Rob, what do you estimate the rapper Biggie Smalls height to be?
Willy says on 17/Jan/12
Nah, he can't be taller that 5'7, this is ridiculous
socoman says on 22/Dec/11
Tyson is 5"10 and he had about 3 inches on 2pac here is the photo Click Here
socoman says on 20/Dec/11
Her is much shorter than the 5'10 Mike Tyson
james says on 18/Dec/11
He is 5'9.5 AT LEAST, 5'11 AT MOST, most likely 5'10 barefoot, but he looks 5'8 - 5'9 because he has really small proportions, very skinny, very small not broad shoulders, and had HORRIBLE POSTURE, he was also surrounded by people that were in the 6'1 to 6'5 range almost ALWAYS.

just GOOGLE 2pac inmate picture id! It says 5'11 (most likely in shoes)= 5'10 barefoot
Iggy says on 25/Nov/11
Pac was for sure 5´10-5´11 becasue near Wood Harris who is 188-190cm he didnt less than that
Dural says on 21/Nov/11
As listed
the shredder says on 21/Nov/11
I agree that he was at least 5'10 , look at him with Rourke ... Rourke 5'11 needs to be listed 5'10 then lol .
Makaveli777 says on 18/Nov/11
there is no way he is shorter than 5' 10" he looked the same height as james belushi who is 5' 11". looks about 5-6 inches smaller than 6' 4" snoop dogg and about 4 inches shorter than 6' 2-3" suge knight.
the shredder says on 16/Nov/11
Rob , do you think he could have been over 5'10 ? ... He was the same height as 5'11 Mickey Rourke and not shorter then Omar Epps .
[Editor Rob: I'd be surprised if he ever was that tall]
toby says on 15/Nov/11
Doubt he weighed anymore then 160 pounds, he had a slender build
Jay says on 11/Nov/11
Tupac was 5'11
Shaun says on 10/Nov/11
I could buy 5'10" but 6' is ridiculous.
JOSH says on 4/Nov/11
i dont believe 2pac was 5'7" his wife when she said that you can tell she was guestimating .he was taller then 5'7 theirs pictures of him standing next to dr dre who 6'1 and he looks to be almost the same height so i'm gonna go with the 5'10/11ish ..also in 94 pac was what 23/24 ?..you dont stop growing till almost 30..people tend to forget 2pac was just a kid
CLC says on 23/Oct/11
Pac was exactly 5'10 and weighed 170lbs before he died in 96'. I've personally asked a friend who was close to him before the time of his death.
shawnna says on 5/Oct/11
tupac amaru shakur was 5'9. and about 165lbs he wasn very big but his words were powerful
Viper says on 2/Oct/11
LOL, he was not 5-10 or 5-11.

He didnt look any taller than 5-9 physically and he looked no taller than that with 6-2 Suge Knight.
Leo says on 29/Sep/11
Rob: I was sure he was 5ft 7. Your description has 3 different heights? Are you estimating 5ft 9 or is this accurate? Thanks
Manda says on 26/Sep/11
He was a few inches taller than his 5'7" model gf Kidada. look up ics with them together. He was at least 5'10". Also his police pic says 5'11" so im guessing it's right.
Sean says on 26/Sep/11
I noticed that notorious big isnt listed on here and every other website says he was 6'3. I do not believe that at all he looks 6 foot maybe 6'1 does anyone else agree with me? He always looked about 2 to 2 and a half inches taller than 5'10.5 p diddy

There's no way he was 5' 9"
bunch of phaggots itt. says on 5/Sep/11
2Pac was definitely 5' 7". He was much shorter than 5' 10" Mike Tyson.
tell-em says on 2/Sep/11
something's not right about that article. 5'7", 165lbs? lol. pac was skinny. at 5'7" he wouldn't weigh 165 lbs. he was 5'9".
gstyle says on 1/Sep/11
ok lets get this, i'm not sure what height to give pac but in the film juice especialy in the scene where the are walking to the bar to get ciggerettes and when he is tying his laces..he looks pretty short like 5,7...then in above the rim he looks short in the green shirt when he is waiting for his brother (not comparing him to shep) another thing people look tall..depends on their body structure...pac had low shoulders but a high/long kneck cus he was slim. i have frieds who appear taller than me but when i stand next to them my shoulders are above their shoulders but their head is same height as mine or shorter. certain frames make u look taller...tupac weighlifted and worked his delts and traps so muscles seem to make his shoulders 'droop' low. study his posture and his physique. he was a shortish lad but appeared tall cus of his slim size. real talk.
chilean says on 31/Aug/11
5'8.5 for tupac.. no more no less
2pacFan says on 16/Aug/11
Here is the link to the article about his ex-wife stating his height as 5'7.

2pacFan says on 16/Aug/11
In an Interview with source magazine back in '96 the journalist said he was 5'6. Years later, source magazine interviewed his ex wife and she reiterated that he was not tall and was 5'7.
Reality says on 23/Jul/11
he was 5'11 (mugshot).
the truth says on 10/Jul/11
he was 5'10''. like barely maybe 5'9.75''. look at him compared to other people. the autopsy is fake.
Spence says on 21/Jun/11
Solid 5'9
DSmooth says on 17/Jun/11
In the movie Juice, Tupac was shorter than 5'10 Omar Epps.
toby says on 29/May/11
not as small as most people think

I reckon about 5'10(178 cm).
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 20/May/11
Not 5"11(180cm) but he could've been close to 5"10 like 177cm
cap says on 3/May/11
To those people saying that 2 pacs height at his autopsy was measured at six foot because his spine was straightend .
If thats true then that would be his true height.
In life a lot of people have a stooped kind of posture and don't hold themselves striaght which will make a person look shorter than they really are.
Your true height is the height you are when your spine is straightened .
Also pac hung out with a lot of tall people a lot of people in movies look shorter than they really are because most of the rest of the cast are taller.
most official sources have pac as being between 5 10 and six foot he was at least S feet 10 and possibly up to 6 foot.
RealView says on 21/Mar/11
BigDave dickhead, do some background research ,scientist have confirmed that men still grow into their 20s,of course your pivotal growth spurt occurs during your teenage years but its a fact that you still grow all the way into your 20s,whether your tall over 6ft or not.
Viper says on 21/Mar/11
I don't think anybody would consider anything taller than 5'9 short

You mean 5-8.
Jim S says on 19/Mar/11
I would say 5'8 to 5'9, with examples:
In an interview used in "Tupac Resurrection", he refered to Mike Tyson as big, and himself as small. He was lean but he was muscular, I don't think he was small girth-wise, so I think he was referring to himself as short. I don't think anybody would consider anything taller than 5'9 short.

Rapper Spice 1, a good friend to Tupac, referred to Tupac as short in an interview, and Spice 1 describes himself as 6 foot or 6'1 depending on the song.

Watch Gridlock'd and see what he looks like next to allegedly 5'7 Tim Roth.

Just my 0.02.
warren says on 17/Mar/11
does it really matter how tall tupac was all that matters is hes a legend in the world music all u people are sad to argue about the height of differant rappers its not important on there height :/
younghustla says on 11/Mar/11
everybody stop talking about tupac looking tall with boots im 6' 1/8 barefoot and with my construction boots im 6'1 .25/4.00 and almost 1 inch does not make you "taller than other people on pictures". the average height of a man 16 and up is 5'9 .25/4 and in all of tupacs pictures(with people around his height) he is about 1 to 2 inches taller than them which makes him about 5'10 5'11
Big Dave MD says on 11/Mar/11
RealView you fool. Vertical growth ceases around 21 years of age on average. Rarely it continues for a year more but this is usually when the individual is of abnorally large height already (>6 ft 3) eg. Dennis Rodman. So no there is no such thing as a young adult growth spurt unless you mean the late teenge growth spurt.
RealView says on 9/Mar/11
You dudes crack me up, pac was most likely around 5'11 or 6 ft. The fact they recorded him at 6ft on his autopsy would mean he probably was even taller in his later days. Not from your spine being compressed after death,in fact in death I would imagine one to be much shorter.You have to remember you still grow slightly after 21 all the way to 26. So Pac must've had his young adult growth spurt.
curtis says on 25/Feb/11
i believe he is 5.9" to 5.10" tall.
J says on 16/Feb/11
I have read everyone's comments and looked at everyone's pictures, and I have to say Tupac looks to be around 5'10" or 5'9". We all have to remember that Tupac looks tall in some pictures, because he was wearing lifts (boots that make people appear tall). Who cares what his mugshot read, because mugshots just go off of what the driver's license reads. My license says I'm 6'3", but I am really a solid 6'1.5".
d wade says on 11/Feb/11
tupac isnt 5,11 he was shorter than 5,10 Mike Tyson 5,9 or 5,8 is right for him.

Your "sighting" is crazy
Cam says on 6/Feb/11
This is crazy. Unlike most people on here guessing tupacs height I have actually met the dude back in 1996 when I was 19 years old. I was 6,2 at the time and pac looked at least 6.0 with jordans on. So 2pac's height was 5'11/5'10 barefoot. Why would you downgrade him to 5'9 when his mugshot says 5'11 and his autopsy said 6ft why would the police lie lol ?

Upgrade him to 5'11/5'10
Anonymous says on 27/Jan/11
no 2pac was 5"5 5"8 he just look taller cuz everybody was sittin down or in back or him DMX only 5"6 so wtf lol
Mathew says on 26/Jan/11
Context: Snoop is 6'3.5", Suge Knight 6'2", Mike Tyson is 5'10".
Viper says on 26/Jan/11
6-2 Suge Knight had at least 5 inches on him.
Lewis says on 9/Jan/11
I think he was in the 5'10-5'11 range barefooted.

dr.dre at 6ft would make denzel washington 6'1.5 but i agree tupac was 5'9 and no more than.
tell-em says on 4/Jan/11
you guys laughs. 2pac was 5'9". he looked 5'10" because 99.9% of the time he was in boots. he was the same height as 5'9" jamie foxx. barely if at all taller than 5'8" stephen baldwin. watch the making of california love video. easily 3 inches shorter than 6'0" dr. dre and they were in the same footwear. suge knight is 6'2". those pics of him n snoop are terrible becuz snoop is in the back.
Suge isn\'t 6\'2\'\' says on 17/Dec/10
@ all the epople who think Suge knight is 6'2'', look at picture of him wih snoop dogg. The are the same height,Snoop Dogg is 6'4' so Suge is also 6'4''.

2pac with 5'6'' Jermaine Hopkins, 5'10'' Omar epps(leaning) and 5'11'' Khalil Kain.
He\'s 5\'10\'\' says on 7/Dec/10

Same height as Snoop Dogg (6'4'')

This proves comparative height varies with different circumstances but I think 2pac was 5'10'' most of the time, he was in fact TALLER than Omar epps in juice despite the fact many say Omar epp is taller.

2pac with a 5'11'' (or 5'10" or 5'10.5" in other sources)Puffy.
Puffy wiht a ht on comes up to 2pac's eyebrows, however he is leaning so this proves 2pac is taller thn P. diddy which means he is at least 5'11'' or maybe Puffy is shorter than what he claims.

2pac with a 6'3'' biggie and a 5'11'' puffy.
anonymous says on 5/Dec/10
2pac claimed to be 5'10''. His driver's license says 5'10''. When measured in Jail he was 5'11'' (with shoes). Autopsy result was 6 ft because
1) your taller laying down
2) his spine was fully stretched out.

Click Here

In this video 2pac is clearly two inches taller than two of the members of metallica, one inch taller than one and about 3 inches shorter than the other.
The two memebers he is 2 inches taller than are 5'8''. The member he is an inch taller than is 5'9''. The man he is 3 inches shorter than is 6'1'' which all averages out to 5'10''.
Also in the video snoop dogg towers over 2pac, snoop dogg is 6'5''. and when you are 7 inches taller than someone you definately tower over them. Add in the fact his hat is on giving him another 4 inches on 2pac and thats almost a whole foot over 2pac.
2pac wasn't very tall, but he wasn't very short either. He was less than an inch over average height.

go watch dr.dre in training day. if that's 6'0 then im santa claus.

dr. dre 5'10"? what are YOU smoking kid?
jtm says on 19/Nov/10
dr dre is 5'10.
anonymous says on 18/Nov/10
2pac was known to wear big boots with heels, which is probably why he claimed 5'11" and why some ppl mistaked his height as 5'10" 5'11". he was the same height as 5'9" jamie foxx. here he is w/ 6'0" dr. dre: Click Here pac is closer to the camera and has the footwear advantage, but good pic nonetheless.
Anonymous says on 7/Nov/10
Compare him to people closer to height not suge. And btw I'm 5'11'' and I come up to the top of my 6'2'' friend's nose. 2pac comes up to the top of 6'2'' Suges nose too. 2pac was taller than Diddy, puffy, puff daddy, whatever. Puff daddy is 5'10.5'' which means he can't be 5'9''. He was a little shorter than 5'11 1/2'' Mike tyson meaning he can't be 6'0''. He was same height as Omar epps in Juice, who is 5'10''. He is much taller than 5'7'' Tim Roth. He was shorter than a 6'0'' Jim Belushi. He was a little taller than 5'9'' Jaimie Foxx. This means hes at least 5'9'' and 5'11'' MAX. I'd say he's 5'10'' which is what he claimed to be, measured 5'11'' in Jail, but he probably had shoes on, and 6'0'' at death but he was laying down so hes taller.



5'10''
Female says on 21/Oct/10
On board it does say 5'11", I was blown away having been in love with this lil' shortie, so I turned to YOUTUBE, watching GANG RELATED with JIM BELUSHI, he's shorter than Belushi, there's a fighting, wrestling scene. Tupac is 1 -2 inches shorter.
