About Richard's legs length... again. When was Fanstravaganza 2012, I was making some calculations, but there is hard to find good photo and result is not so very objective. Here is photo where all equations can be better. First results You can read HERE.
I chose length to hip (the longer version), place where legs are ending. Still I believe that RA has legs to heaven. ;D
Ok. Maybe Richard trying to be smaller on this photo and Ian McKellen taller, but the best is that, they are staying together a little above whole group. The perspective is better, than to make equitatin from Martin Freeman's height. So... If we know height of Ian McKellen, we can know height of Richard on this photo and length of his legs. Of course we can made it shorter way, only by Ian's height, but better make it accurately.
Ian McKellen high is 5'11'' = 180,34 cm. On this photo he have 23,3 cm
Richard's height is as we know ;D 6'2'' and a half = 189,23 cm.
So we can now made equation.
x (RA height on this photo) =189,23(RA height in real) * 23,2 (Ian height on this photo) / 180,34 (Ian height in real) =24,35cm.
Richard's legs on this photo have 11,2 cm.
So we can made equitation for RA legs.
x (RA legs in real)= 189,23 (RA height in real) * 11,2 (RA legs on photo) / 24,35 (RA height on this photo) = 87 cm - 2'8''
Body ratio = 87 cm (RA legs) / 189,23 cm (RA high) * 100% = 46%
What we have here. A large % of antipathy in this relationship needed long process of heating in to learn and better know to each other. And most of all we know that pride from both sides can be reduced by love and understanding at the end.... One kiss and some influence from friend can help.
Place 2-3
Lucas North and Ros Meyers
This one is interesting. No friendship but colleagues. Two strong personalities of male and female. Female is on the charge and a bit stronger, but male doesn't matter about it. She can extracted a lot of care on him. That's why he isn't so many times in troubles, because of his hidden, not always useful attitudes. She is wonderful catalytic converter.
Harry Kennedy and Geraldine Granger
These 2 constituents need this same, but there are not the same. Long time of waiting from both sides actuated some more percent of fun and love. :) Only mix mix mix and this is pleasure to see how these two are working together.
Place 4
John Thornton and his mother
Love, understanding and care in these same proportions. Influences haven't impact on them. Strong relationship, even if it not shows many changes inside.
Place 5
John Thornton and Nicolas Higgins
I consider that this can be something similar to relation number one: antipathy from both sides, but using some catalytic converter in person of Margaret can has more influence on strong John to accept Nicolas. If longer we have them together, we can see how wonderful it works.
Place 6
Guy and Sheriff
DA Bomb. Very good relation only for making something explosive, which can damage all around. And deadly at the end.
Place 7
Guy and Meg
Unusual elements which can work together, but can make easly damaged relation. Still some miracle. I wish to see this one longer.
Place 8
John Porter and Layla Thompson
Longer relation of these two can make many wonderful products like e.g. friendship, trust and respect, but some more study on this matter isn't I'm afraid possible.
Place 9-10
Guy and Marian
Not so good mixture, because there are precipitates of not expecting and unused feelings from both sides. That's why this can't be homogeneous fluid. And at the end this shows, how bad this was.
John Porter and Katie Dartmouth
Relationship to help each other. That's why it works. All is the matter of trust, and in this one this is very big.
Place 11
Lucas and Elizabeta Starkova
This one is really strange, these two for the first minute can show that there can be something more in it. After that female constituent treating with some bad influence from Arkady constituent can change her extractor ability to change all mixture in some kind of gelignite, but some circumstances just freezed whole relation.
Place 12-13
John Porter and Gerald Baxter
Monet, Renoir and Bazille
Funny thing with these two, that they are on this same place. BROMANCE! In one made from 2 constituents, but can be produced from 3 constituents. Making things together on one way. Real friendship and care.
Place 14-15
Guy and Allan
Guy as very damaged agent and with larger impact on this relation. Under influence of Sheriff, Marian, Robin and money this one with Allan can't be better. Allan isn't very trusted and is working with others, maybe not against, but not quite for Guy. Maybe in different circumstances, this one can be great bromance.
Richard and Dino
Plush and cute together can be only better. :) Srly This one has much more votes than I've expected ;D

Chemistry - The best Richard's characters relationships
The most important on the screen is chemistry. What that means? Not special effects make the movie. Only actors and their characters, how they playing together, and how their characters interact. I was thinking very long on this post for FanstRAvaganza. I have my own 15 The Best Relationships for Richard's characters. Not only love chemistry, but hate, passion, friendship and other emotions these good and these bad. I post here only small bit of relations in series with Richard and a poll.

Biology - Anathomy of Richard Armitage's feet
From Wikipedia
"The foot (plural feet) is an anatomical structure found in many vertebrates. It is the terminal portion of a limb which bears weight and allows locomotion."
"The human foot contains 3 arches, 20 muscles, 24 ligaments, 26 bones (your two feet together contain one fourth of all the bones in your body!), 33 joints and 7,800 nerves."
RA foot isn't easy to see. The most famous RA feet-scenes are in Between the Sheets (2003). More about this movie You can read HERE on Traxy Blog. The next movie where we can see RA feet is Cold Feet (2003) and promo photos to this movie made by Andy McCartney from 2002. And of course Cleopatra, where RA is in sandals. And in Spooks Season 9 a bit. Wonder if there is a chance to see some feet in The Hobbit, but probably they will be in the prostetics.
There are mainly three types of feet.
Greek type - Foot with the second toe being the longest.
Egyptian type (the statues of the Pharaohs) - Foot with the first toe and even second being the longest.
Square type (The Polynesian foot) - Foot with even length toes.
Richard has Egyptian type (so now wonder that we call Richard - RA ;D ) with tapered toe (line 1 is only for 2 toes - wide toe version makes line on 3 toes). This type of feet can make dancing difficult, because big toe is longer and is more prone to injuries such as bunions. But this is very elegant foot.
On his photo from FanstRAvaganza Math post HERE Richard's shoes have 31 cm. So his feet can have 29-30 cm which can makes his shoe's size 44-45 (10-10,5 in english numeration), but they can be a bit longer.
The most comfortable shoes for him are with tip and wide. As we can see RA is really practical dude and takes care of his feet. As we can see on screen from BTS he has not flat foot.
Especially long toes may represent a very artistic or talented individual but can also reflect a “head in the clouds” personality, a daydreamer.
And there is one more interesting element on right foot: mole.
