I am suspicious about Travolta being 6ft2."
Hugh have heard the word "shoe lifts"? That's the explanation why Travolta goes from 6"0 to 6"2 sometimes. Don't be naive, he's clearly 6"0(183cm). He looks tallish in movies like saturday night fever coz he's surrounded by short people and he wears his 70's high heels.

6'2'' sounds right. In his "Welcome Back, Kotter" days, he was about an inch shorter than co-star Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs (Freddie "Boom-Boom" Washington), who is 6'3''. In Domestic Disturbance, he was no more than 3 inches shorter than 6'5'' Vince Vaughn. Great movie!"
You're stretching travolta's height. Travolta himself has said he's 6 feet tall and a little bit. 6"2 is too much. He's tall but not that tall.

Ok, Travolta is 183cm, a legit 6"0. He hasn't lost any centimeters since his teen days. Rob has him perfect. He's a tall guy and looks tall all the time.

about 30 years ago I was leaving a phone booth and John Travolta was waiting to enter. We were eye to eye. I was 5 foot 7/8 inches. He is much shorter than he claims. Typical celebrity. I was very surprised to see how short he really is. This took place just outside "Just Desserts" in San Francisco.

6 ft. Allison Janney was clearly taller than him in Primary Colors. I'd say 5' 10". Then again the weight he put on for that movie may have pulled him down an inch or so.

"then why do 5'8 guys come up to his eyes?
people can lose 4 inches in height.
he is more likly 5'11 now. you can lose height in your 40's."
Dude, what are you smokin'? it's impossible that a human being can lose 4 inches of height unless he has a serious illness. People lose normally between 2-3 centimeters starting in his late 50's. If you exercise properly, you can delay the time when you start losing height.
Glenn says he's seen Travolta go from 5"11-6"2: the explanation is simple: he wears lifts to make him look taller. Travolta is 6'0(183cm)which is his height since his teen years. I don't think he's lost height yet.

I can't believe that the editor has Travolta at 1.83cm. He's a weak 5'11(1.80cm)at best. Glenn is 5'8 and Travolta looks only a couple inches taller than Glenn. You guys should think about downgrade Travolta. I'ts clear he wears lifts from the way he walks. People who are saying he's 6'1 or 6'2. You guys are way off.

What is with this. the guy has to be 6'1. he's about 2 inches shorter than jackson so saying he is below 6'0 is absurd. and is it just me, or did he seem way taller than nic cage in face off. i remember cuz he was about the same hight as the african american who played tito, if not taller, and then when they switch faces and nic cage is playing the character he is at least an inch shorter. why must everyone downgrade celebrity's can't they be their real height.

The barefoot dancing scene with Uma Thurman from Pulp Fiction should end this discussion. She is what, 5'11? He look at the very least 1 inch taller but could even be 1.5 inches taller in some parts during the dancing scene. 6'0.25 - 6'0.5 sounds good for peak.

john's height is really weird. in FACE/OFF he appears shoter than Nic Cage, who i think its fair to say is 6'0. i dunno whether its cos he has a belly and is quite overweight in that film. and then in pulp fiction he appears tall, taller than uma thurman and not much shorter than 6'3 samuel l. jackson.

John is definitely a 6-footer, and was definitely 6'1" in his peak. I've seen most of his movies, including several viewings of Sat Night Fever. I don't think he ever reached 6'2", but he came close in his younger days (in his peak).

I think Travolta just gives the impression he's shorter because he's quite burly. He was in much better shape back 20 years ago. In the 70's he was bone thin, in the 80's he was quite buff and in the 90's and now he's fat. In Pulp Fiction he was clearly 2 inches taller than Uma Thurman. At the Academy awards he looked 1 inch max shorter than the Rock and pretty much the same height as Forest Whitaker, maybe half a centimetre shorter. I wish I could show you the proof but I still do not know how to download pictures on to this site. I'd be grateful if someone told me.

This guy was never 6'2. That was one of the most absurd legends that i have never heard. He looked a solid 6 at much. Only see movies when he was at his peak,like grease or saturday night fever. He never looked 6'2. He has always been in the 6 range.

For years I thought this guy was 6ft2. Then I heard about the whole Hollywood height thing. If I became famous they'd probably describe me as 6ft4 lol.

Viper,
don't you see that camera favoures Marcus big time. Without taking this in consideration there would be 3-4" , but in reallity there's no more than 2" difference.

Conaway's nuts. He's gone down the tubes in many ways. He was brilliant in Taxi and did some good stuff on broadway but in the 90s and early 2000s, he got inot some weird stuff - I've seen interviews with him where he's barely coherent.
That said, Conaway was a solid 6'1" and Travolta just a hair over 6'.

He managed to lose a lot of height over the years. These days he looks 6 feet standing shorter than Ray Liotta and Hugh Jackman but in Grease he was 6'2"ish. My gues is he's 183 cms at lowest(in the evening)nowadays and was 186 cms in his peak.

Just this moment (4/25/2008) saw Travolta with Michael Eisner on Fox News. Eisner was at least 3 to 4 inches taller than Travolta. I have to believe that Travolta is NOT as tall as he claims. Have never noticed Eisner towering over stars in recent TV appearances. And he has been on TV a lot over the last couple of years.

I actually thought Cage looked noticeably taller than Travolta in Face Off. That's probably because Cage is skinnier and slouches a lot more. But if he is actually 6ft2 i would not be suprised.

He was never 6'2 , His peak was 184 cm if you ask me , not a chance in hell he was taller .
Look at how Samuel Jackson is at least 2" taller in Pulp Fiction .
Plus being 6'2+ would mean he lost 2.5 inches now ( while he isn't that old ) .
Is he another Hulk Hogan ? Seriously John can thanks the cowboy boots .

Travolta actually looked only about 5'10 in "Hairspray". But he had a lot of padding and added weigh to him there so he couldn't really stand straight. He was shorter than Walken in almost their scenes, except for Travolta's ultra-puffy wig.

he can look a smidge shorter than cage in a few pics in the 90s, so either cage is solid 6'1' wish he is probably not i think' maybe trvolta was never 6 more like 5'11.5 to 5'11.75 ans now 5'11 flat look 6 ft easy with cowboy boots,to me weared elevator or big heels in the movies to look bigger at premieres ,he couldnt have lost more than 0.5 in at early 50s and he look an easy in under 6 ft arnie with relax posture ,rob is it possible john was never 6' but looked 6 ft + because of footwear , i think 182 peak 180 181 now ,even considering posture he look max 3 in on glenn so 5'10.75

oh whoops, made an accident.
5'6 and under is short
5'7-5'9 is below average
5'10-6'1 is average
6'2-6'10 is tall
6'11-7ft w/e is Giant
In new zealand the average is 5'10, but they have been planning on changing it to 6'0 aswell because 50% of the north island is over 6'2(mainly 6'3 to 6'8 guys)
the girls is 5'3 and always has been. about 70% of the north island for females is 5'3-5'6.

Editor Rob well, I'd call legit 6ft guys like say Michael Shanks tall, to 5ft 8 6ft is tall range. 5ft 11, it's what, 1.5 inch above average? so it's tricky. You'd find more women calling a 5ft 11 guy tall though.

Its strange that Travolta looks small next to Glenn, however both men are kinda slouching, and Travolta can look close to forest whitaker whose 6'1 to 6'3..Im guessing (dont know how tall he is but hes over 6 looks like a big guy)Id say Travolta has got to be inbetween 5'11.5 and 6 ..just a guess

Glenn say if you met me 3 tomes and 2 of those times i was wearing lifts in my shoes and the third time you met me i did not wear lifts I wou;ld appear shorter right....My point is Maybe Travolta did not lose height ??? Travolta was heavy a couple of years ago but he was never Obese where the weight made him lose height and he not an Old MAN...I dont know if he did or didnt lose height but there is a good chance he wore lifts also

Glenn: I'm six feet and living in San Diego. Saw one of our high school basketball players at the 10-year reunion (had known him since elementary school). He was a solid 6'2" at school but barely six even at the reunion. Go figure! Saw a similar dude at my 40th reunion a couple years ago - - from 6'2" to 5'11".

Editor Rob you've beaten the average with just 1/4 inch, I'd be happy with that at 60, I think you once posted a pic of yourself with your daughter on here?

Nobody looses height unless he or she is old.
That is all a tall tale.

Glenn: hey dawg! At 60 (later this year) and 230 pounds, I've only shrunk 0.25" from my early twenties. Depends on the person, and other factors, like injuries.
