Scary? It's what I've been surrounded with for years!"Although at first glance our formula looks scary" said Dr Paul Stevenson of the University of Surrey who carried out the research for the Institute, "It's actually pretty simple as it's based on the science you learnt at school and which you never thought you would use in real life, in this case Pythagoras' theorem 1 Applying this to shoes can tell us just how high the heel of the foot can be lifted above the ground."
Doesn't matter how high the heels are I still walk like a duck in high heels. If God wanted me to be bigger I'd be a lot taller than 5'4"!
