Standing just over 2 feet tall, Jyoti Amge of Nagpur, India, was confirmed Friday as the world’s shortest living woman.
The title previously belonged to Bridgette Jordan, 22, of the United States, who measures 2 feet, 3 inches tall.
The record for the shortest woman in history remains with Pauline Musters, who died in 1895 at 2 feet tall even.
