Dangi fever on Nova

In a Breakfast content arc that has run for a number of weeks now, the next phase occured yesterday when the world's shortest man 'Dangi' flew into Sydney airport to be greeted by Nova 969's Fitzy and Wippa and about 100 Nova listeners.

Chandra Bahadur Dangi is 72 years old and lives in Nepal. He was officially recognised this year as the worlds smallest man, standing at 54.6 centimetres. Until a few days go for his trip to Australia, Dangi had never been on a plane. 

Below is the video footage of Dangi checking out his hotel room at The Star, and some pictures of the arrival at Sydney Airport and on the flight.
