Meet a real-life elastic man – a man with a mouth so rubbery it’s more than half a foot long. Francisco Domingo Joaquim’s 16.99 cm (6.69 in) wide rubbery yap has earned him the bizarre title of the ‘World’s Widest Mouth’ by the Guinness Book of World Records.
Joaquim, also known as Chiquinho, is like a real-life version of Jim Carrey’s cartoon “Mask” character. His mouth is so wide he can fit an entire can of soda inside it – sideways.
The 20-year-old, who is also known as the ‘Angolan Jaw of Awe,’ put his elastic kisser to the test at the the ‘Big Mouth’ competition in Rome this month.

From bare knuckle to bare everything: the 102 thrillseekers strip off to take their seats on the Green Scream, Essex rollercoaster at Southend-on-Sea to break the naked rollercoaster world record, reports Daily Telegraph (UK).
Organisers were hoping they had broken a new record after 32 attempted the same feat in 2004 at Alton Towers, in Staffordshire.
Organiser Tracy Jones said: “We wanted to raise as much money as possible for this brilliant charity and give everybody who was brave enough, the chance to be part of the world record. Consequently, we had to run the Naked Rollercoaster three times.”
Senior Fundraising Manager at Bosom Pals, Barbara Warner said: “It takes a lot of nerve to take off all your clothes in front of 102 complete strangers, plus the world’s media.”

It's important to have a goal in life. Indian grocer Radhakant Baijpai certainly has one - to make sure that he has the longest ear hair in the world.
Radhakant was crowned the official Guinness world record holder for the longest ear hair back in 2003, when his aural fronds were an already-impressive 13.2cm long. But that didn't stop him pursuing his goal of ever-longer hair on his ears.
After several more years of carefully cultivating and caring for the ear-hair, Radhakant's tufts now stretch an astonishing 25cm. He is now waiting for Guinness adjudicators to confirm that he has set a new high, hairy bar for his chosen field.Ew!
Hey, don't blame me! You clicked on it!
