Damn u short as

Ma Huetang- 5'4.5
Azim Premji- 5'1
Ralph Lauren- 5'6

Tommy Hilfiger-5'6
Robert Kiyosaki- 5'7
Narayanmoorthy- 5'3

Who said shorter man automatically earn less?
Wow 😮 is Robert kiyosaki 5,7 🙉, these is to much..
@Amirul Mukminin that's just bullshit.
It's not because they're short, it's because many guys and men are shorter (under 5'9) in this world.
+ Jeff Bezos 5’7 the richest of them
einstein 5'7''
@@hhhbgg982 now adani the richest 5'6'' thank god i am 2.5 inches taller than him
God of cricket Sachin tendulakar
You did a great thing, here. Helped me son a lot. Thank you very much.
You have to take the time frame in consideration such as 5'7 was considered average height 25 years ago. These days I hear 5'10 men thinking they are short because they are being rejected by women because they were not tall enough.
I'd put Tupac Shakur on top of the list.5'7 real height other claims are fake; considered short for USA and also short for a black guy. Still a remarkable genuine person who achieved so many things in life at only 25 years old.
I asked Siri and she said he’s 5’9 lol
Ronnie James Dio was only 5 3 and is widely considered one of the best heavy metal vocalists of all time.
*Michael Bloomberg, Barry Sanders, Ross Perot, Booker T. Washington, James Cagney...*
Sammy Davis Jr.
5"8 is not short neither is 5"7
Based on.. what statistic?
lol wut
At 5'7 when I stand next to a guy who's even a little above average he's about half a foot taller than me. 5'8-5'9 is where you start to enter the normal range.
Jon Kelly it is
Both short
It depends how big your or wide your bone frame is, as your shoulders. Some guys have short legs and look 5' 5 but are really 5 ' 7 or 8 because their heads are big. From distance their short bodies look smaller than what their height really is. From far distance they might look 5 ' 5" but true up close height is 5' 8" because extra large head hahaha it ok. respect.
5'8 isn't that short
SEETHING

Lol what are NBA Players then

5'3 at 16 here, it's accurate thou' can't stand people at 5'10 complaining about lacking these 2 inches lol
Wrong
Consider suicide if you are below 5'9 which is very short.
5'10-short.
5'11-kinda short, absolute minimum in europe.
6'0-average height
6'1-possibly average height in some countries
6'2-slightly above average
6'3-slightly tall
6'4-tall
6'5-ideal human male height
6'6 and over is very tall but it will be average height in next 20 years.
How is 5'8" short?
Because it's below average height (in the U.S. at least).
It's below average by one inch. I don't think one inch below average makes someone short at all.
+Jin Hikari fair enough...what do you think is short?
It depends where a person lives but i think about 5'6" or under is short for a guy
Here in germany even 6 Feet is short as Fuck bro
Great video, sir!
WOLVERINE - 5' 3" !
Yeah but he also have super awesome claws and regeneration
You forgot to add your self to this list Brock!
Great video. But disappointed that you left out the most badass person to have ever existed "Simo Häyhä." Most confirmed kills in battle, under the craziest circumstances, standing at 5'3.
I'm 5'5" & Indian Average Male Height is also 5'5" but Few people said that I'm short or average based on their intentions, mood and own insecurities... & my reply to them like "You're Right Dude, in my case, Being A Short Guy is ok but Short Status Never Ever Acceptable".
Yes exactly
Yeah bro i know I am also 165 cm and from India..
Im also 5'5" and from Kerala which is one the tallest states in India.Everywhere I go usually I am the shortest. Here 175+ cm height is the normal.
You are very cool. Stick with other guys your height and get rriicchh....

Height does not define a Person!!!
🙌🏼
Joseph007 , well said
Agree 200 %
The culture tries to. Associate with guys your size. Then get super rich. 😊
Love it! What a list..
Henry Winkler is more like 5'5 or 5'4. I stood next to him at a Comic Con and we were the same hight
You can add "Jack Ma"(approx 4"11'-5".0') the richest man of china & he rank 18th position in Bloomberg billionaires Index & world's 20th most powerful person by Forbes list.
Stephen hawking 5'6"
Nick vujicic 3'3"
Warwick Davis, Conor McGregor, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Danny Garcia , Wilfredo Gomez, Eminem , Usher , Miguel Cotto, Julio Cesar Chavez, Roberto Duran.
There was a 4' 10" boxer from Soweto who won FOUR professional boxing championships and never fought anybody his height or lower. Sorry, I've forgotten his name.
Great video, Ross Perot should be in this list too, he’s the Texas billionaire that ran for the US presidency in the 90’s. Mr. Perot is 5’5.
+irving estevez oh I remember Perot. Didn't realize he was 5'5" though. Nice addition!
Perot's height may be one reason why he got so few votes compared to Bush and Clinton. Few politicians and C.E.O.'s are short. People in general have an inherent bias against "short" as evidenced by promotions, elections, etc. There seems to be a "glass ceiling" for short people.
Fear not short kings, I know a bunch of short girls and guys who absolutely love people close to their height, they dont feel intimidated and feel more comforted. Use your height to your advantage
when you list 5'7" people there I feel even worse :)
Please let Prince be on the list. He was 5'2 and has every woman you could dream of.
Rey Parker prince was maybe 5’1” in his prime
Matt Fraser... fittest person on earth is 5'7
Great video
Awesome video, but also Ringo Starr.
Wow wow, since when is being 5,8 short🙉, interesting thanks for the video. I am 5,6 and I feel like a God after watching this.😎
I feel alive again 💪. Thanks buddy, it’s a like plus you got yourself a sub!💪
Napoleon is an interesting one. In the UK, he's not really thought of as a great leader who conquered Europe as Wellington eventually defeated him at the Battle of Waterloo, which is obviously remembered as a great British success. Napoleon probably gets a bad press over here because of that but in France they love him, which I never really understood until I spent a bit of time there and did a bit more research!
really love it...
Naim Suleymanoglu (4 ft 10 inches): Turkish weightlifter, 3 times olympic gold medalist and 7 times World Weightlifting Champion, earning the endearing nickname of "Pocket Hercules".
Halil Mutlu (4 ft 11 inches): Another Turkish weightlifter, his weightlifting career includes five World championships, nine European championships and more than 20 world records.
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (5 ft 9 inches): Army General of Ottoman Empire with a successful career, who later founded the Republic of Turkey from its ashes.
Horatio Nelson (5 ft 4 inches): An absolte mad lad of a man, a succesful British Navy Admiral who defeated the French wherever he saw them.
Georgy Zhukov (5 ft 4 inches): Succesful general of the Red Army, he commanded the 1st Belorussian Front; he took part in the Vistula-Oder Offensive, and the Battle of Berlin, which resulted in the defeat of Nazi Germany, and the end of the second world war in Europe.
Vladimir Putin 5'6
He's ruling Russia like a king
no way tom cruise is 5 7, he is shorter
James Dean is missing from here. he was 5``7 . He was the first person to receive a posthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Actor and remains the only person to have two such nominations posthumously. he also is a cultural and style icon for only 3 movies... rebel without a cause, giant and east of eden. we wouldnt have blue jeans or tee shirts without James Dean. he is the greatest actor of all time
In my point of view Zac Efron and Daniel Bryan also appropriate for this list.
Daniel is like 5'9
not short
what about Tenshin Nasukawa
wow'...genghis khaan...was just 5'1"??! 😨
Napoleon was actually taller than the average men in France at that time.....
Lee Wang Average french man was 5'5 napoleon was 5'6. British propaganda was so good some people still believe to this day napoleon was a shorty.
@@eminemishh he really was …
All his soldiers were way taller than him !! He was so short in his army ! This is a fact not a joke
He definitely was a short man
Hopefully one day I'll make it on such a list!!!
5'8 guy speaking...
5'8 is the safezone . Its a slaughterhouse down here at 5'5 in the dating scene.
I got measured at employee health for a new job the other day and I am 5’7 1/4 barefoot. I always thought I was 5’8 😬. If I buy this inversion table it should stretch me out to 5’8
You forgot Danny Trejo...he is only 5'5 but looks so terrifying 😳
Mark Zuckerberg is 5 ft 6, surprised you only mentioned him in a description on your website.
He mentioned him with jesse eisenberg
Guys pls don’t care about your own height, I just wanna let you know one thing:
“MONEY TALKS”
Size doesn’t matter, bank account matters.
Looks, money, status, personality and height ALL matter.
Horace Hogsnort true 😂🤙🏻
Shallow, poor misguided souls.
I agree
Frank Sinatra, Sean Penn, James McAvoy, Tim Roth, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo... I can go on...
You're missing Danny Trejo 5'6!
"Who would you like to add to the list?" ME
I am 5,4 and I am never regret that I am happy successful attractive to women that's exactly I want

+velho da montanha "lmfao" I don't get what's funny
ＡＴ 7 you can only see his hair when he goes to the bar balcony to ask a beer
velho da montanha but you went to this video for a reason right? because you're a short man and want to feel better about yourself. Yet here you are trying to put others down in a similar position. You're such a child
+velho da montanha lol.... not that much 😜
Feel better about being 5’3”
you missed Pablo escobar
Diego Galo, not really a guy to look up to, but I see where you’re coming from.
And rich I guess
in other words a short man has to be very rich, famous, or achieve greatness to be considered adequate.
So is any other person.
@@nobledmarlin17 nope some people have that regardless. even if a short or average height man achieves success he's still seen as meek.
@@themadtitan8408 not really no, I believe that most tall people achieve more because shorter guys are just downplaying themselves. In actuality and you probably wouldn't believe me, a short man who is successful will be seen as more of a respectable man than another taller person, by mere fact of him being at a disadvantage and still achieving.
@@nobledmarlin17 i hear what you're saying and you're right that's should be the case. but even still in our shit society it doesn't matter, he'll still be seen as over compensating for something. nobility, respect, admiration ect just doesn't apply in today's society. that's just the way it is.
@@themadtitan8408 Gee, talk about being pessimistic. Tall, short, to hell with those societal conventions! To hell with excuses of inherent inadequacy! You got this!
Tom Cruise at 5'7
Michel Petrucciani: 3'
Jesus Christ: 5' to 5'2''
Marquis de Sade: 5'2''
By the way, Brock, have you ever tried to become a voice actor or radio producer? Your voice is so mellow and clear, mate!
Clicked on the video just to see the comments complaining that 5'8 isn't short. Was not disappointed. Btw, 5'8 *is* short compared to the average height of *young* *Western* men.
I'm 5'5" ,,
5'8" is short?? Not for me,, I would love to be 5'8" or 5'10"
Amazing :)
Jonothan Taylor Thomas 90's heart throb

Angus Young is 5' 3'' and Malcom Young was 5' 4'' (AC/DC)

Acheivements and sexual attraction are two different thing.
When it comes to achievements you are in control. When it comes to sexual attraction that is where short men is at a disadvantage because there is nothing you can do about it.
I agree
Short men yes they have more achievements in history in comparison to tall men
But in sexual attraction yes is different

Frank Sinatra was 5'8", I feel liked he could've been on here. I would've liked to see Bobby Darin to, but 5'9" is pushing it.
