Worlds Longest Toenails

In 1991, the combined length of Californian Louise Hollis' 10 toenails was 2 m 21 cm (87 in) – so each is approximately 15.25 cm (6 in) long. She started growing her toenails after leaving them long to make her feet look pretty in sandals for the summer. The mother of 12 and grandmother of 21, Louise just couldn't bear to file them down. She enjoys the attention the nails bring her while out and about in her hometown of Compton, California. She spends two days a week maintaining the nails, with the whole family lending a hand to help paint and file her collection. She is single after a frustrated husband gave her the ultimatum, "It's me or the nails!" Her reply, "I've had you for 21 years but the nails are new."
