Longest Walking Stick Found!

WOAH!

The Longest walking stick in the world was found in Boreno, Malaysia! Leave it to NPR to run the story on the Phobaeticus chani, meaning "Chan's megastick" named for its finder Datuk Chan Chun Lun. The stick took over the previously named longest stick Phobaeticus kirbyi by a whole inch. Chan's megastick measures to 22 inches all together with it's legs. The body is 14 inches alone!
