Chances are, you'll hear Jodie Parks before you see her. When you do see her, the first thing that you will probably notice about her is the crown that she wears proudly. And if, by chance, you make it that close to Jodie without hearing what her famous talent is, the words "Burping Queen" on that crown might give it away.

When you hear the awesome rumbling belch that comes out of this little mom's mouth, it might leave you dazed. After hearing it in person, I was so astounded that almost forgot all the things I wanted to ask her. It's no wonder that Jodie landed the Guinness Book of World Records' loudest female burper in the world, and it's a feat she's pretty darn proud of.

It's something you have to hear to believe. If you have your earplugs ready, click on the Featured Video tab to listen to the Burp Queen's 104.1 decibal burp, as well as my own weak-sauce attempt.
