This Model’s Legs Are Nearly 4 Feet Long, Each
Getting a leg up on the modeling world requires a certain *something*—and for one model, that something is, quite literally, legs.
Dong Lei, 20, from Anhui, China, has captured the global Internet’s attention with her insanely long stems, which, according to the Daily Mail (via People’s Daily Online), measure a staggering 3.75 feet-long each—about the height of a seven-year-old child. Including the rest of her body parts, Lei stands 5′11″ tall. (For reference, the longest jeans in supermodel Karlie Kloss’s Frame denim line, made specifically for leggy women, have a 40″ inseam.)
Lei rose to fame after appearing as a contestant on Chinese reality show Supermodel, where she earned the nickname “Tui Tui,” meaning “long legs.” Fitting!
Of her newfound fame, Dui says, “I find it incredible that I have suddenly become an Internet celebrity! I really enjoy my life and work at this moment, I fly around a lot and my work is also partly like a holiday. I will work hard to succeed going forward and hope for the best.”
We can can only hope those airlines are accommodating her lengthy limbs with exit row seats.
