World Records
How about a thread on various and interesting world records?
To start, here's a Guinness Book of World Records stat that I can appreciate! 
Svetlana Pankratova (Ru) has the world's longest legs (4' 4"). BTW, the little guy in the pics, Pingping (Mongolia), is the world's smallest person at 2' 5.37"
