She\u2019s 6 feet 2 inches tall, with her legs occupying 69% of her body frame, coming in at 51 \u00bd inches long!<\/p>\n<p>Barcroft TV spoke with Caroline about her long legs, with the woman explaining that she might reach out to the Guinness Book of World Records to see if she could beat the record for the longest legs, most recently recognized in 2003 as a Russian woman whose legs measured 51.9 inches.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2192\" src=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.11-PM.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.11-PM.png 530w, https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.11-PM-300x238.png 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"530\" height=\"420\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Caroline noted: \u201cI believe that they are definitely the longest in Australia and, as far as I know, in America too.\u201d She added: \u201cBecause it\u2019s so close I think it is worth contacting them and finding out exactly where they measure from and getting an official, accurate measurement done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, her size has presented a number of challenges for Caroline, most notably finding clothes that fit, specifically jeans and pants. She has to buy them for their length and not the waist size just so the material covers her legs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2193\" src=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.55-PM.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 587px) 100vw, 587px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.55-PM.png 587w, https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.29.55-PM-300x205.png 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"587\" height=\"401\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Her husband Cameron is about the same height as her and their children are also tall, with son Cooper, 13, already at mom\u2019s height, and daughter Zoe, 15, measuring 5-foot-9. Interestingly, Caroline\u2019s own mother is only 5-foot-3.<\/p>\n<p>Caroline admits that her size sometimes made it difficult for her as a child, as she was teased and called \u201cCaroline the Powerline.\u201d She didn\u2019t feel attractive, but went on to become a model at the age of 15, when she realized her legs, looks, and height were amazing attributes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-4\"><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2194\" src=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.30.10-PM.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.30.10-PM.png 400w, https:\/\/newsdelivered.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screen-Shot-2018-07-05-at-3.30.10-PM-300x226.png 300w\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"301\" \/><\/p>\n<p>She explained: \u201cI just wanted to be the same as everyone else. I started modeling when I was around 15 and that gave me confidence.\u201d Caroline added that sometimes her legs got her jobs and other times, it worked against her, explaining: \u201cI was told that I\u2019m too tall for Australian beauty standards and couldn\u2019t model clothes because they just wouldn\u2019t fit me. So as much as I did get work because of my long legs, I also got knocked back for the same reason.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She noted that people staring at her long legs has been mostly a positive experience, sharing: \u201cI just know by now that if I\u2019m going out with people in the evening, I\u2019m going to get a lot of attention so I am sort of used to it. I have had a few people say nasty things but mostly it\u2019s great and people are really nice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Caroline has definitely become more comfortable with her long legs, noting: \u201cI can honestly say now, as a 39-year-old woman, I\u2019m the most secure in my own skin that I have ever been. I feel more beautiful than I ever have in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her husband added: \u201cCaroline and I are about the same height but when we stand next to each other, her hip is much higher than mine.
