I'm well aware of Napoleon's height; however, Alexander the Great was also pretty damn short. I heard one estimate saying that he was about 5'0'' (though that's probably fairly low-end), and I'm pretty sure there was some story about him having to stand on his chair in order to reach the proper height of some big banquet table.

From Wikipedia:

"Physically, Alexander was not prepossessing. Even by Macedonian standards he was very short, though stocky and tough."
