With mamum this man look approx 6 feet tall, with paul 178-179 cm is correct, with mamum have better posture. samson27 says on 17/Jan/10
im 5'10 not 5'11 was measuring in 1'' shoes. any was him vernon and arnold look around my height and were boots, height shoes to appear taller like 6'1 or more, they always look average height and are tallered over by 6'3-6'4 guys. samson27 says on 10/Jan/10
in commando movie i though this guy was tall like 6'1 or more , but with the shoes 2-4 ''boots it helps. im 5'11 and i dislike being short,going give me some height boots. well anyways arnold in commando was only about 2'' taller so they both were boots in film. arnold 6'peak , this guy 5-10.
remember they wore military boots in movie can give 2-4'' hgt.both arnold and vernon wells always looks average hgt in movies,they wore boots hgts make them taller, i remember the movie twins-arnold devito arnold looks 6'tops.were boots also in that movie, devito 5'2-5'3. Mamun says on 2/Dec/09
He has a much better posture in my picture than he has with ROB !

Looks much taller next to Mamun that he does next to Rob. It's possible that he shrunk.

does anyone think he looked like freddie mercury in the commando film??
Hahah, yes. For years before I knew this guys name, I always referred to him as the villain in Commando who looks like Freddie Mercury. Hugh 191cm says on 2/Nov/09
I thought 6ft1 at least! derek d says on 24/Oct/09

does anyone think he looked like freddie mercury in the commando film?? Harry says on 31/Aug/09
he looks about 5'10 and a half. is he gay? Adam says on 6/Aug/09
Prime Minister Rudd of Australia is 5"11 rob89 says on 1/Aug/09
Looks 5'9ish to me (176-177 cm), not counting his hair of course. Could be a full 5'10, but absolutely nothing more. 6'2, even with the hair, is ridiculously laughable. Doug says on 18/Jul/09
5'10", 6'2" with the hair. derek d says on 12/Jul/09
Well Arnold only had around two inches on him in Commando. So either Arnold was only 6'0.25 in Commando(which I doubt), Vernon wore lifts or he simply has lost height since. rk says on 6/Jul/09
in commando he looked about 6' maybe Mathew says on 15/Jun/09
Fair enough listing. Doug says on 25/Mar/09
Huh there is a picture of Angelina Jolie looking 5'9" next to Condoleezza Rice HOARDAK says on 24/Feb/09
Don't forget VERNON WELLS (who I figured was 6'1") reprised his ROAD WARRIOR character "WEZ" in 1985's WEIRD SCIENCE, one of my A.T.F.s & 1989's romantic comedy "SHRIMP ON THE BARBIE" with his ROAD WARRIOR co-star BRUCE SPENCE "The GYRO Captain" (who has got to be between 6'3"& 6'6") & Richard "CHEECH" Marin who I think is somewhere between 5'6" & 5'9". SuperAnonymous says on 7/Jan/09
In the airport scene in Commando, when he is standing next to Arnold, Bill Duke, Arnold is towering over him by 4 inches easily. Anonymous says on 14/Dec/08
I could see he wore lifts in commando, hes definatly small. Anonymous says on 9/Dec/08
I meant same size as arnold schwarzenegger in commando, if not taller. Anonymous says on 30/Nov/08
This guy looked exactly same size EXACTLY SAME SIZE IN COMMANDO IF NOT, TALLER! el toppo says on 12/Oct/08
No way! **** off! I always thought this cat was at least 6 foot 1! He looked tall in Road Warrior ("ARGH! You can run! But you can't hide!") and roughly Arnolds height in Commando ("John? Stick yer head out! One shot. Right between the eyes. I'll make it quick, just for old times sake!") **** me. Learn something new every day. Does he still have his Australian accent?
[Editor Rob: yes, not as strong mind you.] D-Lurker says on 20/Dec/07
hahahahahaha, totally cool..oh your secret is safe with me mate, i won't tell anyone.. D-Lurker says on 19/Dec/07
great actor, distinctive looks..thought he was cool in "Fortress", were he looked very tall..by crikey i too would not have picked 5'10"..what was he like in person rob?
[Editor Rob: what was he like in person?
Just between you and me, here's another pic -
Rob and Vern.
don't you go tellin my girlfriends now!] dmeyer says on 2/Oct/07
rob was he taller as a younger so you can give him peak height
[Editor Rob: he's 60 there, so yeah maybe 179cm is closer.] dmeyer says on 2/Oct/07
look more 5'10.5 with you rob exept if he had more shoes was probably aleast 5'11 back in comando Steevn says on 27/Jun/07
Aged alot? Road Warrior came out 1981, and he looks the same... but 25 years older, duh. Still wouldn´t wanna get in a fight with this dude. Pretty sure he was part of a REAL commando unit once. Not just that Arnie-flick. Mr. T says on 23/Jun/07
Hey, Bennett! Has aged a lot. guy says on 23/Jun/07
I don't think filmakers are concerned about maintaining realism when it comes to casting actors. They have always smudged certain actors actual attributes through tricks and tactics. There is no reason to think actors on screen are exactly proportional to their actual specs. This guy above seemed 3 or 4 inches taller than 5'9" Dan Hedaya in commando. So there we have the problem because Schwarzy is only slightly taller as depicted in their final showdown. Bill Duke, whom Schwarzy fights and kills in the motel room is listed as 6'4". He seems only a bit taller, maybe a couple of inches, than Arnold. Markus says on 22/Jun/07
And he played in Wierd Science as well haha! Kelly leBrock :P Markus says on 22/Jun/07
Was he the mad bulky punker guy with the red mohawk in Mad Max 2?
I thought he looked at least 6'1" ...but he was quite a bit shorter than that body builder gangleader in the leather suit though. Some swedish guy, whom I read was 190 cm.
[Editor Rob: yes, mohawk guy on bike. I thought he'd be bigger too...] The Horse of FUNK says on 22/Jun/07
Whoa you've gotta be kidding me. He's only 5'10? He looks wayyyyyy taller in Commando for some reason. King says on 31/May/07
Let off some steam, Bennett! |
