The longest fingernails in the world today belong to Christine Walton from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. Originally measured as the new record holder in February 2011, Walton’s nails at that time measured a combined 6.019 m (19 ft 1 in). After getting measured again in 2013, Walton’s nails had grown to a combined 7.314 m (23 ft 11 in).

The 45 year-old, who is also a talented singer going by the stage name "The Dutchess," hasn't cut her fingernails since 1990.

"I never made a conscious decision to grow the nails, but with all my children and the music commitments I guess it was easier to let the nails grow. Then one day I look down and they're like 9 inches long!"
