He weighs 125ibs (56.7kg).

Personality Description Likes: Being with his friends + Sleeping in the vacant lot when his folks are arguing Dislikes: Being jumped + His abusive family Personality: Johnny Cade is a vulnerable sixteen-year-old greaser in a group defined by toughness and a sense of invincibility. He comes from an abusive home, and he takes to the greasers because they are his only reliable family. He had grown up in a violent, abusive home with parents that did not care about him. He also lives in a violent city where Socs and Greasers were in constant conflict. Johnny had been jumped and beaten so badly by a group of Socs that he has become jumpy and fearful. He is ''afraid of his own shadow.'' Even so, he often sleeps in the vacant lot where he was jumped because it feels safer than going home. Johnny is very quiet, not getting in the way of the gang very often. This is a result of constantly being neglected and verbally abused by his mother and beaten by his alcoholic father. He is able to hold his own at a rumble, but distances himself from the running and common conflict of being a greaser as often as he can manage, because of the stigma that follows the greasers. He was nearly killed by a group of Socs one night when he was jumped while walking alone. Since that day the gang always made sure that they kept an eye on Johnny, knowing that they would be less vulnerable if they were at least in a group of two. Johnny was jumped by Socs and was severely injured. He received a temple-to-cheek long gash scar on his left cheek, which was caused by the large rings worn by one of the Socs who jumped him. He had the scar for the rest of his life. After the attack, he became extremely jumpy and fearful, and started carrying a switchblade. Despite his need to be taken care of and his crippling fear, Johnny can be depended on to do what is needed to take care of his friends in a rumble. Johnny admires Dallas, or ''Dally,'' because he had grown up in the same type of environment but never seemed to be afraid of anything. Johnny is sensitive and Dally is hard. Johnny feels pretty hopeless that he is on the verge of committing suicide. He doesn't think he can take the misery of his life any longer. He carries in his back pocket a six-inch switchblade which he'd use if he ever got jumped again.
