judging from pics with Taker and Nash, I would say Sid was 6'7" at his peak and is 6'6" or so right now. losing height over time definitely happens.when I was 10 I measured my dad's height when he was 42. he was 6'3.5" and right now at the age of 59 he is 6'2"

Sid indeed looked 6'7'' at his peak but with no recent photos or screen pics of any kind, plus the way most tall wrestlers seem to drop 1'' or so in their late 40's(i.e, Kevin Nash) 6'6''- 6'6.5'' nowadays is surely a better assumption.

Think about this, what if UT was barefoot in the WM13 picture? I think he'd be the exact same height or maybe just slightly shorter than Sid if he was still in shoes. If Sid was barefoot, I think UT would have just a slight edge, no more than .5" Doesn't think make sense if Sid's boots are so flat like everyone is making them out to be?

Yep, if the camera angles on the photos in MikeV10's post were level - then Undertaker is actually even taller than Sid, easily 1 - 1.5 inches. Mind you, Undertaker's boots look a bit thicker than Sids.

Yeah guys look at this link again from about 5:53 to the end Click Here UT has a full inch on Sid and his eyes are at level with him. He must have been wearing bigger shoes this night but no way are they the exact same height there. If UT didn't have the bigger shoes I think their height may very well be the same.

I posted this on the other page, maybe someone here can see it. The pic anonymous posted from 1991 Click Here is the closet to Sid and UT standing straight together but UT actually has his head back a little there. Can someone photo shop their staredowns so now one is titling their head up? It may answer a lot of questions.
To me, UT looks taller in this pic Click Here
If anyone could find this I would greatly appreciate it cuz I'm just curious. I remember shortly after Survivor Series 96, when Sid won the belt, he was in the ring during an interview with HBK and I think McMahon. He said something like, "I need a real challenge" and UT came out. They had a staredown and Sid looked taller. I remember I was crushed cuz it meant UT wasn't 6'10" lol but this was years ago, I may have been looking at the eyeline. Does anyone remember this raw or know how to find it?? I remember them being on flat ground and no one was titling their head up. It was either late 96 or very early 97

KingNick, i'd say 6'7.5'' for taker as stated on this site, tho looks to have lost a half inch since WM13 when he did seem to have '0.5'' on Sid, hence my 6'7'' prediction for Sid. Never met either of them mind you, but after watching for the past 18 years or so thats the way it looks to me;)

Hulk Hogan when he faced sid in 1990 was standing very erect compared to the picture red posted. He is bending while sid is standing very erect making the height amplified, I think peak Hogan was probably 1.5 inches shorter than sid

If you look at the pics of Manum with Sid and Nash,they are about the same height. At the most, Nash might be an inch taller. Nash is put at 6'9. No way then can Sid be at 6'6.5. Gunnar is right, 6'8 peak Sid, in so far as Nash is 6'9-6'10.

Alex 2- Hogan's first surgery was in April or May of 1990. He was 6'6" and lost 1 1/4", bringing him down to 6'4 3/4". In 1992, Sid had roughly 2 inches on him, so Sid was 6'7" back then. I believe Hogan's next surgery was in 1998 where he lost 3/4", bringing him down to a flat 6'4". Scott Hall was a bit taller than him at this point. I'm not sure if Hogan had another surgery after that, but he barely looked 6'3" with Shawn Michaels 3 years ago.

First of all, Hogan was NO longer 6'6" in 1992. HE was struggling with a full 6'5" at that point and by 47 years old, people don't have to have lost at least 1" of height (speaking of Sid now). Peak Sid - 6'7".... Peak Hogan - 6'6"

Necrosa's right, he dosent look more than 10-11 inches taller in the photo which makes him 6ft7 max. Since hes now 47 he must have dropped at least an inch since WMVIII when he bearly had 2'' on Hogan, therefore 6'6'' is more accurate.

Look at JT's closer photo. In all fairness, it does look like UT is on his toes, but it's very very slight. Wright is nearly doing a ballet stand. There's probably about 4" between the too in normal clothes, maybe 2"-3" depending on Wright's wrestling boots.

Something doesn't seem right. Sid used to step into the ringue towering above the top rope, like Nash or Khali. I just don't see it possible for a 6'6'' man. Hogan or Scott Hall couldn't lift their legs that hight and they were billed at 6'6'' at the very least.

Since Hulk Hogan is listed as 6'6 and Sid was taller than him when Hogan was at his peak by 2 inches, I think Sid should be given 6'8. What do you say Rob?

Editor Rob, put on another 0.5", or 1" and his height will be accurate. I think Sid is slightly taller than 6'7".

Viper i know it sounds crazy but Sid did not look as tall as i thought we would
And i would look a good amount taller than Mamum if i was next to him so Sid being 6ft 6 can be possible in street clothes and like i said Wrestlers wear lifts in there Wrestling boots im sure of it

you really cant make an accurate call on height unless your with 3 inches of another guy. I was thrown off because of the distance i was away from him and his posture when i was helping him lift somthing.
I just dont know think about this
when your 5'8 like mamun rob and glenn seeing a guy who is 6'2 to 6'2 which is fairly common (1 to 2 guys out of 10) thats like a 6'2 to 6'3 guy (myself) seeing a man who is 6'9- 6'10. Also when your indoors like frank was with taker people appear taller because of the ceilings etc.

well frank is wrong ill tell you a little story.
When i was working the other day there was this man that seemed unusually tall (6'5+) he asked me for help with somthing and i guessed his height "Your about 6'5 6'6 right you ever play any sports) he replied no im 6'7 and i kind of said yea right. Mind you im almost 6'3 so i have better judgment than my 5'8 firends like rob glenn and manum and 5'11.5 frank. The next day i was putting somthing away and i came within inches from him when he leaned back and stretched and believe me if i had to guess again i would have said 6'7 6'8.
Its odd that its almost the same situation but this stuff happens.

6'6 is real close I think. in 1989 Tiny Lister was about 1-1.25 inch taller than Hogan and he is often put at 6'6 peak, only a couple of years later Sid was about 2 inches taller than Hogan. Maybe 6'6.75 for Sid.

It's not that Sid is'nt 6'6, but rather that Sid can't be 6'6 if Hogan gets a peak 6'6. We have the footage that Sid was a fair amout taller than Hogan so either Hogan's peak has to go down to say 6'4.5 or Sid has to go up to 6'7. Remember that Sid is not all that much younger than Hogan, in the early 90's photo's Sid was no spring chicken either,he was in his mid 30's and maybe he had lost just a little height from his peak of about 10 years earlier as well.

of couse 6'6 is wrong for sid,
Think about this, assuming sid is a HUMAN he looses height over the course of the day. So If sid is 6'6 that means he would be down to around 6'5.5 at night AND WE ALL KNOW that there is no way that sid was ever around 6'5.5. Rob putting sid at 6'7 would make everingthing come together more accuratly for this website and thats that but he just doesnt want to do it.
(btw there will always be people who say people are shorter just like people say brad pitt is 5'9 and arnold shwarzenegger is 5'9 and tom cruise is 5'5.6)
Majority rules 99 percent of the evidence and observers say he is 6'7 and he himself said he was between 6'8 6'9 in an interview of his ("sid shoot" interview on youtube)

We know Taker is taller than Sid so it does look strange that Taker did not look alot taller than Adams in that video...Taker tilts his head downward @ times where Sid tiltes his head back

Stick to your guns Rob, Hogan had shrunk up already to about 6'4 1/2 by the early 90's so that is why sid had some height on him. Even if Sid maxed out at 6'6.25 or 6'6.3/8 that is no reason to change the posting.

You cannot make a definite judgment call on the pictures, In Sids the camera is slightly pointing upward and Mamun's cousin the camera is slightly pointing downwards. Percentage value wise Sid compared to a 5'8 mamun is 6'7.5.

In 2002 taker had minimum 4 inches on hogan, there have been photos here proving that, but watch the match also, taker kind of towers hogan.
My guess is taker had 3 inches on hogan 1991, sid about 2 inches at least.

Mr-6'5 , Thank you very much for taking an interest in my photos . In regards
to your first inquiry , the picture of my cousin and his comparrisons with Sid
and Kane all exists in a photo album wonderfuly done by my good friend here JT
So I am asking my dear friend JT to post the pic of my cousin and those others
he did once again . If not , then you can ask my dear friend Rob to provide my
e-mail address to you and I shall send the pic to you personnally .
In regards to your second inquiry , well if you are 6'5.5" bare feet and you
say that your brother barely reaches your chin , then my guess as well as
every one here is that he can not be no more than 5'8" . So he is most likely
to be between 5'7" or 5' 7.5" . No way he could be 5'9" barefoot based on your
observation .
There is however another way you can get him measured without him even knowing
it . See if you can get a friend who you personnally measured at 5' 8" or 5'7"
barefoot and try and get him to take a pic with your brother . This will most
definately work and you will get a clear estimate of his height . Good luck
friend .
Kind regards

We do have photos and a stare down of Hogan and Sid from 1991 and 1992 (Sid was at least 2 inches taller), and we know Sid and Taker were basically the same height in the ring. IIRC, WWF billed Sid at 6'9" and 313 lbs. and Hogan usually 6'8" and 302 lbs. (they referred to Hogan as 6'9" around the time of No Holds Barred).

If anyone has a staredown between Taker and Hogan in 91 would be great. Sid was billed at 6'9 with Hogan at 6'7. Remember Hogan/Taker 2 looked 2 inches to me, unless there's good pics out there.

we never got a staredown between taker and hogan in 1991 or both never stood side by side unfortunately, sometimes camera angles can be deceptive e.g. in the ring in WCW hogan barely looks shorter than 6'8 karl malone (there is one point when they locked up they looked the exact same height)
hogan and taker did have a stare off in 2002 and taker was 3" taller, of course some will say hogan was 15" shorter in 2002, lol but remember hogan had a staredown with flair in 1991 and 2003 and there was barely any difference, meaning flair must have lost a ton of height too....
not sure i buy sid wearing lifts (with hogan in 1991-92 or anytime in fact), as far as i remember sid was only billed 1 inch taller and i have heard people say both were billed at 6'8 in the summer of 1991
we never got a staredown between taker and hogan in 1991 or both never stood side by side unfortunately, sometimes camera angles can be deceptive e.g. in the ring in WCW hogan barely looks shorter than 6'8 karl malone (there is one point when they locked up they looked the exact same height)

Vegas totally agree with comments. Monsoon's comments on height/weight always amused me. He even said he was 6'6. In the 91 match between Taker and Hogan the difference was hardly there surprisingly, that's why I think he needed to make a comment. Consistency wise I also agree I have both Sid/Taker within .5 inch difference my estimation around 6'6. Still think v's Hogan Sid used larger boots or lifts as Taker didn't have as much height on Hogan.

Mark i wouldn't use what moonson said as evidence after all he did say at mania3 that Andre was 7'5 and hogan 6'8 (a 9" difference) when it was clear to me as a 10 year old child it was no more than half that
i think people are looking more for consistency regarding Sid rather than upgrading, e.g. you can't have Sid at 6'6 and Hogan at 6'6 when it is clear to everyone that Sid was at least 2" taller, you can't have undertaker at 6'7.5 and sid at 6'6 when it looks barely 0.5" difference, for me it is a bit like John Cena and Kevin Federline, for a long time Cena was listed at 6'0 here and federline at 5'11, yet there was a clear 3.5" at least between those two in a staredown (both wearing trainers)
alex2 this is a photo taken from the gonzales/sid match with both standing fully tall (remember gonzales is bending his head alot during the staredown) Click Here

Rob stick to your guns my man, no disrespect Alex 2 but side with Frank on this one, people who I know who've met the man say although a big man isn't as big as they thought he would be. Some have said possibility that he's around 6'5-6'6. I belive him to be a flat 6'6, 1/2 an inch shorter than Taker (I don't believe from what I've read that Frank has seen Taker in street clothes?) I believe V's Hogan had some support in the boots has he looked noticably taller compared to Hagan than Taken did (who are roughly same height, give/take 1/2 an inch in the same era.) Monsoon was quoted in 91 as saying both Taker and Hogan roughly same height.

Sid is probably the most underated height on this site. As for Nathan Jones, he is the most "helped" height in here, if not just picture these scenarios... Jones towers above Kevin Nash (when Hell freezes it might be real) and Jones also has some amazing 4 inches on Sid!! (right, i would like to see a staredown between both. I believe Sid is just barely shorter)

On this sight Jesse Ventura is listed at 6'4, he was always about 2.5 inch shorter than Hulk Hogan, and Hogan was was about 2.25 inch shorter than Sid. So Sid was about 4.75 inch taller than Ventura, that would make Sid 6'8.75. if Sid is only 6'6, then Hogan was only 6'3.75 back when and Ventura was only about 6'1.25. A much more likely scenario is that Sid was 6'7.25, Hogan 6'5 and Ventura 6'2.50

Sid can not be only 6'6 if the undertaker is 6'7 1/2. They are the same height, and if anything Undertaker had slightly bigger soles on his boots during the staredowns. Upgrade this man!!

jeez rob seriously. Look at the video below and know that sid was over 6'6. Come on now im sick of looking on this page and still seeing him as 6'6, its not funny anymore. Our goal along with you is to make this websight as accurate as possible yet these kind of things are holding you back. You have hogan listed asd 6'6 yet Sid is listed the same height even though he is inches taller than he is. You have The undertaker listed as 6'7.5 and sid is a half inch under that and at his height consistantly...yet you still have him as 6'6. I have mathimatically measured the above photo with a 5'8 mamun and he is still over 6'7. Rob do yourself and us a favor by making this sight as accurate as possible. Rob If you are a math man you would have found that with the 100 photos given here 99 percent of them have the guy at 6'7 and
over. If your not so much a math man like myself and you more of the artistic type you would see* that 99 percent of the photos and videos given have sid at or above 6'7 lol.

Sids charisma is as large as his frame..i watched the eldiablo vid, pretty cool..some deceptive camera angles made sid look smaller than UT by an inch especially the build up to the first staredown, but the staredown itself..well you could easily have sid at 6'7 minimum..I think it would be cool if he came back..heres hoping :). the 90's is my favourite era for wrestlin..

I agree, IF, Hogan was 6'6, fine, but then Sid can't also be 6'6. He was alot taller in every photo. I would go as far as to say Sid had to be two inches taller.

Wasn't he always taller than Hogan? So if Hogan was 6'6" at this peak, that would lead me to believe Sid was at least 6'7".

Sid doesn`t have any footwear advantage here in this photo. White colour makes differences, yes?
And I totally agree with you, gentleman. 6-7 minimum, and might have very well been 6`8" at his peak.

He looks bigger then 6'6. You're looking at 6'8 or 6'9 atleast for sure.
I was just watching Bash At The Beach 1999, and the guy is just HUGE. About the same height as Nash (6'10) and Sid had alot better of a physique and build too.
I want Sid back! Hopefully Vince/Sid can work something out this year. I think he's 48 now, so soon it will be two late for a comeback altogether.

I think Sid is 6'8'' and Nash 6'10''. The 6'6'' mark seems way too low. That's probably Scott Hall's height or so.

I think a lot of early comparisons were made to Mamun's cousin, who apparently stands 198cm. Honestly, on first glance, it really was difficult to separate the heights of M's cousin, Sid and Kane for that fact.

6'6" is impossible, I would just say simply that I met him as well and am the same height as this guy, but to me that reasoning isn't good enough, plus I know guys who are 6'6" and it's unfair to reason that he is.
So anyway, if you do some math using their heights in pixels compensating for their footware, depending on whether he's 5'8" 8.5" or 9", Sid comes out as 6'7.3", 6'7.5" and 6'8" even. Also to point out, the picture is tilted in the other guy's favor just slightly. Whatever the case may be, Sid is at least 11" taller than him. To put it bluntly, in this picture Sid is 1.1666 x taller than him and 1.1666 x 68 = 79.32. I can't get anymore technical than that. If you want to also compensate for the fact that Mamun is obviously standing up as straight as he can vs Sid's casual stance, there could be possibly an extra .5" legit difference Right now, I think it's safe to go with 6'7 3/8". Saying Sid is only 10" taller than him is impossible based on this picture.

I still firmly believe he was at LEAST 6'7". Way over 300 pounds and cut too, at his largest.
Any one else notice he looks/looked almost exactly like BROCK SAMPSON? GO see the venture bro's cartoon if you do not know who Brock Sampson is.

Sid was at least 6`7" in his peak. And remember that Mamum is a strong 5-8 who could be closer to 5-9 in this photo!

Studd and OMG never had a true face off but they looked about the same height in the ring (Click Here) (Click Here). IMO, Sid would have Studd by about an inch. 6'5" Bill Fralic was an inch shorter than Studd at WM 2.
I doubt Studd in 1989 was over 400 lbs. but more likely in the 350-375 lbs. range. Khali (Dalip Singh) is at least a

We already had an INSANE face-off in 1989 with 6'7" Big John Studd and 6'6" One Man Gang at the Royal Rumble, where Studd was pushing 405 for that event (experts say) and O.M.G. was in the neighborhood of 450 at that point. Two MONSTERS. Studd was THICK. Sid was VERY defined. Sid was around 330 pounds.

Doink 95 thanks for your answer....I met Taker back in 1994 at The Paramount theater in Madison Square Garden(Picture is on The Undertaker Page) and he look very tall and i asked how tall he was and he told me 6ft 9 and i believe him because too me looked it and also at the time he was being billed at 6ft 10 and 6ft 10 1/2 by JIm Ross. So i figured if he was going to lie he would have said 6ft 10 like we was being billed at..I did see Sid in Street clothes and he did not look that tall too me..When both Taker and Sid in ring gear faced off Taker looked alittle taller than Sid by half an inch to an inch

I don't know if they ever faced each other. In the early 90's Andre was already getting away from Wrestling due to poor health and Nash was not around much and yet to become a favorite. The guy that best personificated the figure of the tall/bodybuilder style was Sid in my opinion. Some tall guys were not enough muscular and most bodybuilding wrestlers were too short.

dink's real height(tiger Jackson) was just under 4'0, like you said 3'10"" or so. The thing that is deceiveing about the above picture, is that look at the angle in which Sid is standing sort of slanted, not straight on like Mamun is standing. Like I said I have a picture with Sid straight on in the dressing room, with our street clothes on, no wrestling boots, etc (which by the way depending on sole thickness can add 2''-3"" to a wrestlers height. Also look at jeff hardy & Triple H on last nights Raw, hardy is listed at 6'0-6'1, An Trip is billed as 6'5 ??? Trip is more like 6'2.5 topps!!!! watch closely on Raw and smackdown and you'll see MOST wrestlers no matter how tall they are billed are between 6'0 and 6'4. Sid, Kev Nash,Khali being the exception. Any wrestling questions guys, I'd be happy to answer. Frank- taker is the same height as Sid, and Nash is just a hair under 7- 6'10.5 legit

I would love to see a picture of Big john studd and sid from late 80's or early 90's. that would answer alot of questions. My suspicion is that sid would be about the same height, which would cause a serious downgrade for studds height. They must have faced each other, they would have been like the two biggest guys (other than Andre/nash) from that time.

Estimation said on 26/Nov/07
I think it would be a good estimate to say that Sid had around 2.5 inches on Hogan in 1991. The difference looked slightly more than 2 inches, but not so much as 3 inches. Sid is 6'7" (201 cm). Hogan is 1.95 cm. Difference = 6 cm (approximately 2.5 inches).

Why is he not listed at 6'7"?? I'll even take 6'6.5" for crying out loud!
Anonymous, not that this is the biggst deal, but he does have the long hair there. It's just hard to see, look at his left shoulder. He actually doesn't have the mullet anymore tho, I think he looked better with it.

Sid was no less than 6'7 that's for sure, I've never seen his hair as short as it is in the Mamun pic, you could add an inch if Sid has the big curly haired mullet on that he usually did. Hogan's boot's seem to have an extra big heel in those pics. If Sid was only 310 Hogan must have been down to 285 already by 1990. What year is the pic with Manun from? before or after 2001, it makes a difference.

Sid was 6'8 at his peak in the he early 90's. He was 2.75-3 inches taller than hogan at that time and you would have to put hogan under 6'5 to get Sid under 6'8. Heck, Hogan was still being put at 6'8 in alot of places in 90. He was about the same amount taller than Hogan as Studd was, and Studd was always put at 6'10-6'11. Also he was about the same amount taller than Hogan as Ben Davidson was, (almost). If you put Sid at 6'6 in 91' Hogan would be about 6'3-6'3.25. Sid was born at the wrong time, he was one of the all time biggest wrestlers but he never really made it big. If he would he have come out at the same time as Hogan, when they listed guys way over what they were, he would have been like 6'11 360. I beleive he was a ligit 320 in his prime, he looked alot bigger(20+ pounds) than Hogan back then and I think Hogan was still close to 300. Sid was one of the only wrestlers who was listed at just about his real size, go figure, If Sid is left at 6'6, there must be a mass down grading of everyone's height. I mean, Jesse Ventura is 6'4 peak, on this site and he was always a couple of inches shorter than hogan!!!!! All bets are off now for what he is now, his leg was about broken off.

Sid may not have "towered" Hogan per se, but he certainly made Hogan look shorter than he really was. Sid was always visibly much taller than Hogan, I noticed that from watching them as a 10 year old kid.
Sid was/is an intimidating presence, even with a big guy like Hogan standing right next to him.

Supes, you're confusing dates and other stats. Hogan faced off with Sid in 1991. Hogan had claimed to have lost 1 1/4" in 1990. Due the math. Hope I won't have to do it for you ;).

Hogan should still have been at his peak height or at least very close to it when he faced Sid since the match took place in 1990. So, if Sid is only listed at 6'6", then Hogan was only 6'4" or 6'3" according to the pic of their face-off. I'm not buying that. I think Hogan was around 6'5" in 1990 and Sid would have been 6'7".

You know, in that 2nd video of Sid standing next to Hogan, when he raises their hands nn the air and NOT when he is standing in front of him, looks barely taller than Hogan there and Hogan apparently claimed to lose 1 1/4" the year before. Why would Hogan have claimed that specific measurement and draw unnecessary attention to his height at a time where NO ONE had a reason to question it yet?

Sid looks like a monster in the Family Feud video. He's built and proportioned like a comic book superhero. When he actually stands up he doesn't look more than 2" shorter than Nash there either.

He is only about 2" shorter than Nash, and .5 at most shorter than UT.
