His peak was more than just a quarter of 6-4. He has said 6-5 too, which is closer to the truth. Look at his early films.
thekiddd said on 14/Sep/08
Lister can't be 6'5 1/2" if he is listed in his official site says 6'5". Lundgren might be 6'4 1/2" but I don't believe anything higher than that.
Big King said on 6/Sep/08
Also the well known 5'10" tall actress, Catherine Bell appeared in one film together with Lundgren. I'm sure that Lundgren is not 6'6" but he seemded to be almost eight inches taller than Bell. So, I would give Lundgren 6'5" or 6'4 3/4" but 6'5" is where I can mess. Also Lister seemed to be almost an inch taller than Lundgren but I'm sure that there was at least a half inch difference between them.
Dolph Lundgren - 6'5"
Tiny Lister - 6'5 1/2"
That's the result!
Martin said on 5/Sep/08
He told on the swedish radio show called "Sommar i P1", this summer, that he is 195 cm tall.
thekiddd said on 3/Sep/08
Stallone could pass for 5'10". Not 5'11". That would put Lundgren at 6'3" which I don't think is true but could possibly pass for it.
RisingForce said on 30/Aug/08
Sorry one of the Stallone and Lundgren pictures didn't work.
Click HereI believe Sly to be 5'10.75" and Dolph is 6 inches taller so that puts him at 6'4.75" so his 195 cm sounds right.
thekiddd said on 30/Aug/08
He can appear like a 6'5" man but 6'6", no way Jose. He is possibly 6'4 1/2" but I think 6'4" solid is pretty much it since he looked about 7" taller than Stallone in Rocky IV
Ben said on 29/Aug/08
Daniel.. Ben stiller in tropic thunder is in better shape then lundgren now.... But back in the day there was no comparison (dont know if dolph was natural)
When i say it out loud though it does sound a little wrong.
Cobra said on 28/Aug/08
Dolph weighed 110 kg- 240 lbs for his role in Rocky IV. He said it himself, I think it`s true. Drago in the movie was advertised as 261 lbs.
Bobby said on 27/Aug/08
I realize this site concerns HEIGHT, however would anyone have the know on Dolph's WEIGHT at the time of rocky 4? I myself am the same height, around 6'4.5", and his look is my fitness goal. Any and all help in truly appreciated.
adam said on 27/Aug/08
Well this is again one of the very few things in this site that is a bit wrong -Lundgren wasn
Andrew said on 26/Aug/08
My brother saw him in a club in Geneva (switzerland), he was next to him. Dolph putted his hand on my bro's shoulder and smiled (because he knew he recognized him). My brother at that period (around 2003) was 190cm, he told me Dolph's shoulders level was a little higher than him, so Dolph's around 192-193cm.
BTW he was very friendly, not arrogant as some may be.
RisingForce said on 25/Aug/08
Dolph is about 6 inches taller than Stallone who I believe is 5'10.5"/5'10.75"
tp://tinyurl.com/5cpv9g
However he only has 2.5" or 3" max on Stallone when Sly has his lifts.
Click HereSo I think Dolph is 6'4.5" or 6'4.75". Maybe a weak 6'5" but probably slightly less. 195 cm sounds good.
King said on 21/Aug/08
Well, I saw the film The Man of War already yesterday and Dolph appeared to have the same height as Tiny Lister, maybe a half inch shorter. 6'5" sounds good for Lundgren but everything under 6'5" is underestimated, I think.
Djuro said on 18/Aug/08
I saw him out in NYC a few times - he is 6'2/6'3 tops.
1990boy said on 23/Jul/08
I'd say Dolph is no less than 6'3.5" and no more than 6'5".

Ben Stiller? What the hell are you talking about? Are you nuts? Stop smoking that sh*t, man!
Ben said on 11/Jul/08
Dolph really looks to have lost height over the years, in rocky 4 his traps and neck looked far longer, maybe it was his hair that made him look that way, but now he seems to have really lost height in that area.
Its amazing when i was 15yrs old i used to think he was a beast, now his physique isnt that special compared to what we see, even ben stiller seems to match it some of his films.

If Lundgren wasn't at least 6'5'' by the time Rocky IV was made, then Stallone wasn't more than 5'7'', which is obviously ridiculous.

"My father is a childhood friend (acquaintance) of him and according to my dad, he was around 195 centimetres give or take, in his 20.s." As I said, over 195 cm is what my father told me. That's about 6'5". He was a little shorter when I met him, but still more than an inch taller than me so definetly around 6'4 if not taller. I am, for the record 6'2.75.
thekiddd said on 31/May/08
Well, I'm pretty sure we can argue to death on Dolph's Height. But as far as I'm concerned, Rob is going to keep him at a strong 6'4" forever.

it isnt as easy as it seems.have to dig it up,which luckily in this case i think i know where it is.then i have to find time and a place to scan it in my busy schedule.there are tons of cool pics the site has never seen.hopefully,we will get them all up over time.
thekiddd said on 29/May/08
Hey Glenn, when are you going to put your photo of dolph on this site? I read below that you were going to submit one but that was dated 2 years ago. When are you going to put it up?
thekiddd said on 27/May/08
Ola, he isn't taller or the same height as Lister and Moeller. He look a little bit shorter than them.
thekiddd said on 27/May/08
I have never read any source claiming he was 6'6' Razor. Half of them say 6'4", the other half say either 6'4 3/4" or 6'5".
RAZOR said on 24/May/08
Lundgren is one of the biggest jokers ever. His peak height is 6'5". I dunno why they come up to 6'6".
thekiddd said on 21/May/08
Yeah. Lundgren probably thought 6'4 1/4" was close enough to claim 6'4". A strong 6'4" is probably it 6'4 1/2" MAX.
Yaspaa said on 20/May/08
The shoulder height gives the best comparison,Dolph's wider stance wouldn't give that much. 6'4.25 seems correct ( I was blown away and gutted when I found that he wasn't at least 6'5),very close to 6'6 for Ralph.
Inturnitator said on 16/May/08
OK but that would put Lundgren to 6'4 1/2" if he's 193cm at least.
thekiddd said on 15/May/08
You know supes, you do have a point but if you also look again, you can see that Lundgren is a step ahead of the camera from Moeller and Lister. All and All, I would say he is a little bit shorter than list like maybe 1 or 1/2 inch shorter than the 6'5er.
Height Tracker said on 13/May/08
I agree with supes78
supes78 said on 12/May/08
But carefully look at that photo by ronyo98 and notice that Dolph's feet are placed very far apart in relation to everyone else and that his head is also tilted down. If he corrected this, I have no doubt that we could see a more accurate height assessment of him.
thekiddd said on 12/May/08
Lister looks just a small margin shorter than Moeller. As for Lundgren I agree, he can't be 6'5" next to them.
miki said on 11/May/08
he is 1.95 cm barefoot
ronyo98 said on 11/May/08
Well Rob has Ralph at 197cm and Lister at 196. But according to this picture
Click Here they are the same height.. Dolph, if he would be standig straight, is 194cm.
Height Tracker said on 10/May/08
In that pic Bruce posted I would say that Ralph is just ever so slighly (about .5 inch) taller than Lister. And if Dolph were to put his legs together and stand straighter he would be about 1.5 to 2 inches shorter than Moeller. That puts him in the 6'4" range.
Bruce said on 9/May/08
Think it's tiny lister. Ralph and Tiny 6'5", Dolph 6'4".
ronyo98 said on 8/May/08
here's an interesting picture:

Dolph is slouching a bit and he's legs are more apart. but if he was standig

Like I said, maybe not quite 6'5" when he was younger. Do you think that's a possibility Glenn? Over 6'4" but not quite 6'5"?

thekiddd said on 26/Apr/08
Dolph was definitely never 6'6", I'll tell you that much. If he told Glenn he was 6'5", he isn't 6'6" for sure. But the thing is, he did claim 6'4" and that is smaller than 6'5" and usually when actors/actresses quote their height of a smaller number, it is probably the correct answer.
Scott B said on 25/Apr/08
Dolph was between 6'5 and 6'6 at his peak. He had 4 inches on Carl 6'1 Weathers in Rocky. Stallone wears Huge Lifts.
thekiddd said on 23/Apr/08
He could have lost height. He is like 50.
Yaspaa said on 22/Apr/08
Dolph has said he is many different heights over the years. Your friend said he was 2-3 inches shorter so its not 6'3 it's 6'2-6'3. INSANE!!

Ok, ok, die-hards! Lundgren is 6'3'', so Stallone is 5'6'', Schwarzenneger is 5'10'', Van Damme is 5'5'' and I am 4'11''.
tllgUK said on 21/Apr/08
Yaspaa> Go watch the film for yourself. It's called 'Retrograde'. And 6'3" is 'hilariously insane'? That's pretty funny considering that Dolph himself said he was 6'3" now in the tv4 thing. Guess he must be a liar or a nugget though too, huh?
thekiddd said on 15/Apr/08
I changed my mind. I am going to say..... more than 6'4", but not quite 6'5".

Carl Weathers isn't 6'2". And he was very tall no doubt but didn't even look close to seven feet.

supes78 said on 22/Mar/08
No way on earth he is 6'5"? Give me a break. There's no photographic proof of the guy being 6'3" tall. If there were, Rob would be the first to downgrade the man. And I think Glenn could tell the difference between 6'3" and 6'5" considering the tall celebs he's met. I think Dolph is 6'5" as he claims.

tllgUK said on 20/Mar/08
Dolph is a big guy for sure - BUT, there is no way on earth that he is 6'5". I know somebody very well that starred in a certain b-movie with him back in 2004. They are a true 6'5" themselves, and Dolph was clearly between 2 to 3" shorter than them in the one scene that they appear together in. Dolph therefore CANNOT be more than 6'3" - absolute maximum.
thekiddd said on 18/Mar/08
194 cm could be either 6'4 1/2" or 6'4 1/4". Unless you count the small decimal you won't know for sure.

Well, whatever Dolph Lundgren's height is (and he looks all of 194cm, Helmut Kohl is 189cm and Kohl looks way way shorter than Lundgren despite Kohl's big girth) . . .. he is biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiggg and he is beautiful!
thekiddd said on 13/Mar/08
Just a tiny margin over 6'4"? he could have been rounding off since 6'4 1/4" is closer to 6'4" than 6'5".
dmeyer said on 3/Mar/08
i think 195 peak 193 now a 2 cm loss by 50 is possible for someone that tall i think 1 cm loss at 50 is for people 5'8 to 6 ft ,rob is the height loss more sever when you are 6'5 than when you are 5'7

yes, I believe that true. A lot of people would like to believe others are shorter than claimed...and in some cases its true..but in other cases they truly are tall. From what I can tell, Dolph is at least 6'5" as other people on this web site who are in the 6'4 to 6'5" range and have actually met him claim that he really is very tall.

He was probably 1.5 inches taller taller than me at that time(I am 190,2 cm or 6'2,78" according to a laser measurement from the technical museum in Gothenburg (Universeum) and I was measured in the middle of the day). My father is a childhood friend (acquaintance) of him and according to my dad, he was around 195 centimetres give or take, in his 20.s. When me, my brother and my dad met him in Stockholm in spring last year, he looked like he had shrunked a bit.
supes78 said on 22/Jan/08
He was on a local Dallas radio station this morning talking about his new movie Missionary Man, which he filmed in Dallas several months ago. He recounted the story about how he got his big break in Rocky IV and that he was 6'5" and deemed too tall for the part. I've always felt Dolph was 6'5" because he looks it and that's what I've always heard the man say in any interview.

I believe both the 6'4" and the 6'5" claim. He may have been measured once first thing in the morning and once at night. As for Ralph Moeller, Rob has him too low. Whatever Dolph is, Ralph is taller. AT LEAST 6'6" BARE MINIMUM. Some say 6'7" and 6'8" too for him.
Gago said on 28/Dec/07
I met Dolph in LA when he was trying to release his movie The Mechanik, he's 50 now and seems like he lost about 0'5, so he's between 191-192.

I agree with the 6'5". He towers over everybody in crowds.
Brock said on 23/Dec/07
I played pro football for the Solna Chiefs (Stockholm) in 2001 and had the opportunity to meet Dolph. He was an honorary captain and did the coin toss at one of our games. I'm 6'1 and he dwarfed me by a good 4-5 inches. I'd say he's at LEAST 6'5. He's lost a lot of his muscle mass but he's still pretty cut and he is a tall fella.

I walked past Dolph on the river walk in San Antonio, Texas. I am 6'4'' tall and he was taller than I. I have no doubt that he is 6'5". With shoes he may have been 6'6". I agree with other peoples' posts on other celebs when they say that you need to see them in person. Also, I think people tend to want to believe others are shorter than they really are.
glenn said on 16/Dec/07
dolph has told me himself he is 6-5.
supes78 said on 16/Dec/07
I've always heard Dolph refer to himself as 6'5" tall and he looks it. And it's been well established on this site that Stallone is not a good gauge for measuring people's heights since he wears monster lifts in all of his shoes. Not to metion the guy has impeccable posture when he tries to strain every last morsel of height he can in photos. A guy Dolph's size is always more natural in photos and even slouched at times to compensate for much smaller people.
Danimal said on 16/Dec/07
If Dolph is 6'5", the Sylvester Stallone is 6'2" nowadays.

1 inch footwear advantage?!?!?!?!.....are you serious mate?
Vegas, i usually agree with you on most things, but this is simply not true, ask rob.... its a known fact that sports sneakers like the ones worn on the second pic can give MORE height that those dolph is wearing.... infact, when i wear my sneakers im taller than when i wear my boots similar to those dolph is wearing in the 2nd pic. (and look closely man, they arent big boots)
The footwear is near even, and a one inch advantage is silly.
supes78 said on 7/Nov/07
I don't see why you're taking Dolph at the lowest height he's given for himself when he's stated more frequently that he is 6'5" tall. Yet, stars like Lynda Carter have claimed anywhere from 5'8.5" to 5'10" tall and yet you take the highest height claim there. What gives?

Anyway, 6'4'' sounds too little for Lundgren, at least in his prime. I guess you should upgrade him to 6'5'', Rob.
Darkman said on 14/Oct/07
He did place himself as 6'5" on his myspace so he was probably never 6'6". But I think that 6'4" remark on that site is probably it. He wore big boots in little Tokyo so It was kind of hard to tell if he was above 6'4". Definitly was never 6'6" is what I think.
Daniel said on 12/Oct/07
I thought the same as you, Ray, until I came into this forum and read all these comments about people's height. Maybe 4 cm is too much height loss for a 50 years man in normal circumstances, but the fact is that Lundgren was at least 1.96 cm when younger. I don't know how tall he is right now. Rob, doesn't anybody have a photo with Dolph?
Ray said on 12/Oct/07
Who's gonna lose 4 cm in height ??? That's ridiculous. I am very suspect about people who claim to have lost this much height. You might lose 1 cm when you reach 50. Lundgren is 50 years old... btw.
Daniel said on 11/Oct/07
Yes, Lundgren could be 1.94m nowadays, but closer to 1.98m (6'6'') in his prime

Back in the 80's 90's he was 6'5 no doubt, but he has lost some height, thats for sure.... but looking back to rocky and then to showdown in little tokyo hes a 6'5 legit, no questions.... but nowadays i think hes lost an inch
Martin said on 12/Sep/07
I have seen him at the Metro Station in Stockholm a year ago. I think he was 194-195. He was alot taller than my 188 friend. If he would have been 198-200 cm he would have stood out in the crowd like some sort of "freak", which he didn't to be honest. He looked very tall. Taller than almost everyone at the station, yes, but he was not a giant. I think this have alot to do with everybody exaggerating about there heights. And when a "superhuman" like Dolph turns out to be only 194 cm, you are disappointed, because people have a wrong image about what's tall and not.

Lundgren isn't less than 6'5''. Probably even 6'6'' in his prime. Period!

A very tall man for sure.I think he is 6-4,5

there's no way in hell Dolph is 6-4 or 6-5? I say he is 6-7. I read somewhere years ago he was 6-7. He must be lying about his height.mAYBE JUST TO PLEASE THE PRODUCERS AND THE DIRECTORS. hIS THE size and height shouldn't be a hinderence to him in Hollywood. If it is the directors they are just stupid!

Everardo said on 30/Jul/07
If you pay attention to the behind the scenes section in Universal Soldier, Van Damme is walking beside Dolph Lundgren and Jean-Claude doesn't look so short in comparison. I think the difference looks greater in the film due to the camera angle to make the hero more "heroic".

This guy looked a legit 6'5, 6'6 in shoes in Rocky 4. He could be like 6'4 now though but def taller when he was younger.

I think that it doesn't really matter wheter this man is 193 or 195 or even 198 cm tall - he looks frightingly "perfect" - god thank Adolf Hitler did not win - he wanted only men like this to reproduce. Lundren is a very friendly and smart person. He answers questions of fans himself on his personal website.

supes78 said on 7/Feb/07
I don't know why there's a tendency to take the shortest height a celebrity gives for himself as being the most accurate when almost all of us will downgrade our heights occasionally. I've stated that I'm 5'8" in conversations before when I'm actually an inch taller just to emphasize that I'm not tall. The only difference is that I wasn't quoted in an interview that later touts that as my true height. I think the height a celebrity gives for himself the most often should be the most credible until significant evidence shows otherwise. In Dolph's case, no one has shown verifiable proof that he's not 6'5".
anonymous said on 7/Feb/07
so why isn't 6'5 peak height listed here like for arnold and hogan?
supes78 said on 6/Feb/07
Comparison of pics next to Stallone should be automatically disqualified on the grounds that the guy always wears lifts of variable sizes and has excellent military posture to scrape out even more height from his small frame. In every interview I've ever seen with Dolph, he's never wavered from the 6'5" claim so if nothing else, I'd say his peak prime height had to be atleast 6'4.5".
Viper said on 6/Feb/07
Well, he looked just 6-4 next to Sly in that one picture.

supes78 said on 26/Jan/07
I really have a hard time believing that Dolph is 6'4" when he looks easily 6'5" in so many places. He's got to be a tad over 6'4" but he's just downplaying his height these days since he has his own production company now and he hardly does the action movie roles any more.
thelasttiger said on 18/Oct/06
I agree with Jim. I think we should put either 6'5" at his peak, 6'4" today or
6'5 1/2 at his peak 6'4" today. That sounds like a good solution for now at least.
Jim said on 11/Oct/06
Dolph is a strong 6'4" and may have been about 6'5" at his prime-- filming in Rocky IV, he's a veritable giant next to Stallone.
venus said on 9/Oct/06
Dolph is such a tough guy, his legs are quite wobbly, his knees look bad too. I believe he may be 6'4.5 now, but several years ago, he was 6'5, the guy is huge!

There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that Lundgren or Stallone stood on different platforms to exaggerate their height difference. How can a guy who was deemed too tall for the part of Ivan Drago suddenly need to be even taller? It's nonsense. Here's a pic of the exact height difference between Stallone and Doplh and it is indeed several inches;

I sincerely doubt he's shrunk since the 1980s. He's only 40-something. It's a very Swedish thing to be modest and Dolph is, well, very Swedish. I'll bet he's around 195 - he always looks like a total giant in any film he's in.
316 said on 14/Apr/06
@Ronal Dostay- Dude maybe u need to ask that question to a 6'3 guy..lol. I guess with the opinions and pic evidences provided by so many wise ppl on this forum, i guess we can draw a conclusion that DOLPH is tall(6'4-6'5) and not lying abt his height like a lot of other celebrities.
Ronal Dostay said on 5/Apr/06
Is 6'3" tall?
Anonymous said on 3/Apr/06
This height is an under estimate. I have the Rocky anthology DVD collection and in the booklet in there it says Dolph was measured ' just a shade under 6' 6" . Most people here agree he's a huge guy and no less than 6' 5" at all. He consistently is seen in the 6' 5" - 6' 6" range and he is considerably taller than people of 6' 3".
So, surely, to Rob, you should upgrade this guy's height by half to 3/4 of an inch?
316 said on 3/Apr/06
What abt this pic where Lundgren and Stallone r standin together.
Click Here Dont see that much height difference there between them as one saw in Rocky4. Maybe Dolph was indeed made to stand on a box to look imposingly taller than Stallone. Neways, box or not, he does look in that 6'4-6'5 range.
Big Show said on 31/Mar/06
I doubt they made him look taller in Rocky 4. When he went to the casting they said he was too tall for the role, so why do they make him even taller than he already is.

316 said on 2/Mar/06
Maybe we have reached to a final conclusion about Dolph's height, after the innumerable evidences provided by people here. It will be now fair to say that Dolph Lundgren indeed is 6'5. So I guess the case is closed.
supes78 said on 26/Feb/06
My bad, the obsessed with wrestling site lists Kurt Angle as 5'10" tall, which really is his true height, and I think that Lister really is 6'6" like the site lists.
supes78 said on 26/Feb/06
That pic of Lister and Hogan was from the late 80's when Hogan was in his prime and would have stood around 6'5" tall. This would indeed make Lister around the 6'6" height where I put him at, which would still put Lundgren at 6'5". By the way, 6'6" was not the height Lister was billed at in the WWF. That's just the height the site lists him at based on a compilation of other sources. Notice that they list Kevin Nash at 6'11", when he's been billed at 7 foot or over for most of his career;
http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/profiles/k/kevin-nash.html
And they have Kurt Angle listed as 5'11" tall, when he has NEVER been listed by the WWE as anything under 6 foot, usually around 6'2" tall.

I used to have a magazine pic of Lundgren standing with Frank Langella in a behind-the-scenes moment from the "Masters of the Universe" movie. They were standing side by side and it looked like Lundgren had an inch or more on 6'4" Langella. Lundgren is just a huge guy and I don't doubt at all that he's 6'5" since he looks it no matter where I see him. Once again, check out this pic of him with 6'3" Michael Michael Rapaport;

What!?This guy only 193?This is impossible,because I'm 191 and I see Dolph before 4 years and he was taller by two inch than me.He is 6'5 or 6'6''.No way
Dolph only 193cm.He is tall,strong,big fella.More than 193 for sure,my guess is
197cm.He was taller than Frank Langella(1.93m-6'4''),little shorter than Moeller(1.98m-6'6'')much taller than Brion James(1.91m-6'3'')in Red Scorpio,and 5-6cm taller than Rapaport(191).197cm seems realistic.He said once
pragmatist said on 25/Nov/05
I've met Dolph at my gym a few times, in Stockholm. 196cm seems excessive. My brother-in-law is 195cm and Dolph is probably shorter by a few centimeters (I'm 185 cm myself and didn't feel dwarfed by him in any way). So I would place him at barely 6'4.
Editor Rob
I think the centimetre listing he gave himself of 194 might be closer...
Anshelm said on 21/Oct/05
Found the Swedish article (B&K Sports Magazine #4/1986) I mentioned earlier:
http://www.bk-sportsmag.se/artiklar/dolph_lundgren.htm
"Jag är cirka 195 centimeter lång och väger i filmen 245 pounds (110 kilo). Nu har jag minskat till 104 kilo. Men längden är densamma."
Which roughly translates to:
"I'm about 195 cm [6'4¾"] tall, and weighed 245 pounds (110 kg [actually 111]) in the film [Rocky IV]. Now I'm down to 104 kg [230 lbs]. But the height remains."

Explain this:Dolph said that he is 193cm(6'4'').OK.-Louis Gossett jr. is 193cm,and Dolph looks taller than him in Punisher and Cover Up about 5cm(2 inchs).So I think Dolph is strong 198cm(6'6'').But Ralph Moeller is 198cm and looks taller about 2cm.

6-4 or 6-5. Either way this guy is huge.
supes78 said on 26/Sep/05
Dolph is 6'5" tall and he's verified it in interviews he's given in print and on TV shows like Entertainment Tonight. The guy is a legitimately big action star who never uses lifts or strategic camera angles to alter the perception of his height on film. There are a few scenes in Universal Soldier where he can be seen standing side by side with 6'6" bodybuilder Ralph Moeller and they are pretty much the same height. Action stars worthy of closer height scrutiny are Stallone, Schwarzenegger and Van Damme.

Dolph Lundgren is swedish and he speaks swedish as well. I know many people who have met him (Sweden is a small country you see) and they all say that he is very tall and big, they also say that he is a very nice gentleman.
He stated in an "swedish" interview that when he travel to his hometown (Stockholm)almost everyone is as tall as he is.
In an other interview just a couple of weeks ago he was asked how much he weighed and he weighed 99 kilo whitch is equal to 217.8 pounds.
If he rally was 6'5" or 6'6" he would probably weigh more if you concider that he still is a very muscular guy.
Sing said on 9/Jun/05
Wasn't Dolph an ex-NFL player or professional athlete of some kind. If so there should be height stats about him.
