What do you think of when the owner of the world's highest body and lowest in the world are meeting together and Coupled together side by side. It was a rare and contrast sight isn’t it? Like sky and earth. This is what happened at the opening of the New Guinness World Records Live. Sultan Kosen of Turkey which has a 8 feet 1 inch or 246.4 cm body, which had been named as the world's tallest man met with Ping-Ping who was born on July 13, 1988 and has a height of 73 cm originated from China (Inner Mongolia). He has been named a person who has the lowest height in the world.
One time, Kosen has the desire to see Ping-Ping, and now they can meet and coexist together. This Turkish has a height above the average person because of abnormalities of the tumor. After the tumor removed, the height is stopped in the year 2008 (pituitary gigantism). Meanwhile, Ping Ping has a body condition called primordial dwarfism or osteogenesis imperfecta since birth. Some time ago Ping-Ping also been reunited with her owner in the world's longest legs, Svetlana Pankratova.

Evolta, a robot who becomes the mascot Japanese electronics company, Panasonic, has previously been awarded the Guinness World Records. This robot will amaze the public -again- by exploring the streets of Japan to conduct long march as far as 300 miles or more precisely about 482 kilometers from Tokyo to Kyoto.
As quoted by Panasonic in his videos, Evolta is a humanoid shaped robot with an interesting little two-wheeled wagon-style called daihachiguruma.
This robot, with only about 17 cm tall and weighing 997 grams is going to walk in a plastic cylinder that rotates, much like hamsters with wheels. The difference, Evolta walks pulling carts with 12 AA batteries for the energy source.
With speeds of two to three meters per hour, this robot is controlled by a remote control, and expected to arrive in Kyoto on December 10, 2010, after traveling for approximately 49 days.
Evolta scheduled to explore the historic streets such as the Tokaido, the legendary and ancient route connecting Tokyo and Kyoto. The tradition of traveling by foot has been celebrated for centuries by artists in Japan. This is also to be conducted by Evolta.
The tiny Evolta will travel according to organizers of the show regulations. For instance, he just walked in the afternoon, may only recharge the battery once a day and not allowed to walk during rainy weather. All activities are monitored by Evolta Team through a computer remotely.
Evolta’s designer team hope, this tiny robot can get to Kyoto on time and again won the Guinness World Records. If success, the action this time will make Evolta became the first humanoid robot that walks through the streets of historic Japan.
