I have a copy of Deliverance next door and I’ve seen Jon in Anaconda and Runaway Train. Most definitely a tall specimen!
6ft2.5 peak and 6ft1.5 now.

he was just a solid 6'2 peak no more no less. he looked taller in midnight cowboy for obvious reasons but if you have seen him in his other films he never really looked 6'3.

Always looked noticeably tall onscreen. I wouldn't entirely dismiss 6ft3 as a peak, certainly could have been a 190cm guy. Today still comfortably clearing 6ft1

Hey Rob, although 6ft 2 ½ (189.2 cm) is in the higher 90's percentile for men in society, are more than 10% of celebrity males on this site listed as this height or taller in terms of their peak height?

Editor RobThere are more sports, wrestling stars who can take the overall percentage of 6ft 2+ men above what it might normally be.

190 cm in his prime, probably...
He didn't lose so much with age, he's in a good health.

Even 182 cm (my current height) is in the 85th percentile for men, so 189 cm would easily be in the top 5.

In my opinion Voight is the guy who shrunk from 190 cm to 186 cm today. Here are some of his photos alongside Whoopi Goldberg from 1986: Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
Of course I believe Whoopi was 5ft 4.25 and Voight was closer to 6ft 3 than 2. Rob, maybe it's time to update? In my opinion, 6ft 2.75 as peak height and 6ft 1.25 today looks quite realistic.

No doubt about his peak height: 6’2.5/189cm on the nose.
About his current height, well I’ve seen many pictures of him and sometimes he looks barely 6’1 but others with a good posture a little over. Considering his age and his physical appearance I think he recorded a loss of a strong inche so for his current height I will say 6’1.25/186cm.

if trump and Voight are wearing similar footwear then Voight is 6'0.5 max now since trump's current height is 5'1 max now.

@Slim: he has said that he downgraded himself and was in therapy for it. You cannot even hold a conversation with him or a post just because he is a fanboy. He says that Conan saying he’s 6’4” but he isn’t that he is downplaying his height or that Selleck or Neeson are. Not to mention he has admitted to posting under the influence before and went off on someone while doing it. It’s just difficult to take certain people seriously. Now people call me a downgrader sometimes and attack Christian 6’5 3/8 regularly but the reason i see eye to eye with him along with Junior and SJH and Bobby3342 and some others is because they are balanced. I don’t take it at face value or upgrade others to make someone taller. That is something else that if i never see again it’d be too soon. It is frustrating when someone does it to me esp if they’re lying about their own height. But on the flip side we may see a guy who is listed below their actual (like i did with Larroquette) and say he’s taller

@Canson(slim6’1” here btw), wow that’s really confusing, I now know why you got so mad at Will and never want to hear the word “downplay” ever again.
That really messes with my head when I think about, he wishes he was shorter but wishes others were taller? I don’t know the answer tbh, that’s so ****ing strange.

He never looked THAT tall on screen, never looked tall enough to look awkward. Very blonde in his younger years and a strange demeanour, you can see where Jolie got that mysterious side. Viggo Mortsensen also has that sort of demeanour and look, can't quite put my finger on it but you'd guess there is a very dark side to them which the public don't know about! Jolie's kids with Brad mostly look like Jon, strong genes.

In Midnight Cowboy he gave an appearance of a 6'1 guy but that was the boots and hat that gave him the extra inches.I will say Jon Voight was 5'10 when he did Midnight Cowboy. The Cowboy boots made him appear 6'1 an the hat gave an extra 2 inches.There's a scene where he was walking by a door and he was a full head shorter than the door and that's with the Cowboy Boots and hat.5'10 for Jon Voight

He's not that tall. Midnight Cowboy 1969 he was standing with cowboy boots opposite 5 ft 11 John McGiver ho plays O'Daniel that crazy old man Dustin Hoffman sends Jon Voight too. There was 2.5 to 3 inch difference btween Jon Voight(Joe Buck) and John McGiver ( O'Daniel) and Jon had Cowboy boots on while John McGiver was without foot wear. I am going to say John Voight was 6 ft tall in the 1960s when he did Midnight Cowboy.

You are on point only looked 6 3 with tiny guys like the real hoff.
Peak a big 6 2 usually looked fit funny he was so insecure about his build.
Now he looks a big 6 ft back in the 90s could still pass for 6 1.
He can be tough to judge at times so I'm only 80 percent.
Fairly good actor cool voice seems a cool guy offscreen.

Yeah, he looks just a bit taller than LaRose in the few scenes they have together, not even 2 inches...
I remember he had some scenes with Tony Almeida in 24 and i really struggled to see him even 6'1 tall (and that was around 7 years ago, so you'd expect some more loss by now)!
Do you think 6'0.5 is possible today or you're sure he'd manage to stand tall and measure over 6'1, even today?
Again, he really doesn't look much different than Liev on the show at times, maybe a couple of cms shorter is possible but more? Mmm...

Editor Rob he might look 184 at times, but can he still stretch up for a 6ft 1 range measurement? It can be harder to tell sometimes with elderly gentleman.

Rob, what's the lowest you can see him today? I can't say anything about his peak, but i've seen him in 24 and more recently in Ray Donovan...
As i said some months ago, i honestly would have said 6'1 at most in 24! Look at him with Mark Walhberg: Click Here
Does he really look over 6'0.5 range there? I can see how his posture isn't the best posture at times but even in Ray D he doesn't look a big 6'2 guy, to me!
At the same time, he really doesn't look much shorter than guys like Liev on the show... He's a tricky guy! He actually had a couple of scenes with an actor you met, J. LaRose, and he looked just slightly taller than him! (Btw, you have him at 5'11 but he looks more 5'10 with you)... In fact, i thought that guy was at least a big 6'!

Editor Rob I think he might not measure 6ft 2 today, having a brief look I could see him look anywhere from over 6ft to 6ft 1.5. If he didn't look more than 2 inches taller than La Rose then I'd say he could be 6ft 1 max today then.

He wore cowboy boots a lot especially in Midnight Cowboy. Thing he he looked tall and in boots he would of been 6' 5 inches. His height appeared 5 inches taller than many females. Many females at 5'3" so I will say in Midnight Cowboy he looked 5' 10"if he was flat footed. I will say he looked at most 5' 10 inches. Now probably 5' 9". Clint Eastwood has his height very high too of course never forget his traditional Footwear (Boots) Boots can give the appearance of a very tall person. Another thing He looked the same height as Burt Reynolds in Deliverance and Burt was 5 foot 10 inches.

Rob,is it really possible he didn't lose a whole inch till the age of 77?
That's really impressive if true! Usually tall guys lose more height than shorter ones.
Freeman is the only tall one I can think of that didn't lose an inch with 70+years.

@Editor Rob: Think 6'2.75 is fair for his peak since he claimed 6'3? He's 76 years old now and has looked 6'2 flat for the better part of a decade, looks like he could even be dipping a touch below 6'2 on Ray Donovan, but his posture isn't great.

He looked at least 2 inches shorter than Liev Schreiber on Ray Donovan. If he straightened up, I could see 187 at the most.

I met him at the Whitaker Wellness Center in Newport Beach, CA about two years ago. He was easily 6'3" - 6"4" tall. He appears inordinately tall and 6'2" tall men don't give that impression. They appear tall, but not inordinately so.

Next to Liev Schreiber, he looks barely shorter recently. He's got good posture and seems to have lost barely any height.

"Peak height was 6ft 2.75in (190cm)"
He did look near 6ft4 in Midnight Cowboy with boots maybe. The 6ft5 listings are complete bull.

For voight to be 6'1, his measurement would have to be taken from the very top of his hair !!! ie 5 inches.........
I see a 5'8 man with a 6'0 or so guy there.
Excellent picture mamun. This will destory the 6'0 nicholas cage myth and inturn, the 6'0 travolta myth both of these men are a 5'10 currently. Travolta could of lost some height especially at his current weight
Voight 6'0 - 6'0.5
cage 5'10-5-10.5
travola a flat 5'10
Travolta a flat 5'10"? That makes Princess Diana 5'7" absolute max and Prince Charles 5'6".

Diana was never taller then charles, never, N-E-V-E-R and travolta never had diana by 3 inches. If anything, i believed charles edged diana, maybe upto 0.75 inches. The lowest, charles was the same height. PLEASE PEOPLE, stop this diana taller then charles nonsense. Its universal comments and beliefs like this that make very cynical. People like you shaun, probably dnt challenge the status quo and i would not trust you to give fair heights. My heights are way off from listed heights, but thats how i view it and i will continue to provide evidence.
Notice, how travolta hardly has an inch on charles, 0.5 inches most likely, how can this man be 6'0, let alone close to 6'1?
The man is and i still maintain, somewhere between 5'10.5 - 5'11.
Voight 6'1
Travolta 5'10.5 - 5'11
Charles ( Same height as diana, or a bit taller )
Diana ( Was same height as charles, if anything, shorter. What difference is there between her listed height, her perceived height and actually tape measured height is, i cannot pinpoint)

wrong johno. in picture John Voight came not more than 5'11.5 , but in full frame he is a solid 6'1 guy with his 6'1 son James Haven. at peak i doubt he is 6'2.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
On closer inspection, i believe voight would be 6'1 if he were to stand straight, i will give him that,
I have seen upgraded travolta and cage's height.
Voight 6'1
travolta 5'10.5 - 5'11
cage 5'10.5 - 5'11
Note, these estimates are still lower then what is attributed to them

Don't it mention mamun. Like i said, a good money shot with a semi-A-lister, which are very difficult to get hold of especially when you got them off guard as opposed to fan signings where they could wear suspect footwear or try to appear taller - LOL i know i would !!! Anyway.... Keach looks deadon 5'11 with rob. I think the pictures your talking about belong to the same set as this one... Click Here is a classic example, where by from a distance one appears to be towering another man but on closer inspection and knowing the shape of keach's heads and taking into account of voights exceptionally groomed hair, a gd set of hair mind you but non the less taking that into account. The difference seems towards 2 inches, about the size of my index finger. However, voight obviously has keach in a headlock and thus, his right side is tilted upwards increasing his height whilest simultaneously reducing leach's height, pushing his neck and head slightly forwards The difference inturn, would not be 2 inches. I'm going to eliminate 6'0 as a possibility and upgrade it to a 6'0.5, quite possibly 6'0.75 although, i hate dealing with quarter fractions Leach 5'11 voight 6'0.5 - 6'0.75 i think thats fair

4 inches taller than Mamun with slouch, probably 5 inches standing super straight. I'd say strong 6'1.

In one scene on 24 he looked an inch taller than the actor who plays larry moss and he looks over 6ft. In midnight cowboy i would guess 6ft 3 something but he was in a good inch and a bit cowboy boots.

He could be 6ft 1.5 barefoot at the lowest and that would then make him 6ft 2 plus in shoes. At times he has looked real tall on screen. On 24 he looks this height. He looked almost a head taller than carlos bernard who plays tony.

I believe 6-3 peak. Just saw a picture of him and Jeff Goldblum and the 6-4 Goldblum had about two inches on him. A recent pic which means that he is around 6-2 nowadays and very likely an inch taller peak.

Dolph Lundgren had an easy two inches on Voight in a recent pic. Some people claim Lundgren has lost height and is now barely 6'4". Voight was likely 6'3", looks 6'2" max nowadays.

He is taller than 189 cm, at least 190 or 191, about 6'3''. In National Treasure Jon Voight had Nick Cage by 2 inches. This not a god picture to judge height, by you will know what movie i am talking about. Click Here

I think in the range of 6'3 to 6'4 and now still close to if not 6'3 here. Funny, I never saw him as a tall guy early on, but noticed later, especially in Mission Impossible.

It's odd how in "Transformers," he looked no more than 6'1 to me. But I buy 6'3 straightened out. I saw a picture awhile back where he beat the legit 6' James Gandolfini by 3-4 inches.

I've seen a photo of him with his children and his son looks about 2-3 inches taller than him. He must be around 6'5. Jon was also listed at this height before, but I doubt he ever was this tall. In recent films, like Rosewood, Varsity Blues, Enemy of the State etc. he looks a solid 6ft3incher.

I've always been in doubt about this guy. In some films (like Midnight Cowboy) he looked very tall, like 6'4 and in some films (Deliverance, Runaway Train) he doesn't look that tall, more like 6-6'1. So he's a mystery. I've seen him listed as 6'1, but most sources list him at 6'3 or 6'4. I guess your estimate might be right.

Varsity Blues was on the other night and he looked roughly the same height as Paul Walker(6ft2) maybe a bit taller, and at least 2-3 inches taller than James Vanderbeek. In one scene though he looked to have almost 4 inches or more on Vanderbeek, who's listed at 6ft but to me looks more like 5ft10/5ft11. 6ft2.5 or a flat 6ft2 sounds right for Voight! Maybe 6ft3 in his youth, but I don't think 6ft4 by any means!

In National Treasure, in the scene towards the end when they enter the church, he looks slightly taller than Nicolas Cage, i would say 1 and 1/2 inch, maybe 2 but not more; i do believe he was taller than 6 3 at his peak; if Cage is 6 feet he should now be around 6 2'' top.

a photo of John Voigt standing next to Liam Stone (6ft) he looked at least four to five inches taller than Stone, who is not a small guy.

IF both actors are wearing the same shoes then Jon Voight is at least 6ft 5in.

He looked shorter than Liev Schreiber in The Manchurian Candidate. Schreiber seemed to have almost 2 inches on Voight. The difference between Schreiber and Denzel Washington in that movie was similar. I believe Schreiber is about 6'3"...I think it's possible that Voight doesn't have the best posture and is starting to shrink.

Jon Voight is for me 6'4" (much above 6'2") but he's stooping because he believes such a height is unsuitable for an actor. I saw him on TV standing next to a reporter (about 6' or 6'1") and he was much taller. He was also asked how he managed to play Pope, who was much shorter, and he showed how he was stoopong and shrinking :)
