Normally "advertised" as 6'2", I doubt Arnold has ever been taller than 6' flat.

Posed for the Polaroid moment at the first four Arnold Classics and was taller than Arnold in each shot. I'm 6'1". And **** you, no, I don't have the pics. That was more than 20 years ago. They're either buried in a box somewhere or on the trash heap.

Somewhere there's a box with t-shirts and autographed programs and a ****load of actual pictures. This was long before I had a digital camera. (Were digital cameras even around in '89?)

Anyone have that picture of sly walking down the sidewalk during filming where his arms were super vascular?

I'll look for it.

...

Bet this is the one you meant.



Does he look like he's wearing a wig here?



A day at the beach!



And check out the movie poster hysteria:

Damn! Sly is looking freaking jack3d and veiny as hell! Pass some of that HGH over here

Wasn't he the bad guy in the Punisher movie? If I remember he was pretty good in that.

There's a whole website devoted to the topic of Arnold's height. I believe he was right around 6'2" when he was competing and has since shrunk an inch or two (to about 1/2 an inch over 6') which is not uncommon. Some people lose more height than others with a tendency to more height loss in longer torsos due to spine compression.

I am right at 5'10" in the morning when I first get up but at the end of the day I am right about 5'9.5" so we all shrink and over time that really starts to stick. There's no doubt in my mind Arnold was right at 6'2" at his prime. Just watch Pumping Iron and look at the other competitors. Louie looks just like you would expect a guy of his height would be next to a 6'2" guy like Arnold.

probably going to see this, first one was pretty fun to watch

This and Batman are on my "I Don't give a shit what's going on, I'm THERE!" list.

I guess Van Damme learned his lesson after the first movie

Jebus... Sly is lookin' crazy vascular these days! I gotta get what he's on lol

Sorry to burst your bubble but Arnold was 6' at best in his prime. My dad is 6' and he met arnold a few times back in the 1980's and he said He was as tall or taller then Arnold. BTW my dad was 6' when he was in the Army back in the 1950's so the shrinking with age thing does not work since my pops is 15 years older then Arnold.

This.

I don't know GFR's father but I do know I stood beside Arnold in 1989. Taller. 1990. Taller. '91? You guessed it. Taller! And the same story in '92.

I'm sure height does vary or shrinking varies from person to person but I'm still 6'1" at nearly 50 and can hardly believe Arnold—the clear genetic superior between us—had shrunk two inches by the time we posed for that first Polaroid snapshot.

Schwarzenegger would have been just shy of 42 in '89.
