There may be more than six feet between them, but the world’s tallest man and shortest woman found common ground when they were reunited this week. Sultan Kosen, who measures 8ft 3in (251cm), towered over his fellow Guinness World Record holder Jyoti Amge, who measures just over 2ft (62.8cm) tall, when they met in California on Monday. Sitting cross-legged together on the floor, their vastly different statures could not have been more apparent. One of Mr Kosen’s feet is 14.3in (36.5cm), more than half Ms Amge’s height.
