World Record – 34 Fingers and Toes

INDIA – In a Northern town, Uttar Pradesh, a baby boy was born with 34 fingers and toes. Akshat Saxena, 1, has fourteen fingers and twenty toes. As strange as it already may sound, it’s even weirder than he doesn’t have any thumbs. This is a rare genetic disorder known as polydactyl.

Before Akshat, a six year old Chinese boy held the world record with 15 fingers and 16 toes but holds the record again since Akshat had surgery. The doctors removed the excess fingers and are now trying to construct thumbs from the amputated fingers.

About Nicole Hawker

My favorite things to do is swimming, playing tennis and watch movies, TV shows and documentaries. I like to be aware of what's happening in the world and I have to admit that I'll never understand politicians. I design and build information systems for a living. The job pays well however it gets quite tiresome sometimes. I discovered two years ago that I have some kind of passion for writing so in 2010 I started this blog in hope that people will share a piece of their mind.
