Guinness World Records is known for its collection of jaw-dropping achievements, but this one is sure to surprise you! Texan Brittany Lacayo has just claimed the title for the world's widest female tongue, breaking a record that stood unchallenged for a decade. Curious to learn more about this extraordinary feat? Read on to discover the details behind this incredible new world record!

The record for the world's widest female tongue has been broken for the first time in 10 years.

Yes, you read that correctly—it's the world's widest, not the longest, tongue.

Texan Brittany Lacayo now holds the title of having the world's widest female tongue, with a width of 7.90 centimeters.

The widest part of Lacayo's tongue measures 7.90 centimeters, which is approximately the width of a credit card.

The title of the woman with the world's widest tongue previously belonged to Emily Schlenker.

Schlenker held this record for 10 years with a tongue width of 7.33 centimeters. Interestingly, Schlenker's father also held the title of the man with the world's widest tongue for a period of time.

Lacayo mentions that her family has teased her about the width of her tongue since childhood.

The idea to measure her tongue came to her suddenly after seeing photos of the previous record holder! The world's longest tongues, by the way, measure 9.75 centimeters for women and 10.1 centimeters for men!
