At just 1ft 11 in tall, she is dwarfed by her neighbour's baby, but Jyoti Amge is 15 years old.


The teenager, who is the world's smallest girl according to the Indian Book of Records, has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia. Now fully grown, she weighs just 11 lb.


Far from being unhappy about her tiny size, Jyoti says that she enjoys the celebrity status her height has brought her.

“I am proud of being small. I love the attention I get,” she told the Sunday Mirror.

“I'm just the same as other people. I eat like you, dream like you. I don't feel any different.”

Jyoti attends her local high school, in Nagpur, India, where she studies alongside classmates of her own age, though she sits at a specially made miniature desk.


Her mother, Ranjana, 45, explained that her daughter's condition was not apparent until some time after her birth.

“When Joyti was born she seemed quite normal. We came to know about her disorder when she was five,” she said. “Jyoti is small, yet cute, and we love her very much.”

Like any other teenager, she loves listening to pop music and watching DVDs and even hopes to become a Bollywood actress.

She has recently recorded an album with her favourite Indian pop star, Mika Singh.

11 pounds = 4.98951607 kilograms
1 feet 11 inches = 58.42 centimeters

Semsé þessi stelpa er fullvaxin og er u.þ.b. 60 cm. og u.þ.b. 5 kg.
Mætti næstum því halda að þetta væri e-ð skilt minni föðurætt þar sem enginn er hærri en 1,80 m.

Liverpool vandal chops off Ringo Starr's head
Last Updated: 8:49pm BST 07/04/2008


A foliage sculpture of ex-Beatle Ringo Starr came has come a cropper after a vandal chopped off his head.

Starr, 67, outraged parts of Liverpool in January when, days after opening the city's European Capital of Culture celebrations, he said he missed nothing about the city.


The vandal - who left John, Paul and George alone - struck nearly three months after Starr's appearance on BBC1's Jonathan Ross show.


The foliage was unveiled last month at Liverpool's South Parkway transport interchange.


The piece was created by Italian sculptor Franco Covill and paid for by Merseytravel, the city's passenger transport authority.

Ansi flottur runni en e-r húmoristi hefur tekið hausinn af runnanum sem á að vera Ringo Starr.
