Jimmy Ida, Little Al, tha Gallo Brothers mascot on President Street, Mikey Y from Slim's crew up top,

To be honest, there have been more guys who fit the very short bill than the very tall.

A lot of the guys it's a state of mind, they compensate for the lack of size with viciousness and ruthlessness..and a willingness to strike first, and hard..

I was always surprised when I saw Toto Riina for the first time on TV

The guy was only 1.58m, or just under 5ft 2, that's really diminutive for the Capo di tutti Capi..

Just shows you that in that game size really doesn't matter..

Jimmy Ida looks tiny. Is he even shorter than Casso, Amuso, Mangano and Gravano?

Fat Pete Chiodo rivaled Corrao in height. So Bill D'Elia.

Neil Dellacroce, Frank Locascio, Frank Lastorino, Anthony Baratta, Joey Testa, Vince Gigante and Anthony Senter were all a shade under 6 ft. tall; Senter may have been a little over.
