The Intriguingly Mysterious Story of Sydney Smith, The Giraffe-Necked Woman
Rings Don’t Lengthen Necks
Sydney insists that her neck has grown longer than it was years back, despite not wearing the bands having taken part of the length away. She’s always had a long neck, dating back to middle school when she acknowledged being compared to a giraffe.
Dr. Jonathan Nissanoff, an orthopedic surgeon in Southern California, rejected her claims in 2014. He noted that Sydney began as an adult when her bones had finished “growing.” All she was accomplishing by wearing the coils was tugging at her skin and altering her posture. He stated that removing them would bring her neck back to its original size.
