It is important to remember that a president’s height does not always correlate with how effective they are as leaders. However, he or she must demonstrate that they can stand on the shoulders of the great leaders of their time.

There are several ways to determine the height of a world leader. Although, the most accurate way is to compare their height to that of other leaders and celebrities. However, some world leaders prefer to hide their height and others make an effort to look taller than they really are. In contrast to his official medical report, which states that he is just 4 feet 6 inches tall, Mexico’s President Benito Juarez is 5 feet 7 inches tall.

While there are many tallest presidents in history, there are a few shortest presidents as well. In fact, five of the presidents on this list are short.
