Chandra
Bahadur Dangi, the world’s shortest man and Jyoti Amge, the world’s
shortest woman met for the first time to celebrate the organisation
which made them famous.
The
18-year-old from India and the 72-year-old Nepalese both made headlines
last winter when they were given their titles by the Guinness World
Records....
Chandra
and Jyoti may be generations apart but were joking and laughing as
they posed for photos with the new book, both dressed in traditional
outfits from their native countries.
The
photoshoot for the release of the book gave them another record to add
to their list – it is the first time the world’s smallest man and woman
have met in recorded history
The
official authority on record-breaking achievements is set to release
its 57th edition of the world’s best-selling copyright book, Guinness
World Records 2013.
The
book has sold 120 million copies to date and Guinness World Records
receives more than 1,000 applications each week and has a specialized
team of multi-language record managers and adjudicators who travel the
globe to verify official record attempts.
