‘People scream in shock’: the US woman with the world’s longest tongue

Chanel Tapper holds Guinness World Records title with her 3.8in tongue that is longer than a medium-sized lightbulb

Party tricks are second nature to Chanel Tapper, who has long wielded the Guinness World Records title for woman with the globe's longest tongue.

The California native can easily use the 3.8in (9.75cm) organ to remove Jenga blocks from a stack. She can flip red plastic cups with it; touch the tip of her nose as well as under her chin; and raise a spoon by curling it around the utensil.
