Chandra Bahadur Dangi from Nepal is declared the shortest person in the last week of February, last month.

A tiny man, also from Nepal, Khagendra Thapa Magar, was the shortest person in the world until 7 cm shorter Junrey Balawing from Philippines turned 18 and claimed the title in June last year.

Now, another Nepali has become world’s shortest person ever. The 72 year-old man is also the oldest person claiming to be the shortest person in the world.
