Photos: Meet the 15 year old teen with the longest neck in the world


This is unbelievable.15 year old Fu Wengui (pictured above) has 10 vertebrae in his neck but doctors say most necks have 7 vertebrae. This neck of his causes him a lot of pains and makes it hard for Fu to walk. As a young boy he was diagnosed with Congenital Scoliosis and an abnormal chest frame which made his neck grow extra three inches. Congenital scoliosis is caused by the bones in the spine developing abnormally in the womb.
                 
"He always causes a stir when he's out. The vertebrae press on the nerves in his neck and make it difficult for him to walk." his dad, Genyou said
Fortunately for Fu, after his situation was made public, a Beijing-based charity agreed to finance a procedure and treatment. He will have corrective surgery that will hopefully reduce the length of his neck and ease the discomfort. see more photos after the cut...
