This young lady has been said to have the "World's Longest Tongue."
I find it really peculiar to see someone who can stretch their tongue that far, but I bet for some men, it's a lovely fantasy come true. Some people think it's hot to see a beautiful woman with a freakish talent or abnormally sized body part.
Implications - Internet culture is infamous for its love of all that is bizarre and unusual, and the viral spread of wacky news stories and photos has turned "freaks" into famous faces. Zany unofficial world records and oddball photography sets mark this genre, which is filled with viewers who have fleeting attention spans.
