Rentsenkhorloo 'Ren' Bud was born in Mongolia and loves her 6ft 9in height | She has some of the longest legs in the world and isn't afraid to show them off
The 29-year-old comes from a tall family, with her father reaching 6ft 10in and her mother a slender 6ft 1in - but still struggled adapting to her height during her younger years. She confessed that finding 'cute' clothes has always been a challenge and hated constantly hitting her head on doorways. But after embracing her long legs, Ren now admits: 'I like to wear shorts and high heels, especially so my legs look more long. I love my long legs, and I think they make me more beautiful.'
The woman with the longest legs in the world is said to be teenager Maci Currin, from Austin, Texas, who has pins measuring 53 inches - smashing the previous record of 52.2 inches held by Ekaterina Lisina, of Russia. Being an extraordinary height comes with many hurdles, including finding clothes that fit to being too tall for doorways.
Recalling some of the challenges she often faces, Ren 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.
'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.' Although Ren wasn't bullied at school, she confessed that she felt less positive about her height when she was younger.
She said: '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.'And having been tall all her life, Ren couldn't imagine being any other way, adding: 'I live with my long legs, and my height my entire life. So, I think it's just a normal thing for me.'
Ren has even had the opportunity to do some modelling work, explaining: '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.'
