Years ago I would be diligent in reading their yearly books. After awhile, the records were getting a bit out there lol Would you want to be in the Guinness Book of World Records? If so, what for? Would it be in Nature climbing a mountain. Extraordinary feat such as doing Iron Man. Physical & beauty, longest nails or mustache. I would pick something that would involve Nature, something I would want to do anyways. I don’t care for the ones who can eat X amount of something in X amount of minutes! I can just imagine the tummyache lol Angela ash Bob Emerald emily lainee @lbj @marti PGen98 razor1911 scooter sharon spg T.T. twistedpingu

I am only related to the news that comes in newspaper about new records. Even today, there is a lot of hype when a new record is created.

The records seem to be getting more weird & I can't think of a valid reason for me to even try for it. I got a life & plenty of things going on!

I think the book is interesting. I don't think I'd ever be in it or care to be. A lot of the records are for stupid, senseless things.

I recently borrowed the 2021 Guinness Book of World Records from the library. Appropriately enough they highlighted records broken during the pandemic which I imagine was a great motivator for some since a lot of people were on lock down for a while. Folks had been itching for things to do so why not break a record!

For my country folks or chefs, it's cook-a-thon record they are going for in Guinness Book of World Records. A lady known as Hilda Baci now holds the record longest cooking marathon by an individual for 93 hours and 11 minutes.

They used to be a yearly Christmas present . However, I think the last one I got was either 2007 or 2008... after that, I moved on to other things!

I wouldn't mind getting into the book, even it meant my record to be broken one day. I have also visited some Guinness museums, they are neat to see.
