This little man has taken every one to surprise. Holding a very unique place in the Guinness Book Of World Records, Khagendra Thapa Magar , is recorded as the smallest man in the world at a young age of 19!

Born in the year 1992, Khagendra Thapa Magar is normal as you and me. Residing in Baglung in Nepal, he stands tall at a height of two and half feet and weighing 5kgs, cute isn't it?

The best thing about the worlds smallest man is that he is a person who is warm , loving and caring. Known as 'Little Buddha' by the villagers in his native,Nepal, this worlds smallest man seems to be quite okay with it. His friendly smile and nature captures that sparkle in his eye every time you see him.

When he was born, his family tried their level best to get him a place in the Guinness Book Of World Records but failed, as people told them their son would grow to be of normal height. But, today, Khagendra Thapa Magar makes his parents as well as Nepal proud for carrying the title of The worlds smallest man.

Suffering from Primordial Dwarfism, the worlds smallest man does not let this disorder take control of his life. Recently this month, it was recorded that while he was in Australia to bring about awareness on sex trafficking and raise donations for his foundation in Nepal , he got pulled up by a cop for being under aged to drive. Luckily , Khagendra Thapa Magar carried his passport thus saving him from getting arrested for under aged driving.

A challenging teenager and no complaints about his life, Khagendra Thapa Magar, the worlds smallest man stated that he really does not care about his height as long as his parents love and support him, which is the most important!
