Her videos detail her daily struggles as being a tall person in a world where not everything is curated especially for tall people. “Certain cars, I can’t even fit into because my legs are too long for it. If I walk into a regular store, nothing will fit me because they don’t really make clothes in my size, especially for pants leggings. I have to get them custom-made.” Currin decided to go after the Guinness World Record to help taller women feel more confident. She aims to help tall women feel more confident in themselves “I hope that tall women can see that the height is a gift,” she tells Guinness. “And that you shouldn’t be ashamed that you’re tall. You should really embrace it.” @_maci.cCringey content✌ ##OnlineSchool ##ProveWhatsPossible ##fyp♬ I Am TALL - Hannah Stocking
