He was 6'1.5" max, maybe slightly shorter. One example, 1955's "Violent Saturday", is his scene with 6' Richard Egan. Because of his large physique, Mature appeared to be much taller in his movies, but the test is when he appears alongside other tall actors of known height. Another example is 1952's "Million Dollar Mermaid", where Mature is in scenes with legit 6'3" David Brian, a noticeably taller actor.

Victor Mature was not 6'5. He was as stated, 6'2.5. Don Sr. says on 6/Aug/11
I stood within 3' of him in 1954 at Miramar NAS in San Diego. I'm 6'2" and he was at least 6' 5". He was in full costume that included Roman sandals (or what ever they call those strap on thingies.) He was a BIG Guy! Don Sr. says on 6/Aug/11
In 1955, I stood within 3' of him at Miramar Naval Air Station when his plane was diverted there. He was in make-up and full attire and wearing what appeared be Roman sandals. He stood a full 6'4" at a minimum. I'm 6'2! Rampage(-_-_-)Clover says on 4/Jun/11
