Shortest People In The World

We started a list of the shortest people in the world, men and women. As you can see so far, most of them are from Asia (Nepal, India, Philippines, Taiwan, China), suffer from dwarfism, and were included in the Guinness World Records. It’s an open list and your contributions are more than welcome 😉
