The Smallest Man on the Planet

History Daily

In 1956, a man named Henry Behrens topped the list of the smallest man in the world during his lifetime. Standing just 30 inches in height, he also only weighed 32 pounds in total, his miniscule size making him incredibly popular at the time. In case you want to make sure that what you’re seeing isn’t an optical illusion, search for his photo shoot with Life magazine. Part of the shoot shows him dancing with his pet cat in front of his house in Worthing. And while Behrens had no issues being famous for his lack of height, people were still in shock about just how tiny he was.
