Abstract
After a brief introduction to gravitational lensing theory, a rough overview of the types of gravitational lensing statistics that have been performed so far will be given. I shall then concentrate on recent results of galaxy-galaxy lensing, which indicate that galactic halos extend much further than can be probed via rotation of stars and gas.
