The 'Four Corners' Stance

Featured

A popular belief that one can easily stand with a limb in each of the four US states (Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah) simultaneously at the Four Corners Monument.

What People Remember

Many distinctly remember being taught or seeing pictures where a person could comfortably stretch out to touch all four states at once.

What's Actually True

While there is indeed a monument marking the intersection of the four states, the actual point is so small that a typical adult cannot simultaneously place one limb in each state.
