One could determine the approximate weight of Goliath, from Robert Pershing Wadlow, who was about 2.7 meters tall and weighed 220 kg. From 1 Samuel 17:4 we learn that Goliath was six cupids and a span, meaning the two men were near the same height with Goliath. Considering a Cupid to be 0.38 - 0.46 m and a Span to be about 0.23 m

== == The Bible gives no data on which to reliably calculate the weight of Goliath. It does give us his height, but not his stature in terms of him being thin or a little more heavily built. Certainly his weight would have exceeded the tallest known NBL player.

One could use Robert Pershing Wadlow as an example as he was about the same height as Goliath. Robert weighed 220kg. Goliath was probably more fit than Robert as a warrior, therefore he would have weighed slightly more than Robert.

Goliath the Gittite was a legendary giant who fought on the side of the Philistines, who occupied the rich coastal plains of Palestine, from Egypt to about a far north as modern Tel Aviv. Two conflicting stories in the Bible are evidence that Goliath was a 'bogy-man' of legend, rather than a real person, in which case any estimate of his size and weight would be meaningless. 1 Samuel chapter 30 reports that the future king, David, killed Goliath. But 2 Samuel 21:19 says that Elhanan killed the same Goliath.
Christians tend to assume that Goliath must have been about twice the height of a normal human, whereas Jews and Muslims are more likely to imagine him as being far larger, but if Goliath was just a myth, it is not really possible to say how heavy he was.

Who was Goliath?

Goliath was a nine foot Trained Warrior like Conan from the army of the phillistines. The Philistines challenged Israel to a one on one battle, so as to spare many soldier's lives. His challenge was accepted by an unarmed boy with a divine acurate sling shot. Goliath had super Human strenght and could carry all his armor like it was nothing. His sword was a sharp sledge hammer that could slice through your armor. If you saw Goliath, you didn't stick around to see what he would do. If you saw Goliath, you ran and hoped he doesent feel like killing anyone that day. If you saw Goliath, you are very far away but he still looks pretty big. Goliath was meant by God to be a very known mighty warrior. The Death of Goliath made David famous. That sling shot was his viral moment.

Had Goliath ever fought before he fought David?

A:1 Samuel 17:4 calls Goliath a champion of the Philistines, suggesting that he was a great warrior who had indeed fought before. On the other hand, serious historians do not regard the story of David and Goliath as based on fact. Even Chronicles, in recounting the story of David, entirely omits the story of David and Goliath, suggesting that the Chronicler did not really believe the story. Historically, the giant Goliath had never fought before and did not fight David.
