World’s tallest man height, Sultan Kosen is 2.51 metres tall
World’s shortest man’s height , Dangi is 0.55 meters tall
Hear what Sultan Kosen told AFP this afternoon in London:
“I was very interested how tall he was going to be, about how far up my legs he would go, and of course once I saw him I realised how tiny he was. I do have problems with my
knees so if I stand too long I do get tired. Even though he is short and I am tall, we have had similar struggles throughout our lives and when I look into Chandra’s eyes I can see he is a good man.”
Sultan Kosen wears shoes size 28 and currently weighs 302 lbs while Dangi wears shoes size 2 and weighs 14.5 lbs.
