A 17-year-old from Texas has broken the world’s longest legs record!
Standing at 6ft 10in, Maci Currin did not realize that she could be a new record holder until someone offered her a custom pair of leggings.
It was in 2018 when Maci first realized that her legs are longer than average.
After she was asked if she wanted a custom pair of leggings as she could not find one that fitted her, she started searching if she could take the Guinness World Records title for the world’s longest legs (female).
And now, she has earned her title.
Maci’s left pin is over 4ft 5in (135.267cm) long and her right 134.3cm, taking the spot from previous record-holder Ekatarina Lisina, who has 4ft 4in legs.
“There are definitely negatives to having such long legs – hitting your head walking through doors, getting into cars, trying to find clothes that fit,” Maci expressed.
But she encourages others with unique features: “Don’t hide it, embrace it.”
She added: “I was never bullied for my legs… I was bullied because I was taller than everyone.
“Around sophomore year I just stopped caring what people thought of me and once I just stopped caring I wasn’t affected by anything.”
Her long legs also gave her advantages, especially when she was playing on her school’s volleyball team.
The teen towers over her mother, Trish, who is only 5ft 7in. But her dad, Cameron, is 6ft 5in, and her sibling Jacob is 6ft 3in.
Maci is now popular on TikTok and she loves making videos that show off her incredible attribute.
She also hopes to achieve the title for being the world’s tallest professional model.
