Diego Maradona – 5 feet 5 inches
Perhaps one of the most famous and highly talented football stars ever to exist. Born in Argentina, Diego Maradona is currently a retired footballer and has appeared for the national team 91 times and scored an impressive 34 goals. This champion made his debut at only 15 years of age, but what’s so surprising is that he’s only 5 feet 5 inches tall. Maradona is a prime example of ‘small but strong.’
Elton John – 5 feet 7 inches
No doubt his face is well-known in almost every household. Elton John, 5 feet 7 inches high, is a highly talented English singer, songwriter, pianist, and composer. It turns out his small stature has never stopped becoming one of the greatest in the world. John sold over 300 million records, so he’s the best-selling artist. And here’s a fun fact you probably didn’t know: when he was just three, Elton John taught himself to play the piano.
