A 15-year-old boy from Uttar Pradesh, who has never cut his hair, has set the Guinness World Record for the longest hair on a male teenager. His hair at the time of the record was 130cm (4ft 3in), but it's grown since then and now measures 146cm (4ft 9.5in long). Sidakdeep Singh Chahal in Uttar Pradesh in India told James Reynolds how it felt to have a Guinness World Record. (Photo: Sidakdeep Singh Chahal, Credit: Parvinder Singh Chahal)
