Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

The French inch of the time equalled 2!.71 centimetres, while the Imperial inch is 2!.54 centimeters!. Napoleon's height was put at around 5 ft 2 ins by three French sources (his valet Constant, General Gourgaud, and Francesco Antommarchi at Napoleon's autopsy) which on the French scale equals around 1!.68 meters!. By contrast, two English sources (Andrew Darling and John Foster) put his height at around 5 ft 7 ins, equivalent, on the Imperial scale, to about 1!.70 meters!. This would have made him slightly taller than the average Frenchman of the time!. He also surrounded himself with the soldiers of his elite guard, who were usually six feet or taller!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
