I'm shrinking. I'm only Six Two and a Half. When you get older you shrink....I've lost half an inch.

Rob, it is possible that Korman was actually 6’3.25” at peak but that he did not bother with the extra quarter of an inch. Not many 6’3” guys would.

Editor RobWell I don't think Harvey seemed under 6ft 3 in his prime. Whether he really was a fraction over? I'm not sure on that.

Looked a decent 6ft3 in his prime but I can believe he lost a bit in his 50’s and measured a bit less

He stated on the Johnny Carson Show Season 2 Episode 5- The Best of Carnac, that he was 6'2 1/2 and that he shrunk 1/2 an inch. He was slightly shorter then Ed McMahon.

⭐ I've treated myself to a viewing of the campfire scene from 'Blazing Saddles' and sent it to Nik, who loves 'things like that'!
So do I actually....

Rob, could you please add Herbie Goes Bananas, Curse of the Pink Panther and Trail of the Pink Panther to Korman’s credits?
I’d say 6’3.5” peak for Korman, he is listed 6 feet 4 in places, had a good inch at least on Slim Pickens in Blazing Saddles and edged out 6’3” listed Stephen W. Burns in Herbie Goes Bananas.

I thought shorter as well initially but in Blazing Saddles he definitely looked around 6ft3

He didn’t look that tall but then you realize in some roles like Blazing Saddles that he had a comfortable amount of height over Slim Pickens and realize Harvey was 6’3” at the least.

Aah! How can anyone forget the campfire scene in 'Blazing Saddles'? It was the favourite scene of the mother of my late boyfriend!
Good old Harvey gets 6ft3.
RIP Harvey XX 🕯️💐
