World's smallest man meets woman with world's longest legs
At just 29.37in tall Ping Ping is the world's smallest man, yesterday he met Svetlana Pankrtova, the woman with the world's longest legs ... they didn't exactly see eye to eye.
It is not that they didn't get on, but that Ping Ping barely reached the knees of the Russian's 51.96in long legs.
Not that he seemed to mind, with her short skirt (not quite the world's shortest, but close) Ping Ping couldn't resist having a cheeky little look upwards.
The 20-year-old from China - who was born with primordial dwarfism - had jetted in to help launch the latest edition of the Guinness World Records Book (2009) in Trafalgar Square, London.
The book, now in its 54 year, contains new records including Britney Spears as the most-searched person on the Internet and the television show "Lost" as the most-downloaded show of all time.
About 3.5 million copies of the book are sold each year, does anyone know if that is some sort of record? There has got to be somewhere we can look that up.

He would have to be careful if he tried hitting that, he could disappear.
I have been fascinated with world records since I was first old enough to read that book.To this day I have to get the new edition each year, I can have hours of fun flicking though it looking at weird stuff.It is like the internet for when you havent got a computer with you, but without the porn.
