Longest moustache (ever): India's Ram Singh Chauhan was officially measured on the set of the Italian TV show Lo Show dei Record in Rome, Italy and in total measured 4.29 m (14 ft) in March, 2010.

Ram has never cut his magnificent moustache - "apart from trimming around the lip area" and it continues to grow to this day. Ram is also pictured with our longest beard record holder Sarwan Singh from Canada.
