Persons: A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.

1) C is shorter than only G. So, G must be the tallest.

2) The number of persons taller than B is equal to the number of persons shorter than D. So, B and D must be either 3rd tallest or 3rd shortest.

3) Neither A nor E is shortest. So, E and A must be taller than F.

G > C > B/D > A/E > D/B > E/A > F

Hence, F is the shortest.
