Mikel Ruffinelli (4)

Mikel Ruffinelli currently holds the record for having the widest hips in the world at an amazing 8 foot (2.4 meters) circumference. Though she does weigh 420 pounds, her waist is only 40 inches wide – a proportionally small size considering the width of her hips, and the fact that she has given birth to four children.
