The world’s tallest man has met up with the Shortest Woman at Egypt’s pyramids in a bid to boost the country’s struggling tourism industry.

Mr Kosen’s extreme height is due to a condition known as pituitary gigantism, where the brain produces abnormally large amounts of growth hormone.

Ms Jyoti, from Nagpur, has a form of drawfism called achondroplasia.
