One of the greatest martial artists to ever walk the face of this earth. Just wanted to point that out.

Google says he's 5'7.5 and possibly 5'8. You also have to keep in mind that he was from an early generation when the average height was a little shorter than now. Also, he's Chinese and from Hong Kong which is shorter than mainland China. 

 

At his time, he probably wasn't short.

Most sites list him at 5'6. I don't think this "earlier generation" stuff is important. 5'6 was still considered short (even by the Chinese) when he was alive.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_average_human_height_worldwide

 

According to wikipedia average height of Hong Kong men 2006: 5'8. 

 

I myself am Chinese Canadian. Data seems accurate.
