Of course 6'5.5" for Kane is possible. It's not "for sure impossible", Canson. He has actually looked that range many times even when he was a little younger.
Do I think he's 6'5.5"? No. Do I think it's possible? Yes.
IMO... I don't think there is a single chance he is 6'7". No way. He is not taller than Braun Strowman, they are at best the same height, but I'm favoring towards Braun more. What I see in those staredowns is 6'6.25" vs 6'6.5", and Kane even has a footwear advantage.
I'm starting to think Kane might be 6'6" flat.... and Undertaker at just 6'5.5".
edwards said on 8/Aug/19
@ dream dude i personally think weak 6'7 can be arguable for kane considering today.
samson said on 7/Aug/19

Canson said on 7/Aug/19
@Sotiris: Kane is for sure not as low as 197cm. He’s easily at least 199-200 bare minimum really a solid 200 is the lowest i see for him. I’d say closer to 6’7” like Dream said he was when he met him but weak 6’7” I’ll leave open since he said he had thick shoes
Canson said on 7/Aug/19
@Dream: I would have him taller than Taker today honestly. He looks near the 6’7” mark to me. Maybe 6’6.75 worst case
John Tamseo said on 7/Aug/19
And once again Sotiris is back to the Kane and Vince Vaughn. How you cannot see that Vince is on his toes there, boggles my mind. Look at his shoulders!
Abs Kane under 6’6 is a big LOL mate
Roderick said on 7/Aug/19
@Sotiris My 6'10" friend has actually met Edge, Bad News Barrett, Bray Wyatt, Dolph Ziggler,
Mark Henry, and even Hornswoggle.
This was before he was all that height obsessed so he really didnt care much about seeing how tall they were. He did tell me that Wade Barrett was almost as tall as he was, and that Edge wasn't so much shorter than him either.
He said 6'4" for Edge and 6'7" for Wade Barrett, which is obviously ridiculous and inaccurate. But this was before he knew anything about height.
I for one, have had the honor and privilege to meet The Great Khali. He was the biggest person I had ever seen. He honestly looked like he was like 370-380 pounds, and I thought he was at least 7'0". Man was an absolute GIANT. I would say he was 6'11.25"-6'11.5" without the monster shoes he was wearing.
He also looks really old and grey now for some reason, and he has chicken legs. A very impressive upper body but doesn't look like he worked out his legs a day in his life.
Honestly Kane does look 6'5" with Vince Vaughn but it looks like Vaughn is on his tippy toes. In my honest opinion I still go with 6'6.25" for Kane
Roderick said on 7/Aug/19
@edwards.. Dude your math makes no sense. You say Undertaker was "no way" 280lb (as you are always certain) and is currently 270lb. Undertaker said on Insta that he lost 20 pounds. Undertaker was fat in 2018, so yes I believe he could have easily been 280.
My money is on 280 last year and currently 260. 270 now would mean Undertaker was 290 last year.
Dream said on 7/Aug/19
@edwards
Truthfully, Kane looked sky north of 6’6” flat, in person. Couldn’t imagine him being that short, today. He looked 6’7” on the nose. He looked 6’8” because he had bigger shoes than me, but even without the bigger shoes, 6’6” flat seemed impossible, especially when I saw him at Galaxycon.
Shane Gray said on 6/Aug/19
@Creeper a 1.5 inch shoe isnt a lift. Heck, there are some basketball shoes that give that much. I wouldn't count anything as a lift that is under 1.75 inches at minimum. 2+ in general.
Sotiris Gravas said on 6/Aug/19
@Roderick Getting photos w/ celebrities isn't something that particularly interests me if they're not actresses I might have a crush on... Also, the thought of handing over $200 or more is an even bigger deterrent.
I'm not fond of putting out personal information online, given the real threat of identity theft, and don't need crazy ex-girlfriends or ppl I owe money knocking at my door, lol...
That said, I was born in Canada and I'm of Greek heritage, dude.
Would your 6'10" friend ever consider it?
I would put Kane at max 6'5.5" now, but maybe I'm wrong... but no way is he 6'7", on that I'm certain.

Kane is obviously still 6'7. People don't realise that he doesn't care about looking tall anymore and now just wears normal shoes and doesn't stand straight. If he went to the doctor to get measured, no doubt he would still be 6'7+.
For those who are confused, Kane is lying about benching 525. His best bench was probably like 450. People with long arms struggle to do bench press.
Kane could definitely squat a good amount, his legs were huge. I would vote a 600 pound squat for Kane...
Anyone who thinks Kane is weak would have a great time telling that to his face... Lol
edwards said on 6/Aug/19
@canson
yes dude,i always thought that kane was .25 taller than taker.i fully agree on your estimation.as for today i personally think taker is 6'5.5-6'6 range while i personally think kane is 6'6.50-6'6.75 ,there was one dude who was also my neighbour and he said kane still pulled 6'7 with good posture but i personally dont agree with him a bit.
edwards said on 6/Aug/19
@sotiris
Maybe at peak it was arguable for kane but current i say no way,taker is like maybe 270lbs now
Roderick said on 6/Aug/19
@Sotiris Have you ever thought about meeting Kane or Undertaker at a photo convention? I think that would be an amazing piece of evidence for their heights, not saying you have to, but it would help a lot.
Some people in 2019 still think Kane is 6'7" afternoon height today. Hearing as you are 6'7" afternoon height, if you went to meet Kane and if you were taller than him, then that would put these 6'7" claims to rest. Simple. If he is the same height as you, then yes, Kane is still 6'7".
My bet is Kane would come up to around your hairline and look 6'6.25" or just 6'6" flat.
Sotiris, mind if I ask, but where are you from? Also, how tall do you think Kane currently is? I know you say 6'7" for his peak but Idk if I remember you talking about his current..

Roderick said on 4/Aug/19
@Sotiris Undertaker and Kane were both billed at around 325 pounds in the attitude era. Kane was announced usually at 326lb or 328lb. Undertaker was announced at 326lb normally but sometimes as high as 330lb.
I think it's entirely possible both their peak weights were 300 pounds. Watch some 1999 matches of Undertaker, he was massive. Kane in 2000-2002 was enormous, but after his injury and unmasking he got waaaay smaller.
Kane 1997-1999: 290lb
Kane 2000-2002: 300lb
Kane 2003-2011: 270-280lb
Kane 2012-2015: 280lb
Kane 2016-present: 290lb
Now onto UT
Undertaker 1990-1996: 280lb
Undertaker 1997-1998: 290lb
Undertaker 1999: 300lb
Undertaker 2000-2003: 285lb
Undertaker 2004-2006: 280lb
Undertaker 2007-2009: 270lb
Undertaker 2010-2013: 265lb
Undertaker 2014-2017: 275lb
Undertaker 2018: 280lb
Undertaker 2019-present: 260lb

Sotiris Gravas said on 4/Aug/19
Just a reminder to ppl who believe kayfabe, lol: Kane was billed as 323 lbs -- meaning his real weight wasn't even close to that.
Undertaker was billed as 309 lbs -- meaning his real weight was not even close to that.
Understand, fanboys?
Let's say they exaggerated their weight by only 25 lbs... That would put Kane at 298 lbs and Taker at 284 lbs. According to "Toxxic," a wrestling magazine, Taker's billed weight was 305 lbs and his real weight was 285.
If it was by 30 lbs, that puts Kane at 293 and Taker at 279; w/ Taker at only 305, then it's 275.
I'm confused... Is samson still sticking to his story that he counted the plates...? LOL.
@Roderick No way Kane could bench more than Cena IMHO, especially given Kane's long arms.

6'7" for Kane is safe?
He is at most 6'6.25 today. And Im generous because I believe more 6'6".
If he is taller the Calaway, he is about max 0.25 today. There was never more then half inch between the 2 guys with equal footwear.
Also with vince Vaughn he is barely 1.5 inch taller, and Vaughn is a 6'4.5 max. Peak 6'5.
Absolutely impossible 6'7 today, no way.
It seems to me that a 6'2.5 guy head reach the eyes level of a 6'6 guy.
As I see from few pics. Your friend isn't 6'4.5 probably.
—————————————————————————————————
I can see that people really want to use kane/vince vaughn comparison as a reason to downgrade kane’s height,i can see it clearly.
Now downgrading my friend’s height to fit the agenda.he was always a solid 6’4.5 range guy measured on a stadio meter at 12 o clock.he is honest with his height and he records his height and weight every six months.you said if he is taller than calaway 0.25 today,taker losing much height at fast rate dosent mean kane is also losing or shrinking in same rate.for example if taker is 6’6 that dosent meant kane is 6’6.25 and again of taker is 6’5.75 that dosent mean kane is 6’6.every time taker shrinks dosent mean kane will also shrink,dosent meant that they will shrink in same rate.every time taker shrinking dosent mean kane is also shrinking.kane have clearly edged and is visibly taller than 6’6 guys like taker,strowman and corbin.he still pulls atleast weak 6’7 inside the ring.taker shrinking dosent mean kane is slso shrinking same,i can see people downgrading kane everytime’s they see taker appearing shorter.no way kane is flat 6’6

This is a staredown between Kane and 6'2.5" Vader. Honestly, Kane does look about 6'8" there, but it's really hard to tell who has the bigger heel in their boots (both had lifts on).
Click Here
Roderick said on 2/Aug/19
@edwards Kane still being 6'7" would mean Big Show is still 6'11" which we all know is too tall for him.
Kane is 6'6"-6'6.5" today IMO. Maybe your 6'4.5" friend didn't have the same footwear as Kane. Kane does wear big shoes. A lot of ppl who know/met him, like Dream, have said that.
He always has a footwear advantage in the ring, which makes him appear taller than he really is. If Kane had flat boots, I would have guessed him at 6'8" peak height, but that's clearly not the case.
IMO, Kane 6'7" peak, 6'6.25" today
@Sotiris I think Kane could have been 300lb in 2000-2002 which is when I believe he was at his heaviest. His arms were absolutely massive, as well as his chest and thighs.
Undertaker in 1999 might have actually been near 300lb, he was massive then.
As for Cena vs Kane in strength, here is what I think.
Bench Press - Kane (500 vs 481)
Squat - John Cena (611 vs 600)
Deadlift - John Cena (602 vs 550)
Even Big Show said John Cena was the strongest wrestler in the WWE. He said he was stronger than Lesnar even. John Cena is probably one of the strongest pro wrestlers of al time, along with
Mark Henry and Big E.

@rob your listing for kane is safe👍

I would much rather enjoy someone doing 1 plate legitimately and say "hey, Im working out" than some skinny dude pretending to bench what is pretty much 500 pounds, Lol.

@Dream Pretty much yeah. To be honest, he admitted that he never even seen Kane or Undertaker up close, but said that everyone knew how tall they both were. Kane was 6'7" and Undertaker was slightly shorter. So yeah, my original hypothesis was wrong.
Creeper said on 31/Jul/19
Kane was about 1 inch taller than Undertaker.
Kane's billed height was 7'0, which places his height around 6'10 in lifts.
Kane without his lifts was only 6'8.5. So he was really barely taller than Undertaker.
Im voting 6'8.5 for Kane at his prime, what do you guys think?

Roderick said on 29/Jul/19
@Sotiris To be fair, 5'10" 250lb benching 405 isn't that unbelievable. John Cena is 6'0" 245 and benches much more than that. His story is complete BS though, especially when he said he seen Kane bench 650, when Kane himself said 525 which still might be exaggerated or he did it with the help of a spot.
Kane's 6'8" claim was a morning or shoe height. I think he was 6'7.5" max but probs more just 6'7" now.
Undertaker was definitely nowhere near 300 pounds. Some of you guys don't know what 300 pounds looks like.
@Christian I can agree with that mostly.

roderick at '6'7, 6'8 320 is normal for his height if your huge, and yes kane was huge in 1997 to 2001. 280, 290, even 300 too low for him. Hones he looked 320 in his hay days. There are other times when he looked lean back in 1997 to 1999 cause of his suit makes him lose weight cause its so hot in the suit. Then in 2001 he wore the tank top he was huge again. I don't see kane under 320 back in 1997 to 2001

Roderick said on 25/Jul/19
I don't know if anybody has heard of this guy but his name is Michael Gonzalez. He is my friend of mine and he worked as a security guard for WWF.
So I actually told him about this website, and asked him if he ever seen Kane and Undertaker before up close and he told me no, but he said he knew how tall they were.
He said Kane was 6'7" without his lifts and that Undertaker was just barely shorter than him, and said Undertaker was "like 6'6 and a half".
I asked how he knew without seeing them, and he said it was "well known" how tall they both really were. He said some people would say Kane was 6'7 and some people said he was as tall as 6'10", but in reality Kane was only 6'7 and had lifts to measure as tall as 6'10".
One thing he mentioned to me is how also weights weren't actually that exaggerated back then, and he told me Big Show was actually 500 pounds, but I called BS and said "no way", lol.
He didn't get to meet the superstars but he talked to a lot of the people that did and that's apparently how he got all his info on their sizes.
I hope this is a reliable source to everyone. If anybody knows the guy Im talking about, please help confirm this story so it doesnt look like Im pulling it out of my ass.
I really don't want this to just slide like samsons story, apparently seeing Undertaker spot for Kane doing 650lb in 1999, LOL.
P:S Kanes hair was actually real he said, he didnt start wearing a wig until 2002 apparently. Just a cool fact.
Roderick said on 25/Jul/19
@samson I've listened to the podcast, lol. Just because he claims it means it's true? If you're going by that logic, I'm really 7'8" 500lb of pure steel and muscle. Wheres the evidence? Oh, right here, I said I was so it must be true. Right, samsom? Just like how you seen Kane bench 650 in 1999 before he unmasked right? Undertaker was also spotting for him? Lol if you're going to make up a story at least try to make it more reasonable.

@Editor Rob How do you feel about guys like samson who blatantly lie as if to the manner born? Personally, I think he should be
Banned from this site.
Samson said he saw Kane bench 650 lbs -- that he COUNTED THE PLATES -- even though Kane has gone on record as saying his best bench was 525 lbs (not that I believe it). Let's not forget that he said he saw Kane back in 1999, even though Kane didn't even unmask till 2003! The man is a bull(bleep) artist.
I take offense to
trolls like this guy, whose lies assail the integrity of this site. He should at least be suspended for an extended period of time, and be made to apologize.

Fake plates don't count and of course 650 isn't a believable claim, even when he admits a lot less.

Roderick said on 24/Jul/19
@samson Lol Kane was never 320. Even if he was, they wouldn't have only billed him at 328 like they did and instead he would have been billed as high as 365-400. Yeah, they would exaggerate pretty hard.
Kane at his biggest, most impressive physique, would have been lucky to weigh 300lb after a long day of work.
Triple H billed 255-260 was only 230 max imo
The Rock 260 max, billed 275
Stone Cold was maybe 230 max, billed 250
Big Show was 500 pounds in 2006 but not during his debut. I would have said 400 max then. Now he hovers around 380.
These are all my personal estimates. Open to critism
Roderick said on 22/Jul/19
There is a photo of Kane and Daniel Bryan backstage comparing heights with each other (in fun for the difference) and to god honest truth Kane looks 6'5 max in the photo.
On the other hand, there is a photo of Kane hanging out with Shaq where he only looks 4 inches shorter, looking MINIMUM 6'8".
Kane is truly a weird one. Honestly he doesn't look that tall next to short guys but stacks up amazingly well next to tall guys.
Next to Big Show, he always struck me as a 6'8 guy. I never thought he was shorter than that until I looked at him next to Randy Orton and Damien Sandow, and he didn't look much taller than those guys at all.
A possible theory is Kane is really 6'5 but wears lifts next to super tall guys to help sell his 7 foot billing. Keep in mind, an actual 4 inch difference in reality looks like a 2 inch difference on TV. When Kane teamed with Big Show, Show was billed at 7'2 while Kane was billed at 7'0. It worked, bc there was a period in my life where I trusted and believed in billed heights.
So Kane 6'5 + 2" lifts = 6'7" vs Big Show 6'11 no lifts, will appear to only look like 2 inches on TV, which makes sense out of the billed heights.
Or Kane is really 6'7 range and people who wrestle him wear lifts to look close in height to him. What wouldn't make sense is how much that hurts Kanes image of being 7 foot.
In 2012-2013, it became hilariously obvious that Kane was nowhere near 7'0. They actually lowered his billed height to 6'10 I think in 2013. Actually even during the RA era, he was lowered to 6'10 and I might be wrong, but i think he even got a few 6'9 listings.
I will trust that he is really 6'7" range and people wear lifts to look taller next to him. No chance a 6'5" guy will get billed at 7'0". No chance.

Roderick said on 21/Jul/19
6'6.5" downgrade honestly.
In a short staredown between Kane and Undertaker last year, Kane looked to have about an inch on Undertaker.
Kane aged much better than Undertaker IMO. Still much bigger.
Undertaker: 6'7.25" now 6'5.5
Kane: 6'7.5" now 6'6.5"
I downgraded both their peaks slightly. Much more reasonable.

Roderick kane said in a interview, he said he weigh the most was 320 not 280 seems too low for him. Test was 270 280 kane looked much more bigger then him.

There is actually a match between Kane and Matt Morgan on line from 2003. It was an OVW match.
Roderick said on 18/Jul/19
It's not easy to guess someones weight. Im not an expert, but I think it has something to do with the amount of musclefat percentages in the persons body.
I would guess Kane carried around 10% body fat into his career but maybe I'm wrong. Nowadays I'm sure it's a lot higher.
Kane was pretty big and he visibly outweighed the Undertaker, at least in my eyes.
Originally I said 280 for Kane, but maybe he was bigger. He was definitely not smaller than Batista and Batista was a legitimate 300lb steroid freak. The slim, cut down version of Batista was still 265lb in MMA. Batista was billed at 318lb and claimed 310 in an interview with Sheamus. Batista looked massive, too. Nowadays Batistas 270 claim seems legit.
Kane might have been 300lb especially during 2000-2001 when he was huge.
When he made his remasked return, he did look small. Cut down arms and smaller chest. He was still a big, strong guy compared to everyone else, but not to his own 2000 self. He wasn't able to lift Big Show anymore and couldn't do the legitimate one handed chokeslam, but he wasn't young anymore so that major cut-down in size was probably a good decision. I would say Kane wasnt bigger than 280 pounds then, bc even a slim, cut down Kane, is still stronger than everyone in this forum by miles.
Now that Kane is a little fatter, he might be back up to 290 like he claims. Undertaker might only be 260 max now, but he is still strong enough to lift ppl up for the tombstone, which is all that matters, lol.
Canson said on 18/Jul/19
@Riccardo: I think kane and Taker were taller than Sid. Those two were 6’7” range whereas Sid was weak 6’7 6’6 range or even strong 6’6” peak
Roderick said on 18/Jul/19
@Canson I completely understand, same here. But some people act like 6'8" for Kane is completely out of touch with reality when it really isn't. Do I personally think there is a chance of it? Yes, but probably very unlikely bc of his boots, just can't see him measuring 6'8" barefoot. Even when he was in equal footwear with his match against Matt Morgan, he was clearly almost a full inch shorter. If Kane didn't wear those huge boots and still looked the same height, then yes I'd go with 6'8", but that's clearly not the case.
Undertaker is closer to 6'7" than 6'8", I agree fully on that. I would say Undertaker could have been 6'7.5" but probs more like 6'7.25". In his staredowns with guys like Kevin Nash and
Sid Eudy he doesnt look the full 6'7.5", but he doesn't always stand as tall as them. So yes, I list UT at 6'7.5" just to be safe.
Riccardo 5'7" said on 18/Jul/19
Roderick
I actually don't think Sid eudy was taller then taker but sure he put more motivation during a staredown compare to Calaway. If you look at some recent pics you see how tsker is clearly taller today so he was even at his peak.
Also on Kane i have doubts, because he did edge taker as isac yaankem but for all his career he had footwear advantage on his "brother". And outside the ring, in their real life, the music sounds different (Knoxville pics).
Undertaker 200.5cm now 197
Kane 201cm Now 198
Sid 199cm Now 195.5
Canson said on 17/Jul/19
@Roderick: people go for precision on this site. I personally have Taker peak (afternoon) 6’7.25 201cm. I think he was always closer to 6’7” than 6’8”
samson said on 17/Jul/19
Sotiris Gravas kane 280 max no way kane said most he weighed was 320
Roderick said on 16/Jul/19
Some of you guys are funny Lol
6'7.5" isnt much different than 6'8"
People estimating both Kane and Undertaker at 6'8" isnt that bad if most of you guys believe Undertaker was 6'7.5" and Kane was 6'7.75".
I can see how Kane gets 6'8" guesses sometimes but that dude wore monster sized boots and I just can't see him measuring the full 6'8" barefoot.
Riccardo 5'7" said on 16/Jul/19
Honestly I never saw Undertaker with monster boots, most of all in the beginning of his career. Probably some lifts yeah, but people like Kane and Jake the snake always had footwear advantage on him.
ced said on 16/Jul/19
@Sotiris.. The weird thing about Kane and Sid - A while back I posted a video of a Battle Royal i believe it was 1995, Both Kane and Sid were in the match. At one point, Sid walks in front of Kane, and Kane looked to have him by AT LEAST one inch but it looked even more. But to be safe, let's just stick to one inch. Keep in mind at this time, he was Isaac Yankem, and wore pretty flat boots, and it didn't look like he had internal lifts, I could be wrong.
Now, if I take a guess at their peak heights, judging from all evidence that we have, I agree with you that Sid was taller than Taker by .25 inches.
Undertaker: 6'6.75
Sid: 6'7
Now, here's where it gets tricky, I would guess Kane at 6'7.5, but in that battle royale, he looked to have Sid by at least an inch but I don't necessarily see Kane at 6'8, at most, 6'7.75, at least 6'7.25.
Alex 6'3.25 said on 16/Jul/19
He always wore lifts and/or big boots to be slightly taller than Undertaker, probably they were at same height, around 202 cm max.
edwards said on 16/Jul/19
@sotiris gravas
yes dude i agree on some of your estimation.taker was never ever 6'8.there is 0 % chance of taker being 6'8.some of poster in taker's page are desperate in proving him 6'8.inflating everyone's height just to make taker 6'8.i agree that kane wore monster lifts and taker too wore inner monster lifts.
Sotiris Gravas said on 15/Jul/19
@edwards I think Taker, Kane, and
Sid Eudy were all close in height. I actually think Sid was slightly taller than Taker, as seen in this 1989 staredown...
Click Here
Rob has Sid at 6'6.75" peak height, so make of that what you will.
Kane wore "Herman Munster" boots and maybe he and Taker both wore internal lifts, so figuring out their real height isn't easy.
Here's a video where Taker (aka Master of Pain) is described as only 6'8", and The Soultaker (aka The Godfather) is touted as 6'7" (1989)...
Click Here
So, to answer your question, I'm not sure.
Roderick said on 13/Jul/19
I see that a lot better now that I've rewatched that clip. Now that I think about it, Kane benching 525 is definitely very unlikely. I bet he pulled off a 500lb bench on a super good day and just added 25lb to the claim.
Or possibly he was never even able to do that much and completely made a number up... regardless of him being 6'7" or 6'8", 280 pounds or 320 pounds, or on juice or not, even the 500lb bench claim sounds unbelievable. Kane wasn't as massive as he looked on TV, they do a good job at making these guys look stronger and bigger then they really are.
Kane was definitely built and strong, but maybe not as strong as some people think.
edwards said on 13/Jul/19
@ sotiris gravas who do you think is taller at peak,taker or kane who do you think has chance of measuring a tad taller at peak?
Roderick said on 11/Jul/19
Also Lmao, samson if you still lurk here, how would you know it was Kane in 1999 if he didn't unmask until 2003?
@Edwards I'm talking about afternoon heights. I'd say the tallest possible height for Kane until we enter the fairytale zone is 6'8" flat. 6'7.5"-6'7.75" range is much more realistic.
Undertaker in the afternoon/evening was never taller than 6'7.5". More like 6'7.25", but 6'7.5" really isn't much different
Also just a note, something that's been bothering me, what are your guys guesses on
Sid Eudy's height? I notice how he is listed as 6'6.75" here, but I am 100% convinced he is taller than Undertaker. He has to be 6'7.5". Its what I have him at. It's that or Undertaker was 6'6.5". It's one or the other.
edwards said on 11/Jul/19
On Bruce Pritchard's latest podcast on Bad Blood 1997, he stated that both Kane and Undertaker both wore lifts,kane wore outer while taker wore inner lifts but that Kane was taller or have a slighest edge over taker.
Riccardo 5'7" said on 10/Jul/19
@Sotiris Gravas
I found what you said logical. But I don't agree on a pair of things.
I don't doubt that you are pritty much the same size or that you are as strong as someone like Kane.
But I doubt, athletically, you have the same background.
We are not talking about powerlifter maybe, but not even about ordinary men.
Guys that are in gym since 30 years, sure not at a low level.
Also i think bench more then someone depends also from wich muscle fibers you have more developed, so people can always surprise you sometimes.
Said that I don't know your background actually, so probably I'm saying nothing. But I think he did edge 500lb
Roderick said on 10/Jul/19
Picture Shaq but kinda with a leaner body, that's basically what my friend looks like. He is happy with his weight I'm sure.
It is honestly so hard to look at someone and say "oh, he can probably bench this much". As for Kane, I don't think 525 is impossible, but it might be a little exaggerated as you said. He might have done 500 before with the aid of a spotter, and added 25 pounds to the claim. Remember, he DID lift the 500lb peak weight Big Show up at his chest and did dump him over to rope... so I really don't know if he could have done the same with a bar, laying down.
My heaviest I ever weighed was 235, and that was actually growing up. I was a fat kid. Right now, I am 5'11" and I weigh 190 pounds, and I don't look fat anymore. I just turned 40 a few weeks ago, and even some of my friends tell me I can still pass for being in my 20s.
As for Undertakers' weight, I'd say he was never heavier than 270. Kane was 280 MAX imo. Nowadays, Undertaker is probably 240-250, yes, 240, and Kane probably didn't lose much mass, he might have actually gained some weight if you looked at his last few runs, he had a belly. Maybe 290 for Kane today.
Kane is way bigger than UT imo.
ced said on 10/Jul/19
@Sotiris, wow I didn't know you yourself are a giant. 6'7 285 pounds?? How come you never go into pro wrestling? You would have been a perfect 3rd brother of destruction. Also, have you ever met Kane? If so, was he taller or shorter than you or you would say pretty much the same height?
edwards said on 10/Jul/19
@Roderick said on 8/Jul/19
Hearing as Kane himself has claimed 6'8", we know that there is zero chance of him being 6'8.25" or 6'8.5" like some people have estimated him at. Just zero chance.dude peak kane could clear 6'8 quite easily in the morning,i mean in the morning kane could clear 6'8 easily,he may wake aup at 6'8.5 and kane may wakeup at 6'8.both of them dudes at peaks.
Roderick said on 8/Jul/19
So from the polls, within one day of it being up, it got 10 votes.
7 for 6'8"
3 for 6'7"
0 for 6'6"
This means that we can throw any argument of Kane under 6'7" peak height out of the window... as nobody voted for 6'6".
This also means that the majority of voters can agree that Kane wasn't just 6'7" flat but a small fraction over.
Hearing as Kane himself has claimed 6'8", we know that there is zero chance of him being 6'8.25" or 6'8.5" like some people have estimated him at. Just zero chance.
The average peak guess has him at 6'7.96", which is pretty much 6'8" on a stadiometer.
The average current guess is 6'7.14" which is going to read as 6'7.25" on a stadiometer, probably.
Both averages seem off, but just by a little fraction of height.
Kane being 6'7.75" peak height seems absolute bang on to me. For his current height I would say 6'6.75" max but probably more like 6'6.5". I think we might be able to elimate 6'6.75" from the equation however, since he looked 3.5" shorter than 6'10" Big Show last year, which would make him 6'6.5".
I think I nailed Kane guys, not trying to brag. 6'7.75" and 6'6.5" just seem like the two perfect numbers for this man.
Roderick said on 7/Jul/19
Sotiris is right. When samson said Kane benched 650, that is almost impossible.
Kane stated on Stone Colds' podcast that his best bench was 525. So yes, samson is a liar.
I am 40, 5'11", 14.5" biceps, 5'11.5" wingspan, and 190lb. I can bench 220lb and I can squat 385lb. I don't know how big my chest is. I have a friend who is a legitimate 6'10" who I mentioned on Khalis' page, and he can only bench 240lb and he is 285 pounds.
I doubt Kane was ever a full 300lb, more like 280 max. If you've seen what 6'8" 300 pound men look like, you will know why seeing Kane at 300lb is very hard to believe. What do you think about both brothers of destructions weight, Sotiris?
Sotiris Gravas said on 7/Jul/19
Just to put things into perspective:
Maybe 6'7.5" (Editor Rob has him at 6'7.75") 448.64 lbs
Hafthor Bjornsson, a VERY strong guy, was only able to bench 250 kg/551 lbs...
Click Here
Bigger Man says that he (6'11.75", only 293 lbs) was able to bench 276 kg/608 lbs, despite his VERY long arms which makes lifting heavy weight VERY hard.
Hmmm...
Rather than hit the gym, I'm just gonna go eat a donut.
Sotiris Gravas said on 7/Jul/19
Addendum: For the record, yes, I'm stupid, and no, I didn't bother watching the very end of that Shaq/Barkley video or even bother to read the comments section, until now. Turns out Barkley was using fake weights (I think the first 2 were real), so even he couldn't do one rep of 405 lbs. I was so focused on Shaq (and had the volume down really low) that I failed to notice Barkley's weights weren't even clanking together; translation: fake. Bottom line: I'm dumb, so don't try and copy off of me on a test.
P.S. Shaq isn't Hercules, but he can still throw ppl around like rag dolls, so don't try and pick a fight w/ him when you're drunk.

Kane has good chances of be 6'7 at his peak, I wouldn't roule out 6'6.5/6'6.75 barefoot.
Now something like 6'5.75/6'6".
The shoes he used to wore were to big to ignore, shoes on wich i think he was 6'8.5 or something
Riccardo 5'7" said on 6/Jul/19
I used to bench 245lb just for 1 at my best, not alone but with the help of (I don't remember the name, spotter?).
I used to train bicipes with 35lb.
I'm 5'7" and I was pretty big phisically training in this way. (big compared to my height)
An other guy, 194 cm, struggled to reach good results as many others phisically similar to him.
It's true that more tall you are more it's hard make muscles and be strong , at 7' tall most of all.
So, for me it's hard reading about 650lb here, 600lb there. But of course I'm an other "kind of human" compare to many here.
Roderick said on 6/Jul/19
I hope this doesn't defy the rules of the website but I made a poll because I was curious to what every one thinks. I made a poll of what height everyone thinks Kane was closest to: 6'8", 6'7", and even as low as 6'6". So for example, if you think Kane was 6'7.25", you would select 6'7". If you think he was 6'7.5", you would select 6'8".
Click Here
My vote is 6'8" because I believe he was 6'7.75" or at least 6'7.5".
Sotiris Gravas said on 6/Jul/19
Okay, so I spelled Schwarzeneggbeater, I mean, Schwarzenegger wrong in my previous post. It was either a typo or a series of minor strokes that were to blame; maybe both. Real glad I got the last part of Arnie's last name correct. Phew!
Click Here
@Roderick His post hadn't popped up yet when I visited this page. I see it now (so it does exist).
The way I see it, Bigger Man is one of three things:
1) Exactly what he claims; a very rare breed of human.
2) Around the height he states, though used hyperbolic claims regarding feats of strength to embellish his story.
3) A dime-a-dozen
troll who purports bull(bleep) and lives in a world of fantasy b/c real life is too depressing.
I seriously doubt it's the first one, but I could be wrong. Anything is possible, but I doubt it. Again, a BIG, strong guy like Shaq tried to bench only 405 lbs... and it was an epic fail.
Superman tattoo or not, the bench press is basically Kryptonite for very tall guys with very long arms:

@Sotiris Gravas But Bigger Man did answer all your questions... He wrote a whole essay for you.
Roderick said on 5/Jul/19
@Edwards I never said he was 6'7" flat at his peak. I said that during that stage of his career during the Viscera staredown that he was 6'7" mark flat. I too believe he was 6'7.75" and is now currently 6'6.5". These are all our estimates and we could all be wrong. I am just sticking to those two numbers.
Also anybody who estimates Kane taller than 6'8" is a clown. I can how some people can get 6'8".... But past that is pure reality denial.
ced said on 5/Jul/19
Kane's height is truly a weird one. I use to think he had to have been a 6'8 peak, but the more I look into older videos, the less I believe he was.
I don't know how tall Sid Vicious was (another weird one), but, in a battle Royal, Glenn looked to have had him by AT LEAST 1.25 inch. (There's a clip where Sid walks by Yankem, and Yankem is absolutely taller. But then you look at the Jake Roberts - Yankem match, and he doesn't look over 2 inches taller. Maybe 1.75.
The Viscera-Kane staredown that Sotiris posted is telling. Obvisouly, Viscera had huge lifts on, but, Kane also has lifts on.
Also, if anyone has ever played the WWF War Zone game from 1998, in it, they have Kane listed as 6'7. I always wondered if they had accidently revealed his real height in the game.. By that I mean, Kane comes into the graphic department at Acclaim, and they take his real his real height and put it in before WWE was able to tell them "hey , we promote his as 7 Feet tall".
edwards said on 5/Jul/19
@roderick
there's no way he(kane) was only 6'7 at peak.he imho was 6'7.75 at peak.kane was 6'10 or even 6'10.5 at peak with those boots.as for taker he was 6'7.5 or 6'7.25 at peak imho personally.
Roderick said on 5/Jul/19
@Sotiris Gravas I actually agree with you on Viscera. I don't think he was 6'6.5" either, I would think more 6'6" flat, as he was billed it at one point. I think Kane looks about an inch taller than Viscera though, which places Kane at around 6'7" flat at that point in his career.

How is logically possible that, after 2000500675368 pictures of monster heels or heights comparison with fans, still someone that will sure come out with a "Guys Kane was 6'8/6'9"...

I'm surprised you haven't said the same thing to me. Truthfully, I did see Kane in person, btw. He looked around 6'8", but he had bigger shoes. He seemed around 6'7"-6'7.25" in person, taking footwear advantage out. Also, I didn't get a picture because the photos costed too much, but I saw him up close.

Sotiris...of course any of us can reel out any figures we want on a site like this because there’s no way of anybody proving or disproving it. But for me I don’t see a reason to bother telling tall tales...pun intended! I’m not gaining anything. Nobody knows me so I’m not gonna get any recognition. In fact I half expected not to be believed but I only mentioned it in relation to the the stories of Kane and others and what weights they were or were not pressing or curling.
As for my measurements. When I was at my strongest, tallest and heaviest muscular weight when I was in the gym every other day I was 6’11.75, chest 60, weight 21stone or just over 133kg. And bicep measured 22.5 inches. Growing up I was pretty solid but like most tall guys putting on really huge muscle was harder for me than much shorter guys. My muscle building genetics were pretty decent though despite my extreme height but I was never gonna be super awesome. So I settled for pretty strong and used my height and decent build to get work n bodyguarding and security.
Nowadays I’m 51 and though I still workout, it’s more a maintenance and health thing now. Being this tall is hard enough without carrying any excess weight, especially at my age.

@Sotiris.. Brian Clark is another hard one.. In his match with Kevin Nash in WCW, what would you say was the height difference between them? Let's say Nash was 6'9, or 6'9.25, Clark looked about 3-3.5 inches shorter..
In that case, I'd say 6'4.75-6'5.25..

@Sotiris Gravas = Yeah Sotiris one more time this pic too with Sally Field is convincing me he was never 6"1' range

Click Here ,ken looks max 5"10' and was factured 6"0'....Then i understand if Ken was measured only 5"11.5' on Vince's stadiometer his measure was always very generous.And when i compare some bodybuilders in this era i think(it's just my opinion of course)other of this guys had a generous official height.

In this segment with the same boots sole do you think is taller, kane or taker?
samson said on 29/Jun/19
Bigger Man If your 6'11 and can bench press 600 so can kane who was 6'8 at his peak, usually guys your size like you and kane are stronger then your average guys. Ya its true I saw kane bench press 650 I counted the plates.
Pierre said on 28/Jun/19
Kane is tall but has not specially the physic of a very strong man,you can see in the video of Samson(27/June) his shoulders/pelvis/legs for his height are not specially large

At 52 seconds into this video, you can see Arnie and 5'2" Sally Field, both barefoot from 1976... a pic I'm pretty sure I already posted on Arnold's page. Maybe I should post it again and ask Rob what he thinks, or even now... Rob, your thoughts? What height do you give him, Pierre, based on him w/ Sally Field? I'm sure houss will hate it, lol.
Editor Rob
He might struggle to look much over 6ft with sally
Sotiris Gravas said on 28/Jun/19
@samson Thanks for the "kid" reference. As a 47-year-old man, it makes me feel young again (I hate when ppl call me sir). As for you sticking to your story, I'd much rather you stick it up somewhere... a specific part of your anatomy. Don't ever reveal your secret identity, Spider-Man.

As for your Kane/Show video... Kane wears skyscrapers for heels and internal lifts, too, just in case you didn't know.

I actually saw MelvinJones bench that 1000 lbs; I counted the plates. Samson and houss were also there but they were too busy trembling in fear at the sight of men w/ actual muscles. Bigger Man was outside guarding the place to make sure Daniel reynolds didn't get in.
I know what I saw!

edwards I counted the plates, it was 650, 525 no way. There people in the wwe who benched 600 back then theres no way there stronger then kane
Takerfan said on 25/Jun/19
On this weeks episode of Raw, it was said Strowman benched 585 and Lashley 535. I would say Kane could do around the 550 mark surely
Manpreet Singh Virk said on 25/Jun/19
Kane has never stood 6'6 and 6'7 in his real life. His height is 6'8 among all the time. Actually his billed height in professional wrestling is 6'10 but the problem is when he's in wwf/e they listed him as 7'0.

Mat marogan is the same height but in a podcast when they spoke about morgans time in the wwe they said he wore lifts, in q different podcast they said when kane made his debut he didnt wore lifts and was naturally taller and bigger than taker, and they only wear lifts for certain segments, and not for a long period of time
samson said on 24/Jun/19
MelvinJones I know what I saw, I counted the plates. Even Dave metzer the radio host said that kane can bench 650. I'm sticking to what I'm saying.
Bigger Man said on 24/Jun/19
Hmm...some huge weights being talked about there. I’m 6’11 and a former bodyguard and doorman. I was a keen power lifter...my heavier bench was 276 Kg for one rep...over 600lbs. So with these juiced up guys I can well believe 655. Definitely!
Dream said on 24/Jun/19
I would’ve thought 6’7-6’7.25” today, in person. He was really big.

Kane himself said he benched 525 which is a lot of weight. Google the interview. Samson is just
trolling.
Sotiris Gravas said on 22/Jun/19
@samson You said you saw Kane using 150-lb dumbbells for arm curls. Based solely on that, no one should believe anything you have to say. You're a bull(bleep) artist. I don't care if you don't care. You said Kane was taller than those 6'8" doors, when he clearly wasn't. You're either blind or the opposite of smart. I'm not trying to be mean here, I'm simply calling you out, b/c you need to be called out.
samson said on 22/Jun/19
Sotiris Gravas Both Ken Shamrock and Faroqq aka Ron Simmons said they both hoisted 600, theres no way there stronger then kane. If Ken and Ron simmons can bench press 600 so can kane. I know what I saw I'm sticking to what I'm saying kane benched 650
samson said on 21/Jun/19
Sotiris Gravas Matt morgan benched 655 he was taller then kane, like i said Brock Lesner benched 655 back in the ovw days he's smaller then kane, if Brock can do it so can kane. I don't give a flip flopping fly if you don't believe me, I know what I saw I counted the plates. I'm 5'10 weigh 250 benching 405 for 2 reps, one good rep and one force rep with a spotter.
samson said on 21/Jun/19
Sotiris Gravas I'll try to find the interview. I know what I saw I counted the plates it was 650. Brock who is even smaller benched 655, so if brock can bench that much so can kane.
Heisenberg89 said on 21/Jun/19
I give at Kane a 6'6 max today barefoot. In his prime I guess him max 6'7.25 but I think more just 6'7".
In his legendary boots 6'9 range few times, strong 6'8 range most of the times.
In my opinion he always had max 0.25 on taker barefoot if not same height.

Dream Ya he was wearing sneakers, I dont know what size shoe he wore, maybe size 16 to size 18 didn't pay attention. He was laying down on the bench. I could be wrong, he could be 6'7 or 6'8 my guess is he was 6'8 I don't know to me when he stood up he looked 6'8 thats my guess I could be wrong. And yes I saw him bench 650 I counted the plates.
Canson said on 18/Jun/19
I doubt ever 6’7”. I think he was similar to Sid and Taker. Maybe more Taker peak and still close to 6’7” today
ced said on 18/Jun/19
Kane is truly a weird one.. On one hand, bakc in 1999, he stacked up to Big Show better than anyone else in WWF or WCW until Great Khali came in.
On the other hand, when he returned in 2002, with the half mask, and wa wearing flat boots, he looked CONSIDERABLY smaller. He looked around the 6'7 mark.
Then when he returned with the current mask, in 2011, after he chokeslammed Cena, he looked HUGE, but his boots weren't his 1997 monster boots, but take a look at that video and he looks every bit of 6'8.
Could it be that his height just fluctuates? In 98, I can see him at just under the 6'8 mark, with the boots, just under 6'10, OR 6'9 1/2. You have that WrestleMania 14 match against Taker where he just looked GIGANTIC against Taker. They had more of a height difference between them than when Taker faced Diesel 2 years prior at WrestleMania 12.
My guess is Kane with his boots monster boots was 6'9.5, and just under 6'8 (in 1997).. 2002, he was around the 6'7 mark, and now he's at 6'6.5.
samson said on 18/Jun/19
Sotiris Gravas yes he was at my gym, and i counted the plates it was 650. I don't care if you dont believe me or not I know what I saw
Dream said on 17/Jun/19
@Sotiris Gravas
I’d be hard press to see him at 6’6” flat today. He’s well over it, in person. He looked around 6’7”, minus the footwear advantage he had.
Dream said on 16/Jun/19
@samson
I'm not sure about 6'8", but did he have bigger shoes than you? I think peak, he's over 6'7". When I saw him up close, he looked nearly 6'8", but he had much bigger shoes than my runner shoes.
Sotiris Gravas said on 16/Jun/19
@samson I don't believe a single word of what you posted, nor should anyone else.
samson said on 13/Jun/19
Dream I'd say back then he was 6'8. I saw Kane and Undertaker at my gym back in 1999, back then there was not any cameras on the phones, I saw Kane benched 650 pounds and curled 150 pound dumbells. He said he curled 150 pounds in a interview. I counted the plates. Kane back then ever bit of 6'8. I'm good with estimating heights. I couldn't tell who was taller between Undertaker and Kane. He spotted Kane so, he was lying on the bench Kane was huge back then, he looked his billed weight I'd say 326 to 328pounds. I'd say he was 2nd strongest next to
Mark Henry
Dream said on 12/Jun/19
Rob, I think Peak and current listing are fine. I saw him up close, recently. He looked nearly 6'8", but he had bigger shoes than my runner shoes. (I didn't take a photo because it costed too much.) Ground was even and it was mid afternoon to early evening.
SeanR said on 11/Jun/19
Matt Morgan I meant to say...
SeanR said on 11/Jun/19
Matt recently did an interview with Chris Van Vliet (Check out Chris YouTube and Instagram pages for more) where Matt claims he was “shoot” measured for American Gladiators at 7’0” by several different methods (one of them lying on a table - lol). He also stated that he was 6’10.5” as a freshman in college and grew to eventually be 7’0”. I agree with Matt’s assessment being measured in the 6’10” range in college but it was probably in basketball shoes which gives at least 1.5” boost. He did not mention if his heights were barefoot or in shoes so we have to assume he meant the latter. The 2nd pic of Chris and Matt on Chris’s Instagram account does give credence of a large height disparity but Chris looks to be in socks there and Matt in dress shoes. Seeing other pics of Chris with other celebs/wrestlers I will give him 5’8”. Matt is somewhere in the range of 6’7.5” to 6’8.5” today but it’s possible his peak barefoot evening height could have been 6’8.75” or 6’9”. There is no way he is 7’0” when he measured just short of Big Show, Kevin Nash and Nathan Jones who are all 6’9” and above.
Chris n said on 9/Jun/19
I heard Jim Ross on an interview talking about Glen Jacobs, I honestly can’t remember which one it was but it’s fairly recent if anyone else has heard of it. He mentioned a young Glen coming through the wrestling ranks as “a 6’7 or 6’8 guy”.
Big ed said on 7/Jun/19

Rob, I saw him up close. He still looks about 6’7”, but had some big shoes on.
The neighbor of mine (the one my step-dad thought was 6’4”-6’5”, but looked much taller) looked a bit shorter than Kane, but he had flip flops, while Kane was in much thicker footwear.

Wow what a great find I've been looking for that forever thanks for posting!
It's real hard to tell the height difference b/c there's no exact staredown. If you pause at 13:25, that's the closest thing. Morgan has a little bit of a camera angle advantage. My bet is without that he is an inch taller, but only because of the boots. Without the boots, I bet they'd be about the same height.

Joshua C said on 21/May/19
The Matt Morgan vs Kane match, kane had his small boots on and you can obviously tell, if you actually look, that Matt has his HUGE internal lifts on.
Heisenberg89 said on 21/May/19
Edwards
Kane was and maybe is taller, but barely. I never meet both together side by side barefoot, so I can't be sure like you are.
The only thing I saw, as everyone, is that Kane appeared always a lot taller then he really is.
Pichard said " no no, Kane didn't wore lifts because he was actually bigger".
Well he was drunk, or it was a lie.
Kane wears lifts since he was born maybe.
But my point is... You saw or not his boots and his legs posture? Of course you did. So I don't understand your point..
Kane was maxxx 6'7 at his peak, taker probably barely shorter like 6'6'75.
And guys... Kane, as almost all wrestlers, can't absolutely be judged inside a wwe ring.
So has no sense talk about his WWE staredown
edwards said on 20/May/19
Heisenberg89 said on 19/May/19
yes i agree with on this.Bruce pichard said Kane was bigger then taker, in fact he was.yeah,kane was always taller and much bigger than taker.the only times i saw undertaker bigger or atleast same as kane was only in 1999 and 2000.taker has bigger head but kane has much bigger body and proportion ofcource body and biceps,lets say huge body and his bigger mass.taker only edged or stack against kane was in 1999 or 2000,in all of the stare down and matches you can see kane is much bigger than taker in 90 percent of 100 staredown and appearance
Heisenberg89 said on 19/May/19
@Ironman092289
The problem with Kane, in my opinion, is that he always wore big boots with lift added. And his television appearances always showed him taller then he really was, and the 99% of us are all influenced by this factor.
Bruce pichard said Kane was bigger then taker, in fact he was. But bigger does not means necessary taller. If he was, he was barely taller.
Without shoes, camera angles, and wrestling ring tricks he could never handle a staredown with big show like he did in some occasions, since the moment that there are barefoot almost 4 inch between them at their peaks (6'7" MAXvs 6'10.75/6'11"MAX) and 3.25 nowadays.
Kane is the only one I remember, together with Jake the snake, that probably wore almost 5/6cm boots.
Philip McMullin said on 18/May/19
@miko you seen the video i was talking about?
miko said on 17/May/19
Kane in his boots would have pushed Matt Morgan pretty close in a staredown.
Philip McMullin said on 17/May/19
There's an interesting vid on YouTube (Kane vs. Matt Morgan) Back in '03. Very hard to tell who's the taller of the two.
Fred Mullen said on 17/May/19
A 6’7 or 8 man slouched over in a photo can easily look in the 6’5-6 range, which we see evident in many photos of Glen Jacobs and Mark Calaway. If Kane stood straight, to be measured that is, he would be min 6’7
edwards said on 16/May/19
he is likely in 6'6.5-6'6.75 range today.as for undertaker,taker is around 6'5.5-6'6 range today.
both of these dude were above 6'7 at peak with taker being 6'7.5 and kane being a tad taller at 6'7.75
Troy Tippett said on 15/May/19
@Samson
You can’t see the ground level you can’t see shoes, bad camera angles, there are many factors
That estimate is inconclusive really
Ironman092289 said on 15/May/19
I read somewhere that in a UK Magazine or interview that Kane admitted to being 6'5", which I find interesting. I think he was about 6'7" max, but maybe he was able to fraud it for years because of his boots. Just throwing stuff out there. I will still remain solid with the idea that he is 6'6.5" today and 6'7" peak, but again I could be wrong.
@Heisenberg In my all honest opinion, Undertaker did look taller. I am going to look into Kane a bit more, maybe even 6'6+ range for him is too high, like it is for Undertaker.
samson said on 14/May/19
Heres a video posted 6 days ago, its a video about Glenn jacobs as mayor and put on alittle skit for the people, he became kane. And he looks 6'7 the guy he choked slammed was was just under 6ft. Glenn had about 5inches on the guy he choked slammed. Just watch the video and see for yourself heres the link

Heisenberg89 said on 14/May/19
I think Kane now is max 6'6" but probably 6'5 and 3/4.
At his peak just 6'7".
He lost less height then undertaker.
But...i still think that in Knoxville he didn't look taller then Calaway.
He really didn't.
Ironman092289 said on 14/May/19
Maybe Kane isn't even 6'6.5" today if Khali is 6'11", and if he is really only 6'10" then Kane is 6'4".
I think a more realistic approach would be a 7'0.5" Khali vs a 6'6.5" Kane? I'm not too sure on Khali's height.
ced said on 13/May/19
Kane was 6'7.75 peak.
In the Khali staredown (2008?), Kane: 6'6.5, Khali 6'11.5
Annonymous said on 12/May/19
@Vegas
And Khali's eye level is lower than most people's as he quite obviously has an abnormally large skull.
Some people just suck at this height guessing game, Kane is 6'5" if we have a 6 '11 Khali.

If Undertaker was 6'6.5" at his peak, and Kane was 1/4-1/2 taller, then I believe Kane was 6'7" at his peak, but no more than that. Today, Kane is likely in the 6'6" - 6'6.5" range, as he is about 0.75"-1" taller than Undertaker today, instead of the 1/4-1/2" in the 90s (Undertaker lost more height imo)
edwards said on 13/Apr/19
@ rawdshaq taker was not even close to 6'8.5 or even strong 6'8 let alone 6'9,the max i could see for peak taker is 6'7.5 and 6'8.5 in boot.kane was always taller than taker maybe a cm or half inch,whether he was fake diesel,isaac yankem or kane.at times,either seems to edge other but most of the time kane was taller and much bigger than taker,the onlytime taker seems to edge kane was 1999,dude bty it has been often said that taker too wore inner enhanced lifts,i say no chance of taker being taller than kane.my bet is peak taker 6'7.5 at best and peak kane 6'7.75 or 6'8.
rawdshaq said on 12/Apr/19
@Nyjuan That is a really good point I recently found out but I do still believe that Kanes lifts were more enhanced and that if they were both barefoot I believe Undertaker had 1/4 inch on Kane. I believe Undertaker was a really underestimated guy at his peak and I believe he was near 6ft 9 (6'8.5").

LOL Sotiris you proved NOTHING. By proving you have to have him measured, which you didn't.
You just estimated his height and made up your mind thinking Kane is 6'6" and that's it.
Kane 6'8" peak and nowadays a little over 6'7"

@canson
imho the stare down between kane as isaac yanken and undertaker proves that kane was half a inch if not more taller than taker.since it was in 1996 and both were at peak and kane didnt have lifts.
Canson said on 29/Mar/19
I would believe that Taker and Kane were similar at their peaks both around 6’7”
rawdshaq said on 29/Mar/19
As someone who doesnt agree with Sotiris and his heights, @ced Im sorry but thats a horrible way to compare heights of two people. I can get a picture of Shaq and get a picture of me and make one of those side by side pictures and make a 5'9" guy like me look the same height as 7'1" Shaq
ced said on 29/Mar/19
Here is a good comparison of Nash and Kane.. It provides a general idea of how they would look next to each other in size.
Click Here
If Kane was only 6'6.5 in peak height as Sotiris claims, there is no way he would look this tall next to Nash. Kane was a minimum 6'7.75 peak (day height), and probably woke up around 6'8 or 6'8.25

rawdshaq said on 17/Mar/19 dude you mean taker taller than kane lol
edwards said on 28/Mar/19
@sotirios chatzi
taker was never ever taller than kane,pretty much everyone know about that,at times either seems to edge other or either would appear taller but i say no way taker is taller than kane.kane is atleast half inch taller than taker.
Sotiris Gravas said on 27/Mar/19
@Geoff T You sound pretty sure of yourself. Why not post some pics where you actually back up what you say, like I do...?
P.S. My WiFi is pretty fast; it doesn't take long to Google something and post it here. I'm great at multitasking and can even walk and chew gum at the same time. W/ all due respect, I've already proven that Kane is not 6'7" now, at least IMHO. Just b/c Rob the editor happens to disagree w/ me is not definitive proof that I'm wrong.
@Rob Always happy to contribute.
Sakz said on 27/Mar/19
@Rob Does it not come across as spam though? I'm pretty sure I see the same pictures over and over posted.
Editor Rob
Yeah I understand some comments/photos could be seen as repetitive.
But then, I've been reading the site all these years, so a lot of arguments can seem that way too.
Going off topic and turning a page into an argument beyond just the height in question is something I don't like to see. I have been very lenient really, but sometimes there is a limit.
sotirios chatzi said on 27/Mar/19
My dad worked in wrestling during the 90s, he told me Kane and Undertaker were about the same height, and said if one is taller it was Undertaker.
Geoff T said on 27/Mar/19
@sotiris do you spend 80% of your day sources pictures of peoples heights, then get excited when you create links for them? By the way kane is 6’7
Editor Rob
Even though I may not agree with a lot of his estimates, he is making an effort contributing.

Another Big Show/Kane | Kevin Nash-Big Show comparison
Click Here ----- Show and Nash
Click Here ----- Show and Kane
What do you guys think?
ced said on 25/Mar/19
@Vegas, I don't think your video is the best comparison either.. Kane is slouching big time in the video..
I think a better comparison to that Nash Video would be when Kane was in the ring with McMahon when he first "spoke" with the voicebox gimmick.. That's where you can truly see the comparison.
@Sotiris, I am not by any means saying that Kane was taller than Nash.. BUT, if Nash was 6'9 or 6'9.25, Kane had 2 inch lifts.. That means that Kane without his 2 inch lifts was minimal 6'7.5 at his peak.. But he was even taller than Nash in his lifts, meaning (at his peak) he had to be 6'7.5 OR 6'7.75 in order to be taller than Nash in them.

Christian i here you on that i remember google had the rapper madchild at 4'11" i knew that was a joke i met him and he was a little shorter than me and i'm 5'6" so yeah google definitely lies
Christian 6'5 3/8" said on 24/Mar/19
@rawdshaq
Lol, hell no. Google listings are all over the place most of the time. They are rarely accurate. Most of the time they're too high, but occasionally you see low listings as well. There was once a 5'11.5" listed actor that was listed as 5'0" on Google before, but it has now changed to 6'0".
Matt Haines said on 24/Mar/19
6'7 range sounds pretty legit for Kane here I am at 6.0.5" standing next to him

Dan Trojan said on 24/Mar/19
Ced your pictures don't prove anything kane was known to wear lifts that's why he looks taller than nash i believe nash was 6'9" at peak and kane 6'7" or maybe a bit more seeing as he always looked slightly taller than the undertaker kane was never taller than nash
Grezza said on 24/Mar/19
Actually here's a picture of Kane and Bryan out of gear with a fan compared to the Joey/Bryan picture
Click Here
And as u can see, Kane's clearly got a foot in height on DB there, where as Joey looks to have 6.5 inches on DB
Sotiris Gravas said on 24/Mar/19
@ced Internal lifts, dudester.
Here, look at this pic of little 5'7" (not 5'7.75") Daniel Bryan next to fellow poster Joeyb33 (6'2.25") w/ a 0.5" footwear advantage (2017)...

OK, now look at this YouTube clip of Bryan and Kane (2013)...

@Sotiris.. take a look below.. Kevin Nash with Shane McMahon and then Shane Mcmahon with Kane
Granted, the photo is not the best conparison, but what you can see here is how tal Kane was next to Shane compared to Nash.. yes, Kane has lifts on, but he would not be taller than Nash in his lifts if he was only 6’6.5 peak.. he defi itely looks taller than Nash in this photo

@rawdshaq
bye the way dude,its not only kane,it has been often claimed that taker too wore inner lifts.
edwards said on 21/Mar/19
@rawdshaq watch kane as isaac yankem stare down with undertaker in 1996 since both are young and at peak.both has normal shoes.
Lyle said on 21/Mar/19
@rawdshaq it was revealed Taker wore lifts to but inside his boots rather than outside like Kane
rawdshaq said on 20/Mar/19
I think Undertaker was 1/2 taller than Kane at their peaks. Kane had huge lifts, Undertaker didn't, and still held up with him very easily.

Posting a picture of a man that is close to 7ft and someone who is well under 6ft to make a judgement for the taller man, is so inconclusive @Sotiris. your examples and point of view Is very sloppy
