Update: World's Widest Tongue
WHO - Brian Thompson
WHAT - Widest Tongue - 8.88 cm across
WHERE - La Canada Flintridge, California
WHEN - July 2018
I promised an update since I found out that the previous record holder (Byron Schlenker at 8.6 cm) had been surpassed. The new record holder is Brian Thompson, whose tongue is just slightly (0.28 cm) wider. I can just imagine that Byron is going to try to grow his tongue to reclaim the title! At least his daughter, Emily, still holds the record for the widest female tongue at 7.3 cm across, so the Schlenker family still has that going for them.
