It took 66 years to grow the longest nails in the world, but only a few minutes to cut. On Wednesday, Chillal Chillal from Pune, India, who holds the Guinness record for the longest nails in one hand, decided to host them. In fact, a mask technician and a flexible stone carefully cut through a "nail clipping ceremony" in New York.

The 82-year-old began to raise the nails in his left hand since he was 14, after inadvertently shaking a long lasting teacher. The teacher told Chillal that he would never understand how difficult it is to raise a finger until you try it yourself. Chillal took the challenge seriously. When measured for the last time, his nails reached a combined length of 908 cm, more or less the same length with buses in London. The big finger said it was both long and long.

Raising the world's longest nails is not a simple task. Chillal shows that his nails were so weak that he had to move carefully when he slept so that he would not break. "He could not cope too much, so every half an hour I wake up and move his hand to the other side of the bed." , the nails caused constant pain. However, they had their own advantages: "I never had to wait in the queue."

The historic nail clipping ceremony was held at Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum in Times Square, where it will be exhibited to the public.
