts, i met him 10yrs ago and id say 5'11. and he doesnt look to have shrunk. Derek says on 16/Dec/06
RVD is a tad taller than Jonny, so 5'11 1/4"-5'11 1/2" makes sense for RVD. Jordan says on 14/Dec/06
Well taking jonny's advice about the boots i think RVD is 5'11.25 to 6'0 IMO Jonny says on 4/Aug/06
RVD wasn't wearing big shoes, I remember noticing him wearing normal trainers which I doubt had any lifts in them and if they did they can't have been much. I was probably wearing bigger shoes than him! But you are right, it's never easy to tell the exact height of someone because everyone wears different shoes. JK says on 1/Aug/06
yep, and his official site has his correct height listing.. TheMan says on 30/Jul/06
Ok i see that but we havent seen he's footwear and pictures can do funny things sometimes. Im not saying im right but it's just from what ive seen. Ive seen Cena seem alot taller than him now if he's saying he's 6 foot and RVDS boots are huge he can look that low. It's possible he is 5,11 as i said before im not sure. But ive seen plenty of pictures where people look the same height and their not. Ive seen pics were stallone looks the same height as arnold schwazzenger. If he's 5,11 he's 180cm but it's also possible he's like 178. I think 5,9 is maybe too low of a rating lol. I guess you don't remember he's shoes jhonny. I could imagine he wears chunky shoes becuase he deffently wears lifts with he's wrestling boots and he still doesnt look that tall. Thats really the only reason i am so sceptical. ralph says on 30/Jul/06
Excuse me, TheMan, but are you blind? Dont you see the pic beside johnny? And he said he looked 6 foot, so what are you saying about five foot ten? TheMan says on 29/Jul/06
RVD IMO is about 5,10 max. The reasons i say this is he wears huge huge boots in the ring. And he still alot shorter than guys like Cena who he should be the same height as. Im not sure if he is 5,11 it's possible but if he is he's not a very strong 5,11 about 180cm that IMO is being very generous id say he could be as low as 5,9. JK says on 29/Jul/06
hamtaro you are right man,, thats the thing most of these people don't get, I have actually met Cena in person and i swear he was ATLEAST 6'1'' if not taller, i wish these people could meet him in real life so then they will find out if he's 6'1'' or not... Joe says on 7/Jul/06
This guy is just under 6'0 from what ive gathered. This estimate is spot on. He might as well be billed as 6'0 as some wrestlers really overdo the fake height thing, e.g. 6'8 hulk hogan. Anshelm says on 23/Jun/06
Looked a little shorter (one inch?) than John Cena. Alex says on 1/Apr/06
He looks 5'11 at least, maybe 5'11.5. Going by most pics he looks 5'11 flat.
[Editor Rob: yes, knock a little off him now] Jonny says on 31/Mar/06
Yeah it's hard to tell, there isn't much difference between us if any at all, but I reckon he is probably 5'11.5". Jason says on 30/Mar/06
He appears the exact same height as Jonny there. Maybe Jonny thought he was slightly taller because his eyes are situated a little higher.
[Editor Rob: it depends...always remember that if you've got a guy closer to camera this can play with actual heights, especially depending on how close the cameraguy is. But I could see 5ft 11.5 for him, my own estimate was he appeared close to 6ft, so...] Editor Rob says on 30/Mar/06
Here is the picture Jonny promised to send of him and Van Dam. Jonny says on 29/Mar/06
I am a legitimate 5'11", I have my pic with RVD showing him to be that or slightly over, I'll send it.
[Editor Rob: yes, send please and I'll add it] Alex says on 21/Mar/06
I can't see anyway RVD as low as 5'10. 5'11 is the most accurate even though he MIGHT be as low as 5'10.5 as Jason says he may be. Liz says on 12/Mar/06
I once saw him at the mall because there was an event for his video game store and he looked like 5'10". Alex says on 3/Feb/06
I see the pic with Van Dam and Jim, don't think its 7 inches of height between them so it puts Van Dam at 5'11 exactly. Its more like 6 inches apart. Jason says on 11/Jan/06
Pic 21 of gallery 2 of hillbillyjim.com - 6'5'' Jim with Rob Van Dam. Hmmm ... Van Dam looks more like 5'10 1/2''. Maybe his wrestling boots were giving him more when you met him, Rob?
[Editor Rob: my impression was 182cm, although he does have good posture. Without a picture though an estimate might be off...his trainers didn't appear that suspicious though, although I don't remember him using the old 'ultimate warrior' raised eyeline trick...] obsessedwithwwe says on 12/Nov/05
hes 5'11" flat not quite 6' as he says he is ... maybe with those big boots of his ... TheMan says on 27/Aug/05
I agree he's a solid 5,11 doesnt touch 6,0 though mid 5,11 thats all IMO. Also wrestlers wear huge boots Van damme wears huge ones so don't be so sure he's actually that tall. In the ring he's about 6,1 2 inches taller atleast. In reality he's 5,11. Lex says on 24/May/05
I met Rob after a wrestlig show, he did look about 5'11. |
