World's Shortest Man Dies


ROME – The world's shortest man has died in Italy, where he was to take part in a TV show, the program's production company said Tuesday.
He Pingping, of China, who was 2 feet, 5.37 inches (74.6 centimeters) tall, had become a recognized figure across the world, often taking part in shows, photo shoots and other events, Guinness World Records said. He was 21 years old.

INTERESTING FACT:
Both the shortest and tallest man are (I mean, were...RIP Pingping) from Mongolia. It's crazy how many tall people come from China, like not normal tall, crazy tall! Black people seem to yield tall people in general but never has the tallest man in the world been black (not sure if thats true but it helps my point). All we got is Shaq but Chinese people pop out sasquatches all the damn time!
