10 features of the human body that are extremely rare

We are all similar, and at the same time very different: some have brown eyes, others have blond hair, and others are short. But for some of us nature has awarded even more unique features. Some are embarrassed and hide them all their lives, while others turn flaws and anomalies into features.

10 PHOTOS

1. Hyperdontia

There are people who do not have 32 teeth in their mouths, like most, but much more. Sometimes there are so many extra teeth that they grow in the second row, like in sharks. For some, this feature does not cause trouble, while others often have to go to the dentist or simply remove these extra chewing surfaces.

2. The longest nose in the world

A lot of people are embarrassed by a long nose and visually try to reduce it with the help of properly selected glasses or a certain make-up. But Mehmet Ozyurek never understood why people consider such a feature of the body to be ugly. The man has the longest nose in the world, thanks to which he became famous. Its size is 8.8 cm.

3. The woman with the longest beard

It's no secret that women also grow facial hair. This annoys many, and by means of modern cosmetology, they get rid of vegetation. Vivien Wheeler noticed that she was not only getting unwanted hairs above her upper lip, but she was also starting to grow a beard. The woman decided to stop shaving her face in 1993. During this time, the hair grew by more than 30 cm.

4. The woman with the longest eyelashes

The fact that for many women is only a cherished dream, but for the Chinese woman Yu Jianxia is a reality. She did nothing on purpose, but the length of her eyelashes is more than 12 centimeters. According to her, it does not cause any discomfort to her.

5. Schmid-Fraccaro syndrome

There are people whose eyes look like a cat even without lenses. All because of the narrowed pupil. This is not the effect of some psychotropic drugs, but a genomic pathology caused by the presence of a small extra chromosome in the human karyotype.

6. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

Harry Turner could be the main character in a superhero movie. And it's all about its anatomical features: excessive elasticity of the skin. This is a disease that affects the connective tissues. People with this feature can pull back the skin by more than 10 cm.

7. African American women - albinos

People - albinos are not so rare. These people differ from us in even greater whiteness of skin, hair, and eyes. But your eyes will definitely linger on a person with this deviation if you realize that he is also an African American.

8. Longest tongue

Not everyone can reach their nose with their tongue. But for Chanel Tapper, it's just fun. The girl has long ceased to be offended by requests to show her tongue and reach out to the tip of her nose. The thing is that the length of her organ of taste is almost 10 centimeters.

9. Absence of wisdom teeth

Many of us suffer from wisdom teeth in adulthood. Someone deletes them immediately so that there are no problems later. And there are those (and this is almost 20% of people) who do not know such worries. The reason lies in the fact that they are born and live all their lives without distant teeth. This pathology is associated with the presence of special genes.

10. Dextrocardia

A fairly common anomaly in which the heart is on the right side. The chances of being born with such an anomaly are 1 in 12,000. It does not cause any problems for people, does not affect health, and usually does not require any medical intervention.
