"What a strange baby?" most people will say when they see photos of Manpreet Singh, a resident of the Indian state of Punjab. In fact, this "child" is already 21 years old, just his physical development mysteriously stopped for medicine when Manpreet was only 6 months old.
The height of the smallest adult in the world is only 58 centimeters, and the weight is 7 kg. He doesn't talk and can't walk. The parents of the young man-child told that up to 6 months he was absolutely healthy until something happened to him. Doctors who managed to see a strange child believe that a malfunction of the thyroid gland is to blame for everything.
In his native village in Punjab, Manpreet Singh, a young man with the body of a baby, is considered a deity. The villagers come to him and ask for blessings, thinking that he is helping them. They bow to him and ask for help.
The lack of physical development of a 21-year-old boy in the body of a 6-month-old baby remains unexplained, since Manpreet Singh's family does not have the means for his full examination.
His parents, Jagtar Singh and Manjeet Kaur, say their son was born healthy but stopped growing when he was 6 months old.
The boy was tried to be treated with "different medications", which did not help. Now the only hope for parents is articles in the press that can attract public attention to their problem.
Manpreet has a younger brother and sister (pictured), but they are the most ordinary, without deviations. He is mainly engaged in his 19-year-old sister.
Says Manpreet's mother: "We took him to doctors from birth, five or seven doctors told us that he could be cured with medicines. We gave him a lot of medications, but nothing helped."
"Among our relatives and guests, he is considered a god. Whoever he blesses will have his wish fulfilled. People don't bother my son because of his height. We don't get upset about it. We all worship him. People love him very much. Every day they come to worship their son."
