John Holmes

Cute but John Holmes told both of his wives he was 10 inches so at most he is that size. Knowing how men lie i will say he was probably less than 10 inches

When it comes to word of mouth on cock size, you really can't trust anyone, especially if it comes from John himself :biggrin1: . I think studies like the one posted are our only way of really knowing now.

Again cute but I think Holmes knew his dick size better than anybody and he told both of his wives he was 10 so there is no way he was over that. As i said he was probably less than 10 inches. Maybe 9 or so.
 
The story of Holmes claiming to be 10 inches comes from his first wife Sharon, it wasn't something John himself said in an interview or something. He was in the bathroom measuring himself right before his wife came home and when she say him in there, he told her that it was amazing how his dick would go from 5 inches all the way to 10. I don't remember if his second wife Laurie had anything to say about his size.

Don't get me wrong, I personally believe Holmes was around the 10 inch area at most too. But when it comes to word of mouth, I typically toss it out the window. John's long time agent Bill Amerson boldly claims that Holmes was 13 inches, John himself claimed he was the size of "two and a half six inch rulers" (15in), and all of those crazy porn adverts had numbers all over the place. We're better off trusting that site than what anyone had to say.
 
That page reminds me of those videos that purport to prove that no airliners hit the World Trade Center. The guy's analyses look completely hokey to me.
 
In the brief chapter devoted to John Holmes in "The Penis Book" they estimated him at almost 11" long and 7" in circumference.
Did they do a similar "investigation" like this?

I get that feeling a lot too, but at the same time, I can't think of any ways to disprove it. Actually one thing I thought of was that Ginger Lynn's wrist in that screenshot might not be showing it's full width, which would make the 2 inch dimension line longer... maybe shortening the estimated size of John down to 9 to 10 inches.

John Holmes has always been a hero for me... great films and great pics... shame it all went wrong in the end...
otherwise a true star dont think anyone out now could beat him... ok so he is not the best looking guy around but there is something about him thaty is perfect, other then the large member.

They claim that he "only" measured 8.6"x6.5".
I suppose it can't be far off the truth, I was watching some videos of him and he always looked biggest when he had a floppy erection. Fully erect, he didn't look anywhere near as big as Mandingo. Maybe it was closer to Jack Napier's size.
 
Well nice thread

John Holmes first gf/wife said that he measured it in the bathroom and told her it went from 5 to 10 inches

So much hype with Big Dicks .... in porn he went from 12 to like 15 inches? So who knows really unless you have a REAL 10 inch dick to compare with?

John Holmes was 6'2"

You are right how a dick looks bigger on a short guy (under 5'9")

Jonah Falcon is only 5'8" or 5'9" (and MAYBE he is a REAL 9-10")

Mandingo is 5'7" and he must have a 9"+

Ron Jeremy is 5'6" and his dick is nowhere near as long as Holmes.

Interesting to see Quercusone is 6 ft and he has a 9" or so

Visualiser.net is alright. They have some close measurements on there. However it also states that Ron Jeremy was longer than Holmes and I will NEVER believe that!

Not too many guys even have a REAL 8"++ dick so if you ever met someone who had a 9-10"+ dick I am sure that he would compare quite well with Wadd and Mandingo.

So I say John Holmes must have been a REAL MEASURED 9-10 inches long and about 7"+ around

I was the best of friends with the late Gary Griffin before his passing in 1996. Through Gary I met a man who was on set with the late John Holmes at many of his porn shootings. A great deal of the legend of JH was related to many factors. He was to most a rather unattractive man in most respects. He had a totally forgetable body and few other characteristics that made him memorable in any way. What that did accomplish was to focus all of the viewers attention on his penis which was way above average. The number that the fellow mentioned who was there and knew him was in the area of 9 inches in length.

Often porn stars are hand picked and then an illusion created by camera angles and other photo trickery. The late Scott O'Hara looked like he was absolutely mammoth in size. What was left out was that Scott was only 5'2" tall and never weighed more than 110 pounds in his life. This made the 8.5 inch penis look to be absolutely monstrous. The story of how this is all done was written down in a gay mag a zillion years ago by Scott before he passed away, in a magazine interview.

Jeff Stryker/Charles Peyton is another one who was a complete optical illusion based on camera angles and other photo tricks. When he was first becoming a "hit" in the business he walked in to a bookstore in West Hollywood and came into a conversation with the clerk who evidently we both knew in common. I was introduced to him by the clerk. I am about 5'9 inches tall. I was looking across the top of his head at that time.

Another one who knew that same clerk was an 80's porn kid named "Lance" and I encountered him there many times. He was made to look larger in height than he was by careful usage of props and camera angles. I would guess that "Lance" was no more than 5'5" tall and with great proportion that again made his penis look larger than it in fact was.

Remember that successful porn creates an illusion that gets you off. The creation of that illusion is to give your mind someting with which to make comparisons so that your mind fills in what the camera cannot.

It is really kind of neat how well all of this is thought out. It is something that few think about. Most just watch and enjoy.

VERY INTERESTING! Who knew?? Thanks Ken!
