Tourism promotion: Egypt hosts tallest man, shortest woman at Pyramids
[]
The world's tallest man, Sultan Kosen, and the shortest woman, Jyoti Amge, have visited Egypt's Giza Pyramids as part of a campaign which aims to revive the country's struggling tourism industry. 35-year old Kosen, who is of Kurdish origin, stands over two and a half meters. He is considered the first person in more than a decade to officially measure more than 8 feet. Amge, a 24-year-old actress who starred in the American television series "American Horror Story," is just over sixty centimeters.
