Lindsey Worsnop

Lindsey Worsnop (born 1989) is an English teenager from Leeds, Yorkshire who has become known for her size 13 UK feet (12.25 inches long). In January 2007 she measured 6ft 5 and a half inches tall (197cm tall). She grew an inch and a half in 12 months, measuring 6-feet-4 inches tall (193cm tall) in November 2005. Her present height is unknown, but as she is eighteen years old, Lindsey almost certainly will have stopped growing by now. It is possible she may have matched, or just surpassed, her elder brother's height.

Lindsey has become something of a minor celebrity on several tall women websites and has been featured in lists of shoe sizes for tall women and various other newspaper's.

When Lindsey was born in 1989 she weighed 10lbs 7oz and looked about six months old. At nine years old she was wearing hand-me-downs from her aunties who were in their twenties. A year later, when she was 10, her feet had grown to a size eight, as large as her mothers.

On February 19,2006 she was featured in the Sunday Mirror's supplement magazine Celeb under the title ' "My giant size 13 feet are still growing" ', describing the disadvantages of finding shoes big enough to fit.

Lindsey has also appeared on ITV's This Morning with Fern Britton and Phillip Schofield on 3 March 2006. The pair organised a makeover for Lindsey, which included new clothes and four pairs of shoes large enough to fit her. [http://www.leedstoday.net/ViewArticle.aspx?sectionid=39&articleid=2007080]
