American Byron Schlenker looks like an ordinary man, but as soon as he opens his mouth, it becomes clear that he is a record holder.
The uniqueness of this person is that he has the widest tongue in the world.
The width of this organ in a man is 8.6 cm – which, mind you, is several centimeters wider than an iPhone 6.
It is interesting that Byron discovered this feature of his completely by accident.
He was helping his daughter with a school project, for which he visited the library, where he accidentally came across the Guinness Book of Records.
Fascinated by the interesting records listed on the pages, Shlenker decided to measure his tongue, and as a result, he was convinced that its width was a whole centimeter larger than that of the record holder in the book.
Thus, Byron Schlenker took his rightful place in the Guinness Book of Records and became a celebrity in his city.
As Byron's wife said, his friends often make fun of him, and random passersby often ask to take a photo with him.
