In almost 1200 posts, I've rarely felt compelled to post any comments in the Foot Pictures section of this forum. This is probably my second time doing so.
Norcal, I'm here to say that you've found yourself the winning lottery ticket with Torunn. Even with the possibility that she'll never pose for you again, I'm glad that she was the lightning who has found her way to your bottle, even for a brief moment in time.

Torunn is astonishing! However, is it really the same girl? Because on the Mousepad it says 5'10'' while over here on Wu's it says 6'. Looks very similar though, unless she has a double. I hope she comes back for more photographs she is a real beauty.

Definitely the same girl. Sometimes photographer's lie about a model's height and/or shoe size. It's often hard to know for sure, unless you see it or hear it from the girl herself.

True but why? I mean why would a photographer lie about foot size or height? The only thing I see worth lying about for a woman would be age or weight. In either case it wouldn't matter cause Torunn is such a hottie. But why lie? I see no reason to.

Often times the motive is financial.
Most cases that I have seen have been on the mousepad and they appeal to the big feet fans for whom size matters so much.
I've also seen the same trend in other genres such as wrestling where height matters so much to the subset of fans who prefer taller women.
Often, the shorter feet or height fans don't care as much about "proof of length", but they are a smaller market from which to profit, so we don't see stat padding in the shorter direction.

I can verify her shoe size as 10 and her height as 6'0. Since I make sure to check 2 forms of I.D. when I shoot with models I looked at her Driver's License to verify what she claimed. Size 10 shoe was what was printed on the bottom of the shoe..so you can rest assured AceCorr that my figures are correct if it matters to you that much.

Yeah, sometimes you'll see a model's shoe size change. For instance, when I asked Cierra on my site what her shoe size was, she said 4 1/2. Now I KNOW she's not a 4 1/2, but she showed me the shoes she was wearing and we also even took a photo of her wearing another pair of shoes pointing to that size later. But when we bought her some heels for a set, she got a size 6 or 6 1/2 (can't recall). So a girl's foot, just like ours, can be different for different styles of shoes. It doesn't mean anyone is "lying," per se.
Now there was one case I always found odd. When Mikayla was making the rounds and was popular, she was listed a size 12 when she debuted. Then she posed for another site and she was a size 13 there. Before you know it, she was a size 14. She just kept getting bigger and bigger. In that case, I think it was the appeal to the big foot fans of them being so large. If you can claim the largest, or close to it, then people will talk about it. Hell, the WWE has ALWAYS done this to make their wrestlers seem larger than life. I don't think Big Show was 500 lbs, but he might have been close enough to add some pounds and make it sound so unique.
As for height, Ace, I'm going to go with 5'10" and 6' being too damn close to even really matter. After all, most of us guys add an inch or two in our descriptions too. LOL

I personally met Big Show when I was doing security part time, he's definitely not 7'4 as they originally billed him out as when he started as "The Giant" in the 90's, nor was he 500 lbs. He is about 7' even and somewhere around 450lbs.

Having once had the incredible good fortune to worship Mikayla's feet at a foot party several years back, I think she really is a legit size 14. Her feet are absolutely massive.
It was so great...

That's usually the case. I know the camera adds a few pounds flattening out people onto the screen, but they've always had a thing for bumping up height and weight to make them look more like monsters.
Salvy,
I remember her debut as I made her banners for her site. She was advertising them as size 12s at that point. She went away and came back really briefly and was then a size 13. When she showed up again after an absence, but on other people's sites, she was a size 14. Just saying...
