Alaska woman’s nearly 3-inch mouth gape breaks world record

An Alaska woman had her massive mouth measured by a dentist and broke a Guinness World Record with her 2.98-inch gape.

Ketchikan resident Marie Pearl Zellmer Robinson said she always knew she had a large mouth, but hadn’t considered it might be a world record until she saw a video of the previous record-holder, Samantha Ramsdell, whose mouth gape was measured at 2.56 inches in 2021.

I just watched the videos a few times. I’m like, ‘Huh, that’s funny. I could fit that kind of stuff in my mouth too! Hey, I wonder if I can beat her,'” Robinson told Guinness World Records.

Robinson’s dentist measured her mouth gape at 2.98 inches, earning her the title for the largest mouth gape (female).

“I’ve always kind of known I had a big mouth,” she told the Ketchikan Daily News. “I talk a lot, and apparently I do have a physically big mouth, but we never really did anything about it. It was always just kind of a joke that I could fit two, you know, three and a half Jenga blocks in my mouth, type of concept, when you’re kids.”
