What a guy - NikoKun, on 10/11/2007, -3/+167"HAHAHA They even put a little suit on him!"
- Anrkist, on 10/11/2007, -15/+166I wonder if I could order the little one on Ebay.
- blorc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+118I cannot get over the small guy being named Ping Ping. If only the tall guy was named Pong Pong, my day would be complete.
- aroundtheblock, on 11/06/2008, -1/+97Did you guys see the video of this meeting? They were carrying the shortest guy around like he was a toddler.. talk about loss of any remaining dignity.
- gutterboy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+87Is it just me or is this entire article moot without a side by side standing shot.
- jrowa, on 10/11/2007, -1/+85Who? the little guy?
- mseneschal, on 10/11/2007, -1/+75At work I sit next to the worlds fattest man. I mean... it's not confirmed or anything but boy does he stink.
- psevium, on 10/11/2007, -0/+67He takes up a lot of room..
- SpenceMasta, on 10/11/2007, -0/+66clearly mongolia is really a fantasy world filled with giants and elves
- joebruin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+53Who wouldn't pay a lot of money to see a cop flick starring these two guys?
- bills534, on 10/11/2007, -9/+56Get in my belly!!!!!!!!!!!
- allengeer, on 10/11/2007, -2/+32Am I the only one who went, awwww I want one. Look at that wittle cute bow tie!
- ostracize, on 10/11/2007, -4/+32Pay him 10 bucks to say: "Help! They're after me lucky charms!"
- trer, on 10/11/2007, -2/+30Ancient Chinese proverb, "Those who brag about penis size are those who are most insecure."
- noeljohnhoward, on 10/11/2007, -0/+28do they have to hold the little on in every shot? can he hold himself up?
- ahawks, on 10/11/2007, -0/+25That's some poor photojournalism. All we want to see is them standing side by side. I don't care about their handshake or sitting at a table. I want to see how high the little guy comes up to on the big guy.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+25He Pingping's outfit is awesome.
- FastZ, on 10/11/2007, -1/+24It's called Adblock Plus.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 - masterskill, on 10/11/2007, -1/+24Oh man.
Bow tie. - hypnotizd, on 10/11/2007, -3/+25Words are like bullets; I just let them pass right through me.
- MISDIREK7ED, on 10/11/2007, -6/+25I just want to see how far I can throw him..
- nimawin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18I expected to see a picture of the two standing right next to each other... i think everyone here wants to see how much taller he really is!
- trer, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18Friend to all. Enemy of none.
- notoneofus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Big story?
- bacon_skoda, on 10/11/2007, -1/+16or maybe industrial polution?
- esotericguy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+15since when are ther headlines on digg completely accurate?
- TheRingmaster, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15ping ping as the ball
- HanSolo69, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13Yea, except i bet SHE isn't the shortest MAN.
- xike, on 10/11/2007, -3/+16Is there a Firefox plugin specifically for making the snorgtees girl go away?
- MCMLXXXII, on 10/11/2007, -4/+16Is he really the shortest man? At the bottom of the article it says the current record holder is shorter. This would make this headline incorrect.
- Nannypoo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13Or perhaps underdeveloped muscles?
- bodger, on 10/11/2007, -2/+14Which one?
- anagoge, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12They've each got a cousin called Tetris.
- joebruin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Is there is a sitcom writer in the house?
- esotericguy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12he looks kinda frail, i think if he tried to stand his legs would probably break.
- Pensador, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11The small guy could be the tall one's keychain.
- hitmonval, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10He's a pimp. That's what's up.
- Bushrod, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Maybe Ping Ping doesn't have the muscle tone to keep himself upright?
- falstaff, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Well just for the sake of reference, the little guy is 29 inches tall, and the average newborn baby is 20 inches. According to this chart: http://pediatrics.about.com/library/growth_charts/nboysbirth.htm he's about the size of an average 10-month-old.
- danswan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9No.
- nicpedersen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8because there was a link to this story in the body of the 7'9 man marries 5'5 woman story that made the front page.
- wonboodoo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9They would have taken one, but my understanding is the Hubble space-telescope's wide-angle lens they needed was in use elsewhere at the time.
- TheRingmaster, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Its probably more of a precaution
- VastAwakening, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Actually this Bao guy is probably not the tallest man, only the tallest NATURALLY grown (no giantism)... which explains why he manage to lived to 56years so far. Asia has some crazy crazy tall people in the north for your circus. Here is a bunch of tall Asians: http://www.sentientmind.com/orientalis/?p=280
Plus Yao Ming at 7'6" is about to marry his girlfriend of 6'3".... prepare for some 8 foot tall kids. - cambob76, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Really fat people stink because they can't wipe themselves... sweaty ass-crack anyone? What a way to live.
- TheTankengine, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7It says 7.9 ft, not 7' 9".
He is just shy of 7 foot 11 inches tall. - Chrysler300Mguy, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9I believe the end of the article says the record holder is female (or at least I hope with the name Lin Yih-Chih), the headline refers to man. I am no way great with names.
- nurvus, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6So where's the goddamn link for the video of the meet and greet!!
