There is no way he was as low as 6ft0 in 2003 he had a good 2inchs on larry fishbourne at the time and 3 on Kevin Bacon,and only 2 years befor that was about 4 shorter than 6ft6 James Cromwell in space cowboys and the same hight as 6ft2 or 3 Jeff Daniles in bloodwork.

I met Clint Eastwood at a gym in Boston back when he was filming the movie "Mystic River". I thank that movie was made in 2002 or so. I'm 6'3" barefoot and Clint was only 6'0" or maybe 6'1" tops....His is older now and his posture isn't great but I'd put him at a real solid 6'2" or even 6'3" in his prime...real nice guy to talk to...
It's possible that he was around 6'0.5" in the early 2000's. Today he's closer to 5'11". In his prime, he would have edged you out.

There's a photo of Clint Eastwood and Bradley Cooper standing next to each other at the Oscars. Cooper is an inch taller, and is listed as 6'1". Can a person shrink 5 inches when they are 84 years old?
First of all, your math is off. If Cooper is 6'1" and had 1" on Eastwood, that would put Eastwood at 6'0", so how did he lose 5" if he was never over 6'4". Secondly, Cooper is max 6'0", putting Eastwood in the 5'11" range today, so yes, he has lost around 5", but not based on your math.

No there's no chance his height was dramatically inflated, looking at his limbs and proportions back in the 60s and 70s there was no way he was below a strong 6'3. I think 6'3.75 would be bang on for peak Eastwood, to me hes not the type to lie about his height and if hes 6'3.75 its normal hed say 6'4.

I don't want to overdose on Eastwood height postings, but if Bradley Cooper is 6'2, as he says, or 6.05, as this site says, then..barring lifts or heel variations, Eastwood is definitely no more than 6'0 max, or 5'10.5, minimum. From a potential 6'5.5 or 6'4, down to 6'0 or less...wow. My uncle is or was 6'2. At 80, if he stands straight, he still is. Either Eastwood's got spinal issues, or his height was inflated..."in my opinion".

Rock Hudson said he was 6'5" but shrunk to 6'4" by 1967. As I said 6'4.5-6'5" for Hudson and 6'3.5-6'4" for Eastwood is arguable.

Arch, A 6'5" peak for Rock Hudson is debatable. Rock always claimed he was 6'4" when asked about his height. I personally think he was 6'4.5" barefoot.

Arch; I know it sounds absurd to you, but I'm in just as much of a position to judge his height, as you. Unless I'm mistaken, you haven't met Eastwood or any of his many co-stars. So, you are basing all of your opinions on listed heights and visual comparisons...which are based on listed heights or what people claim their heights to be. I am amazed at how many people who post here are absolutely certain of the height of people they compare Eastwood to, and somehow think they are in a better position to judge heights than others. Over the past 32 years, I have met maybe 20 or 25 celebrities. Some were in their prime, others just slightly passed it (50's). With the exception of Kevin Nash, a admittedly recent meeting, not one actor was nearly as big or tall as generally listed. I'm sure George Kennedy, Geoffrey Wolcott, William Smith and many others were over 6 feet in their prime. But not one of us will ever know, exactly, by how much, which other actors and Eastwood co-stars were not really over 6 feet as self-described, or how tall Eastwood really was in his prime. For celebrities well past their prime, juding heights will forever be enirely opinion. People, including a nearly lifelong friend, have misjudged my height (6'), calling me 6'2 or 6'3. Friends who describe themselves as 6 footers, going as far back as college, were shorter than me by an inch, or even two. Another friend's dad met eastwood, decades ago. My friend's dad decribed himself as 6'4 when telling me this 25 years ago, and said Eastwood was much taller. So, even if someone "met" Eastwood in his prime, I would only take their comment on his height as just opinion. Unless we all go back in time, barefoot with Eastwood, and gather a small team of scientists to accurately measure Eastwood, and the rest of us for comparison's sake...all at the same time of day, we will never know his exact height, or anyone else's. I think I just got bored.

Almost everyone I know is surprised to see the 6'4" claim (myself included). I'll give him 6'3" max in his prime. I know there were a lot of cowboy boots being worn back then, plus generally people state their height in inch-thick soled shoes. His height now?- dunno I'd go as low as 6', however, maybe in the 6'0 1/2"- 6'1" range. I noticed his ID in the movie "Gran Torino" had 6'1" listed.

Each case can be argued individually, of course, but were many of the main actors in several of Eastwood's films actually over 6 feet? Maybe, but I'm no more certain of that than I am of Eastwood's actual height in his prime.
If you're not aware of how many guys over 6 ft were in his films then you're probably not in a place to really judge his height. Virtually every film of his , particularly in the 1960s-1980s period had multiple guys over 6ft and often had a fair few co stars of similar height.

...though I stand by my consistant comments that Eastwood was generally 6'3-ish in his prime, I don't claim to know, for certain. But, the other independant variables often cited, here, are other actors' heights. Having met several in my lifetime, what I do know is that many of them were hardly what their official heights stated. And, even if I didn't know their officially listed height, I immediately knew that some of their co-stars who's height "was" listed couldn't possibly be as tall as "their official heights, based on what I was seeing as the height of the guy I met.

Also if you look through Rock Hudson's filmography, particularly 50s, a lot of his roles were around women, not many of Eastwood's films involved him being in romantic roles around women.

That's because in most of his films anon a lot of his co stars were six footers themselves. Look at Magnum Force, Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Eiger Sanction and Escape from Alcatraz for instance.
These were films where most of the main actors were over 6 ft. If you look through his back log of films you'll find most of them in fact have multiple guys over 6 ft in them.

Great find Parker!! Rock Hudson was pretty much 6'5" peak, Eastwood pretty much 6'4, Hudson certainly looks no more than 4 cm taller in the comparison, and Eastwood's posture is poorer. You could argue half an inch shorter for both, but all the "Eastwood was 6'2-6'3" max is nonsense.

I agree Arch, Clint's not the BS type. In the military ones height is usually rounded up to the nearest whole inch. Nothing wrong with a person saying he is 6'4" if he is 6'3.5". Clint may have even been 6' 3.75".
Yes James, A strong 6'3" guy would tower over most actors who are generally short or average height.

...2 opposite statements, here. 1) I still think, based on everything from still pictures, to scenes with other actors, to appearances with other actors...that he was 6'4 out of bed or at his absolute peak, but more 6'3.5-ish in general. BUT....I have never seen that footage of him with Rock Hudson. I'm assuming the Youtube clip is actually Eastwood and Hudson. If that's the case, I don't think there's any doubt Hudson was a big man. And Eastwood looks about even with him. I was quite shocked, actually, to see this. All I know is, 6'4 guys tower over people. I never see Eastwood as doing that in most of his films. I'm not saying this Youtube footage completely changes my mind, but it sure shakes things up. Hudson was easily at least a couple inches taller than Peter Breck in a McMillan and Wife, and Breck was 6'2.

While Eastwood isn't the BS type, the publicists paid by the studios to capture the attention of the audience certainly are. One could argue, BS is all they do. Given that, was Eastwood ever six foot four? Doubtful. But given how short many actors are, he could pass for it by comparison.

Even if he was 6ft3 and not 6ft4 he s still lost at least 3inches.lf you can belive he lost 3 why not 4?lf he was lying about his height and had normal aging shrinkage,that would have made him between 6ft1 and 6ft2 peak.If he was that height then there will have to be a lot of down grades.Mybe Rock Hudson was only 6ft3.5.

Considering Bradley appears to have footwear advantage, Clint still looks close to 6' at 85 years of age.
more like the other way around and i think cooper's listing is generous but eastwood's posture looks terrible.

Even if he was say 6ft3 peak that would mean a loss of 3inches that is still more than the average height loss,so there is some sort of health problem there,unless his height at peak was only 6ft2 or 6ft1.5 and all his costars in his films also lied about there hights too.

Losing 4 inches just because of age seems unlikely. I'm pretty sure he never had any extensive back surgeries. I think on average people tend to lose 1-2" max. He just exaggerated his height back in the day.

Bradley Cooper looks a good 1.5" taller than Clint today based on that pic. He's certainly not 6'0.5" (which would put him at taller than Cooper) as Rob has him listed. I'm sort of surprised you're ignoring very good evidence Rob.

Quartt, I am not debating with anyone. I do not believe that Eastwood was 6'4" peak. That's my opinion and alot of people agree with it.
Yes, but a lot of people don't, and thankfully one is the editor of this site. 6'4 for Eastwood at peak. He said himself he was 6'4 at age 15. Why on earth would he lie? He had 2 inches over 6'2 Robert Urich in Magnum Force, same height as 6'4 George Kennedy in the Eiger Sanction.
Considering Bradley appears to have footwear advantage, Clint still looks close to 6' at 85 years of age.

Quartt, I am not debating with anyone. I do not believe that Eastwood was 6'4" peak. That's my opinion and alot of people agree with it.

Rob is it possible Clint Eastwood could be 5ft 11.5in now will you downgrade his current height at some point he will be 85 this year he could be 5ft 10in when he is 90 and 5ft 9in when he is 95 there is a chance he could lose even more height in a span between 5 years and 10 years.

Editor Rob Looking 5ft 11.5 but measuring taller - I believe Clint can look smaller than he might actually measure.

If Clint was not 6ft4 peak that means George Kennedy was not 6ft4 because both men wete the same hight in iger sanction and tunderbolt.As for Arnold he is a well knowen lift wearer and always stands with perfect posture.If you had a young Clint and a young Arnold standing beside each other bear foot both in perfect posture i think Clint would have about3inches on him,but we dont.If Clint was not6ft4 peak and only 6ft2.5 you will have to down grade lots of actors like Lee Marvin ,Rock Hudson ,George Kennedy ,Graeg Wallcot etc.

Ron B. saying 'I am right does not win a debate', providing evidence and explaining does. Produce full length pictures of clint looking 6'2 in the 70s. You so far have just produced a list of people who you think lie about their height. The problem I have is when I look at photos of those people with other celebrities I end up having to downgrade everybody including people with photos with rob. Do we downgrade Rob to 5'6 1/2 ouch e.g. Rob with larry holmes, larry holmes with ali and ali with clint

I checked out that episode and yeah he looks the same height as Woody Strode. This indicates 6'4'' as you say but then as always unless you have seen someone in person it's hard to be certain about someone's height and even then how do you tell 6'4'' from 6'3'' or 6'5''.

Sincerly rob i have always been skeptical about his 6'4"...i think that he was a strong 6'3" is likelier!
For example, in 1973 (Eastwood was 43) had a role in a movie with David Soul, who you met and you listed him at 5'11" and 6'0.5" peak. Personally I think he was a flat 6'0" is S&H, but maybe he actually was 6'0.5".
However, the topic of the comment is that in 1973 between Soul and Eastwood there weren't 3.5" for sure! Eastwood had max 2-2,5" on him (being very generous 3") and I don't think Soul wore lifts there.
IMO Eastwood was a strong 6'3" at peak and today is in the 6' zone, but with bad posture make him appear shorter!

In an episode of rawhide he is the same hight as 6ft4 Woody Strode.I think in his youth if he was not 6ft4 he was very near to it.People just have to belive that like Heston he has lost a lot of hight as he aged,also Garner and ive noticed Donald Sutherland has droped a few inches too.

I saw Ali about 15 years ago on a flight to LA. The first thing I said to myself, after 'Wow,' that's Muhhmad Ali' was Jesus, I never thought he was so tall. I grew up in the 80's and he was still a big star, but whenever I saw him on TV I figured he was just an average guy 5 11 or 6 foot, but I would say even when I saw him in c. 2000 he could have been 6' 3 easy, and this was old and bent with Parkinson's, so I have no trouble believing the 6'3 during his fighting days.
Foreman always looked bigger to me, but they were listed at the same height. The eye plays tricks. I also give Clint 6'4 without much disbelief. It's guys like Shwarznegger and Stalone who are always borrowing inches.
By the way height should not be mistaken for presence. At his full height my Dad was just under 6feet, but people always remember him to me as much taller. They also always credit him with a full head of hair when he was actually receeding like Jack Nicholson, so glamour however understood can deceive.

That Ali put 6'2.5 on his passport I think is honest, I don't think he's the sort of guy who'd BS about that, and it's not as if you could argue it was a shoe measurement as under 6'2" peak for him is silly. If Clint hadn't have been noticeably taller he's not said anything. And I don't think Clint was really the sort of guy who'd BS about it if he wasn't really near it. He had the legs of am even taller guy of something like 6'5-6'6" guy.

There are photos from the 70's where Arnold towers Stallone in the gym while Sly has footwear advantage. Clint at a flat 6'3 peak is rubbish he was a towering figure in Rawhide during the 50's and in all the Sergio Leone Westerns after that. In Dirty Harry he looked more 6'3.5 So even by the 70's i thought he had maybe lost a fraction. Was for sure close to 6'4.

If Arnold was as low as 5.10,what about all the photos of him with Clint were Clint is not much taller.He would have had to be wearing 4inch lifts to get near Clints hight even if Clint was 6ft3.

I stood next to Arnold in Sun Valley Idaho at a high end Craft Fair. This was 1996. There is no way he was near 6 foot. I would guess 5'10". He was wide and a broad shouldered man for sure, but his height was no where near his claimed height. My father, who was there as well could not believe how "short" he was as we all have this mental image of Arnold in our minds.

Rob, is it possible for someone that tall to lose so much height? Eastwood is in his eighties, but is in remarkably good shape considering.
I wonder how long he'll keep working. At 84 he's made the Guinness Book of World Records for being the oldest film director still on the job. American Sniper is a terrific film.

I think posture is very important when judging Clints hight,he can easley drop 2inches with bad posture.If he can look 6ft even at 84 with Cooper,he could be taller if he stood stright for a change.I think he was 6ft4 standing stright with very good posture as a very young man,but he never stands like this in everyday life he is always in bad posture.So its very hard to judge him in his youth and old age.

...obviously, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. But, there seems to be a semi-consensus that Eastwood was losing height, even by the 1980's. Personally, I find that ridiculous, and the only changes I see in him by the 1980's are that his pompadour hair was much flatter due to thinning, and he had gained a good degree of bulk, off and on, for various films. I think he looked about 6'3-plus-ish, in the 1980's, because he was never really over that, unless you count just being out of bed or footwear. Now the mid-1990's, that's when things did begin changing. A little over 6 foot now, from a little over 6'3-ish. The fact is, if you use your thumb and first finger to show the span of 3 inches, it really isn't as much as you think. The man always had kind of a slightly curved spine...and I don't mean the "hump". From front on, it's like his spine was always in the position of a slight question mark.

Is maybe similar to Wayne a guy who was just a quarter inch short of the 6'4 mark. Id bet on that more than him being a 6'4.25 guy at peak. Small fractions though i think his 6'4 claim is fair just like John Wayne's claim.

He has dowangers hump. Most men who were his height at his age shrink to 6'2-6'2.5" but that makes you lose much more height than normal.
No, the majority of his height loss comes from scoliosis of the spine. The hump (from Osteoporosis) doesn't help though,

By Dead Pool (1986), he had definitely lost some height next to Liam Neeson, where as if he had stood next to him in the 1970's, you probably couldn't separate the 2 heights from each other.

Yeah you're right Damimal I think, generally I think he started looking 6'3" range by 1982-3, in Firefox and Sudden Impact age seemed to be getting its hold on him, certainly by Pale Rider he was no longer looking a full 6'4".
Yeah, in Escape from Alcatraz (1979), he still looked 6'4", but those 4 years in between that and Sudden Impact (never saw Firefox, so I can't comment on 1982), he did appear to have lost some height. I don't think that it was age as much as his scoliosis started to become noticeable.

Yeah you're right Damimal I think, generally I think he started looking 6'3" range by 1982-3, in Firefox and Sudden Impact age seemed to be getting its hold on him, certainly by Pale Rider he was no longer looking a full 6'4".

Nah Joe he looked 6'3.5-6'4" range I thought up until early 80s. Firefox (1982) was the first film I thought he looked more 6'3 range than 6'4". There's one scene in which he's stood in the doorway in the cafe in Sudden Impact (1983) in the iconic "Make my day" scene though where he still looked easily 6'4".

I think he was close to 6'4" in the 1960s, when he was Dirty Harry in the 1970s he looked 6'3". By the late 80s and 90s he was around 6'2". There were a few photos of Eastwood with Scwharzeneegger in the 1990s, and Eastwood seemed to be an inch taller and Arnie's peak height was 6'1" (although he claimed to be 6'2"), He also had an inch on Harrison Ford in the 1990s as well. He lost a lot of height, he is now nearly 84 years old.

No human WALKING (try a wheelchair) this earth can lose nearly 4 inches. I think his peak was more likely 6'3... and today 6'1. Thats fair enough, and "only" a 2 inches loss.

Editor Rob thoracic kyphosis, ankylosing spondylitis, scoliosis (when an adult), osteoporosis...these can lead to large losses in height.

He has dowangers hump. Most men who were his height at his age shrink to 6'2-6'2.5" but that makes you lose much more height than normal.

Eastwood was never a full 6'4". My most educated guess would be 6'2.5" maybe 6'3" in his peak. He lost height even during his peak career acting years. I think he was 6'2" around the time he was portraying Dirty Harry.
Are you kidding me? In Magnum Force (1973) he had 3" on then 6'1" Hal Holbrook, 2" on Tim Matheson, about 3.5" on David Soul, 2" on 6'2" Robert Urich. Just watch the movie for yourself. That said, he DID began to look shorter by Sudden Impact (1983).

To those claiming he's 6'1" today, he's not even close to that. He was struggling with 6'0" flat already for a few years now. Wouldn't be surprised if he's 5'11" today.

I agree with those who claim 6'3.5"-6'4" peak, 6'3" by the early 90s, 6'0"-6'1" today for Clint. I guess there were always be those who think Clint was at peak only about 6'2" but those people are wrong. 90% of Clint's co-stars from the 60s and 70s would need to be shrunk an inch or two from their listings.

If you doubt Charlton Heston was 6'2.5 see Wreck of the Mary Deare and Touch of Evil. Barely shorter than Gary Cooper and could look 2 inches taller than Orson Welles in some scenes.

Click Here Not sure when that was taken but compare the chin levels.. 6'3.5" peak is arguable I think like Wayne but neither of them really generally looked under it. By the late 80s and early 90s though I'd agree he was looking 6'3" flat.

He lost a lot of his height whether he was 6'4" or 6'3", I genuinely believe that his peak height was 6'3". I still do not buy he was full 6'4" in his younger years. In one of the Academy Awards, Eastwood stood with Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg. Ford was allegedly 6'1" in his prime, and Eastwood appeared to be only an inch or two taller than Ford. Regardless he was still a big guy when he was in his prime.
That was the 1990s, he'd already lost height by then. Compare him to Charlton Heston at the 1972 awards I think it was and you'll see he was noticeably taller. Heston wasn't far off 6'3" himself.

If Eastwood was just 6'2", Don Stroud was 5'11" range in Coogan's Bluff and Lee Marvin struggling with 6' in Paint your Wagon !! Seriously, there's a wealth of evidence to indicate 6'4" on the nose peak. 6'3.5-6'4 is arguable but anything under that, especially sub 6'32 is laughable. Yes, with poor posture he could often seem shorter, but I think it's pretty clear he was very close to it.

Editor Rob someone had asked about when he lost height. It is hard to say, but there was a scene in the Rookie I think it was inside a house and he briefly had a conversation with Tom Skerritt and I thought looked about 4 inches taller, so pulling 6ft 3 off in early 90's still possible.

In the Eiger Sanction Eastwood looked very similar to George Kennedy and Gregory Walcott, in fact Eastwood edged out Walcott in that film although it looked the other way around in Joe Kidd. If
you've seen the Naked Gun you'll know that Kennedy was easily 3 than O.J. Simpson who was supposed to have been measured at 6'1 in his football days.

@filmfan, I think it's all just an educated guess, you can see Clint's curved back if you look closely at pictures in the last 15 years or so, it can even appear he has a "dowager's hump" at the top of his back. I always come him to Sidney Poitier has another older guy who had the luck to maintain straight back and seemed to have lost almost nothing with age, at least until the last couple years.

Difficult to pinpoint exactly where he began losing height Bud but he could give a bit smaller impression even in films like Firefox and Sudden Impact in 1982-3 and barely edged out Moriatry in Pale Rider. I think he looked more a strong 6'3" throughout most of the 80s, but he didn't seem to generally look sub 6'3" really until about 1994 or 1995. Bridges of Madison County was one of the first I think where he really looked 6'2" range.

I believe Clint's peak height was 6'3", w/o shoes. I do not think he was a legitimate 6'4". Yes, he did look taller in some of his movies but he had a lean rangy body type which can make him seem a bit taller. A legitimate 6'3" nothing to sneeze at.

Most guys lose more than 1" by 84. In fact, the average man loses 1.2" by 70, and 2" by 80. Clint is in his mid 80's and has severe scoliosis.

I agree with filmfan always looked around 190 or191 to me peak.Now around 183 to 185 depending on posture.You just have to look at the clip on youtube with 193Harve Presnel and 188 Mahommad ali Clint is shorter than Presnel by at least an inch and taller than ali by about an inch,and that was in 1970 when he was at his peak.Also l think a lot of the old stars of the time lied about their hight and added about an inch.

Dang, 4 inches?! My granddad was about 6'2 in his prime and was still there by the time he died a few years back, and he did real extensive hard labor too, which is a lot more than a Hollywood star would go through. Wonder what cause such a dramatic shrink.

Haha the eyebrows hair and tan yeah. Obviously generally he looks like neither of them but he could certainly look like Clint from a distance in cowboy garb and beard. I thought that in Yellow Sky, a surprisingly good film actually.

It could have been Sondra Locke! I think it's probably genetic. Eastwood was the poster boy for healthy living in an industry plagued with drug and alcohol problems. He did work out a lot though and lift a lot of weights, his height loss seems to be pretty similar to some of the bodybuilder types.

Eastwood's height loss is real bad. My uncle whose around the same age was 6ft5 peak and is still at least 6ft4 today. Almost like the polar opposite of this dude. No serious injuries, been married to the same woman for 40+ years (a statuesque 5ft11) and generally has a positive outlook on life.

Clint has lost quite a bit of height due to aging. Back in the day, he was an intimidating guy. I met him, kind of, in California when I was a kid. My Dad and I got lost in Carmel, where Clint lives or used to live, and we stopped for directions at a convenience store. My father and I parked and stopped short of going in the store b/c Clint was walking out. I was probably 10 years old but I knew exactly who he was. Before I know it, my father was asking him for directions to our hotel. Clint could not have been more kind if he tried! He spent nearly 5 minutes directing us and part of what I remember is how huge he was next to my father. Keep in mind, I was about 10 and my dear old Dad is 5'6" on a grand day. After we got in the car, I told my Dad that we just got directions from "Dirty Harry." Great memory. Based on pics of Clint, I give him a 6'4" as an absolute max. He was tall on screen but he never, at least in my eyes had that looming feature that really tall actors have. These days, 6'2 absolute max. Hell of a nice guy!

Shrugs :-) I must admit that it's difficult to see him at 6 ft 6 in cowboy boots. I mean you can see 6 ft 5 but 6'6. Especially with the hat etc. But unless everybody elses heights are exaggerated I think there's enough proof to indicate 6'4 ish. In some cases he could look 194 actually, next to Lee Marvin and Rock Hudson for starters but generally 6'3.5-6'4 range like John Wayne.

roy, clint portrayed the blondie in the good, the bad and the ugly in 1966. he was 36 so in the core of his peak height and the editor rob said he was 6'4" when was young...6'0.5" it's his current height (2014) not peak...maybe you did not pay attention...
however i think he has never been a full 6'4", like tom selleck or Christopher Reeve...i would put him at 6'3.5".

The shortest clint looked in his 'prime' from the films I have seen him in is probably a few dollars more where he looked 6ft2ish quite a lot.

@James, They were a close item in real life from around 1975 to about 1984 I think so not surprising they often appeared together in a number of films during that period. Yeah, seems an odd choice, I mean a guy like Clint Eastwood, especially as a big movie star could have had any woman in the world, and in fairness he did have a lot of them from what I've read. Sondra Locke is one of those women who are not conventionally "beautiful", a bit scrawny and wide-eyed looking, like a lost animal or something, but I do get that she had that sexual thing which could captivate men Click Here

The Gauntlet is one of my favourites of his, a very underrated action film. I suspect it's where Dolph got the inspiration with Joshua Tree which has some similarities in locations and on the run sort of thing with girl.

Well, "a big 6'4" guy". A majority of these pictures have already been on here. There are some pictures where he does indeed look more a weak-to-strong 6'3":

w/ 6'3" Michael Moriaty (not standing even, at times in Pale Rider Clint could look near an inch over him) Click Here
w/ 6'2" Gene Hackman Click Here
w/ 6'1.5" Jeff Bridges (bad shot, both are dropping height) Click Here
w/ 6'0.5" David Soul Click Here
w/ 6'4" Liam Neeson (again not the best) Click Here
w/ 6'3" Buddy Ebsen (there Clint even looks sub-6'3", weird shot) Click Here
But then, there's occasions where IMO he could really pass as 6'4"
w/ 6'2" Lee Marvin Click Here
w/ 6'4" George Kennedy (Kennedy's dropping more) Click Here

w/ 6'2" Lee Van Cleef (both dropping height, more so Van Cleef) Click Here

You could argue 6'3"-6'4" range, maybe 6'3.75" like Wayne but generally a flat 6'3" doesn't fit Eastwood pre-height loss!

Like Arch said people have no clue how tall a legit 6'5 really is. For those who say no way is robbins between 6'4-6'5 he must be nearer 6'6 they think that because 6'3 guys claim to be 6'4 or 6'5 hence distorting our view of how big 6'4-6'5 range is.
No. You shouldn't speak for everyone like that. I think Tim Robbins is at least 6'6" because he had at least 2" on 6'4" Conan O'brien, Over 3" on 6'2.5" listed John Cusack and the list goes on.

There's a prominent leader in our small town who has said he's 6'4, going back 20 years. He's maybe early 60's, now. Neither then nor now was he imposing. Tall, yes, but I'm 6'0, and if he's telling the truth, 6'4 to a 6'0 guy is not imposing. BUT, my guess is he, like Eastwood, was never really 6'4, ut was measured one day, EARLY in the morning, and was close enough to 6'4 to claim so, but really 6'3. Add a slouch and age past 70

I admit i've never seen any movies of him when he was young... But was he really a big 6'4 guy? I mean, when i think to big 6'4 guys i think to a Jared Padalecki or Alexander Skargard, who always look very tall. It seems Arch is really convinced he was near that mark and he usually is very good in estimating heights... Today he looks 6' range, how did he lose 4 inches?

That link doesn't work for me, Arch. There's a good chance Clint was 6'3.75" for a beter of the day like Wayne.
I doubt Eastwood himself would put himself near the level as Day-Lewis, De Niro, Nicholson or Pacino, but I think as a director, he's good at recognizing acting talent in others. I respect him most as a director, secondarily as an actor and least as a politican (ignoring his love life on purpose!)

There's a prominent leader in our small town who has said he's 6'4, going back 20 years. He's maybe early 60's, now. Neither then nor now was he imposing. Tall, yes, but I'm 6'0, and if he's telling the truth, 6'4 to a 6'0 guy is not imposing. BUT, my guess is he, like Eastwood, was never really 6'4, ut was measured one day, EARLY in the morning, and was close enough to 6'4 to claim so, but really 6'3. Add a slouch and age past 70, and you have 6' to 6'1. As for acting, if someone is both believable and entertaining in a role, they're a good actor in my book. I don't care about range, or if they can cry or if they are really just playing themselves. If I believe them and am entertained (Eastwood in his Dirty harry movies, or comedies), it's good acting. Most Acadamy Award winners are boring actors, to me.

Yeah Sutherland had Connery by an easy 2 inches in The Great Train Robbery.
Easy 2 inches? I am starting to suspect thst Connery could have been 6'1.75 peak. If Donald was that much taller then it would mean by 1987 Connery was 6'1-6'1.25 range.

Clint in his prime could have been 2 inches taller than a peak sean Connery believe it or not. I am skeptical of the 6'2 1/2 claims for Connery since by the end of 70s he was looking 2 inches shorter than Sutherland. High chance sean was 6'1.5 by 1978.
Arch has pointed out that clint edged out Donald in Kelly's heroes which is decent evidence that clint Eastwood truly was 6'4. Donald was like 35 in that film so unlikely he was dropping height by that stage? In invasion of the body snatchers jeff goldblum looked near 6'4 1/2 in comparison to Sutherland i think?
192cm is always possible for clint but for the time timebeing...........
Clint Eastwood 6'4 (193cm)
Donald Sutherland 6'3.5 (192cm)
Jeff Goldblum 6'4.25 (194cm)

As an actor of course Eastwood was never anywhere near as talented as the like of Daniel Day Lewis, Jack Nicholson, De Niro and Al Pacino for instance, and Sergio Leone was all too aware of that, but as a film star with a unique identity he's certainly right up there with the biggest film actors of all time and most of his films are the sort you can watch again and again so that says it all.

Yeha Sam I agree. I don't think Kyle or Scott come close to a peak Clint in looks. The thing is though Eastwood was never the best actor, certainly not a natural. A lot of his mannerisms are unintentional (like hissing his lines through his teeth etc) are just the way he was. I think in a lot of his roles he was being himself or at least exaggerating his true self which didn't require much exacting. I think his acting came through more in his more comic roles actually. He hit his peak as an actor in the 90s I think with some impressive performances but it is as a director he has been become accomplished I feel. Connery was never the greatest of actors either, but he had that leading man charisma and presence. Clint never had the smooth charm of Connery or Grant, but he definitely had that thing in a more rugged way. I'd put Cary Grant above both of them as an actor, his comic timing especially was brilliant but as Sam says you can't really compare them, they were three different actors, I don't think you can really compare any of them. They were unique and great for different reasons and great in the types of roles that they played. Clint was never intended as a romantic leading man type.

I don't know James, I suppose it is because they're far enough away from average that it becomes harder to guess. You know what it's like guessing people over 6 ft 8. The margin of error is greater. Over 6'4" guessing becomes more difficult.

Hmm, not sure what you mean on any of that...
Scott may be have more traditional good looks, if not his presence, charisma or directorial talent, but Kyle handsomer than Clint? I don't think so. Also, contend with Cary Grant? Cary Grant retired the same year that Clint got his breakthrough in A Fistfull of Dollars and they were 100% different kinds of actors/stars. Also, compared, Entertainment Weekly's list of 100 Greatest Movie Stars of all time listed Clint at 16 and Sean at 24...so, I think Eastwood more than contends with Connery in general.

Kyle inherited clint eastwoods height and Scott inherited clint eastwoods good looks. That said Kyle facially is a bit better looking that his dad was in his prime and Clint was more notorious for his westerns and Dirty Harry films than his looks. He did have charisma, charm and height on his side but he still could not contend with leading men like Cary Grant or Sean Connery

True Arch but clint was a proper 6'3-6'3.5 range barefoot in the 80s and you wouldn't guess him at 6'5 would you? I guess as well clint wasn't skinny but even in earlier films when he was slimmer did not look over 6'4.

Yeah James, a proper 6'4.5" barefoot will probably look 6'6" to most people anyway. And it's true that a lot of people underestimate how big a real 6'4.5-6'5" is. Just look at Guy Henry as your dad said!... My dad guessed Colin Salmon at 6'6 too!

Like Arch said people have no clue how tall a legit 6'5 really is. For those who say no way is robbins between 6'4-6'5 he must be nearer 6'6 they think that because 6'3 guys claim to be 6'4 or 6'5 hence distorting our view of how big 6'4-6'5 range is.

I think by 1988 he could look a bit over 6 ft 3 next to a bit over 6 ft 4 peak Neeson. He certainly didn't look 6'4" next to James Cromwell. But he could look near it still at times in some of his early 90s films.

I forgot about Heartbreak Ridge, I kind of liked it, a bit underrated but I recall it loses steam near the end. Not the best shot considering Eastwood's camera advantage, but definitively was taller than McGill. McGill was a big imposing guy, at times in other roles I thought he was 6'3"+ but he has to be a weak 6'3" compared to Clint.

We don't know McGills official height cause he is not listed on this site. 6'3.5 consistent in the 80s? Remember 6'4 Liam Neeson had 1 inch or so on him in dead pool and in heartbreak ridge he stood with military posture where I think McGill had more relaxed posture.

Slightly disagree Arch when he had on his officer uniform in that film he look slim/skinny. When he wore his tank top though he looked ripped and muscular. Personally i think in films like deapool, pink caddlilic and any which you can he looked really bulky and tough. In good the bad and ugly he looked well built also.
In heartbreak ridge his characters personality was as tough as hell that's for sure.

Hold the phone, here. Forget Robbins for a minute. Look at Eastwood next to Fishburne, in that photo posted by Rick. Eastwood has 2 to 3 inches on Fishburne, who is listed here, as anywhere between 5'10 and 6'0. Could it e Eastwood is still over 6 foot? But then again, Robbins looks huge next to him.

I wonder if Clint is conscious of the fact that he no longer (and hasn't for quite some time) towered over people the way he did in the past. Must feel strange to once have been 6'4" and now 6'0". You're staring eye to eye with another 6 footer, knowing that once you would have had 4" on that person. I wonder if it enters his mind?

Clint has always had a really bad posture & at 84 looks as if his chest has folded into his stomach, as well as his spine clearly bending to the side (the right). This would easily give a height loss of around 4 inches. I agree with comments made before ie how many 6'2" actors has he consistently been taller than by 2"? Either they are all lying by 2" or he was 6'4".....the latter is right. Also, he is the same height in every scene with Walcott in Joe Kidd on level ground

Arch - in some parts of hang em high clint Eastwood in terms of build reminded me a little of Jeff goldblum in the lost world. He didn't look quite as tall as Jeff but you know that long legged 'tall and lanky'' vibe.
In the the late 70s and onwards that is when he started too look less proportioned since his torso was in the early stages of shrinking by that stage.
