Towers over everyone else! I wouldnt hav had him in my movie if im Christian Bale and i claim to be 6'2" :) it'll shatter my claim!

Liam is one of hollywood's tallest actors. He regularly bumped his head against the ceiling of the submarine set during filming K-19 and the sets of Star Wars had to be added an extra 15 cm (originally they were built 180 cm for Ewan McGregor) to reach Liam's height. 193 cm is correct.
Sorry for not using feet and inches, I'm European, not so keen in english metric system.

dmeyer said on 28/Dec/07
he is only 55 years old he didnt look a full 6'4 in person more like 190 possibly 191 cm ,at that age he should have lost 0.5 max 0.75 in ,

JayDee de Escocia said on 15/Sep/07
Yeah - met him in Dublin 3 years ago - this looks about right. He had pretty flat shoes on as well.
b-nn said on 13/Sep/07
I believe Liam is 6'4 ! He's extremely tall in movies like Star Wars and Batman Begins...! Towering figure!!!

plus if you guys saw schindlers list, there was a scene where hes walking with a large group of people, adn he towers over all of them! not sure if they put him in lifts so he would be more easily seen, But I was amazed at how tall he looked there.
cantstop25 said on 7/Sep/07
I must say if this guy claimed he was 6'5" id believe him, his posture is bad in his pictures with glenn if hed straighten up hed look a lot taller
dmeyer said on 20/Aug/07

clint eastwood isnt 6'4 mate,hes 6'1 now.besides,dont doubt the mans own woeds.
deustch said on 31/Jul/07
he was taller than 6ft4 Clint Eastwood in dead pool, and considerably. I would have to list him around 6ft5-6ft6
anonymous said on 20/Jun/07
he was looking pretty 6`4ish in suspect. he genuinely looks like a 6`4 tall man.
Tanya Cagnina said on 7/Jun/07
He did look pretty tall in Les Miserables as well!
RobertJ said on 30/May/07
Hey Glenn, did Reeve look taller or Neeson because there both listed the 6'4''? Or was it pretty much the same?
Jack said on 16/May/07
Glenn is way closer to the camera OutBenchThis!
OutBenchThis said on 28/Apr/07
In the bottom pic (with Glenn in casual shoes) he looks like a genuine 6'3.5" guy..not a full 6'4" or or 6'5"

I wish I could see somebody as famous as Liam at Arbys. :(
Anonymous said on 26/Apr/07
Saw him at my local Arby's. He's 6-4.

I saw Gangs of New York the other day and I gotta say, he still looked 6'4 in that. He is never standing tall in real life, but in the opening seen he has good posture and he is clearly the biggest guy on the street. I think he still may be a true 6'4 if he stood tall and straight. BTW, he had the hands of a gorilla in that movie. Look when he grabs the kids face when he dies. Sausage fingers
Matt Thomas said on 12/Apr/07
Link your comments are kinda stupid 6'4'' not that tall?... Im 6'3'' and id consider 6'3'' and up to be tall even some 6'2s can pull off looking tall. I also dont get why your trying to brag about your familys height my dads 6'4'' his brother is 6'5'' and theyre dad is 6'11'' Now i could say your familys not very tall but im not
patrick said on 14/Mar/07
Once more, i agree AAAA: a huge dude and visibly tall; When did you see someone who towered him or if only, was taller than him in a movie?
Only very tall men give that "impression"; It is possible that along with time, he slightly shri=unk but i would favour he is always slouching; He does that by nature and as so many very tall men, just to be at median people height.
A small or average man try often to stretch himself, to never loose if only a cm from his height; a tall man does often, not always (J. Wayne, just leaning his head; C. Heston, very proudly standing), the contrary;
In addition, a very tall man has often back bones problems as he goes along life. Look Clint Eastwood!
And Viper put him at 6'-3 1/2 which is enough to me to think he is 7 foot tall ! That's a joke Viper; Don't take it personaly (confess it's funny, no?)
Viper said on 1/Mar/07
Neeson could be bang on 6-3 1/2
dmeyer said on 28/Feb/07
you were right with good posture he did look easy 4 in on me s 6'3.5 with good posture
dmeyer said on 27/Feb/07
he does have awful posture in person i met him today he seemed 3.5 inches taller than me maybe 4 but that steel only 6'3 could be 6'3 to 6'3.5 and looks only 190 cm with bad posture he loked wick 6'3er today i doubt a full 6'4 xander bercley and famke were both 182 cm and he barely looked 3 to 3.5 inches on them closer to 6'3ish but he has awful posture but i doubt over 191 nowadays

Editor Rob
shoulders/neck kind of hunched forward?
glenn said on 17/Feb/07
shannon looked 6-3 to me.cant remember the pavement.
Jordan said on 17/Feb/07
Speaking of curb elevation Glenn, in the Shannon Sharpe Pic, did Shannon have a higher elevation then you did? Because he appears 6'3.5 when i know he is 6'2.So was Sharpe on a curb or something??
Glenn said on 16/Feb/07
Either he is 6-5,which is possible,but I dont think,or the pavement is to his advantage.in the bottom pic Im wearing casuals.top,Timbs.not the classic look Timbs.thanks G unit.5-9.5 in my shoes.
G-unit said on 16/Feb/07
I don't know why, but glenn has always given me the impression of being taller than 5'8 on every picture he's in
Ed said on 16/Feb/07
Glenn it's safe to assume than that you are anywhere between 5ft9-5ft9.5 in your casual boots? If that's the case from the top of your head to the top of Neeson's hunched over head he's at the 6ft4plus mark, and he's not even standing up straight. Is it possible Neeson is 6ft5, and taller in shoes, because he looks it?
Jordan said on 16/Feb/07
So yes I agree a def. 6'4
Glenn said on 16/Feb/07
Every 4 months I have a different casual or boots on.the footwear doesnt make a difference on someone that tall.8 inches would make him 6-4.correct.
Ed said on 15/Feb/07
Glenn in the first pic he's standing behind you a bit, it's dark and hard to make out clearly. Yeah Neeson looks tall, but in the newer brighter,clearer photo you can see that he's standing right next to you, not even standing up straight and he still has you by 8 inches. How about the shoes you were wearing?
AAAA said on 15/Feb/07
Glenn,
He is right next to you, as opposed to however far behind in the first one. Plus both your shoulders are much clearer in visibility, in the first one the lines are barley visible
Jordan said on 15/Feb/07
What is different to me is that in the new pic Neeson is leaning and towers Glenn but in the old pic he looks as if he is standing straight but doesnt tower glenn as much. I honesly would peg this guy at 6'4, the reason I asked Glenn is becasue he meet him in person.
Glenn said on 15/Feb/07
Of course he is 6-4.what is so different this time? instead of the first pic?
Ed said on 15/Feb/07
Neeson looks an easy 8 inches taller than Glenn, and he's slouching. Glenn, I can't remember if you said before, but what kind of shoes do you usually wear, and how tall are you in them? I second Jordan's question, because he looks if he stood up perfectly straight he'd be 6ft6 next to you.
Jordan said on 15/Feb/07
Wow he really is a giant. Glenn would you say he looked 6'4?
Anthony said on 15/Feb/07
Liam Neeson is an easy 6'4.
AAAA said on 15/Feb/07
He has gotta be at least 6'4. He is slouching obviously and his eyes are still above glenns head. HUGE dude
Korben said on 15/Feb/07
Hes gotta be 6'4, looks huge in batman begins next to bale sometimes
Viper said on 20/Jan/07
Ric Ocasek shorter than Liam and only 6-3? Ric looks 6-4 bare minimum and could be 6-5.
TERRAEVIR said on 19/Jan/07
Liam Neeson is definitely 6'4". He lives in my hometown in New York State and I've seen him up close at a local store. I've also seen Ric Ocasek at the same store and he appears to be about 6'3"
john said on 9/Oct/06
I met Lou Ferrigno at the Chicago comic con and I hate to say it but he acted like a dick. Even though we payed him his $20 he was still unfriendly.It wasn't just me either, other people were complaining as well.
Jordan said on 28/Jun/06
D. Ray Morton
I think you and I both agree that Brandon Routh( new Superman) will not even be half of what Reeve as superman was, is, forever.
Glenn said on 28/Jun/06
He is known to be a dick.its not about catching him on a bad day.its about catching him on a good day.
Glenn said on 28/Jun/06
He has an attitude and charges ridiculous prices for everything.
D. Ray Morton said on 28/Jun/06
Jordan - I've heard several times now from fans that he's not the nicest person, especially for someone with the good fortune he's enjoyed recently. A friend of mine worked on SR and said the same. I was a little surprised, as he's come off as an okay chap in interviews - humble and whatnot. Maybe he really is a good guy in private - I have no idea. I do know firsthand that Reeve was princely.

As for Ferrigno, I'm actually shocked at the comments here. I always thought Lou'd be a cool guy. Just goes to show. How was he a dick, Glenn?
Jordan said on 28/Jun/06
Glenn
I heard somewhere that Lou charges 60$ for a pic even when he not at a charity event. When you say the old hulk was a dick what kind of impression did he leave on you.
Glenn said on 27/Jun/06
Yeah,the old Hulk is a major dick.
supes78 said on 27/Jun/06
I met Ferrigno, so has the Rob actually, and I can honestly say the guy was super nice. He posed for a ton of pics with his fans and I even had a 5 minute conversation with him. Your friend probably caught Lou on a bad day.

Editor Rob
maybe if he's doing paid events he's nicer...money is a great motivator. I would agree at that event, he did seem friendly with the folk who he was talking to, including me, but then...out of these type of things the story might be different...
Glenn said on 27/Jun/06
When Cream played here last year,Bruce was the only one signing and posing.
Glenn said on 25/Jun/06
Madonna is #1.honerable mentions go out to Mel Gibson,Jaouqin pheonix,all of RUSH,all of CHICAGO,Bruce Willis,Russel Crowe(nice all of a sudden),Robert Redford,Eric Clapton,Elton John etc.nicest-Tom Cruise,Dustin Hoffman,George Clooney,Christopher Reeve,Christian Slater.
Jordan said on 23/Jun/06
liam towers over Ewan Mcgregor who is 5'10 or so by at least 5 inches. Liam is a passible 6'4, no shorter then 6'3
MOF said on 12/May/06
Morgan Freeman isn't quite 6'3, DiCaprio is just about 5'11 and Bale is 6'0...
jake said on 10/May/06
Definitely 6ft 4. He is taller than 6ft 3 Morgan freeman and towers over 6 ft or 6ft 1 Leonardo dicaprio and also 6ft 1 Christian Bale.
Jason said on 27/Mar/06
Yeah, Liam is no 6'2''. I would say he's about 6'3 1/2'', too. He just doesn't appear it with Glenn because Glenn is closer to the camera. But the guy is real tall like people say.
Ed said on 25/Mar/06
He always seems to slouch in the majority of photos taken of him. I think he just has poor posture, or maybe he feels the need to come down a little in stature when he's surrounded by shorter co stars. I agree with Rob that he's probably 6ft3.5, 6ft4 plus in his younger days. I think he's a legitmately tall guy. No tricks , like so many actors. There's no way he's just 6ft2 though. Every film he's been in from Darkman, to Michael Collins, The Phantom Menace, Next of Kin, Rob Roy, Excalibur,Batman Begins, Kingdom of Heaven, you name it, he's always way taller than everyone else, by a considerable margin. Also that photo of Glenn and Liam doesn't really put a good perspective on his height since Glenn is so close to the picture taker. They aren't standing shoulder to shoulder at all. That's pretty cool though Glenn got to meet him, he's one of my favorite actors, and I'd definitely get a kick out of meeting him. One last comment, last time I checked 6ft4 is a pretty above average height, I don't know why one would say that's not even tall. If 5ft9 to 5ft10 is the national average, a 6 to 7 inch diffeence is pretty big. 6ft2 for that matter is pretty tall, if you are talking averages. Also people shrink with age that's a fact. Our cartilage diminshes and that along with osteoporosis, causes most people to lose about an inch, sometimes more.
Cycklops said on 24/Mar/06
It was a joke, Glenn. Every human being takes strange-pictures. You have a funny-look on your face. It's not a comment on your quality as a person. Geez.
sf said on 24/Mar/06
Actually - I think Neeson looks more like HE's on meth!
Cycklops said on 23/Mar/06
That might be my favorite pic on this site. Neeson looks like a wax skeleton.
Link said on 20/Mar/06
Actually, I measured myself again, i now know why people say "no way you look 6-6'1 ish, i appear to have grown a tad to 6' 1/4", lucky me, i still stand by my 6'4 mark for neeson
Brett said on 1/Mar/06
another interesting pic, he really doesnt look 6'4" there at all
6' & 18 said on 25/Feb/06
Yes agreed, a fair height. Spot on.
Frank P said on 2/Feb/06
You know what's funny about Neeson? He's one of those actors I used to think was actually TALLER than his listing. I picture of him Rob Roy, Darkman, The Big Man, and that Steve Guttenberg comedy where Liam plays a ghost in love Bev D'Angelo, and he towers over the cast in each one. I used to think 6"6 for him. BUT,in Mutiny on the Bounty, which I just re-watched last month, he appeared to be more 6"4 next to his co-stars.
Viper652 said on 18/Jan/06
Neeson is 6-3.5 at the very least, how tall was Conan in relation to him??
Brett said on 17/Jan/06
Rob do you think Conan is not a real 6'4" if he suggested that Neeson is 6'5"? or that perhaps Neeson rounds down alittle?

Editor Rob
considering Neeson'ss wife is 5ft 7 range, I think he is 193, maybe pushing 194 in 30's]
Ed said on 3/Jan/06
One of my absolute favorite actors, and I gotta say he has to be at least 6ft4 in his earlier days, but I think 6ft3 to 6ft3 1/2 is more accurate these days. He is in his 50's so I think it is safe to say he shrunk a bit. I just watched Rob Roy recently and he looks pretty huge in that film. He is a lanky guy which adds to the appearance of height, but he dwarfed Tim Roth and the 5ft7 listed Brian Cox. That was 10 years ago now.
kennethz said on 19/Nov/05
in k19 ford stand near neeson looks like his only 5"11.5 tall about 181cm.. as neeson 193cm tall..
CelebHeights Editor said on 5/Oct/05
He did say on Conan, "I’m Six Four and a wee bit" but Conan was leading him with "You must be 6 foot 5"
mcfan said on 29/Aug/05
If Daniel Day-Lewis is 6'1.5 then Neeson can't be 6'3.5. There was a bigger variation between the two actors height than just two inches. I think he's no less than 6'4...no more than 6'4.25.
sam said on 17/Aug/05
I saw him on stage in The Crucible and got the impression that he was no less than 6'4" tall. He dwarfed Laura Linney, who was also in the play.
McFan said on 20/Jul/05
Tim Roth said Neeson is 6'5 because he laughed when saying it on Letterman because apparently the real Rob Roy was 5'6.
Walter said on 28/May/05
I saw him in the Clint Eastwood Film circa 1989, "The Dead Pool". He looked like he had an inch over Eastwood, who was about 6'3" at the time (now he is closer to 6'1"). I would guess he is about 6'4" tall, since Eastwood has shrunk lot over the years.
cantstop25 said on 10/May/05
he looks like a really tall guy. i have never met him but I believe he was above 6'4" at his peak and minimum 6'4" now.
Anonymous said on 5/Apr/05
Met him a few years ago...I'm 5'10" and was wearing heels and he was much taller than me. Also, my friend who was with me is 6'1" and Neeson was at least 2 inches taller than him, probably closer to 3. I'd say 6'4", but I'd also say he stoops a lot.
eyowell said on 2/Feb/05
In a Harrison Ford's picture in front of a somewhat bent Liam Neeson, I think there's a difference greater than 5 inches. Liam is taller than 6-4, or Harrison is smaller than 6-0,5
