"I feel like Shakespeare is so epic, in a way that sci-fi genre stuff is epic, it transcends the mundane, and it takes you to this place of real passion and real beauty."
~ David Harbour
American actor, David Harbour is known for his work in movies such as Brokeback Mountain, Quantum of Solace, End of Watch, The Equalizer, and Suicide Squad, and also the Netflix science fiction drama series Stranger Things.
David Harbour towered over everyone in Stranger Things. He is a tall, broad-shouldered, heavy, and an intimidating looking man who would make the previous Hellboy -- Ron Perlman look small if they stood side by side.
In a Wired QA video David Harbour mentions his height:
"People hate the metric system that's what learning from the internet is like, please enough with the meters thing, I'm six foot three-six like three and a half, oh man send up a flare I'll come running."
David Harbour is tall but after comparing his height to people like Sebastian Stan (5'11½"), The Rock (6'2½"), Chris Hemsworth (6'3"), we think six feet three and a half is a bit too much even for someone like him.
David looked very similar in height to The Rock, who is somewhere between 6'2" to 6'3" -- so there is that as well.
As we mentioned David is big -- his weight is around 240 to 250 lb (110 to 112 kg), which surely classifies him as a heavyweight actor (no pun intended).
The height of David Harbour is
6'2¾" or 190 cm
