A #Minnesota woman by the name of Diana Armstrong recently broke the #GuinnessWorldRecord for the longest fingernails on a pair of hands and longest #fingernails on a pair of hands ever. All combined, Armstrong carries 42 feet and 10.4 inches worth of nail as of March 13, 2022. The combined length measures longer than a typical yellow school bus. The 63-year-old #grandmother shares that she’s been growing her nails for over 25 years. “I was really shocked about it because to me, I didn’t think they were that long. But to other people they were long. But I didn’t think so at the time.” She says she was shocked to receive the call and even believed she was being #pranked. “I thought someone was playing a joke on me, I really did, so I hung up on them. Then two or three days later, I told my daughter about it, she said ‘Mom you should take their phone call’.” Armstrong said it takes 24 bottles of #nailpolish and two whole days for her grandchildren to get through painting her nails one time a year. According to the book of #WorldRecords, her right thumb comes in as the longest nail, at 4 feet and 6.7 inches, while the shortest is her left pinky nail, which measures 3 feet and 7 inches. The Minnesota woman explained that she has a #sentimental connection to the nails, sharing that her 16-year-old daughter Latisha used to always do them for her before she passed away in her sleep from an asthma attack in 1997. Now, she keeps them to remember and honor Latisha. “Anytime I thought about cutting them off, it gave me chills like I’m going through that grief all over again. I didn’t want to go through that again, so I just kept them. It’s like keeping her close to me,” Armstrong said. “When I started growing them, it wasn’t to be in the Guinness Book Of World Records,” she said. “Now since I am, I tell people, you shouldn’t judge people because you don’t know what people have gone through.” #Source: fox9, blackenterprise #Follow Us: @wonderwombman @wonderwombman2 #wonderwombman https://www.instagram.com/p/ChBGrWag1z1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
