Good lord but she is a wee one. She kind of freaks me out in that normally small people are dwarfs and as such have stunted little bodies. This girl seems comparatively normally-proportioned despite being the size of a toddler. Kind of like she became a toddler and her body said "Right, that's enough growing for me, thank you. I think this will do nicely, actually."

That picture of her with her school friends. The girl on the far left has this expression on her face that says "I like her and all but really, it's a little unsettling."

Hat · « **Reply #2 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 18:22 »

I am not sure that woman is large enough to actually cast a shadow

Narr · « **Reply #3 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 18:22 »

Wow.

Immediately sent to the gossipers in my e-mail family so they can spread this around because that's pretty trippy.

Altered the title for reasons. Sorry about all the edits.

That picture of her with her school friends brings a whole new meaning to the phrase, "That backpack's bigger than you!"

imonfire · « **Reply #6 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 19:01 »

If I went to that highschool I'd always be watching my feet, so that I dont step on her.

People with primordial dwarfism are way more awesome.

My God, I didn't know people could be that small.

est: Nice title, but don't hold your breath for that sub-editing job.

What is that dancing horse-man?

tania · « **Reply #9 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 20:30 »

i was just talking about this with a friend today and we concluded it would be kind of upsetting if this girl ended up being incredibly brilliant or talented or something because no one would ever take her seriously. she'd be all "guys i really want to major in rocket science" and everyone else would be all HEY I BET I COULD PUT YOU IN A BAG AND CARRY YOU AROUND, DID YOU KNOW YOU'RE REALLY SMALL I JUST THOUGHT I'D POINT THAT OUT.

Doug S. Machina · « **Reply #10 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 20:52 »

Thinking of her majoring in rocket science, maybe she could be an astronaut. Mass is the critical thing when you're boosting something into space, isn't it? Who better than a tiny person?

jhocking · « **Reply #11 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 21:18 »

Not to mention she would consume much less oxygen that a normal sized person.

At that, maybe she should be an oceanographer?

karl gambolputty... · « **Reply #12 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 21:33 »

Or a cat-burglar. She would make a pretty amazing cat-burglar.

Narr · « **Reply #13 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 22:21 »

The only cat-bugler smaller than actual cats?

I am thinking the astronaut idea isn't such a bad one because she's be able to get in all sorts of places the other astronauts couldn't go for repairs and stuff.

thehollow · « **Reply #14 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 22:38 »

She could be a P.I., along the lines of Inch High. She'd also make a very challenging opponent in hide and seek.

On the subject of little people, I helped a midget compose his resume at my volunteer position today and one of his jobs was as a Midget Wrestler. Definitely the highlight of my week.

Did you people not see the story about the baby with two faces?!

Spluff · « **Reply #16 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:28 »

That's creepy.

RobbieOC · « **Reply #17 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:30 »

What's real sad about that baby is that the parents won't take it in for medical care. I'm all for respecting peoples' religions, but isn't there a line where the health of the baby needs to be pushed to the forefront and their belief that this baby is Ganush pushed a little to the back? That seems like a really tricky situation for the doctors, and I hope they figure it out.

But, yeah. A baby with two faces is kind of cute looking.

Thaes · « **Reply #18 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:36 »

I wonder what kind of surgery would it be, if the surgeons were allowed to do it. I mean, would they just "erase" the other face in some gigantic operation or something?

dennis · « **Reply #19 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:38 »

I think the headline is misleading. The article doesn't mention anything about doing surgery. The doctors just want to see if she's ok, and will grow without problems.

LucyStag · « **Reply #20 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:42 »

I should not have clicked on the two-faced baby story, I knew it would bring me nothing but sadness. In general I feel really, really bad when any human being looks scary enough to actually make me feel kind of ill and generally freaked out.

Kind of makes me feel like a jerk.

RobbieOC · « **Reply #21 on:** 09 Apr 2008, 23:43 »

Yeah, it appears there's nothing they can really do for it, aside from just watching it (and it's probably a once in a lifetime kind of thing, so a lot of interesting medical stuff could be learned from it). But without the parents' permission there's not much they can do.

I could try and find out for myself, but I think mostly they would just run away screaming, and I really don't have the money to pay for an indecent exposure charge.

This has happened a fair few time before, eg:

Mother Sushma holds her daughter Lali at their residence in Saini Sunpura, 50 kilometerseast of New Delhi, India.
this is Lali from Saini Sunpura, 50kms due east of New Dheli, India

I can't fin musch on humans but from what I can find out on craniofacial duplication in animals doesn't look to promising. Many two-faced animals don't live long due to the resulting internal organ and brain abnormalities. One problem for this child would be the dual oesophagus and trachea.

My Grandfather spent from shortly after WWII until retirement when I was a teenager working at an airplane manufacturing plant as an electrician. He told me that he used to have an entire crew of dwarves working for him because they could fit in the little tiny places in the aircraft wings, etc. that other people couldn't.

They used to specifically hire dwarves and would put ads in the paper like "Midgets wanted: Will train as electrician"

Just thought I'd pass that little anecdote of Grandpa's along.

tania · « **Reply #30 on:** 10 Apr 2008, 05:37 »

why does everyone always feel the need to point out how small i am? 5'2" is not really ridiculously short. i don't think you can legitimately call someone "tiny" unless they're under the five foot line, at least.

So apparently she can sing? She just recorded an album?

It's down the bottom of the article.

Jimmy the Squid · « **Reply #32 on:** 10 Apr 2008, 05:46 »

She only recorded an album because she is tiny. It's a pity-record-deal. Like how they still let Britney Spears pretend she is a celebrity because she is a horrible, dead-beat mum.

I am sure there'd be someone somewhere in ~~Scotland~~the world for her for which penetration was not a physical impossibility.

tania · « **Reply #35 on:** 10 Apr 2008, 06:29 »

she might be the smallest woman in the world right now but i'm sure there's lots of other people with dwarfism who are at least of similar height. she'll find a way to make something work.

People always like to tell me about how they know some one taller than me, or who has bigger hands/feets/arm-span.

It is NOT a contest. I am not gigantic in order to prove a point. This just happens tobe the way that I am.

Size often seems to have an inverse correlation with ferocity.

Whilst she is genuinely sweet, one does get the impression that Huda could legitimately bite your face off if the mood took her.

I always imagined it as more of a clawing than a biting.

Or maybe kicking your face off. Something limb related, though.
