The Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest got me into watching competitive eating contests. I would never enter because I can’t eat that much in one sitting.
However, if given the chance, I could eat 10 peppers in a row. I think most of us could. But how many of you could eat 10 Carolina Reaper peppers in one sitting? Not many. If they could, would they even want to? They wouldn’t.
But that is not Mitch Donnelly and Gregory Foster. So they competed to see who could eat 10 Carolina Reaper chilis the fastest. Who holds the Guinness World Records title? Foster did it in 33.15 seconds.
He didn’t get to celebrate immediately. That is because the pain kicked in even quicker and lasted a long, long time. Because as soon as the heat cooled down in his mouth, another hole felt the heat. Oh, to have the cameras rolling in the bathroom.
Anyone who has a cat will tell you they love their baby’s toe beans. However, they only have 18 to love.
Well, most cats, that is. Toby Henderson has more than that. So many more; the Michigan kitty made it into the Guinness World Records for having 28 of them. He ties Jake the Cat from Canada, who was the first to hold the record in 2002.
Toby was rescued by Delaney Henderson and her husband. They already have a cat with extra toe beans, and they were not necessarily looking for another Polydactyl.
Delaney says that she fell in love with Toby’s face at first. But when she found out about his extra toes, she knew it was meant to be.
So she adopted Toby, and now he and Connie, his sister, are the best of friends. And Delaney has a house full of love and toe beans!!!
I love watching massive amounts of dominoes topple down. However, I would never want to be a domino in that mix.
While that is me, 878 students, aged 17 and 18, on a trip to Oropesa del Mar, Spain, celebrating their graduation, decided to take part in the Guinness World Record on June 16th to become the new title holders of the Largest Human Air Bed (lilo) Dominoes.
Did they get a diploma, I mean, World Record? Yes, they did! And I am sure some of them used those air beds later on because they got awfully close to each other, breaking the record. Plus, the legal drinking age in Spain is 18. And you know there was plenty of drinking going on!!!
BTW those students beat the old record by 285 people. The previous 603 record holders did the same at the Tropical in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, back in 2016. What is it with Spain and human dominoes?
Would you ever be a human domino? I would if it was just me and two men!!!
Joshua Saunders is in the Guinness Book of World Records for Most kisses in 30 Seconds by a Pair. The Sun journalist kissed his girlfriend, Jenny Troy, on the cheek 146 times.
He actually kissed her more than that, but they explained, “Some kisses were deducted from the total for not fully pulling away from the face before the next kiss.”
Therefore, his record could easily be broken, and he wants you to do it!
Ferdinand Morellec is in the Guinness Book of World Records, and 13 seems to be his lucky number. The Frenchman spent 13 hours, 13 minutes, and 13 seconds standing barefoot on a Sadhu nail board.
This was something he has been preparing for for a while. He has been performing barefoot stunts for years.
The nail boards are used in yoga and spiritual activities, and can help reduce stress and alleviate symptoms of fatigue.
Ferdinand said: “I wanted to show that everyone, with the right mind and preparation, can do anything.”
Yes, you can. Although I don’t think I could do what he did. I step on one Lego, and I am in bed for the next 24 hours. So I would skip this challenge.
