Dan Blocker's Height

6ft 3 (190.5 cm)

American actor best remembered for playing Eric 'Hoss' Cartwright on the tv series Bonanza. As far back as an edition of a 1959 Lima News, he was being described this height: "The six-foot-four, 275-pounder"

In 1967 Slim Pickens said he "had to wear lifts....I'm 6 feet 3 but alongside Dan Blocker I guess they thought I looked like Mickey Rooney".

I guess I just grew faster than most boys. At 17, I stopped shooting up. By then I was six-foot-four. It was only when I entered college that I was able to put my size to work. Before then, being large had seemed like a nightmare to me. I never had a really normal childhood because of it. I was so sensitive about my size that I felt like a freak.
