Henry Joseph Nasiff Jr. (April 20, 1962 - September 4, 2001), better known as Hank, The Angry, Drunken Dwarf, appeared numerous times on the Howard Stern radio show beginning in 1996. As his nickname suggests, he was invariably inebriated, and had a sharp tongue toward anyone who annoyed him.
He was only 4'1" (124 cm) tall, and weighed 95 pounds (43 kg).
In 1998, People magazine ran an online poll to determine the most beautiful people in the world. Somebody facetiously entered Hank as a write-in candidate. Word got out, and Hank won the contest, receiving hundreds of thousands of votes. At the time the online poll was launched, People led voters to believe that it would influence the print magazine listing of "most beautiful people". People later retreated, and refused to allow online votes to influence the magazine results.
Hank had a brief acting career, with parts ranging from God (Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger Part 4) to Mini-Devil (Bikini Bandits Go To Hell).
