Woman with world’s longest legs reveals her torment at the hands of TikTok trolls: 6ft 10 influencer with 53 inch long limbs reveals cruel strangers compare her to Slenderman
A woman who holds the world record for having the longest legs has revealed how she struggles to find clothes that fit.
Maci Currin, from Austin, Texas, has one leg measuring four feet tall, while the other is four feet long — and has held the record for the longest of any woman in the world for four years in a row.
The 21-year-old, who stands at 6 feet tall, has gone viral on TikTok after sharing clips of herself showcasing her incredible height.
She revealed that she gets “a lot of mixed reactions” – including being compared to horror movie characters by trolls – but claims she likes being unique.
“If someone is going to hate, they hate because they don’t understand,” Maci said.
“(I’m also) called horror movie characters, like Slenderman.

The young woman is also struggling with dating – after sharing a video of how men say they don’t like kissing her in public because of the height difference
She has stately legs of 150 and 150 cm long and has held the record for the tallest woman in the world for four years in a row
‘Since kindergarten, I’ve always been taller than everyone. I’ve always been a head above everyone.
“There was an instance where I was playing on the playground – I think I was in second grade, and someone asked me if I was a high school student because of my height.
‘At the time I hated my height because it was the only thing kids could talk to me about. (But) the best advantage should be that no one is like me. I am unique.
She continued: ‘People will often say, “You’re so beautiful, are you a model?”
“As a 6-foot woman, it’s my job to empower other tall women.”
But there are also disadvantages to her height as Maci admitted, “Having to duck under every doorway makes me want to grab a hammer and smash them all down!”

Elsewhere, some fans claim she should be a model because of her height and ask how she finds clothes that fit her – something that is a struggle for Maci in particular.

“Like they were almost ashamed of me.”
The content creator is often flooded with comments under her videos – from people comparing her to the Slenderman character to others asking if she is ‘real’.
The fictional Slenderman is depicted as a skinny, unnaturally tall humanoid, with a featureless white head and face, and was featured in a 2018 film of the same name.
In a video of Maci, a viewer said, “That would be scary to watch in a dark hallway.”
Some users compared her to the character ‘Other Mother’ in the Coraline movie.
But elsewhere, some fans insist she should be a model because of her height and ask how she finds clothes that fit her — something that’s a particular struggle for Maci.

‘Finding clothes is difficult. I mainly shop at American Tall, although they don’t have long pants that fit me.
“I have to have them custom made, which costs about $250 for one pair of jeans.
“I’m not made of money (so) I only have two pairs of jeans that fit me.”
Despite her fame for the world record, Maci says she isn’t worried about retaining the title.
‘I have held the world record for longest legs for women for about four years now.
‘Having that title no longer means anything to me. It’s more of a thing of the past. If anyone wants to take the title from me, I would be very happy about that.’
