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.

I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

Shortest ones from Italy:

Toto' "u curtu" (the short one) Riina
Antonino "Nano feroce" (ferocious dwarf) Imerti
Girolamo "Mommo u nanu" (Mommo the dwarf) Marino

Willie Marfeo to Henry Tameleo:

1) "You people want a loaf of bread and you throw the crumbs back. Well, fuck you. I ain't closing down."

2) "Get out of here, old man. Go tell Raymond to go shit in his hat. We're not giving you anything."
