Russian model, Ekaterina Lisina have been crowned as the world’s tallest model and have two Guinness World Records to her name. The 29-year-old from Penza stands at 6 ft 8.77 inches with incredibly long legs. She comes from a tall family with her brother measuring 6 ft 6in, her father at 6ft 5in and her mother at 6ft 1inches. Talking about her records, the former basketball Olympian said it is a “dream come true”. After retiring from basketball, the leggy lass steered her career in modeling becoming the tallest professional model.  

Lisina is also the star of the new Guinness World Records 2018 book. Talking to The Sun about her records, she said, “I’m so excited, I’ve been trying to claim the records for months. I had to get measured so many times. All my life I have had people looking at me in the street. In Russia they don’t ask for pictures or anything, they just stay silent and stare. It can be funny when you are sitting and someone comes up to you and doesn’t expect you to be so tall, then I stand up and I can see the reaction on their faces.” She also spoke about being bullied in school for her height. She also said, “When I was growing up I had to wear men’s shoes to fit my size 14 feet. It was horrible, I would find the most feminine-looking shoes I could. I never wore heels.”
