Wacky World Records

Hey guys!

I got reeaalllyyy bored so I decided to post some world records... but not ANY old records, oh no, these are WACKY world records, for example,

Charles Osborne hiccuped for a total of 69 years!

Anyway, the list...

1. The Guinness World Book Of Records has a record for itself being the book most often stolen out of public libraries.

2. The world record for the longest time Pogo-Stick jumping is 41 hours!

3. The longest kiss lasted 30 hours, 59 minutes.

4. The longest time spent standing on one foot is 76 hours, 40 minutes!

5. The record for the most scorpions (Live) held in someones mouth at one time was 20.

6. The loudest burp was 112 decibels (Think of it as the sound of a jet aeroplane.)

7. The oldest known living thing is a Bristlecone Pine called Methuselah. It is located in the White Mountains on the California - Nevada border. The tree is estimated to be 4767 years old!!

8. The shortest war in history was fought between England and Zanzibar. It had lasted for only 38 minutes when Zanzibar surrendered!

9. The worlds youngest parents were just Eight and Nine years old and lived in 1910.

10. Strongman John Evans holds the world record for the heaviest weight balanced only on his head. He balanced 101 bricks that weighed 188 kg (416 lb) !

Thats all for now but I will be back with more! Also, I'm planning on doing a competition (Of something that the public can help me decide with.)! So stay tuned!

Over and out,
