Legs Up

The mission: To lie for three hours at a time, with 20 mins break, making sure both legs are up.

Let's see how others measure up...

This guy has the right basic idea, but I doubt whether he could manage this for three hours at a stretch.

OK, fair enough, I can't fault her for achieving the "legs up" part, but...........well, no. Too vertical.

Bless you, Betty, but it's the wrong leg. Besides, /way/ too sexy.

Again, a pleasing demonstration, but far, far too extreme.

Now, I like this one. The subtlety is admirable. Close, but no cigar.

This one is definitely very close indeed. One problem, the two legs need to belong the same person.

And finally, a perfect solution to the problem. Note the happy and contented look of the occupant. All is well.

Many thanks to Google for their excellent image search facility. See these pictures and more when you, too, search for "legs up".

Thank you for your time.
