At a staggering 2.46m, Sultan Kosen, 27, towers over everyone. But his fellow record-holder, 21-year-old He Pingping is used to that. At a tiny 74cm, he is the world's shortest man.
Kosen, the world's tallest man met Pingping, the world’s shortest man as Guinness World Records Live opens in Istanbul, the hometown of the tallest man in the world, The Sun reports.
"I've wanted to meet Pingping ever since I was awarded the title 'tallest man' and I'm really happy that he was willing to travel to Turkey so we could both take part in the launch celebration of Guinness World Records Live," Kosen said.
"I can't wait to show him around our beautiful city."
The Guinness World Records live show allows the general public to try and make it into the record books.
The live event in Turkey is being held at Forum Istanbul, the largest shopping centre in Europe.
After six weeks in Istanbul, the roadshow will visit another seven cities in Turkey.
