8 People With The Longest Body Parts (2 of 5)

Longest Toenails

Well, not every record you break has to be a pretty one, does it? Louise Hollis made the books for having the longest toenails – and she’s had them for nearly 3 decades. Each toenail has a length of almost 6 inches, which means she can’t wear closed shoes and even has to wear at least a 3 inch platform so her toenails don’t scratch the floor. That seems like a bit much just to not clip your toenails, doesn’t it? Let’s not turn this into a trend, people.

Fingernails

We’ve had the toenails already, so might as well finish the top set too. The longest fingernails are currently being held by Diana Armstrong from Minnesota. Her longest nail measures 138,9 cm (4 ft 6,7 in). If that’s not impressive enough for you, the combined length of her fingernails clocks out at 1305,56 cm (42 feet and 10 inches), which is longer than a school bus.

The previous record had been held by Lee Redmond, who grew her nails to a combined length of 865 cm (28 ft 4 in).
