Northern Virginia is, it increasingly appears, rich in genetically-gifted world record-holders. Arlingtonian Annie Hawkins-Turner — her stage name is Norma Stitz — has the Guinness Book of World Records’ record for world’s largest natural bre*sts. A few miles away lives the woman with the world’s longest legs. As the Washington Post noted on Monday, the Guinness record-holder for women’s longest legs is a Falls Church basketball coach.
Svetlana Pankratova’s legs are, according to Guinness, almost 4 feet, 4 inches long. (At 6 feet, 5 inches tall, she’s not the world’s tallest woman, however; the woman certified as Guinness’ tallest living woman, 7-feet-7-inch tall Yao Defen, died in November 2013.)
