In 1993 I was at a formal event and Van Damme was there. At one moment I just happened to be standing right beside him. This was when he was at about the peak of his career.
I was surprised how short he was. I had always pictured him as a tall guy. He wasn’t, he was exactly my height, 5’8”. And I was surprised he wasn’t as big as I expected. He was wearing a dinner jacket which I would guess was a size 42 (I sold suits at one time when I was young). It might have been a 44, but I doubt it, surely wasn’t a 46. I would guess a size 42.
I will add, he was a very handsome guy.
