World Shortest Man Woman Meet

The world’s shortest woman has met the world’s shortest man. Jyothi Amge, 18, of Nagpur, India, recently met Chandra Bahadur Dangi, 72, of Nepal, in Italy, where the pair took pictures for the 57th edition of the Guinness World Records 2013.

Amge, who stands 24.7-inches tall, became the world’s shortest woman in 2011. Amge has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia – so she has reached her maximum height.

Last year, when presented with her title, Amge – who is smaller than the average 2-year-old, said she hopes to attend university and become a Bollywood star.

Dangi became the world’s shortest man this past February – and is also the world’s shortest man in history, breaking the record of India’s Gul Mohammed, who died in 1997 at 22.5 inches tall. Dangi measures 21.5 inches tall and weighs 31 pounds, 5 ounces.

The reason for Dangi’s condition is unknown. He never received a check up from a doctor until Guinness' doctor measured him in February, and a reason for his short stature could not be determined.

“It’s a big thing for my family, my village and my country,” said Dangi, who lives in a remote Nepalese mountain village called Rhimkholi. “I am very happy.”

“It was an extraordinary moment,” said Marco Frigatti, official Guinness World Records adjudicator, of the meeting. “They’re both such incredible individuals. Everyone knew this was a special moment, and the atmosphere was magical.”

Kardashian LaChapelle Christmas card 2013

Kardashian LaChapelle Christmas card 2013, Kardashians leave no stones unturned in making their annual Christmas card as larger than life as possible, but for this Christmas, they might have gone a tad overboard as it cost $250,000 for their latest move of self-glorification; obviously the Kardashian Klan didn’t shell out a penny for it. You can see big hair and high fashion but the card shows no Lamar, Scott, Kanye or Rob. Kim Kardashian was more than excited to see the concept of the new card, as she mentioned trying new things was something that excited her the most. Before the shoot, the entire family was seen sitting around in their robes and jammies, discussing the previous Christmas holidays, presents and much, sipping their favorite champagne throughout the time. The Drama The off-beat or rather intricate Christmas card shows us the five sisters Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner along with their parents Kris Jenner and Bruce Jenner. They are seen in...

Ugly bridesmaid dresses

Ugly Bridesmaid Dresses Ugly bridesmaid dresses - All brides are beautiful, and all bridesmaid dresses are ugly, unless it’s Pippa’s. But some bridesmaid dresses go beyond ugly to truly hideous. Those Ugly bridesmaid dresses look like they came from the closet of my high school’s drama department. You know, the crappy, shapeless costumes that have seemingly been there since 1972? That’s what these dresses remind me of. Like a one-size-fits-all kind of thing. I’m glad they’re wearing such big smiles on their faces, because it shows that they don’t care about stupid, shallow things like that. They’re just happy for their newly wedded friend. Impressive.
