With 6ft2 Mark Henry Click Here
With Brian Shaw and Thor Click Here
yeah, i think he's a solid 6'3, maybe even a hair above it, if we give Thor 6'7,75 with Hasselhoff if he's standing tall, Zydrunas only look 1/2 inch shorter than Hoff with a much better stance Thor.i think Hoff today is still 6'3 5/8 - 6'3,75 with Rob, so strong 6'3 is ruled out for Z

He’s more like 6ft2 1/2 than a full 6ft3
Eddie is 6'1,75 at the very least, and Z look comfortably 1,5 inches taller

@lambo said he meausered 6ft3.75 at stadiometer in that shoes and he’s a half of an inch taller than big Z. Therfore big Z meausered in this pic about 6ft3.25 in shoes. I don’t think those shoes give to big Z only 0.25. A full 6ft3 is not possible according to this pic, near that (189-190 cm) is very likely
that guy has 1-2 cm more sneakers than him, what's his height?
Ian Momo 'Questionable 5'10' said on 6/Feb/22
@Joec he look at least 1 inch taller than Licis

strong-strong 6'3
Jeff R said on 17/Nov/21
191 cm +/- 0.5 cm imo.
Shaun said on 22/Sep/21
I think this guy is possibly under-estimated here, unless Eddie Hall is actually 6ft and Licis is 6’1. He looks 3-4 inches taller than Eddie Hall and at least 2 inches taller than Matins Licis.

There are few full pictures of him out there, standing close to other famous people whose height is pretty much consolidated knowledge.
Standing close to Schwarzenegger, BigZ's height can be narrowed down to a range between 190 and 191.5cm.
I wouldn't mark him more than that.

A very tall and large man with great genetics and body proportions.
I believe he is taller than 190 cm.
My guess is 191 cm.

In 2010 he claims 190 cm and 165 kg in this korean show

joec he looks that bi because he is one of the few guys on this site that claims shorter than he really is. Most people think he is 190 cm for some reason. He was probably 1 cm taller than may weak 191 cm brother. i think he is atleast 191,5 and that was he minumum looks with guys like eddie and martins licis.
joec said on 12/Nov/20
How does he look so tall next to Martins Licis?:

Solid 6ft 3 to be fair, at the very least 6'2.75
Josh Jeffords said on 2/Jul/20
Usually gave it in metric never bothered looking up he looks 6 3 by other people.
He is very oddly build huge guy obviously small hands average at best arm length not big feet either.
So wide he looks shorter than he is may well have lost a bit in his 40s but id say over 6 3 in footwear.
Alir?za said on 16/Jun/20
189-191 cm good for him but I think his peak height is taller than that is. It could be as high as 192-193. Because he carried a lot of weight in his body for a very long time. Spine may be shortened by such high weight
berta said on 4/Jun/20
rampage, this guy is a half inch shorter than alexander gustafsson when i meet them. i also thought he was 190 cm before i meet him but in reality his guy is very big.

*Don't forget to factor in my hair in the photo haha
Lambo said on 24/Sep/19
@Myself I am 6'2.75" Barefoot low. Tallest I've measured is 6'3.5" barefoot. I'd still say Big Z is very very close to 6'3" (i.e at least 190cm)
Canson said on 22/Sep/19
@Myself: yea I read up on him some. I didn’t hear of him until right before Rob added him
Myself said on 21/Sep/19
@Canson
He's considered a legend in the Strongman world. I'm not an expert, but he was dominating when the WSM had a decent amount of heavy static feats of strength and prior to his injuries. He's also a quite humble and genuine guy I believe.
He's saying he wants to come back very soon...would be interesting to see if he managed to recover from those injuries! I hope he doesn't hurt himself even more now.

Eddie calls this man like 6"6. He is not that. Just Eddie exagerating but compared to Eddie
height liar, he is close to 2 inches taller
Canson said on 19/Sep/19
I had never heard of this guy until recently
Johnson said on 18/Sep/19
Lambo if you are 6'2.75 barefoot he would be 6'2.5 max.
Animus said on 18/Sep/19
The above picture is from 2016. Seeing Arnold with Antonio Brown, it is pretty clear he is well below 6'0, i.e. about 5'11.
Myself said on 17/Sep/19
@Lambo
Interesting photo) My friend wears the same type of shoes you do there (I'm not sure, but they look very similar) and they (size 10 US) add him 2.7 cm. Are you closer to 6'2.5" or to 6'3" at a barefoot low?
I don't know how much the footwear of Zydrunas adds, but maybe it's like 1.5 cm? If so, he still doesn't look the full 6'3 to me there. If you are 6'3 3/4" barefoot then it's a different story, expecially considering his (I guess?) footwear disadvantage.
Preeme said on 16/Sep/19
So Arnie is still around 6`0 there...
Lambo said on 16/Sep/19
I have met Big Z. Click below for the pic.

In the shoes I am wearing, I am 6ft3.75" (measured with a stadiometer) and you can see I was just a fraction taller than Big Z.
So his 6'3" listing is one of the most accurate on this website. He's a legit 6'3" guy.
berta said on 16/Sep/19
Rampage, i can promise you that this Guy is at worst 6 foto 3 if he had thicker shoes than me. He is about 1-1,5 cm shorter than alexander Gustafsson in real life. i thought he was 190 cm before meeting him but in real life this guy is taller and mutch wider than it looks. makes me look like a child and if i remember right was my weight just over 120 kg in that photo. the photo with arnold is strange sometimes i Think arnold uses lifts
Canson said on 15/Sep/19
Appears more 189/190 in pics
Myself said on 15/Sep/19
@Greg
I agree that Zydrunas looks weirdly short next to Victor, but he said he looked similar or even taller than his 6'3 brother, so I doubt he was that much off. He said that he was not at his lowest there though, and that could be 1 cm off. That still doesn't put Zydrunas below 190 cm by his estimation, but I believe there is a chance of 189.5-190 range (even though he really looks at least about 3" shorter there).
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 14/Sep/19
Thank goodness he calls himself "Big Z"! I wouldn't even attempt to try and pronounce his name!!!! 🤭
Rampage(-_-_-)Clover said on 14/Sep/19
If this guy really is 6ft3, then Schwarzenegger doesn’t look under 6ft with them
Andrea said on 14/Sep/19
With
Hafthor (back in 2015), he definitely doesn't look a thing over 6'3, and possibly more 6'2-6'3:

He never was more than a 190 cm flat
Myself said on 13/Sep/19
@Greg
TBH I think he hasn't lost anything yet, maybe it's his younger appearance that fools me, but I doubt.
I always thought his 190 cm claim at his first WSM's was honest, but he could be the full 6'3 too. The user "berta" (Victor) has a photo with him (
Click Here He is 197 cm, I don't think Big Z looks above 6'3 there though) and said that he looked 191-191.5 cm to him, potentially edging his 190.5 brother. I think it's possible but I'll stick with the 190-190.5 range (although I don't exclude the possibility of 189.5-190).
When I'll manage to fix my computer I'll give my final opinion on Zydrunas and Oberst.
Tall Sam said on 13/Sep/19
Having not heard of him and just from his face on the link, he looked like maybe a heavyset (somewhat fat) fellow but then clicking on the picture, one is impressed that his upper arm is near the size of a christmas ham lol
Miss Sandy Cowell said on 13/Sep/19
The size of those arms - crikes! Big Z can have 6ft2.75 from me. 💪👨
