Italian man Francesco Domingo Joaquim owns a 17 cm long mouth, claiming the title of "Man with the World's Biggest Mouth" and being entered into the Guinness World Records. He can fit a whole can of Coke in his mouth, leaving people in awe.

According to the British Daily Mail on October 27th, the competition for the title of "Man with the Biggest Mouth" was held in Rome, where participants had to put various strange things like sausages and coffee cups into their mouths to show just how big their mouths were. When the 20-year-old Joaquim stuffed an entire can of Coke into his mouth, other competitors had to admit defeat, followed by cheers from the crowd.

The report said that Joaquim also performed his "special skill" for the audience: taking a can of Coke in and out of his mouth 14 times within one minute. Two years ago, the Guinness editorial committee knew about Joaquim, this "master", through online videos. This time, while winning the championship, he was also recorded in history. Joaquim said that being written into the Guinness World Records was like "a dream come true".
