The world's shortest man, Chandra Bahadur Dangi, 54.6 centimeters, met the world's tallest living man, Sultan Kösen, 2 meters 51, for the first time in London this week.


The two were together to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Guinness World Records.


'I was curious to meet my extreme opposite,' said Dangi, who does not come up to Kösen's knees.

Dangi was discovered in Nepal two years ago at the age of 75, according to the Daily Telegraph.


'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's a good man,' Kösen told the Telegraph.
