Kane seems mighty big to be a stuntman but having studied his body structure, he is clearly an enormous great powerhouse of a man and got that way through hard slog. A great deal of weight when packed like that is quite frightening; imagine being near him if he slipped over - he could kill someone!
Ironically, I saw his name come up as the stunt coordinator at the end of a film tonight. I wasn't paying enough attention to be able to name the film for certain so I won't guess as it could be one of two.
In the 'Friday the Thirteenth' series of films, we never get to see his face properly so I didn't have the vaguest idea of what he looked like. He can hardly be called a brilliant actor as his parts were given to him on account of his size and he didn't have to learn any lines to speak of, (sorry!) so it makes sense that he has another showbiz job - that of a stunt coordinator, so fair play to him.

6ft3§ is still a stretch but a big improvement from 6ft5! Possibly an out of bed height (like hed know or even care about that!) but definitely a mark he could hit in regular shoes.
Rob, in the biggest boots available to him could he have reached 6ft5?

Editor Rob some of these boots he has worn could give 2-2.5 inch range, so he might have measured near 6ft 5 in them.

Does anyone know if he is playing Jason again in the upcoming 2017 F13 movie? Apparently they are filming it still but not leaking any cast info.
I keep going around and around with his height. Why is this guy's height so debatable? Sometimes he looks like 6 foot even. And other times he looks 6'4". His boot size seems to be the big question. Not to mention his posture. So, I'm gonna agree with a 6'1" on a good day for this guy. He might have to loose some tummy if he's gonna do Jason again. Just my opinion.

I concur with Gary, when i relax my spine and slouch slightly with my head tilted, i do lose a few inches. This guy looks like a shrimp next to derek mears in that group photo, but there is another taken and he looks an inch shorter - hes standing straight. Of course this guy wears ridiculous boots, new rocks brand which tend to have 3in or more heel/platform. This also helps to explain why he looks taller/shorter, seemingly changing event from event. Sometimes he wears his lifted boots, sometimes he wears normal boots, or perhaps a logger style (still a normal boot though a slightly larger heel). I can buy 6'1 or even 6'1.5 barefoot, then between 6'2.5 to 6'4 in his boots.(standing height in the boots.)

"take off those gloves and shake a hand like a respectable person. Should be hand sanitizer available for hand shake events for fear of touching other's hands."
Not sure what this has to do with height, but since you brought it up, he was horribly burned earlier in his career. His hands look like boiled crabs, pretty sure you would wear gloves too.

I can see him as a legit 6ft3 guy with horrible posture. Maybe in Jason X, he looked 6 ft3, and now he's more of not even close to the that height with rob because he's leaning towards him; head slightly tilted. But not many of you may know this but when your head is slightly tilted, you lose a lot of inches or maybe centimeters, but for Kane's case you may think he doesn't look like he has a neck, we'll he does; and when he hyperextends his posture you'll see the difference between what he really looks and what you see from this photo.

I think he's struggling to hit 6'1". He looks quite small next to Mears, Brooker, and Graham at those conventions. My question would be, why he would NOT wear his thick boots at those so he looks taller. He knows he's going to be standing next to them and others getting photos taken. I think he needs to unfold his arms, take off those gloves and shake a hand like a respectable person. Should be hand sanitizer available for hand shake events for fear of touching other's hands.
Anyway, 6'0" to 6'1" tops and 230-240 lbs.

I just got some Logger boots, and they have around a 2.25" heel and are nowhere near as large as Hodder's. I think you may be right in that he wears a custom boot, as I've searched online for it and can't seem to find any information on it. It really seems to be around a 3" heel. Notice how big the front of the boot is too, in comparison with the back. My logger boots don't have nearly as big a sole on the front. If they do add 3", that would explain why in some photos he appears taller than some 6'3 guys such as Schneider - or near the same height as Tony Todd in a few photos I've seen - and then look so tiny next to Tyler Mane. Some of the pictures of his boots seem to be smaller than others - not sure if this is a camera trick or if he in fact has multiple boots of varying heel heights. Would also explain why some supposedly 6'4 guys on here claim he's the same or near height, whereas some smaller guys also make the claim.

Rob, you mentioned it is likely that his chunky boots add 2" - 2.25" of height, yet at 6'1 that would only make him 6'3.25" at max. John Schneider is 6'3, and with shoes (even dress shoes add a tad bit of height), he would likely be in the 6'3 to 6'3.5 range, perhaps taller. How is it possible for Kane to appear so near, if not AT, 6'4 in his big boots, if they only add 2 inches to his 6'1 height?
---
Hodder's boots definitely add some solid height. He can appear 6'2" - 6'3" in them from time to time in photos but take them off and there's no way he's gonna be much more than 6'1", if that. In his heyday he was probably somewhere around 6'2" (give or take a half inch). I could buy up to (but not over) 6'2.5" but I wouldn't be completely shocked if it turned out he's never even been more than 6'1.5" either. Needless to say, he's lost at least a little bit of height over the years and he wears massive boots that can make him look taller.

Editor Rob in person Schneider appears taller than Hodder to me.
The boots when blown up larger do look quite significant. How much advantage he has is debatable. It could be John has 0.8in shoes and Hodder's give 2.3, I don't know what model or if it's a custom boot Hodder wears Click Here

Maybe at his prime of 6'2/6'2.5 he measured himself in boots and just went with that.
He has obviously taken a battering over the years and lost quite a bit.

The Jason character was billed as 6'3 and always looked 6'3 or taller in the movies even when Hodder wasn't playing him. Other Jason actors were 6'3-6'4 range as well. Hodder Id say between 6'2 and 6'3 peak and today 6'1

I agree with Ali Baba.. Plus, I Think he's been 6' all along.. atleast not over 6'1.. he was wearing BIG heels as Jason(as seen in the arsenio hall interview when he walks up the steps) and even then didn't look that tall.. not in the Movies either. Looked 6' with Chris penn in 'best of the best' too.

He was chucking it up last night on Coast To Coast. The guy is 6' 1" not 6' 5" his resume job height. He got canned from Jason vs Freddy when the producers did test shots with Englund and hired a legit 6' 5.5" actor. Look at the Mears & Mane shot by him, he's getting blown out by a legit 6' 5"er. Wears chunky height enhancing boots at every convention. Said he was stunting on Emergency & Franciscus' Hunter shows....... um, his age is wrong too, Universal doesn't hire teens for stunting.

Met Kane Hodder this past weekend at Spooky Empire. He was wearing thick soled boots. I'd say the listing here is accurate for what Hodder may be barefoot. 6'1appx.

I think he is about 6'1" today. He's 57 and with his career in stunts, I can buy that he's lost a bit of height. I can buy a 188 cm - possibly 189 cm peak height. So I'm fine with as listed, but I very much doubt he was ever any taller barefoot.

on an i-m-d-b threat about this guy, people say he was 5'11 - 6'0 standing next to him where he also had elevator shoes on they said. Interesting really. 1 of those guys also said Russel Crowe is 5'10 standing next to him on level ground. My estimate of him is 6' - 6'1 after watching Wishmaster. But 6ft max? Its not like I would be suprised as actors lie and this guy wears some huge shoes but ye 6'1 max is my estimate peak.

I know this has been mentioned before, but Hodder was likely referring to the Jason character as when he said he was 6'5'', not himself. In an Arrow in the Head interview, Hodder said he was 6'3'' and a half.

Close to 6'3" in his prime (into the early 1990's at least). Just watched Friday the 13th Part 9: Jason Goes To Hell (1993) and at the beginning when the Black Coroner (player by Richard Gant, who is 6'4" and who looked it as Tommy Gunn's manager in Rocky V) is being frisked by the security guard (played by Hodder), he looks to be about 1" taller than him. So, Kane was around 6'3", or just under it in the late 80's/early 90's for sure. I thin he's lost over an inch since then.

He was on Entertainment tonight in the late 80's and they said he was 6'3" and 215 pounds at that time. 6'3" may have been a roundup from 6'2" and change (his peak height). May have lost some height since then. Definitely not below 6'1" today.

Rob and Kane stand too slouchy to estimate the height properly. But from this picture I got the 5" height difference. So Kane is 6'1", maybe 6'1.25". Unless Kane holds Rob in the air. :)

Maybe when he says "basically 6'5", 255, born in Crystal Lake" he's referring to his character Jason. Kane Hodder doesn't seem tooo egotistical, and he's certainly nowhere near those stats.

Was never 6'4". Entertainment Tonight did a spot on Kane Hodder in the late 80's (1989 I think) and they claimed that he was 6'3" and 215 pounds. The link USED to be on this site about 6 years ago. Looks to be in the 6'1" range today. He's definitely lost height (his neck is shorter for starters).

6ft1 out of bed isn't a fair evaluation, in my opinion.
Chances are he still measures over that mark at any point in the day, but certainly not by 4cm.
187cm today and a solid 6ft2 peak maybe pushing 6ft2.5(189cm)?

He had on thick boots & still only had me by 3" tops around 2pm & I'm 5'9.5" & had on 1" heel boots. His boots were at minimum .5" thicker than mine. He was much thinner than I expected since he looked so thick in Jason 7-X. He wasnt overly friendly but still joked around a bit.

I don't know if I'd go that far in describing him. He's decently big. Not 6'5" 255, but at 6'2.5" and 235 or what ever he is, still a pretty big man.

6"2 at the VERY most today. 187cm is a safer bet in my opinion. But the 80s he was most likely closer 6"3. The claimed weight of 255lbs is like his 6"5 claim, interlinked with his ego.

He looks 6"1.5(187cm) maybe 6"1.75 tops now... closer to 6"3 back in the day. I doubt he was ever 6"5(196cm) even in boots...probably 6"3.5-6"4 tops. The reasons he claimed such an outlandish figure is most likely to do with his ego...
Honestly though...he seems like a complete douch with his hands around Rob

A LOT of people on here cant tell height, or refuse to accept that most people in hollywood as well as sports stars are upgraded by 1-2 inches on average. Its quite sad really. You would think a height forum would attract a larger percentage who are usually correct like me, but alas that is not so for some reason. There are plenty of sane individuals evicwho agree with me as I also post good evidence a lot of the time with my claims.
ACG, maybe once you are sane enough to actually get out of you mental ward and into the real world, you will see the light and not be so hillariously awful in your estimates. I just saw you think Tom Cruise is 5'9, LOL. High comedy.

Kane WAS 6'2"-6'3" about 20+ years ago.. I saw him on Entertainment Tonight in the late 80's (1988-1989) and they said he was 6'3" and 215 pounds... Looked to be physically heavier than 215 at that time. Looked to be at least 240-250 pounds... As for his height today, I'd say he's about 6'1"... (age and the beating he has put his body through in the last 30+ years as a stuntman)...

LOL, only an upgrader like RisingForce would think I downgrade. How delusional of him.
1st off, get your user names right. Yet it really makes no difference- just about everybody here knows you almost always downgrade; no real secret at all.
2ndly, it's obvious that you're choosing some obscure actor's page to "upgrade" on just so you can't be accused of downgrading 100% of the time(now we're down to what, 99%? 98.5?).
3rdly, please just GTFO. You contribute absolutely nothing to this site, aside from borderline comedy when you flip out and call people insane if they see you as wrong(which would then make just about all of celebheights one big loony bin).

for some reason kane has always had an inflated opinion of his height, it wouldnt surprise me if he wore lifts actually, id say hes about 6' ish flat, 6'1-2 peak, NO more, im yet to see definitive proof that hes over that, never looked that tall to me, and also, no need to quote his height as jason etc, who knows what lifts and boots he was wearing. im 6'.5 flat midday height, and i bet i am as tall as him, as i am easily this height in boots beside my 5'8 friends

It could be the camera angle yea because Ken and CJ look the tallest. CJ does look a few inches taller than Kane but the angle is really in his favor though. Ted White is 6'4 and Richard Brooker is 6'3 but Brooker looks taller. White probably lost height of the angle favors Brooker. Brooker does look 6'3 compared to 6'5-6'5 Kerzinger though. Thats the best comparison you can see on there. Also Steve Dash looks 5'10-5'11.

I think hodder is 6ft maybe 5ft 11, hes always wearing those huge boots!!!! I saw a video about when they first wanted to cast him in the part the executives at paramount thought he was to small to play the part but the director convinced them. So i think if they thought he was to small then he wasnt close to 6ft 3, cj graham and richard brooker were both 6ft 3 and looked big. Bigger than Kane in my opinion

I agree totally, Alex. Ken did look too skinny for Jason. Besides, I like that fact that even though Jason isn't the biggest guy he can toss someone as big as Ken around like a rag doll. I think 6'1-6'3 1/2 is perfect for Jason.

Personally I think Ken was a bit too tall for Jason. Jason is suppose to be a tall man but not very tall.He's made more to be big/bulky rather than just very tall. Ken wasn't a thin guy but he wasn't as massive as Kane was. I think the Jason character should be 6'2-6'3 barefoot and 240-250lbs.

Kane has never struck me as a particularly tall guy (certainly not short but not 6'4 or 6'3). His build makes him look much bigger than he is but the clip everyone is talking about (Kane vs. Kirzinger) should lay all of this to rest. There is NO WAY Kane was ever 6'3 or 6'4; he looks a good 2-4 inches shorter than Kirzinger in tennis shoes. Moreover, I have never seen a publicity picture of Kane without those huge boots and I'd be very surprised (and interested) if anyone has any pics with Kane sans boots. The fact that he wears them to all the conventions should also be suspect. Frankly, though, he was the best Jason in my opinion and he always seemed the biggest both in height and build because of his approach to the character.
In regard to his weight, he looked his biggest in Jason Goes to Hell. Granted, he was in a huge bodysuit but I would say he was a solid 240-250 lbs.

In Jason Goes to Hell the cornerer described Jason as 230-240lbs. I can easily believe that for Hodder. He may have been up to 260lbs. I wouldn't have doubted that.

Alex, I'd say Dash looked like a 5ft11-6ft guys tops! In the above pic with Rob, Hodder looks 6 inches or so taller and that's with his boots! If Rob is 5ft9ish in that pic that means Hodder is only standing in the 6ft3 range with his near 2" heels. I think it's time for a downgrade, or at least a peak and current height!

Ed, yea. 6'2-6'2 1/2 peak and 6'1 1/2 today as you said when you met him a few years ago sounds accurate. 6'2 barefoot with big boots he's roughly 6'4 unless the boots are giving him more than 2 inches to his barefoot height.
CJ Graham is a legit 6'3 guy. I thought he looked 6'6 in Part 6. Ted White was a legit 6'4 and Richard Brooker was 6'3 too. So Kane was only taller than Steve Dash in part 2 who thought looked 5'11 at most. What do you think Dash was?

Alex here's a link to the Kirzinger/Hodder clip: Click Here
It does look like Kirzinger has a good 2 or more inches on Hodder easy! If that's the case Kirzinger would have been 6ft6 or so in his tennis shoes, putting Hodder at between 6ft3-6ft4 in his Jason boots. The guy has to be 6f1-6ft2 tops barefoot! There's no way he could be taller, and be still be that outsized by a 6ft5 guy! Not to mention Kirzinger was a friggin beast back then, he easily outsized Hodder both in height and build!

There's no way he could be taller, and be still be that outsized by a 6ft5 guy! Not to mention Kirzinger was a friggin beast back then, he easily outsized Hodder both in height and build!

Yeah in Part 7-8 he did look tall, especially 7! As a kid I always thought he looked huge when he was walking around in the woods, he looked like he was 6ft6 or taller! When I met him it was like 3 years ago I think, and yes he had the boots on, the same ones that both Rob and Glenn saw(I believe?). They looked to have about 2 inches in heel, and they were almost like moon boots in terms of the sole, it wasn't like a regular heel. Like I've said before on average I'm around 6ft0.5 in my shoes, and he seemed to be only a few inches taller. I didn't get the impression of a 6ft4 guy!

Ed, I paused it at the part where Jason grabs him but Jason is leaning a bit so it looks at least 3 inches but probably a bit less if straight up against each other.
Remember the scene where Jason is in the hallway where Kelly Hu sees him and it looks like his head is within a few inches of touching the ceiling. He def looked very tall there.
When did you meet Kane again? And you said he had big boots on when you met him correct?

I'd agree with 6ft 2 or maybe a hair over back in the 80's, but today I'd guess 6ft1.5. Yeah with those boots he could have been 6ft4 or more, but to claim that as your height is a little much. If I remember correctly Ken had casual, black, loafer type shoes on in that scene from Part 8, so I'm guessing at 6ft5-6ft5.5 with those on he was 6ft6-6ft6.5 to Kane's 6ft4.

I can see 6'5 or close to it in his big boots but even in them he looked 2-3 inches shorter than Ken in Part 8 who could be wearing big footwear for all we know. Who know today Kane may be as low as 6'1 1/2 but 6'2-6'2.5 back then though.

For that reason Alex it makes his 6ft5 claim even more ridiculous! I still think the guy is only 6ft1.5-6ft2, maybe a bit more in his youth, and with his monster Jason boots around 6ft3.5-6ft4.

I was watching some of Jason Takes Manhattan today and Jason does give a solid 6'2 impression, plus boots making him at least 2 inches taller. But face to face with 6'5-6'5 1/2 Ken he looked to be 3 inches shorter. So Kane may have never been more than 6'2 1/2 at his peak.

King, I'd say 6'3 based on his Jason movies but could be as low as 6'2 today. I mean he did look at least 6'5 in whatever footwear he had on in those movies. But with Rob he doesn't look more than 6'1 max.

Ed, I almost never boosted my height up. When I was 5'11 1/2 I would sometimes just round up to 6'0 and a couple years ago I thought I hit 6'1 barefoot so I said that for a bit until I measured and found out I didn't grow anymore.
I just tell people 6'0 even though I average out barefoot at 6'0 1/4.
I could be anywhere from 6'1 to as high as 6'2 depending on the type of shoes and time of the day. Like right out of bed with Nike Shox I am 6'2-6'2.25 or in the evening with other sneakers I am just 6'1. Normally most of the day 6'1.25ish in sneakers.

The reason I asked is because the other day I lost a solid inch, and to be honest was kind of shocked! I don't normally check my height, so this was a spur of the moment thing, and I was just under the 5ft11 mark at around 6 pm. I did spend a lot of time on my feet that day, but still I wasn't expecting it.
For the most part I'm around 5ft11.75 out of bed, and 5ft11.25 sometimes less at night. It was really weird to see myself under the 5ft11 mark though, that threw me for a loop!

Ed, most of the time I lose 3/4 inch going from 6'0.75 right out of bed to 6'0 by the evening. I have lost an inch at times and I think even up to 1.25 inches and thats pretty rare for me though. Because on a very good day I could hit 6'1 right out of bed and on long hard days I could hit as low as 5'11.75 by the night. What about you?

Alex, yeah he's definitely getting 2 inches from those, they are pretty much platform heels!LOL
It's funny I remember watching Part 7 when I was a kid, and in the scenes with Jason walking around in the woods, he looked even bigger to me, like 6ft7 or so. That all changed by Part 8 though, once he went toe-to-toe with Chef Kirzinger, Hodder didn't seem so big to me anymore.

Alex Kane does look 6ft4-5 in that video! Did you see the size of those heels when he walks up the stairs?!!LOL They're huge!
As for his build he does look pretty broad, I'd say 230-240lbs... maybe more... I don't know?
As for Mears, he looked pretty lean but built in The Hills Have Eyes II.

Ed, look at this video from youtube of Jason Voorhees on a talk show. I am pretty sure this is Kane Hodder in the costume. Well he does look 6'5ish in boots in the video. I am guessing he was probably about 6'3 barefoot here and got a good 2 inches from the boots and today has shrunk a little. Also he does look a good 245-255lbs.

Well the new Jason will be 6ft5, and in boots 6ft6 plus! I saw The Hills Have Eyes II and Mears didn't look 6ft5 to me in the film, more 6ft3, but I could be wrong. Still he's definitely going to be one of the leanest Jasons on record, but also up there as one of the tallest.
I'm looking forward to see how it all turns out!

Ed, I do believe that the actor who plays Jason should be minimum 6'2 barefoot. That is because if you're 6'2 barefoot and in boots from the movie you'll be 6'4ish and be taller than most you come by and everyone in the movie. With a Jason under 6'2 you wont really get that.

I don't know if you guys have heard the latest, but Hodder is not coming back for the new Friday remake beginning filming in the next few months. Instead they've got a new stunt/actor named Derek Mears from the Hills have Eyes II remake. He's apparently 6ft5 and on the leaner side, more like a muscled Richard Brooker. The guy looks the part for sure, and imo doesn't need any makeup to be scary looking.

I think If I had to pick a best, I would go with part 1. I feel like it has the best suspense and acting overall. The opening scene is so classic. I was shocked that Jason wasnt the killer when I first saw it. But I like how you get some of the backround of Jason in it. And these characters had never heard of Jason before and there was no history of brutal murders at this camp. So these people were really in for huge surprise compared to the sequels where they knew something had happened there before. Part 2 is also very good. Similar to part 1 plus you have Jason as the killer. The campfire scene where they talk about Jason is classic. Jason in it.

Alex, what's your fav. Friday the 13th part? Personally, I think part II had the most atmosphere to me. Jason still seemed kind of human and breakable to me. He lived in a shed and was young and still small and not that strong when he fought with the guy at the end. He got hurt and he grunted a lot and he RAN back then. The end of part IV was also really cool with a young Corey Feldman, when he went psychotic and shaved his head and butchered Jason, screaming DIE over and over again. I also liked part 5 and 6 a lot too.

Hodder looks 6-5 anyway in some of them. Might as well go with a 6-5 guy. Though, it has to be better than part 10 because the franchise hit rock bottom with the Jason in space stuff. I can kinda suspend reality a little with Jason getting on a boat going up to New York, or moving out of bodies because he isnt human anymore. But Jason in Space, man thats hard to buy, lol.

No way is he only 6'0" Alex. Remember this man is a stunt man and has been for YEARS. He has put his body through more of a beating than most pro wrestlers. I believe he was ONCE 6'3" (in the 1980's), when he was younger and less injuries. I don't see him at under 6'1"-6'2" today.

Looking back at the picture, Kane does look like he would be 6'2 with Glenn if he straightned up a bit and was equal to the camera with Glenn.
Now looking at him with Rob, dare I say this but he 6'0-6'0.5. I am a solid 6'0 and 5'8 guys come a little less up to me than Rob comes up to Kane. I can see over a 5'8 guys head almost.

Alex, Dick Warlock who is listed on this very site at 5ft9, played Myers in part 2. He wore big lifts to be closer to 6ft, and that's why he walked ultra slow and tipsy. Warlock talks and jokes all about it on the documentary I mentioned.
6ft8, 6ft10, or whatever Mane really is, was exceptionally tall for Myers. You guys who haven't seen the film need to check it out though. I'm curious to hear what everyone thinks!
As for the new Friday film, what are all your thoughts on that, and who could possibly play Jason? I've mentioned it before that Andrew Bryniarski is rumored to don the hockey mask! He'd be 3 inches taller than Hodder and quite a bit bigger. Jason would be a tank if they went with him, lol!

Ed, I can understand Myers gaining weight throughout the years. But a growth spurt to 6-8? lol I still havnt seen Zombie's halloween and I dont think I want to. Though I can kinda buy Jason getting taller because he seems more like a monster than human. Danimal It seemed like Jason was more human up till part 4. Then after that he became a non-human beast.

Ed, Myers in part 2 was 5'9? He didn't look that short at all.
I could be wrong but he did look over 6'0 in parts 1 and 2.

Yeah, Myers never came across as being overly large to me. In part 4, or was it 5, when he escaped from the hospital, he lifted that orderly off his feet and crushed his skull, so he WAS taller and larger from part 4 onwards. Part 1 and 2 were an average size man who was just insane. Kind of like Jason from FRiday the 13th part 2 (with exception to his deformed head).

Alex, you're kidding right? Nick Castle was maybe 6ft, more like 5ft11 and around 160-170lbs. Dick Warlock who played Myers in part 2, was 5ft9 and probably around 170lbs as well, he also wore lifts to reach near 6ft that's why he wobbled through the whole movie. He talks about it on the Halloween documentary 25 Years of Terror.
George Wilbur who played Myers in part 4 was the first genuine over 6ft actor. He was 6ft2 and probabaly 215-220lbs. The stunt men from there on out who played Myers stayed in this similar physique range, 6ft2 200-220lbs.

I thought Myers looked closer to 6-0.

Myers was still no small man at all in parts 1-2. He looked 6'2 and at least 200-205lbs.

I think Ken did a good job as Jason. He was a solid 6'5 guy but weighed 225lbs. Could have weighed more but some profile had that for him. wasn't a small guy but he wasn't too bulky either.

Myers wasn't built really big until George Wilbur took over in part 4! From then on the stuntmen cast all had similar height(6ft2)and build, until Zombie's Halloween! LOL!
As for Brooker, he always looked lean to me, maybe he was 220lbs?
So Viper if you expect Jason to have progressed to a 6ft5 beast, Bryniarski would fit the role perfect!

I expect Jason to be a 6-5-6-6 280 pound monster these days with the way he has progressed in all of the sequels.

In Jason Goes to Hell, Jason looked 250-260lbs easy I thought.

Jason and Myers are both built big. Myers was more leaner but still big too.
Richard Brooker I thought was 225-230lbs actually. He was bigger than 215lbs. If he was 5'11-6'0 I would believe 215lbs though but not at 6'3.
Jason, you'd make a good Jason Voorhees. My friend who is 6'5 and he weighs 215lbs but is bulky too. I've told him before he could be a good Jason.
