-
Maci: I have the world's longest legs.
-
Shopping for clothes, I can never find any that fit me.
-
Trish: That is so cute. It fits you well everywhere else.
-
Maci: So, the world record is Ekatarina Lisina from Russia
-
and she has 52 inches from the hip.
-
Trish: So she's an inch longer than the current Guinness world record holder.
-
Maci: My height is six nine and my legs are 53 inches.
-
Trish: We will be contacting the Guinness Book of World Record
-
to have them come and measure her officially.
-
Alright, so the out seam is measured from the top of the hip bone
-
and we go down to, you got that all the way on the top?
-
Okay 53".
-
And then her in seam 43 on the nose.
-
So 53 and 43
-
she's always had long legs.
-
I used to think I had long legs but not anymore.
-
She's got most of her height I think in her legs versus her body that's still very tall.
-
So we need six eggs and a cup of flour, a cup of milk and a dash of salt.
-
I think I realised that she was taller than the average kid at
-
about 18 months because she stood about a head above the rest of the kids.
-
Maci: Some advantages of being tall when like you're in a crowd,
-
and you're with friends and you can't find them or I can just look over everyone
-
be like, there she is.
-
Tirsh: Alright pour it in.
-
Maci: Disadvantages of being tall hitting your head, getting into cars ...
-
Male Speaker: All that batter oh yeah.
-
Maci: Finding clothes. Yeah that's about it.
-
Cameron: I'm 6 5". Both my parents are 5 6" to 5 8"
-
so there's a wild gene in my side of the family
-
I guess somewhere because I got the height gene Maci got it as well.
-
Trish: There's been like four or five years that she's grown like five inches in a year.
-
So we started way down here, probably
-
shortly after we moved in.
-
So we moved in here June of 2012.
-
Cameron: She's been right up at that 6 8", 6 9" level for
-
At least a couple of years now.
-
Maci: Going to public spaces a lot of people stare
-
and they take pictures without asking.
-
And it's kind of annoying.
-
On today's shopping spree, I'm hoping to find some back to school clothes.
-
Some T-shirts and shorts, or comfy clothes.
-
Trish: So one thing she does not like to do as a girl,
-
which I find totally crazy is she hates to shop,
-
as you will see when we are out and about
-
that shopping for her is harder than the average girl.
-
Maci: Shopping for clothes, I don't wear certain things like jeans
-
because I could never find any that fit me.
-
Elizabeth: The hardest part about finding clothes for
-
girls that have longer legs or especially have the longest legs
-
are going to be that our sizes run small, medium, large,
-
so it'd be really difficult to have something specifically tailored for her.
-
Trish: You look cute,
-
I mean they fit you everywhere other than then being too short.
-
Cady: Yeah you roll them [inaudible].
-
Trish: I think they're cute.
-
They fit you well everywhere else.
-
Cady: Just don't do the half fold, half under roll button.
-
Trish: You don't like to have rolls
-
Maci: What's going on?
-
Cady: I've known Maci for like, actually my entire life
-
except for like, a month since I was born in February and she's born in March.
-
Sarah: When she got taller than my sister
-
who's four years older than all of us, I was like, Oh, wait a minute.
-
That's different.
-
Maci: I don't really think about my leg length.
-
I mean, it's cool, I guess,
-
but like, I'm just tall that's it.
