Guinness World Records says 17-year-old American girl has world’s longest legs

A 17-year-old girl from Texas who has secured the world record for the longest legs on the planet said people should “embrace” any unique physical attributes they possess.

Maci Currin, from Austin, stands at 6 feet 10 inches with a left leg that is 135.3cm long and a right leg measuring 134.3cm long. With these measurements, Ms Currin now possesses a record formerly held by Ekaterina Lisina of Russia. Ms Lisina’s legs measure 134.6cm.

The teenager has encouraged people with unique physical abilities to not "hide it, embrace it".

According to her mother, Ms Currin was only 19 inches long when she was born, but grew rapidly, reaching nearly 3 feet tall at 18 months old, and growing to 5 feet 7 inches by the time she was nine.

"She was at a Mother’s Day Out and I went to pick her up and she was already a head above the other children,” her mother Trish told Barcroft TV. "There were four or five years that she grew like five inches in a year, which is a lot. She has always had long legs. I used to think I had long legs but not anymore."

Her daughter Maci told Barcroft TV: “There are definitely negatives to having such long legs: hitting your head walking through doors, getting into cars, trying to find clothes that fit.”

She also said that going out in public can be quite uncomfortable, as people stare and take pictures of her without her consent: “Also when I go to the mall, there’s just a bunch of people staring at me. There’s people that will get their phone out and try to take a picture without asking.”

“I kind of just like stare at them like, ‘Are you serious?’”

However, the 17-year-old has not been put off by the actions of others and is aspiring to be a model.

Despite her record-breaking legs, she is not the world’s tallest woman. That title belongs to Sun Fang of China, who stands at 7 feet 3 inches tall.
