But Julia Plecher from Germany knocks all of our efforts into a cocked hat as she set the Guinness World Record for the fasted 100 metres run in high heels this week.

Dressed in a spangly gold dress and sky-high stilettos, Julia managed to finish the course in an incredible 14.531 seconds – that’s only a few seconds more than Usain Bolt, and he very rarely wears heels on the track!

Watch Julia’s amazing world record below.
