World's Tallest, Shortest Men Meet In London

 
The world's tallest man, Sultan Kosen and world's shortest man, Chandra Bahadur came face to face (shin in this case) last Thursday, November 13.
Sultan Kosen from Turkey, who stands at
2.51 metres (six feet, nine inches) tall, met with Chandra Bahadur Dangi from Nepal who measures just 55 centimetres (21 and a half inches) to celebrate the 10th annual Guinness World Records Day in London.
"I was very interested how tall he was going to be, about how far up my legs he would go, and of course once I saw him I realised how tiny he was," Kosen told AFP.
He said meeting Chandra was "amazing", although he admitted bending the long, long way down for photographs was difficult.
"I do have problems with my knees so if I stand too long I do get tired," he said.
Kosen added: "Even though he is short and I am tall, we have had similar struggles throughout our lives and when I look into Chandra's eyes I can see he is a good man."
"I was very pleased to see the tallest man in the world, I was curious to meet my extreme opposite,"  Chandra Bahadur Dangi told AFP

A new diss track was released last night by super music producer Mike Will Made It titled 'P**sy Overrated' featuring Wiz and Future and the rapper and singer took aim at their exes. On the track Wiz spits, “Rich ni**a get you/ he’ll never put nothing above you / every time I see you I don’t never want nothing from you,’ while Ciara's baby daddy Future raps, “You supposed to f*ck me like a star/ girl you know you faking / yo pu**y overrated!” Ouch!

A message To the guys that want to take down LIB

So something has been going on for the past couple of days that I haven't reacted to because I wanted to see it play out and see how far these people will go. They have gone far and it's now time to react. The only reason this is happening to me is because I'm number one...so I am flattered. I am currently No.10 on Alexa.com, more read than all the other
