Mr. Tall hangs with Mr. Short

Mr. Tall hangs with Mr. Short

They finally met, with disbelief in each other's uniqueness.

Bao Xishun, former world's tallest man, who stands at 7.9 feets tall shook hands with one of the shortest man, He Pingping at height of 2.4 feet (73cm). Amazingly, both of them actually lives in the same region of Inner Mongolia.

Bao Xishun was once registered in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's tallest man in 2006, but his record was beaten just earlier this month by a Ukrainian. He Pingping, however, is not the world's shortest man as the current record belongs to Lin Yih-Chih from Taiwan who measured at 67.5cm, 5.5cm shorter than Pingping.
