For safety you may need to catch `OSError` and return False.

True

`stat.ST_SIZE` instead of 6

that's fine too. but i don't want to import stat. Its short and sweet enough and the size position in the returned list is not going to change anytime soon.

@wRAR: os.stat('file').st_size is even better
