Right there tells me that this story is fake. Napoleon was never short, his height of 5'2" is actually in old units. In modern world he would measure as around 5'7", which was slightly above the average height for men in his days. At which point you can clearly see the chip as a figment of someone's imagination. Someone who doesn't even care to check all the hard facts first.

That is not THAT short. Here I was expecting him to be 5 foot even or something, which would have lent actual creedence to the phrase. I will henceforth stop using the phrase, since it appears that history makes a bigger deal about his height than I feel is warranted.<br /><br />Another notion is that conspiracy theorists go overboard when researching to confirm a specific bias... but time and again you reveal that they are proned to lazy, shoot-from-the-hip, take the first source you find as gospel, behaviors that defy the stereotype. <br /><br />"At least they heavily research their crackpot hypotheses."<br /><br />Can't even give 'em credit for that!Hontseur Thotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10799765178908406877noreply@blogger.com
