Its dj vu for a Colombian man who has just been declared the worlds shortest man.

Guinness World Records announced on Tuesday that it has found Edward Nio Hernndez to be the shortest living man who is mobile.

But this isnt the first world record rodeo for the 2-foot-4.3938-inch resident of Bogota, who turned 34 on Sunday. Hernndez was previously awarded the shortest living man (mobile) title in April 2010, when he measured in at 2 feet, 3.64 inches tall.

Later that year, Khagendra Thapa Magar of Nepal, who stood 2 feet, 2.41 inches tall became the new record holder. He later lost the title to a fellow Nepal citizen: 1-foot-9.5-inch Chandra Bahadur Dangi.

Both of those men have since died so the title is now passed once again to Hernndez.

Meanwhile, 1-foot-11.6-inch Junrey Balawing of the Philippines remains the shortest non-mobile man.
