Think he was around 6"10. It was his features that made him "giant-like" head, hands etc I watched Legends of Wrestling, Pat Patterson was shooting every other big man down because "Andre was the true giant" when really he was the same height as (give or take an inch) Undertaker

Think BigShow has about 3-4inches on Andre at his peak height.
-
Almost everybody that was around both has said Andre was larger than Big Show. I mean, what do the guys in the business even know anyway


-
Given the fact that the wrestling business is well known for lying about the heights and weights of their wrestlers... I'd go on to say that you should take everything they say with a pinch of salt. You know Undertaker isn't actually a zombie too eh?
-
First off it’s a “grain of salt”, and 2nd are you insinuating that he’s not dead either?
-
First off, I'm British, it's "pinch of salt" here. Who Undertaker? Nah he's not dead! He's basically a Zombie who shows up to wrestle then goes home with his hot wife.

So Mark Meltzer is Claiming Andre wasn’t close to 7’ tall? Look at him next to Wilt, who was over 7’ tall. Meltzers just an arrogant know it all smuck.pic.twitter.com/U3RWUDAgip
-
While Wilt is standing behind him, he still looks to be about 3 inches taller than Andre.
-
Standing behind him? Look at the placement of their feet. What’s Wilt, a millimeter behind him, lol. He was listed at 7’1. Andre is 6’11-7’0 depending on the shoes he wore for sure. Defiantly not close to 6’5 like meltzer was insinuating l.
-
I'd say Andre was 6'10 tops.
-
Unfortunately nobody actually knows. He was a legit giant who kept growing as he never had the surgery to stop it.
@WWE listed him at 7’4. I have a hard time believing they added 6’ plus to his height.

Aren't the only legit 7 foot wrestlers are the Undertaker, Kevin Nash, Big Cass, the Big Show, the Great Khali, and Matt Morgan?
-
Here's Taker next to a 6'10" Kevin Love. https://heightboard.com/photos/undertakerheight.jpg …

Did his height shrink over the years? I know that he wasn't 6'10, but somewhere in the 6'8 region. Here, he looks 6'5

Hogan was 6'7 though and at WM3, Andre looked like he towered over him by almost half a foot?
-
Probably closer to 6'4" and Andre usually had lifts in his boots
-
Not even. I took a pic with him years ago. I was about 6’1 at the time and he wasn’t much taller.
-
I could buy 6'4" at his prime and him losing an inch or two now. His knees and his back are pretty legendarily screwed. Old people shrink.
-
Good point. This was in 2001 I believe, so that would make sense.
