జుట్టు పొడెక్కువున్న టీనేజర్

ఒకప్పుడు ఆడపిల్లలకు జుట్టు ఎంత ఎక్కువుంటే అంత అందంగా ఉంటారని నమ్మకం. ఇప్పుడు క్రాఫింగ్లతో జుట్టు సైజు తగ్గుతూ వస్తోంది. కానీ ఉక్రెయిన్కు చెందిన ఓ యువతి పొడవాటి జట్టుతో జాతీయ రికార్డు సాధించింది. 235 సెంటీమీటర్లు(రెండు మీటర్లపైనే) పొడవుగా జుట్టును పెంచింది 15 ఏళ్ల ఒలినా కొర్జెన్యూక్. ఆమె 165 సెంటిమీటర్ల ఎత్తుంటే తన కంటే పొడవుగా కేశాలను పెంచింది. ప్రస్తుతం గిన్నీస్ రికార్డు కోసం ప్రయత్నిస్తోంది.

పొడవైనా కేశాలతో ఆకట్టుకుంటున్న ఒలినా

ఇప్పటివరకు ఆ దేశంలో 135 సెంటిమీటర్ల పొడవున్న జుట్టే రికార్డు. ప్రస్తుతం ఆ రికార్డుని తన పేరున లిఖించుకుంది ఒలినా. విశేషమేంటంటే గత ఆరు నెలల కాలంలోనే 50 సెంటిమీటర్ల జుట్టును పెంచింది. సాధారణంగా బ్లాండీ హెయిర్(పట్టు వర్ణంలోని జుట్టు) ఇంత పొడవు పెరగదని ఒలినా హెయిర్ స్టైలిస్ట్ యూరీ తెలిపారు.

ఒలినా జుట్టు అంత సులభంగా పెరగలేదు. రోజూ దీనికి తగిన జాగ్రత్తలు పాటించింది. జుట్టును శుభ్రపరచుకునే దగ్గరి నుంచి దువ్వడం, చిక్కుతీసుకునే వరకు ఒలినా తల్లి మర్యానా సాయంచేసేది. వెంట్రుకలను శుభ్రపరచడానికే 30 నిమిషాలు పడితే, జడ వేయడానికి 40 నిమిషాల కంటే ఎక్కువ సమయం పడుతుంది.

"నాకు మూడేళ్లప్పుడు ఒకే ఒక్కసారి జుట్టు కత్తిరించుకున్నాను. అప్పటినుంచి ఇంతవరకు కత్తిరించలేదు. సాధారణంగా క్రైస్తవ సంప్రదాయం ప్రకారం తల్లిదండ్రులు వారి పిల్లల వెంట్రుకలు కత్తిరిస్తారు. కానీ నాకు అలా చేయలేదు. నాకు నా జుట్టు అంటే ఎంతో ఇష్టం దీన్ని ఎప్పటికీ కత్తిరించను" -- ఒలినా కొర్జెన్యూక్

డిసెంబరు 2018 నాటికి 170.5 సెంటిమీటర్లు పొడవున్న జుట్టుతో భారత్కు చెందిన నిలాన్షీ పటేల్ గిన్నిస్ రికార్డుకెక్కింది. 235 సెంటిమీటర్ల పొడవుతో ఆ రికార్డును అధిగమించిన ఒలినా గిన్నిస్ ఘనతకు ఎంతో దూరంలో లేదు.

I was very thin back then, just 23 years old, and even more so after a war. So, well I kept it for all of these 37 years with me, always considering it a kind of trophy of war that consoled a little the pain of defeat, the sorrow for fallen friends, those that were no longer."

So I began to think of this woman's pain, the pain of this whole family, her parents who went on to die, having lost their son. All of this led me to decide in December (2018) that I was going to travel to England, to give it to them personally."

STORYLINE:
Nearly 37 years after Argentina and Britain fought a war over the Falklands, veterans and relatives of those who died say that the recovery of certain objects taken as war trophies has helped heal their scars.
Jorge Altieri lost an eye and part of his brain in a blast during the 12 June, 1982 battle for Mount Longdon, two days before fighting stopped.
The helmet that saved his life was recently returned to him, decades after he lost it on the battlefield.
Having the treasured object by his side is still a novelty, Altieri says, adding: "I use it as a kind a teddy bear, close to me".
In a parallel tale of reconciliation, Argentine veteran Diego Carlos Arreseigor announced earlier this month that he is planning to return the blood-stained helmet of a fallen British soldier to his relatives.
The owner of the helmet, Alexander Shaw, was killed at the age of 25 in the same Mount Longdon battle.
Arreseigor explains he picked up the helmet from a pile of discarded equipment and hid it from a British soldier by keeping it under his jacket.
"I kept it these 37 years, always considering it a trophy of war, a sort of consolation for the loss and the pain of so many fallen friends," he says.
Some years ago, he became curious about who had worn it and noticed a name marked on the inside.
Arreseigor eventually found out Shaw's identity and learned he had been a victim of Argentine artillery.
The veteran now hopes to return the helmet to Shaw's sister, Susan, in April or May.
For Altieri, having his helmet again has helped him find similar closure.
After the war's ceasefire was declared on 14 June, 1982, his helmet was taken to London by a British parachutist who had picked it up from a heap of military objects.
When the parachutist passed away, it was kept by his family until it was put up for auction four years ago.
At the time, Altieri offered about 520 US dollars (400 pounds), but a British man who collects war objects paid twice that amount and the veteran failed to convince him to sell.
"He'd say: 'Even if the Queen comes asking for it, I won't give it away,'" Altieri recalls.
Some days ago, however, the helmet briefly went up for auction again on eBay for about 13,000 US dollars (10,500 pounds).
When it was taken off the site, Altieri feared that he had lost it for good until he heard the news: An anonymous Argentine entrepreneur had bought it for him.
Altieri now hopes to display it at home before donating it to a Falklands war museum, so people can see it and learn about the Argentina soldiers' experiences.
Argentina lost the war for the South Atlantic archipelago after its troops embarked on an ill-fated invasion in 1982, an international humiliation that claimed the lives of 649 Argentines and 255 British soldiers.
It still claims the islands that it calls Las Malvinas, while Britain says the Falklands are a self-governing entity under its protection.
After decades of tense relations, bilateral relations have experienced a thaw, helped by a deal that allowed a multinational team of experts to exhume and identify the remains of dozens of fallen Argentine soldiers.
