How far can you open your mouth?
What's the distance between your top and bottom teeth when your mouth is open? For me, it's two inches exactly.

7. I don't know how far I can do it, my lips are really chapped and it hurts
to open my mouth.

My lips chap so easy. Poor, poor lips. :(

12. Just short of 3-1/2 inches
Edited on Mon May-09-05 11:05 PM by MrMonk
and came near to dislocating my jaw. In a more relaxed arrangement: 2-1/2.

Is this part of a bet to see how many people you can get to measure their open mouths?

Tried it again with my jaw in different positions. Most of the time I stretched to about 2-1/2, though I did hit 3-1/2 one more time. Do you need an answer tonight?

18. I think that it's more a function of the length of the jaw
than the size of the mouth.

19. Hmmm...Mine looks like about 1 and 1/2 inches...maybe less...
Odd considering how VERY EASY it is for me to put my foot in my mouth, normally!! I'm always saying, what's the flavor of my foot today? Hmmm? I don't think I've demonstrated that here for all you good people, but at work! Well! That's another story...best not told, lol...

I've been told that I have a small mouth physically, but a big mouth, literally.


:silly:
