A 6ft 9in woman is the proud owner of the world's second longest pair of legs, even if it does make shopping for clothes difficult sometimes.
Rentsenkhorloo Bud, 29, has legs that measure 52.8in from hip to heel, putting them up there with the longest in the world.
Rentsenkhorloo, who is originally from Mongolia but now lives in the United States in Chicago, comes from a tall family, having inherited genes from her 6ft 10 dad and 6ft 1 mum.
Despite being bullied as a youngster, the model is proud of her unique pins and says that being tall is 'beautiful'.
She told the Mirror: "When I was younger, I felt so bad because of my height. Some people made me feel uncomfortable, but nowadays it seems like I'm seen more as unique, so that's why I feel so good.
"In the last 15 years, I started to like my height and I'm really comfortable with my body and also long legs."
Rentsenkhorloo continued: "Many people asked me: 'are you a model?' so I feel great when they ask me that.
"I do modelling part time, and I just started to work with one brand, which is leggings for tall girls.
"Being tall is beautiful, and you can look so unique from other people."
That said, her height doesn't come without its drawbacks, including the challenge of finding clothes that fit or being too tall for doorways.
Rentsenkhorloo said: "The doorways are so short for me. I hate to hit my head on doorways!
"Finding clothes is really challenging. My shoe size is US 13 and you can't find any shoes in Asia and even in Mongolia and Korea."
She added: "I tried to go shopping in the United States a few times when I came here, but I couldn't find any clothes.
"I just try to buy some clothes online.
"Even when I was in the first grade, I was the same height as my teacher - 168cm. I was a little girl and I wanted cute clothes, but you can't find any cute clothes in this age, in this size."
However, even though some aspects of life can prove a little tricky, Rentsenkhorloo said she's used to it, and couldn't imagine being any other way.
"I live with my long legs, and my tall height my entire life," she said.
"So, I think it's just a normal thing for me."
The world's longest legs actually belong to Maci Curran, a teenager from Austin, Texas, whose limbs measure an astounding 53 inches.
But Rentsenkhorloo said she has no desire to enter the Guinness Book of World Records anyway, saying: "I'm not planning to do it because I don't have any interest in it."
