Photos of the teenage with the longest neck..

This 15 year old Chinese boy, Fu Wengui,  has 10 vertebrae, as against the 7 vertebrae doctor said most mammals have.. 

As a growing child, Fu he was diagnosed with Congenital Scoliosis (Congenital scoliosis is a spinal deformity in which a sideways curvature of the spine is caused by a defect present at birth. The spine may also be rotated or twisted, pulling the ribs along with it to form a multidimensional curve) and an abnormal chest frame which made his neck grow extra three inches. This causes him a lot of pain and makes it hard for Fu to walk.

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 organization agreed to finance a procedure and treatment that will correct this deformity.
