My religious philosophy is kindness. Try to be kind. That's something worth achieving.
~ Pierce Brosnan
Famous Irish actor, Pierce Brosnan has appeared in many movies but perhaps he will always be known for playing secret agent James Bond in the Bond film series – “GoldenEye”, “Tomorrow Never Dies”, “The World Is Not Enough”, and “Die Another Day”.
About Pierce Brosnan's Real Height
Pierce Brosnan is tall and has a suitable height for being Bond.
Though Pierce's height is something of a mystery to the internet (not to us). A few years ago, most websites used to list his height as 5 feet 6 inches or something like that.
Which is just ridiculous. Pierce won’t stoop so low under any circumstance!
Then Pierce suddenly seemed to have a massive growth spurt and shot up to 6 feet. Maybe Pierce still has some residual growth left and will reach up to 6 feet 1½ inches eventually – because that’s how tall Pierce was in his prime.
Pierce once mentioned his height as 6 feet 2 inches. We took a really good look at a young Pierce and now think that he looked in that range – even if it is the southern side.
Though now close to his 70s, Pierce looks shorter than he used to do. Most people don’t lose height in their 70s – but the taller and bulkier do so faster than the shorter ones.
By the way, Pierce's son Dylan is like 6 feet 5 inches tall – don’t ask us how that happened!
