Franchesca just made the Guinness Book of World Records, but can you tell which animal is under all of that record breaking fur? Franchesca is an Angora Rabbit, and she has the Longest Fur for a Rabbit. How long? The two year’s old fur is 36.5 cm (14.37 inches) long. According to Guinness, that is the size of two length wise subway sandwiches. Imagine being the owner who has to groom all of that fur on the Best In Show Winner? To make matters worse for Dr Better Chu, Franchesca is the mother to 4 babies who look just like her when she was younger. So her record might not be long, like her fur, for the world because one of her offsprings might knock her out of book.
Now back to Franchesca, I wish someone who would make a stuffed animal of her, for her rabbit, I mean, rabid fans. Seriously, isn’t that fur ball just bunnderful?
We all grew up with the story of the Tortoise and the Hare. Well, there is a tortoise at the Adventure Valley Park in Brasside, Durham, UK, that could’ve won that race even if the hare didn’t take a nap. Bertie is so fast, he is now in the new edition of the Guinness Book of World Records for Fastest Tortoise in the World. How fast is he? He sprinted a 5.48m course set at a gradient of 1:12 in a speedy 19.59 seconds, destroying the record that had been held since 1977.
Proving once again that slow and steady still wins the race. Although this race took over 38 years to win.
BTW Bertie is a real pisser! Especially, when he gets so excited about getting his certificate for being the World’s Fastest Tortoise that he pees on his owner.

Two weeks ago, Alliance In Motion Global Inc. gathered 8,018 people in Manila, Philippines to create the Largest Human Smiley Face and together they landed themselves in the Guinness Book of World Records. If this world record doesn’t bring a big smile to your face, then I don’t know what will?
The only thing that is missing from it, is Forrest Gump running around the finished product telling reporters, “Sh!t happens!”
There is a Guinness Book of World Records title for Most Self-Portrait Photographs (Selfies) Taken in Three Minutes and Kim Kardashian isn’t the holder of it…yet. Believe it or not, The Rock claimed it yesterday at the London premiere of his new movie San Andreas. Dwayne Johnson took over 105 photos with the fans on the red carpet, but only that number counted towards the title. What were the requirements? He had to show “the full face and neck of participants being viewable and that the images were focused, with recognisable faces and no blurring.”
Congrats DJ on getting into the Guinness Book of World Records. I am so proud that I went to same college as him. See what you can accomplish if you go to the University of Miami!

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.
