Do Short people actually live longer than the tall ones?

Question

I've heard people saying that short people actually live longer than taller people and I'm 5'5" myself so I was wondering if it was true or not? Because I've noticed Asians are short and their life exceptancy are way high. Can some ppl provide me with some answers or info that would be helpful to help me find out the answer to this "myth"? Thanks!
