I was reading IMDB's info on behind the scenes of Predator and read this:"The studio picked Boss Studio for the first design of the Predator to save money. Their Predator was more arthropod/insect-like in appearance, and according to Arnold Schwarzenegger it looked like someone in a lizard suit with the head of a duck. However, the suit was not felt to be scary enough, and initial performer Jean-Claude Van Damme couldn't properly move in it. On Schwarzenegger's suggestion, Stan Winston was brought in to redesign the creature for 1.5 million dollars (twice what Boss Studio had charged). This meant that the final fight scene had to be re-shot. The new Predator was 8-1/2 feet tall, but the re-cast Kevin Peter Hall was 7'2". The costume was heavy and off-balance, and Hall couldn't see with the mask on. Because of that, during the fight scene with Dutch, he actually did hit Schwarzenegger once." Is this accurate? Is the original Predator actually 8 1/2 feet tall or is this a typo? I know they can get that big, just wondering if Jungle Hunter was?
