I think you've been reduced to stealing Ironage threads lol I guess they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery lol

Guniess Book of World Records lists Arnold's height as 6'1" and that sounds about right .

He's between 6"1 and 6"2 that's what most sources cite him as. Either way, who cares... it's not like Sly Stallone lying about being 5"10 while being 5"6-5"7 in reality.

Since Arnold lied about all his other stats, I'm sure he lied about his height too.

He looks to be a few inches taller than Ronnie. Shoes would add one inch and shoe lifts can add another two easily. I would say he is about 5'11 in reality.

What do you guys think?

Matt, Mike Katz owns my gym. He is a legit 6'1". In every picture I have seen with he and Arnold the oak is a smidge taller. I bet Arnold was about 6'1.5" in his day.

It never ends with you guys. Always a conspiracy or Synthol or
Little hercules has bicep implants, etc.....
I worked on a movie set awile back ( 1999 ) and Stood right next to Arnold. I am 6 foot even barefoot. I was wearing shoes and Arnold was too. He was 2 to 3 inches bigger than me. He was not wearing any lifts ( who came up with that one ) So, 6-2 or taller is a fact !!!!!
End of story and thread. ** I cant wait for some bozo to say
" He must have levatated himself " Newsflash bafoons : He's 6-2.
Side note : I remember thinking he had the biggest noggin I had ever seen. ( Maybe your thread should be about Arnolds Gh head and face )
I'd believe that one. One big horse face he had !!!

Exactly. I really don't Arnold would need to lie about his height. According to people on here Arnold lied about his height, weight, waist size and gear he took. It's kind of pathetic.

That's what happens when you're successfull, people will hate on you for everything and try to pick you apart every chance they get.

As I said, shoe lifts can easily add a few inches. Given how insecure Arnold was I'm sure he used them.

Matt, how do you "know" Arnold was insecure?

I have met him twice. I am 5'10 and my father (who was also present) is 6'. Arnold was about two inches taller than him. Hate to burst your bubble but I don't think he was lying.

Yup, the man is around 6'2", I don't understand how anyone would think this is not the case?

NO NO NO!!!! you are WRONG!!!! Arnold was really a Latvian woman named Olga. All those muscles were actually clay.

I would say that given his mistreatment of Lou in Pumping Iron. What kind of man feels the need to do something like that to a person with a disability and an overbearing father who he was obviously emotionally dependent on?

It's sad people look at Arnold in Pumping Iron and consider that to be confidence. It's just evidence that most people don't know what true confidence really means.

Wow Carl Jung who?

Well I am almost 6'1". Take it from there. He is 6'2" at most.
