The tallest man in the world and the smallest woman met, and it's like a fairy tale
Sultan Kosen from Turkey with a height of 251 centimeters and Jyoti Amge from India with a height of 62 centimeters met at the Egyptian pyramids, and their joint photo shoot is amazing. They were invited to the country by the Egyptian Council for Tourism Development.
Both 35-year-old Sultan Kesen and 24-year-old Joti Amji got into the Guinness Book of Records in 2011. Kesen also holds another record — the largest hands. He says: "I never thought I could get into the Record Books. I dreamed about it, but it was still a huge surprise."
The huge size of Kesen is caused by pituitary gigantism, a disease in which too much growth hormone is produced. According to the jury of the Book of Records, only 10 people in history have grown up to 8 feet (243 centimeters).
Because of his height, Sultan could not graduate from high school, and he had to become a farmer — but it is easy for him to work with tall trees in the garden. Another man likes to play video games with friends.
Amji became a Guinness World record holder when she was 18 years old and weighed only 5 kilograms. Her dwarfism is caused by achondroplasia, and she will not grow any more. All the clothes and dishes for her are made to order. The girl starred in the reality show Bigg Boss 6 and in the fourth season of the series "American Horror Story".
