This is the woman with the worlds smallest waist : http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/records/human_body/extreme_bodies/smallest_waist_on_a_living_person.aspx

That's an extreem version of tight-lacing. Alot of celebrities tight-lace to get the hour glass shape, where they do it just to a point where they get a small waist.

thats why they were genrally used in victorian times and then people like doctors got all clever...... xD

lol yea maybe its coz im in england? dunno :(

edit, @him yea i saw that! XD thats creepy! my waist is tiny though! ^.^ lol

I had a look to see about the history of the corset and it seems to be that it was tight-lacing too much in too little time which killed them.

I'm in England so I know quite a bit about history of this country.

Ewww, thats WAY to small!

That's why it's the extreem of tight-lacing most people do it just to take a few inches off. Taking tight-lacing that far means she has to wear a corset 24 hours because her back is now used to being supported and it could kill her to leave it off for too long. It's the same with neck stretching.

Crazy..

you come from england too!? ^.^ YAYs! im from england! XD lol

I'm from America myself. >.>

United States of America to be exact.

Don't worry Kukon *hugs*


Out of all of the England's history I find Jack The Ripper to be the most interesting, because no one ever found out who Jack really was.

ohhh THAT america.....

@Him: Thanks. -Hugs back.-

Jack the Ripper is interesting, I agree.

@Pirate: There are three americas. North. (USA) Central and South.

lol yea! >.<

hmm jack the ripper...... like oh my gosh this girl in my class had never even heard of him..... she was like "ehh who is jack the ripper?" lmao

@Pirate: She sounds rather stupid. >.>

Out of all the suspect for who Jack The Ripper I think that the most likely would have been a nurse/mid-wife with something against ladies of the night, and they would have got away with it because you would expect to see them covered in blood.

America is America to me. Someone says America I think of the large land mass :XD

Actually, HIM, they know who Jack the Ripper was. They couldn't arrest him because he was a lord.

lmao most kids at my school are! >.<

There were two Jacks there was Spring Heeled Jack who was a Lord they figured him out because of the letter on his suit there were copy cat Jacks as well with that one and there was who came later on Jack the Ripper and had something against ladies of the night and they think he if they were a he was an someone who came into the country from else where.

Either way, Jack the Ripper is definately male.

Spring heeled Jack was Lord Waterford. Not someone I would have liked to have met, crazy man bouncing round the street and breathing fire, into the faces of his victims.

Jack the Ripper must have been someone local to know the streets of London to get away that easily. London was a maze of streets at that time.

O.o;;;

One of the many things that we will never know or maybe we're not supposed to know.

Hello everyone. =o

Radums have arrived!

Do you know who Ted Bundy is, HIM?
