There was one clear winner for last week’s Fan Choice competition. Zhao Jingtao from China and his fascinating hair follicle.
Taking a whopping 53 per cent of your vote, Zhao’s 23.3 cm (9.17 in) world record for longest chest haireasily beat the rest of the opposition to take his place in our end of year poll.
Zhao owned a previous chest hair that had grown almost long enough to beat the prior record, but was accidentally pulled out in June 2011. He spent more than two years re-growing it before he broke the record for good this time around. He says the hair grows an average of 1 cm per month and hopes to continue extending the record.
Every Friday here, we'll pick five records recently approved by our expert Records Management Team. We'll give you a little background on each and then ask you to vote for your favorite. The winners from each week, like Zhao, will be entered into an end-of-year bracket to determine the Fan Choice record of the year.
