According to a website called the world is not enough all actors who played James Bond are as followed in height without shoes, Sean Connery (186cm), Roger Moore (185cm), George Lazenby (188cm), Timothy Dalton (188cm), Pierce Brosnan (185cm) and Daniel Craig (180cm). I agree with most of these and i find it interesting that the taller of the bonds played the role the least number of times i.e Dalton and Lazenby at 6"2! Ian Flemmings apparent ideal height for JamesBond was apparently 6"0 but on his official site it is 6"1 for sumreason and the most sucessful Bond's where that tall almost exactly. Its starnge how the new Bond is under 6ft but in my opinion he did a great job like the others. I disagree with Rumours that Connery's peak was even close to 6"3! I watched his first bond film the other day and he was the trimmist of all his bond films and barefoot on that beach he looked no more than 6"2 if that, especially barefoot which we all go by in height now don't we. Connery was measured at about 6'1 1/2" (186cm) for the Dr No film and he would of already reached his peak by then.

6'3 should be his peak height. Today a solid 6'2 or a little over. Now into his 70s he still looks quite tall.

There is a Bond film, Never Say Never Again, where a woman size him up and gives approximations of his height and weight, anyone remember his height, I think she gives his weight as 190.

Desmond Llewelyn looked noticeably taller than Connery in the Bond films they were in together. Llewelyn was 6'2" it is said, although he'd lost a lot of stature by the 1990s.

I trained at Edward Bolton's gym in London where Sean Connery trained, in 1964, and I remember the white painted lockers back where the shower was. There was a sleeveless undervest in the locker with Sean's name on it. I tried it on when Sean wasn't there and I was surprised that it said medium size (not large or extra large) on the label. Mr. Bolton's assistant gave me two dumbell weights, about 30 lbs each with black painted plates, telling me that they belonged to Sean Connery and that he didn't need them because he lived in Spain. My mother kept them on her balcony for years and finally threw them out which annoyed me no end. Sean trained at Edward Bolton's when he was in London. I trained with Schwarzenegger four years later in Munich and they were both about 6'2." Roger Field

In "Diamonds Are Forever", Connery stands next to 6'3 Jimmy White in some scenes. White does not even have a full inch on him. Connery was probably 6'2.5-6'2.25 at his peak.

Costner is 6`1 and Connery was probably 6`2 at his peak. They were very simlar in height in The untouchables. Connery had an inch on Costner at the most in that movie.
Connery skinny body type? I guess I will have to look up for the word skinny in the dictionary

I would say that Sean Connery is an honest 6'.At his peak, he might be closer to 6-1, in case he has shrunk.
Sometimes he was listed at 6-3, but I don't think that he ever was that tall. It also should not be neglected that his skinny body type made him appear taller, when playing 007.

He really could be around 6'1" at his peak, and maybe he still is,if he has not shrunk.
I saw his wax figur at Madame Thussauds, and it was about 3" taller than me.
So at least 6'1".I don't know,if this was really his height, because I noticed that very often those wax figures do not represent actual heights. I discovered that for example at Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Yes, Gotxo, I was born in San Sebastian though I have almost all my life in Madrid. I didn´t think I mention it on this site. The same with you, no? Vasco but you live in Madrid?
Yes I was talking about Cinemaldi and that other visit Connery did to Cataluña, when he attended the football game of FC Barcelona (the famous pic with Ronaldinho) and I also saw a pic of Connery next to Pasqual Maragall and Connery towered over him. Ronaldinho is 5`11 and Maragall was easy 5`11 at his peak but now he looks around 5`10. Connery looked 6`1 next to both of them

Thnx for your comments! :)
I suppose you are talking about "Cinemaldi" of San Sebastian (wheren't you from there?) Sorry i missed this year's one :( .
I'm the same opinion as you anyway, Connery still looks a legit tall man, over 6' i mean. I will try to find graphical support for that.
I coincide with you too that Harrison Ford might be like 6" 0.5' and Costner slightly over 6'1" or at least he looked taller than Ford compared to Connery (Last Crusade) in the Untouchables (Both films are nearly the same age 1987-1989, so i won't accept miracolous shrinkings. :P

I disagree with Mario: Connery was clearly taller than Harrison Ford but barely taller than Costner. From I have seen, Costner must be one inch taller than Ford. I see Connery at 1`87-88, Costner 1`8`5-86 and Ford 1`83-84.
Please, this is Connery page. Arnie`s got his own. Save those Arnold`s pics for his page.

Connery is/ was easy 3-4 cm taller than Ford and Costner. Don’t forget that they tried for some scenes in Indiana Jones to make Ford look taller than what he really was, and Connery is definitely in the same range as Caine who isn’t any shorter than 188cm.
.
And respect my opinion about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s height, which is practically the same as Editor Rob’s opinion and of lot of others.

yawn... Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, Bernard Shaw, Michael Caine, and quite a few others - next to all the previous Connery was a solid 1.86m on film, but quite clearly no more than that. He's a well built Jock though, bless him. Will miss him on the silver screen...
And lol Mario - don't even get me started on the Black-enegger - Arnie's delusional two inch growth spurt came about when he got lucky in Tinseltown... also, I've never seen a Bodybuilder state his true height. Ever :)

Bodybuilders don't even weigh-in at contests let alone have their height measured. One IFBB contest I remember where they actually did weigh-in, under the list of competitors' weights it said to subtract 5lbs for clothes and shoes!

“Still not convinced - he never looks/looked more than a solid 1.86m near any of his co-stars.”
It’s obvious that there isn’t one cm of difference between him and 185cm Gert Fróbe or Walken or that he’s at least 5-6 cm taller than 183cm Jack Lord. And I can give more examples.
“Don't be fooled by bodybuilding's 'official heights'”
I’m not, as I have said, in my eyes he can look 188 to 190cm in his early movie’s and the 6 ft 2.4 listening sounds right based on what he looks next to others.
“Arnie still thinks he's six two thanks to that lot...”
That’s just an rounded up height, in reality he was 186-187cm when he was younger, and Connery’s height isn’t rounded up or down.

J.J.F, an inch shorter than Llewelyn? WTF? In From Russia Llewelyn is closer to the camera + Connery is sloughing (but look at there eyes), In Goldfinger Connery is sloughing the whole time when Q is explaining him something, and in Thunderbal and You Only Live Twice Connery is again sloughing, but in the face to face moments (one of two seconds) they look identical in height. Still we don’t even now what Llewelyn height was, only that he was a tall man.
“Mario, people get measured with shoes all the time.”
You can only enter in the tall man division if your are 183cm+. If you are 182cm, you go to the short man division, so just see how important one cm is in those contest, and in the army they want to do everything fast.
My doctor has always asked to remove my shoes when was going to measure me.
6 ft 2 Lazenby also did reveal to Editor Rob, that Connery was taller than him.

Well, actually he didn't. Throughout the 60's he looked consistently 1/2" to 1" shorter than at the time 6'2" Desmond Llewelyn - in From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball and You only live Twice.
I'd peg him at 1.86, dont think he's lost much.

I can't find now the picture[s]of his body building days, but there are pictures in which he's easy 2 inches taller than some guy's who are for sure 6 feet +.
Why do I know this? Because Connery was in the tall man devision, and you must be at least 6 feet to be there.
Also who the hell is going to measure somebody in shoes? 6 ft 2.4. sounds right since he always looks 188-190cm in his older movie's.

I dont think that supposed 6-2.4 measurment is very accurate. Also possible it was an in shoes height. A lot of evidence supports that Connery was margially under 6-2 then over it.

Sean Connery by my assessment is about 61' 1/4 inches now-a-days. in his prime id go with the information up top that says he was 6foot 2.4 inches. Those bodybuilding measurements are probably accurate as they were used in contests. He has often be described as 6 3' and with the right foot wear he would have been. Makes sense to me.

Good pic, Jordan.
Sam, Frobe occasionally looked even shorter because he was hefty and also had bad posture. When he straightened up and stood with Connery he only looked an inch or so shorter.

My high school sports teacher Neil McColville told me to lift weights at Edward Bolton's gym in London which I did in 1964. Sean Connery trained there. He certainly was 6'2" exactly, I would say. I first met Sean in 1963 in London after the opening of "From Russia With Love" when I was pushed into his car by the crowd! He is very polite. I trained with Schwarzenegger in 1968 in Munich, so I trained both with Bond and Terminator! Both are pretty much the same height. Roger Field
My high school sports teacher Neil McColville told me to lift weights at Edward Bolton's gym in London which I did in 1964. Sean Connery trained there. He certainly was 6'2" exactly, I would say.

David: Connery was one of the few in body building who was genuinely tall. In my opinion he had the ideal body builder's look. No matter how muscular a man gets, if he's short to me he'll always be a small guy :)

Having stood right next to Connery at an airport magazine stand (1987), I was surprised that he was a little taller than myself (6ft 1.5in). I always assumed he was about 5ft 11in. He is definitely 6ft 2in. Being that he is 75 years old now, he may have shrunk an inch in recent years.

Connery looked easily an inch taller than Ford in The Last Crusade, and that was 17 years ago. If Ford was around 6ft1 in his boots, maybe a little more, than Connery was about 6ft2 plus in his dress shoes in the film. My Guess was Connery was probably 6ft1.75 in his hey day, and now about 6ft0.75, maybe 6ft1. He's always been a taller guy in all his movies.

Yep, the reason he might look below 6-1 at times is when his posture isnt the best. Makes sense.

i just came back from attending sean connery's AFI lifetime achievement award ceremony.Barefoot i'm 6 foot 1/4.With dress shoes around 6 foot 1. i deliberatley stood in back of sean to compare are height and i would say he maybe had a 1/4 of an inch on me if he is lucky. i would say he is 6'1 or 6'1 1/2 no more. He walks with a noticeable hunch though.

I agree, big shrunkment is possible in some cases but generaly it's an small issue. As i said i can see ford still on 6' mark, prolly he wasn't a full 6'1" (maybe an exact 185cm?). People use it in excess to match weird theories, i'm tired of that too.

Wow thanks Rob, this demonstrates that pics with Ronaldinho where OK and the guy is not any less than 5'11" and Connery bigger. The last one is the less slanted in my opinion, if Harrison is still 6', Connery is no less than 6'1".

He was in 2003 a 1-1.5 taller than 6 ft 0.5 Laurence Fishburne, and the pictures with Ronaldinho really suggest that he is still over the 6 ft 1 mark.
He also looks slighty taller than Michael Caine (those days), who is an inch taller than Christian Bale, who is my opinion a legitimate 6 footer.

Gazza is listed at between 5'8" and 5'10" and Connery TOWERS over him. Gazzas first comment is 'ya taller than I thought like'!! To which Connery cooly replies 'always'!!

I think these are out. It seems everyone is intent on making people shorter on this site?? Im convinced Connery was a sure 6'3" in his peak, he was a beast of a guy. Even now, judging by the Ronaldinho pics below, I still don't see how he is under 6'2". Ronaldinho is listed just under 6ft and Connery looks a good 4.5 inches taller than him. Even in the pic with that Fishburne guy, look at the footwear. It is clear the other fella has bigger heels on ANDhe has a bit of an afro!! If you imagine their skull lines Connery is easily 2 inches bigger than him and that would put him at 6'2" irrelevant of his footwear. the guy is old, give him his height back!!! 6'3" at peak(The REAL Bond!!) and 6'2" now, no debate!

Gotxo, Ronaldinho is indeed 1.80m but he has a shoe disadvantage standing on the grass with football boots, studs sink right in, so he is almost at barefoot height in those pics. Fishburne has shoes on, obviously.
Connery was certainly never 1.89m barefoot - thats a 'shoes on measurement' taken for his bodybuilding stats probably. Would equate to about 1.87m barefoot when he was young. Looks 2cm taller than Nic Cage in all their shots together.
2-3cm is a normal kind of height loss after age of 60...

Ok, i know that Fishburne's height is still up to debate, but if you take a look to the pictures with Ronaldinho, the brazilian one is compartively smaller than Fishburne (Using Connery as a bridge), and Ronaldinho has never been listed any less than 180cm, and he looks really it.
To me is clear that Connery was over 6'1" when young, don't care much about if he was 187cm or 189cm, both being possible is safe to say that he was around 6'2". 2 cm height can be lost during a day time span, it's an accuracy hard to pin down by observation only, unless you're very close the guy in question's height.

Yeah, the promo pics (or name it official ones) shows a Harrison Ford taller or at least as tall as Connery (as Ford plays the man role), but the shots at the set or with the crew of the film show otherwise. Thnx for the puntualization, i'll try to find some of these and post the link.
Frank:
Mebbe Ford wasn't a legit 6'1" in his youth, but since 6'1" is 185,4 cm it depicts a reality of a smidgen over 185cm. So i can truly belive both 184cm or 185cm for Ford when young.Definetly 6' & change at least.
The picture of Connery with Bianchi shows a little judgement on images, do notice that the camera is on elevated position, if it was attached to a pole, then the camera would have a 45 degree angle with the floor.

That happened before she became Mss Spain on 1990.

Like I said, when I met Connery he was slouched like he had bad posture. But with Moore he was standing up straight. So Connery could be 6'1" but with Moore I feel he really has lost some serious inches over the years.

Yes, i agree with you, Connery nowadays is 6'1" or maybe even over a bit over.
J.J.F: Yes i know that the football shoes have thin soles, but they have also studs, though they get inserted a bit on the ground, the height advantage for Connery is not so big (Time to judge on the full body shot Connery Rondaldinho Rob). And Ronaldinho is officialy listed @ a belivable 181cm, so being conservative a 186cm nowadays is still posible for Sean.
Thus implies he was a bit taller when young (Or we shall belive he never shrunk, wich is possible but not very plausible)
Frank:
I can belive that Moore is 180-181cm today, as he always was like 4cm shorter than Connery, but i can't belive that Sean was only 6'1" when young.
I think that he was downgraded by studios as currently does some modeling agencies. My reasons? Check some photos of Connery next to 184cm Harrison ford in "The last Crusade", it is not so evident in the film, but on fotos you can see the scottish having more than one inch advantage on the american.

Gotxo you have to account for the extremely thin soles in a football boot as the pic was taken on the pitch so the studs sink in - conney was in shoes and would have a 1 - 1.5" advantage in that pic!
So 6'1" would be right

Firstly this site is technically 'British', secondly the majority of the world (for which is the majority on this 'World Wide Web') uses the metric system, which even though I myself am native to the Old English system have to respect. How about learning a bit about the Metric system before disregarding it, kids in 2nd grade do, so I am sure we all can as well.

I ran into Roger Moore buying an expensive Brioni sport coat at Bernini's in Beverly Hills about five years ago. At that time he was hardly any taller than me. And when I saw Sean at Fox he wasn't that much taller. I was with my assistant who's about 5'10" and he stopped with me to speak with Sean. I noticed that Connery wasn't more than an inch and a half taller than my assistant. Now, granted he was stooped abit and not standing up straight as an arrow. But in the case of Moore he was.

I saw Sean at Fox Studio right before I retired which was about three years ago and he was hardly any taller than me. He was kind of slouched over a bit as he walked. I think he was about 6'1" in his prime, but has shrunk down to slightly over 5'11".

Connery is very tall but I don´t think he was 6`3 at his peak. I`m thinking about other 6`3 as James Stewart, Gregory Peck or Donald Sutherland and I don`t think Connery was as tall as these guys. I think Connery is 1`88 or 89 and the other guys are 1`91 or 92.

Celebheights is British but www means world wide web. The whole world can participate and cm are as used as inches. We can use both, can´t we?
By the way, I think Connery is very big. He was 6`2 and he is still very tall. He is taller than most of his partners in the movies

I saw Sean on Jay Leno. Sean said he was 6'1 and a half depending on the condition of his shoe leather. Considering he's 76 now I'd say he probably was 6'2" to 6'3" in his prime.

Was sad enough to stay up past 2am to watch Connery in The Anderson Tapes this morning. What I noticed about Sean was that he looked particuarly tall in this film, and throughout the movie he was described as tall, or as a big guy. I was waiting for someone to mention his height and then someone did. They described him as 6'3" tall. Now, if he were only 6'1.5 peak they would have rounded up by a half inch to describe him as 6'2 maybe, rounding up 1.5" is pushing it a little. Maybe when Sean was measured at 189cm, he was caught short, and really was the full 6'3", who knows, what I also noticed was that Walken looked 6'1", as there was a couple of inches between him and Sir Sean.

I also own the film, and yes it's hard to distinguish who is tallest of the two. I came to the conclusion the Connery was marginally taller than Caine, if Caine is 6'2", which he looks, then Connery was the 6'2.5" that has been mentioned on many occasions.

I don't think that asking a simple pic is an obsessive trend. Scharzenegger depicts a modern culture icon, but people tend to identify his fictional powers with the real man. We deal here with more things that height: The semiotic of the media, the power of advertisement, urban legends and modern day miths as cinema. 188cm is a good height, but you don't get superpowers once you reach it, the public loves to forget that the aforementioned machinery is what really gave power to Arnie (as it did with Reagan). Let's break a myth, lets we remember that no matter wich it is his height he could have went out with the success of the box office & public.

When Connery has gived his height in feet, he has sayd 6 ft 2. When he has gived his height in metrics he has sayd 189 cm. To me he always has looked 188 to 190 cm. It's difficult to give an exact or see the difference of 1/2 cm, if he has looked shorter in an occasion it's because his posture. He seems to be an honest guy, or gives at least that impresion. I don't have any reason to think that he his lying.
Things that I hate are post like those ones.

Connery wore bigger shoes then normal to look 6-3, the height they promoted him at. Thats why he might look a littler taller then others around the same or just below his height. Richard Harris is 6-1, so Connery with a half inch more on his shoes will look an inch taller at least then Harris.

Sorry Mario, i can understand many of your points, but some of your post amazes me. We all tend to round up or down, that's a natural trend and it's totally ok. But you don't have to strive with such a rancid system as imperials being dutch and a times you don't seem to master your own one (metrics). You've more a fixed idea (Connery 188-189cm, wich is very feasible though) rather to trying demonstrate it in a logic way your tone is more the breed of advertising than suspicion or even wildguessing. Where's our Mario?

Where are you from? You said you lived in Spain (Marbella?) and wrote that Harrison Ford was 185 metres, unforgivable since we use here metrics not imperials. Now you say that a 181cm player is tall compared to Spaniards. Have you gone farther that the next corner's bar and it's sangria? You seem to have learned nothing from it's culture.
BTW the Barça has always showed a trend to have more foreigner stars than other clubs, thence the average of the team is taller than most others.
Anyway in a club like the Athletic of Bilbao, wich count wich no foreigner amongst their players a 181cm guy is no tall (neither small) by any standars.

If you have any photo with Connery, why don't you scan & send it to rob?
It's terrible hard that Connery only be 6" it should mean that Ronaldino is only 175cm or less...That should be very hard to conceal in a Club like Barça as they are tall players.

Mario, once again I dont need to refer to second hand info, I have a shot with Connery and my best friend to use as reference. But as per all photos, it may be inaccurate , and a bad photo, as he barely looks over 6'0"-6'0.5" in it. So ill give you the benefit of the doubt, unlike you did to me with Brosnan. In his youth he does look 6'2" ill give you that, but I dont think so anymore.

Guy Hamilton The director of Goldfinger sayd to Connery, when Llewelyn is talking go with your face down just like you aren't interested in what Q is telling you.
Lewis Gilbert the director of You Only Live Twice sayd to Connery, go with your head down as much as you can. Gilbert wanted this because Connery was head bigger than the Japanese guy's in Yolt. This are Gilbert words. Maybe this is the reason why so much poeple says that Connery was sleepwalking in Yolt.
Buy The 007 special editions DVD' Brett. watch the Audio commentarý's and maybe you will find something out.
6 ft 2.4 sounds pretty accurate to me.

I know that they used to have divisions 6ft+ tall man. Just as a side-note
In the days of Arnie etc suddenly when they changed the height divisions a lot of guys who previously were 6ft suddenly became 5ft 11.5 to go into smaller competitive division

Those pics with Llewelyn and Connery, are actually in Llews favour, he does look like he has the edge over Sean.I suppose in the 60s Llew probably was a good 6'2", he looked alot more upright back then. One can see how he changed between 1967 and 77, he definitely looks closer to 6-6'1 in the 70s-90s , and a sure 6'2" in the 60s and prior to that. But I think this proves Connery was not really more then 6'2" ever, as he does look shorter then Llewelyn, more then likely his peak height was 6'1.5 or 6'1.75"

Sean has a good 2.5", 3" on Ronadlinho, goes to show that he is much nearer the 6'1.5 than 6'0, which is what some people have been suggesting.

Sean Connery is 6'2. Lazenby, Moore, and Brosnan seem to be the same. Timothy Dalton is more questionable. He is allegedly 6'2, but he doesn't look that way when you see his full profile. Dalton never looks much taller than 5'9 or 5'10. They must have stood him up on a box during close ups.

I remember in a documentary a few years ago (late 90s) Paul Gascoigne, a legit 5'10, met Seen Connery in a football stadium probably Ranger's ground and Gazza commented 'you're taller than I thought' to which Connery replied, 'yes...always' lol. He did seem to have a few inches on Gazza.

In the Documantary Inside Diamonds are Forever they talk some about Sean Connerys height. The actor who plays Peter Franks says that he just like Connery 6 ft 2 tall. Lana Wood who is 5 ft 2 tall says that she standed on a box in her scenes with Connery and that he is gigantic.
You can find this documantary in the Diamonds are Forever dvd.

In Connery's discharge i must say that people who live of their image trend to do those kind of tricks unconsciously (as showing one side of the face instead the other for pics), presently if they have been taller in the past.

Yeh probably 1-1.5inches max,from that pic, probably closer to one inch because the one photo, Connery is standing on one leg ( no doubt purposely as your taller on one leg then 2).

I have to retract my comment about him being 6'1.5" I think now hes not much over 6'0" as a friend of mine whoes around 5'7"-5'8" had a recent photo with him and his girlfriend next to connery, and Connerys eye level are not above my friends head, while Mine are by an couple inches, and im 6'1" so I think connery is 6ft nowadays. And I have met Brosnan, Eric Banan and Hugh Jackman amongst others, and they were all the same size to the nearest half inch, and were taller then myself by atleast an inch or so.

Roger Moore never looked shorter than Bernard Lee (M). He looked similiar in height as Desmond Llewelyn, but of course Llewelyn wasn't as tall as what he was in The Connery era.

Then why does Moore look two inches shorter than Michael Caine and Sean Connery in a 1983 photograph? It's in Caine's autobiography "What's It All About?" if you want to check it out.

Moore definitely looks a strong 6'2'' in his early Bond films. He is only slightly shorter than the 6'3'' Yaphet Kotto in Live and Let Die for example.
By the end of his Bond career he looks like he may have gone down to about 6'1''. He still looks no shorter than 6'.

Some poeple lose there first cm even when they are in there 30s. There is also poeple who barely shrunks (think of Chris Lee). From what I know the avarage man lose 6 cm when he is in his 80s. Height lost is for everyone different, also for celebs. Moore definetly looked 6 ft 2 when he was in his 30s and early 40s.
Whe must also renember that Connery co-starred Costner, Ford, Cage and other 6 ft or 6 ft 1 guy's when he was close to his 60s or in his 60s. When I watch The Untouchables I can't see him any shorter than 6 ft 2 and he was 57 years old! Then we have the 60s movie's in wich he looks 189/190 cm + The measurement of 189 cm of Mr Universe. Definetly 189 cm his heyday.

There is a lot of talk about connery being 6'1.5" tall, but there's no denying that he's had at least an inch on several co-stars and other actors who are supposedly 6'1": Roger Moore, Harrison Ford, Kevin Costner, Shane West and on and on. Either all these guys are lying (which is definitely possible for some of them) or Connery is 6'2".

The first picture posted by Gramps is interesting because Victor Garber and Sean Connery look around the same size (peak height for both allegedly 6'2"), but Alfred Molina looks about an inch taller than those two and Alan Alda looks about an inch shorter than Garber and Connery. This is odd, since all these men are supposed to be 6'2" (yeah, Garber is 6'1" according to this site). I'm wondering if the standing positions of these guys is to the disadvantage of Alda, who I've seen in person recently and who still looks about 6'2".

Sorry Mario, that's inconsistant.
First he shrunks 4cm 'fore his 80s when connery is totally OK(about his 60s). Then he keeps very well his height past this age.
Isn't easier to say he has mantained both an excellent posture in his backbone and a lot of his former height. To me he was a legit 6'1. no more

I have only seen good pictures of Moore and Connery of the 80s and 90s. Maybe Moore has lost more height, not everyone lose the same height... Moore doesn't look any shorter than 6 ft 0.5 nowedays and he is in his 80s, when the avarage male is close to his 80s he ussualy has lost 6 cm and if Moore was 185 cm at his peak, he has losed only 1 cm in height! In fact he looked close to 188 cm in his first Bond movie's and in The Saint series.

Lol, Ford is clearly smaller than his fictional Dad.
And yes, they do not take to much work to conceal that in some scenes, but when they are camera close ups, they try to do so in some manner or another.
To me connery was 6'2" when young, easy to see when compared to 6' -6'1" actors.
He was also taller than moore mario, so he could not be 6'2", and don't come with shrunkment as he wasn't much older than a couple of years than Sean.

Maybe 2" taller than the 5'11" Scott Glenn:

Bottom line: I think Connery was close to 6'2 in the '50s and '60s, but has maybe shrunk an inch or so in later life.

Sean Connery was probably 5 ft 11 or maybe close to 6 ft but not quite at his peak. I readed that he wored flesh coloured lifts when he was barefoot too look 6 ft 2 or 6 ft 3. He hasn't lost so much height, he is probably still 5 ft 11.

I believe that they are accurate measuring guy's for the Mr Universe events. Connery was in the tall man devision as we all know, the man next to him in the famous picture is at least 6 ft tall. If the guy next to Connery isn't 6 ft tall he don't would be in the tall man devision. Do you get it? So Connery is two inches taller than a guy who is at least 6 ft tall, so Connery is for sure not shorter than 6 ft 2. He has been measured at 6 ft 2.4 (not 6 ft 2.5) and that was Connerys height.

I'm not insulting Bogart, he is also one of my favourite actors but there is still poeple who insist that he was only 5 ft 4, wich is stupid.

Interesting comments Mario, specially that of James Caan.
He always has been listed as 6' even, but nowadays he looks more like 5'9",
an excessive shrinkage, even if he has been unlucky with osteoporosis/spine problems. Was he ever that tall, i doubt it. Did Wayne used raisers? I ignore it, but in the searchers he towered his co-star at 6'1" (sorry crappy memmory,can't remember that lad's name).

Tip for Mr. Klaus; If you take a picture of the TV screen use the close-up mode
(it's the one with the flower). Then you might have almost a 100 % gaurantee that you're picture is clearer. I pressume you did take it with a Kodak easy share CX7525? Good luck!!

Connery looked no taller to me then in the 6-1 range in all of his movies to be honest. The Bond taliors say he was 6-1.5 at his peak, and Connery even said he was 6-1.5 at his peak.

Sean Connery himself has said a lot of different things
At the time he played Bond he said that he was 6 ft 2 and he as also said in numerous inteviews that he is 6 ft 2.
Connery has been measured at 6 ft 2.4 and in in some inteviews he says 6 ft 2.5 .
When Connery answers is height in cms he says 189cm.
According to you he has sayd on Jay Leno that he 6 ft 1.5, I don't know if it is true but it's possible, he looks those days around that height and it's from an interview of 2003 when Connery was 73 years old.
Connery is taller than Michael Caine and you can't use the excuse that he wores lifts because in the movie that they have together Connery wored sandals!

When Connery answers is height in cms he says 189cm.
According to you he has sayd on Jay Leno that he 6 ft 1.5, I don't know if it is true but it's possible, he looks those days around that height and it's from an interview of 2003 when Connery was 73 years old.
Connery is taller than Michael Caine and you can't use the excuse that he wores lifts because in the movie that they have together Connery wored sandals!

In this picture you can see a lot of guy's of the mr Universe tall competetion. All those guy's are 6 ft +. The guy next to connery (number 25) is at least 6 ft and Connery looks a lot taller than him, more than 2 inches in my opinion.

Connery was in 2003 an inch taller than Laurence Fishburne who is 184 cm wich means that Connery was in 2003 186/ 187 cm. This would also mean that Connery has never shrunk! The avarage male begins losing height when he reach his 50s, some even in ther 40s (Like my dad). I don't would be surprised if Connery wasnt at 189 cm in 1987. I still think that Connery was the tallest Bond and Lazenby and Dalton close to him.
Maybe moore is standing on something Yao.

It is also strange that Connery was woring his shoes when he got measured for the Mr. Universe contest. Height is really important for that kind of contests, and they try to be the most accurate that they can.

I see a an inch of difference between Costner and Connery. But we have still the other actors. and it is possible that Connery wasn´t at his full height in 1987, the most men start losing height at her 50s.

Well a website claims his 189cm height was officially measured with shoes in 1953 in a bodybuildind contest.
Is it so wrong of Connery to say 6-23 when he was 6-1.5?
I think not.
Also just watch The Untouchables, I just did to check this.
Kevin Costner claims he is 6-1, in the film Connery is clearly exactly half an inch taller.
In his mid 50's when Connery made this film he would not have shrunk any at that point.

Connery looks those days an inch taller than Laurence Fishburne who is little under the 6 ft 1 mark, so I suppose that he is those days this height. In every interview wich comes of the 60-70-80 and sometimes 90s he says 6 ft 2 and when he answers in CM´s he says 189cm.

Connery has never wore lifts, we have seen Connery in sandals in movie´s like In the name of Father and the Man who would be a king. We have seen Connery barefoot in Finding Forester, Some James Bond movie´s and he didn´t look shorter than 6 ft 2. The only Bond actor from witch we know for sure that he wore lifts in some scenes in Goldeneye is Pierce Brosnan. There is also poeple who claim that Lazenby, Moore and Dalton wore lifts when they played Bond, but i don´t think that they wore lifts.

I have meeted 4 bond actors, Connery, Moore, Dalton and Lazenby.
I saw Connery 5 years ago in Spain when he lived in Mallorca, he was at that time for sure 6 ft 2 or maybe a little taller.
I have meeted Moore two times, and i think that celebheights has the right height. The first time when I saw moore was at the Die Another premiere and he looked about the height as i´m, and i´m 183 cm.
I saw Lazenby and Dalton also at the Die Another Day premiere and they looked about the same height, i would say that they are days 186- 187 cm. I have to say that Lazenby shoes looked kinda rare,maybe it were elavator shoes. At the time Lazenby was choosed as bond, the wanted to make him into the new connery, they gived him then 2 inch elavator shoes to look 6 ft 2 barefoot. I don´t know if it is true but i don´t would be surprised if Lazenby was only 6 ft 1 at his peak.

From Russia With Love was on the other day and Connery seems to be a good 3 inches taller than Robert Shaw who is usually listed at 5'11.
In most films from his early days, Connery appears to be around the 1.88cm - 1.89cm mark if his shoes are taken out of the equation.

As was stated by another guy, Connery wore bigger shoes then normal to look 6-3, the height they promoted him at. Thats why he might look a littler taller then others around the same or just below his height. Richard Harris is 6-1, so Connery with a half inch more on his shoes will look an inch taller at least then Harris.

Viper, you have said that three times in the Connery page. You can better rent/ buy some Connery movie's of the 60s or 70s, compare then Connery to his co-stars and then take a conclusion. In Robin and Marian (1976), Connery is 1.5 inch taller than Richard Harris.

In the Goerge Lazenby page I have posted a photo of the second in wich Desmond is full Straight and Lazenby also. Both guy's have a similiar height. But we can not base or facts in one scene, I don't have watched so much lazenby's movie's. But he looks to me a maximum of 1.89 CM in his Bond movie.
In the Dalton page I have posted that Timothy Dalton is clearly two inches taller than Billy Zane in Gleopatra (and both guys wore sandals). Are you gonna say that Dalton wore flesh-coloured lifts in his sandals? Perhaps why is Dalton as tall as Benicio Del Toro in License to kill? 6 ft + 2 inches of his heals would be 6 ft 2, right? Benicio is a strong 6 ft 2 + 1 inch of his shoes would be 6 ft 3? Robert Davi looks in every scene in License to Kill taller than Dalton and Del Toro, he looks 6 ft 2 in his most recent photo's, but in License to Kill he doesn't look shorter than 6 ft 3, I also renember also a movie in wich Davi looks 2 inches taller than Arnold Schwarzenegger. I think that Davi is the one who wore lifts.
It's also a fact that Connery has been measured without shoes, so Connery was in his 20s 1.89 CM, and I suppose that he was still that height at the time he played Bond.

Ehm I would say that Connery is slighty taller than Llewelyn, a cm or Two.
And Dalton ins't two inches shorter than Edwards in Hawks, I rent that movie last night and Dalton has such a bad posture in that movie, he isn't fully straight and that makes him shorter than Edward but when he is full straight he is as tall as that Edward guy. Ah and about the scene in License to kill in wich Dalton looks shorter than Davi, Dalton is barefoot and Davi has his shoes on. And Brosnan did not suddenly grown when he become Bond, in the most of his 80s movie's he looks the same height as what he looks in Goldeneye.
"Roger Moore - He was 6'0" in height barefoot, when he was cast as Bond in 1972 at age 44. Through making A View To A Kill, his last Bond film in 1984-5 at age 56-57, he was still 6 feet even barefoot. When he played Bond they gave him 2 inch heeled shoes, rather than one inch heeled shoes."
Yaphet Kotto was 3 inches taller than Moore in Live and let die, This story would make sense if Kotto also wore lifts.

Er, Klaus - "because Desmond Llewelyn, Charles Gray and other bond actors are listed as 6 ft 2 and Connery is taller than those guys."
Look at any Q scene and you'll see Connery is just ever so slightly shorter than Llewelyn!
Dalton is 2" shorter than Ant Edwards in Hawks so that part about him wearing lifts in all movies except that one is spot on.
Brosnan - how can ANYBODY not see that he suddenly 'grew' after becoming Bond? He has worn elevator shoes in every film since Goldeneye. Watch 'Live Wire', 'The long good friday' - any pre-95 film with Brosnan and tell me with a straight face he is 6'1"!!

That 189cm measurement it's supposedly correct because it was for a bodybuilding contest and they are presumably measured by medical staff. Said this i don't belive it all. Many sport stars are rounded up even a pair of inches to be more attractive for teams, Arnold Schwarzenegger also cheated (pecata minuta) ;).
