In short

LuLu Lotus achieved the world title after demonstrating her ability inside a soundproofed facility at Aercoustics Engineering Ltd. in Mississauga. By keeping her mouth closed and manipulating her throat muscles, she controls airflow through her nose to dictate pitch and rhythm, which Guinness World Records likened to a bird call. During the official measurement on June 3, 2022, she performed the theme song from *The Godfather*. Lotus has noted that she may attempt to surpass her own measurement in the future.

Over the internet, we have seen all kinds of records now. Among such witty talents, one such talent belongs to LuLu Lotus. Her unusual talent earned her a place in the

Guinness World Records for blowing a 44.1-decibel whistle using her nose. Guinness World Records terms it the loudest nose whistle in the world.

LuLu first discovered her skill when she was just seven years old as a way to play pranks on her teachers and other students. LuLu said everyone used to scramble to pinpoint the source of the mysterious whistling sound, with one of the teachers even venturing into the hallway, convinced that it was coming from outside.

What makes it even more interesting is that she can actually create melodious sounds using her nose. By using her throat muscles to control the flow of air, she allows sound to escape through her nose when her mouth is closed. Guinness World Records compares the sound to that of a bird call, which also has approximately a similar decibel level.

Who'd have thought what started as a childhood prank…
