Kevin Peter Hall, at an exact 7ft 2 (218.4 cm), was an American actor whose towering height defined his career playing monstrous and giant characters.
His immense stature made him ideal for the fearsome Predator in Predator (1987) and its sequel, where he dwarfed Arnold Schwarzenegger at 6ft 2, amplifying the hero's triumph. Hall also embodied the gentle giant Bigfoot Harry in the TV series Harry and the Hendersons, leveraging his 7ft 2 frame for memorable performances.
Frequently cast as monsters, Hall viewed his height as a key asset: 'My size has been an asset. Several roles have come my way because of my height... it makes [the hero] a much bigger protagonist when he comes out on top.'
