Dwarf Life Expectancy

[START]

Does an adult male who is 3ft tall have an average life expectancy?

What brought this up, START?

I was watching the latest episode of “The Surreal Life” and thought how it would suck to lose Mini-me because he is only about 35 years old, so hopefully he has atleast another 35 years left in him.

Little people have pretty much normal life spans

Although some types of dwarfism may have associated medical complications, most short-statured individuals have a normal life span and normal intelligence. In fact, people with dwarfism have achieved the same range of career paths as average-size persons, including doctors, lawyers, ministers, teachers, welders, and artists.
