1. This person has the longest language in the world

The tongue of a young man reaches 10.1 cm in length from the tip to the middle of the upper lip. In addition, Nick set another record by drawing a beaver with his tongue in just six hours.
2. The unicorn woman
Do you have moles on your body? Then watch them closely, because it was in the place of one of them that something strange began to happen at Liang Xiuzhen from Sichuan (China). A small speck on the forehead was transformed into a horn 12.7 cm long and 5.1 cm in diameter.

Doctors could not find a truly effective medicine for this ailment, but scientists managed to find an explanation for it. This is a type of skin tumor called cutaneous horn. The reason for its appearance is not exactly clear, and treatment is carried out through chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or surgery.
3. The body of this woman is completely covered with tattoos
During her lifetime, Julia Gnuse became famous as a "painted lady". 95 percent of this American woman's body, including her face, was covered in tattoos. After 30 years, Julia developed porphyria, a disease in which the skin blisters when exposed to sunlight. To hide the scars, she began to fill tattoos, which later turned into her greatest passion. Julia died in 2016, yet she is still listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the most tattooed woman in the world.
4. The man with the largest mouth on Earth
Looking at this picture, you will probably think that it was thoroughly processed in Photoshop, but you will be fundamentally wrong. Meet Francisco Domingo, the Terrifying Jaw! The man's mouth is 17.5 cm wide and can easily fit a can of Coca-Cola. At the moment, Francisco is the owner of an honorable place in the Guinness Book of Records as the person with the largest mouth on the planet.
5. This girl has X-ray vision
Natalia Demkina is known all over the world as an X-ray girl. The Russian woman claims that she has “second sight”, which allows her to see a person from the inside, to view his organs and tissues. Natalia was in the spotlight when she began to make accurate medical diagnoses, just stroking people. The girl actively uses her unusual abilities, starting at the age of ten.
In 2004, Natalia appeared on the Discovery Channel to showcase her gift. Now she works at the Moscow Center for Special Human Diagnostics, where her personal energy-information diagnostics cabinet has been operating for ten years. It is noteworthy that people come to Natalia for a reception from all over the world.
6.96 percent of his body is covered with hair
Yu Zenghuen is a rock musician and the hairiest person on Earth who is not at all embarrassed by his personality. Thanks to her, the Chinese got into the Guinness Book of Records. Surprisingly, there are 41 hairs for every square centimeter of his skin! True, now Yu Zeng-hun has two competitors from Mexico. Men claim that they have more hair on their bodies than the recognized record holder.
7. You will envy her thin waist
Michelle Kobke (in the main photo) wears a corset every day for three years and takes it off only when it is necessary to take a shower. As a result, her waist size decreased from 63.5 cm to 40.1 cm. This German resident is making every possible effort to become the owner of the thinnest waist on the planet.
The constant wearing of a corset badly affected Michelle's health. At the moment, the girl cannot even get up without her favorite wardrobe item due to muscle atrophy, nevertheless she does not intend to retreat from the desired goal. Michelle dreams of reaching the record set by the American Katie Jung, who managed to achieve a 35.6 cm waist.
8. This man is able to dip his hands in boiling oil
If it gets on the skin, the hot oil will cause unbearable pain in any person, unless it is, of course, Ram Babu. An Indian from Uttar Pradesh has absolutely no discomfort when dipping his hands in oil at a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius! Amazingly, after this procedure, no blisters or burns form on his skin.
Ram owns a street food stall and dips his hands in oil every day while cooking. Many doctors have tried to unravel the secret of the "stone" skin of the Indian, but their scientific research has not yielded any intelligible results.
Ram discovered his amazing ability by accident. Once, when the flow of customers was especially large, he was forced to use his hands instead of the culinary spatulas to speed up the cooking process. To Ram's surprise, the hot oil did him no harm.
9. The man with the longest mustache in the world
The proud owner of the most luxurious mustache on earth is Ram Singh Chauhan from India. On March 4, 2010, the record was attested to the Italian television show Lo Show dei Record in Rome, paving the way for him to enter the Guinness Book of Records. The length of the mustache of Ram Singh Chauhan was as much as 4.29 m.
10. The shortest man in history
Chandra Dangi passed away several years ago, but he is still the shortest person in the world. The Nepalese suffered from primordial dwarfism, a pathology that usually leads to early death. Chandra was lucky: he lived to be 75 years old. The man was only 54.6 cm tall and weighs 14.5 kg.
Bonus: beautiful girls, whose height is slightly taller than standard
This is Holly Burt, an American model and one of the main contenders for the status of the owner of the longest legs in the United States. The girl's height is 196.5 cm, and the length of the legs is 124.5 cm. Holly was often teased at school for non-standard parameters, but now she literally and figuratively looks down on even the most disgusting comments about her appearance.
And this is Chase Kennedy, the Californian model who claims with good reason that she has the longest legs in the world. Her legs reach a length of 129.5 cm, and this with a height of 193 cm! Chase, too, was ridiculed at school by her classmates, but she never gave herself offense and grew up to be a fairly confident person. Now the model plans to become an event coordinator for one of the American breweries.
Both girls have a great sense of humor, and you can see this by looking at the Internet memes they created about their own growth.
