I had already done five weeks' work as an extra at the Empire, Edinburgh, in The Glorious Days, starring Anna Neagle. I stood around on that stage for five weeks dressed as a Guards officer. I only got the job because they wanted someone tall - and I'm about six feet two inches. -- For Bond lovers only, 1965

Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 23/Dec/25I wouldn’t say it’s made up, Grayloth. The source just needs to be found…..I’m sure it’s out there somewhere Grayloth said on 21/Dec/25However, that 6’2⅜” source seems hard to find. Maybe it is just made up in some internet forum?Connery consistently gave his height as 6’2”. So maybe he wasn't any taller?The 6’2⅜” figure has no primary source and doesn’t match how height was recorded in the 1950s. I believe Mr. Universe only used height for broad class placement, not precise measurement, and there doesn't seem to be any contemporary reports that list Connery with fractional‑inch accuracy. All period sources — and Connery himself — consistently give his height as 6’2”. This number seems to appear much later online, often without documentation. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 20/Dec/25Grayloth, I think there is some credibility to that Mr. Universe stat, likely a mid-morning measurement.6ft2 overall is fine for Connery but that alleged 6ft1½ measurement by the Bond tailor I take with a hefty pinch of salt. He was guy who I think maintained his height far better than most as he got older. He still looked this range in the 80’s-90’s. Grayloth said on 19/Dec/25@viperYes, but he also was measured as 6'2&3/8" for Mr Universe. Probably a morning height however. He can't be shorter than 6'2. Grayloth said on 19/Dec/25@viperYes, but he also was measured as 6'2&3/8". Probably a morning height however. He can't be shorter than 6'2. viper said on 18/Dec/25The Bond tailors supposedly measured him at 6-1.5This was on a site some years back Czechman said on 16/Dec/25I don't believe 188 cm for Connery. He was one of my favorite extra charismatic actors and he was tall and powerful, but I don't think he was 188 cm. And why I think so:1. He was a little shorter than 188 cm tall Desmond Llewelyn2. He was about the same height as Charles Gray (185 cm) in Diamonds Are Forever3. He was about the same height as Roger Moore (185 cm)4. He was quite a bit shorter than Jimmy Dean (191 cm) in Diamonds Are Forever5. He was a lot shorter than Pat Roach (194 cm) in Never Say Never Again6. Not much taller than Nicolas Cage in The Rock, but we have to take into account Connery's older age, so he could have lost 1-2 cm.Doubts:1. He looked a lot taller than Gert Frobe in Goldfinger, even though there would only be about 2 cm between them (the difference looks at least 5 cm) Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Dec/25Yeah Rory, it’s perfectly valid to keep him at 6ft2 flat. I just think he edged out Caine pretty consistently over the years to perhaps suggest the possibility of him measuring a touch over it rather than under.188cm on the dot is fine. He was a guy who I think stayed around that mark for years though. He still looked 6ft2 well into his 60’s, worst case a tad shy….so in peak form, I don’t think he was less than 6ft2. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Nov/25Grayloth, you can’t rule it out. Rory said on 25/Nov/25Honest as the day is long 6ft2 guy peak, but I can't see any necessity to upgrade him to 2.25, feels unnecessary. Grayloth said on 24/Nov/25@Rampage(-_-_-)CloverSo 188.5 cm in his prime is the most logical height for him then? Not 188 cm. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 21/Nov/25@Philip Z: Connery still looks 6ft2 with Cage in that photo….. Philip Z said on 9/Nov/25Next to Nic Cage in 1996, when Connery was 66 years old: Click HereStill an easy 6ft 1.5 at the time. Philip Z said on 27/Oct/25@MHB: At the time, Connery was likely sub-6ft 2, and Moore is closer to the camera in both shots. There are many other shots of both in which Connery almost always enjoys some height over Moore: Click Here MHB said on 23/Oct/25Ok guys now this is confusing: Roger Moore is clearly shorter than Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was most likely about 6'1" 1/2 right out of bed in his prime. Click Here Roger Moore seems to be the same height, and in some pictures taller than Connery. Click Here, Click Here What is going on??? Every claim here is "solid 6'2" but these pictures really make me doubt it. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Oct/25Grayloth, at times I’ve seen it as possible. I’d probably choose it over 6ft1¾ given that he edged Caine and Hackman…..but for the time being 6ft2 flat will do. Grayloth said on 19/Oct/25@Rampage Yeah, so 6'2.25 would be a fair listing, right? Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 17/Oct/25Grayloth, supposedly he was. I think it carries some weight as those guys would get measured barefoot. Earlier in the day it’s quite likely……more credible than the reported 6ft1½ measurement by the Bond tailors. Grayloth said on 12/Oct/25@avi He was measured as 6’2&3/8” in Mr Universe? avi said on 10/Oct/25@Grayloth said on 1/Oct/25 Maybe 188.5 cm (6’2&1/4”) Nah 6'2 flat seems right he looks 6'1.5 to 6'2 most the time but evidence points to he was legit 6'2 @Arch Stanton Donald pleasance was probably a 5'5.5 guy at worst maybe he truly was 5'6 But i consider him a weak 5'6 Connery looked the 8 inches on him The big guy listed 6'8 seemed about 13 to 14 bigger Prob they gave him footwear too to be even bigger But he looked 5.5 to 6 bigger than Connery Grayloth said on 1/Oct/25Maybe 188.5 cm (6’2&1/4”)? Arch Stanton said on 20/Sep/25Yes, I think that Rich bloke looked a good 14 inches taller than Donald Pleasance, 6 ft 8 and change very possible. Daycringeothon said on 15/Sep/25Blofeld’s guard was character actor Ronald Rich. He could have been 6’8” and change. In Alfie with shared scenes with Michael Caine he looks minimum 7” taller. Caine may have been 6’1” flat. It wouldn’t be so surprising that Rich had shoe enhancements to look more intimidating. Arch Stanton said on 7/Sep/25I thought Connery was an average height man when I was a teenager. Must be his tall co-stars in the Bond films and being dwarfed by that Hans bodyguard in You Only Live Twice! With people like Desmond Llewelyn, Bernard Lee and Lois Maxwell I can be forgiven for not thinking him tall! Daycringeothon said on 5/Sep/25Connery was definitely a 6 foot 1 and maybe half inch post-bodybuilding (Bond era). He does have average-man-sort-of-posture i.e proportions. Some people mistake him for say 5’10” range with no point of reference. it’s very clear put him next to a diminutive man like Yul Brynner and it’s obvious he’s 6’+ tall. If Yul was 5’6”-5’7” with say an 8 inch head, Connery under 6 foot is highly unlikely. 5'7 and a fraction said on 29/Jul/25@Rob, what would you have said Connery head length was? For a 6'2 guy, i wouldn't have said long or anything like that but nor small in length relative to body proportions and height such as Jim Carrey or Hugh Jackman. Maybe 9.5 head length?Editor RobYeah, I doubt it was longer than 9.5. Lenad 5 ft 9.75 in said on 29/Jul/25I think sean was a legit 6'2 at peak. reachjtm said on 17/Jul/25what? grant has much better posture. the batman 97080 said on 12/Jul/25Connery and Cary Grant look almost identical in height in this picture, especially considering Grant is leaning. Click Here Gerald S said on 14/Jun/25Rob, do you think Alec looks 5’9” at most below? Click HereEditor RobAgain, roughly around 5ft 9 Gerald S said on 9/Jun/25Rob, in the below video, Alec seems 5’9” range aged 57, can we assume he may have shrunk a fraction and put him on Celebheights at 5’9.25”? Click Here As said earlier, I thought Alec cleared 5’9” in Frenzy. McCowen would be a sterling addition to the Celebheights family… Gerald S said on 7/Jun/25Rob, is Alec McCowen eligible for a page on Celebheights? Strong 5’9” peak? FRENZY, NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN, THE HAWAIIANS, GANGS OF NEW YORK, THE AGE OF INNOCENCE, TRAVELS WITH MY AUNT, TIME WITHOUT PITY… that should be a more than good enough resumé for a page. 5’9” with Sean suggests the possibility of 5’9.25” peak.Editor RobI know his face, but don't think I ever paid attention to his height. Grayloth said on 28/May/25I also feel he is a bit underlisted. 189 cm seems spot on and what he measured during Mr Universe. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/May/25Rob, could Bruce Glover and Putter Smith get added? Both best-known for their performances as Mr. Kidd and Mr. Wint in Diamonds are Forever. Bruce passed away recently (also Crispin’s dad). At a guess I think 5ft9 range for him (listed 5ft10 in places - not as sure) while Putter looked about Connery’s height give or take - he happens to have a 6ft2 listing on his IMD. Bruce acted in a load of things throughout his career while Putter is primarily a jazz musician and acted in a few things after the Bond movie….. Gerald S said on 2/May/25Rob, can you add his DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER co-star, Laurence Naismith? Listed at 5’10” on spotlight I recall, but barely over 5’7” by THE PERSUADERS! I’d say 5’8” peak; no more. W/Stanley Baker Click Here W/Douglas Wilmer Click Here Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 21/Nov/24I think Connery held 6ft2 at his low. That reported Mr. Universe listing of 6ft2⅜ carries some weight. He may well have hit that mark at an earlier time once. Those guys are measured barefoot as well..... kerz said on 19/Nov/24Rob, would a fraction under 6ft 2 be arguable, like Lazenby and Dalton? Editor RobIs the chance greater he was just over or under 6ft 2? I think he had to be very close to it, but I'm not seeing him being over the mark in the afternoon. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 25/Sep/23Both Connery and Reynolds fall into that solid 6ft2 zone..... Canson said on 15/Sep/23@Editor Rob: Connery imho at his peak. Reynolds’s is shorter than Brett Favre and has admitted to being under 6’2 before. Connery was 6’2 peak more than likely 5'7 and a fraction said on 13/Sep/23I would have said they were the exact same tbh. turtle said on 12/Sep/23Rob who would say would measure taller, Ryan Reynolds or Sean Connery? Editor RobMight give Ryan the better chance of measuring a little bit taller. Slim1.75m said on 4/Sep/23Well it's up for debate Carroll looks shorter than Wayne but Chandler is tough to put down Sometimes I thought Chandler was the taller? Sometimes I thought it was Wayne but they were of a similar range. Gerald S said on 2/Sep/23Agreed Rob, near 184cm suits Joseph Wiseman perfectly, let's give him that. In some shots, he can look taller than Connery thanks to his extra footwear and camera angles. Slim1.75m said on 1/Sep/23So @Rob could you also add Lane Chandler & John Carroll who were both billed 6'4 I'd like to hear your thoughts. Editor RobWould need to look at them at some point, as I'm not so sure Carroll was 6ft 4 Gerald S said on 31/Aug/23Rob, I really hope to see Joseph Wiseman get a page. Looks 6ft with Kirk Douglas, more 6’1” with Sean Connery; evidently somewhere in 6’0”-6’1” zone, potentially 6’0.5”. With Kirk: Click Here Click Here Click Here With Sean: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Editor RobYeah I should add him, he could be near 184cm. That's that said on 26/May/23He was over the six feet mark, but I have never seen him being anything too farther away from it. But that's the thing: someone who is above a mark and without fully reaching the following one they themselves or others round it up and since most of the time we're wearing shoes people don't see any issue counting one, one and half, perhaps even two inches in to their actual height. I would estimate six feet (6') and a very good extra fraction of an inch (0.9 least) and, on shoes, very close to or just a little above the six feet two inches mark (6'2"). Arch Stanton said on 16/May/23Roger Browne is described as 6'1.5 in the film "The Spy Who Loved Flowers". Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/May/23Wow, great find Hong! Connery looks 6ft3 in that clip with Letterman... Hong said on 3/May/23Click Here Even in old age Connery looked a solid 6ft2. Gerald S said on 18/Apr/23Rob, I concur with Rampage. 6’0.5” is a great listing for Wiseman. Definitely over six feet but whether he was more 6’0” or 6’1”, too close to call. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 15/Apr/23Wiseman looks pretty much even with Connery in that one shot! Watching Dr. No though, there's more than inch overall between them. 6ft0½ can definitely be argued, not so sure about a full 6ft1 though. Anthony Dawson looked noticeably closer in height to Sean than Joseph did. Gerald S said on 24/Mar/23Rob, how tall does Joseph Wiseman look below with Connery? Click Here Editor RobCould look 6ft 1 there, more footwear though. Sandy Cowell said on 21/Mar/23I couldn’t believe it when he passed. I first noticed what a brilliant, not to mention attractive, actor he was when I watched Hitchcock’s Marnie at 9 years of age. He was in other great films as well, and though I am not a Bond fan, I think he was the best Bond EVER. 6ft2. 🕯 5'7 and a fraction said on 17/Mar/23He still looked tall, even in his old age, at age 90. Very rare for that to happen. He definitely maintained his height very well, despite his age and having dementia. Arnie was only 1/2 an inch shorter than Connery at his peak yet already looks way shorter than he used to be at 75. I can't see Connery any less than 6'2 peak. Absolute, absolute worst case for him is 6'1 7/8. This bond tailor thing has never been confirmed, thus should be taken with a pinch of salt. Matt1990 said on 26/Feb/23I heard he claimed 6ft1.5 barefoot claim aswell but hear what puts it into doubt in the 1950s he was measured at a bodybuilding show at 6ft2.4 so I wouldn’t of throught they measure him in shoes and the James Bond tailor alleged to have measured him at 6ft1.5 if that’s legit question is did the 6ft1.5 measurement come in his later years or did they messure him with different equipment or messuring tape cos sometimes there not always the same Editor RobIt's been mentioned, but never heard it. Only quote I found was the 'about 6ft 2', which can go both ways - somebody is under or over the mark and says 'about'. Henrik said on 19/Jan/23With 6ft 1.5-listed Anthony Perkins in Murder on the Orient Express: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here Lenad 5ft9.75in said on 18/Jan/23189cm possible at peak. I think more 188 though. Arch Stanton said on 17/Jan/23Brynner looks like Joe Rogan sort of height there! Henrik said on 13/Jan/23Did Connery claim 6ft 1.5? I know Rob cites him where he says "about" 6ft 2 which could be taken as an indication of 6ft 1.5, but it's not an unequivocal statement, though. Editor RobIt's been mentioned in the past he might have claimed it, though I never saw the interview. Hong said on 13/Jan/23Click Here Here's Sean looking every bit of his 6ft2 inches next to 5ft8 yul Brynner. Lenad 5ft9.75in said on 10/Jan/23I think a weak 188cm is bang on for a young sean. Sean himself claimed 6'2 and once 6'1 1/2 so he probably dipped between both. I think connery was a legit 6'2 while michael caine was more in the 6'1 range. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 7/Jan/23Connery was probably a more solid 6ft2 than Lazenby and Dalton. Henrik said on 12/Dec/22@Rory Connery looked taller than Gordon Scott in Tarzan's Greatest Adventures, the second husband of Vera Miles, who was billed as 191cm/6ft 3. George Lazenby who is listed here as 187cm/6ft 1.75 peak also said Connery was taller than himself. QM6'1.5"QM said on 7/Oct/22Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 5'7 and a fraction said on 24/Sep/22 For example, he looked barely weak 3inches vs Lewis Collins in «Jack the Ripper» (1988). In every single shot,in every single scene. About weak 3inches compared to Lewis. Incredible TV movie by the way. I mean even 6'1.25" (barefoot, without shoes) is very possible. There was not that height difference as between 5'10.5" vs real 6'2"!!! 6'1.5" is not too low, if we talking about real evening barefoot measuring, lol! Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 3/Oct/226ft2 is still an okay listing for Caine overall 5'7 and a fraction said on 24/Sep/226'1.5 max peak for Caine is too low. Whilst I don't think he was quite 6'2 either I doubt he was that low. Rampage is right. Around 187 - 188 is how he looked. QM6'1.5"QM said on 2/Sep/22Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Aug/22 Caine was never true and full 6'2". 6'1.5" peak max! Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Aug/22I don't think Connery was under it, Rory. 6ft2 on the nose is fine for him but I just think he held it as his low and may have had better odds of measuring a wafer above it. During his career he was regularly referred to as 6ft2, 6ft2½ and 6ft3 while Caine was given 6ft1, 6ft1½ and 6ft2. Looking at both of them both together and in separate movies with a lot of the same actors, around the 6ft2 mark looks right for both. But if we were to technical, I just feel Sean may have been a 6ft2 and change dude (188-188.5cm) while Michael a shy of 6ft2 (187.5-188cm) Rory said on 13/Jul/22I don't think Connery was over 6ft2. I think he was just a bogstandard 6ft2 guy,I can't think of any instances where he convincingly looked over it. 5'7 and a bit said on 14/Jun/22While Michael Caine may not quite been 6'2, however 6'1 3/4 is likelier than 6'1 1/2. If we go by 187 for Caine then Connery being 6'2 edging him actually makes sense. 6'1.5 is still a bit low for Connery tbh. @Rampage(-_-_-)Clover Completely agree with your estimates. A small touch under 6'2 for Caine, a small touch over 6'2 for Connery. I would throw a few more names to that list being, Timothy Dalton: 6'2 (flat) George Lazenby: 6'1 7/8 Pierce Brosnan: 6'1 3/8 Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 4/Jun/22I maintain 6ft2-2¼ for mint condition Connery. Consistently taller than 6ft1 range dudes (e.g. Roger Moore, Gert Frobe and Charles Gray). At one point I thought 6ft2½ but that's earlier in the day stuff more likely. The Mr. Universe figure seems reputable enough as a mid-day measurement. Now in the 90's (specifically around the period of The Rock right up to Entrapment) Sean was likely hovering somewhere within 6ft1½-2 and by the 2000's still within the 6ft1 zone. The last decade of his life is harder to decipher but I'd say when measured could still probably clear 6ft... This is where I stand Sean Connery: 6ft2⅛(188.3cm) Gene Hackman: 6ft2(188cm) Michael Caine: 6ft1⅞(187.3cm) Roger Moore: 6ft1⅜(186.4cm) Sinclair said on 3/Jun/22I understand Viper’s 6’1.5” hypothesis. Weak 6’4” Donald Sutherland had a full two inches on Connery in The Great Train Robbery. However, I can equally appreciate the 6’2” claims. That is why I am now drawn to 6’1.75” as a compromise. Connery was also the tiniest fraction taller than 6’1.5” Michael Caine. 5'7 and a bit said on 17/May/22I can understand why some may think little shy of 6'2 and go 6'1.75, but 6'1.5 is a bit low. Sinclair, I have to agree with Rampage. They could vary now and then, however Desmond likely did have the edge overall. Tech noir said on 15/May/226-2 on the button. Toby Barrett said on 6/May/22He Held Height Very Well Even In Later Life Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 6/May/22Sinclair, Llewelyn and Connery could vary beside each other in the films...I’d definitely tick Desmond off as also a robust 6ft2 though. Could be a coin toss between who was really taller Dawson though if you watch that scene is actually shorter than Connery, mind you he is slouching. Now he’s been described 6ft2 as well but I’d list him 6ft1½ maybe a weak 6ft2 at best, over 6ft1 for sure...but not taller than Connery. Rob, what do you think? 5'7 and a bit said on 3/May/22Easily 6'2, one of the most genuine 6'2s I've seen imo. Could get away looking 6'3 at times. I believe if he'd fell below 6'2, it would be barely anything. RIP viper said on 25/Apr/22IMO 6-1.5 Sinclair said on 25/Apr/22Probably 6’1.75” peak; 6’2” Anthony Dawson edges out Connery in Dr. No, as shown in the video below and solid 6’2” Desmond Llewelyn clearly edged out Connery in the next four Bond films. Click Here 6’1.5” is getting into Michael Caine peak territory though, I thought Connery had the slightest edge on Caine in The Man Who Would Be King, even though Caine looked the stronger 6’1.5” at the 1989 Oscars, as seen below. Click Here Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Apr/22Connery still looked 6ft2 well into the 90's though, at worst maybe 187.5cm. I still think 188-188.5cm is right for his peak while Bowles could have been the full 189cm Jake: 1.84 m - 1.85 m said on 14/Apr/22Could pass for 189 cm in 'Murder on the Orient Express (1974)'. Miss Sandy Cowell - I expect you're a fan of this wonderful whodunit? IceCold said on 13/Apr/22Bowles listed 6'3 on Google Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Apr/22Editor Rob: Bowles is likely the stronger 6ft 2 compared to Sean. Yeah, Peter Bowles looked minimum 6ft2, wouldn't rule out 189cm for him...possible edge on Sean Sinclair said on 12/Apr/22As I reckon Connery and Adam West were 6’2” peak at the absolute most and 6’1.5” at the absolute least, I guess I should alter my votes for them from 6’2” to 6’1.75”, as 6’1.75” is exactly in the middle of 6’1.5” and 6’2”. Rapha said on 11/Apr/22Hi Rob I find that Connery looked a lot taller than the other Bond Actors. For example Moore or Dalton ( there were only 2 or 1 cm difference with Connery) Do you share that same opinion ? Editor RobI think he could look tallest, but it's close for peak height between Dalton, Connery & Lazenby. Tall Sam said on 23/Mar/22Yeah he held onto his height quite well for a while, still good height on Kevin Costner and Harrison Ford by the end of his 50s. Bradley said on 21/Mar/22Strong 6-2. Never hunched except firing his Walther PPK or drinking his dry martini. Rory said on 21/Mar/22Ian Bannen is probably six foot tops, can't at all see him measuring the 6ft1 he is listed in some parts. As for Hendry, I've always thought his 5ft10.75 listing is the most he could have been,10.5 is just as arguable for him I feel. The offence is a good film, I felt at times in that Peter Bowles was edging Connery, but then there wasn't any clear cut scenes to judge between them plus Bowles probably had the better posture too. Both looked like tall, 6ft2 range men in the film though. Editor RobBowles is likely the stronger 6ft 2 compared to Sean. Sinclair said on 19/Mar/22Rob, how tall would you say Ian Bannen was at peak? 6’0.75”? I thought Connery had at least an inch on him in The Offence and Bannen had about two full inches on weak 5’11” Ian Hendry in The Hill. Editor RobI looked at a Scene between Sean and Ian...I can't see him over 6ft there. Would need to look again at him and Hendry. OriginalAnon said on 4/Mar/22Rampage Clover, Baldwin might have only been 180cm during his prime. I am not sure if he was 181cm. I don't think Connery looks a full 188cm with him there but the angle might have a part to play in that. BoobleGooble said on 1/Mar/22He always looked solid 6'2 and even in his last years he looked 6'0 Tajaun said on 26/Jan/22Sulu2021 said on 7/Nov/21 Because about 20% of celebrity males are listed as 6ft 2 or taller on this site, this makes me think that roughly 20% of adult males in society have reached this height or taller in terms of their peak height making 6ft 2 actually be approximately in the 79th to 80th percentile. 🤦‍♂️ Please tell me you don't actually believe this. Sonnecker said on 10/Jan/22Sean was 6'2" and a quarter, about 189 in my opinion, easily. Considering posture and other factors, I see him as a strong 6'2". Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 18/Dec/21Still looking a solid 6ft2 w/h Baldwin Click Here Michael187BarefootInTheMorning said on 3/Dec/21I've normally see him get listed anywhere from 6'2 to 6'2.5. I'm going to go right in the middle of those.... and say peak Sean Connery was 6'2.25" MaskDeMasque 5'9.5 said on 23/Nov/21Legit 6'2 peak T.M. said on 22/Nov/21Saw a photo of him with Trump. In that photo Don is around 6'0 3/4". Sean looks a bit taller than him. 6'1'' as he got older. 6'2'' peak Original said on 20/Nov/21Peaked at 6'2". Chaoscontrol. said on 9/Nov/21Sulu2021 said on 7/Nov/21 Because about 20% of celebrity males are listed as 6ft 2 or taller on this site, this makes me think that roughly 20% of adult males in society have reached this height or taller in terms of their peak height making 6ft 2 actually be approximately in the 79th to 80th percentile. Editor Rob maybe there's a greater amount of sports-related stars (basketball, wrestling etc) on the site which skews the perception of a greater amount of 6ft 2+ folk. Yeah and also there’s more tall actors overall cause it’s an industry dependent on looks and physical presence Sulu2021 said on 7/Nov/21Because about 20% of celebrity males are listed as 6ft 2 or taller on this site, this makes me think that roughly 20% of adult males in society have reached this height or taller in terms of their peak height making 6ft 2 actually be approximately in the 79th to 80th percentile. Editor Robmaybe there's a greater amount of sports-related stars (basketball, wrestling etc) on the site which skews the perception of a greater amount of 6ft 2+ folk. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 24/Oct/21berta, I think in peak shape Connery fell somewhere within 188-188.5cm zone more so than 187cm (later in his career looked that more). He's on record as measuring 6ft2⅜ for a bodybuilding competition and I think it carries some weight like a bit earlier in the day. berta said on 21/Oct/21peak very legit 188, i guess maybe 188,3 if he got measured. Celebheights 6'1.5" said on 17/Oct/21RJT said on 6/Oct/21 @Editor Rob Do you think 6'2 is the tallest height that is most frequently met in real life? The % of someone taller after 6'2 got dropped quite significant even on CH, you can see it on Scottish/Aussie actors. Quite a lot 6'2 actors but 6'2.5" and above got fewer.... Editor Rob Yeah the percentage of course drops off sharply the higher we go. I do see a greater percentage of 6ft 1-2 men more often than 6ft 2-3 I feel. 6’3” is very tall, but I wouldn’t label it as a rare height. I’ve met quite a few people who are actually 6’3”-6’4”, and I was shocked when one of them revealed to me that they felt dissatisfied with their height. In this case, they didn’t feel tall enough. In bigger cities, 6’3”-6’6” is definitely not too uncommon, unless we are talking about on a percentage basis. There’ll be a broader range of racial and ethnic demographics in major areas.

That's what I figured, confusion over size vs height, but I didn't want to confuse it further by trying to clear it on your behalf. Best to ask you clean, straight up. At any rate, I'm sure you know there's no problem if you were disagreeing, I just figured there were some crossed lines on this occasion. Hong said on 6/Oct/21@Tall In The Saddle,when you commented As far as overall size goes,massive Clint Walker wins the day hand's down,I misunderstood this to mean you were of the opinion Walker was tallest ,of Conners Parker and Arness,I myself agree Walker was the broadest of the lot,but Arness was the tallest.

Hong said on 1/Oct/21Click Here @Tall In The Saddle,I have to disagree,Arness looked 3 inches taller than Wayne in BigJim Mclain.Arness in my opinion was a comfortable 6ft6.5 possibly 6ft7. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Sep/21Arch, in the 80’s-90’s he was looking more like a weak 6ft2 Tall In The Saddle said on 27/Sep/21@avi Yes, all notably tall 6'5" guys and actually very good actors IMO also who, despite Hollywood height prejudice, were still good enough to break through and find their respective niches in acting. As far as overall size goes, massive Clint Walker wins the day hands down. avi said on 23/Sep/21@Tall In The Saddle said on 13/Sep/21 Yes that is very true! It is the right to do so. I'm not one who goes out very much but it's having the freedom to do so. And yes I think Connors would be 2 inches taller than Wayne. John Wayne was not a true 6'4. Wasn't far from it but more in 6'3 zone. Clint walker I always thought 6'6 was a good listing. Some pictures next to 6'1 (maybe 6'0.75) Lee Marvin (they were in the Dirty Dozen movie I believe) indicates Walker was about 5 inches taller maybe 4.75 I suppose Walker could have been 6'5.75 Next to 6'1.5 listed James Gardner he was almost 4 inches taller with a slight weaker posture (looked up on Google images) Nonetheless all those guys Arness, Walker, Parker, and Connors all over 6'5 for sure :) Arch Stanton said on 14/Sep/21Yeah his side parting hairdo in Remington didn't help! I'm siding with Brosnan over Corden haha!! Brosnan always looked very classy and elegant, very Rodeo Drive tailors sort of thing. I would rather look like an early 60s Connery than Brosnan personally, though I understand Connery was wearing a toupee even in the early films. Connery undoubtedly looked a real 6'2 back then, but with Rowan Atkinson in Never Say Never I'd say nearer 6'1.5. Tall In The Saddle said on 13/Sep/21@avi Getting into some old series is a great goto during COVID. It’s funny, I’ve noticed some people who are home bodies anyway complain about not being able to go out. I guess it’s the psychology of a “right”, being taken away, even if said “right” isn’t generally exercised otherwise. LOL. You’ve grouped them nicely, Arness, Connors, Walker and Parker. Very tall guys as perceived even now but particularly so for their eras. There was a tribute to old Western stars during the late 70s that included Wayne, Connors and Walker among others. Connors stood alongside the Duke and looked so much taller. Unfortunately, Walker stood on a higher step level so a direct comparison wasn’t possible. Too bad, to have those three guys on the same ground and in the same frame would’ve been cool. Just me perhaps but I would’ve put money on Chuck edging Big Clint. . Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 13/Sep/21Arch, he looks like a bit of a dork on Remington Steele...in his 30’s he could pass for a 17 year old but then in something like Taffin, Mr. Johnson or Live Wire (extremely cheesy movie though, about explosive water!) he started to mature in his looks...it was obvious the Bond execs had still kept the feelers out when they asked him a second time...if he’d had gone ahead in 1986 he probably have gone the same way as Lazenby...so probably the best thing to have happened, it wasn’t quite his time yet Canson said on 11/Sep/21I wonder what the “about” is all about. No pun intended. When he said about 6’2”. Is he just under? Or over? James B 171.5 said on 11/Sep/21arch-James cordon had a bad run in with pierce Bronson apparently Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 10/Sep/21James, he was the most photogenic. Arch Stanton said on 10/Sep/21Brosnan I thought, particularly when younger looked very smarmy looking, as my mother said "peter perfect", a bit full of himself. James B 171.5cm said on 10/Sep/21Off topic but out of all the James bonds I’d say pierce brosnan was the most conventionally handsome (no homo) avi said on 8/Sep/21@Tall In The Saddle said on 4/Aug/21 I watched all The Rifleman episodes during Covid they had it on prime Good show. The boy (named Mark in the show) passed away this year. Chuck Connors looked 6'5 to 6'6 in that show for sure . One episode he was mentioned as 6'6 So it makes sense he was 6'5.5 He basically is same as Arness and Walker Fess Parker too is another one All 6'5-6'6 guys It's a massive height. It's basically start of giantish in a way People do not realize how big even 6'3-6'4 is But once you hit 6'5 it's really another world. I think more cons than pros unfortunately. Hong said on 7/Sep/21Click Here Here's Sean with 6ft listed Chris Walken,maybe it's footwear or something but they both look the same height? Arch Stanton said on 7/Sep/21Japan, China and India probably have some of the most brilliant minds on the planet though! Maybe they're among the most intelligent, but Sweden and Germany are exceptionally good particularly at engineering and construction etc.. The US loved having German and Swedish scientists emigrate there after WWII! Arch Stanton said on 7/Sep/21I think for Connery's generation the average was no more than 5 ft 8, I think Sinatra who was 15 years older at 5'7.5 would have been bang on average. 6 inches over the average height, he would have been considered very tall by woman and a lot of men. Ian C. said on 18/Mar/21 Although Connery was a Scot, his parents (or at least his father) were Irish. (Celts and Gaels are probably pretty much alike anyway.) I have heard that Scots are either short tough guys or tall, burly caber-throwers. I have also heard that they eat the unhealthiest diet on Earth, although this opinion is food puritanism (which I reflexively deplore.) While I'm on this kick, I've heard that the Germans are the toughest, and the Poles are the strongest and the French the most beautiful. I am a Canadian, and we're the most prone to strange, whimsical opinions that can't be supported by real world research. Seems rather generalised!!! I'm sure there's health nuts in Scotland like everywhere else and not everybody eats Deep Fried Mars Bars! Generalised from what I've seen I would say the Russians are the toughest, I would fear the Russian military or gangsters more than I would Americans. The Italians are easily the most beautiful in my opinion. Swedes and Germans the most intelligent. viper said on 19/Aug/21And yet today's generation growing up looks shorter, imo Rory said on 18/Aug/21@A Lawrence I dont think 6ft2 is "very tall" today. Its still obviously tall but not remarkably so. Back When Connery was young though in the 1950s and 60s 6ft2 would have been nudging "very tall" range. Equivalent to say a 25 yr old 6ft4 guy today in the West. Tall In The Saddle said on 4/Aug/21@Canson If you’re interested enough they’ve got a ton of complete episodes on YouTube among other old series which are good for height gaging. You probably already know this, but anyway:- If your television has the chrome cast app (if not already there you might be to download to tv) you can cast the vision to the big screen. Re YouTube videos. You’ll notice a small box with several arc lines emanating from the bottom left corner inside the box. These boxes appear on the main page of YouTube and and on every individual video. They appear right of centre at the top. Just tap the box and it will identify any eligible devices (viz your television hopefully) which you then select and the vid should then cast. Otherwise you can pick up inexpensive adapters that plug into your iphone and then into your televisions HDMI port. There’s also a USB cable that plugs into your television to provide sufficient power for the audio visual transmission and keep your phone charging at the same time. A lot of people oversight plugging in the USB cable and the result is absolutely no vision or sound because the phones own battery power can’t carry vision and sound. When cabled like this you can see whatever is currently appearing on your iPhone, be it Internet, YouTube, notes, personal photos, personal videos etc. Basically all features of your iPhone appearing on the big screen, so be careful in mixed company. Haha. Anyway, hope that doesn’t so too convoluted. Ultimately it boils down to being as simple as tying a shoe lace but just as difficult to write down precise instructions for doing same. LOL. Canson said on 4/Aug/21@Tall in the Saddle: I appreciate your assessement and I agree with you. Lol I watch some of those old shows here in the US on Charge TV. That one isn’t on there though Tall In The Saddle said on 4/Aug/21@Canson For now, I would go with the 6’5 1/2” listing but wouldn’t rule out a solid 6’5” because a legit 6’5” is still very tall IMO. Also, we know so many celebs inflate a bit so, by comparison, it might make Chuck appear even taller than he actually was. Back to back with Clint Walker, bare feet, it wouldn’t surprise me if they came out equal or even Chuck having the slightest edge. Really need to see more of Chuck though to back my opinion. There is the old series THE RIFLEMAN to check out but real life doesn’t necessarily afford me the time. LOL. A Lawrence said on 3/Aug/21Very tall man. Canson said on 3/Aug/21@Tall in the Saddle: speaking of Connors, where would you place him? You think a tweener? Strong 6’5/weak 6’6 like he’s listed Or you think he’s more just a solid 6’5”? He’s even trickier being he was an athlete so less likely to shave off the extra bit lol Tall In The Saddle said on 2/Aug/21@Canson Thanks. Yeah, times have changed. I've read some of the old time actors were even reluctant to admit to 6'3" + even though we know of a good number of prominent actors standing thereabouts who gained stardom despite their perceived "disadvantage", LOL. 6'2" seemed to be a very desirable height back in the 1940s era, many actors claiming same even though they were clearly under the mark. I guess the next favorable benchmark was 6'4" with a few actors admitting to same and looking reasonably around that mark while others claiming same looked to be in between 6'3" to 6'4". I'll just add that Chuck Connors is another guy (at least for me) whose true height surprisingly unpacks on you the more you see of the man. Canson said on 1/Aug/21@Tall in the Saddle: well said! And with Napier, interestingly enough he’s even listed 6’6 on Google. That’s after claiming 6’5”. Funny that we are in an era now where 6’5 has become acceptable and desired. You see 6’2 guys like the Rock that claim(Ed) it lol. Napier may have known he was 6’6 and knocked an inch off deliberately. I will say that even with a 6’1.75 Connery being possible that Napier still looks 6’6. You said that well a very tall man that we never truly appreciated how tall he was Tall In The Saddle said on 31/Jul/21@Canson I don't always have the height radar on. Seeing Napier in Batman I just thought, yeah, tall guy but didn't really appreciate exactly how tall he was. Yeah, I wouldn't like to have to bet large money on who was taller between Connery and Hackman but at the same time I don't think we have any better evidence to actually settle such a bet. Only sufficient evidence to call them pretty much even I guess. Canson said on 30/Jul/21@Tall in the Saddle and Hong: interesting. Yea In that pic he definitely looks 6’6 like both of you alluded to. Connery’ s full 6’2 is debatable but he can look it imho. Then again he can look a hair under at times too. It’s funny and Tall in the Saddle and I have discussed before about Connery and Hackman. That one is touch and go imho Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 29/Jul/21Sinclair, I think Putter could have been 6ft2 as well...there's no decent scenes of him and Connery standing together but he towers over Bruce. 6ft1½ minimum. He's a sloucher as well... David Tang said on 23/Jul/216'2.125. rob how tall do you think he was before he died. i think he was 6ft. also, what percentile is 6ft for males? Editor Robhe wasn't seen much in last few years, but could have been down towards 6ft range by his last year. Sinclair said on 18/Jul/21Rob, would you say Putter Smith was closer to 6’1” or 6’2”? It is plausible Bruce Glover was only 5’9” when compared to 5’11” Robert Wagner but that could make Putter Smith more 6’1” than 6’2”, as I saw roughly four inches between them in Diamonds Are Forever. I don’t think Smith was any taller than 6’2” Sean Connery and in the only scene good for their height comparison, when Connery walks past Smith and Glover carrying the urn, if anything, I would have guessed Sean a touch taller than Smith. Editor RobI'd really need to rewatch some of it again, I will get round to it Dr Decker said on 17/Jul/21Peak 6-2. Definitely Hong said on 16/Jul/21@TallIn The Saddle,Yeah in that pic Napier looks easley 6ft6 compared with 6ft2 Connery. Tall In The Saddle said on 10/Jul/21@Hong@Canson Check this still for another perspective of Napier and Connery. Notice Napier breaking posture a bit with bent right leg. He's a bit closer to camera and there maybe a slight framing tilt in his favor. Otherwise, fully straight I'm guessing he would be easily looking over the top of Connery's head. I have Sean just shy of 6'2". That's just an opinion. For those who have Sean at 6'2" or a touch above, I would think from this photo they would calculate Napier to be 6'6 1/2" at the very least. Perhaps even closer to the 6'7" mark. LOL, I never appreciated how tall "Alfred" really was. Napier was in Big Jim McClain which starred Wayne and Arness. I wonder if there are any stand up scenes with any combination of them together. Click Here Hong said on 8/Jul/21@Canson Napier did on many occasions discribe himself as 6ft5 but he does look more 6ft6 to me in comparison to Connery,maybe he was 6ft5.5 and just rounded down? Canson said on 6/Jul/21@Hong: I wonder if Napier wasn’t really just a strong 6’5 or weak 6’6 guy. Aka a 6’6 out of bed or 6’6 flat an hour out of bed. He claimed 6’5” and if we saw him with someone who’s height was verified, he didn’t usually come out at 6’6” at least imho. Maybe he was a 197cm range guy or a 196-197 guy who got listed 6’6” which is par for the course here being some 6’6 guys aren’t really 6’6” afternoon height Hong said on 6/Jul/21Click Here Here's Sean with 6ft6 listed Alan Napier. Arch Stanton said on 3/Jul/21Rik Van Nutter reminded me of Clint Eastwood in height and hair in Thunderball, Connery looked about 2 inches shorter. Hong said on 2/Jul/21Click Here the guy beside Sean is Rick Van Nutter he is listed as 6ft4. Tall In The Saddle said on 25/Jun/21@Hong Yeah, that's right. Connery simply looked older with a prematurely receding hairline adding to the illusion but as he aged I think his appearance eventually matched nicely with his age. I think Clint E held his age well up to point but then seemed to age somewhat rapidly. You can only hold back Father Time for so long I guess. Funny, based on Moore taking over Bond, they used to suggest animosity between Connery and Moore when in fact they were very good friends along with Michael Caine. A drinking night out with those three would've been a hoot. Hong said on 23/Jun/21@Tall In The Saddle,Connery did seem older than Moore but in fact was 3 years younger. Tall In The Saddle said on 16/Jun/21@QM I grew up during the Moore 007 era, at the time he was all I knew re Bond. I did a swap with a kid in primary school for a 007 ring. It was one of those rings that displayed “007” and then a picture of Bond when you tilted it. The picture was of Sean Connery. I didn’t know who he was and thought, as compared to Moore’s relatively youthful appearance, who’s this old guy? I’ve been duped! LOL. Wish I was more careful and held on to it. IMO, Sean was the best 007 but no indictment on Moore who played the role well in his own way. Sinclair said on 16/Jun/21Rob, how tall would you say Joseph Wiseman was? I’d go with 6’1”, he was close to Connery’s height in Dr. No and had about an inch on 6’0” Alex Cord in Stiletto. There are many 6’0” listings for Wiseman but I believe these are too low. Editor Robhe appeared with Kirk Douglas once and really didn't seem over 6ft, but yeah with Connery he somehow could pass for nearer 6ft 1... QM6'1.5"QM said on 12/Jun/21He was 189.5-187.5 cm (morning / evening). The Great Bond. Cold-blooded. Strong. Tall. But my favorite is Roger Moore: Sarcastically smiling comic-killer Bond ;) Tall In The Saddle said on 2/Jun/21@Canson I agree Connery could look a very solid 6’2” at times. The photo with Atkinson linked by Hong testifies to that. The photo might be a bit misleading as to Connery’s true advantage over Rowan given angle and Atkinson’s reduced posture but there is an available clip from the movie on YouTube and while Connery doesn’t hold quite as much advantage over Atkinson it’s still enough for a 6’2” estimate IMO. The advantage he holds is similar to that held by Hugh Laurie over Atkinson. Hugh Laurie is listed at 6’2 1/4” on this site which is reasonably justified IMO. Canson said on 28/May/21@Viper: he could actually look 6’2”. Maybe at worst he fell just under the Mark to 6’1.75 or 6’1 7/8” Hong said on 27/May/21Click Here Here's Sean with 5ft11.25 listed Rowan Atkison. viper said on 24/May/21Not quite 6-2 6-1.5 Tall In The Saddle said on 24/May/21I dunno. There aren’t any decent stills from the actual movie but if you watch Darby O’Gill and the Little People, it seems Sean, at best, is just on par with costar Kieron Moore who is listed as 6’1 1/2”. In some scenes Sean could look a touch shorter but possibly posture related. I mean it’s possible Sean had a slight edge that couldn’t be discerned but I still feel Sean was an all but 6’2” guy, meaning very close but not quite. There also stills seems to be the mantra that he was taller than Caine but little evidence to back it. The only time I saw Sean hold advantage over Caine was in the TMWWBK and I’ll admit, though slight, the advantage was clear in that instance at least. Joey Diaz said on 16/May/21This man was a legit 6’2 in his day. Without a doubt Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/May/21Sylvya, I agree...Sean looked 6ft2 range into his 60's, went from 188-189cm zone to 187-188cm worst case...and still looked over 6ft1 around 15 years ago. His loss was gradual, like Caine Sylvya Ford said on 30/Apr/21he needs an upgrade he is 6ft 2.25 Tall In The Saddle said on 13/Apr/21Yeah, Ali was very funny when he was younger, fresher and original. In later years he got into some heavy recycling of old jokes. I don’t how many different opponents managed to shake his kinfolk in Africa. LOL. His “Total eclipse of the Sonny” re Liston was a good line but his cornerman Drew Bundini had a hand in a few of those. . When he fought Cooper the first time in Wembley he wore a crown into the ring and said “You’ve got a Queen, you need a King!”. Even little old ladies interviewed on the street pleaded to ‘Enry to knock the big mouth out. LOL. Ali talked the fight up after the fact saying even Cleopatra was there (Liz Taylor). He said her presence distracted him and that’s how he got caught by the left hook. Yes, very funny man back in the day. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 13/Apr/21@Tall In The Saddle: stand up comedian though...definitely had potential. Tall In The Saddle said on 9/Apr/21Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Apr/21 Ali would be a dreadful actor.....no offence. LOL. I'm not going to disagree. He did do some acting. Let's just say, he was a great boxer. Made Jim Brown look like Olivier. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 8/Apr/21Ali would be a dreadful actor.....no offence. Tall In The Saddle said on 7/Apr/21The first shot of Connery and Poitier has too much off centre stuff going on to make any sort of comparison. Great photo though. The second shot actually has them appear basically even. Anyway in the overall scheme of things from what I’ve seen Poitier would have the edge on Sean. Alongside young Ali, Poitier looked near on par but Muhammad might’ve held the slightest of edges. Re Poitier, Ali said he would’ve gone into acting except for the fact that there was already a great looking black actor in Hollywood. LOL, at least one time Ali was not fixated on himself as being the prettiest! Could you imagine a young Ali in GUESS WHO’S COMING TO DINNER? Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 1/Apr/21Arch, I think Connery hung around 6ft2 right up to the 90's...but you could argue he was a weaker 6ft2 in those days compared to the 60's-70's where he looked more like a solid/strong 6ft2. Heston, Poitier and Freeman were probably 6ft2½ guys so yeah they would've edged Connery Here's a couple of photos of Sean and Sidney, one when they were both at peak, the other later on Click Here Click Here The first one's a bit awkward but overall Sidney appears to be the taller one...there aren't any photos of Sean with Morgan or Charlton Canson said on 31/Mar/21@Arch: I don’t think a strong 6’2 either but also not a strong 6’1. I’d say right at 6’2” peak height or maybe a hair under at worst. Same with Hackman Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 30/Mar/21Strong 6ft1 in his 70's Arch Stanton said on 29/Mar/21I never thought Connery looked a strong 6'2 either. A guy like Sidney Poitier or Morgan Freeman or Charlton Heston is what you'd call a strong 6'2 looking guy. I do think 6'2 or slightly under is most likely. viper said on 28/Mar/21He looked a strong 6-1, not a strong 6-2 Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 27/Mar/21Rob, could Putter Smith get a page? I'd put him at 6ft2...looked tall but I can't remember if he shared any real screen time with Connery where you can compare them....he's mainly a blues player who Guy Hamilton discovered by accident in a Beverly Hills club....obviously saw potential right away though...the dodgy skullet hairdo, moustache and glasses naturally made for a creepy Bond villain....the height helped aswell...he definitely had a good few inches on Bruce Glover a.k.a Mr. Wint (father of Julian Glover) who I reckon was 5ft9 range peak (listed 5ft10 in place, not as sure on that though), I'd consider giving him a page aswell....whenever I think of Diamonds Are Forever, the two of them holding hands in the desert are the first thing that come to mind and the haunting music as well... Sonnecker said on 26/Mar/21Sean Connery saved considerably his height from decrease, probably helped by a good genetic. For most of his life he looked a strong 6'2", considering his slouching posture in many roles. More 189 than 188. In his later years he still looked well over 6'1"... Jug said on 23/Mar/21@Ian C. -- Connery might be an Irish name. So he was Scots-Irish essentially. Not sure what you mean by Celts and Gaels, though. Celts, Gaels, Gauls, etc are all the same people (these are just variations of the same word). They settled in different islands but all originated in continental Europe (hence France was once known as Gaul--and Brittany is named after the Celtic Brits who would later populate the British Isles). Not sure if the Picts were Celts or not but the Anglo-Saxons are definitely a different ethnic group, having originated in Denmark. They settled in Britain in the Middle Ages. Anyways, I would still give Connery 6'1.5 (to Michael Caine's 6'2, having given The Man Who Would Be King another look). Ian C. said on 18/Mar/21Although Connery was a Scot, his parents (or at least his father) were Irish. (Celts and Gaels are probably pretty much alike anyway.) I have heard that Scots are either short tough guys or tall, burly caber-throwers.

I am a Canadian, and we're the most prone to strange, whimsical opinions that can't be supported by real world research. JamesFreakingBond said on 17/Mar/21Ok so I know that Connery was a solid 6'2 in his prime. But is it just me, or did he look a little under the 6'2 mark at times in YOLT? Ik he probably lost a bit of height by DAF, but there were times in YOLT where Connery didn't strike me as a solid 6'2 compared to how I saw him in Dr no-Thunderball. Again, maybe it's just me. Connery was also 37 at the time of YOLT, so it's very unlikely he lost any height. Maybe bad posture on his end or just a bad estimate on my end. Sinclair said on 17/Mar/21Rob, how tall would you say Putter Smith is? In Diamonds Are Forever, Smith seemed a similar height range to Connery. I could believe 6’2” for both. Editor Robclose to Sean's height looks a good shout Tall In The Saddle said on 14/Mar/21Actually I think the actual problem is many people say Connery was taller than Caine but no one is producing any vision to uphold that opinion. I myself linked a clip from the THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING. It’s the only fair evidence I’ve seen supporting Connery holding an edge over Caine. Otherwise it’s not so apparent and there are some pics which even suggest Caine holding the edge but the angles aren’t perfect. Jtm said on 13/Mar/21The problem is stiggles he was taller than Caine. Steven Stinson said on 20/Feb/21Rob how tall do you think Sean was before his death? 6ft2 Peak anyway Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 9/Feb/216ft1 peak is laughable...looked comfortably above that even 12-15 years ago stefkat said on 28/Jan/21Rob how much shorter is the man on the left ? Click Here Editor RobConnery will have lost a bit of height by then, he could be 4 inches taller stiggles said on 26/Jan/21No more than 6ft 1 in his prime.. much the same as Michael Caine.. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Jan/21I think he held on to 6ft2 throughout The Untouchables, Presidio and Last Crusade years....heck even in The Rock he still looked it! The5'11Dude said on 12/Jan/21Solid 6'2 in his peak, I think he was the tallest of all the James Bond actors, with Dalton close behind. By the time of Indiana Jones, The Untouchables, and The Rock, I think Sean still pulled off 6'1 range. Jac poitier said on 9/Jan/21How tall is that for a Scotsman? What's the average height in his country? I'd say among the most famous Scottish actors (McGregor, Rob Carlyle, McAvoy, Cumming, all about 5'9 or under), he's by far the tallest one. Editor RobThe average height of Scottish men is still about 5ft 9. There's a page of Scottish Actors on this site and the average is 5ft 10. Tall In The Saddle said on 5/Jan/21@Hong Another great pic and a strong case for about 6’2” for Connery after allowing for some height loss for Grant. One star on the other side of peak and the other heading toward his own mega stardom. Hong said on 1/Jan/21Click Here Here's Sean with 6ft1 listed Cary Grant Rory said on 30/Dec/20If you watch the film Anderson Tapes you'd see that Connery has at least 1.5 inches on Walken. Tall In The Saddle said on 29/Dec/20@pjk Reasonably, more than one photo is required to estimate. There's not many pics of Connery and Walken together and of what there is, they're not great for estimation. While Walken might appear to scratch up well next to Sean, as per multiple photos, Walken was shorter than Voight and Connery was taller than Voight. Sean def. was notably taller than 6 foot even but I do suspect that Walken stood a little better than 6 feet himself anyway. pjk said on 20/Dec/20Same height as christopher walken (6ft flat). Just searched photo of them together. that translates to 2" more on screen ( unless you tell the truth like christopher ). 6'2" is nonsense. Tall In The Saddle said on 18/Dec/20Recently caught Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. Villain Julian Glover is listed as 6'2". In different scenes, Connery and Glover appeared to hold the same height advantage over Harrison Ford. Notably, in other scenes, Connery "collapsed" his posture somewhat giving the illusion that Ford was closer in height than he actually was. Not many scenes with Glover and Connery actually together. In the final scene, it appears Glover is standing on slightly higher ground so he does appear taller. However, he walks around both Connery and Ford and when he does so, he actually then appears a touch shorter than Connery as he walks behind him. I've seen photos in which Connery appears clearly taller than Moore while in others there is less to choose between them. Any chance Roger wore lifts in his later years? Jug said on 4/Dec/20Unpopular opinion: I really don't think more than 6'1.5. Standing next to strong 6'2 actors (like Peter Boyle in Outland) he was slightly shorter. Donald Sutherland looked more than two inches taller in The Great Train Robbery. He looked the same height as Michael Caine (also probably less than 6'2) in The Man Who Would Be King. Looked slightly taller than Roger Moore (never more than 6'1) in photos of them together. Martin Landau looked the same height or slightly taller in Meteor, as did Karl Malden. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Dec/20Somewhere in that 188-188.5cm area when young is still my verdict. That Mr. Universe measurement of almost 6ft2½ sounds like a legit barefoot (Earlier in the day though probably). I can believe big Sean in his 30’s could have hit 6ft3 first thing. Through 80’s-90’s still generally looked 6ft2 but more likely was on the weaker side of it, could look more 187cm. Still looked 6ft1-2 range 15 years ago I’d have said...did better than most of his contemporaries who have shipped 3in+ Editor RobAfter 16 years I found a direct quote from Connery. In 1965 he said he was "about six feet two inches". "about" can cover below...or even above sometimes. Lenad 5ft9.75in said on 1/Dec/20I think a weak 188cm or even strong 188cm is a good guess for a young connery. Tall In The Saddle said on 20/Nov/20@Lenad Yeah, I would agree at least 6'1.5". Over many comparisons averaged out, I've pegged Sean at 6'1.75" max. for a while but I have to admit there are some comparisons in their own right which can suggest a solid 6'2" (as per my prev. post). It always comes down to the actual heights of the people whose height is being compared. Say Gene Hackman. While Sean might've edged Hackman in reality I also don't think Gene was a full 6'2" himself. I haven't seen the movie OUTLAND but some observers suggest that Peter Boyle slightly edged Sean out and Boyle is listed 6'2 1/4" on this site, which seems a nice fit between them but possibly the absolute height listings are incorrect if Sean himself wasn't the full 6'2". Personally, my vibe for Boyle was 6'2" at absolute max. and I personally haven't seen enough visual evidence to say if he was or wasn't taller than Connery. Anyway, just one person's opinion. Vincent Caleb said on 20/Nov/20@Arch Stanton: He was incredible in the untouchables. Very deserving of his Oscar. Lenad 5ft9.75in said on 20/Nov/20Its been said the James Bond tailors had him at 6'1 1/2 barefoot. And he was consistently described as 6'2 and he looked pretty tall. Maybe he got measured at 6'1 1/2 with a bit of bad posture, but I would say he was at least the 6'1 1/2 that was claimed. Arch Stanton said on 16/Nov/20I didn't say he wasn't a good actor Ian.... He wanted to avoid being typecast, that was his main reason for branching out... Ian C. said on 10/Nov/20Connery was an accomplished actor Arch. Name me a move where he turned in an indifferent performance. He's got a few nonBonds where he was playing real characters: The Anderson Tapes, The Wind and the Lion, The Hill, Robin and Marian. There are probably others. He did care about money-that's why he became a tax exile from the U.K., but you didn't catch him loafing through movies on the strength of his persona, like John Wayne or Clint Eastwood. (Although Eastwood had become a very good director, it must be said.) If Connery had a personal weakness you might argue that it was women. His wives had to bear a lot of infidelity, it is said. But you didn't catch him getting drunk in public, or eating himself into obesity like Gerard Depardieu or Marlon Brando or Oliver Reed. All in all a well-disciplined, serious man. Tall In The Saddle said on 10/Nov/20I think Connery was reasonably invested in the artsy side of acting. BOND was making him oodles of money and he could've sat on that for longer than he did. Sean wanted to break out and branch out, expressly seeking release to make other, more meaningful films, with the view to ultimately leaving 007 behind. Of course Sean was NEVER going to make any movie for free, notwithstanding the level of job satisfaction. He squeezed as much dime as possible out of every role, as was his right. Dual purposed, so to speak. Of course, they're currently playing BOND reruns. It's actually funny to see the original 007 using assorted villainesses to shield himself from bullets, etc. and then discarding them like rag dolls, particularly with the juxtaposed image of Mike Myers exaggerating same in his Austin Powers movies. Arch Stanton said on 10/Nov/20Ian C. said on 7/Nov/20 One of the more interesting things about Connery is that, for most of his youth, he was poor. Before he was cast as Bond he had had a few supporting roles in movies, for which he was paid very little. He was married for the first time when he was 32, because he couldn't support a wife until he was much older than the average age of marriage for British men of his generation. He ended up so wealthy that he could give away millions of dollars. Show business is terribly cruel because it leaves people who fail within it underpaid and forgotten. Then it makes stars of some people, and makes them wealthy beyond anyone's real needs. Impression I got was that acting for Connery was more about the money and living a good life in luxury given his background. From what I've read I don't think he was overjoyed with the filmmaking process, and wasn't interested in the glamour of Hollywood. I would say Michael Caine was more an actor who took acting very seriously and treated it more like an art.

Tall In The Saddle said on 5/Nov/20Let’s not forget Sean’s brief but memorable turn in THE TIME BANDITS or his role in DARBY O’GILL AND THE LITTLE PEOPLE. Worthy to note, his costar in the latter film, Janet Munro, was pretty hot IMO. Ian C. said on 4/Nov/20So, on hearing of Connery's death, I got out the DVD collection and reviewed a few favourites. (The Wind and the Lion is the best, I think.) He seemed to take acting very seriously, and probably considered James Bond a real role, and not just a silly movie character. He played it straight, unlike Roger Moore, who just showed up, said his lines and looked pretty. What was the deal with his accent? You're Scottish, Rob. Have you ever heard anyone speak with Connery's accent? My guess is that that accent was a failed attempt at BBC-style upper class English. Editor Robyeah there will be some areas of Edinburgh with a bit similar, though I think Connery probably changed it a little from his younger years. Miss Sandy Cowell said on 4/Nov/20I thought he was great in 'Marnie'. I'm casting my mind back 15 years to how much I laughed at his drunken antics and how much they pi$$ed his neighbours off! I read about it in my Dad's Daily Express and LMAO. Sean - you will be missed. Tall Sam said on 3/Nov/20I'd add that it didn't hurt his macho reputation one bit despite it being pretty well known early on that he was a bald guy often in a hair piece. GTB172cm said on 3/Nov/20A strong 6’2 at his peak, died at strong 5’11. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 2/Nov/20We will never see his kind again. I saw photos of him about a year ago and feared the end wasn't too far, he just looked so frail and not in great health...but onscreen he is immortal and I am so jealous of those who are yet to discover this great man's work from 007 to Marnie, The Offence, The Man Who Would Be King, Hunt For Red October...even Zardoz! He was a powerhouse in every sense of the word. Arch said it best, he oozed masculinity out of every Celtic pore. Guys wanted to be him and women wanted to be with him...Connery, Hackman, Caine, Newman, Harris, O'Toole even Roger Moore to a degree...no one has come close to doing it the way they did it...legends Canson said on 2/Nov/20@Tall in the Saddle: I’m curious too. It’s very sad that a lot of celebs have passed this year. Not many from Covid, of course but the Virus has caused other issues as the hospitals are flooded and can’t otherwise house those with natural causes. 90 is impressive though Arch Stanton said on 2/Nov/20RIP indeed. He's one I've been very aware of that could die though for a long time! One of the most iconic and most admired men of the 20th century. Every teenage boy wanted to be him or a guy who would get that sort of attention from women! The way Shirley Eaton looked at him in Goldfinger!! Dictionary definition of macho/masculinity. I could imagine at times he was rude and difficult, brutally honest, but a very solid guy. I'm sure Rob and Scotland are very proud of him. Editor RobSean was the most famous Scottish actor and he will be missed by many. Hulk.23 said on 1/Nov/20RIP Sean :((( Chris Junior Hernandez 1990 said on 1/Nov/20R.I.P Sean Connery the legend and the Best James Bond ever. Tall In The Saddle said on 1/Nov/20PS - I should note that I believe the proceeds from all the lawsuits were donated to charity. Sean also donated his 1 million up front fee for DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER 1971 (ball park equivalent, 6.5 million today) to a Scottish education fund. Atop that, he also negotiated a weekly salary of $10,000 plus financing for the next two films of his choice. Sean knew only too well the value of his hard earned money and brand but was still clearly a well considered philanthropist and charitable man. Tall In The Saddle said on 31/Oct/20I'll admit, I am one to look up cause of death, even given such an advanced age. Natural curiosity. The family has not released same and, of course, there is no reason or obligation to ever do so. You only have to ask yourself would you publicize same if in the same position? His son Jason said that Sean had not been well for some time. One would hope that his final years were still of reasonable quality and it certainly seems he was surrounded by a loving and caring family. He came a very long way from very humble beginnings. A sentiment expressed in one of his BIOs always made me laugh, a childhood friend said that they were all as happy as pigs in sh*t UNTIL they were informed that they were impoverished. LOL. Also, I've read that he never lost any of the lawsuits he launched against movie producers when he felt he was being short changed or ill treated. A true Scot. Tall Sam said on 31/Oct/20RIP Sir Sean. Think my favorite of his films that are lesser known or seen are The Hill and The Man Who Would Be King, besides his legendary turns in the Bond films, Untouchables and Indiana Jones. He was always roguishly charismatic and likable despite being arrogant and rough (including with the ladies), on and off screen. The ultimate manly badass, basically. Eric W Tam said on 31/Oct/20Rest in power legend! Stood a mighty 6'2 for most of his life. Say, Rob, a peak height vs current height option was long overdue for Connery, don't you think? Xd. Vincent Caleb said on 31/Oct/20Rip. Great actor, even greater man. Miss Sandy Cowell said on 31/Oct/20I'm gutted. Such a fabulous actor and the best Bond ever. 😢 RIP Sean XXX 🕯️ (25/8/1930 - 31/8/2020) VitoCheng said on 31/Oct/20Time may take away such a great man, but I believe he will live better when he arrives in heaven. I wish to go all the way, As a 6-foot-2 man, I believe his integrity is true forever Rip for the most classic legend James Bond Sean Connery 1930-2020 Sulu2020 said on 31/Oct/20Hey Rob, when a celebrity passes away, it won't show their final height and their peak height together. These two height listings shown together on this site will only apply to older celebrities still living today. Editor RobConnery had been retired for a good few years so always just had his peak listing. When someone passes, it just goes back to the peak. Canson said on 31/Oct/20Sad news this morning. Rest In Peace grizz said on 31/Oct/20R.I.P. legend! Regarding his height, only one of the few who lost just a bit of his prime height. Classic 6'2 Johnny 181-182 cm said on 31/Oct/20RIP. He was my favorite Bond. I had a man crush on him when I was a teenager. Amazing actor. QM6'1QM said on 31/Oct/20RIP, Mister Bond. Heaven Bless You. 187 cm range as peak. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 31/Oct/20:( Can't believe it. RIP lad# 1930-2020, 188.6cm James B 172c, said on 31/Oct/20RIP Sean Best bond ever Ricky Spanish said on 31/Oct/20RIP. One of the most talented actors I have ever seen. Solid 6ft 2 Tall In The Saddle said on 24/Oct/20No recent photos to judge Connery against known height. In general, in his own right and among people, he looks to be doing a lot better than Eastwood and most likely not under 6 feet. Last solid comparison I remember was next to Andy Murray who is supposed to be about 6'2". Sean appeared to be dropping up to 1". That was back in 2012 when Sean was a sprite 82 yo. Tall In The Saddle said on 23/Oct/20There haven't been any good photos in years to estimate Connery's height though it's assumed he's lost some more since we last saw him next to someone of reasonably known height. I can only recall the Andy Murray photos and Sean might've been dropping up to 1" to Murray who was about 6'2". Those photos were in 2012 when Sean was 82 yo. Stand alone and next to people of unknown exact height, Sean looks to be holding up well in stature, not below 6 feet. IMO, on the other hand, even in stand alone photos and those next to the general public, Clint Eastwood's height loss is still very obvious. Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 22/Oct/20Hard to say really. No decent photos to gauge his current height. I wouldn't say less than 6ft though. He was still looking over 6ft1 12-15 years ago Mimi said on 19/Oct/20Rob if you were to give him a current height, do you think he's 6ft now or a bit below that? Editor RobHe's like close to 6ft flat nowadays. I think he held up quite well into his early 70's...in the last photos seen, he does look more frail, but near 90 doesn't have major kyphosis. Tall In The Saddle said on 16/Oct/20@6'3" Julian I understood where you were coming from. Thus LOL. I moved with it lightheartedly. I thought Sean's "get up" from ZARDOZ fit the wrestling theme perfectly. 6'3 Julian said on 13/Oct/20@Tall In The Saddle I was doing wrestling style commentary Tall In The Saddle said on 5/Oct/20@6'3" Julian LOL. Craig knew he was a beaten man as soon as Connery entered the arena in full ZARDOZ costume. 6'3 Julian said on 2/Oct/20@Tall In The Saddle “BAH GAWD ITS SEAN CONNERY! HE BROKE DANIEL CRAIG IN HALF!” Tall In The Saddle said on 30/Sep/20Connery has the well corroborated incident, involving gangster Johnny Stompanato, to back his reputation as a guy not to be messed with in real life. As Lana Turner's BF, a jealous Stompanato stormed onto set brandishing a gun in co star Sean's general direction. Big Tam promptly twisted the mobster's wrist forcing him to drop the weapon. Sans ultimate kill, that's some real life 007 stuff right there, neither shaken or stirred. The round robin concept of Bond v Bond is cool. PPV through the roof. For expediency, perhaps a Battle "Royale" could also suffice. I would throw in a special wild card entrant, Robert Mitchum, just for the hell of it. Phil Semple said on 22/Sep/20Connery is very tall, even in his 80s. I saw pictures of him when he was 86 years old and he towered over almost everyone in the room. I honestly think he's 6'2 even now Ian C. said on 17/Sep/20Oops. I just looked it up and Robert Shaw was English. I thought he was Irish because he played an Irishman at least four times (From Russia With Love, The Luck of Ginger Coffey, Jaws and The Sting) and he was a big, beefy guy who drank a lot. Uh, not that the Irish drink a lot. Ian C. said on 17/Sep/20The fight on the Orient Express in From Russia With Love between Bond and Donovan Grant is still one of the most violent fights in movie history. In the book, Grant is so overpowering that Bond doesn't try to fight him. He plays dead and then suddenly stabs Grant, who then bleeds to death. In the movie, Robert Shaw, who plays Grant, is introduced wearing a towel, and we are supposed to be impressed with his physique. Unfortunately we also see Connery wearing a towel later in the movie, and Connery is taller and stronger than Shaw. (Who walks with a limp.) So, if you think about it, you might say, it wasn't fair that that big Scot beat up on that smaller, slightly crippled Irishman. But it's a really mean fight though. Tall Sam said on 14/Sep/20Yeah, Connery and Craig can be so brutal, almost thuggish at times that I'm almost rooting for Bond to be bested in some of their films. Connery is always going to be the best and most quintessential Bond there was. Animus said on 12/Sep/20@Ian C Very interesting, I think you might be right. I certainly have an impression of Mr Connery as an exceptionally tough man, vastly tougher than the other Bonds. I'm not sure why, though. He certainly manages to convey a certain savage machismo (combined with a sharp mind) in many of his roles, which I mean in the best sense possible. It's an exceedingly rare quality to see in men today; today, you probably only find this combination of brute toughness and intelligence within the special forces. I just saw him in "The Untouchables" and even though he is about 57 years old in that movie, he retains a certain pugilistic, no-nonsense attitude along with great elegance, dignity and intellect. Quite an impressive man, I see no contemporary actors who can really match him on all dimensions. Ian C. said on 12/Sep/20Connery's defining moment as a physically imposing man happens in From Russia With Love, when Bond approaches Tatiana for the first time, wearing only a towel around his waist. He looks like a champion tennis player-extraordinarily lithe, graceful, muscular and strong. And six foot two. (I think he might have been 34 at that time.) None of the other Bonds had that particular collection of gifts, although Daniel Craig might have come close. I take your point, Tall Sam, that Moore was a strong man, but whatever physical gifts he had were negated by his affected, rather prissy personality. It's as if the producers of the Bond movies had decided that James Bond's single defining trait was good looks, and forgot all the other ones, such as that he was a violent thug with a license to commit murder. Tall Sam said on 11/Sep/20I was surprised to read the account of Roger Moore's shocking strength from Lee Marvin because he always struck me as the least imposing Bond. However, I've read that Marvin, despite being a tough war veteran, was kind of physically feeble and unreliable when he made The Professionals due to his alcoholism. I do think Connery would've been hard to beat by the other Bonds. Ian C. said on 9/Sep/20Here's an interesting thought experiment: Assemble all the actors who played James Bond, endow them (in a magical machine) with the physiques and physical capacities they had in their early thirties, and have them fight it out in a round robin tournament of hand-to-hand combat with no rules. Connery would win going away. He was the biggest and brawniest and meanest of all the Bonds. Craig is similarly strong, athletic and tough, but smaller than Connery. Brosnan, Lazenby and Dalton were all rather ordinary men. Moore, despite good size and strength, seemed to have no capacity for violence at all, and likely went his whole life without ever getting into so much a shoving match. Ian C. said on 8/Sep/20There was a researcher named William Sheldon, who coined the terms ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorph. Sheldon developed a three digit system for describing people's body types, and Connery's body type would have been a 254. (Never mind how that is determined, as it doesn't really matter.) Sheldon picked that body type (out of a menu of 88 possible types) as the one he considered the most advantageous overall. (Extreme mesomorphs, who are the kind of men who play professional baseball and football, are prone to heart disease and various kinds of cancer in their sixties.) So Connery living so long and in such good health may be a function of extraordinarily lucky genes. Newman said on 30/Aug/20I can see the debate about Connery's height rages on to this day. I came across the link below which I think some of you may find interesting regarding this topic: Click Here The guy on the left used to work for Darlington Council about 13-14 years ago when I worked there [he may still do]. I didn't know the fella but used to see him in a local gym in the town centre. One of my colleagues who I trained with mentioned he worked in one of our departments but was also a "Sean Connery lookalike" which made both of us s a bit. Saw this photo yesterday of him with the man himself which I'm guessing must be 10+ years old. As I say, I didn't know the fella to talk to but have stood next to him in the gym or walked past him plenty of times. I would say he is [was] between 5'11 and a half to 6ft tall. I remember he was a well built chap too; into the weights and all that. Connery looks at least 1.5-2 inches taller in the photo and broader too. I guess the real Mister Bond was the full 6ft 2 in his prime and a broad shouldered fella to boot. Certainly bigger than I thought he was. Tall In The Saddle said on 29/Aug/20Yes, the big 90 for Big Tam. Unless I am missing someone, that rounds out the big 3, following fellow nonagenarians Eastwood and Hackman. His wife is the "older" woman at 91. I love how they refer to some celebrities of similarly advanced ages as "reclusive" if they're not necessarily presenting to the paparazzi anymore. Suffice to say, Sean was never thrilled with them at any time of his life. LOL. At around 90, "reclusive" is often par for the course, not least due to age related incapacitation. Of course, Clint Eastwood is obviously an exception to the rule. This link includes pics of Sean apparently taken recently, his first time in "public" for 3 years. Looks pretty good for 90, imo.
