    Any figures for the true height of Sir William Wallace?

    Question #84614. Asked by deadlydalton. (Aug 16 07 4:37 PM)

    		Without a body...I doubt we'll ever know. However, here is one line of reasoning for 6'7".

    "It is believed that Wallace had a legendary 5 foot long sword. The sword that is believed to be his is kept in The New National Wallace Monument in Stirling. This sword is so long and heavy it is obvious that the man that used it had to be both of great physical stature and over six feet six inches tall. Thus it is believed that William Wallace was six feet seven inches tall."
