Meet Beautiful Ekaterina Lisina, The Woman With The Longest Legs In The World


Ekaterina Lisina has the longest legs among women in the world, is the world's tallest model, and as far as anyone can tell, has the biggest female feet in Russia.

Ekaterina Lisina holds the Guinness World Record for having the longest legs among women. According to the institute, her left leg measures 52.3 inches while the right one is even 52 inches long.



The model stands 6’9″ tall and realized rather early that her height would be one of her biggest assets. With a successful career in basketball where height is of the essence, the young Russian’s foresight allowed her to find favor in both sports and modeling industries early on.



Ekaterina Lisina owes it all to her family’s genetics, as not a single member clocks in under six feet. In addition to her 6’6″ brother, 6’5″ father, and 6’1″ mother, Lisina’s son is already much taller than his peers — and he hasn’t even reached puberty.

According to Inquisitr, however, glaringly towering above almost everyone else wasn’t always a plus. It’s not exactly the most welcoming trait for shy, insecure teenage boys — though it has given her ample opportunities outside of school, which she successfully harnessed into a lucrative identity.

Ekaterina Lisina’s Early Life



Born in Penza, Russia on October 15, 1987, Yekaterina Viktorovna Lisina holds yet another Guinness World Record directly attributed to her long-legged genetics. According to Metro, her 6’9″ height officially makes her the world’s tallest model. As far as anyone can tell, she also has the biggest female feet in all of Russia — at size 13.

Her father, Viktor Lisina, recalled noticing his daughter’s glaringly long legs as soon as she was born.   



“When we were picking up Ekaterina from the hospital, we noticed straight away that her legs were really long and her body mainly consisted of them,” he said. “[She] got them from her parents.”

The 31-year-old record-holder has since developed an entire ethos around her body, about what it has allowed her to accomplish. Doors have opened — and she isn’t shy about using those legs to walk through them.



“God blessed me with a fabulous height so that I can reach the stars,” she said.

The first and only female Chief Music Leader of Hong Kong’s Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance on pushing boundaries and never staying still According to local lore, 1880 brought a series of misfortunes to the village of Tai Hang: a python devoured all the livestock, a typhoon lashed the village, and a devastating plague ravaged the community. Inspired by a prophetic dream received by a village elder from Guan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy, the people of Tai Hang orchestrated a fire dragon dance that successfully dispelled the village’s misfortunes. Tai Hang is no longer the small Hakka village it once was, but the annual tradition remains to ward off bad luck with a parade performed over the Mid-Autumn Festival. Renowned for its cultural significance, the mesmerizing three-day spectacle is now recognized as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage in Hong Kong. Made from rattan, rope, and straw, and adorned with over 20,000 lit incense sticks along its 220-foot (67 m) body, the formidable fire dra...

  Turkmenistan Faces 'Parallel Reality' Media Landscape "We know about Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. But we can't access them -- everything here is blocked," said Byashim Ishanguliyev, a fruit seller in the Turkmen capital of Ashgabat. To keep information from the outside world hidden from its citizens, Turkmenistan, one of the world's most closed and isolated countries, exercises almost total control over the internet. Getting round the ban is no small feat. "Some people manage to connect to a VPN, but that's only temporary, it will also be blocked," 19-year-old Ishanguliyev told AFP at a market in Ashgabat, referring to a Virtual Private Network. "Plus the internet is slow. So if somebody manages to download an interesting video, clip or film, we all watch it together," he said. Despite the effectiveness of the Turkmen firewall, the regime is constantly stepping up measures to prevent outside information seeping into the energy-ric...
