Trivia

He is the tallest of six brothers, all over 6' 5".

He died in 1991 due to HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. He went public with his illness with the full support of his wife.

His father Charles Hall was 6' 6" and his mother Sylvia Hall was 6' 2".

This giant's face was rarely seen in his films, as he usually played monsters and semi-human creatures that required him to wear mounds of make-up, so few people know that he was a handsome and muscular man.

The character of the Predator in
Predator went through many development stages, including one version that was set up for
Jean-Claude Van Damme to play a martial-arts fighting Predator, and finally decided on the crab-like humanoid monster seen in the film. The producers realized much of their human cast were bodybuilders over 6 feet tall (and Van Damme was clearly smaller) and thus they cast the enormous Hall so that the Predator could realistically physically dominate the film's human characters.

Kevin Peter Hall can be seen in Predator 1 without costume. He is the helicopter pilot at the end of the film.

He was in a major car accident in Los Angeles. During surgery for his critical wounds, he received a contaminated blood transfusion. He died shortly thereafter of the AIDS virus.
