I recently discovered there seems to be much controversy over the height of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Billed at 6'2", but many pundits reckon 5 ten is closer to the truth.

So once again, the scholars and philosophers of CycleChat have to step in to settle the debate.

I've often thought he's more 5'10 when in a doorway ect
Plus his acting buddies are often smaller to make him look taller.

I guess Tom Cruise has lent him his shoes

Arnold Schwarzenegger is four foot nine... all these film stars are little pixies!

I think male screen actors are generally on the shorter side because they're easier to frame alongside female actors.

.....that Madame Tussauds thing, they have 'em over this way, and they always have a wax 'star' at the door to draw you in. One of them was Tom Cruise, who is said to be 5'7", which is my height, but the dummy......sorry, I mean Tom, towered above me, so guess they were being kind or something. Anways, this is me with.......well, can you guess?

I'm the handsome devil on the left by the way.

I used to spend a lot of time on that site looking up celebrities. Great fun. Some actors are a lot shorter than you think. I remember Barry Norman, who was around 6ft but looked shorter, saying he found film stars were often short with large heads - something about that combo made them very photogenic.

A year or two ago I watched a programme where Arnold was onstage next to Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis turns to Arnold and says, 'wow, I thought you were a lot taller,' or words to that effect.

To which Arnold replied, 'I've not got my heels on.'

There was an awkward silence for a few seconds afterwards where it was obvious that Lewis was wishing that he'd kept his mouth shut.
