World Shortest Men Edward Nino Hernandez.

Edward Nino Hernandez Made World Record:

24-year-old Edward Nino Hernandez has been officially named the World’s shortest man. Edward is from Colombia and measures just 27 inches (70 cm), weighing 22 pounds (10 kg)! The title of World’s shortest man was confirmed by the Guinness World Records.

“He hasn’t grown since he was two years old,” said his mother Noemi Hernandez, revealing te time when is problems started.

But it seems the newly-granted title will be lasting for short. There is a contestant on the other side of the World, in Nepal, called Khagendra Thapa Magar, who measures 22 inches (56cm) and is about to be 18-years-old on October 14, when she will be able to dispute the title.

But Nino is just enjoying the situation: “I feel happy because I’m unique,” he said, adding “It bothers me that people are (always) touching me and picking me up,” referring to what bothers him about being small.
