A Utah woman suffered a devastating loss following a car crash Tuesday night – her world record-length fingernails.

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Lee Redmond had not cut her fingernails since 1979 and the total length of her nails combined reached almost 30 feet. Guinness says Redmond’s longest nail was her thumb which measured in at 2 feet 11 inches.

But according to the Salt Lake City Tribune, Redmond’s nails were broken off on Tuesday when her SUV was involved in a four car crash outside of Salt Lake City, Utah and she was ejected from the vehicle.

Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Lieutenant Don Hutson told the paper that Redmond was taken to the hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries.

According to the Deseret News, Redmond was the passenger in an SUV that hit the side of another vehicle Tuesday afternoon in Holladay, Utah. That caused the second vehicle to strike a third, and force Redmond’s SUV onto the curb, through a chain link fence and into a fourth vehicle.

The 67-year-old Redmond had previously said she turned down $10,000 from a Japanese television station to cut the nails.
