Yesterday on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Guillermo made the Guinness Book of World Records for wearing the Most Ugly Christmas Sweaters at one time. That number is 25 and by the 18th one, things turned ugly for the ABC late night sidekick. The normally happy guy was anything but buried under all of that cotton and wool and whatever else goes into making those wearing works of arts.
After the 24th sweater was managed to be put on him, it was time for the final one to be placed on him on the stage. He could barely move his upper and looked like a colorful mummy all wrapped up like that.
The best moment of the night came after Jimmy Kimmel laughed at him. Guillermo told him, “Can I tell you something? You don’t pay me enough for this sh!t!” The security guard normally grins and bear it, but this challenge proved too much for the cutest guy in late night. You can’t blame him, think how hot you are in just one sweater. Now imagine that feeling with 25 of them over your torso. It would literally make you hot under the collar…and every where else.
On a positive note, this is the second time he has been in Guinness’ book. The first time was back in April 2008 when he wore 100 pairs of underwear simultaneously. What will Jimmy Kimmel do to him next? Most socks? Most T-shirts? Most pants? Most necklaces? I guess we will have to wait to find out. That is if Guillermo is willing to do something like this again.
The Gay family in LaGrangeville, NY have something to be gay about because they once again are the winners of Guinness Book of World Records title for Most Lights on a Residential Property. They were beat out last year by a man in Australia, but since he moved his light display to a mall this year, they were able to take back the title.
They had some help from Ritz Crackers who supplied them with a light display of around 200,000 lights, bringing their total to 601,736 lights. Not only is their house lit up, if you drive by you can hear the music it is synced to on a FM radio station. So at least their neighbors have one less reason to hate them. Another reason why their neighbors have a reason to like them is that they have a donation box at the end of their driveway for people to donate money to local charities. Now if the other residents can get past all of those lights keeping them up all night, all would be OK with The Gays!
Shaq posed with a replica of the tallest man on record and the 7’1″ former basketball player actually looks average sized for once. How tall was Robert Wadlow? He stood at 8’11”, nearly 2 feet taller than Shaquille O’Neal, which is why he looks so little.
Whoever thought that anyone could make the giant personality look little, but that is exactly what the Guinness Book of World Records’ Tallest Man did, and I love it. Because if I were standing next to Shaq that is how I would look as compared to him. Nice for him to finally know what the rest of the world feels like when they pose for a photo with him.
BTW on a different note, is that something in his pocket or is that him? You know, I can’t stop staring at his crotch ever since I saw him tell Meredith Vieira last week that is true what they say about a man’s shoe size!
If you think your over zealous neighbor decorated their house with one too many Christmas lights, that ain’t nothing as compared to the Australian man who just entered the Guinness Book of World Records for his light display. David Richards strung 1,194,380 lights to make kids and kids at heart feel very happy this holiday season. The Australian father did this magnificent display to raise money for the charity SIDS and Kids ACT that helped him through a tough time back in 2002.
The good news for his neighbors is that he didn’t decorate his house (as in years past), but a mall. Back when he did his home he only used half as many lights. I think what he did is so much more spectacular with twice as many LEDs. Don’t you wish your mall would hire him to make it just as beautiful?
Colin Jones is in the Guinness Book of World Record for wearing the Most Neckties at Once. So how many was he wearing when he took the title on September 26th? He has 260 of them wrapped around his neck and his students were the ones who put them on him. The teacher has accumulated a lot of ties in his 30 year tenure and his students thought that he had enough to earn him a World Record. Well, his students are really smart because turns out he does.
So if you are wondering what to get him for Christmas? I think a tie clip would be nice, but a necktie would be nicer. This way he can he beat his own record if need be!
