TO GO WITH AFP STORY Nepal-Guinness-record-shortest-offbeat, FEATURE by Prakash Mathema In a picture taken on Febuary 6, 2012, Chandra Bahadur Dangi (L), a 72-year-old Nepali who claims to be the world's shortest man at 56 centimetres (22 inches) in height sits next to a child in Jhapa district, southeastern Nepal. Pilloried by neighbours, laughed at in freakshows and spurned by the women he admired from afar, orphan Chandra Bahadur Dangi has always seen his tiny stature as a curse.
