Now, i'm not a tall guy, by any stretch of the imagination, infact i slot right into the aveage height category, pretty inconsequential. Today though i'm feeling like the king of the hill. Unfortunately my happiness comes at another mans expense.
A Colombian has officially been declared the world’s shortest man by Guinness World Records officials — but his reign looks set to be short-lived. Edward Nino Hernandez, who stands just 70.21 centimeters (2 ft 3.46 in) tall, inherits a title previously held by Chinese man He Pingping who died earlier this year. Although Hernandez is formally recognized in the 2011 Guinness World Records book published this month, he is not expected to hold the title for long. Khagendra Thapa Magar, a teenager from Nepal who stands just 56 centimeters (2 feet 1.8 inches) tall, turns 18 on October 14. “I am very happy to be recognized as the shortest man in the world,” Hernandez told the Guinness World Records website. “Every person is different and unique. The more unusual you are the more you should fight and work harder.” Dude has better moves than some of my friends, but makes me think theres an Austin Powers movie coming
