It is really sad to hear the news of demise of the world’s smallest man. The former Guinness World record holder for being the shortest man in the world China’s Ping Ping died last month in Rome. The cause of his death is said to be his pulmonary failure.

Ping Ping was born in Mongolia in July 1988. He was only 74.61 centimeters tall. His size remained short due to a disease known as osteogenesis imperfect. This disease proved for him in his life time a blessing in disguise for him. He earned world wide fame on account of his short stature. Nevertheless, the poor young man could not enjoy international fame for much long. His age at the time of his death was 21 only. He was in Italy for the recording of a show, during the recording he suddenly had the problem of chest pain which resulted in his death.

His death is no doubt a great grief to the entire Chinese nation. After his death the question arises whether there is another smallest man in the world who could get the Guinness world record of smallest man in the world.

Born in the capital of Nepal, Kathmandu Khagendra Thapa Magar is probably going to be the next Guinness world record holder of smallest man in the world. The eighteen years old teen is just 22 inches tall who likes to ply with pebbles. The youth has weight of 10 pounds only. He expects to gain the title on his next birthday.
