I'm 6'10" and have the world's longest legs - strangers say I look like a horror movie character and I can never find clothes that fit... but I still love my lengthy limbs

A woman who holds the world record for having the longest legs has candidly laid bare her daily battles - after struggling to find clothes that fit and getting compared to horror movie characters by trolls.

Maci Currin, from Austin, Texas, boasts statuesque legs - one of which measures at 53.3 inches while the other is 52.8 inches - and has held the record for four consecutive years for the longest of any female in the world.

The 21-year-old, who stands tall at 6ft 10ins, has gone viral on TikTok after sharing clips of herself demonstrating her incredible height.

She shared that she gets a 'lot of mixed reactions' - but claims she loves being unique.

'If someone is going to hate, they hate because they don't understand,' Maci dished. '[I am also] called horror movie characters, like Slenderman.

'I've always been taller than everyone since pre-school. I've always been a head above everyone.

'There was this one instance where I was playing on the playground - I think I was in second grade, and someone asked me if I was a middle schooler because of how tall I was.

'At the time, I hated my height because it was the one thing kids could target me for. [But] the best perk would have to be that no one is like me. I am unique.

She continued: 'People will often be like, "you are so beautiful, do you model?"

'As a 6ft 10inch female, my job is to empower other tall women.'

But there are downsides to her height too as Maci admitted: 'Having to duck under every doorway makes me want to grab a hammer and smash them all down!'

The young woman also struggles with dating - having shared a video recounting how men say they don't like kissing her in public because of the height difference.

She revealed: 'I currently have no interest in dating, but all the times I've dated, especially with men that are shorter than me by a significant amount, has just felt off.

'Like they were almost embarrassed of me.'

The content creator is often flooded with comments underneath her videos - from people comparing her to the Slenderman character to others asking if she is even 'real.'

The fictional Slenderman is depicted as a thin, unnaturally tall humanoid, with a featureless white head and face, and was featured in a 2018 movie of the same name.

In one video of Maci, a viewer said: 'That would be scary to see in a dark hallway.'

Some users compared her to the 'Other Mother' character in the Coraline movie.

But, elsewhere, some fans insist she should be a model thanks to her height and ask how she finds clothes that fit her - something that is a particular struggle for Maci.

'Finding clothes is hard. I shop at American Tall mostly, although they don't have any long pants that fit me. 

'I have to get them custom-made, which costs around $250 for one pair of jeans.

'I'm not made of money [so] I only have two pairs of jeans that fit me right.'

Despite her fame due to holding the world record, Maci says she isn't worried about retaining the title.

'I have had the world record for female longest legs for about four years now. 

'Having that title doesn't have a meaning to me anymore. It's more of a thing of the past. If anyone wants to take the title from me, I'd be more than happy.'
