Attractive?

Well, I was just wondering the other day what silly thing I could do, just for a laugh, and I decided to look on the Guinness world records site for a giggle and some inspiration. Wow! I was not let down. There are some weird and wonderful things there to see, but this one just stuck out, so I thought I would share it with you…

Radhakant Bajpai of Naya Ganj, Uttar Pradesh, India, has hair sprouting from the centre of his outer ears (middle of the pinna) that measures an incredible 13.2 cm (5.19 in) at its longest point. The length of the 50-year-old's pinna pelt was confirmed by medical examiner Dr. R P Gupta.

"Making it to Guinness World Records is indeed a special occasion for me and my family," said Radhakant. "God has been very kind to me."

Well, Radhakant, I would like to send you a gift…


How disgusting is that? At first glance it just looks like he's having a bad hair day! But, oh no. The lovely man seems so proud and serious of his 'pinna pelt'! What was he thinking? Well, if I knew where he lived, I’d certainly pop round with a pair of scissors while he’s sleeping. Yuk! It makes me squirm just thinking about it.

As for the silly thing to do, I forgot all about it in the excitement of the hairy ears. Perhaps I could find a world record of my own. Any ideas?
