A good voice often means - short stature...[vol. I]

The poison is kept in small bottles, they say. And apparently this is also true for musicians. The authors of the YouTube channel DataWatch made an animation in which 150 musicians (men) who started their careers in the 20th century were classified by - height. And the results are quite interesting.

The lowest on the list are Prince and Paul Simon with 152 centimeters, according to something, let's call it a Polish average, the averages are also quite low Brian Johnson (AC/DC) with 165 cm, Billy Joel and Bono with 166 cm, Phil Collins and Iggy Pop with 168 cm, Bob Dylan has only 169, James Brown, Bob Marley and Elton John 170 cm... Even the "old guard" was not very tall - Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Tony Bennett were 171, Steven Tyler, who looks tall due to his slim figure, is only 173, the same as Bryan Adams, Adam Ant, Usher and Eminem, Freddy Mercury, Krut Cobain and Michael Jackson were 175, the same as Bruce Sprinsgsteen, Billy Idol, Art Garfunkel, Jon Bon Jovi, in fact Mick Jagger is 178 cm tall, the same as Lemmy Kilmister, David Bowie, Rod Stewart, Elvis Costello and Dean Martin, the “mark” of 178 was also reached by John Lennon and George Harrison, Paul McCartney exceeded it by only one centimeter, Elvis Presley was 182 cm tall and so on…

What about the highest? The first place is shared by three - Snoop Dogg, Joe Jackson and Bruse Hornsby - all of whom are 193 cm tall.
