Believe it or not, but Brad Pitt weighed around 150-160 lbs (68-72 Kg) in the movie "Fight Club". Pitt is stated to be between 5 feet 11 inches and 5 feet 10.5 inches tall (about 1.80 cm). When you give that in a BMI calculator you get a BMI from 21 to 22. You may ask yourself now, why he looked so bulked up/huge in "Fight Club". You have to understand that a BMI doesn't include the body fat percentage of every men's body. Pitt's body fat was around 8% during the making of "Fight Club".
