In the scene when Swayze is walking on the beach with Keanu Reeves at night, Swayze is 4, maybe 4. Keanu is 6'1" by the way. Then in another scene when they're walking in the parking lot Swayze looks just inches shorter, although he seemed to have a slight ground advantage. He can give a short impression like in Road House, but he can also look very average and sometimes tall in height enhancing shoes. That fits with him being in the , range. I actually thought he was for years because of Road House.
When he did not work as much, he got listed at My guess is between and Here he is looking about 5 inches taller than Barbara Walters who is slouching. Click Here Certainly if Walters stood straight then Swayze would have no more than 4 inches on her. Don't forget that she's So Swayze is surprisingly looking about 5'8" there. I don't think he's less than 5'9" although 5'10" is possible because he can pass for 6 feet with the right shoes.
I wish him all the best though. It must be terrible to be diagnosed with the disease he was but he's surpisingly still alive and doing well a year later. Sometimes people look taller then others some days Click Here Swayze's posture isn't too good but he's obviously shorter. Patrick could be but nothing over that although he can look 6 feet in certain pictures.
Then again he also often wears cowboy boots and thick footwear that look like elevator shoes at times. He also looks quite a bit and seems short in movies.
Patrick looks only 2 inches shorter than Arnie. He must have had some big shoes on. Man those movies kick butt! He looked again in Black house. In Road House they joked about his height throughout the movie.
Short has a little posture advantage although he isn't standing that straight either. I don't see where the stuff comes from for Swayze. I've never seen a guy look as short as he does. I've seen some of Swayze's movies, and although he may be 5'10" with tall shoes, he's 5'9" in real life. So, 5'9" it is. Frank2 was probably right on this one. From the San Antonio Express-News Swayze may be shorter than expected he looks to be around 5-foot-8 but every inch is perfectly toned and proportioned.
Maybe taller than 5 foot 8 but 5'9" max in my opinion since he was shorter than 5'10" Meat Loaf and 5'10" Billy Bob Thornton. I don't think Patrick is anything over 5'9". Short and unusually clean.
Looks 5'9" max to me, it wouldn't surprise me if he was 5'8" though. Of course Ben was nearly 60 at the time so he could have lost some height too. They always joke about Patrick's height in Roadhouse, everyone says "I thought'd you'd be bigger" Sam Elliott refers to him as a "skinny, little runt". He doesn't seem above 5'9". I've never seen a 5'10" man look as short as him so I can't see him any taller than 5'9". His diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is sad, hope his treatment is going well.
Enjoyed his performance in the sci-fi film Donnie Darko. When I grow my hair long it looks just like Swayze's old mullet :. In the movie "Ghost", he looked roughly 3. With Farley at 5'8 that would put Swayze at around 5' I doubt he's 5'8 as some people have him at.
I'd say 5. But, 5'10' is too high. Swayze is no more than 5'8" or 5'9". Watch Road House some time. The world would be a much better place if everybody was blind. Too bad he's got such an illness. I am 6' tall on the dot, and the top of his head comes to my forehead Never met him, but I've heard from several people that he's a nice guy. Old photo of the outsiders shows P.
As I don't keep bricks in the house I can't accurately state how much that adds, but he is just over Matt Dillon's head. BTW wasn't that the running joke in Roadhouse for his character, "I thought you would be Marcelo C.
Swayze on the screen, he doesn. I'd say he is 5' Every time he looks significantly shorter than someone, that someone turns out to be very tall i. James Read in North and South. I doubt he presented himself as taller than he is, ballet dancers aren't sought for their height anyway. In Dirty Dancing he looks taller because he has ballroom-friendly Cuban heels.
Yet even without them, he's significantly taller than the average-height leading ladies he was with, and he is also significantly taller than Cruise and Estevez, as pointed out. Also, he's not much shorter than Keanu in PB. If you haven't seen him in person, it is impossible to say with any accuracy how tall a person is. He does look small in films, so its reasonable to assume that he's not that tall in person.
The big screen or small screen actually usually makes people appear bigger than they are. I wonder if he used lifts or a box in his scenes with Sam Elliott? However, at the end of the video, we see that his shoes have pretty big heels on them, while Farley's shoes look pretty flat.
If you haven't seen him in person it's hard to tell. I was a security guard at a raceway and he and other celebities walk by my door. I'm 6'2" and I can tell you he's no 5'10" And that's pushing it. You have to see it to believe it. Unfortuanately, it's been a few years so I don't remember which one. Personally, he's always looked average to me. If I go to Germany or France I don't see a big difference in average height.. How old is Patrick by the way?
Maybe in his younger years he was average. She says maybe 5'7" or 5'8" without shoes or the bouffant Hey, Pacino, Cruise, Newman amd many others lacked physical stature and they all seemed to do all right. I know what you're saying now Swayze is no Pacino, Cruise or Paul Newman and you'd be right on the money, honey! Patrick looked well over 6 feet in Dirty Dancing The only place on earth where that is average is the Netherlands. Either he wears lifts, or something very strange is going on.
So grows tall hair and wears the biggest footwear? Still I would say the shortest he looked in was Ghost and still looked an easy 5'10!
Im taking Dmeyer's word for it though! He thought 5'10 is pushing it! I also think Frank2 saw him under 5'10? It is only when he gets next to others that his true height is revealed as He must be well proportioned exceptions to the cranium possibly. Maybe Swayze was told by fans and others that he looks 6'0? I never really tried to push the issuse of him being A barefoot 6'0 , but I think he can Give that Impression on film!
He does have big hair , and big footwear Maybe he is just those guys who think there bigger then what they really are?
Well , this is not a fact yet because I did not see it! Something that is a fact though is that I read an Article with Marky Mark saying 5'7. The Outsiders group picture shows that. Do you think its too much for him to be saying? Could he be more a strong 5'10er Well , If he only looks 5'10 in photos then I guess it would be closer to his true height!
Rob , I was message board searching the other day and I over-read that Swayze said in a Bio that he was pretty much " Bang On 6 Feet "! I don't know how true that is because I did not see it myself Maybe she is wearing high heels, I don't see her feet area, and I think it is strange that she appears taller than him by a little bit because I thought in movies especially action movies like this when the Swayzor is a hero they will make the man look at least as tall as his woman friend.
