YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — A mother in Myanmar says her baby girl’s 12 fingers and 14 toes have been no disadvantage – her grip may even be stronger than normal – and now she’s grasping for a Guinness record.
Phyo Min Min Soe, 26, knew her girl Le Yati Min had a little something extra since nearly the moment she was born.
“I asked the nurses whether my kid was born complete with hands and legs,” says her mother. “They replied that the baby even has more than she needs.”
Born with 12 fingers and 14 toes, Le may be the most “digitally enhanced” person in the world. Now, the 16-month-old girl’s family in impoverished Myanmar is seeking a Guinness World Record to prove it.
