Big Achievement For Little Man
Updated : Jun 24, 2009
A Nepalese teenager is looking forward to being crowned the world's shortest man.
At just 2ft tall, Khagendra Thapa Magar will take the record from 2ft 5ins He Ping Ping in China.
But the 17-year-old, who was featured on a Channel 4 documentary this year, must wait four months for his 18th birthday so he is officially a man, reports the Daily Mirror.
Khagendra and his family are already in contact with Guinness.
Khagendra, who has become something of a celebrity in Nepal, said: "Once I am named as the world's smallest man then I can fulfil my dream of visiting the United States of America."
VHP wonders if Khagendra got annoyed at being called a good little boy!
