The World's Longest Ear Hair

His ear hair is 25cm long and still growing but Indian grocer Radhakant Baijpai has no intention of trimming it.

Officially recognised by Guinness in 2003 as having the longest ear hair in the world, Radhakant has carefully coifed his ear-folicles from 13.2cm to their current ear-itching length.

Considered by Radhakant, 58, to be symbol of luck and prosperity, his incredible ear-hair has been growing since he was 18 and more importantly has never been cut.
