The nose is a very important organ of the human body. It is thanks to him that we are able to breathe, catch and distinguish all kinds of smells. In addition, it is one of the most important components of the appearance - the nose can radically change the overall impression of a person's appearance.
That is why almost all young people are extremely concerned about its size and shape, and many are very unhappy with these parameters. Someone's own nose seems too small, and someone - just huge; to someone he will seem too snub-nosed, and someone will complain that his nose is crooked … But what is especially noteworthy is that the person who actually has the largest nose in the world does not experience any complexes about this. The same can be said about his "colleagues in misfortune" from the distant past: no one was ashamed of their physiology, on the contrary, they made it a virtue and the subject of benevolent jokes and funny stories.
The biggest nose in the world: photos will not leave you indifferent
When mentioning long noses, most people, of course, remember Pinocchio (or Pinocchio). According to many, this person possessed the most remarkable olfactory organ of all possible (that's why he is a fairy-tale hero!), And therefore no one is destined to surpass him in this field. Huge mistake! In the eighteenth century, far enough for a modern person, there lived and there was one German gentleman - a nobleman by blood - and his name was Gustav von Albach. His fiefdom was the city of Bremen. He had a really very big nose, the photo of which still amaze people all over the world.
By the way, Gustav was never ashamed of this peculiarity of his. On the contrary, he was proud of her. Due to the fact that he had the largest nose in the world, he did not need masks for masquerades, and the children genuinely loved him for his gentle humor and many funny jokes and invented stories. Yes, and adult comrades admired Gustav for his gentleness and ability to laugh at himself.
To date, the largest nose in the world has a Turkish citizen named Mehmed Ozyurek. True, he is far from the legendary von Albach - his nose reaches only 88 millimeters in length. Another thing is that it is constantly growing and over time can increase by several centimeters. Now Mehmed is a little over sixty years old, and therefore he has a chance to break his own record!
The reason why Mr. Ozyurek entered the Guinness Book of Records is also very interesting. It turns out that he owes the size of his nose to one extremely raredisease - rhinophyma. With it, the skin part of the olfactory organ is constantly increasing.
By the way, according to some (though still unverified) data, Mehmed may soon say goodbye to his title: the biggest nose in the world, it turns out, does not belong to him, but to a Pakistani named Fayzan Agha. He overtakes Ozyurek by almost four centimeters!
Germany has been dreaming of getting into the Book of Records for more than a decade, and every five years it arranges a special competition in which all owners of overly large noses can take part. Not so long ago, a man and a woman won it, the length of the olfactory organs of which, respectively, was 127 and 102 millimeters.
