Manpreet Singh, 21, is the same height and weight as a six-month-old baby and is currently believed to be one of the smallest people in the whole world.
The young man from Punjab, India was born a healthy baby boy but his parents Jagtar Singh and Manjeet Kaur say that he stopped growing when he was around six months old.
Because Manpreet’s family have not ever been able to afford medical treatment, he has never been treated
Jagtar said: “We don’t have money to pay for his treatment.
“We have taken him to many doctors since his birth but around 5-7 doctors told us that he is suffering from thyroid and he can be treated….
“But we have given him a lot of medicines and there is no difference.”
Minuscule Manpreet is unable to talk and walk and stopped moving his legs when he was just three.
