I don't wear longer than 2-3 inches...any longer than that and its not good news for the clumsy me...:lol:

That is the perfect length any higher it does not look very good either. I remember when my older daughter was six years old she used to drag out my wife's high heal shoes. She used to place her feet squat down slowly stand up and fall down when she tried to walk. It was so funny watching her do that and with in a week she was walking in them and said to my self OMG:lol:

yes, one can run fast enough in heels of that length as well if required..:P...and its still a weapon too...(clap)..btw, how long were your wife's heels?...and wow your daughter has some talent...I on the other hand even today sometimes slip out of my shoe once in a while :lol:

She has them between 3 to 3/12 inches she only wears them on special occasions, maybe five or six times a year but she buys at least two pairs a year with a rule not the same shoe in the same crowd again:lol:.

My sister have so many saris and she was thinking to give away a few at that time I found out that she has the talent of knowing who was wearing what at a party to a minor detail. I thought my sister was the only one who had this talent but latter on I found out that every women has this power.

I am trying to see if we can tap into this amazing power and harness it for something ells as well:lol::lol:

I heard not the same dress in the same crowd but never heard this about shoes as well....well perhaps I just don't give them much credit as I keep slipping out of them...:lol:...by the way by slipping out I don't mean I fall...hota yeh hai keh mein eik kadam aagay aur meri juti eik kadam peechay hoti hai...[hilar]

oh I got an idea! this power can be used by cops when they are investigating...go find a decent scientist Uni..you can make a fortune..(bigsmile)

[h=1]A Scientific Look at the Dangers of High Heels[/h] By GRETCHEN REYNOLDS

Not long ago, Neil J. Cronin, a postdoctoral researcher, and two of his colleagues at the Musculoskeletal Research Program at Griffith University in Queensland, Australia, were having coffee on the university’s campus when they noticed a young woman tottering past in high heels. “She looked quite uncomfortable and unstable,” Dr. Cronin says.
Some observers, particularly women, might have winced in sympathy or, alternatively, wondered where she’d bought stilettos. But the three researchers, men who study the biomechanics of walking, were struck instead by the scientific implications of her passage. “We began to consider what might be happening at the muscle and tendon level” in women who wear heels, Dr. Cronin says.

[h=6]Phys Ed[/h]Gretchen Reynolds on the science of fitness.


How shoes affect human gait is a controversial topic these days. The popularity of barefoot running, for instance, has grown in large part because of the belief, still unproven, that wearing modern, well-cushioned running shoes decreases foot strength and proprioception, the sense of how the body is positioned in space, and contributes to running-related injuries.
Whether high heels might likewise affect the wearer’s biomechanics and injury risk has received scant scientific attention, however, even though millions of women wear heels almost every day. So, in one of the first studies of its kind, the Australian scientists recruited nine young women who had worn high heels for at least 40 hours a week for a minimum of two years. The scientists also recruited 10 young women who rarely, if ever, wore heels to serve as controls. The women were in their late teens, 20s or early 30s.
[h=6]Related[/h]

The scientists asked the heel-wearing women to bring their favorite pair of high-heeled shoes to the lab. There, both groups of women were equipped with electrodes to track leg-muscle activity, as well as motion-capture reflective markers. Ultrasound probes measured the length of muscle fibers in their legs.
All of the women strode multiple times along a 26-foot-long walkway that contained a plate to gauge the forces generated as they walked. The control group covered the walkway 10 times while barefoot. The other women walked barefoot 10 times and in their chosen heels 10 times.
It was obvious, as the scientists had suspected watching the woman during their coffee break, that the women habituated to high heels walked differently from those who usually wore flats, even when the heel wearers went barefoot. But the nature and extent of the differences were surprising. In results published last week in The Journal of Applied Physiology, the scientists found that heel wearers moved with shorter, more forceful strides than the control group, their feet perpetually in a flexed, toes-pointed position. This movement pattern continued even when the women kicked off their heels and walked barefoot. As a result, the fibers in their calf muscles had shortened and they put much greater mechanical strain on their calf muscles than the control group did.
In that control group, the women who rarely wore heels, walking primarily involved stretching and stressing their tendons, especially the Achilles tendon. But in the heel wearers, the walking mostly engaged their muscles.
That biomechanical distinction is important, says Dr. Cronin, who is now a researcher at the University of Jyvaskyla in Finland. “Several studies have shown that optimal muscle-tendon efficiency” while walking “occurs when the muscle stays approximately the same length while the tendon lengthens. When the tendon lengthens, it stores elastic energy and later returns it when the foot pushes off the ground. Tendons are more effective springs than muscles,” he continues. So by stretching and straining their already shortened calf muscles, the heel wearers walk less efficiently with or without heels, he says, requiring more energy to cover the same amount of ground as people in flats and probably causing muscle fatigue.
The obvious question raised by the findings, though, is so what? Does it fundamentally matter if a woman’s calf muscle fibers shorten and she neglects her tendons while walking, especially if she loves the looks of her Louboutins?
That question is difficult for a biomechanist to answer, Dr. Cronin admits. Aesthetics are outside the realm of his branch of science. But the risk of injury is not. “We think that the large muscle strains that occur when walking in heels may ultimately increase the likelihood of strain injuries,” he says. (This risk is separate from the chances that a woman, if unfamiliar with heels, may topple sideways and twist an ankle or bruise her self-image, which is an acute injury and happened to me only the one time.)
The risks extend to workouts, when heel wearers abruptly switch to sneakers or other flat shoes. “In a person who wears heels most of her working week,” Dr. Cronin says, the foot and leg positioning in heels “becomes the new default position for the joints and the structures within. Any change to this default setting,” he says, like pulling on Keds or Crocs, constitutes “a novel environment, which could increase injury risk.”
It should be noted, he adds, that in his study, the volunteers “were quite young, average age 25, suggesting that it is not necessary to wear heels for a long time, meaning decades, before adaptations start to occur.”
So, if you do wear heels and are at all concerned about muscle and joint strains, his advice is simple. Try, if possible, to ease back a bit on the towering footwear, he says. Wear high heels maybe “once or twice a week,” he says. And if that’s not practical or desirable, “try to remove the heels whenever possible, such as when you’re sitting at your desk.” The shoes can remain alluring, even nestled beside your feet.

We got to work on your walk:lol:.

Investigation you say seems like a good Idea. I was also thinking along the lines of my other Invention " the Indian Agento_O_Meter " :lol::lol:

yes uni...perhaps your daughter can give me walking lessons...she could open up a school for this...:lol:

the indian agent o meter say yaad aaya, you were in the process of making a portable one....any luck so far? :P
