What a great photo this is. On the left is Mongolian herdsman Bao Xishun, 54, who is the world’s tallest living man (with no growth disorder) at 7′ 9″.

On the right is Nelson De La Rosa, the world’s smallest living man who at 31 years old is just 28″ tall. Nelson has a normal sized wife and a 2 year old son who is taller than his dad already!

You may recall that Bao Xishun was recently in the news for saving the lives of two dolphins who had swallowed scraps of plastic. The world’s tallest man has the world’s longest arms and was asked to reach into the dolphin’s stomachs to remove the debri. Those pics are here.
