Kuala Lumpur, Aug 28 (ANI): Former world's shortest man Khagendra Thapa Magar from Nepal is set to visit one of the world's tallest towers the Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia.
The Nepalese teenager, who is only 67cm tall, will certainly strike a stark contrast when he poses beside the towers during his visit here.
The 18-year-old goodwill ambassador for the Nepal Tourism Board is in Malaysia for the first time.
"I am the shortest man from the highest mountain (Mount Everest) in the world. I look forward to seeing the tallest twin towers in Malaysia," the Star Online quoted Khagendra as saying.
Khagendra was certified by the Guinness World Book of Records as the world's shortest man on October 14, 2010.
He held the record for eight months until 59cm-tall Junrey Balawing of the Phillipines knocked him out of the top spot in June this year.
He is now seeking another record attempt for having the world's smallest feet and hands. (ANI)
