too young to go…
I couldn’t believe this latest Yahoo news. Just few weeks ago I saw him on television walking, talking and smiling. He did not looked normal like anyone else but his smile caught my attention. Such precious soul.
I am talking about the shortest man in the world who just died. He Pingping of China was just over 74 cm tall (29 inches), has died at the age of 21 from apparent heart complications, the Guinness World Records book said.
It’s so sad. He was too young to go. Unfortunately he was suffering from a form of primordial dwarfism and anybody who has that isn’t expected to live a ripe age.

I remember this moment. The finger he was holding was from the tallest man in the world, Sultan Kösen of Turkey, standing at 8 ft 1. They were presented both to media during a promotional even in Istanbul.
