I believe he was never 6 2 but about 6 1 and down to about 6 0 now I don t really get the whole controversy though especially thinking he s about 5 10 or whatever He s obviously got a huge body and head which could make him appear shorter but the thing is there s nothing special or amazing about being 6 0 or over It s pretty much the norm in Europe Heck I m half asian and still 6 1 While many actors do fudge an inch or two and Arnold may have fudged 1 it s rare that they ll fudge more than 2 Otherwise they ll be exposed too easily
