Record nails broken in crash

A SALT Lake City woman who was in the Guinness Book of World Records for her long fingernails has had them broken off in a car accident.

Lee Redmond sustained serious but non-life threatening injuries in the accident earlier this week.

Redmond had been the Guinness record holder, with nails that hadn’t been cut since 1979. Her nails measured a total of more than 28ft last year, with the longest nail on her right thumb at 2ft11, according to the Guinness website.
