"I hear your chants. I hear your catcalls. And yes it's true. I'm obsessed with other men's balls. WORD!"
~ Kurt Angle
American Olympic wrestler and pro wrestler, Kurt Angle needs no introduction - therefore, we will not be giving him one and jump straight to the point.
WWE used to list Mr. Angle at 6'2" which is just plain laughable. Kurt Angle was nowhere near that mark, hell, he wasn't even near 6", what can we say? He looked half a feet shorter than The Rock who was 6'3" at the time (The Rock's height is another mystery which will be solved pretty soon enough - down to millimeters).
Kurt Angle was if anything closer in height and body structure to Chris Jericho and Chris Benoit - both of whom were around at their peak 5'9.5". By the way, Kurt Angle's real weight is around 230 lb (105 kg).
The real height of Kurt Angle is
5'9.5" or 176.5 cm
Peak height was 5'10"
