186cm now and 188cm peak
Hugh 191cm says on 3/Oct/09
189cm peak! thats too tall.
Daii says on 28/Sep/09
Id go for 186 cm now, and 189 cm peak. 6'1.5 he looks to be recently.
Ed Kline says on 26/Sep/09
Seemed only about an inch shorter than 6'4 Tom Selleck back in 1980 in the movie 'The Shadow Riders'. So yeah 6'2+ at peak.
Daii says on 3/Sep/09
Did look just over 6'1 in We Were Soldiers next to 5'9 Mel Gibson.
Hugh 190cm says on 22/Jun/09
Looked the same height as eric bana at the hulk premiere.
Hugh 190cm says on 16/May/09
Is it possible that he may have been a little over 6ft2 in his prime?
Hugh 190cm says on 13/Apr/09
Might be 186-187cm on a good day. 6ft2 in his prime definitely though.
Hugh 190cm says on 24/Mar/09
Nah, I can buy 6ft2 when he was younger. Nowadays he doesnt't quite reach that mark. However could be a shade taller than 6ft1.
RisingForce says on 22/Mar/09
In other scenes he actually had only 3 inches on swayze max. Maybe he was never over 6'1"?
RisingForce says on 14/Mar/09
He looked about 4 inches taller than Patrick Swayze in Road House which was made in 1989. Both were wearing boots.
Anonymous says on 8/Mar/09
was quite tall in We Were Soldiers, had 4-5 inches on Mel Gibson I would say 6'1 around 186ish
\ -_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 26/Feb/09
In fairness though he did appear 6ft2 next to Eric Bana at the Hulk Premiere.
\\\\ -_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 25/Feb/09
Still looks tall though. He might still be close to 6ft2 in the morning.
\\\\ -_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 24/Feb/09
Excellent! Been waiting for this for a while. He definately has lost some height. 6ft1 is spot on. Thanks Rob.
\-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 21/Feb/09
Howabout you give him a peak height?
\-_-_-(Hugh)-_-_-/ says on 18/Feb/09
Rob, honestly this guy looks nowhere near 6ft2.

[Editor Rob: maybe he's lost a little, I agree he isn't that height now anyway.]
U turn says on 8/Feb/09
He obviously lost height then. 188cm should be his peak though. He did look 6ft2 when he was younger. today I'd say he's a little over 6ft1.
Mr. R. says on 29/Jan/09
I saw him a few years ago at Paramount shooting the Vietnam Movie. He walked right by me in his uniform and he was about 6-1 at the tallest.
Rusty says on 28/Jan/09
I would say hes about 6'2" and 170 pounds.
Hugh says on 4/Dec/08
I'm not sure if this guy is actually 6ft2.
Hugh says on 11/Nov/08
Looked pretty much the same height as Eric Bana. 6ft2 is correct.
Hugh says on 16/Oct/08
6ft2 at his peak. 6ft1 now.
Bobby says on 15/Oct/08
Saw an old IMF episode tonight. He is much shorter than Peter Graves 6'4 and Greg Morris who is 2-3 inches shorter than Graves. 6'2"..no way. Maybe six even on a good day.
Anonymous says on 27/Aug/08
he seemed very close in height next to eric bana in Hulk
Mr. R says on 3/Aug/08
He is between 6-0 and 6-1.
Daii says on 25/Jul/08
Hes a lot lankier and taller than Mel Gibson in We Were Soldiers, so I would give him at least 6'0.5 or 6'1, maybe he is 6'2.
Mike says on 27/Oct/07
Elliott is another example of lean frame that gives the illusion of more height.
sam 2 says on 13/May/07
Elliott is slightly shorter than Bill Paxton. Maybe 6' max. No way he was ever 6'2".
Brad says on 7/Apr/07
I always thought this guy was 6' 2".
MHouillon says on 5/Oct/06
David James Elliott is 194-195cm.
Stephen says on 2/Oct/06
5-11 tops
ralph says on 30/Jul/06
i was in the air force with sam elliott, and he is probably 5'11" at most. Tom Selleck is 6'4", and chuck connors is close to 6'7".
Donna says on 26/Apr/06
Sam bought a place in Brownsville Or. Ans I have seen him and he is taller than my hubby who is 6ft. So there!
TNTinCA says on 3/Apr/06
He did appear to be a good 3-4 inches taller than Swayze in Roadhouse. Did look close to Eric Bana's height in Hulk as well. I can see 6'2" for him.
Xhavier says on 19/Mar/06
Click Here, says elliot is a six footer
Gramps says on 10/Nov/05
Hey Mike, I understand about camera angles, but it doesn't look like the angle of this photo could account for the apparent disparity between Connors and Selleck. Check it again.
mike c says on 9/Nov/05
come on gramps! it's the camera angle!try it yourself..pose two people who are basically the same height....have one step back a few feet..and at a right angle...shorter!
Mr. R says on 28/Jun/05
I saw Sam on hte Paramount lot when they were making We Were Soldiers. He walked past me in his soldier gear. He was a little taller - I would say maybe 6'.5". I met Jeff Bridges last year, and he was a solid 6'1".
Anonymous says on 27/Jun/05
No way in hell is this guy 6'2". I saw him standing next to Jeff Bridges in a movie once, and Bridges had 2 inches on him. No taller than 6.
