About Michu

“Mihaly “Michu” Meszaros, who has died aged 76, was a circus performer better known as “Michu, the smallest man in the world”.

Standing at just 33 inches tall, Michu first appeared with the Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus in 1973 and was billed as “seven inches shorter than P T Barnum’s Tom Thumb”.”
