Akshat Saxena, a one year old Indian boy has earned himself a place in the world record after being born with 14 fingers and 20 toes beating a Chinese boy's previous record of 31 fingers and toes.
Though he has been operated and now has 10 fingers and 10 toes, his parents were shocked when they found out and after their family friend finally convinced them to enter his data on the internet, they discovered his name was already registered in the record book.
His condition termed polydactyly is a rare genetic condition that makes unborn babies grow extra fingers and toes, usually on the little finger side of the hand.
