A TINY home that may very well be the smallest in the world comes with a sink, bed and toilet – and the man who built it is giving it away.
The shockingly small wheelie cabin is so light that it can be pulled along with a rope, and is designed to save homeless people from sleeping on the street.

A YouTube video recently highlighted the impressive build, which comes in at just 32 square ft.
Footage shows how compact and efficient the home is, with everything you could want neatly packed inside.
Initially, the outside of the home doesn’t look to be anything special, with it looking more like a white box than a home.
However, one look inside reveals how special it truly is.
It comes with a battery operated tap with running water, a fold down desk end even lighting that can be dimmed.
All of the tech is hidden away in a compartment, with a device to control the temperature of the home and a small charging port.
On top of the caravan-like structure sits an array of solar panels, enough to conduct 400 watts of electricity, allowing the tiny home to power itself.
This is the fourth tiny home that this man has built, who is unnamed in the clip.
He is a self-taught tiny home master, developing skills in upholstery and hooking up electrical equipment.
And for all of this effort, the brain behind the operation confirmed that the space is being given asway to someone who needs it most.
He transports the tiny homes himself for drop-off.
This specific build is going to replace a tent in an encampment in Toronto, Canada.
The comments of the video are filled with shock at what he achieved.
One person said: “We need more humans seeing homeless people as their brothers and sisters…not trash ….grateful for souls like this on this journey.”
Someone else, who went by Mimi from Montana, echoed this grateful sentiment: “I am disabled and it took years for me to get housing, homelessness isn’t a joke.
“It’s the most inhuman feeling I’ve ever experienced.
“God bless you sir for caring about others!!”
