Extraordinary Lives Part 1 - The World's Smallest Boy


This is Donald Banoffi, aged 13. Also known as, the world's smallest boy. He lives in Durham with his mum and dad, and his sister Dorris, aged 4, who is taller than him.

Donald was recently measured at a tiny 2 inches tall. Which is as about at big as a small carrot. Donald is like any other normal child, but he is unable to do many of the things that normal children do.

"I'm really in to Monopoly" Donald explains. "I can't play though, I can't move the pieces."

Donalds explains to me about how he wants to become the World Monopoly Champion. However, at the rate he is growing, he won't even be able to rape a granny, never mind play monopoly.
