The World’s Biggest and Smallest People Meet

» by GI Korea in: Entertainment Files

You would think this picture was Photoshopped if it wasn’t for the fact it is true:

The world’s tallest man has met one of the world’s smallest in China.  Bao Xishun, a 56 year-old herdsman from Inner Mongolia, is the world’s tallest man and measures 7′ 9" tall.

Meanwhile, He Pingping is applying to be entered in the Guinness World Record as the world’s shortest adult, standing at a mere 2′ 4".  According to the organiser of the meeting, it was He’s long-cherished dream to meet Bao.

Really amazing.  HT: AsianOffbeat
