My, what a long tongue you have!

My, what a long tongue you have! | News Article
 
 

Adrianne Lewis believes she’s the owner of the world’s longest tongue… and we think she might be right.

18-year-old Adrianne, from Michigan, USA, has a REALLY long tongue. And when we say long, we mean long… as in, she can touch her eye ball with it.

*Gulp*

In fact, Adrianne reckons her tongue may be the longest in the world, as according to her measurements it’s a lolloping 4 inches long when fully stretched out, and the current record holder Nick Stoeberl’s is a mere 3.9 inches.

Like many talents, it seems that Adrianne’s tongue may run in her family.

Her mother Julianne confirmed: ‘Her great grandfather – his tongue was very long, my mother had a very long tongue, I have a long tongue, and now she does’

But Adrianne is keen not to let her ancestors take all the glory.

She countered: ‘I feel as though I may have inherited it, but I think with time and me being the weird kid that I was and always sticking out my tongue, it could have stretched it.’

While she waits for confirmation on her record, Adrianne has been sharing her talent with the world via a series of Youtube videos, and goes by the nickname ‘Long tongue Lewis’.
