As we all know that bodybuilders heights (like that of pro wrestlers) are WAY overbilled and are all over the place, but I always thought that Dorian was taller than Kevin in their competition days in the early-late 90's. Kevin was billed at 5'9" and 5'9.5", yet claims 5'10". Dorian was billed at 5'10", 5'10.5" and sometimes as high as 5'11". Here we see that Kevin in recent years is clearly taller than Dorian. Dorian could have lost height over the years. His neck is looking very bent/curved in that pic.
Flex (who is next to Dorian) has been billed as low as 5'8". He's also been billed at 5'9" and 5'10" and claims to be 5'10.5". Shawn (who is next to Kevin) has been listed as 5'6" and 5'7". If anyone has any height questions, I can clear them up for you. ;)

You bet. I keep wondering why? Because all BB are insecure manlets that constantly need to compare themselves with everybody else? I know I do!

if only high heels were allowed on stage a lot of bodybuilders would feel better

Ha good point, but I'm pretty loyal to this place.
Seriously, I never understood the importance about this discussion. Only women and gay men should care about this subject (ow snap, this is GB :D)

;D jep you forgot about that again. Always think backwards.
I hardly visit other boards so I also can not make a fair comparison.

I just saw this brewing news on CNN.

Exactly only MattCock was obsessed with height

Cool Bevo! Thanks for that list. It looks legit. I'm sure Ronnie has lost height now due to his multiple back fusions and hip replacements. He looks like Arnold now (all compressed).

Neither do yours ;)

Damn, Dorian's lines are awesome in this shot. Thick all over, no exceptions
-
:)
1st 2 pics are good at evaluating their heights seeing the camera angle is straight. The 2nd 2 pics are garbage considering the camera angle and the fact that Dorian is close to the camera.
-
;)
You're really not good at this, are you? 1 pic we see Kevin with much wider leg stance, which will give Dorian the height advantage. Another one we see Dorian closer to the camera which will give Dorian the height advantage by perception. Imo, Dorian was at best 1" taller than Kevin in the 90's (maybe as little as .5"). Today I believe that Dorian has lost height and Kevin (who has been weights free for 13 years) is taller than Dorian.

Like I said I'll wait for your excuses and you didn't disappoint ;) You have your story stick to it maybe you'll get dummies to agree you

THe stage pics are better to use. These guys wear some crazy shoes that can make a difference.
-
Amazing quality in this lineup.

You cannot go by photos where they are wearing shoes. In the OP's photo Dorian is also not standing up straight. And Kevin looks like he is doing his best to elevate his height in that pic. If you look at stage photos of them where they are both barefoot it is clear that Dorian was a little taller.
