A worker Frank Faeek Hachem from Hampshire broke the Guinness World Record for shortest bus driver. He has 4 feet 5.6 inches in height. He drove a home car for more than 20 years, but in 2017 decided to take his bus driving test.

The 57-year-old man works in Chichester, West Sussex. He has two children. He has a kind of dwarfism(侏儒症), but he has never let his height hold him back. With no special changes for his bus, he adjusts the seat and steering wheel(方向盘) before he starts on his route.

He hopes that through the title, he can inspire others to believe in themselves and not to give up. Mr Hachem is just one of a group of new world record-holders in the coming 2021 Guinness book of records.
