When examined by a Guinness World Record official in May 2000, Davidson had 462 piercings, with 192 in her face alone. By 9 August 2001 when she was re-examined she was found to have 720 piercings. As of 2003, she had more piercings in her genitalia than in any other part of the body – 500 in all, externally and internally.
