They say about a small dog that she is a “puppy until old age”. However, it is unlikely that any dog ​​is complex because of its growth. But small people can. Especially the guys. They say that Tom Cruise himself is worried about his height and even orders shoes with special insoles to seem taller.

But worth a look at our rating the smallest people in the worldto understand where the real and where the imaginary problems with growth. And know that low people often live longer than tall people. According to the BBC, a study in which 1.3 million residents of Spain participated revealed that every additional centimeter reduces life expectancy by 0.7 years.

10. Bridget Jordan - 69 cm

The ex-record holder from the Guinness Book of Records is still the smallest woman in the United States. She suffers from congenital dwarfism, and her diagnosis completely sounds very long - type II microcephalic osteodysplastic dwarfism.

Despite this, Bridget leads a full-fledged lifestyle, her hobbies are dancing and cheerleading.

9. Hagendra Tapa Magar - 67 cm

In Nepal, this man is known as the "Little Buddha." Born in 1992, Hagendra Tapa Magar initially weighed 600 grams. In adulthood, his weight barely exceeded 5 kg. This is due to dwarfism, a condition associated with a lack of growth hormone.

On his 18th birthday in 2010, he received the title "The Smallest Man in the World" from Guinness Book of Records experts and wore it until 2011. Then came an even more petite candidate.

Hagendra Tapa Magar died of pneumonia on January 17, 2020 at the age of 27.

8. Istvan Thoth - 65 cm

There is not much information on the Internet regarding the Hungarian Istvan Thoth, who once claimed that with a height of 65 centimeters he is the shortest person in the world. For comparison: the height of the tallest man of the living is 251 cm. Calculate how much it will be in Istvan.

This statement is not confirmed by the Guinness Book of Records, and now we may never know how true the statement of Thoth is. The fact is that the man died in 2011 at the age of forty-eight years.

7. Madge Bester - 65 cm

In 2018, she died one of the shortest women in the world. At the age of fifty-five, she was shorter than the average one-year-old girl (74 cm according to WHO indicators).

Bester suffered from a “crystal man” disease (bone fragility) and was confined to a wheelchair. However, until her last day she did not give up and was a well-known advocate for the rights of persons with disabilities.

6. Joti Amji - 62.8 cm

Currently, this miniature Indian woman is officially the smallest woman on Earth (of living people).

The small growth of Amji, born in 1993, is the result of a condition called achondroplasia, which is a common cause of dwarfism.

The young Indian woman wants to win an Oscar, and she is already on her way. In 2014, she starred in one of the seasons of the American Horror Story. So she can rightfully be called the smallest actress on the planet.

5. Lucia Zarate - 61 cm

This woman, born in Mexico in 1864, was listed in the Guinness Book of Records at the age of seventeen as the worst man ever to live on Earth. She weighed only 2.1 kilograms.

She was the first person to ever be given the rare diagnosis of Type II Microcephalic Osteodysplastic Dwarfism.

During the life of Lucia managed to achieve some semblance of fame, she was in the United States a kind of living curiosity. And the Washington Post even dubbed Zarate the “Amazing Mexican Midget”. But her short-lived success came to an end in 1890. The train Lucia traveled with her family got stuck in the Sierra Nevada mountains due to snowfall, resulting in a tiny girl who died of hypothermia.

4. Paulina Musters - 61 cm

The smallest woman in the history of mankind was twice as large in size as an ordinary Barbie doll (29 cm). She was born in the Netherlands in 1876 and began her career as a “living attraction” while still a baby. At that time, the audience simply admired its tiny proportions (height 30.5 centimeters, weight a little over 1 kg). But getting older Paulina began to surprise the audience with her talents. She was known as a skilled dancer and acrobat.

As her performances progressed in quality, Paulina took on many unique names. In particular, she was known as "Princess Pauline" and "Lady Point".

During her career, "Princess Pauline" toured various countries in Europe, and in 1894 she traveled to the United States. She was a tiny fairy on a huge stage, expressing in a dance what she felt in her heart - and it was beautiful. Charming, graceful and polite baby quickly became the favorite of New York. However, at the age of 19, she died from a lethal combination of pneumonia and meningitis. So the world lost its smallest but greatest miracle.

3. Junry Balwing - 59.9 cm

This young Filipino, one of the three lowest men on the planet, stopped growing a few months after his birth, in 1993.

Being a little over 59 centimeters tall, Junry suffers from a number of health problems, including weak knees and back pain, but an official diagnosis of his condition has never been made public. In the Balwing family, in addition to the Junry, there are three more children of normal height.

2. Gul Mohammed - 57 cm

The second tallest man in the world was from New Delhi, India. He was born in 1957 and died at the age of forty from respiratory complications after numerous health problems. All of them were associated with a long period of heavy smoking. Which once again confirms a simple truth: smoking is harmful!

1. Chandra Bahadur Dangi - 54.6 cm

This is not only the smallest man in the world, but also the thinnest man. With his super small stature, he weighed only 12 kilograms, suffering from congenital dwarfism.

Before getting into the Guinness Book of Records, Chandra never left his native village in Nepal. He used his newfound status as the shortest person in the world to travel the world and draw attention to his native country. In 2015, Chandra passed away.
