Thom Yorke – 5 Feet 6 Inches Tall

Like Flea, his bandmate in the supergroup Atoms for Peace, Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke stands a mere 5 feet, 6 inches tall. In 2002, Q Magazine crowned the enigmatic U.K. art-rocker the "sixth most powerful figure in music," and while that's likely true in terms of popularity and creativity, we're guessing he's rubbish on the bench-press.

As is the case with virtually everyone on our list, Yorke more than compensates for his lack of height with talent and ambition. He's a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and political activist, and as you read this, he's probably prepping music on his laptop that's five years beyond anything any human has heard. He's on some next-next-level s---, so go 'head and call him short. He's not sweating it.
