Festus was also clearly shorter than Kane, both in the ring (in Kane style boots) and at last years hall of fame ceremony. I would think Taker should have an inch or so on Festus if he bothers stand up straight.
It's sometimes hard to see an inch in a match though.

Yes, I'm looking forward to seeing that match KingNick; I'll say Taker will be definitely taller.

On Smackdown this week, Undertaker fights Festus. If I'm not mistaken, Festus is the same guy who played the fake Kane. Regardless the dude is huge, has to be at least 6'6", so it'd be interesting to see height-wise.

this confirms their height. with 6'1 tod grishem. kane and taker
That only confirms what we already know, what we've been debating endlessly for god knows. 1'' difference, at least 0.5'' footwear advantage in Kane's favor. btw Todd Grisham's 6'0'' if he's lucky.

Here's how I see it all...Taker told me he was a legit 6'7.5 or 6'8 too. also Big show is a legit 7'0 feet tall , to. he had like 14 - 15 inches on Mayweather too. 5'8 plus 15 inches equals 7 feet too. okay.
OCD too.

The Undertaker is shorter than Kane, but he's definetly 6'8, 6'9. I mean who's gonna argue with him.

Murray Big , if you show us just a picture of you standing next another person or a door or something, you'll have less people harassing you about your height. We don't exactly need a photo of you and 'Taker.

IMO Show does nto have several inches on Undertaker. Show has around 4" on Undertaker IMO from past videos and photos; Khali has around 5" on Taker. Taker 6'7.5" barefoot and maybe even 6'8"; Show around 6'11.5" barefoot and Khali 7'1" barefoot.

Murray, the problem isn't that no one believes you met Undertaker, the problem is that some don't believe you're in the 6'10" range. We're pretty passionate about things on here :>) just upload a picture of you standing in front of a door or with another person or something and the wolves will back off.

Frank: I know you don't frequent the Big Show's page that often, so I decided to come to you to ask a question I asked on Show's page. When I used to frequent this page, you told me that you believed that the Undertaker was 6' 9. You met him in person, that's what he told you and you said he looked it. Ok, but you know the Big Show has several inches on the Undertaker. So how can you say that the Big Show is not a 7-footer if you can believe the Undertaker is 6' 9?

Murray, I won't doubt your claim, but if you don't provide pics most will disregard you here as the nature of this site. It's pretty well proven that Undertaker is not above 6'8" barefoot. Still, that could mean you are only an inch taller than him, and a difference like that can be hard to tell any difference at all considering there is around 5" of height above our eyes, the view from which we gauge height.

Murray if he was the same height as you, then you are not 6'10.5" BAREFOOT.
I'm sorry but it is a proven fact that The Undertaker is not 6'10" barefoot- i think he has admitted that himself.
Tbh if he was 6'10" barefoot, almost no-one would guess him at less than that.

You cant compare the Bundy staredown pics with Taker and nash, Look at Taker's posture, hes blantantly slouching and thus throwing away nearly 2 inches, and not to mention that he might have bent his legs a bit.

I'm a much bigger NBA fan than a WWE fan, so that's my yardstick - Taker looks a bit shorter than Lamar Odom and a lot(!) heavier, having met them both. Taker's gotta be at least 6'8" with shoes and 275+ pounds.

I think you can make an arguable point that there's only 3" there but there's certainly more than 2". I still see 4" and I think Nash has a full 2" on Undertaker, which would make him 6" taller than Bundy, which it certainly looks like in their pic.

jt undertakers posture stinks in that picture also the top of his head is a little higher. I actually tried this , i had a staredown withone of my friends whos 5'10-5'11 and with a loose posture looking downward it really can make you look shorter Click Here pause at 7:11 and tell me if thats the same kind of posture that he kad with khali or any tall people. He is still around 4 inches taller with that leaning in posture

I think Undertaker's posture has to be taken in to consideration in that Bundy pic; Taker could stand up a bti more straight IMO. ALso, if ALbert is 6'6" or mayeb even 6'7" then that would give more reason to believe Taker is close to 6'8". I also believe Albert to have been an internal lift wearer; even if he didn't Taker still had him by 1" or so.

Looks like a 3.5''-4'' difference between Bundy/Taker and 5''-5.5'' w/Nash which proves my 6'8.5'' estimate on Nash to be true. Take note MagicTouch.

i am wearing the same black sneakers with dupree as in the chart photo, i actually come out at ~184cm in that photo in shoes because my hair doesn't give me any height. as far as the shoes go, they give between 0.8-1 inch, i have a pair white nike running shoes and they definitely give more, roughly 1.1" (i am wearing them with heidenreich), i tried on my brothers 1.4 inch Nike Shox the other day and it was like wearing heels lol.

Ok Vegas, if undertaker is no more than 6'7, then Kevin Nash is no more than 6'8.5 which such height to some of you would think is blasphemy
The photos some of you post to make Undertaker appear not so tall are usually when he has bad posture or the camera angle is grossly out of his favour - just shows there is an agenda with some of you here.

yeah KingNick it was an indie show, i never heard of the guys before, their website says NLW, not sure if they are even Irish but it was the first proper wrestling show i remember in the west of ireland since the days when Giant haystacks used to perform over here in the 1980s so i had to go, the WWE usually only play the two big cities on the island (dublin and belfast) and ignore everywhere else, same with WCW when they were running and WWA too Click Here
dupree, eugene and Oulette were performing for the local fed (IWW) that a few of my friends work for. Sabu and Cryme Tyme will be there in June so hopefully i can get photos with them

Frank; i met taker in streets and that day he certainly didn't look 2 inches taller than heidenreich in streets, i would say its one inch max and at this point thats me been generous (unless the day i met taker he had an awful slouch), the video MikeV10 posted taker is clearly closer to the camera. i would like to meet taker again in person just to be sure though because he only walked by me but taker didn't look more than 6'7 to me that day.
taker looks about an inch taller than you compared to heidenreich and me but then you said paul bearer was 5'10 and if so taker would only be half an inch taller next to him than me, but then again photos don't give always a true view and taker i assume is in gear with you with heidenreich wearing sneakers with me
brother_h; i have only seen snitsky and heidenreich in backstage videos and in those steve austin barely looks 2 inches shorter than the undertaker so we know those cannot be taken trusted, as far as animal goes he towers over him by at least 6 inches+ Click Here Click Here Click Here the video wait until the end Click Here thats more height on animal than earthquake had on him in 1992 in a staredown (i will try to find the video i have it on vhs)
i am surprised this photo has not been brought up, he is clearly 2 inches taller than this guy on flat ground and in streets and obviously leaning very badly Click Here roughly same height difference with Big Vis Click Here and Click Here

heudenreich was 6'5, he was an inch shorter than snisky. oh wait wouldnt that make him shorter? his billed height was 6'7 and 275. and i remember when he was with animal, animal was like 6'1 and wasnt that much shorter than him.

Great pics Vegas! Was that after an Indy show or something? I definitely agree Heidenreich is no less than 6'6" maybe he is 6'7" though WWE was billing him as 6'8". Snitsky's height still beats the hell out of me though unless he wears lifts.

tanx guys; i am 5'11 barefoot or 6ft in shoes (whichever you want), my brother is 5'11.5-5'11.75" barefoot and my friend is 6'4 barefoot or around 6'5 in shoes Click Here(taken about 10.30pm-11pm after bulls and celtics game in united center Chicago april 2006) Click Here (that photo was taken after a few hours of hiking in the mountains around Innsbruck, Austria. The height chart is located half way up a mountain overlooking the city.
whatever about these guys true barefoot heights they were all nice guys (Dupree a bit arrogant but at least he posed for a photo). Heidenreich is so much different from his wrestling character, soft spoken, really nice guy, same with Pierre Carl Oulette formerly of the Quebecers who said he told me he was trying his best to have one last run in the WWE before retiring.

6'6'' for Heidenreich, 6'5'' Test and 6'6.5'' A-Train would be my guess. Vegas, would 5'11.5'' be right for yourself (do correct me if i'm wrong)

Vegas, I remember you said you were 5'11 plenty of times. Heidenrich looks between 6'5 and 6'6 there. I'd go with 6'5 1/2 compared to you.

They're cool pics Vegas. I'm surprised how tall Dupree is. I watched him wrestle the other day and thought to myself I bet he's like 6'1" really since he's billed at 6'3", but he does actually look his billed height. WOW! Heidenreich is deffo 6'6" minimum and I though Test was 6'6" legit but maybe he's more 6'5". I remember he wasn't that much taller than Edge when they wrestled just much, much bulkier. Btw, how tall are you Vegas?

I think Kingnicks evidence is slightly biased, its really hard to gauge with the image moving like that..my estimate 6inches 7.5mm.

Heidenreich told me he was 6'7 and 282lb, and he could have easily passed for that tall; he is just enormous. I honestly couldn't go below 6'6 for Heidenreich, i believe JT said that is what he was listed in pro football as?? He looked every bit as tall as kane and taker in streets, and had to duck under the 6'6 doors, my brother is a little in front of us here Click Here
first thing i noticed about Sandmans is that posture his awful in person, its not too bad here but i thought he slouched slightly as the photo was being taken so he could possibly be close to a full 6'2, though with his posture it would be very easy to underestimate this guy, at least 6'1.5 barefoot in any case Click Here we are right next to the wall there and for reference that is a standard UK/Ireland 6'6 198cm door to our right Click Here
From my vantage point Test didn't look as tall as heindenreich in streets, masters didn't look as heavy as Dupree who really is big but he still looked about 235lbish, but for definite Test was two inches taller than masters in streets, they were standing side by side for a while, then walked to the dressing room with each other.
dupree does have a slight footwear advantage here, he is wearing 1.4" Nike Shox as is my brother (so both have maybe half an inch advantage over me and my friend) and my brother is again closer to the camera there. Again there is a 6'6 door just behind us there for reference Click Here its the door in this photo Click Here
my 5'11 friend got a photo with Eugene but it didn't come out good, eugene looks about half an inch taller. his posture is alot better these days because he is slipping in an out of character
Gangrel was also there one of the nights but it was hard to determine his height because he was wearing huge footwear to go with his gothic character (he was wearing boots goths normally wear) another ex WWE/TNA guy called Joe E legend was walking around after the show and he is billed at 6'4 but is about 6'1 in reality (maybe just slightly under)
here is Pierre Carl Oulette better known as Jean Pierre Lafitte aka one half of the Quebecers former WWF tag champs and then later as the pirate dude, he does seem to have a glass eye if you look closely at the pic, i thought he was just slightly under 5'11 even though he is billed at 6'1 and was billed at 6'2 at the show i attended. I didn't listen to what the announcers billed him at weight wise over the wkend but surely he is not the 235lb claimed on obsessed with wrestling (at least not as of right now). He looked at least 250lb to me in person, huge huge guy though, massive arms and his legs are just ridiculously wide

Think in general wwe add 2 inch's to wrestlers heights. Undertaker has been said to tell people he is 6-8 and 6-9 out of character. So believe his peak height to be 6-8.5 thats where the 6-10.5 came from. But now believe him to be 6-7.5 and as skinny as hell!!

Vegas, cool. I agree with those heights mostly. Test I thought would be at least 6'5. Heidenreich looks 6'5 since he was an inch taller than 6'4 Snitsky. Masters I think was a strong 6'2 minimum, if not 6'3 at most. He was 260lbs at least at some point before he got off roids.
If you can post some of the photos.

Hulk Fan, be aware that Taker has taken some serious punishment to his body in the last 20 years. Wrestlers are NOT the average Joe Blow who works at their office and drives home in their Subaru. These men put their bodies on the line 200-300 nights a year for decades. So, a 45 year old like Taker (who I do believe underwent surgery more than once) is not a typical 45 year old.

Whether Taker was born in 1965, or 1962 it is irrelevant to me because either way he is way too young to have lost any height unless he underwent a surgery, which I am not aware of.

Well I M D B.com which is accurate on birthdays and has UT at March 24 1962 which would mean he's turning 46 within 2 weeks.'
Not necessarily Alex. Data on there usually comes through agents of those listed and they act in their clients interest. I know of quite a few listings of birthdays that are off by between 1 and 10 years. Sometimes the wrong date also. Various people. I could mention a few but I won't. As Danimal said, UT may have been listed as 1961 once and now sometimes he comes up as 1965. Some people want to be older when young and younger later on when they are not. I do think Taker is nearly 46 though, so I think 1962.

that sid and taker photo JT posted has to be from 1992, taker wasn't wearing the gray gloves and kickpads in 1997, he changed to purple upon his return at summerslam 1994 (undertaker vs undertaker)
KingNick; edge is only wearing sneakers, if you look at other photos even the ones you posted you will see that. Edge has worn huge footwear in the past but as far as wrestling boots today goes he is getting about 1-1.2" boost as he is not even wearing the biggest sneakers possible. the kickpads are so low they give a distorted view, in reality the heel of his shoes are low Click Here

the March 1965 figure seems correct

JT, I can't speak for Alex2 but I think he was referring to the EARLY 90s. That pic with Sid you posted was from 1997
Alex2 says on 11/Mar/08
Tob be perfectly honest, Takers footware in the early 90's was flat as anything (like 0.5" max)
The pic with Gonzalez were the boots he normally wore up till Rumble '94.
Vegas, your photo showed only the bottom of his shoe, that doesn't prove anything. My point is not whether or not he's wearing wrestling boots my point is that I think he has extra leverage in what he's wearing.

Alex 2, if Taker's boots gave him 0.5" max, what's your estimate for Sid's boots then?? Click Here Taker actually wore different boots when facing Gonzalez. Click Here

Taker's age is a mystery. Some places say 1962 for his date of birth yet others say 1964 and I even hear 1965. It is said he graduated high school in 1983. Actually, here's his high school's website trivia that says 1983 as his year of graduation - third line down: Click Here
So if he gradutaed in 1983 he would be around 18 years old then and really could be as low as 43 years old if you do the math. I'll say 43-44 years old for Taker. Also, some interesting reading, here;s a link to Q&A on Taker from Good Ol' JR asked thru his BBQ website. JR sayd he doesn't know Taker's age but guesses late 30's - I don't know about that - prob just saying for character purposes and to be safe. JR sure gets plenty of Taker questions. Click Here

Tob be perfectly honest, Takers footware in the early 90's was flat as anything (like 0.5" max) and yet he stacked up so well to 7'6-7'7 Gonzales and 6'10 Nash, I think the reason we are all thinking he is less today is maybe because he never goes up against big men like Big Show like Alex said. Maybe well see when they go against each other if they do.

Big Show/Undertaker feud would be nice again. This time for the World title assuming UT keeps his WM winning streak alive which I hope he does. I expect to see at least 4-5 inches between the 2 unless UT puts on lifts against him.

Taker is 43 this month, he was born in 1965 not 1962 as has been reported on some sites (they are wrong!). At his age I doubt he would have lost much height naturally? I still say close to 6'8" for 'Taker when he stands up straight and stops slouching.

Alex, Taker is only 42, i wonder how he lost that height? Was it because of surgery and all the toll he takes on his body? Or is he still around 6'8? I really question Taker's height.
Taker is turning 46 this month. In the 90's Taker held his own next to the other big men, such as Gonzales and Kevin Nash. He also held his own next to Khali, when he made his debut. Quite frankly Taker doesn't look any shorter to me nowadays than what he looked in 1999 and I have a ton of matches from that period. Rumour has it that Taker and Big Show will start a feud again after Wrestlemania, so we'll probably see how well they match up today.

Alex 2, well looking at him in the ring he just appears a little shorter at least. Likely just an inch he lost, that or he wore lifts back then. He def doesn't look over 6'7 today to me though.

theres no point really to combine those pics as to the fact that sid has about 4 inches over taker in comparison to the boy. The kid does look older in the pic with taker and the photo perspective is off on the both as sid is closer to the camera and taker is farther away

I still believe UT to be 6'8 at his peak but since the early 2000's he has lost height and can look as low as 6'6 at times but I am not saying he's that short though. Likely pushing 6'7 still.

Taker COULD have been close to 6'9" peak but we will never know, he always stacked up to 6'9"-6'10"+ Nash very well. But he is DEFINATLEY not above 6'8" now. I see 6'7.5" now.

Taker and Sid are (about) the same height,Taker has a high forehead resulting to a lower eye level.The verdict is 6'8" easily for Taker,about 6'8" for sid and 6'9" maybe 6'10" max for Nash.

Takers Ministry days (with his bigger boots) were in "99" , the Wrestlemania 13 match was in "98". I Think taker wears normal sized wrestling boots in "98" against Sid.

I believe Taker is barely taller then Sid. Sid has a higher eye level then Taker. when they're standing face to face, Sid eyes are looking down into Taker's. However Undertaker has a long forehead, which gives Taker the slight advantage. I mean we're talking about half inch or inch at most over Sid. if Taker had a normal forehead he would be around 6'6". in my opinion Taker 6'8" Sid 6'7". but I guess we will never know unless we get a tape measure and see how tall they are and take a picture as evidence.

JimmyDavid, I just don't see that. I do think Sid appears bigger at first glance and taller, but in reality I think they're the same size or UT has him by maybe a half an inch b/c of his long forehead. UT's eyes are lower than Sid's so its decieving. Anyone else agree?

I don't know where all these people are getting the idea that Taker is taller than Sid because he clearly is not. Must be because he has more fans or something. Somehow, Taker looks taller than Sid when they are moving around the ring but it's when they get close that we can clearly see that Sid is a little taller. Just look at JT's pic down below for God's sake.. it's obvious. Even if you scroll down to RED's pics, you can see that they are from a time when Taker had the tallest footwear he ever did and Sid only regular boots, and still taker fails to tower over him, in fact Sid still gives the impression of being the taller man.

Click Here if you save the image and zoom in, you can get a better look. this could explain why Roberts was about 3 inches shorter then Taker back in 92. also interesting to note in this pic as well to see how huge Zeus boots are to make him look about the same height or taller then Hogan from Survivor Series 89.

I personally think UT was just under 6'8 peak height; but the aspect to consider with your comment Vegas is that he did not appear 6'8 to you in casual clothes.
What this perhaps implies, considering your perspective is not that innacurate, is that he is indeed not over 6'8. The reason being is simply that if this man was over 6'8 BAREFOOT, then he would undoubtedly seem 6'9-6'10 or more to the naked eye by those considerably shorter than him: This is possibly why i think Frank could be a little off with his perception of Taker, visually seeming 6'9 in 'ring-gear'.
This is by no means proof though that Taker was not over 6'8 because as many point out, POSTURE must be taken into consideration with this guy. Saying this, the simple fact that he was not billed over 6'8 in his youth shows that he was likely to be slightly under this mark barefoot :)

I don't see anything wrong with JT's photos posture wise either, I just think his estimations are off. Everyone who thinks UT is shorter than 6'8" seems to forget how long the guys forehead his. It's what gives him the extra boost in height. Just look at the photos with Sid.
Again, I see him as 6'8", but he now has very bad posture compared to his younger years and really only stands straight on the rare occasion someone is taller, like Khali. I'd be willing to believe he's 6'7" now, I don't think that's an extravagant guess. I just don't see lower than that. And frankly, not higher than 6'8".
And no pun intended, Sid's height on here is here is sold way too short. I've said this many times. There's not much of a difference, if any, between him and Undertaker.
In regards to Roberts, the dude is tall! I think he's a solid 6'5" to begin with plus he wore huge boots. Just watch his WM8 match with UT, who wore boots that were nearly flat for his first 3 years in WWF/E. Of course everyone chooses to ignore that fact when I point it out tho :>)
I don't see anything wrong with JT's photos posture wise either, I just think his estimations are off. Everyone who thinks UT is shorter than 6'8" seems to forget how long the guys forehead his. It's what gives him the extra boost in height. Just look at the photos with Sid.
Again, I see him as 6'8", but he now has very bad posture compared to his younger years and really only stands straight on the rare occasion someone is taller, like Khali. I'd be willing to believe he's 6'7" now, I don't think that's an extravagant guess. I just don't see lower than that. And frankly, not higher than 6'8".

Taker is clearly a minimum of 6'8" based on comparisons with many other listed heights on this site. If Big Show is listed 7' here and Nathan Jones at 6'10", then it's hypocritical to list guys like Kane and Taker below 6'8" just based on visuals. Nathan Jones is straight up not taller than Kevin Nash. Comparisons show Nathan Jones to be no more than 1.5" taller and Big Show no more than 4" taller. I still want to see Taker's "lifts" from the Ministry era because I think there is some poor perception on the boots as I've seen some really terrible illustrations of how people think the boot heels work.
Khali 7'1" - 7'1.5"
Big Show 7' - 7'0.5" (possibly down to 6'11" now)
Nash - 6'10.5"
Nathan Jones - 6'9.75"
Kane and Taker - 6'8.25"-6'8.5"

Alex2, they're right. I met Rico after an event once, he's only around 5'10". And Shock of Electric, I agree, UT has spoken many many times out of character saying he's 6'8" the quote above was when he was speaking in character (I use to have the magazine it was from).

It seems like Rob is assuming everyone is inflating their heights by an inch or two, the only one he's taking their word for is Austin when he says he's 6'1''. Whats with this Rob? There's evidence of Dalip Singh looking his claimed 7'2'', Undertaker looking 6'9'' etc.

But Taker said he's 6'8" or 6'9" countless times in interviews and that's not good enough? Truly backwards height amnesty here. In any event, he is at the bottom barrel least 6'8". I have a feeling it is based on this picture alone and you are underestimating the top of his head. Taker's eyes are virtually centered on his skull.

'Taker actually looks 6'8" when he stands straight up next to legit 7'1" Great Khali. That surprised me actually because he usually looks about 6'6" next to Batista, i guess because his posture isn't great with shorter guys.

this is what my take is on how alberts foot is looking in those boots of his, giving him closer to 2 1/4 inches...
That's a good job Nick, but every shoe has an inner lining above the actual sole, including Taker's. The back of Taker's heel is off the ground as high as Albert's is Click Here I still think Taker edges out Albert but it's not even close to two inches, at least as of 2001.

Alberts can be 6'6.5 barefoot i think taker at this time is 6'7.5 barfoot but 6'8 peak height. With that footwear advantage of an inch it brings albert to a little over the 6'7 mark. And taker has a quarter inch advantage over albert anyway.
Also you never know maybe albert was sleeping around all day and then woke for his altercation with taker. You just never know

Was he not billed as 7'2 on WWE around 5 or 6 years ago and then they changed it to 7'. Around the same time I watched him being questioned on a British TV show and he claimed 7'1 then.
I haven't watched the wrestling much in past few years and I didn't see him introduced as Andre's son.All I know is he made hogan look like a little boy on that clip. I think he was 7'1 then and is probably 7'0 now, but I can't believe 6'10 though,not even now.

Yaspaa; Big Show was never anywhere near 7'4, the only reason WCW listed him at that height was to play out the role of andre the giants son (andre was famously listed at 7'4), he also wore the same ring attire as andre had done in his heel years to further enhance the character.
wight was listed at 7'1 in basketball circa 1989-1993 Click Here Click Here Click Here Click Here
however the fact that the WWE billed him at 7ft flat leads me to believe he probably was never taller than that though, very interesting that the WWE would bill a guy lower than what he was listed in a legit sport???

JT, in regards to Spivey, if you look on youtube at their tag matches, he has on something like a cowboy boot. I don't think EVERY wrestling boot gives a full inch advantage, some may give .5" I've been pointed out many times from 1990 - 1994 UT's boots were almost flat. My point is if Spivey was 6'6" or 6'7" his shoes could bring him to the same height as UT in a normal shoe.
The only time I think UT wore "lifts" was very briefly in 1994 when he faced the fake UT and during his ministry days. When he was the bad ass, he wore something like a work boot which gives about 1.5" give and since he's returned as the dead man he's worn a normal wrestling shoe, which to me is at most .75" give.
JT, in regards to Spivey, if you look on youtube at their tag matches, he has on something like a cowboy boot. I don't think EVERY wrestling boot gives a full inch advantage, some may give .5" I've been pointed out many times from 1990 - 1994 UT's boots were almost flat. My point is if Spivey was 6'6" or 6'7" his shoes could bring him to the same height as UT in a normal shoe.

Takers posture with bundy stinks, he always does that. However, in the backstage altercation with nash and taker there was an inch and a half difference

Well JT Kama is really up there on his toes> I tried it and i have done this before you gain about 3 inches when you cheat, Also I really do not think taker is really cheating there, if you want to compare you can literally see a near 4 inch gap under kama's foot and you dont see anything under takers, so you saying they have an inch of "cheating" between one another is out there. Funnt because i actually thought this was an impressive picture showing the undertakers height. With Kama cheating bringing himself to about 6'8 with his shoes on taker is still edging him out by a near two inches, but we will take an inch away making taker 6'9 with his shoes and 6'8 barefoot :)

Taker still looks 6'8 today, anything below that peak is just ridiculous.

JT. Taker looks down alot with Shorter guys so he dont look as tall belive me he is very tall You have to seem him up close to know what im saying and your right he could be 6ft 7 barefoot (possible) I dont believe Taker was on his Tippy toes in that picture because he looks the same amount taller than Paul Bearer like he always does

KingNick, the problem is that Taker has been known to wear enhanced footwear as well, especially during the Ministry days. He

These two picks are two great examples of why I think UT could still be 6'8" today but no smaller than 6'7" Click Here and Click Here the Kane pic shows the era where we all know he had massive lifts and there doesnt look more than 2" between the two, maybe even 1", because UT has such a long forehead. Same thing with the Heidenreich pic (I don't think he's less than 6'5"). I think that's why so many people mistaken UT for 6'6" because of his eye line being so low. Look at the BACK of his head.

I have collected quite a few face to face pics as well. some I sure you guys have seen. some credit goes to me and a lot of credit goes to those who posted the pics. thank you all. Click Here

Thanks for the info Frank, yea i know what you mean i saw a guy today who must have been easily 6'6" if not more but i could not estimate his height well as if i could estimate a 5'8-6'0 guy.

Alex2 When Taker told me he was 6ft 9 he looked it but then again anyone 6ft 7 and up its hard to judge and Paul Bearer i would say is 5ft 10 no taller than that

i remember paul orndorff being an arrogant idiot back in 85 when he and piper were feuding. i tried to talk to him but he cursed under his breath and just ignored me and my friend.i know undertaker is 6'8 little taller than my 6'7 friend. but than again this was in 1997 during raw.by the way owen hart was super cool.i went to an event in san diego,and i stood at some regular hotel out there, i think motel 6 or something,and owen hart was checking in.i could not believe it.i started talking to him he was a down to earth awesome personality guy.i was surprised he was by himself.no other wrestlers were there at all.that was a good moment.seemed to be 5'8 or 5'9 though.different than bret.bret seemed to be a bit arrogant,snobbish type.no encounters or conversations ever with bret.does anybody know out of experience what kind of person he seems to be outside of the ring?

Frank, how tall do you think he looked in person? He was probably easily 6'8 when you met him. Any guess on Bearers height also? Hes always looked 5'10 to me.

Frank, that's awesome man. I know one or two people that have met 'Taker and have read about other experiences. Generally most people say similar to what you said that he's very quiet but real nice. Someone told me once that he was giving autographs at a hotel. He excused himself, went to his room to get paper to write on, and came back down to sign more autographs. Now there's a cool guy

Alex2, Bearer seemed grouchy and Taker did not talk alot but he was Friendy
When i went to the event i seen Taker and Paul Bearer talking in a corner and me and my friend snuck pass a Security Guard and i went up to them and asked them if i could take a picture with them and Taker seemed willing but Paul Bearer seemed annoyed and i said to Taker Damm Your Tall how tall are you and he replied 6 FT 9 and then i thanked him and wished him and his family a Merry Christmas because it was a Christmas event @ the Paramount Theater in Madison Square Garden ...Taker did not talk much but he came across friendly

Vegas, Gonzales foot isnt that much bigger than Taker's, im willing to say Taker takes about a size 15-16 maybe.

Frank, do you mean Bearer was just acting as he annoyingly does in his WWF mood or he was just nasty? And did Taker actually talk much? As he was playing a guy who really doesnt say much lol.

Yeah we have to consider the fact that its possible to meet ANY celebrity on a bad day. I never met or know anyone that's met Paul Bearer but he seems like a cool guy in all the shoot interviews I've seen him in.
Speaking of Grouches, I don't mean to sound like one, but please post a pic to back up your claims if you're just going to right "so and so is this tall" I could be just as aggravating and say Undertaker is 7'.

About Batista in person. When I got a picture with him and Melina in late 2006. The guy looked kinda mad sitting at the table so I didn' even bother asking him to stand and he could have looked happier for an autograph session. Could have been a bad day because I have seen fan pictures with him smiling before.

actually Orton is quite nice in person, kane and show are ok, the last time i met both, neither were in a good mood, especially show but he took time out to take photos and autographs anyway, when he said "I'm going" nobody argued or followed him in case he decided to eat us all lol. first two times i met big show he wouldn't stop for photos though; my brother met lesnar and said he wasn't nice at all.
on the subject of gonzales he wore leather covering his boots which may have made them look bigger, his foot is far far bigger than takers so comparing gonzales' foot/boot to that of takers is like comparing your own footwear to that of a 5 year old child Click Here
i am posting this here because nobody reads khalis or big daddy v's pages, anyway khali towered over BDV last night on smackdown, at times it looked as much as 7 inches Click Here here is the full video Click Here
hard to believe big daddy v stood the exact same height as one of the tallest players today in the nfl in a number of photos ie max starks, gives you an idea how tall khali truly is there
