Traditionally, Guinness World Records published common information, such as the highest mountain or the oldest person. However, over time, humans and animals have been recognized for an increasing number of unusual talents. It proves that our abilities are as unlimited as our imagination. One curious human record involves a woman with fingernails that are almost 13 meters long. Others include a man who can squirt milk 279.5 cm from his eye and another man who is capable of lifting a 13-kg weight with his tongue.

  傳統上,《金氏世界紀錄大全》刊登常見的資訊,例如最高的山或最長壽的人。然而,隨著時間的推移,愈來愈多人類和動物因非比尋常的才華而受到認可。這證明了我們的能力就如同我們的想像力一樣無窮。一項奇葩的人類紀錄涉及一名手指甲幾乎長達十三公尺的女子。其他紀錄包括一位能用眼睛將牛奶噴到 279.5 公分外的男子及另一名能用舌頭舉起十三公斤重量的男子。
