Saddest world records

[Singularly Datarific]

Soooo, what are some of the most idiotic records people actually try to do?

 

[TK421]

One guy pogo-sticked over a mile in Antarctica.

Well, this isn't as sad or idiotic as it is disgusting, but there was a marathon a couple of days ago where I live, and one runner got a blister on his/her foot. He/she then submitted a picture of it to the Guiness Book of World Records and now holds the record for Largest Blister in the world. Wonderful.

 

[Julianking93]

Tiniest penis?

 

[MorsePacific]

Most anything eaten in any time. When did eating gross amounts of food become something note-worthy?

 

[RatRace123]

Fattest person.

There you go

I'd have to say most amount of texts in certain amount of time.

 

[Randoms]

I think I could win with this one. Most people doing the Eagle Drop at once.

 

[Kud]

Fattest person.

That one is just disgusting.

OT: most cockroaches eaten in one minute.

 

[Chewster]

The majority now are pointless, since it seems that people are content to make up their own freakish achievements rather then attempt the old, even if they no longer have anything remotely to do with athleticism or legitimate competition.

The Guinness Book of World Records has now become the Ripley's Believe It or Not of the competitive athletics world. It's amusing, but not especially inspiring.

 

[TheLastCylon]

Tallest/shortest person. Doesn't really take any skill, just good genetics.

 

[clankwise]

One guy pogo-sticked over a mile in Antarctica.

Actually that sounds kinda badass. Must have taken him along time to do that with pogo sticks moving 1/2 mile per hour.

 

[S.R.S.]

Theirs a clapping one but the guy that has it has roughly 10 records already. Mostly ones where their are no sense of accomplishment.

Smallest finger ?

The best one to try is longest sex.

 

[Allstar309]

One guy pogo-sticked over a mile in Antarctica.

Now THATS something to be proud of!

 

[Neonbob]

Longest finger/toe nails.
It's just fucking pointless, let your nails grow so long that you can't even eat with your hands.

You know why they do it?
They do it to be creepy as hell.
Think about that for a second. The nails they have are obviously only there so that people like this [http://www.neatorama.com/images/2006-08/longest-fingernails-world.jpg] can tap on your shoulder from five feet away.
And torture you with chalkboards.

I have to say the Longest Kiss records are incredibly stupid.
By the end of the thing, there is no way they can possibly feel their face, and their legs have to hurt.
Plus, the person who has to be there the entire time to validate the kiss makes the entire ordeal very freaky.

 

[rockingnic]

Hairiest family. Longest time with a nail in the head. Most compulsive swallower. Most children delivered. Most feet sniffed. Longest attack of hiccups. Heaviest twins. Fastest time to type to a million. Longest joke-telling marathon. Longest time trapped in a lift.

Here's the best one in my opinion: Most people crammed into a smart car... 13 girls!
