உயரம்: 59.93 செண்டி மீட்டர் 

நாடு: southern Mindanao island.

Measuring just 59.93 centimetres, or 23.5 inches, Junrey Balawing is the oldest of four siblings - the rest all of normal stature - born in the rural town of Sindangan on southern Mindanao island. Sindangan: A Filipino blacksmith's son who stopped growing when he was a toddler was declared the world's shortest man on Sunday as he celebrated his 18th birthday.

The news came as Filipinos in the country and around the world celebrated the 113th anniversary of the proclamation of Philippine Independence. Measuring just 59.93 centimetres, or 23.5 inches, Junrey Balawing is the oldest of four siblings - the rest all of normal stature - born in the rural town of Sindangan on southern Mindanao island.

The previous record for world shortest man was Khagendra Thapa Magar of Nepal, who was measured in 2010 at just over 26 inches.“Thank you to all of you for supporting my son, the world’s shortest man,” Junrey’s father, Reynaldo, told a crush of reporters and photographers.


Junrey then blew out a candle on a cake specially made for him, before telling the crowd in a tiny voice in the local dialect: “Kapoy (I’m exhausted).” A throng of wellwishers, including politicians, witnessed the official measurement then handed him wads of cash which his parents said would go towards the family’s meagre savings. Junrey’s father said he had always believed his son to be special. He said he had been sickly as a toddler and stopped growing when he was two years old, but all the local doctors who examined him could not diagnose the problem.
