A chain of facial hair measuring 45.99 m (150 ft 10.75 in) was formed at The Gaslight Social in Casper, Wyoming, USA, on 11 November 2022 by competitors at the US National Beard and Moustache Championships.

The chain of beards was formed by 69 individuals, each with facial hair measuring longer than 20 cm (7.8 in). The attempt was witnessed by a notarized surveyor, who measured the chain between the noses of the first and last competitors. The competitors stood side by side and linked their whiskers using hair clips.
