The Guinness World Records have recognized many extraordinary talents and physical attributes over the years, and Chanel Tapper from California, USA, is one of the latest individuals to captivate the world with her unique feature.
Tapper has set the record for the longest female tongue, measuring an astounding 9.75 cm (3.8 inches) from the tip to the middle of her lip. This extraordinary attribute has made her an internet sensation and a subject of fascination for people worldwide.
Discovering Her Unique Attribute
Chanel Tapper first realized she had an exceptionally long tongue at the age of eight during a Halloween photo session with her mother. While going through the printed photographs, she noticed that her tongue looked much longer than usual.
However, it was during her middle school years that her unique attribute truly became apparent to her and those around her.
Chanel Tapper recalls, “I noticed I had a long tongue when the pictures from Halloween were printed and I saw it… but I guess it became apparent in middle school when people started commenting on it.”
Her classmates and friends were both amazed and shocked by the unusual length of her tongue, leading her to embrace the feature as a defining characteristic of her identity.
A Record-Breaking Feature
The length of Chanel Tapper’s tongue is comparable to the size of an iPhone, making it twice as long as the average human tongue. To put things into perspective, the average female tongue measures approximately 4.8 cm (1.88 inches), making Tapper’s tongue an anomaly in the best possible way.

The Guinness World Records officially recognized her tongue as the longest female tongue, an achievement that has gained her considerable attention online and in the media. Since setting the record, Tapper has appeared on numerous platforms where she showcases her unique talent.
Unlike some who might shy away from such a distinct feature, Chanel Tapper enjoys the reactions she receives. “I love it when people get such a shock that they scream in horror,” she shared. Her confidence and enthusiasm have only made her more popular, and she continues to embrace her unique characteristic with humor and pride.
Other Record-Breaking Tongues
While Chanel Tapper holds the record for the longest female tongue, the title for the longest male tongue belongs to Nick Stoeberl from the USA. His tongue measures an impressive 10.1 cm (3.97 inches). However, Stoeberl has taken his unique feature to another level—by using his tongue for painting.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Stoeberl has mastered the art of painting with his tongue. In a recent appearance on the UK television show This Morning, he amazed the hosts by wrapping his tongue in cling film and using it to paint a portrait of them live on air. His ability to create art in such an unconventional way has earned him admiration and curiosity from audiences worldwide.
One of the most incredible aspects of Stoeberl’s record-breaking tongue is its flexibility. According to Guinness World Records, his tongue is so long that he can even lick his elbow—an act widely believed to be impossible for humans.
Both Chanel Tapper and Nick Stoeberl demonstrate how unique physical attributes can be a source of fascination and entertainment. Their records stand as proof that embracing one’s distinctiveness can lead to extraordinary opportunities and worldwide recognition.
As Tapper continues to enjoy her newfound fame, she remains an inspiration to others to embrace their individuality and take pride in what makes them unique.
let’s enjoy few years on earth with peace and happiness….✍🏼🙏
