Dangi came to the attention of the media when a wood contractor saw him in his village in the Dang district of Nepal. He was awarded the title of shortest adult human ever recorded after his height was measured in February 2012. He was subsequently included in the "Guinness World Records". Three of his five brothers were less than 1.22 m (four feet) tall, while his two sisters and two other brothers are of average height.
