Arnie was more than 185 peak. He was in the 186-187 zone. Now, he isnt less than 181.
He's AT BEST 179cm today.

Even in the elevator shoes he is 1.5 inches lower than the increase of 185 people.
Peak - 6.1 max, more like 6,025 (my opinion).

Arnold was taller than junior and shorter than senior.
Again 6'1" or 185 cm. max at peak, minimum 183 cm.
Now days anything btw 179 and 181 cm.

He was 186-187 peak. Now, he is tin the 181-183 range. To post that he was only 6 at peak and 5'9 now is just absurd.

Arnold was obviously taller than Bush Jr. back then and here's a 2002 video where you see Bruce Willis, who is said to be at least 5'11" and certainly no shorter than Bush: Click Here (Go to around 10:34) This is significant because Arnold was always noticeably taller than Bruce until The Expendables when the difference started getting much smaller. Here's an example from December 2006 Click Here Click Here I still believe Arnold's measurement was the best guess, but 6'1" flat is also possible, though anything less than 6'0.5" peak is crazy, especially since he was still at least 6 feet until around the time he returned to acting. His height loss has been quite remarkable, though and he was already no more than 5'11.5" a few years ago, so it wouldn't surprise me if he's closer to 5'11" flat by this point, though I haven't seen any comparisons since Terminator 5 and Expendables 3.

He looks ~1nch taller than Bush in those photos,look at their eyelevels.You can argue 182-183cm (5'11.75-6'0) 10 years ago but has rapidly gone down these days-i wouldn't be surprised if Arnie is shorter than Bush NOW but not much...Maybe about a cm.

Arnie could still look near 6 foot as late as 2010...using Chris Eubank as an example, who Rob met and pegged 5'10".
The pictures with Eubank definitely lend weight to Arnold being much taller than most folk would like to believe. Eubank is a very solid 5'10", with good posture too.

I still think 5'11" flat would be a better shout as he can look under that mark even at times.

Check out Arnold in the movie Maggie, which he made when he was 67. Almost all the shots of Arnold are taken from mid-chest up, which is ironic, since Arnold's career and appeal are based almost entirely on his physique. I suspect that he is crippled and cannot move for more than a few seconds without giving this away.

Schwarzenegger was an inch shorter than 5'11" George W. Bush in 2004. He always wore lifts in films and in real life.
He's 5'9.5" now at 70.
Yeah, he wore lifts onstage when competing (rolling eyes). Dude, you're just a troll. He was TALLER than Bush at THAT time. Stop inventing things. Some of these are from as late as 2007 when height loss was in full swing for Arnie.

I think its pretty clear he's hovering around the 5'11 mark at the minute. He can look lower than this at times but I think if he busted a gut he'd just about scrape a flat 5'11 in the early afternoon.
He seemed to hold his height pretty well until his mid 50's, around the time of Terminator 3 when he still looked a very solid 6 footer.
When he became governor he aged about 30-40 years in a very short time. His hair thinned, his skin began to wrinkle and his spine seemed to collapse in on itself. Same thing happened to Bill Clinton when he was in office. Those types of high stress jobs age a man well before his years (including height loss).

Measured? When was Reg measured? Provide your source. I've been a fan of bodybuilding my whole life and I've never ever seen a document stating his MEASURED height. He has been called both 6'1" and 6'2", just like Steve Reeves, but 0 reference to an actual measurement and btw, there are dozens of pics of Arnie and Reg from the late 60's where sometimes they look the same height, sometimes Reg looks taller and sometimes Arnie does, so one pic of them does not prove anything.

I think Arnold looks around 180-182 these days, in my opinion to drop from 187 to 180 it's less probable, but who knows. 185 can be more realistic guess. I cant see Arnold at 187

Arnold the sane height peak and actually.

Peak: 6ft 1.6in (187.1cm)
Today: 5ft 11.7in (182.2cm)
Done, dusted, not to be discussed further. Everyone get a life
5'11.7" today? Nowhere near that. I don't get what people don't understand about 5'11"-5'11.5" Jimmy Fallon having noticeable height on Arnold, yet claim they are the same height or that Arnold is taller than him??? Even if Jimmy is 6'0" which he's not, Arnold is still UNDER 5'11"!!!

As someone who is around Paxton's height Arnold did not measure up to him like a legit 6'2 guy does with me, in fact he looked shorter than 6'1 guys do

Hard to argue anything over 6'1 for him after seeing the pic of a young Arnold and Boyer Coe ..
He doesn't even look 6'1 there, and that's with shoes in.
Still I'm gonna guess a 6'0.5" to 6'1 prime ( 6'.5" + 1 fake inch = 6'1.5 his "proclaimed" height ? ) but I have never seen any evidence
of him being a barefeet 6'1.5 let alone 6'2 in his prime.
And nowadays 5'11 seems to be the consensus, a friend of mine met him on the Tour de France a few years ago and he was shocked by Arnold's height who he said was "not so tall, only 1m80"

So to all the Harold types thinking that Arnie was like 5'10-5'11 in his prime it's over. This pretty much settles it for me.
Lol are work is done here.... Let's go over to the Stallone page there is much to do there!!

Very small height difference with Jeff Bridges in the video.The thing is that Bridges wears shoes and Arnie is barefoot.I guess 187 for both.

At the Australian GP, Hamilton made a joke about how he thought that Arnold would be taller.
There cannot be more than a 3.5 inch (very generous) difference between him and 5'7.5 Hamilton, who was wearing nearly flat racing shoes, while Arnold was in sneakers. Vettel is 5'8.5 and was, while leaning slightly, still within 2.5 inches of Arnold. Google for these images.
Arnold needs to be downgraded to 5'11 tops.

2017 181 and a couple mm I think he lost 1,5 cm really fast around 2002-2003 when he did terminator 3. because at that time he said he went upp in the middle of the night and trained for couple hours because he didnt have time to do it during the days.

He looks about 6'1" in shoes, so I estimate him at about 6'00" when he stands up straight. At peak over 6'1" is correct as old pictures of him show, and as bodybuilding competitions list him after measuring his height professionally. It is normal that he lost some height due to age. I had an uncle who was about 6'3" peak, and in his 90s he was 6' standing straight barefoot.

I'm not Arnie hater, by no means. I grow up with his movies, i think Arnie was best bb in history and his movies are amazing.
Plus i disagree with people that cut off too much height to Schwarzy and i believe that Arnold was a tall guy that never needed elevator shoes o something like that.
BUT he was never above a genuine 6 1.
My personal opinion is that Arnie was 183/184 cm., not less, not more and this particular height is best for body building and helped him.

I'm not even remotely convinced that's tip-toeing. That's just the angle of his foot. If he was standing on his toes they'd look scrunched up, and they're flat.

Interesting looking through old movie prop sales. Back in the 70s and 80s when magazine articles would go on about Arnold's clothing sizes and chase him up in stores around LA, they mentioned his 34" inside leg, and a 34 or 36" waist - pretty fair a tall and long-limbed fellow as he was. Let's jump to 2000, and if we look here Click Here we see his pants are 38" waist 33" leg. In 2012 Click Here he's wearing a 38" waist and 32" leg.

Watching him in the new celebrity apprentice trailer it's clear that Arnold has lost significant height - I would think primarily in his knees and his lower back. I think it's interesting to try to figure out when he lost the height.
His peak of 6'1" or 1.85 was probably up to age 45 or so.
I think he lost 1" by 55 and another 1" by 65 and perhaps even another half an inch since then. I think he'd struggle to reach 5'11" in the morning now.

Not just people over 6 foot. I have a friend in his late 60s now who used to measure over 5'10 but on his last doctors checkup was only 5'8, much to his disappointment! Funny because he always used to round himself up in general conversation and say he was 6 foot tall, when we could all see he was nowhere near it!

As a GP for 17 years, I have seen many taller people lose a couple of inches over the years. It is not that unusual for men over 6 foot tall, especially a man who is touching 70 years of age.

And let's not forget that Pumping Iron came along almost a decade before Arnold became a big name in Hollywood. The movie was filmed in 1975, and though he had minor roles in the intervening years, it wasn't until Conan in 1982 and Terminator in 1984 that Arnold started to become a 'star'.

I was re-watching Pumping Iron the other day, since it's such a classic. I paid close attention to that Mike Katz and Arnie scene in the gym and Katz looked to be slightly taller. In the movie Katz was described as a 6'1" college football player. If you do some research, you will find that 6'1" listing was actually true. Off course In the bodybuilding world he was listed 6'2", even taller in some occasions. So that again proves what I have been saying all along. Arnold was 184cm, 6'0.25"-6'0.5" and in the entertainment industry they always add extra height for promotional reasons
You say Katz was listed as 6'1 and that this was actually true. Yet Arnold listed at 6'2" is "they always add extra height". This doesn't tally. If they added a couple of inches to Arnold's height, as you say was standard practice, then they'd have done the same to Katz and he'd have been 6'3". And a simple search for images on Google shows plenty of pictures where Arnold is at least Katz's height, or more.

I concur with those assessing 5'10" at most. In a recent promotional photo, by comparison, Arnold is barely taller than Jon Lovitz (listed at 5'8.5" on this site). The 6'5" Lisa Leslie stands a full head taller than Arnold!

My mother's cousin met him in their primes. Our cousin claimed 6'1" prime but who knows if that was Morning or evening and he said Arnold was around the same height. So at worst he was a legit 6'0" guy maybe strong 6'0" prime. Yes 5'11" today makes sense but in his prime some of the comments below are crazy. He was legitimately over 6'0" tall lifts or no lifts

For sure his current height as he can indeed look under 5'11" at times with bad posture. Its been a few years since he looked near 6' without generous footwear.

Arnold certainly does look smaller on the second batch of pictures, but he's still clearly taller than Dennis Wolf. It's the angle of the pictures - on the ones shot from low down he looks the same height. the third picture is shot from a level, or higher, and you can see he's got a couple of inches on him. I'd still say he's 5'11 these days, out of shoes. But Christ he looks tall next to Nasser in that very first picture - there's no way that fellow could've been 5'11.5"

The reason Arnold's upper body looks 'compressed' is simple. Look back at photos of him in his bodybuilding prime - as a tall man he is/was very long-limbed. Usually the way with tall people - all the height comes from the legs. So Arnold's torso was never particularly lengthy. Now he's pushing 70, his middle has, quite naturally, thickened - hence the illusion of being 'compressed'. I agree with the overall opinion here - he's probably only dropped a couple of inches, from 6'1 - 5'11.

I don't believe anyone can shrink that much. 5cm is way too much for a height loss giving his health history. the man never had problems with his legs or back, so it's impossible that 5cm have been lost since his 30's.
Also, today he doesn't look much above 5'11, so I think he was 6ft when he was young, because losing 2cm is much more blievable than 5. Also, in the 70's everyone was shorter, so Arnold could pass as almost 190cm unnoticed

Also, today he doesn't look much above 5'11, so I think he was 6ft when he was young, because losing 2cm is much more blievable than 5. Also, in the 70's everyone was shorter, so Arnold could pass as almost 190cm unnoticed

If there ever was a clear-cut, textbook example of a legit 6'2"(1.88m) man, it would be peak Arnold. He was strapping, even when barefoot.

There's a Shawn Ray interview somewhere about when he first met Sergio Oliva. Shawn Ray was well known as a 5'7" "giant killer" in bodybuilding. By this point Sergio was in his late 40s or even 50s, and Shawn mentions being surprised that he was almost as tall as this man he'd considered a mythological giant all these years. So therefore, well into middle age Sergio must have still been a couple of inches taller. Shawn himself listed Oliva's stats on a tribute on a message board somewhere and put him at 5'11 (presumably when younger). I'd always heard and read he was 5'10 myself and inclined to believe it.

I was wearing shoes myself, Doc, let's not forget that! The ones I had on that day have a 1.25 heel. Didn't notice Arnold's footwear (I was too close and wouldn't have thought of it anyway) but I'd have guessed he was at least my height overall.

I examined the photos of him when he was recently in London Rob and I think he is 178.5cm 5ft 10 1/4 in without shoes; just look at the heel rim of his footwear there is at least 3cm on outside and perhaps 1cm on the inside giving him a perceived height of 182.4cm with shoes just a shade under 6ft 183cm like D Morse who recently saw him in London noted.

Another proof that the billed height is correct: in pictures with Bruce Willis (who was 182-183 cm.) in the early nineties, Arnold was clearly taller, over an inch more. That puts him around 187. In recent pictures he is almost even with Bruce, since Arnold lost 5-6 cm and Willis around 1 or 2. So Willis was 182-183 and Arnold 186-187 when they were at their peak. Nowdays maybe Bruce is 180 and Arnold 181-182.

My chiropractor met Arnold at a convention about 10 years ago already, still has the picture with him in his office. His best guess is that Arnold was 5'11" to 5'11.5" at the time. I also have a friend that met him when he toured an Oshkosh Truck plant a few years ago. My friend described Arnold as small, but to be fair my friend is 6'1.5" to maybe 6'2" and about 235 lbs of muscle

@ D Morse - Hi again! I like your reply, particularly the 'knowing grin' bit and the way you expressed yourself 'stumbling on your way!'
If it had been me, I would doubtless have had to hoist myself up from the ground before stumbling on my way!
Yes, these celebrities must be so used to being gauped at wherever they go; I don't think I'd like it much and I certainly wouldn't appreciate the nosy photographers and press hounding me! I'm quite happy being invisible sometimes.
One thing that didn't surprise me though is that you picked up on his height! It just goes to show that one's height really is one of the very first things we take in when we see someone.
Cheers and have a great weekend!

I don't know how I'd react if I bumped into someone that famous but I do know I'd have great difficulty keeping my cool!
Well Sandy, I didn't even have chance to prepare my cool, let alone keep it! It was totally unexpected and I just stared (I'm ashamed to say) and eventually stumbled on my way. But Arnold clocked me and gave a knowing grin. I'm sure he's used to much more hysterical reactions, so I probably didn't come off too badly. As for his height, I'm a shade under 6 foot and he looked at the very least the same as me, certainly no less. We were close enough for me to be certain of that.

Walked past Arnold in St James's (London) last night. Did a double-take, as I wasn't exactly expecting to see him. He was with an older gentleman and a woman pushing a pram (has he just had a kid??). He didn't look gigantic, maybe a 6 footer but not much more. He noticed me staring and smiled, so that's my brush with fame.

Ok, bit of a weird one this but bare with me. If you see George Clooney and Danny DeVito in the recent Nespresso commercials, Danny comes up almost to George's collarbone. If you see pictures of Arnold and Danny at the Golden Camera Awards in Germany last year, Danny comes up to mid-chest on Arnold. If we go with this then Arnold is an inch or so taller than George Clooney (who is comfortably over 5'10). So therefore, yes, probably 5'11 - 6 foot, as most people here say.

Im impressed with the average votes. That could be very close to the truth, nice to see most give a good logical guess rather than read the 5'11" peak rubbish.
Some quick facts:
Rob has a pic with Chris Eubank and gave the ex boxer 5'10". Arnold was pí®ctured with Eubank a few years ago ( On his page or here)and still looked 6ft in comparison.
He used to be 4 inches or so taller than Stallone, the difference is down to 3 inches, with equal footwear ofc.
Proving he has lost more than Sly with age.
Rob met Evander Holyfield and gave him 6'1.25" - 186 cm.
You guessed it...A pic circulated here for a while of Arnold and Holyfield standing next to one another. My guess was 5'11.25" from that pic. It looked a standard 2 in difference.

I doubt very much he was ever 6'1. Way back in 1988, Andre Agassi appeared on the tonight show (it's actually on youtube now). Agassi was always listed as 5'10 at that time, though in a year he'd start getting listed at 5'11. In any case, when he and Arnold shake hands it was obvious Arnold was NOT 6'2....in fact he looks equal height to Andre, or at MOST 1 inch taller.

Recently saw Arnold out with his old friend JCVD. They were out for dinner at a downtown Restaurant; big Arnie seemed to be eating something vegetarian. Well anyway Van Damme had his height measured by his mother in a recent documentary and she found him to be 177cm - just under 5ft 10in in stature, she was measuring him out for a suit. Anyway, there was at least a 3 inch difference in height between Arnie and Jean Claude. I would imagine Arnie wears lifts so if you subtract about 2cm just under an inch I would guess Arnie is 182cm without shoes - 5ft 11.5in just like you estimated Rob.

I have met him when he was governor, I know people who have known him in his bodybuilding days and I have been seeing him nowadays at the gym. In his peak he was about184cm, now he is around 179cm.

I don't think Arnold hides his height. He is often out and about on his bike or the gym in a pair of flat slip-on shoes, and often in the company of - and photographed with - people who are considerably taller. If he was insecure about his height he wouldn't be so eager to do this and would Munster-up, like Stallone, before going near anybody. I bet he finds it highly amusing that people waste so much time and energy arguing with one another about his height.
Maybe he has already posted on here under a different name.

And Harold is one accusing Arnold of farce????
For what it's worth, I'm with the general consensus on this one. Young Arnold was 6'1 and current Arnold is probably 5'11.
Like Doc says, the guy doesn't take himself too seriously, interacts a lot with his fans (and even his detractors) on the internet, and is happy to raise money for charity. I think he'd be up for measuring. He mentioned his own height at just over 6 foot a few years back, so it's not as if there'd be any great shocks in store.

@Doc & @JasonKim: uh, you guys do realize that the man has spent his life in the illusion industry, right? When you work at the fantasy factory, you get paid to pretend. As in pass yourself off as something you're not. The idea that little Arnie would flat-out lie for his lifetime (and get well-paid for it) and suddenly, as he turns 70, decide to come clean is...well, let's just say that it's not in his character. The show must go one. Or, in his case, farce. Five foot ten, peak. Five nine and change today. As a buddy of mine, who is a captain in the Los Angeles Fire Department said, upon meeting Schwarzenegger: "I didn't realize he was short." Now, five nine or ten isn't short, but it certainly is if you've been passing yourself off as four or five inches taller. Pathetic, really.

One of the reasons why Arnold is very likable is the fact he doesn't take himself too seriously; in other words he is one of the people. We can identify with him. That's what helped him get elected as Governor in the first place. We the people like him. I would directly put it to Arnold, who I suspect reads this page; to let you Rob measure his height for charity. And who cares if it turns out he is 5'10, you can lose at least 2 to 3 inches of height with age. So Arnold Go For It - I challenge you....

@ GP That's why people underestimate 5'11,because most who claim it are anywhere 5'8-5'10 and sometimes even less.

The photo that Priyom posted is from Gold's Gym. I have seen Priyom in the gym and he is NOT 5'11". He is closer to 5'9", possibly lower than that. He has done some acting work and on his twitter page he has a photo with Michael Keaton where he looks shorter than Keaton, who nowadays isn't more than 5'8". It's funny cuz the same day the photo is from, I also saw Arnold in the gym and I remember he was working out with Ralph Moeller, who towered over him. I saw him again recently working out with a trainer and he was like 5'10.5"-5'11". You also gotta take into account that he has a big head and his hair make him look taller

Mind you, Johnson is prone to exaggeration to suit his story. In a Rolling Stone article he swore that Ferrigno had 26" biceps. Hmm.

I'd apologise Doc. I generally don't recall that, and watched it a few months back. Even if he did say that, I'm fairly sure it's bull. There's no chance a 1970s Arnold was 5'10".

Response to the person who listed themselves as '' Just the facts '' : Quote regarding Arnolds height being quoted as 5'10'' by Kenneth Johnson was from the directors commentary on the DVD The Tncredible Hulk Series 1 - Episode 1 the movie.

"It is also important to bare in mind that back in the 70s Arnold auditioned for the Incredible Hulk series but didn't get the role of the Hulk character partly due to the fact according to the director Kenneth Johnson he wasn't tall enough in fact the director is quoted to having said that Arnold was only about 5ft 10..."
I'm sure Johnson never said 5'10. I don't recall this from any articles or DVD interviews. Yes, height was one of the things that worked against Arnold in this case - but what you need to remember is that originally even Lou Ferrigno wasn't considered tall enough. The role actually went to Richard Kiel, purely because of his superhuman height. The Hulk character was supposed to be well over 7 foot tall after all. It was only when the first episode was already being shot that they decided Kiel didn't look an impressive physical specimen and that they would have to go with a bodybuilder. As there was nobody with both an impressive bodybuilding physique and a height over 7 foot, they downgraded significantly to a 6'4" Lou. In the episodes, characters still describe the Hulk they have sighted as being over 7 foot tall.

To revise my former estimate, I'd say 6'1.5.

@Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 12/Nov/16: He was near 6ft2 in his prime, get over it guys. He came to this country with nothing and achieved more in a relatively short period of time than any of you jealous trolls combined ever will...
You are so right: because what the 21st Century needs is an Austrian strongman who believes that might makes right. What could go wrong there?

I think Rob that Arnold was 183.5cm 6ft 0.25in max at his peak perhaps a tad smaller. But today I would say he wears lifts and his height without shoes is closer to 179cm 5ft 10.5in. This is clearly evident from the photo that he had taken with 5'11.25in Tony Blair outside No. 10 9yrs ago where it is clear that Arnolds shoes look to have a thicker heel. It is also important to bare in mind that back in the 70s Arnold auditioned for the Incredible Hulk series but didn't get the role of the Hulk character partly due to the fact according to the director Kenneth Johnson he wasn't tall enough in fact the director is quoted to having said that Arnold was only about 5ft 10 in in height even back then, but I don't think this is accurate - as I've already stated I think he was a bit taller than that even back then.

@AlexItaly 186-187cm with shoes on at night in his 20's-30's i can believe that but Ferrigno did tower over him,atleast 3 inches.So that'd make Lou 6'5 which he wasn't.He was also listed 185cm in his early participations in bodybuilding competitions.All i'm saying is there's more chance Arnie was 184-185 range rather than 186-187cm,but each one to their own ofcourse.One thing though,Harold's own take on Arnies current height is not far of the truth but as for his peak estimate,it's just way off.

No way you are 5ft11, either you have been measuring yourself wrong or you're just blatantly lying. Arnold today is nothing more than 181cm, so that would put you at no more than 5ft9. The only way your 5ft11 claim would have seemed sensible, is that if he was actually 6ft1.5, but that's not the case at all.

Priyom,
Post proof you are 5'11 so Rob can verify it. If So, then yes Arnold is 6'1.5. However we need Proof that you are 5'11 just like all the other posters have agreed to do.
