eric 1 did kane really tell you he was 6'8.5'' - 6'9'' because kane looks to be 6'10'' in most areas he was even 1'' taller than the 6'9'' sid vicious

You guys are all correct. Thats me in the pic with kane . Before we took the pic together he was sitting down i asked him if he can stand up for a pic. He did and before i took the pic with him he was standing straight up and the top of my head only came up to the very bottom of his chin. He slouched into the pic with me to get into the pic or else he would of been half way out of the pic. He had on the same exact type of shoe i had on . Regular dress shoes. I am 5ft11 and change. By the way look at the window behind us its bigger than a door way and you can see kanes head is clears it.

Guys Kane is not 6ft 10 !!! Maybe he appears that tall and the Picture with Big Ben who is listed at 6ft 5 Kane looked 2 to 2.5 inches taller than Ben...Glen Jacobs told Eric he was 6ft 8.5

I think Jacobs's right.Uf Kane stood up straight he'll be taller than Eric a head,a giant head(11~12inches) so I would give him 6'10"

look at the pic above that guy is 6ft or a little under and if kane stood up straight and tilted his straight he'd have an easy 9'' - 10'' tower so yeah 6'9'' - 6'10'' is kanes height he looks 6'7.5'' becuse of not stood up straight

When I was much younger, 13-16 I thought Kane was a legit 6'11 and actually thought that up until a few years ago. Back then I always heard his real height was 6'7 and I'm like no way.

I used to think Kane was a legit 6'10-1/2", since that is what JR constantly referred to him as despite being his being listed as 7'0" by the WWE. In his original footwear, I think he looked every bit of 6'10.5" on TV.

Kane can certainly pass for 6'10" or 7' at times, but I think 6'8.5" is closer.

Even if he sometimes just look 6ft7 I am still defending the 6ft8,5 barefoot.
In his old wrestling gear I think he was close to 6ft11. Weird, you are over 2,00 m and towering over almost everybody and what have you to do, you have to wear lifts thats really funny.

Kane's head is a little too small for him to have any significant acromegaly IMO. Big Show's head is much larger, and Show has acromegaly (had it, rather, coz it was treated). Even Khali's head is considerably bigger. Kane just looks like a naturally tall guy to me.

Def taller, but hard to say exactly how much because neither one stands tall and are in constant motion. Kane is obviously taller though, probably 2" taller absolute minimum. I don't think a 1" difference would be enough to definitively notice in that situation.

Here's a video from Kane when he had the half mask, I don't think he wore lifts during this period and he's at his leanest here. He comes in at about the 1 min mark, you can see he's def taller than Test

I gotta agree with Vegas and Ray, UT and Kane are very close in height, I think most .5" difference between the two, in my opinion in Kane's favor.

DaMan; i use Macromedia Fireworks (super program, so much better than that microsoft rubbish)
Thorgrim; kane is very fat now, he has a big belly on him. i'd say he is close to, if not slightly over 300lb as of today. When i met him in 2004 he was no more than 270-280lb.
KingNick seeing as the top of Sids head is missing in that photo its impossible to tell, but up to the eyelevel they look very very close in height (personally i don't see more than half an inch between them). As i mentioned before if you put sid, taker and kane together at their peaks in the ring barefoot, you could barely tell the difference i think.
Ray; from what i saw in person, kane and taker looked very close in height as of April 2006. My brother thought taker looked slightly taller; i thought kane was slightly taller so there you go :D

Nice comparison pic Vegas; in my eyes, that even more cements my belief that Kane and Taker are about the same height. Only a very minimal difference between their heights since Taker seemed to have Sid by around an inch as does Kane.

Vegas, I don't know what to think of that photo. You think Kane is 6'7" to 6'7.5" right? Wouldn't that make Sid 6'6" to 6'6.5"? I really don't think Sid is that short. I think he's minimum of 6'7", probably more like 6'7.5". Then again, like you were saying, it could be post leg break, I don't know. If Sid ever comes back to WWE maybe they'll wrestle.
Thorgrim, I agree man. I do think he was under 300lbs for a short time when he returned with the half mask, but by the time he lost the mask I think he's been 300 or over.

the top of sids head is missing so we can't do a proper comparison but as you can see up to the eyes both sid and kane look roughly the same height with kane just shading it by about 1/8 of an inch or so.

thing you need to take into account with eudy though is; was the photo taken pre or post leg break. Eudy must have lost height after that break. I will do a comparison photo of sid/kane to see what we get

"Actually, Kane and Sid compared to the kid looks VERY close. He comes up to the bottom of their chins."
I disagree. In Sid's pic, Sid's head is closer to the camera than the guy's is and he comes within roughly .25" of Sid's bottom lip. In Kane's pic, Kane isn't favored like Sid is and the and the guy still looks to be .75" or so short of Kane's bottom lip. Kane's clearly taller in my view, probably by close to an inch, if not a full inch.

They try to portray his character as somewhat deformed so it probably leads to the illusion that he has acromegaly. But he seems to lack the distorted features. Giant head, exaggerated features. Just strikes me as a really big guy.

Hard to say if Kane has acromegaly. The pic with Eric shows a protruding brow, which is characteristic of the disease, though it could just be enhanced by the lighting. He does not look like he has an enlarged jaw or hands though he could have a mild form of the disease. It's always possible that he's been taking human growth hormone and basically has self-inflicted acromegaly.

Ray, you're right, those pics are indeed better of Kane's boots, especially since you can see his ankle placement in pic# 45 -- which also proves he is no longer using internal lifts. Kane's feet look slanted because the front of his boots are very thin, thinner than most wrestling boots (including Takers) while he appears to have a thickish heel. Who knows the reasoning for his boot design, but I believe a good pair of Docs would give him more actual height boost. As I'm sure you know, a .5" heel advantage does not boost height by .5", especially if the front of the boot is also thinner.
As far as Kane being "cool" or a "shadow" of Taker, what does that have to do with anything? I wasn't aware this was a popularity contest.

Da Man: pic 45 of 49 on the link you posted gives you a better pic of Kane's boot; Taker started wearing a boot with a slightly larger sole right around when he became champ (still not as big as Kane's). I always thought aside from Kane's heel, the inside of his boots looked a little suspect - could be wrong but he looks like he's on a slant all the time which is why he can't run or maneuever as well in the ring. I still feel Kane gets a bigger boot advantage than Undertaker; maybe not 1.5" but I'd say definitely .5" on the heel and maybe more if he has a lift inside. There's a reason Taker and Kane are both listed the same height of 6'7.5" here - becuase they both are around the same height - around the 6'8" mark. Kane is cool; I like Kane but he is a shadow/clone of the Undertaker and as the saying goes - a clone is never as good as the original which is definitely true here.

He's on the list of famous people with acromegaly. You don't think? I think he easily has the head/facial features, frame size and height. It's generally nowhere near as obvious as an extreme case like Andre the Giant -- Shawn Bradley had acromegaly and you probably wouldn't have known, and he's a giant among giants.
Spike, acromegaly is gigantism. It can be worsened by wrestling promoters, as Rob alluded to...

Ray, if you honestly think Kane's current gear is giving him a 1.5" height advantage OVER Taker's current gear, you are WAY off. That sounds like a desperate attempt to maintain that Calaway is as tall or taller than Jacobs.
Kane's current boot (picture 9 of 49): Click Here Undertaker's current boot (pictures 7 and 19 of 41): Click Here
Then there's the fact that in 1999 Kane only looked 2" shorter than the Big Show in a direct staredown while today he typically looks 4" shorter and any rational person will begin to realize that nowadays, Kane isn't using much lift.

Vegas: you're forgetting Kane has a bigger boot/heel than Taker so IF there is a 1-1.5" difference between Kane vs Taker's height against Batista it is cancelled out by Kane's larger boot. Kane and Taker are roughly the same height. It almost looks like the same difference between Taker and Kane vs Batista's height.

funny thing i saw carlito in a chicago hotel from about 20 feet away and he didn't look short at all. On tv he only looks 5'8-5'9; this is in complete contrast to chris benoit who really looked short to me in New York from about 20 feet away but always looked about 5'10 on tv.

2.5 inches or so between Ben and Kane.
Vegas, it is incredible how large Show's upper torso and head are, compared to Kane's (or basically anyone's). Seriously, his nipples are barely higher than Kane's, but he is several inches taller by the time we get to the tops of their heads. I calculated Show to be 6% taller (about 5 inches) with Kane's head tilted slightly. If he straightens his head, Show will have about 4 - 4.5 inches on him. Puts Kane right around the 6'7" mark.

Big Ben is basically 6'5 though, you would need a microscope to tell the difference between 6'4.8 and 6'5, and if all this stuff about morning and evening heights is real then he is probably over 6'5 at some time of the day.
Kane is about 13" or so taller than my short friend but he is leaning like in the photo with the big show i posted so he is probably losing close to an inch. He would come out at around 6'7 or so in that photo too i would suspect.
Looking at the big show/kane photo again its clear to see where all of big shows height come from (his shoulders and his head). Kane and show are level up to the pec/nipple area and from there wight gains an extra 4"+ over jacobs which is incredible, no wonder people are out estimating this guy. He has the legs and lower torso of a 6'7 man.

Vegas, I think Masters is 6'3 probably. He looks close to his billed 6'4 too.
Ben's hat could be getting in the way a bit but its 3 inches tops between Kane and Ben though. We know he was officially measured at 6'4.8 but really thats pretty much 6'5 or a mm under which is weird to argue over.

In that 2005 photo Big shows left nipple and kane's right nipple are identical in location. DaMan if kane is lower there then KANE MUST have longer legs and a bigger upper body than big show. The only wrestler standing at the top of that platform is carlito (and he is losing height from that due to the fact he is further from the camera); show, kane and masters are side by side basically.
BTW Chris Masters looks about 6'3 there next to kane and show.

Vegas, the eyeline method is skewed slightly in your friend's favor due to Kane's chin tucking. Their heads are definitely not being held in the same position. I could easily see Kane looking .25" - .5" taller than he already does in that photo with a head position identical to your friend's.
Remove the hair and beanie from Roethlisberger and there is 3" between them, I am basically 99% positive on that one.

Da Man; my friend is not looking up and kane is not looking down in that photo (i posted the video to prove that); kane is slightly closer to the camera although in the photo but i don't think that is affecting the photo much (i took the photo by the way). Kanes posture didn't change during the photo either, you can also see proof of that in the video.
I dont see 3" between ben and kane either (more like 2.5" or so). Kane is between 6'7 and 6'7.5 barefoot. Rob is not going to change his mind on this one, basically the case is as good as closed. 6'7.5 is fair enough as it keeps nearly everyone happy.

In the Team Raw photo the leaning Kane is 6 inches shorter than Big Show (note that his head is bigger than ordinary). Without leaning there would be 4.5 - 5 inches difference. So Big Show is 7', Kane is 6'7.25 - 6'7.5''.
In the picture with Big Ben, Kane wears his wrestling boots, with normal footwear their real difference would be 2.5 inches.

I see 3" between Roethlisberger and Kane, I think Ben's "afro" (the only word I can think of to describe his hair) underneath the beanie is throwing some off. It looks like there is a 3.5" difference between Kane and Vegas friend. However, Kane doesn't appear to be standing as erect as Vegas' friend, (Vegas' friend is looking upwards while Kane has his chin tucked and is looking downwards a bit) so there looks to be 3.75" - 4" taking into account posture, IMO.
I'm still thinking Kane is 6'7.75" - 6'8".

If Kane was 6'8.5'' then Edge is a legit 6'4'', Big Show is over 7ft and Khali is almost his billed height of 7'3'', well they are not. So please stop pushing Editor Rob to boost him, because he is one of the right-listed wrestlers on this site.
About Kane's weight I think for most of his career he was a little bit under 300lbs, but recently it looks that he has put some fat to his body, so now he is easily over 300lbs.

Jonas, Imposter Kane (freakin' deacon) has always drove me crazy with his height. A while back we were discussing this. There was one site that gave him a 6'3" credit, and then it got booted off the net, and every other site he was on (including foreign sites) gave him a 6'7" credit. I don't think he's 6'3" because even with lifts I don't think it's possible to get away with billing a 6'3" gyuy 6'7". He may be 6'5" and 6'7" in his boots, that seems more realistic to me. I just don't know tho.

in the picture, that guy (who is almost 6feet tall) is dwarfed totally.... in the evidence of that pic, if kane were to stand up totally straight and chin up, he would be nearly a full head taller.... the average man has a 10-12 inch head... kane must have at least 11 or so.... on the evidence of this pic alone kane looks like he could be EVERY bit of 6'8++... on the evidence of this pic alone (and im leaving my meeting with this man out of the argument here) he looks massive beside this guy, he looks like he could be anything up to 6'8-6'9 here. Just over 6'7 is BS quite frankly. Imagine he straightened up and lifted his head.... theres not far off a foot difference here.

I've always argued that UT and Kane are very close in height and if any of them is taller, it's no more than an inch difference, and it's Kane. Fonzie's post makes a lot of sense. With all due respect Fonzie, it's almost impossible to prove what you're writing, I could have easily written the same post, I just happen to agree with your opinion here and you give me no other reason to not believe you. I think UT is 6'7" - 6'8" and Kane is 6'8" - 6'9". I think Kane is somewhere around 6'10" in his wrestling boots.
Vegas, I know your agrument is that you met the guy in person. You've had pics up in the past of your 6'4" friend with Kane. You have some of the best pics I've seen on the site, the only think I disagree with are your estimates, I think there was around a 4" difference between Kane and your friend.
I've always argued that UT and Kane are very close in height and if any of them is taller, it's no more than an inch difference, and it's Kane. Fonzie's post makes a lot of sense. With all due respect Fonzie, it's almost impossible to prove what you're writing, I could have easily written the same post, I just happen to agree with your opinion here and you give me no other reason to not believe you. I think UT is 6'7" - 6'8" and Kane is 6'8" - 6'9". I think Kane is somewhere around 6'10" in his wrestling boots.

ive met kane at a wwe autograph signing in nottinghan uk 2006 at a house show. and id say hes about 6"9 without his wrestling boots which have thought to have a 2 inch lift in them. to be honest who cares about his height hes a freaking machine.

no way is kane 6'10" maybe with bigger lifts like when he went face to face with the big show,and their only looked like a 2 inch height difference.kane is nothing more than 6'7" to 6,8" max imo.

if kane was truly 5" taller than edge (whom i have at 6'3 but never saw face to face) then ya i could then believe 6'8. However i still see 4" between kane and edge in that video putting him at Robs listed height of 6'7-6'7.5"

edge is a legit 6'4. that would put kane at 6'8 or 6'8.5.. edge is a big guy. his as tall as randy orton and ortons around 6'4 to 6'5 so there you go. it looked like kane had about 4 to 4.5 inchs on edge at the most standing straight.

actually the camera angle made it look like 6" at the start and kanes leaning made it look closer to 2.5" by the end but in reality it was about 4" Click Here if you pause at exactly the 8.01 mark you get the exact amount of height difference between kane and edge.

Anonymous, ah, but Edge was holding his head up the entire sequence, looking up to Kane. When Kane did likewise, Edge did not even come up to Kane's eyeline. Kane looked at least 5.5" taller than Edge in that sequence, IMO. I thought I saw 6" several times. Edge's posture was excellent.

A colossus like Kane wearing lifts?! No way.
When Kane held his head up you can't judge what is the real difference, but when he held his head straight, the difference was clearly 5 inches, so Kane is 6'8'' and Edge is 6'3''.

Malone is listed 6'9" everywhere. Regardless, we are also making alot of assumptions about those photos. How do we know Kane was wearing all, or any, of his lifts? How do we know the fan was wearing the same footwear? Etc, etc...
Also, did anyone see Smackdown last night? Kane looked 6" taller than Edge on his Edge's "talk show" last night, when Kane held his head up Edge was easily below Kane's eyeline.

Bleemo, I just cut off the right shoulder of the guy in the pic with Kane to fit everyone in. The two pics are actually matched up pretty well when not cropped. Kane looks maybe an inch taller than Malone in his big boots and would be probably slightly shorter barefoot.

JT look at the photo on the right and you'll see the guy's shoulder is higher by about 2 inches and the guy is leaning in. They are still useful photos but analyse them in a different way. In the pic with kane if the guy stood up straight his head would almost come to the same level on Kane's mouth as it does on the Malone pic. I agree that Kane is probs wearing his boots therefore the just under 6'8 reading for Kane is correct.

Spike, Kane is marginally taller than Taker. Probably about .5" to an abolsute max of 1". This is old stuff, all you have to do is check out mikeV10's Isaac Yankem DDS (Kane) and masked Undertaker match pics. Kane devoid of lifts was slightly taller than Undertaker around 1995. With the massive lifts (original masked version) Kane was 2+" taller than Taker who also wore the biggest boots of his career at the time.

kane looked his tallest when he wore the mask.it,s quite evident that he wore bigger lifts ,cause in a staredown with big show he only looked 2 inches shorter instead of 4 inches like he does now without the mask.

Cobra, its funny you mention that in regards to his billed weight, that use to drive me crazy about Undertaker. For example, at Wrestlemania 12 UT was billed as 328lbs and Diesle at 317lbs. No way did UT look 11lbs heavier! Not to mention UT vs. Kane WM 14. Kane was billed at 326lbs and UT at 328lbs where it looked like Kane was clearly the heavier of the two.

I can`t understand why they list him as just 320 lbs, when they are also saying he is close to 7ft. He would get away with a 330lbs+ listing easily, if you believe the height. Taker is listed as 305 lbs, Kane as 320 lbs, but I am sure the difference is closer to 30 lbs. I would say Kane is- ironically, because his listed height is so way off- pretty close to his billed weight.
His height 6ft8,5 no doubt

Kane doesn't wear those lifts anymore. You can clearly tell that. His lifts back then added anywhere from 2 to 3 inches to his barefoot height. You can't wrestle in lifts 4-5 inches though, 3 yes.
Snitsky's lifts give over 2 inches to his barefoot height too.

His boots were definitely flat in the front, appearing to have a .5" - .75" sole thickness, no more. To gain 4" over barefoot height Kane would need 5+" heel, physically impossible based on the construction of his boots.

Da Man, I disagree. There is NO way that Kane's footwear in that video ONLY gave him 2.5" over his BAREFOOT height. He was 2" - 2.5" taller there than he is in his current gear, but NOT just 2.5" taller than his barefoot height. I know many on here think that wrestling in lifts is impossible, but obviously it's not. Lashley and Snitsky also wear lifts IMO. And yes, I already knew about the "heel height truth", his old boots definitely were NOT flat at the front!

If Kane had 2 inch heel with 2 inch lifts inside then he's walking on 4 inches of heel today which I can't see happening while wrestling. 4 inches will give you 3 inches of height to you. I do think he got a minimum 2 inches of height given to him though.

00Fatman, there's only one problem (major) with your reasoning. I suggest you Click Here and become a little better informed on how lifts actually work. A 4" heel does not provide anywhere near 4" of actual height increase, it will provide more along the lines of 2.5" of actual height boost UNLESS the front of the foot is also significantly raised. Kane's boots, even his older-style lifted boots, are low/flat at the tip meaning it is literally IMPOSSIBLE for Kane's HEIGHT to have been boosted by 4". Kane's height wasn't boosted by more than 2.5" in his original gear, less today.

To me Kane is 6'7" to 6'7.5" at the most. In that video posted by Da Man, it looks as though there is about a 1.5" difference in height b/w old Kane and Big Show. Show was at least 6'11" there, I'd say about 7'1" in those boots. Put Kane at 6'7.5" + 2" heels + 2" lifts = a 6'11.5" Kane in boots, a 1.5" difference b/w him and Show. BTW, I haven't been on here in a while so I don't know if this has been posted, but I came across a site that sells wrestling boots. On the site they have Kane's boots with the option of 2" lifts with up to a 2" heel. Check it out Click Here
To me Kane is 6'7" to 6'7.5" at the most. In that video posted by Da Man, it looks as though there is about a 1.5" difference in height b/w old Kane and Big Show. Show was at least 6'11" there, I'd say about 7'1" in those boots. Put Kane at 6'7.5" + 2" heels + 2" lifts = a 6'11.5" Kane in boots, a 1.5" difference b/w him and Show.

Vegas post that stardown between kane as yankem and undertaker. You will see that there is at least a 1- 1.5 inch advantage in the video. However i do agree with you. kane doesnot wear the added height boost in his boot anymore. Its obvious when we look at the 1999 king of the ring. In the king of the ring he looks with the added height about 6ft10.5 maybe 6ft11. He told me 6ft8.5 in person but i can see him being 6ft8. But still why would he say 6ft8.5 and not 6ft8 or 6ft9?? Why would he give such a weird number?? I dont think he would lie.

Vegas, you do make a great point now that I'm looking at the photos more. Can a wrestler really compete in boots 2.5" - 3" high tho? It must be insanely uncomftable. And I'm sorry, he looks an easy 6'8" there with Eric and I'm not buying the "he's closer to the camera" bit :>)

I agree that Kane's older lifts provided 2 - 2.5" of actual height boost which is significant.

KingNick you think Kane's boots gave him just 1.5" height boost in 1999??? thats only roughly the same as a normal pair of sneakers such as Nike Shox.
Kane was 2" taller than taker in that gear in 1997 at bad blood and taker was the same height as issac yankem so his boots were giving him about 2.5-3" boost (internal lifts i supect more than heel) After all kane is taller there next to show than 6'9 Nash was in either wcw or wwf by about an inch!!!! and about 2-2.5" taller than 6'8 akebono was or probably more!!!!
photo 3 shows the real difference in height between wight and jacobs Click Here and its about 4" not just the 2" in that video; the video is here too with kane and show side by side at the start Click Here

Da Man, awesome clip! I always pegged Kane at 6'8.5", Big Show 6'11". In shoes at those times, I'd say Kane would be at least 6'10". Big Show with shoes I think 7' at that time. The only reason it only looks like a 1" difference there in my opinion is cuz Show won't straighten out his neck.

Da Man you are 100% right . He must of had some lifts in his shoes. The way i see it now i feel that kane no longer wears lifts due to bad knees and just wears a big heal. Back then he prob had the extra lift in the boot as well as the big heel. Now and days i dont think he has any extra lift anymore inside the boot.

During Saturday Night's Main Event last July when Show and Khali faced off they were saying Show was 7'0 while Khali was 7'3 and there sure wasn't a 3 inch difference, not even with Khali standing more straight. 2 inches tops counting Khali's better posture.

I posted that video, forgot to put my name there.
Yes, Kane's posture is very bad in that video, making him look 6'5 or something next to Vince and Austin. If he stood straight he would look around 6'7 I think. Kane has to be the most overbilled wrestler height-wise in the WWE today. Anybody with eyes can see that the guy is nowhere near 7 feet tall. It appears Kane is 6'7,5 max.

At his tallest in that video Kane looks approx 6" taller than 6'1 Vince or 6'7. I have been saying 6'7-6'7.5" for kane all along since meeting him in person. At what point in that video is Kane 7.5"-8" taller than Vince that some here believe him to be???

Actually Anonymous, at about the 3:05 - 3:10 mark when Kane is actually standing up halfway straight and the camera isn't heavily favoring Vince he looks 6+" taller tham McMahon. The top of McMahon's head is clearly a couple inches below Kane's eyeline there. The whole sequence Kane was taking a very wide stance and stooping forward heavily, I guess to illustrate that he was "uncomfortable" without his mask.

I wish I was going to Summerslam ... I'm going to the Summerslam tour lol. They charge like wounded bulls overseas - the cheapest ticket was US $45, & ringside is $280. Just for a house show...

Been to all three for wrestling and Continental Airlines Arena (Meadowlands) is actually bigger than MSG in terms of seating capacity. it hold 20,049 whereas MSG hold 19,763. It's also much steeper which is better imo
My favourite USA indoor arena is United Center in Chicago which holds 23,000+ but could easily seat alot more people than that (it is huge) They havent had a WWE wrestling event there since 1994 i think?? They keep going back to the second-rate All-State Arena next to O'Hare probably because rent is much cheaper i guess.

Jason, I been to MSG 3 times for WWE events. Survivor Series 2002 in section 300's which was far but wasn't the farthest though as the 400's are the nose bleed seats then I went to Raw and SD back and at Raw I was in section 202 which was a fair distance then on SD I was in section 74 which was close. I paid cheaper for the closer seats then the seats farther since it was a PPV which costed much more. I tried getting tickets to WM 20 in MSG in 2004 but tickets sold out in 3 minutes legit! And it was $60 for the furthest seats in the arena.

One thing's for sure, Kane and Eric and certainly are far closer to equal distance from the camera than Kane and your 5-6 friend were in your pic.
Regardless, in the pic above the camera is tilted in eric's favor, just look at the door and the fire alarm behind them. Kane's head appears marginally closer to the camera because of his width, as has been stated already. Kane's right shoulder/arm is most almost exactly the same distance from the camera as eric1's left shoulder/arm. Kane appears closer because of his width AND the V-formation he and eric1 are standing in in relation to the camera.

Kane is closer to the camera there; no doubt in my mind; as his head is simply not that big in reality (unless Eric 1 has a really small head).
Sorry KickNick not buying that Jacobs' girth makes him look closer. Jacobs girth doesn't make him look closer to the camera here with a 5'5.5-5'6 130-140lb guy (Jacobs' head looks a lot smaller there too btw) Click Here or here Click Here or what about Paul Wight who outweighs Jacobs by approx 150lb, his girth is not making him appear closer here with a guy roughly 200lb lighter Click Here
I still say Jacobs looked 6'7ish when i met him in 2004. I would love to meet him again in person seeing as almost everyone i have talked to here and in other places claim he is 6'8-6'9 in person (i honestly never saw it, neither did my brother or my 4 friends that were there that day which baffles me)

I understand what you mean KingNick, because of Kane's massive girth even though he's standing next to Eric he seems closer to camera. Think of Kane and Eric standing with their backs flat against a wall. I f you looked at them side by side Kane's body would come furtherest out from wall.

Problem is we've said is that Kane is a little closer to the camera than Eric which will make Kane look an inch or so taller than he really is. If Eric comes closer to the camera you still have at least 8 inches making Kane minimum 6'7.

When kane was 1st introduced at Bad Blood in 1997 he was with no question 340 pounds. In 2001 when kane looked his best when he was his most muscular he was an easy 325 pounds. WHen kane came back from his injury that was the only time in his career as kane that he weighed under 300. He was prob about 275. Today kane is an easy 300-315 pounds . I dont know how no one can see that. I am 205 pounds and i look like i weigh nothing next to him . WHen kane was isaac yankem he was most likely under 300 pounds. As Isaac yankem he was about 265-275 pounds. As Diesel 2 he was also under 300 pounds. He was about 275-280.

WHen kane came back from his injury that was the only time in his career as kane that he weighed under 300. He was prob about 275. Today kane is an easy 300-315 pounds . I dont know how no one can see that. I am 205 pounds and i look like i weigh nothing next to him . WHen kane was isaac yankem he was most likely under 300 pounds. As Isaac yankem he was about 265-275 pounds. As Diesel 2 he was also under 300 pounds. He was about 275-280.

Kane billed at 345lbs I do remember but he was probably really 325lbs. Some say at his heaviest he wasn't even 300lbs but thats a crock of sh*t. He was easily 320lbs at his heaviest, if not closer to 330lbs but no more than that.

Hey Alex, did you know Kevin Nash is also Jewish? Kane used to be billed as 345 by Smoky Mountain ... same place that billed him as 6'7''.

Kane isn't 320lbs anymore. He's 300lbs or so now or a little under. At a point he only looked 280 something when he came back smaller. But Kane was indeed 320-325lbs before he had that bicep injury.

Your somatype actually never changes, it remains the same from the time you're in the womb on. If you were a mesomorph and were skinny as a kid, then you'd still be a mesmorph then ... just a growing one.

I'm a mesno. When I was younger years ago I was an ecto. Some people are a mix of 2 of them.

Mike Tyson actually would be an extreme mesomorph, not an endomorph. Somatype is about more than your bone size; some mesomorphs have immense frames (like Tyson). Tyson didn't even used to lift weights in his prime (never started until he went to prison in the 90s for something to do) and weighed a solid 200lbs at 12 years old. Now, that's a mesomorph...

Eric, you're 100% right. Comparing you to Kane isn't the best thing. You probably look big by yourself or with normal sized guys. Look at the picture with me and Kurt Angle on the Angle page. I'm in between 185-190lbs there and I'm big if you look at me alone but with Angle I look more lean.

Yes, Viper for a High School DT I am small at 5'11 and 226. I can max bech 340 becasue my arms are short, though. I used to way 252 last year as a Junior, but I had to loose weight to be able to move better.

Sid if your 5ft11 and 245 thats considered huge. Back 3 years ago i did weigh about 225 to 230 . I was too big. You also have to take into account that i am standing next to a 300 pound plus man. 205 pounds for 5ft11 and change is not considered small. It all depends on your body frame. There are 3 types of frames . Exo which is considered very small . Meso which is prob the ideal bodyframe. Then theres Endo which is the largest of them all. Now sombody that is an exo body frame and weighs 200 pounds is considered way too big for there frame. Where an endo body frame can weigh 200 pounds but can be considered medium. I am a meso . Another example of a meso bodyframe is Evander Holyfield. Kane is a perfect example of an endo. A perfect example of an exo would be Bruce Lee. A smaller bodyframe . However Bruce lee was in great shape. Now if bruce lee weighed 200 pounds he would be way too big for his bodyframe.
For me 190 pounds to 215 is what i should be around . Thats considered big for me. When i was 225 to 230 i was way too big for my frame. A very perfect example is mike tyson and evander. WHen they fought they were around the same weight however they had different frames. Tyson is an endo. Holyfield being a meso. Meaning that tyson can be 235 -240 easy cause his frame looks good with it where evander would look too big being 235. Sid you sound like your an endo where you have a large body frame with no body fat. Thats great. WHen i am shirtless i look like LL COOL J or Evander. Thats my body type. Thats a Meso. Terrell Owens is another Meso. Now endos can be on the skinny side to small for there body frame of on the big side where they fill it out. Kane fills out his endo body frame.

The Jerk, for my height 6'0.5 most sites say my for a large frame I shouldn't be over 196-197lbs but I'm more about 200lbs so a bit over so it says I'm overweight but I'm not fat so I don't take it seriously.

Im 5-11 and 205 lbs. Lot of that is muscle, but also some is fat. I think an ideal height for my large frame is more 185-190lbs. With my body type it would be impossible to look thin. I need to lose about 20 lbs.

Well, I am 5'11 and 226, and play DT in High School. Im pretty fat, but have a lot of muscle to and can becnh alot. Some people have different frames too. My freind is my height and is lighter then me, but looks heavier because his frame cant hold it well.

Eric, 10% is pretty good. I'm like 12 or 13% at most and thats good. I was at 10% at a point 2 summers ago but I thought I was a bit too lean so I put weight back on. You're probably around my size.
