<<it is true though that your feet fit exactly between your wrist and elbow>>

on molly's feet-and-bits thread, and bent down to measure yoru feet against your forearm?

I know I did!

[starone]

What, both feet or only one?

[Captin Kirk]

Can't ... tea belly gets in the way.

[naomi24]

What? Now come on. Don't make me go searching. Do you mean one of my feet is supposed to be the same size as the distance between my wrist and my elbow - because if you do - it isn't. Or have I got that wrong? :o/

[boxtops]

Yes naomi. All news to me. Lie the sole of your foot against your forearm (preferably opposite sides of the body, LOL)

[Captin Kirk]

still can't do it even after the above advice lol

[boxtops]

Get the ruler out, then, kirky!

[starone]

Either my arms are too long or my feet are too short, one of it, but it definitely does not work for me. Does that mean i look like an ape with my too long arms hanging down? Help!!

[Captin Kirk]

nah Boxy ... she's asleep on the sofa and there would be hell to pay if I woke her.

Being serious - you contorting lot - if you wade through this article you will indeed see that Vetruvian Man is in complete proportion, and bears out this suggestion. http://thealchemicalegg.com/leotaroN.html
Fascinating really, but obviously we aren't all made in the same mould, so there will be variations !

You lot must be a load of contortionists.Hhaven't seen my feet for quite a while, not to mention the unmentionables. I invested in a full-length mirror but it still didn't work.

The span of my hand fits exactly between wrist and elbow.

[naomi24]

Well, blow me down! (No don't) .... but ..... I'll be damned (more than likely)!! I've had my leg twisted up into the most ungainly position .... cough, cough ..... and bugger me, as they say ..... it only bloody well works!! Well, I'll be a monkey's auntie!!

The joys of AB, naomi - we learn something new every day, LOL!
