World's Biggest Idiot should have been his title. Victory mega boots. 2" heel alone, packed solid with wedge.
danny boy says on 17/Jun/13
Sly is a crafty one. I met him at the after party of the Expendables 2 premiere and he was standing at 5'11. My work colleagues were talking about how he was wearing 3 inch lifts and I agree. He is around 5'8 now and maybe a weak 5'9 in his heyday.
Richie Rich says on 17/Jun/13
yo rallat, I don't think posters here are necessarily short. I think they're just fat. They have no idea how much taller a lean muscular body can look. For instance, I'm 5'11" in super shape and I look way taller than Brad Pitt. As for Stallone, he looks short as hell to me but maybe it's his proportions?
but if you're seriously claiming 5'11" for the guy, gotta say you're the one who seem to have self-esteem issues - like you're trying to prop up your hero or something
just sayin *

Stalloney is 5 foot 7. That's the truth and end of story.
larrat91 says on 15/Jun/13
there must be just short peoples talking aboute heights on celeb heighs..
everyone wish celebs are soo much shorter than they are.. stallone 5`7 ??
yeah right.. i know one person, who has been worlds strongest man btw, who have met sly, he is 6`2 himself, and said stallone was easy 5 foot 10 1/2 or 5`11... just look at arnold and sly together. but no, i forgot.. on this site people wish arnold could be 5`11 so.. yeah.. wake up :P

sorry Zach, it was in a tv interview a few years back. I tried to Google for an article or transcript but in vain. However, here's a still of Sly from the movie wearing mega-lifts Click Here
I imagine he's been wearing elevators constantly for most of his career with perhaps the exception of "Daylight" where he looked surprisingly small
Here he is again (probably lifting though shoes are not shown) next to 5'6.5" Pele Click Here
There's no doubt in my mind he's no more than 5'7" these days. Even back in his youth, he was getting lots of help from camera angles and megalifts. Sly's a smart entertainer. He's known all the tricks in the books for a long long time.

Plantar Tension. Sounds like Martian rope specs. The 5' 9" figure is way old.

what LA Doc said I agree 5'7 for sly barefoot normal plantar tension. also seme height estimate is goes to statham being 5'7" very good looking cranium
Brad says on 12/Jun/13
He was wedged in Victory....like every film. Those Rambo boots were specially made height enhancing footwear.
Al deNiro Pucini says on 11/Jun/13
Caine commented on how a celebrity was obsessed with his height - to the point of wearing custom lifts in his soccer shoes - during the filming of Victory. It's gotta be sly! I can't imagine Pele playing soccer with lifts just to look taller. That would be weeeeeeird

5ft8.75 peak in his prime. With his hairstyle he dipped easily 5ft9.5.
5ft.7.75 now.

He was 5'8.5 in his youth ( at the very top )
But nowdays he's looking 5'7.5 to 5'8 ... , or something like that ...
LA Doc says on 10/Jun/13
Last time I met Stallone was face to face at the Expendibles Opening at Planet Hollywood
Las Vegas he was under 5 9 mark in shoes with a moderate lift , I review charts everyday on average men increase their height 1.5 - 2inches , I would give him 5.75 max flat foot stretched (non relaxed posture).
Brad says on 6/Jun/13
Rob would have to ask Sly if he has custom built-up footwear to get an accurate height. I doubt it.

A swedish model who is 5'8.5 met Stallone in 2003, and she said that "Stallone was about 2 inches shorter than me".
But I still think 5'8.5 peak, 5'7.25 now.
Women forget they are usually wearing 2-3 inch heels when they estimate a male's height.

I'm up to here: anyone who talks to another man like that over the Internet is clearly a *****. Uneducated? Hgh makes ppl taller whose growth plates r still open . Hes seventy. Also the website is about celebrities height as far as size and muscles and whAt not come see me and we will see if thats what in"feign" for lol . All in all, ur post is completely uneducated, completely invalid, and to anyone with any insight is the funniest thing they've read all day. U have no clue who am and couldn't be anymore ignorant.
Rob how do u let someone post like that? Completely out of line
im up to here says on 4/Jun/13
junior your uneducated and have no life. STALLONE IS ON ROIDS AND HGH NOW...YOUR AN IDIOT.HGH CAN ACTUALLY CREATE BONE GROWTH. MEANING HEIGHT, FEET, JAW, HEAD, YOU UNDERSTAND NOW? STALLONE IS A FREAK HE WEARS LIFTS AND HOVERS AROUND 5'10-5'11" IN THEM. WHO CARES HE HAS MORE SIZE THAN YOU. SO WHAT IF HE'S 5"8.5 BAREFOOT....HE MAKES UP FOR HEIGHT WITH SIZE...SOMETHING YOU FIEGN FOR
Junior31 says on 2/Jun/13
This ongoing debate is absurd because it all points to the same fact he's 5'8.5. He's shorter then 5'9 ppl and slightly taller then 5'8 ppl. The chuck zito and tyson pics did it for me. Meeting both of them and seeing sly with them tells me he's 5'8.5. Also as I stated before he hasn't recently worn lifts so we finally see the real sly. All 5'8 and change of him. Rob he's almost seventy we have to have a peak and today height for him. The validity of the site hangs in the balance!!!! Lol
Rob if the three of us took a pic together ,sly,u, and I what do u think this pic would look like height wise?

Knowitall says on 4/May/13
Depends on the size of a person's head. No two heads are the same size hence you can't generalize that from an eyebrow to the top of a head is four inches. The distance from my eyebrows to the top center of my head is four and a half inches.
Parker says on 2/May/13
Knowitall says on 1/May/13
Parker, do you know just how small an inch happens to be?
I know eye brow to top of head is 4 inches, and top of sly's head is above 6'1 inch Butlers eyebrows

Arch, you had me busting a gut!
Thanks! I needed a good laugh.
Knowitall says on 1/May/13
Parker, do you know just how small an inch happens to be?
Stallone is definitely more than just three inches shorter.
An inch is roughly the width of the average male finger.
There are more than three fingers difference in that photo.
Also, we don't know if Stallone was standing on tiptoes which is something he tends to do when photographed next to taller people.
Brad says on 1/May/13
Liotta doesn't wear red carpet lifts like Sly.
Johnny says on 1/May/13
Wow, Stallone must be 5'7, because Liotta is 5'11 - 5'11.25. Stallone was 3 inches shorter than him, and then he probably had 1 inch more footwear than Liotta. Stallone maybe is just 5'7 - 5'7.25, that wouldn't shock me.
leonari says on 1/May/13
Took a celeb tour in L.A recently. The guy said he walked passed Stallone couple of times and saw him crossing the street recently. He said he looked 5'8". I agree with Dmeyer. Still today Sly could be a weak or full 5'9" and he lost half an inch from his peak height of 5'9.5". He was very close to 177 in his prime. That's my opinion and no crooked picture is gonna change my mind.
Dmeyer says on 30/Apr/13
Rob at thé golden globe its hard to see more than 5cm between sly and arnie , sly might have 0.3 in more shoes arnie posture looked good at Time so sly is about 174-175 makes arnie 179-180 possible 181 if sly had more shoe

Halb says on 27/Apr/13
Hulk Hogan seems quite straight in his interview, is he that sly to downgrade Sly a few inches?
Guys as big as Hogan though are typically very poor at estimating the height of short-average guys because of the massive height difference. And he has been inconsistent in his response, meaning that I don't think he really cares what Stallone's exact height is but thinks of him as a shortie.
Lomax says on 28/Apr/13
The tallest 5'9" guy in history that's three inches shorter than 5'10" Mr.T. Lmao

Tyson is defenetly no shorter than 5'9.8-5'10 177.5-178cm and sly looks very close to him and in shots taller , While sly has normal shoes , sly CAN Look over 174cm at 66 , he could Still be 175cm

Yes I think Rob is right, Seagal does the same thing in interviews downgrading people and their abilities. Hogan has claimed Stallone was 5 ft 8 though and I think he was serious about that one but it is pretty clear Sly is not as low as 5 ft 6!!.
Johnny says on 22/Apr/13

174cm fits sly perfect today he CAN Look 175-176cm at Times because of gréât posture , but looking at pics when in equal posture to 175cm statham whom i met , legit 174cm seems Right for sly ,
dmeyer says on 20/Apr/13
Rob if you take a pic with sly this year do you think he will look 1-2cm taller than you if he had normal 1 " dress shoes, he must be 174-174,5cm max today, rob do you agree a full 175cm dinner is unlikely at nearly 70, thaugh he can look 174-175cm alot today

Johnny says on 20/Apr/13
Stallone have never been 5'9 (175 cm). He was about 5'8.5 (174 cm) when he was younger, and is now in 2013 right between 5'7.25 - 5'7.5 (171 - 171.5 cm). He is 5'7.75 (172 cm) at tallest in 2013. Statham who I think is a flat 5'8, is taller than Stallone.
Kyuss says on 19/Apr/13
Very doubtful sly is 5-6/7 imo. Hogan just seems to be shooting out approx height or something,besides imo he was never 6-7",more 6-5 range. Sly now is 5-8" range or above.

Rob whi would Hulk hogan claim sly is 5'6-5'7
Lol at Hogan, claiming barefoot peak 6´7" for himself and 5´6"-5´7" for Sly.
If Sly was 5´6" in Rocky 3, then Hogan was about 6´2"peak - except the standing on a box scene.
Dmeyer says on 18/Apr/13
Sly was nothing under 174cm or over 176cm peak and now the absolute shortest he could be is 5'8.25 and more likely 5'8.5-8.75 , sly was 175cm wish was a very normal height for Man. In 70s 80s , i dont understand whi he gets so short sightings , considering his posture and built he should Look 5'9-10 to people , a good friend of mine who met sly 10 years ago said sly was 5'9-9.5 in person , annoter friend met him and told me sly looked 5'10.25-10.5 but had weird shoes , another friend met sly in an elevator and said sly was taller than himself at legit 170cm about 173-174cm , so sly looked 173-179cm to people i Know ,

Stallone can definitely be 5'7 in 2013. Then he have been about 5'8.25, and can easily say he is 5'10.5 without people even notice that he was shorter because of big lifts. But I think Stallone have been 5'8.5, and is now 5'7.25. He kinda reminds me of Robert Downey Jr who is also around 5'7, they both look the same height and both can look much taller because of big heel lifts.

Ok folks this photo is from rocky 2 the movie in wich roberto duran the world champion boxer appeared with stallone in a brief scene.z Duran is at best 66 inches in fact in the movie mickey rockys trainer exclaims "if u can catch this little speed ball u can catch anything" with that being said both stallone and duran were probably wearing boxing shoes wich really dont give much at all also this was in the late seventies way before sly developed his short height omplex so lifts are improbable. interested to see what u guys think
The link might not work but that's the site. U guys need to see this
The pic is duranstallone4554 it's on the website Myboxingfans Pleaaseee someone post it I'm computer illiterate otherwise I'd do it myself!

Imo 5-9" mark is very close,5-8" being a minimum on sly. Can't see him under that because his lift shoes would be more like high heels to carry off a 5-11" look he can do.

I think peak he was 5'9 today not sure... remember early to mid 2000's pics he was going crazy with lifts and munsters sly was even with 6foot denzel washington hes topped willis in a few photos (not recently/anymore though) heck sly has even almost/basically tied arnold a couple years ago (not in recent pics though)i think Sly has maybe shrunk or stopped putting on the big boys..cant believe the 2 people formerely on this site that have met sly go from a 5'7.5 to 5'10.5 range, hes gotta be somewhere inbetween those numbers

Brigitte Nielsen stated on german tv that her ex-husband Sly measured 174-175cm, beeing about 6ft tall and a celeb she should know about height because it´s a matter all the time, if people meet her.
Sly was also virtually the same height as 174cm Michael Schumacher, so the number is believable.
Rob is spot on with 175cm.
Don´t think Sly lost enough to add a current height.

i'm sure sly's only about 5'7" or 5'8". he's quite a bit shorter than arnie, even with heels on.

Look what I've found! Sly in the late sixties working as a male model... more interesting his measurrements. Click Here Click on the third picture of 'Best of Live'. It could have been photoshopped, but it looks real to me. It says 5ft 10in. Let's just assume the modeling took a round number with an 0.25 inches profit for Sly or Mr Stallone was smart enough to let himself be measured in the morning. Case is closed for sure. Peak height: 5ft 9.75in (177 cm) Current height: 5ft 9in (175 cm).

I worked and worked out in the same gym with him I saw him on a scale. It is difficult to determine his size, but at the most I say 5'10". At the filming of Rocky III on a strict diet he was 164 lbs. On steroids a few years later (1988-89) he was 189 lbs. I was at both locations.

Here's a liftless Sly with his wife in heels. She'd be around 5'11 in those heels, you can see the back of his shoe that he isn't wearing big lifts. You could argue 5'8.5" but anything less is really pushing it.
the shredder says on 2/Apr/13
Still at least 5'8 IMO.
Johnny says on 1/Apr/13
I think Stallone's peak height was 5'8.75 - 5'9 (174.5 - 175 cm), and his height in 2013 is a strong 5'7, and by that I mean 5'7.25 (171 cm) I think he definitely have shrunk between 1 - 1.5 inches.
174.5 - 175 cm peak, and his height now is 171 cm. He is 170 cm at absolute shortest in 2013, and 172 cm at absolute tallest. But I still go with 171 cm.
He can still be in the 5'11-range with massive boots.
jasperwazap says on 31/Mar/13
brigette nielsen had an inch on Sly in Cobra she was 5'11.5'' conservative estimate. Sly was wearing boots possiblly 2'' give or take. 5'9'' is a safe estimate for then now 5'8'' most days.
Johan says on 31/Mar/13
I'd say he's about 173 cm nowadays. They've all shrunk(the old action heroes) except for, at least how it seems, Bruce Willis. Looks about Statham's height and he is defiantely within the 173-174 range.
Anonymous says on 31/Mar/13
@Knowitall. Your very wrong sorry. Your guessing imo. Like I said in prev post,she was working on sly during that film and was inches away from his head!! Hes had extensive work on his hair over the last 30 years!..ie weaves,moderate transplants. Your just looking at pictures,that was her job to hide all that work. Sorry I can't agree 1% with your findings.

Sly had a a hair weave,reason I know is because I dated a make-up girl few years back and she worked on expendables 1,hes a really lovely nice guy though she said,but pretty short,never said his height,but shes 5-8 and thinks he is pretty much the same give or take 1/2".
GodFatherJr says on 26/Mar/13
Nothing under 5'8 & 3/4 anything less then that height is laughable.
Also i could believe he is just over 5'9 barefoot but is easily 5'11 to 6'1 max with his shoes
Brad says on 25/Mar/13
Maybe he has a G dome and wears a David Lee Roth rug? Injections in the face are correct, takes out the wrinkles, some nip & tuck between the eye & ear.
Brad says on 24/Mar/13
That does look like a hairpiece. I guess he's got issues with his hair & height.
[Editor Rob: ain't a hairpiece, it's war wounds.]
Junior31 says on 24/Mar/13
"remove the hairpiece and let him stand In regular shoes and you'd see an aging five foot seven bald guy with a crooked mouth". Has to The greatest line in the history of celeb heights. I literally laughed for ten mins. All jokes aside your friggen right lol
the shredder says on 23/Mar/13
Rob , come on , admit after all these years that G is in FACT 5'8 and you are 5'9.5 and rigged the stadiometer :P .
Knowitall says on 23/Mar/13
He looks dreadful for a man only 66 years of age.
There's no hate on my part. I just want people to know the man wears a rug. And a bad one at that.
Stallone has spent a fortune on plastic surgery. His face looked so awful in A Bullet in the Head that where I saw it, some members of the audience actually gasp when they first saw him. A woman behind me commented he looked awful. "Hideous" was how she described him.
Look, if he's that much vanity controlling his life, it stands to reason he never leaves home without his rug and his lifts. Remove the hairpiece and let him stand in regular shoes and you'd see an aging five foot seven bald guy with a crooked mouth.
Zach says on 23/Mar/13
Knowitall - what's the relevance of Slys hair on this website? That's just hate. The guy looks awesome for his age. Come back and show us your hair at 67.
Knowitall says on 23/Mar/13
Not only is Stallone short, wears monster lifts, he's bald and wears an obvious toupee:

Notice the obvious lacing and glue at his hairline.

I just recently purchased a G series mouse for my computer. No Sal button, oh well. Sly's a weak 5'8"...is he gonna pull tricks next to Bobby D in that boxing movie?

My opinion has varied so much on him because I'm not sure on his exact cm but I'm sure on his range but I do know a guy under 5'8.5 or more peak would NOT look as tall as he has. What I don't understand is that a few are so stuck on he was max 5'8.5 and now a weak 5'8 like its a f**act.
*cough* Brad *cough*
Brad says on 22/Mar/13
Shred has it, strong 5' 8.5" peak, weak 5' 8" now. G-zuss: 5' 10.75", "I'm 5 feet 8 and canya cee he has me by 2 and 3 quartahs". Norris has been rockin' in custom wedged boots for 2 decades. Sly wore mega monsters in Cobra, Mariah Carey-like heeled mayhem. His Rambo boots had so much wedge he was falling forward on the running stops.

I use to think he was 5'10 to 5'11 even before G came along . 5'8.5 is the bare minimum peak I can buy. I think he is 5'8 to 5'9 now , no way over a weak 5'9 in years.
dmeyer says on 20/Mar/13
Whi would sly let norris apear taller than him in the movie and premiere, in the movie sly had small lifts as he apears 5'9,5-9,75 somwear 5,10,5 shoes on and norris looks a bit taller so norris must have had stillts 5,8,25 plus 3 "
scott says on 20/Mar/13
looked the exact same height standing next to 6'1" brigette nielsen is cobra, so I really dont know!!
I would give him a 5'10" in his younger days
the shredder says on 18/Mar/13
I was watching Judge Dredd and he looked about 6'3 lol.
Brad says on 18/Mar/13
I met my astronaut but didn't get my fries in the Volvo backseat bed before measurement. Chuck wore monster cowboy boots on WTR, he was getting owned by women in heels and 6 footers every show. Sal, the napkins, Rob is in an hour with the device.
Arch Stanton says on 16/Mar/13
Chuck Norris surprises me, I thought he'd be too manly to care about his height.
francesco says on 15/Mar/13
For me stallone is 5'8,25"(173,5cm)in evening 5'9"(175cm) in morning
Peack was 5'9.75" (177 cm) in the morning
5'7" is ridiculous
Arnold was 6'1,75" (187cm) in morning 6'0.75" (184.5cm)in evening and now is 6' (183cm) in morning and 5'11 (180.5cm) in evening
the shredder says on 14/Mar/13
5'10 and 3/4 , we all met are postmen.
the shredder says on 13/Mar/13
Agree Zach , the more I think about it the more I think he lost at least 1/2 from peak. The reasons I still think 5'9 peak is because of how tall he looked in lifts even just 5 years ago. With Hogan and Denzel he looks 6'0 , lifts can only do an under 5'9 guy so much. IMO he is 5'8.5 now if he was measured in army posture, which is how a person should measure , 5'9 is just my safe bet peak because I honestly still not sure what I give give but agree he looks 5'8 to 5'9 max now.
Brad says on 13/Mar/13
Norris is a notorious custom boot wearer, it probably drove Sly crazy.
Zach says on 12/Mar/13
Rob good find re Norris's boots. Sly's wearing more modest footwear these days, had he whipped out his munsters he would probably still look taller than Norris.
Dmeyer - I'm as surprised as you that Sly allowed a fellow 5'8er to be taller than him in ExII given that he directed the movie. If you watch Bullet to the Head they used the camera angles to make Sly look as tall as the 6'1 chinese guy. In the premiere pics they couldnt do that and Sly was several inches shorter. Shredder - yes I agree, I've never agreed with either 5'10.75 or 5'7. Even now I think he's somewhere in the 5'8 range.
the shredder says on 12/Mar/13
under 5'9 now , 5'8.5 would be better than 5'9 current
Junior31 says on 11/Mar/13
Those pics of him w norris r bizarre. Makes no sense. Rob what do u think???
[Editor Rob: chuck's not adverse to big footwear, at the expendables 2 premiere he's got like big chunky cowboy heels]
Brad says on 11/Mar/13
Amazing picture with Norris. Both weak 5 feet eights. Both love lifts.
Derek D says on 11/Mar/13
Dmeyer says on 11/Mar/13
How does he let Norris apear taller than him in the Movie and at the premiere
Anyone have photos of the shoes Norris was wearing? Must of been some big lifts
the shredder says on 11/Mar/13
Thank you Zach for your kind words. We all have are moments even I have the worst moments. I have the film on DVD and yes I agree he did look taller and it could be like you said Chuck not losing much or lifts or who knows? LOL even I admit he really does look closer to 5'8 now , I just think he was a 5'9 guy when he was in his prime like 35 ish. The main Reason I think he was 5'9 peak was because of how tall he looked in lifts and I do think it was possible he measured at his claims in boots but that is just my opinion , but his claims aside I see a 5'9 guy peak and 5'8 now , but lets face it ... 5'10.75 and 5'7 then or now is insane :}
Dmeyer says on 11/Mar/13

Zach says on 10/Mar/13
We've seen plenty of pictures where Sly and Arnie look very close in height in recent years. But then you get scenes like this where Arnold looks to be towering over Sly once again: Click Here
Zach says on 10/Mar/13
Maybe my responses were a bit ott shredder in which case I apologise. If you watch or watched the Expendables II all the angles with Sly and Norris are actually very awkward, it took a bit of effort to get even those screenshots which are better than nothing hence felt bit annoyed at your instant complaint. Watch the scene in ExII and you'll understand.
Anyway back to height - Chuck norris is listed at 5'8.5 and looks taller in both the movie and the premiere pic. Either he's wearing even bigger lifts than Sly or Sly is actually shrinking and at a greater rate than Norris, who is in his 70s.
The Shredder says on 10/Mar/13
Zach listen to yourself. All I said to you was why post bad pics and look at your reply. " They're for everyone not just someone of limited understanding ". That is just ignorant and really uncalled for and egotistical and for the Glenn type of mouth? Well you deserved it. Everybody that ever fights with you is do to you being a smart ass and even Rob will tell you your pics where bad, it is just a fact and nothing personal and you turn into a fascist.
Here are bad yet better pics than you posted and I will say Sly does look short.

Junior31 says on 9/Mar/13
Parker I don't think he's 5'7 flat either but he's certainly not 5'9 anymore. Again we r talking about a man 4 years shy of his seventieth birthday! And to be honest wouldn't be shocked if he wasn't wearing some sort of lifts in those shots. His footwear has always been absurd ala the Franco-Arnold picture
Original says on 9/Mar/13
176 peak.
Zach says on 9/Mar/13
Listen shreder when I post pics they're for everyone not just someone of your limited understanding. All you ever do is whinge and whine so if you dont have anything productive to say or provide a better angled picture why open that glenn type mouth of yours? They may be not be great angles but they were the only ones in the movie and bad angled pictures are better than no pictures. Unless of course you have better pictures which we're still waiting for? Exactly.

The Shredder says on 9/Mar/13
He can look only 5'8 nowadays. Even I admit this and do agree he needs a downgrade. Zach , All I'm saying is that those are just bad pics to judge from and your childish replies are what really makes you come off as a prick. Sorry Rob had to be said.
The Shredder says on 9/Mar/13
Zach you talk so much smack. Get in a ring with Sly and see if you last 2 rounds.
GUK says on 8/Mar/13
He's clearly not 5ft 10, but I don't believe he's as low as 5ft 7 munsters or not. The guy might be slightly under average. Whatever size he is he comes across as a nice guy and he's made some entertaining films. Viva Sly.
Zach says on 8/Mar/13
It's only difficult to judge for low IQ individuals. Instead of winging as always shredder go get a better screenshot from ExII.
Knowitall says on 8/Mar/13
Check it out. Trust me. Gazzara is wearing bedroom slippers. You can see them in the film. He's clearly three inches taller than Stallone:
Click Here
Also, watch the trailer for Capone on youtube. In the opening where Gazzara is walking down a corridor with a group of men, Stallone can be seen walking behind him. It's obvious he's shorter. And not by just an inch and a half.
Stallone didn't wear lifts in the film which is why he appears shorter.
He's no more than five seven and 1/2. Today, probably five seven max. He wears lifts that make him appear to be near five ten.
Brad says on 8/Mar/13
5' 8.5" with Ben.
Knowitall says on 8/Mar/13
Derek, Gazzara didn't wear lifts. In one scene he's wearing slippers.
If Stallone wore lifts in that film and still appeared shorter......well, those were really bad lifts!
the shredder says on 8/Mar/13
WHY do folks post the most hardest pics to judge? Really Zach ?
Derek D says on 7/Mar/13
Knowitall says on 7/Mar/13
I stick by five seven to five seven and a half. The evidence is just too great.
Explain why in Capone that Stallone is around three inches shorter than Ben Gazzara? And please don't try to convince me Gazzara was six feet. He admitted himself to being "barely five foot ten." And he didn't wear lifts in the film. Neither did Stallone.
He was shorter than Ben, but how do you know either of them didn't wear lifts. Did you look in their shoes before their scenes?
the shredder says on 7/Mar/13
Ben Gazzara is the perfect example of a weak 5'10 , even Swayze edged him out . I can not find great photos of them but I found about 2 where Ben's head is tilted and looks a hair taller and other where it looks about 1.5 , Really need to see them but If he is at least 1.5 than Sly 5'8.5 is perfect and not as crazy as I though.
Brad says on 7/Mar/13

Come on Knowitall get real 5'7 to 5'7.5 ? I can buy him maxing 5'8.5 nowadays and maybe 5'8 or 5'8.25 but come on 5'7 is crap
Knowitall says on 5/Mar/13
He's five seven to five seven and a half. Too many people who've seem him barefoot have stated that's his height. He almost always wears shoes that elevate him to five ten max.
Even wearing height-enhancing shoes, he's still a couple of inches shorter than his brother Frank:

Junior31 says on 4/Mar/13
Disagree here Shredder. I don't have a height complex nor am I bias towards tall or short. What Iam talking about is accuracy. Sylvester Stallone is an iconic figure but none the less i just don't grasp his listing on here when A he's almost 70 and B he's doesn't look at all his height with ppl comparable plus he's shoes always look like something from his movie judge dredd. His listing goes against every thing this great site stands for. Its like stallone is immune to everything that is applicable to every other celebrity on this site
Brad says on 4/Mar/13
Those custom Rocky boots are 3.5's, the heel alone is just over 2". What kind of idiot thinks those things only get 2 inches? Height complex? I'm 6 feet 8 today in ski boots.
The Shredder says on 4/Mar/13
Brad , stop talking smack . Even ROB who knows more about height than you has said the Rocky boots add max 2 inches.
the shredder says on 4/Mar/13

Those Rocky boots are the classic 3.5's....great for close-ups, laughter for the master shot. Those colored Munster things in the line-up are priceless. Jean-Claude looks like hell.
Junior31 says on 3/Mar/13
It's hysterical. Every pic posted shows him clearly under 5' 9 and the ones when he looks it or something like it hes wearing absurd footwear. Statham isnt even 5'10.
Knowitall says on 3/Mar/13
Parker, there's no bias, at least in my part.
That photo you linked is tilted to favor Stallone. Check the vertical line on the rear column. It's angled to to right. And ever with that, Stallone is still and inch to and inch and a half shorter. And we all know he hardly ever wears rugular shoes.
Check out this photo showing Stallone walking next to Statham where we see he's shorter along with the lifts he's obviously wearing:

All these action film actors are excessively short, aren't they? I'm thirteen and some months and I'm 5'10" making me the same height as Jason Statham (a bit taller), taller than Stallone, according to Arnie's rumoured shrunken height I am as tall as him also, Josh Brolin and Matt Damon, Daniel Craig, it's weird.
Parker says on 3/Mar/13

Stallone was never a smidge above five nine in his entire life.

People look at 5' 9" and think that's his current height. He has never been 5' 9" and the photos with Zito are enough proof he's a weak 5' 8" tops.
Junior31 says on 28/Feb/13
Rob. Love the site a ton and really think ur right on with a lot of your analysis but this sly page is making your site not seem credible. The fact you don't have sly with a peak and current height is absurd the dudes almost seventy! And every bit of evidence from lifts to pics with others who's heights are known are proving this guy isn't currently 5'9 . There's nothing current that points to him being 5'9 AT ALL. This guy needs a Sub 5'9 downgrade! The validity of this site depends on it! Lol
5'9 peak
5'8.5 current.
Again he's almost seventy!!! C'mon mannn
Brad says on 28/Feb/13
Hey Shredder, just go to The Smoking Gun,most of his felony arrest sheets can be pulled up. He was in the federal system for years for dealin meth with the Hell's Angels, the federal arrest stuff was all over the place back in the day as well as his other arrests. He isn't a "bodyguard". Stallone can't take the chance of employing a "bodyguard" with a felony rap sheet containing years in the pen because he'd be sued to the stone age after 1 punch for knowingly employing such.
the shredder says on 28/Feb/13
Rob , I do have to ask why not a current 5'8.5 ? He does look shorter than his peak .
[Editor Rob: maybe in a few years]

Brad , do you really believe to BS that you write? Talk about making up things.

This is why you have absolutely NO credibility in my eyes and never have. Within a span of 2 days you change your peak height of his. You've done the same with so many people. You have no idea and keep guessing and changing depending on your mood, the weather, what you ate the night before, etc...

The past few months of sly's height analysis from the page call for one thing. Stallone needs a downgrade especially at 66. 5'9 is becoming laughable. C'mon rob!
Junior31 says on 26/Feb/13
Met zito a bunch of times he s 5'10. 5'10.5 max. Def shocked at how much taller he was then Stallone in those pics. Looks nothing more then 5'8. For those of you thinking zito is in lifts he very well could be but then again sly is usually the lift wearer. Is it possible zito is wearing lifts and sly isn't? Highly unlikely......
