Ethel Granger was born in 1905 in Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom. In 1939, she was added to The Guinness Book of world Records for 'The smallest waist of a person with normal stature’ after permanently modifying her waist with the extensive use of tight corsets.
Ethel managed to reduce the natural size of her waist to a staggering 13 inches (33 cm), shaving a whopping 9 inches off her original measurement. She died in 1982 at 77 years old.
