Question on leg and arm length

Hi All,
I have a concern.
According to the post by Bonbon512 he mentioned that
"For instance, leg length must be 100cm+. If you don't meet that requirement, even if you're 99.9cm, you'll fail your medical assessment....."
Can someone verify that?
How do they measure leg length? Example: From base of feet to groin area? or from base of feet to waist?
My height is 180cm (1.8m) and my leg length (from base of feet to groin) is about 93cm, will that mean I would have fail the medical test?
I have not measured my arms, but they are quite long, I could reach to about 230-240cm with my arms totally stretch to the ceiling.
For someone with a leg length of 100cm+, he/she would have very long legs! I have friends whose height is about 1.9m and his leg length is about 100cm

Thanks!
