Nash was clearly close to 6'10 peak, there´s loads of pics that put him at easly 6'9 range, one of them is with 6'7 1/2 measured oliver miller:

Besides Nash raised his head in that mugshot.. gives him the illusion of looking taller.

Kevin Nash was measured at 6'10 in basketball, but apparently they rounded up by 2 or 3 inches, took his height in shoes and rounded up.... Kareem is 7'1 and Shaq looks about 2 inches shorter than him. if Kareem was really 7'2 barefoot, they would make him 7'3 or 7'4 because he is close enough to that height people would believe it.

I seen were it shows shaq's barefoot height is 7'1 but does not give his height in shoes very odd.

Nash is not under 6'9 in 2013.

Nash was never over 6'7".

Weak 6ft9in like 2m05, the difference of him at Kareem is big, maybe 5 inches.

Drummer777 are you actually for real? Shaq has been frequently measured 7'1", another troll.

Nash didn't have several inches on Rodman.. maybe 2 inches on him.... Rodman was diagnosed what 6'7 or 6'8 by the NBA so even if nash was 6'10 like the NBA states Nash would still only be a few or a couple inches taller than Rodman.

Nash is 6'8 Rodman about 6'6 or 6'7 Hogan is within a half inch of 6'4 Troy aikman.

@Russian
First of all I have never met or known anyone on this site. There are a few that I wouldn't mind meeting someday, but as of now I have't. It seems there are very few on here that have met. Rob is probably the only one who has gone out and met other people here. There may be others, but none that I know of. And since most people are too smart to include an email or other contact information on a public website we would have no other way to even arrange a meeting without others knowing. And just for the record, I've been a little perplexed about the sudden attention given to my estimates since no one gave them any consideration until just recently.

Second, if you look at pictures of Urbank on the net he looks as tall as he (Urbank) claims next to Ronnie Coleman and others. Definitely not the 6'8" or 6'9" you're guessing.
Meathedz said on 10/Apr/13
@Angry Russian

In other words you are saying that Vince Urbank is really 6’9”, but downplays his height because he wants to be known only for his strength, not for how tall he is? Suuuure....

You’re only saying that in order to claim that most people are good as estimating height.

Most people tend to estimate too high, including you.

Remember your own eyes are NOT on top of your head. They are at least 3” lower, even when you are tilting your head back in order to look up. You look at the top of a guys head, and you think he is 6” taller than you, even if he is only 3”.

According to YOUR own REASONING, then if Ali Baba has seen guys like Kevin Nash, and Matt Morgan up close, then HE too should be good at estimating height to within an inch, ESPECIALLY if he is closer in height to them than anyone else posting here.

By the way, I DO NOT know Ali Baba, I just agree with what he has to say, as it is CONSISTENT with my own observation, and knowledge of how the wrestling industry, and most other forms of media tend to exaggerate height, and pretty much everything else they can get away with.
Ali Baba said on 10/Apr/13
Vegas, after a search on Photobucket for Kingma, Big Show (to include his real name) and Morgan I can't find your pics. Can you please post a link or let us know your user name on Photobucket?
Angry Russian said on 9/Apr/13
@Meathedz Please quit trying to downgrade everyone so much. Most people are not that bad at getting someones height right in person, within one inch most people can eyeball no problem. You insecure height downgraders will resort to anything. I'm into the sport of strongman, and powerlifting, and yes Pro Wrestling too. I'm in Florida and I have met a whole bunch of all of the above. Vince Urbank as well, he lives in Jacksonville.

I'm about 6'3" myself, and close enough to see when someone is really tall. I asked Vince how tall he was and he tried feeding me that "about 6'6 line", and I immediately called BS on him.

When I told him he has to be taller than that because I’m 6’3”, he said “well I’d rather be known for how strong I am. All the really big strongmen all everyone mentions is how big they are”. So THERE is your REASON he would downplay his own stature, and why everyone “overestimates” him. Anyone who has met him in person knows he is way over 6’6”. My guess is 6’8” or 6’9”.

Speaking of way over 6’6”, Kevin Nash. I had to look UP at him too. Now would only a 3” or 4” height difference be that much I’d have to look up at him? REALLY? Hey, all the 5’8” and 5’9” guys here, do you have to look up at someone who is only 6’0”? I honestly doubt it. I’d put Nash at about 6’9” EXACTLY AS ROB HAS HIM HERE. What Rob says goes. Now you and your friend Ali Baba (clearly you must know him since you agree with him so much) please stop spreading rubbish.

Nash is 6’9”, maybe was 6’10” in his Prime.

kingmas head size didn't change my perception, you are talking to a guy who has stood next to and talked to acromegalic paul wight half a dozen times and was within a few feet of dalip singh (btw this isn't counting the numerous times i have seen them wrestle in person), matt blooms (albert/atrain/tensai) head is probably bigger in person

Good luck Vegas haha, there are a few on here no matter what proof you have it will never change their mind.
JT said on 9/Apr/13
6’7” (???) next to 7’6” Click Here Impossible. Gonzalez would have close to a full head size on Nash if the latter was only 6'7". That’s essentially how 6’10” Hakeem Olajuwon measured up to Yao Ming, who’s around Gonzalez’s height and maybe a tad shorter. Click Here

Nash had several inches on Dennis Rodman and probably Oliver Miller as well, who measured 6’7.5” barefoot. Nash may have lost a little height over the years but was at least 6’9” peak height.

Meathedz said on 8/Apr/13
Being even 3” shorter than someone can be enough to throw off perception. Keep in mind our own eyes are around 4” lower than the top of our heads. When I hear an anecdotal account of someone with more than a 3” difference all I question the estimate.

Here is an example: Vince Urbank, holder of the American Raw Deadlift record. In the sport of Powerlifting he would be a celebrity. He’s also unusually tall for a Powerlifter, being that tall height is a disadvantage in Powerlifting.

Guys who met Urbank tend to WAY overestimate him, things like 6’8” and 6’11”. These are anecdotal in person estimates.

This forum even has one guy who sees him on a semi-regular basis, and another one of these guys themselves claimed to be 6’3”, and said Vince had 6” on him.
Click Here

When asked about his height in an interview Urbank states it at as “between 6’5” and 6’6”. Is he downplaying his height? Why would he do that?

OR is it that people over-estimate very tall men OFTEN?

I’m a lot more likely to believe the anecdotal accounts of a guy like Ali Baba who is 6’6” AND has PHOTOS to prove it, and photos of himself with celebrities like Lou Ferrigno, who only looked 6’2”! Rob Terry only looked 6’3”!, and Nash looked the SAME next to Ferrigno as Ali Baba did.

In fact Ali Baba looked almost as tall as Matt Morgan does next to Rob Terry too, and Morgan wears obvious boot lifts.

I believe Morgan is more like 6’6” and Nash is nothing over 6’7” himself.

Pro-Wrestlers will exaggerate anything, as much as they can possibly get you to believe. People already over-estimate tall men. That is WHY I am conservative in estimating any of them.

But Baba said that the 6'7"-6'8" guy next to him was taller than Morgan(and Morgan had thicker footwear). How can Morgan be only 1 inch shorter than Kingma when Morgan is not even 6'7".

@jimmy Exactly, and Joe M. looks more 6'3" or so to me, I'm going by the pictures of him with Rob and Jenny, and Rob's testimony that Joe M had on thicker footwear.

2" is a common exaggeration for men, plenty list their "in shoes" height, and Hollywood is all about illusions anyway.

That also supports everything Ali Baba has said too about Pro-Wrestlers. I am seeing a pattern that taller pro-wrestlers tend to be a lot shorter than they claim. How much do they exaggerate? As much as they can, at every opportunity. In some cases by 4" or more.

I wouldn't say that Joe is just flat 6'3"(If he is only that tall every 6'4" listed actor must be downgraded at 6'2"),but he is definitely more 6'4" than 6'5".Rob knows that for sure,because he saw him in person,but he lists him as 6'5" because he doesn't want to upset Joe's fans(especially ladies).And Baba may be exaggeratting a bit with Nash 6'6" flat.

Wedlum is a Lou Ferrigno type of 6'4".Lou was listed 6'5" and was actually 6'3".

This is a pic of mma fighter Fabricio Werdum who is a legit 6'4", and Nash. Nash is leaning, it looks like he would easily be 5+ inches taller if he was standing straight.

5+? I would say 4" max and it's obvious that is guy isn't 6'4".That must be his height on shoes.
First off, Nash's head is leaning down. If his head was up he would be even taller. It's not obvious he isn't 6'4" either. That is his barefoot measurement, they don't fight with shoes on.

@Meathedz You spoke the truth bro!!! At last.But I wouldn't go as low as 6'8" for Big Show because he is a guy who can't stand as tall as he neasures(because of his weight)and has a very long forehead.

I don't see Kevin Durand as a full 6'6" guy more like 1.97.And we can't see Kurrgan's footwear here.And he is 2 ft closer to the camera.I think that Kurrgan must be around 6'8".I would like to see s pic between Nash an Lebron.I have a suspision that Bron will egded Nash.

Meathedz said on 28/Mar/13
What Ali Baba is saying is VERY consistent with what I have heard from other TALL men too. I put Nash at around 6’7” PRIME, and possibly around 6’6” these days.

Most Bigger Pro Wrestlers are exaggerated by 3 or 4 inches. In same cases even MORE. The entire business is a WORK.

It makes complete sense that Pro Wrestling, a business that is 100% entertainment, with its roots in Carnivals would be an offshoot of Carny Culture. That means exaggerating EVERYTHING as much as humanly possible to get a away with.

Truth is many of the people we look up to are exaggerated. This does not matter much to most people, as an average height man cannot tell the difference if he is talking to a 6’6” or 6’9” man. Taller looks tall.

The problem comes in when a TRULY tall man like Ali Baba meets the guys he used to look up to, and finds they are not any bigger than himself, and in some cases shorter. He ends up disappointed.

As humans we have an Innate desire for our heroes to be extraordinary. Why do you think the Ancient statues of heroes like the Farnese Hercules is 10ft+ tall?

This is ALSO the reason some of us are emotionally attached to believing these guys really are as big as they claim. We WANT our heroes to be larger than life. That does not make it factual however.

Noah Steere, from North Carolina who is the tallest Bodybuilder ever to compete in the NPC is 6’6”. Most people that meet him think he is MUCH taller due to tall height being unusual for his hobby. That is because a lot of normal height people over estimate tall men.

I've MET Noah at the Arnold Classic Expo in Ohio. He had some interest in becoming a Pro Wrestler, for a very short period of time back in 2000, and has MET the BigShow. Says he’s a nice guy too. You can go ahead and call up Noah’s supplement store, or if your in the area visit. He’s in Fayettville, North Carolina. He has no reason to lie, and just ASK him. He will tell you that BigShow was at MOST 6’8” when he met him back in 2000.

So what does THAT say about Nash then, being he is an inch or two shorter than BigShow? It says around 6’6” to 6'7" as well.

Ali Baba who is 6'6" even, has seen Nash up close and in person, same with Matt Morgan, and said they seemed the exact same height as him.

I leave the possibility open that Nash might be as much as 6’7”, as the benefit of the doubt when Ali Met him, as sometimes a person can seem an inch taller or shorter depending on posture.

Bad example. Kurrgan looks 4" taller than Kevin Durland if he stood straight. And he didn't look shorter in the picture where you said Kevin Nash was an inch taller. Nash and Kurrgan are both 6'9" in my opinion.
Drummer777 said on 22/Mar/13
WCW did have Nash at 7'1, 7'0 and Big Show referred to Kevin as a 6'11 goof. Basketball has Kevin at 6'10, but next to 6'8 Tyler Mane, Kevin looks 6'8.
RoelC said on 21/Mar/13
Nash was about 1 inch taller than Kurrgan.
Click Here

In the movie Monster Brawl, Kurrgan was playing the Frankenstein monster and they always get their height boosted and Kurrgan was no exception.
If Kurrgan is this tall next to Nash Click Here that means Nash is not much taller than John Tenta.

I have seeen that movie and speciel features, Maillet(Kurrgan) was taller, even Nash said he was Taller. Most people say he is between 6'10 and 7'0. Plus Reol only showed the pic that JT has and you can see Nash is by far closer to the camera. Nearly every other pic or scene in the movie shows Kurrgan having an inch on Nash. Plus in their stare down Nash had Giant army boots on.

I' beginning to think that Nash was tops a "big" 6'9". With most of the shots he's been in, he has looked around 6'8" and some change but he hasn't looked a solid 6'10" in anything I've seen. I'd give Kevin a shade over 6'9".

I always thought Kurrgan was a legit 6'10. i'm sure he's in the extras of 300 and Sherlock Holmes and his height is mentioned.

2 inches taller than undertaker at wrestlemania 1996

2 inches shorter than big show at sold out 1998

6'9.5 (207cm) peak
6'9 (206cm) today

I wonder if he was 6'10 in his prime? He could look that if big show was really 7ft?
The Ben said on 24/Jan/13
I've said it before on here, I met Nash in 94 and he was huge, I would have said 6'10.
I was outside a hotel in 03 (Insurrection PPV at newcastle) and Nash got off the bus, He was in pain and couldn't stand straight but he looked to have a lost a little height, It could have been my perception though.

I know between 94 and 03 Nash's weight went up quite a bit, I'm guessing due to the drug testing becoming less strict.

Perhaps the extra weight nash carried on his upper body caused him to lose a small amount of height.
I think once again Rob has it bang on here with 6'9.

Kevin Nash was 6 ft 10 in his prime!So today aged 53 6 ft 9 seems accurate. I read somwhere that wrestler Matt Morgen is a legit 6 ft 8 and 3 quarters.
Peyman said on 4/Jan/13
I'm not that much familiar with older superstars but this would be the top 10 superstars IMO
1 _ Under Taker
2 _ Steve austin
3 _ Hogan
4 _ HHH
5 _ shawn michaels
6 _ Bret heart
7 _ Rock
8 _ Ric Flair
9 _ Folley
10 _ Kurt angle
I'd never forget Goldberg , not in the top 10 though
Peyman said on 4/Jan/13
@ Red ,
thanks for feeding back
Scott hall is over 50 years old , & maybe 6'4'' flat these days . I accept he's out of shape nowadays . I mean he was good in (1985_2005)
e.g . Wrestle mania 18 with austin
I meant that scott hall of course
Under Taker is surely the god of wrestling.
Drummer777 said on 4/Jan/13
Andre The Giant was taller than Tyler Mane, Mane and Kevin Nash are the same height so Andre would definitely be taller than Kevin Nash.
Peyman said on 2/Jan/13
I'd go with
6ft 9in for Kevin nash
6ft 4.75 for scott hall (legimate 195 guy )
both peak heights of course
if I were a wrestler & could choose a height/weight for myself I'd certainly choose scott hall's
any estimate for scott's real weight at peak , Rob? everyone?

its clearly stated there godsey was 6061 which is how they measure players during the combine and pro days, nfl measure in 8ths of an inch so godsey measured 6'6.125 barefoot, here terrell mcclain is measured barefoot at 6016 so 6'1.75 Click Here he was listed 6'3 in college Click Here


i have seen 6'8 descriptions for godsey during his football days do a search for godsey on this Click Here one look at godsey next to burt reynolds, bob sapp, steve austin, terry crews, bill fichtner will tell you thats a least a 6'6 man

6'9" we all know this. Something that came to mind though. On Raws 1,000 episode, I noticed DDP and Sid were standing together. It didn't look like there was a shoe advantage to anyone but it did look like DDP was just 2" shorter than Sid.

Robby said on 15/Aug/12
Ali Baba no offense taken. you're entitled to your opinion and your height estimations. we all are. that's what makes this site awesome! Thanks for the offer. never been to Texas. my reasoning for thinking Nash is 6'9" is because of that picture with Oliver Miller who was measured barefoot at 6'7.5". NBA had Miller listed at 6'9" throughout his career. probably his height with shoes on. Nash looked to have 1.5" on Miller. let the debates rage on.

As I've said before I was about 10 feet from Nash
_______________

well based on your previous statements e.g you said on 13/Jan/12 "Nash and I were eye to eye", which would suggest much closer than 10 feet away

a 5'10 person should come to around the bottom lip of a 6'6 person (assuming the person has a normal sized head of course)
Ali Baba said on 14/Aug/12
Vegas, he's almost 3" shorter than Mane claims to be. Mane's chin should still be above the head of someone who is only 1.25" taller than Rob. I have a child who's 5'10 barefoot, which is a half of an inch taller than Robby, so I'm pretty familiar with what 5'10" looks like next to 6'6". I'm done with the discussion for now. I believe Mane is 6'6" (just going off of pictures), as well as Matt Morgan (from personal experience). As I've said before I was about 10 feet from Nash, so I'm willing to admit there might be a little fudge factor in my estimate and that he might be a little above 6'6", but he's coser to 6'6" than the 6'9" estimated here. I've been a fan of Nash's since I first saw him wrestle, so I was a bit shocked when I saw him in person and realized how far off of his claim he actually was. And as Robby said, and I metioned in my very first post on the subject, Nash is huge. Not Rob Terry muscular, but very big.

Robby, very cool pics. Just to let you know I'm not hating on you in any way. If you ever make it down to this ridiculously hot state of Texas, you can hang out with me anytime. Comic Con is coming to Austin in October and I'm considering going. Never been to one. Lou Ferrigno is scheduled to be there, and I think it would be pretty cool to meet him.

guy in height challenge 15 is 2.75" shorter than you believe Mane is. Editor Rob is only .75" shorter than you. Rob is below the guy's chin in the picture.
_______

rob already posted this shot, he should not have been below that chaps chin Click Here also the fact that there is an unusually short distance between that guys eyeline and top of his head (barely 4 inches) throws lots of things off, when i estimated him 197.7cm during the challenge i was assuming he had the normal 4.5 inches between his eyeline and top of his head
Ali Baba said on 13/Aug/12
Correction: Rob is only 1.25" shorter than you, not .75 as I posted.
Ali Baba said on 13/Aug/12
Two problems with the pictures, Robby.

1. You are mirroring their stances, which minimizes any slouching they did. You slouched the same way they did for the pictures. It's a natural reaction for a lot of people when taking pictures.

2. The bottom of a 6'8" guy's chin would at least be at the top of your head. The guy in height challenge 15 is 2.75" shorter than you believe Mane is. Editor Rob is only .75" shorter than you. Rob is below the guy's chin in the picture. Given the fact that you pretty much countered their loss in height with your own slouching, there is no way Mane is 6'8". Nash may be a tad taller, but not much.

(There ya go. Blast away)

Unfortunately there are no appearances at the Comic Con here in October by these two. What did Nash charge for a picture BTW?

_______________


Dude, he wasn't being serious about Jesse's height. Obviously Jesse is/was above 5'11".


As for the Sid mugshot; I would guess he is ~6'6" without shoes. I can't believe that that picture was taken with shoes. I don't see how Sid could have possibly shrunk by more than 1" or so. His only serious injury was his ankle breaking in half. As sick as that injury looked, I fail to see how it would have caused him to shrink. Like most other big men, Sid had a very slow paced, low risk style; so any notion that he shrunk more due to the physical abuse of pro wrestling is false. I still say he was ~6'7" in his prime and about 6'6" now. Nash always looked at least 2" taller than him anyways.

Ali Baba said on 31/Jul/12
And, as I've said before the camera angle on Nash's mugshot is horrible. The camera is way below the level it needs to be to get an accurate measurement, and the closer you are to the camera when down that low skews the perspective even more. Although Sid's picture is much better it's still a little below even with the top of his head, which is where the camera needs to be to get an accurate measurement.
logan noll 1996 said on 31/Jul/12
6'10 peak, 6'9 now.

Nice to see you're back. I thought you had dropped off the earth. Actually you can see Nash's crotch (there goes my preoccupation again, dagnabbit). You can see the seam just below the bottom of his shirt. And yes I've seen those pictures before. In some pics he towers over whatshisface and in others they look within a couple of inches. It all depends on camera angle and if I had't run into Nash in person I would probably believe 6'9" for him.

Ali, since you're preoccupied with crotches, Nash's shirt covers up his so we don't know what level it's at. I scaled the pics based on the top of the heads and the location of the Adam's apple and assumed that was the same distance. So I should have made the distance greater in your friend's case just to make you come out taller? It's all really pointless anyway, since we don't know your friend's true height or even yours (leaving aside what footwear you two may have on).

Your 6'6" estimate for Nash is one of the worst I've seen on this site. Click Here So what is Scott Hall then, 6'1"? Both are in flip flops btw.

Rob has this guy at 6'5" and he looks it. Click Here Both he and Nash are in dress shoes.
Ali Baba said on 29/Jul/12
Since JT appears to have disappeared and he put so much work into this photo merge, I figured I would post it in his stead.
Click Here

It actually strengthens my case instead of the opposite, which is what JT was going for. If you look at the picture you can see that it was done with a biased opinion of what the outcome should look like, so he scaled the pictures to reach that end.

There are two points in these pictures that can be used to scale the pictures properly; the top of Mamun and Rick's heads (Mamun is 2.25 inches taller than Rick), and Nash and my crotch (my crotch should at highest be even with Nash's).

I've done it myself but don't have access to it right now. If someone thinks I'm wrong try it out and see what you get.

0:48 Nash is a good 3" over Hall who is 6'7" which would make Nash 6'10"

Here's a pic of Nash standing by a doorway, doors tend to be 6'6" high, clearly he needs to duck under the door frame.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Doors are normally 6'8" or 6'9"

That picture has a horrible perspective to judge Nash's height compared to that door.

I went to a WCW event in 1997 in Boston, where I encountered
several members of the NWO up close both at ringside and backstage

Kevin Nash is or was near 6ft10 (easily the tallest person there)
Scott Hall - 6ft5 (stood right infront of me, ringside. I'm 6ft3 and he stood no more than 2in taller)
X-Pac - 5ft11 (surprisingly shorter than I thought. Saw him backstage)
Randy Savage - 6ft1ish (was 2in taller than X-Pac)
Scott Steiner is a hard guy to pin down. He was talking with one
of the Nitro Girls about twenty feet away from us. Probably not
over 6ft

Ali Baba said on 13/Feb/12
@Red, actually your understanding of how the camera angle affects this particular picture is exactly opposite of reality. Manum's head is slightly behind Nash's head in this pose and probably pretty even with his left shoudler. The camera angle will have pretty much no difference on the percieved difference between Manum's height and that of Nash's shoulder. However, since Nash's head is slightly forward of Manum's, the angle will make the height diffence between their heads look slightly more than it actually is. If the camera were above head level it would have the effect you described. Since the camera is lower than both of their heads it makes the more forward object (Nash's head) seem taller. In any case the difference is minimal at best. And looking at the camera does not equate "slouching".

@Fail, let's just go with "nice try, but, no"
Red said on 13/Feb/12
Ali Baba says on 10/Feb/12
Compare this pic with the pic of Nash and Manum, who is 2.25" taller than Rick.

Nice idea, but the angles aren´t the same. In Mamuns pic the angle is way lower and that shrinks the height difference. Nash also slouches more than you in your pic.

Taking all that into consideration, Nash doesn´t look under 6´9" for sure

Ok, I know there will be the naysayers here, but I will post this anyways. This is me and my friend Rick, who is 5'6". He knows his actual height and does not feel the need to exaggerate it. He's secure in his shortness. He was also there when I ran into Nash in Austin, TX in November 2010. He agreed that Nash was the same height as me. Nash and I actually have very similar body makeup, except I am lazy and don't work out (and have never done roids). In this picture I am a little over 240 pounds.

And then you come up with excuses such as "so and so is 2 centimeters closer to the camera so they look two feet taller than they actually are" or "so and so wears tall shoes so they look 8 inches taller than they really are". So it really doesn't matter what proof you are given. You will see and believe what you want. Unless Trips is wearing hooker heels in the video I posted its not going to give him more than a half inch of "footwear advantage" over Nash. Men's heeled shoes are not much taller than a men's non-heeled shoe. I believe the backstage heights more than any kayfabe that happens in the ring.

now this chap was measured 6'7.5 barefoot (listed 6'9 by the nba ) so could you and bruce explain why nash looks taller than him if he is 6'6??? i assume miller would be at least 6'8.5 in footwear and nash looks a good 1.5 inches taller so ~6'10 in footwear Click Here

btw bruce is not correct, nash was not 6.5 inches shorter than kareem, more like 5 inches shorter, nash looked taller next to kareem than ~6'7 magic johnson did and a little bit shorter compared to how ~6'10 hakeem olajuwon measured up

If Mamun and Nash were to trade positions in there photo,most people would see there is under a foot differance in height. Mamun is above Nash's left shoulder. If you were to place a 1 foot ruler on Kevin's shoulder it would go to the top of his head. I realized Nash was only about 6'7" when 7'1 1/2" Kareem's nose was over Nash's head in a video on you-tube.Even if Mamun was the same height as Nash's shoulder 6'8' tops,but he's not. Put Mamun on this side of Nash. Bad photo to judge by.6'8" Larry Bird was taller side by side w/ Kareem. SORRY Hey 6'7"is tall!!

How tall do you guys think Hall is?

It's bizzare that it's widely accepted that certain wrestlers lie about their size, but others would not be expected to. In order to keep the illusion of their size intact they would pretty much all have to lie by around the same amount, otherwise it would quickly become obvious which wrestlers were way off. compare the pictures of Nash and Manum to the picture of Rob and the guy in challenge 15 and tell me where the other 4 inches is that Nash supposedly has on that guy.

And, yes, I'm very aware that people come in different shapes and sizes. I've been living in the little man's world my entire life.

Also notice how tall 5'11" Michaels is next to Nash.
Rikashiku said on 17/Jan/12
If you want me to read a statement you made who knows when, then you could help by giving the Date to find.

Ali Baba, in that first pic, HHH is CLOSER to the Camera than Nash is. The pic posted by Jackie Knife is much more accurate. Keep in mind that Nash is also wearing Sole-less shoes.

Yes, SOME Athletes do lie, but the don't lie by 6 WHOLE inches dude lmfao and some don't lie at all, especially major sports like Basketball. So I guess in your logic, the tallest guy in NFL is really 6'6" and not 6'9" and the tallest men in Rugby Union are only 6'7" and not 6'10".

I guess in your logic, the entire population of sports fans are under 5'5".

You do realize that HHH has a habit of wearing heeled shoes right? If you think that video is a good example of height then you're clearly deranged because that would mean that HHH is 6'4" because look how much taller he is than 5'11" Shawn Michaels. So HHH in his HEELED shoes makes him around 6'4" then that would further prove that Nash is 6'9".

I really hope you're trolling.

Also Ali, people come in different shapes and sizes.

Ali Baba said on 16/Jan/12
Jackie, that picture is not a true representation or their heights. I prefer to use this picture Click Here along with this video Click Here

Vegas, I don't have any pictures of me with the two I referenced. I'm not the kind of guy that asks people if I can get a picture with them. I know the truth, along with the people that were there with me. Everyone was underwhelmed by the height of both wrestlers. Not saying they aren't big, because they are in great shape. But they're not as tall or as heavy as they claim.

Rikashiku, see my previous statement about athletes lying about their height, meaning Reggie Johnson is not 6'9"
Rikashiku said on 16/Jan/12
Great pic Jackie Knife(a pun?). Nash is even wearing sole-less dress shoes. I can't tell if HHH is wearing similar shoes or soled shoes.

In your pic it looks like he might be 7 inches taller than HHH.

@Vegas, Reggie Johnson, the man next to Nash is 6'9". If thats true then Nash is easily a weak 6'10".

Generally speaking the wrestlers fudge on their heights by 3 to 4 inches. Some are even worse offenders. The problem is that you can't gauge someone's true height by comparing them in a picture with someone else who lies about how tall they are. I can tell you, as a tall man, that taller guys like to add inches for some reason. I have run into plenty of guys who claim to by 6'6" and I have to tell them they're not, because I'm 6'6" and I'm looking at the top of their head. I played against a "Professional Show" basketball team and the tallest player they had was billed at 6'7". He was actually about 6'4". I have run into other professional players who were supposed to be taller than me, yet I was taller then them. And, as I've said before, I have met both HHH and Kevin Nash. Neither of thise guys are as tall as they claim. HHH is closer to 6'1" than he is to 6'2", and Nash and I were eye to eye. However, some people refuse to believe what others write on here and would rather make guesses from pictures on the heights of people they've never met. I can tell you from experience that the picture of Nash and Manum is what a 5'8" person looks like standing with me.
____________

then post photos of yourself with nash and hhh, if nash is 6'6 like you say then that would have a massive knock on effect on every wrestler, nba star and hollywood celeb, he must have been standing on a box when arrested last year because the 6'6 mark is only at his eyes Click Here

Sorry, bud.

On a side note, I like when people say "wow, you're really tall! How tall are you?" I tell them six six and they reply, "Oh, that's not that tall." Really? Because it's very rare that I run into someone taller than me, so I kinda think it is.
Rikashiku said on 13/Jan/12
logan... how the hell would a 40+ year old man grow taller in the past few years? Men his size and age will start shrinking by the time they're over 40, some athletes lose height by their mid 30's.

I'm a big fan too, but I've always noticed that some of the wrestlers aren't the heights that they are listed under. Like Christian billed at 6'2", then I noticed he's shorter than Cena who was billed at 6'1" or how HHH billed at 6'4" only looks less than an inch taller than Cena, or how Kane is 3-4" shorter than Big Show but still looks taller than Taker.

6 foot 9 or 6 foot 8 sounds right. Nash was an inch or two shorter than 6 foot 10 Undertaker.
Rikashiku said on 26/Dec/11
I thought he said 7'1"? Well whatever, Hogan likes to stretch the truth.

Well like I said, just over 81 inches, I wanted to say nearly 82 inches but I was sure where that was on the chart. Your pic helps clear it up though. Bu we can't see his footwear so we don't know how much of a lift he has. If its half an inch then he's atleast 6'9.25" barefoot, but if its more then he's 6'8.75"- 6'8.5" and peaked at over 6'9".
Rikashiku said on 25/Dec/11
Hogan says a lot of ****e alright, I guess thats why his wife ditched him for someone more 1987 :p.

Nash def looks just slightly more than 81 inches but not over 82. 6'10-6'10.5" is realistic for a peak, especially for a man his size and age. Sometimes when he's in the ring with other personalities he can look 6'8" next to the likes of 6'1.75"-6'2" HHH and 6'3.5" Johnny "Ace" Laurinaitis.


I also found pics of 6'4" DDP, 6'9" Karl Malone, 6'7" Dennis Rodman and Hogan looking just about 6'5", maybe 6'4.5" next to Rodman.
Supermanfan380 said on 24/Dec/11
Hulk Hogan said lots of things. Based on that Mug Shot and Kevin's age, if he is just over 6'9" now, then a solid 6'10" peak is very realistic.

This picture says he's just over 81 inches(6'9")

Supermanfan380 said on 16/Dec/11
One reason some people may estimate Nash shorter than 6'10" for a peak height is because of his posture. He tends to lean his head forward, bringing his chin down to the line with his shoulders. Possibly a result of often having to look down at everyone. So if he is standing next to a 6'8" man might look eye to eye, but if Nash straightens out his neck and puts himself fully upright, he easily gains a couple inches. Most of the time he stands like this:

Straightened his neck is longer and he is taller:

Supermanfan380 said on 12/Dec/11
Height can seem to vary a lot by posture, camera distance etc... So when we play 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon to guess someone's actual height, we are assuming a lot. That any of the subjects are accurate/inaccurate and then weather the estimate was in a situation where posture or camera distance has a big effect, and it certainly can. Then there is the fact that a lot of these guys are putting a LOT less thought into it than people posting here. No super tall guy puts much thought into what shoes he will wear today due to his height, and most of them don’t even bother to state the last half inch like a shorter guy. Tall guy will just say “six foot six” even if he is technically 6’6.5”, while a short man is SURE to say the 5’8 – “AND A HALF” they always emphasize. I have no issue believing that Nash was 6'10" peak height in his prime, and has lost an inch due to posture, age, and lots of knee injuries is not a big stretch. Trying to get a perfect height estimate is impossible. If it were possible to say for sure, to within a 0.5" we would not still be here talking about it. Really the only exaggerations that bug me enough to mention is when a guy is grossly overstated. Such as a 5'10' Actor claiming to be 6'2" or something like that, because you will be disappointed when you meet them. If a Wrestler is 1" shorter than he claims nobody will be disappointed when meeting him anyway.
drummer777 said on 3/Dec/11
I've seen that shot with Charles Barkley showing him at 6'8 from one angle and 6'7 from another angle or front profile shot. so the height chart thing depends on camera angle in some instances.

Nash does come out 6'10 in that height chart, it could be for publicity, When looking at matches with Tyler and Kevin, they come out even in height.

Why would Tyler claim to be 6'8 instead of 6'10. Scott Hall is slightly shorter than 6'4 DDP, saw a pic of DDP with 6'4 Troy Aikman side by side and they come out even in height, while hulk and Scott hall are slightly shorter than both men.

I don't believe that picture of Nash to shoe his true height, yes nash is a celebrity and its possible they were having a little fun. :)

Dan Spivey is listed as 6'6 in football, he looks 6'5 next to 6'5 bill Fralic, Hard to tell sometimes with Spivey and Sid, sometimes Sid looks slightly taller and sometimes they look the same height. don't see a real big difference in height.

I was a joking about the box thing but Vince really did it with Andre which I think was stupid and misleading. Nash still could be on his tippy toes.

well thats 2010 pause at 6secs Click Here

Thanks a lot for posting this! Throughout the whole vid we can see that Nash has about 4.5 on Hall, who is about 6'5" (or slightly below). I think we make a big mistake by putting Nash at Tylor Mane´s selfclaimed 6'8" mark and downgrade wrestlers like Undertaker and Sid just because they are obviously shorter than Nash. IMO Nash is a bit taller than Mane (0.5' to 1') and Mane himself is looking taller than 6'8" to me (6'8.5" sounds reasonable). So I put Nash at 6'9.25 (btw. that´s exactly what robby concludes from another argument), Undertaker at 6'7.5 and Sid at 6'7.

If that height chart is not manipulated or Nash is standing on a box, it puts Nash at 6'10 in his shoes, So Tyler and Kevin 6'10 in shoes and around 6'8 and a half a piece barefoot. although Nash could be tippy toeing. he is quite the jokester prankster.

It's good when someone like Mane tells it how it is. His 6'8 admission made people realise that Nash is no higher in reality.

In that line up with 6'10 Dirk, Garnett does look taller. yeah I read that article, I was thinking of Chris Bosh not Garnett mixed them up in my last post. Garnett is listed 6'11 in the pre-draft barefoot. They still were gonna list him taller than his actuall height. and Chris bosh is listed at 6'11. But like I said if Dirk turns out to be 6'9 1/2 or so that means Garnett's height will go down to 6'10 and some change. Shaq said he is 7 foot still could be 6'11 and some change.

peak i dunno, we have to rememeber first time we saw nash on tv he wasn't at his peak as he had undergone multiple knee operations by 1990 so he might have been taller in the 80s but next to tyler mane in 1993 i can't see him over 6'9, even 6'9 is very generous if mane is 6'8 flat

when i started here everyone (including me) assumed nash and mane were same height as both gave their height as 6'10, later we found out mane had gone from saying he was 6'10 to 6'8, i have watched numerous videos of those two and i can't see more than half an inch it it back then between those two

Yao Ming - 7' 5
Smush Parker- 6 ft 2 1/2
Lenny Cooke- 6' 5 1/4

Dirk is only 6'10 NBA does inflate guys heights same as in Wrestling.

Hogan was never 6'8 barefoot, hes pretty much 6'3 1/2 to 6'4, John studd was 6'5 or 6'6, but he never was 6'10. Players in the NBA are adding there shoe height and in a lot of cases and then some lol.

Magic Johnson Is listed 6'8 and 6'9, heard he was really 6'7 and some change so how tall do you think Magic is. Yeah I know Shaq is listed 7'1 barefoot, I really think he is 6'11 barefoot, in the pic Garnett looked about an inch and a half taller to 2 inches than Amare. So have to put Amare at 6'7 and some change.

Chris Bosh is Listed 6'11, so taller than his actual height.

Amare is listed 6'10, Garnett is listed 6'11, Amare barefoot around 6'8 Garnett 6'9 . I knew a basketball coach he said all the guys are most of the time shorter than there listed heights.

A player told me he was 6'10 when asked without shoes he told me 6'8, he was really tall for all I know he could be 6'7 1/2 barefoot and rounded up.

Since Tyler Mane is 6'8 I have to put Kevin Nash at 6'8, although listed 6'10 in basketball... Click Here shaq is looking really short next to Yao right here
Alex said on 12/Nov/11
I thought Nash could be as low as 6'8-6'8 1/2 today but with HHH he looks 8 inches taller. Also most here would agree that HHH is 6'1.5-6'2 range. I do think Nash was a legit 6'10 peak and today maybe just 6'9

They both tower over the Big Show.
Big Show is not but very close to 7 feet barefoot.
Nash is well below them. 6.8. barefoot. With shoes, maybe 6.10. In WWE boots maybe 6.9+

I met a guy at subway, who played basketball said he was 6'10 asked him, and without shoes he said 6'8. Amare looks 6'8 Next to Shaq and Lopez listed 7'0 in basketball couldn't just get a half an inch from his shoes.

My Guess is Robin Lopez is 6'10 1/2 to 6'11 barefoot and 7'0 feet in shoes, Shaq doesn't have a full inch on him. slightly taller.

Somebody on Wilt's page said he heard Shaq admitt he was only 6'10 on Howard Stern.

Falsone says Yao was 7' 5" tall without shoes on (7' 6 1/2" with shoes) in October of 2002, but that by September of 2004, he had grown to 7' 5 3/4" in height barefoot, and to 7' 7 1/4" in height with shoes on.

Andre was refered to as 7'4 or 7'5 by Gorilla monsoon Click Here So this is what Andre should have looked like Next to Wilt even if wilt was a full 7'1.

Andre 7'4 or 7'5 barefoot according to monsoon, and around 7'6 to 7'7 in his boots.

Looks like carrot top had a big brother, I saw the official listing for shaq barefoot, don't trust the listing, If that guy truley is 6'11 1/2 barefoot Shaq looks 6'11 1/2. Shaq has his head raised trying to make himself appear taller, sid does that as well.
_________

his head is no more raised than anyone elses and that wouldn't make you taller anyway, look at shoulder levels, shaq is clearly taller man there, shaqs roughly 4-4.5 inches taller than amare there in that photo to his left who was measured 6'10 in basketball shoes (and that measurement came straight from the nba so no arguments), even with poor enough posture shaqs still looks 4 inches taller than amare Click Here before you go downgrading amare thats him next to ~6'1 david letterman skip to end Click Here

anyway if shaq is 6'11 then garnett can't be more than 6'9 Click Here

Shaq, BigShow, Khali....these men's heights are very difficult to estimate because on different occasions you get different measures.
On a TV episode, when asked about Khali's height, he said that he is 7 feet. At that time he did not say about 7.2 or 3 as WWE lists him.

I think Shaq and Khali are both 7.0-0.5 barefoot, with shoes it may depend.
BigShow is an inch or inch and a half or two below them.

Nash is 6.8 which is decent for him. I have a friend who is 6.8 exact and mine is 5.9.

6.8 height is very tall in person. While speaking to my friend, I need to stand atleast 3 feet to have a comfortable conversation or my neck keeps paining later.

Guys please do not underestimate 6.8 height.

shaqs a measured 7'1 barefoot, the man to shaq left was measured 6'8.5 barefoot and 6'10 in bb shoes, the man to his right with the huge hair, 6'11.5 barefoot and shaq is taller than him by a good inch Click Here

Kevin Nash was listed 6'10 in basketball, Tyler Mane was billed 6'10 in wrestling both men are really 6'7 to 6'8, 6'9 is still and exaggeration for Nash... well the camera angle there is what does that Tyler is much taller than Rob or Rob is wearing boots. Lebron James is the same Height as Tyler Mane and Kevin Nash 6'7 to 6'8 for these guys. you can't put Tyler Mane at 7'0 when Kevin Nash was listed as only 6'10 in B-ball,

Shaqs stats with shoes on may read 7'1 barefoot, more like 6'11 barefoot and Bigshow in the 6'10 area, Andre the Giant had the type of Acromegally that kept making his bones get bigger but not taller, him Big show would of made a great tag team. Also think drinking had a part in Andre's heart giving out.

Yeah, I've seen that interview and he looks kinda short there next to Rob Zombie who they claim is only 5'10". In Halloween movies he towers over everyone, even guys that claim 6'5" like Foree and the bouncer he choke slams. A barefoot 6'8" and probably an inch plus in boots. Looks like 7 footer in X-men and I don't believe they gave him 4" lifts. I have lifts of all sizes plus Kane style wrestling boots. I'm 5'6" barefoot (hate admitting that) but in my best boot/lift combo I can reach 5'9.5". Comfort is definitely out the window in those, blistered every toe when I entered a battle royal in them.

Hey Iceman73 Tyler Mane gives himself 6'8 as well, check it out Click Here via the Michael Myers interview

6'9.5" peak seems about right. I'd love to walk around for a day or two in this guy's body. It would be great. You can just see the fear in the eyes of citizens as you walk through the streets as a man beast LOL. I'd probably get fed up with bumping my head on door frames though and sitting in airplanes. A legit 6'9" and built like a brick house is extremely rare.."

Lol, you'd love to walk around in a 52-year-old ex-wrestler's body? I doubt it would be as pleasant as you think.
Icehole73 said on 25/Oct/11
I didn't realize how much taller Tyler Mane was than Derek Mears. 3.5 to 4 inches. I always gave Mane 6'8" to 6'9" min. Nash Is at least 6'9". Would love to see Nash, Nathan Jones, Matt Morgen, Kane, Andrew Jackson and Eli Cottonwood together. Won't happen but its fun to dream!!!

big show was no giant gimmick in wcw,he has a giant disorder,he is a real giant,his wrestling boots in wcw had about a 2 and a half inch sole,so he was 7 foot 1 at that young age

_______________

wight stood 7'3.5 in his wrestling boots in wcw... that would make him nearly 10 inches taller than john tenta in his flat boots in this clip 2min mark onward Click Here

Nash with like 7 inches over the 6'2'' HHH there...........

By the pic I provided, Kevin does not look over 6.8-6.9.
Big Show is no Giant Gimmick...He is true Giant. Even though he has lost height.. he comes close to Khali.
and who has checked his boots physicaly? Without proof it is pointless to say these things about his boots!
