His Afro is so massive, it’s in the Guinness Book of World Records! |

Alan Edward Labbe’s Afro is so groovy, that it’s a Guinness World Record holder. The Massachusetts resident’s curly top measures 5.75″ in height, 8.5″ in width, and boasts a circumference of 5′ .75″.
How large is that? The Jackson 5 dreamed their hair could get that high at the height of their careers. Shack finds it a crime, he couldn’t compare to Alan. Bob Ross would think it is so beautiful; he would paint a tree on it somewhere. LMFAO’s Redfoo would sing Sexy and I Know It to the ‘do! And Questlove will want to get to Roots of it.
Seriously, how beautiful his that head of hair? Now, I want to know what the key to his locks is. How does he tame that mane? I bet it has to be a chore, but it is well worth it because it totally works on him.
Labbe isn’t the only record holder in the 60th anniversary edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, there are many others. You can see what and who else made the book that is on sale now for less than $30. Not a bad price! You should totally check it out because there might be a record you could break just like Cindy Brady and George Jefferson tried to do on their shows back in the days when Afros were all the rage.
And probably about the time Labbe started growing out his precious Afro. To see the male with the Largest Afro in all his glory, then click here!

Would you pay $169 for a hot dog? |

The Guinness World Book of Records has added a new hot dog to its pages. Tokyo Dog in Seattle has created a wiener that is so expensive, it costs a record breaking $169. What makes it so expensive? The foot long dog called the Juuni Ban “contains smoked cheese bratwurst, butter Teriyaki grilled onions, Maitake mushrooms, Wagyu beef, foie gras, shaved black truffles, caviar and Japanese mayonnaise, all served up in a brioche bun.” Sounds yummy to you? Then call the food truck two weeks in advance if you want to try it. All proceeds from the world’s most expensive hot dog go to the American Red Cross.
Since I am from NYC, I will stick with the boring old sauerkraut and mustard. What do you like on your red hot?

Meet the new furriest pussy! |

There is a new very furry cat in the Guinness Book of World Records and her name is Sophie. She is a 2-year-old rescue cat from Oceanside, California and the fur on her tail measures 25.68 centimetres (10.11 inches). That beats out the last holder of the title by over an inch.
Sophie’s mom, Jami, acquired her one day when she was walking her dog and a man in a truck asked her if she wanted the kitten in the paperbag he was holding. She wasn’t sure if there really was one in there, but as soon as she got her hands on the bag she realized there was one inside. She originally intended to bring the kitten into the shelter, but after 30 minutes she was in love. How can you not love that face and long beautiful tail?
As the owner of a long haired kitty, I feel for Jami. I know what it is like to have fur all over the place and my baby’s fur is about half the length of Sophie’s.

There’s a World Record for most donated breast milk |

Alyse Ogletree had a lot, and I do mean a lot, of breast milk. So much so she had been donating it to the Mothers’ Milk Bank of North Texas. How much has she pumped out to them? According to KXAS she’s given them over a whopping 53,000 ounces, which is not twice but three times the previous record holder. An amount none of us can fathom.
Guinness World Records said she donated the milk from January 11, 2011 to March 25, 2014. So in just over three years she made a lot parents and babies very happy people, and her kids and husband very jealous.
I sincerely respect her for donating all of that milk because she could’ve made a lot money off of it. You know, because there are people who have fetish for that sort of thing, at least that is what I once heard on The Jerry Springer Show.

Arby’s created the longest commercial ever, it runs for 13 hours! |

Arby’s wanted to show you how they make their 13-Hour Smokehouse Brisket, so they made a 13 hour commercial to show us the whole process and I do mean whole. Instead of speeding through the over half day smoking, they shot it in real time. It is as interesting to watch as watching meat cook, oh wait!
Actually, it reminds me of the WPIX Yule Log, so it leaves me with a smile on my face. There is something just hypnotizing about it. And the most important thing is that it makes me want to try the sandwich and that is what a commercial is supposed to do.
BTW I wonder how long it took to upload this video to YouTube??? More time than it took to cook that Brisket.
