The long and short of it...
Giants and dwarfs must fear the 15th July.
If you're either very tall or very small I'd watch out what you do today.
On this day in 1883 the world's most famous dwarf, General Tom Thumb, shuffled off his mortal coil aged only 51.
Weirdly in 1940, also on today's date the world's tallest authenticated giant keeled over. Robert Pershing Wadlow was 8 feet 11.1 inches when he died at the age of 22.
