The instrument with very long tubing is the tuba. Tubas typically have a coiled design that allows for a lengthy pathway for the air to travel, contributing to their deep and rich sound. The extensive tubing is what gives the tuba its low pitch, making it an essential part of brass ensembles and orchestras.
12 to 13 feet of metal tubing
If you uncoil all of a regular french horn's tubing, in total it would be 12 feet long!
There are two factors. One is that the length of the tubing required for the horn would, if straightened out, make a very long and unwieldy horn (you know that horn they use in the Ricola commercials?), so they curl it up instead. The other is just to give it a decorative shape.
The French Horn is made of brass tubing. Basicly, the Horn is a chunk of of brass tubing.
Simply put, it's the part on the very top where the mouthpiece goes into. Sometimes, it's a different color/finish than the rest of the horn and is usually a little bit thicker than the tubing directly after it.

The tuba is an instrument known for its very deep-sounding horn. As the largest brass instrument, it produces rich, low tones that provide the bass foundation in orchestras and brass ensembles. Its wide bell and long tubing contribute to its distinctive, resonant sound. The tuba is essential in various musical genres, including classical, jazz, and marching bands.
as long as you can, but eventually your lips will become very numb.
Similar to the modern version, but with less tubing and no valves.
