Zafar Gill

Now that's a nice earring!

This is definitely the kind of thing that makes your stomach turn when looking at it. Not only is this man have weights attached to his head, the weight is only held up by one ear. This is amazing and seemingly very painful for one to endure. Mr. Gill of Pakistan is holding 136 pounds of weight with just one ear holding it up with a clamp. This record was made official on September 30th 2007 in Vienna, Austria. I am not sure of how many pounds it would take for something to rip your ear off your head, but apparently its not 136 pounds.

Stephen Taylor

What a big tongue!

When you think of long tongues, you automatically think of Gene Simmons of Kiss. Gene Simmons does have a very large tongue though he does not own the record, at least not officially. Stephen Taylor of the UK has the record for the longest tongue measuring at 3.74 inches (9.5cm) from the tip of his tongue to his top lip that was set on January 5th 2006 in Milan, Italy.
