Facial hair measures up to 18 and a half feet long
Those participating in No-Shave November will have a hard time catching up to Ram Singh, who holds the world record for longest mustache.
Singh, 62, of Jaipur, India, sports facial hair that measures up to 18 and a half feet long.
“People always compliment my mustache,” Singh said in an interview with Guinness World Records. “Both mustache and beard have always been a symbol of pride for men, so I’ve been able to earn a name, fame and respect for my mustache.”
He explained he has been growing it since 1970, and was awarded the title in 2010. He has not been beaten since.
Singh said he spends two and a half hours every day grooming his beard but only washes his mustache once every two weeks, despite having a complicated routine for both areas of his facial hair.
“I use various herbal oils to help maintain the health of my mustache. I massage my beard with a concoction of olive, mustard and coconut oil,” he explained. “Once I have done the mustache, I wash my beard with water infused with fuller’s earth (clay material) that I keep overnight.”
Ever since winning the title, Singh said he’s gained recognition from noteworthy politicians, including the president of India.
Yeah, but does that fuzzy rope mustache pay the rent?
Wonder if he’s not distantly related to the Kardashians?
Seems incredibly self centered.
That’s awesome.
I’d trip and hurt myself with one like that.
I like this one better, though the other one is clearly longer.
Rosie O’Donnell in drag?
wow that’s sikh
TITLE: “Man with world’s longest moustache found strangled to death in bed.” The new episode of “Friday The 13th” - the Canadian Sci-Fi show, a hair-raising story!
He’s Rollie Fingers’ cousin.
All somebody has to do is grab those long red braids, and pull DOWN hard, bringing the ‘opponents chin straight into a waiting kneecap. Next step; kick OUT with that same leg to ‘deliver a message’ to the Jewel Box.
What can I say? Imaginary fighting is fun.
That’s true, his mustache is a legit target in a fight, and it can grant an opponent significant if not total control of his head.
But I still like it, it looks kind of viking like.
Is his name John?
Yes. Impressive and downright intimidating, if you wanna know the truth!
Gross.
Yes, he’s been growing it since 1944.
(Surprised it took 13 posts!)
