Meet He Ping Ping, the World's Smallest Man
Wednesday, 17 September 2008
He Ping Ping is officially one in 6.7 billion.
The world's smallest man is now a global superstar after he posed with the woman with the world's longest legs in London yesterday.
He Ping Ping is only 74.61cm tall (2ft 5.37in), which is nothing compared to Svetlana Pankratova legs which are 132cm long (4ft 3.9in).
The world's smallest man has always been popular at home in Inner Mongolia and even has his own manager.
He has primordial dwarfism but that hasn't stopped him getting a girlfriend.
People usually have to pay £400 just to see him - the equivalent of two years' income for a household in rural China.
The 19-year-old is a keen poker player and smokes two packets of cigarettes a day.
We have all the photos of the world's smallest man you could ever want. Check out our photos of He Ping Ping here.
