"It's like going back to school. You know, autumn! Time for Harry Potter."
~ Robbie Coltrane
Impressive actor and comedian, Robbie Coltrane is known for his powerful performances in movies and on stage, though he is perhaps best recognized for playing the role of Rubeus Hagrid in the Harry Potter film series.
Robbie Coltrane is a big man, though don't expect him to be as big as Hagrid. Few humans have been as tall as Hagrid -- and none has been so wide.
If a man is truly as big as Hagrid, he must weigh at least 1500 lb (680 kg). By the way, the official height of Hagrid is 8-feet-6 inches or 2.59 meters -- as tall as an average elephant.
Mr. Coltrane in comparison is very average -- though he is proportionally as wide as Hagrid in real life -- his weight was around 343 lb (156 kg) at the peak.
Anyway, Robbie Coltrane's height is listed as 6-feet-1 inch on many respectable websites on the internet, which doesn't surprise us in the slightest -- as he looked only a couple inches shorter than the 6-feet-4 inches tall Liam Neeson in the 1983 movie Skrull.
Though now in his seventies, Robbie could be expected to lose some height due to age.
The height of Robbie Coltrane is
6'¼" or 186 cm
Height in prime was 6'1¼"
