Ideal body proportions

The figures of ancient athletes are rightfully considered an example of ideal body proportions. The Roman architect Vitruvius worked on the formula of harmonious proportions in ancient times, believing that the figure of a person with arms spread to the sides and legs apart should fit into both a circle and a square. The side of this square is equal to the height of a person and the span of his arms. Later, in the 15th century, the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci supplemented the concept of harmonious body proportions with his research.

Index good health

The dimensions and proportions of the human figure are not always ideal. They are genetically predetermined and can change throughout life under the influence of physical activity or disease. Proportional build is not only beautiful - it is an indicator of good health. The endocrine gland, the pituitary gland, is responsible for human growth in the body. Violations in its work lead to such a phenomenon as gigantism. For all people it is exorbitant tall There were some problems with this gland.

Resident of Ukraine Leonid Stadnik

US resident Robert Wadlow had the longest arms and the highest height in the history of mankind. The last time its parameters were measured was in 1940. By this time, his height reached 2.72 m, and his arm span was 2.88 m. By an absurd accident, he died the same year from sepsis, having rubbed his leg with a crutch. Our contemporary, a resident of Ukraine, Leonid Stadnik, was slightly behind Wadlow in body size. He was listed in the Guinness Book of Records twice - as the owner of the longest palm - 31 cm (the norm is 24 cm), and as the owner of the tallest height in the world - 2.59 m.

Modern giants

Leonid's rapid growth began in adolescence when the pituitary gland was damaged during surgery to remove a tumor. In 2008, Stadnik refused to confirm his record according to Guinness standards due to the tedious measurement procedure. Due to his refusal, the giant Sultan Kosen, a farmer from Turkey, is now considered the owner of the longest arms, according to the Guinness Book. Today his parameters are: height 2.46 m, arm span – 2.75 m.

The Guinness Book of Records is the most amazing thing. This is the only way to become famous, to surpass something or someone who is less powerful or interesting. Ask the guy who caught the most marbles in two minutes how many times someone came up to him and asked, “Are you the guy who catches marbles with his mouth?”

In addition to talents that will not be useful in normal life, there are also very interesting ones. Such people are said to have been blessed by genetics itself or to have been unconcerned with basic personal hygiene issues. This article will tell you about the most amazing parts of the body. As the title suggests, we will talk about long parts of the body, but not those that many immediately thought of. We're sorry. Of course, you can do this yourself if you want, but no one will be held responsible for any results. And advice for men: never measure anything on yourself, otherwise you will immediately feel bad.

Anyway, no need to delve into the realm of genitalia, let's take a look at the 9 amazing people with the longest body parts.

This Indian man has a very long hair in the ears. As you understand, no more words are needed here, everything is clear. Many are irritated by both the sheer length of this spectacle and the pride with which he displays it. And for a man this is a real achievement. There are no words.

What's special about Hercari Bracho and Nick Stoberl?

While the recorded record belongs to Nick Stoberl, whose tongue is a whopping 10 cm long, Herkari Bracho claims that her tongue is much longer - by as much as 5 mm. The woman insists on reviewing the results. In any case, this is a strange and not particularly pleasant sight.

The longest eyelashes (Valery Smagliy)

No one can even imagine how this is possible. Valery claims that this is his secret diet, because of which his eyelashes grow so much, but people think that he is not human. Maybe. Anyway, he has perfect eyelashes, he should have been born a girl!

The longest legs (Svetlana Pankratova and Chase Kennedy)

Having incredible legs, the length of which is a whopping 132 cm, the Russian woman, naturally, got into the Guinness Book of Records. She has deservedly held this title since 2003. Recently, model Chase Kennedy began to claim that her legs are much longer, but their length is only 130 cm. Almost the same, but a little smaller! However, at the moment it is known for sure that the Russian woman has the longest legs in the world.

The Longest Fingers (Matthew McGrory)

Matthew is the most gigantic man in the world, and on top of that he has gigantic fingers. The length of the largest of them is 13 cm. Naturally, this is a world record.

What record can Xie Qiuping boast?

The world record is held by Xie Qiuping, whose hair length is 5.6 m. This means that in case of fire, you can use your hair as improvised means, for example, instead of a rope. This is all good, but safety comes first. Imagine how hairdressers hate her!

Longest Nails (Lee Redmond)

This American lady has decided that she doesn't want to grow her nails anymore. She started growing them in 1979, and it lasted until 2008! At that time, her nails reached a length of up to 8.65 meters. You can bet that she walked around with nail scissors all the time.

Longest neck (Padaung women in Myanmar)

Using coils to increase neck length doesn’t just look strange, but it also sounds kind of crazy, but Padaung women in Myanmar have been wearing such accessories since childhood. This is where you can find a woman with the longest neck - 40 cm. The part of the body is so long that the neck simply cannot support the head on its own without all these coils. Grown women have their own coils and sometimes take them off.

How is Mehmet Ozyurek different from other people?

This Turkish man has the longest nose in the world and can smell any smell. Mehmet's nose is a whopping 8 cm long.

Making ratings is a delicate and thankless task. What algorithm is used to determine the most beautiful woman in the world, or the most fashionable outfit, or the most interesting book? As they say, how many people, so many opinions. But mathematics is the queen of sciences, so it’s hard to argue with some ratings. The ruler will help you figure out who has the biggest nose in the world or the smallest feet. The difficulty is that today there are almost 7.5 billion people living in the world, it’s impossible to measure everyone... But still, let’s try to figure out who has the most Long hands in the world.

From the Guinness Book of Records

In 2010, the Guinness Book of Records recorded that Sultan Kosen has the longest arms today – 27.5 cm. In addition, the former Turkish basketball player is also the tallest man in the world.

Until the age of 10, the young man was an ordinary child. But then, as a result of brain surgery (Sultan had a tumor removed), the pituitary gland was affected, which led to disruption of its functioning. The boy began to grow literally before our eyes. At the age of 26, his height was 246.5 cm. The main thing that upsets young man, inability to start relationships with girls. Well, yes, any girl is unlikely to reach him above the waist, besides, Sultan Kosen probably not only has the longest arms in the world...

Before Sultan, the record holder for arm length and height was the Ukrainian lad Leonid Stadnik. The reason is still the same - disturbances in the functioning of the pituitary gland. His height was 257 cm, and his palm length was 31 cm. But these records were not officially registered, because Leonid Stadnik refused official measurements and asked for peace and quiet.

For reference: the pituitary gland is a brain appendage that produces growth hormones. Its dimensions on average are 1.3 * 0.6 * 1.0 cm, and it weighs only half a gram. This is such a tiny but important organ.

Let's look back in time

In the last century, the American Robert Wadlow (1918-1940) had the longest arms. His arm span was 288 cm, and his palm length was 32.4 cm.

The record holder's story is not very funny. Even at the age of 3 he was an ordinary boy, but at the age of 4 he suddenly began to grow very quickly. So quickly that already at the age of 8 his height reached 190 cm, and after 2 years he stretched to 198 cm and weighed 100 kg. Doctors did not delay the diagnosis for long and immediately determined that the boy had a rare disease of the pituitary gland, the part of the brain responsible for growth.

After graduating from school, the American Gulliver (in the land of Lilliputians) entered the university. He still continued to grow. By this time, his height was 263 cm and his weight was 223 kg! Therefore, Robert began to be called the tallest man in the world.

He performed in the circus. The room was very simple. The giant simply went on stage and measured his height with the audience. The tallest ones barely reached his waist. He also easily picked up grown men and women like toys. With this number he visited every state and became an American celebrity.

He died very young, at 22, from sepsis. The fact is that due to his enormous weight, Robert Wadlow experienced difficulty walking. He had to lean on a crutch. While speaking on US Independence Day in the city of Manistee, he rubbed his leg with a crutch, which caused severe inflammation with a fatal outcome.

A lot of people gathered for the funeral of this amazing American. His 500-kilogram coffin was carried by 12 people (6 on each side).

As popular wisdom says: “He has long arms”...

The expression “long arms” should not always be taken literally. In a figurative sense, this means that the person about whom they say this is very influential. The word of this person has enormous weight, millions listen to it (and the CIA is also keeping an eye on it). Is there such a person in the world?

According to Forbes magazine, this is Russian President Vladimir Putin. This is not surprising, considering that he is at the helm of the big country in the world. Countries with the largest human resources, with the largest nuclear potential, with truly inexhaustible natural resources - land, forests, water, with gigantic reserves of minerals, including hydrocarbons. With his political will he changes the course of history.

In second place after Vladimir Vladimirovich is US President Barack Obama, and Angela Merkel has descended even lower.

Top ten influential people The world included computer geniuses Bill Gates, one of the founders of Microsoft, and Lawrence Page, developer of the Google search engine. At the same time, they are called the “longest arms,” in other words, the most influential people in the computer world. It is surprising that Mark Zuckerberg, who invented Facebook, was not included in any ranking of the most influential people on the planet, but he topped the list of the youngest billionaires in the world, which is also very honorable...

Fakes

This photo clearly shows that Justin Timberlake has the longest arms in the world. It’s necessary to hug two people by the shoulders with each arm at once! I wonder if this photo is random or a lucky draw?

But this photo was taken by accident at the 2006 FIFA World Cup during Australia's game against Japan. It clearly shows that player number 13 Mark Viduka, who was a striker in the Australian team, has a very long right hand, without a doubt, the longest arm in the world.

The successful photo immediately became very popular on the Internet and literally spread throughout the world. in social networks.

In literature

"Richard Long Arms" is a series of 50 books written over 14 years by Yuri Nikitin under the pseudonym Guy Julius Orlovsky (thanks for not Caesar). The author worked on adventure books in the fantasy style from 2001 to 2014 inclusive. Events develop in a parallel world. Main character Richard, a computer scientist, finds himself by some miracle in the Middle Ages, and here adventures begin that neither Captain Vrungel, nor Captain Richard Blade, nor even Munchausen ever dreamed of.

It must be said that Nikitin is a famous writer in the genre of science fiction, historical novels, and action-packed action films. His works are popular without any promotion. But with the “Richard Long Arms” cycle, not everything is clear. Most of the reviews from those who bought the books are extremely negative. Readers are screaming about fakes, calling for fairness from the publisher and asking for the return of wasted money.
