Infinitely long. You can't trick me with the coast paradox

Actually ... Not infinitely long. You wont have a precise value since each measure can be increased by taking a smaller "step" or "ruler", but it won't be infinite.
Unbounded, at least. If you give me a measurement, I can give you a larger one that's more precise.
