        Here is what Wikipedia has to say:

        Lee Redmond (born February 2, 1941) holds the record in the Guinness World Records for longest fingernails on both hands. She lives in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Enquirer features her every few years and keeps track of the progress of her nails.
        Redmond started growing her nails in late 1978-early 1979 and although she had originally planned to have them cut off on November 22, 2006 (as she said on her guest appearances on a couple of talk shows), she chose to keep her nails after all. She has recently made appearances on CBS News as well as the Ripley's Believe It or Not! museum. Her most recent appearance was for a fundraiser for the local Salt Lake City fire department, where it was reported her nails were an average of 34–35 inches in length.
        A great-grandmother, Redmond currently resides in Salt Lake City, where she enjoys riding bikes with her younger sister Sierra, who has the normal nails. She states that while certain activities such as putting on a heavy coat can be troublesome, she manages her daily life without much difficulty. On the Guinness TV feature, she has been shown driving a car, vacuuming, doing dishes, and giving haircuts to her grandchildren. She adds that her long nails don't even interfere with her care of her husband, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease.
        On February 10, 2009, her record-setting nails were broken off when she was ejected from a car in a four-car pile-up in Holladay, Utah. Her injuries were serious, but not life threatening.

          I guess it's not the grossest world record somebody has won(?).

            She started growing her nails when my car was manufactured.

              Only the people in the olds factory were doing something productive.

                Her nails are disgusting. Hope she recovers from her accident.

                  If you think they look bad,you should see some of the others. They are nice,straight and smooth in comparison.

                  I seen it on the news that she had an accident. I don't know if she is starting over again. If she broke the world record,she should be happy and leave it at that.

                    In a Huffington Post story published on September 3, 2009 it was stated that: "Lee Redmond, who lost the fingernails in February, says it's now much easier to do things and her hands seem to fly with the weight of the nails gone. The 68-year-old won't grow her nails out again, saying it took 30 years the first time and she may not live for another 30.

                        That must have been one of a multitude of problems she had to encounter. lol

                          glad to hear she's not doing it again. Now she can do some serious detailing.
