What is who is the shortest person in the world?

As of 2021, the shortest person in the world is Chandra Bahadur Dangi from Nepal. Born in 1939, Dangi stood at a height of just 54.6 cm (21.5 inches) tall. He held the Guinness World Record for the shortest adult human ever recorded until his passing in 2015. Dangi's short stature was due to a form of primordial dwarfism called "chondrodystrophy" which stunted his growth. Despite his small size, Dangi lived a full and active life, traveling the world and meeting people from all walks of life.
