Irwin Keyes, at an imposing 5ft 11 (180.3 cm), brought a commanding physical presence to his roles as a character actor and comedian. His height perfectly suited his affable yet large-screen persona, most notably in the recurring role of Hugo on The Jeffersons. Keyes leveraged his stature in horror films like House of 1000 Corpses and Wrestlemaniac, as well as action titles such as Exterminator and Oblivion (1994), enhancing his memorable tough-guy characters.
