00:34 Number 10.
00:35 Francisco Joaquim - Widest Mouth Let's begin our list with the Guinness World
00:41 Record holder named Chiquinho.
00:44 Meet Francisco Domingo Joaquim, the Angola native whose record-breaking mouth has made
00:50 waves and turned heads.
00:52 Meant to measure 17 centimeters or 6.69 inches when unstretched, the Guinness alumni can
00:58 actually fit a soda can inside his wide mouth.
01:03 The 31-year-old's unique feature was discovered in 2010 after winning the Big Mouth competition
01:08 in Rome, Italy.
01:10 And ever since, Francisco has been the undefeated record title holder of having the widest mouth
01:16 in the world.
01:18 According to the Angola native, he suffers from a connective tissue disorder, which gives
01:22 him the capability to outstretch his mouth to incredible sizes.
01:28 From appearing on international TV programs to dominating social media platforms, Francisco
01:34 is a true star amongst being a Guinness record breaker.
01:38 At number 9, Myrtle Corbin.
01:42 Born with an extra pair of legs in 1888, Myrtle Corbin had a congenital deformity known as
01:48 Dupigus.
01:50 Thanks to this condition, she had two separate pelvises that gave her both inner and outer
01:55 legs.
01:56 However, while she could move the inner legs just as much as she could the outer ones,
02:01 she couldn't work with them because they were smaller.
02:04 Still, technology at the time wasn't as advanced as we have today, and Myrtle had
02:09 to live with this condition all of her life.
02:12 She was able to start a family despite some medical problems, giving birth to a son and
02:16 four daughters.
02:18 In 1928, Myrtle died at the age of 60.
02:22 Number 8.
02:23 Babloo Pashy - Giant Arm.
02:26 Up next is the 29-year-old Babloo Pashy, who was born with a very rare genetic mutation.
02:33 Known as gigantism, Babloo's right arm has grown ten times its normal size.
02:37 Due to excessive growth of body tissue, Pashy's right arm weighs a shocking - are you ready
02:42 for this?
02:43 - 45 pounds, and is an extreme discomfort for the 29-year-old.
02:48 As the Indian native stated himself, his extraordinary arm causes him massive pain on a daily basis.
02:56 Babloo shared, "The weight of my arm is 20 kilos, and while washing it up starts to hurt,
03:02 I'm not able to walk, and these are the difficulties I face."
03:06 And while doctors across the nation are still trying to find a solution for Babloo Pashy's
03:10 extreme discomfort, the 29-year-old is hopeful he will one day find solace.
03:17 Number 7.
03:18 Jacqueline Rodriguez.
03:21 Our number 7 spot goes to the 19-year-old student who has defied all odds and expectations.
03:27 Jacqueline Rodriguez, who was born with lymphatic malformations, suffers from large masses in
03:34 tumors in her cheeks and tongue.
03:37 Unable to speak or be verbal, Jacqueline is forced to use her iPad as a means of communicating
03:42 with her family.
03:44 Along with having to eat through a formula tube, the California native has lived most
03:49 of her life having to overcome adversities.
03:52 But even though the 19-year-old college student may have had an extraordinary lifestyle, she
03:57 still liked other teenagers her age who enjoy playing guitar or hanging out with their siblings.
04:04 Number 6.
04:05 Matthew McGrory.
04:06 Longest Toe.
04:08 Up next is number 6.
04:10 It's the 7-foot-6-inch American actor who had earned two world record titles thanks
04:15 to these unusual features.
04:18 Even before his death, Matthew McGrory was internationally recognized as being the tallest
04:23 actor in the world.
04:25 But apart from his stunning height, the Pennsylvania native was also infamous for the size of his
04:31 toe.
04:32 Yeah, you heard that right.
04:33 According to Guinness World Records, the successful actor was said to have the longest big toe
04:38 in the world, measuring, get this, five inches in length.
04:43 Matthew McGrory had earned not one but two world records in his lifetime.
04:49 Number 5.
04:50 Mikkel Rufinelli.
04:52 Lipedema.
04:54 While some have trouble coming to terms with their unusual body features, Mikkel Rufinelli
04:59 fully embraces hers.
05:01 Born with shockingly large and wide hips, the mother of four is on her way to becoming
05:07 a Guinness World Record title holder.
05:10 Said to measure around eight feet in circumference, it's no wonder why Rufinelli is proud of her
05:15 stunning feature.
05:16 But the American housewife hasn't always had such jaw-dropping hips.
05:21 According to Mikkel, her unusual body feature developed only after she gave birth to her
05:26 younger children.
05:28 While doctors aren't exactly sure what might have happened to Rufinelli's hips, many think
05:33 Mikkel's record-breaking anatomy is the result of her childhood condition, Lipedema.
05:39 At number 4, Sain Mumtaz, the largest head.
05:44 Coming in at number 4 is the Pakistani native, whose rare condition has caused extreme growth
05:49 of his head.
05:50 The 30-year-old Sain Mumtaz was born with Proteus Syndrome, a disorder known for its
05:55 characteristic overgrowth of bones, skin, and tissues.
06:00 This rare diagnosis has caused certain body parts of Sain's body to expand immensely,
06:06 most notably his head.
06:08 Said to have a unique variation of Proteus Syndrome, the Pakistani native has gained
06:13 recognition due to his symmetrical deformity of his head and skull.
06:17 As shared by Sain, he has suffered from this rare condition ever since birth.
06:22 The 30-year-old stated, "I've been this way since I was born.
06:25 My face, my arms and legs all differ in size and people assume I'm not like other normal
06:31 human beings.
06:32 But I'm mentally fit and understand everything.
06:36 I live my life like everyone else."
06:39 Number 3, Deepak Paswan.
06:42 This is possibly one of the most popular stories about an unusual person born with extra body
06:47 parts.
06:49 When Deepak Paswan was born in India, no one expected that he would be born with two legs
06:54 protruding from his chest.
06:56 But that was his condition for a few years.
06:59 The legs and arms belonged to his underdeveloped twin, who turned out to be parasitic.
07:05 However, Deepak faced serious discrimination because of this.
07:09 As you can imagine, many other children bullied him every chance they could get.
07:14 The Hindu pilgrims, on the other hand, visited his place to worship him.
07:18 They believed that he was a reincarnation of the Lord Vishnu, a god said to have additional
07:23 limbs as well.
07:24 Finally, Deepak had a chance at living a normal life when a charitable hospital in Bangalore
07:29 agreed to take up his surgery costs in 2010.
07:34 At first, his family members were told not to visit hospitals, but eventually, they had
07:38 to listen.
07:39 $78,000 and several hours later, Deepak came out of surgery without the extra limbs.
07:46 Today, he's living a normal life.
07:49 At number 2, Jeffrey Ortega - Oversized Feet Born with an extremely rare condition known
07:56 as Proteus Syndrome, 31-year-old Jeffrey Ortega has lived his entire life with oversized feet.
08:03 As his genetic disorder is known to cause bone, skin, and tissue overgrowth, Jeffrey's
08:08 giant feet came as no surprise.
08:11 With only a handful of people affected worldwide, Ortega's syndrome has taken over his hands,
08:16 hips, legs, and most notably, his feet.
08:20 With an equivalent shoe size of 16, the Florida native is in desperate search of a quick solution.
08:26 As Ortega described himself, "It feels like I'm walking on glass.
08:30 It's very unpleasant."
08:32 And while there is still no known cure for Proteus Syndrome, doctors across the nation
08:37 are trying to help out Jeffrey Ortega and his extraordinary size 16 feet.
08:43 And at number 1, Garad Garum.
08:47 And ending off today's list with our number 1 spot is 2-year-old Nepalese Garad Garum,
08:52 who was born with an extra arm growing out of his back.
08:56 While this is not so strange in itself as it is a remnant from an underdeveloped twin,
09:01 it's rarer because of where it's growing out of.
09:04 The extra arm, which doesn't move, grew out of his spinal column in a gap in the bones
09:09 known as spina bifida.
09:11 As Garad kept growing, so did the extra arm until the boy couldn't sleep or carry out
09:15 other activities comfortably.
09:17 Garad also couldn't fit into his shirts, but the family also faced a little problem.
09:23 If they had the extra limb removed, there was a huge chance that the young boy would
09:27 be paralyzed for the rest of his life since it was growing out of a very delicate area.
09:32 Their community was also a deeply religious Hindu one, and they were reluctant to seek
09:37 medical help.
09:38 However, his family members were well aware that Garad may never be able to live a normal
09:43 life if he kept that limb forever.
09:46 They finally decided to have the surgery that would get rid of it.
09:50 After several tension-filled hours, the surgery was completed successfully and Garad wasn't
09:56 paralyzed at all.
09:59 And with that, we end today's video.
