Bigshow is slouching BIGTIME in that photo and the Khali photo has already been proven as a forgery in the past.Originally Posted by ShaqAttack3234
Big Show was never taller than Shaq. You don't go from taller to atleast an inch and a half shorter by age 37.
Khali isn't any taller than Shaq either.
Pro wrestlers are WELL KNOWN for losing height over the years.
Hulk Hogan was a LEGIT 6'7" in his AWA days and now he's no taller than 6'4 1/2" because of back surgeries, aging, and because of the spine compression that all Pro Wrestlers have because of throwing around 300lbs men for 300 days a year for decades.
Bigshow was listed @ 7'1" by Wichita State at the same time Shaq was listed @ 7'0" by LSU.

Bigshow also had brain surgery later to remove a tumor that made him keep growing taller and taller and he was 7'1" at 19 and STILL GROWING. His posture has also gotten much worse over time so in his prime Bigshow was certainly OVER 7'1". He was probably at least 7'2" at his peak but billed @ 7'4".

Andre the Giant was only 7 or 7,1" during his prime, but he shrunk down to 6,10" in his later years. I remember Andre and Wilt in several pics together along side with Arnold... Originally Posted by giantgonzolez

Re: Bigshow vs Shaq height comparison
I just don't believe what people say anymore about all pro wrestlers being 6 or 8 inches shorter than they are claimed to be.
DDP was listed @ 6'5" in WCW, and in this photo, he looks taller than that.
Hulk Hogan was listed @ 6'7" at that time, but was probably about 6'6".
In his prime in the AWA days, Hogan may have been easily 6'7" or even 6'8".
