Re: Who knows?

I'll hazard a wild guess, I think it's something that you'd never expect so I say a passenger aircraft standing on the ground from the wheels up, some of them are two stories high I believe.

Re: Who knows?

Oo er, I'm right! Just googled to check Don't know what put it in mind but I must know the way you think, Mups.

Actually, having googled it I now know that that record has been beaten and it is now 30 feet and 1 inch!

Re: Who knows?

Smarty pants. You solved that much too quick. The record was in 2013 and held by a German man Hans-Peter Schiffer.
