Man with widest mouth in the world enters record books

MEASURING over six and a half inches across, Francisco Domingo Joaquim officially has the widest mouth in the world.

The 20-year-old from Sambizanga in Angola has the unusual ability to fit an entire 330ml can of soda in his mouth, sideways.

Joaquim, also known as “Chiquinho”, recently appeared on an Italian TV show where he amazed crowds by placing and removing a can of coke from his mouth 14 times in under a minute.

After finding out that he would feature in the Book of Guinness World Records 2011, Chiquinho said that it was “a dream come true.”
