This is some serious facial hair...David Traver, 43, of Anchorage, Alaska, won the 2009 World Beard and Moustache Championships on his home court over the weekend. Traver won best in show for his 20.5inch beard and also won the freestyle competition. For the contest, his beard was dyed multiple colors and woven to look like a snowshoe.
The win, over 140 other contestants from around the world, earned him a gold pan and salmon fishing trip. He now plans to shave for charity, with a donation going to Covenant House. Afterward, he plans to grow a mustache.
