I got the Guiness World Records Book for 2006 (I get one for every year) yesterday, and it was extremely entertaining.

Have you ever set/tried to set any type of record (Maybe even a World Record?), what was it in? I haven't, but I've always wanted to. Some of the records are so bizarre. :)

When I was 14 I tried to beat the record for high jump in my school, but I could only get 1.50 metres and the record was 1.60m. I am pretty sure the guy who set that record had wings :(

The Red Bull commercials are kinda frightening. Like the one where all these clothes and giggling and "oooohs" came from the sky and the bird starting drinking Red Bull.

i was more flexible than everybody else in middle school. we had to do this sit and reach thing. you sit on your butt and put your feet at at 90 deg. angle and have them flat on a metal box. then you overlap your hands and bend as far forward as you can. the highest number you could get was a 50 inch. i could go to 52. marching band makes you really flexable :)

This reminds me of that Brady Bunch episode where they try and set the record for the longest time on a seesaw, or teetor-totter, whatever you call `em.....:shifty:

I've never tried to set a World Record. Because unless it happens by chance, it just isn't going to happen. =)
