While i was seraching for topics to see what i could make my first blog about I decided to make it about records because i guess get really curious when it comes to these kind of shocking accomplishments. For instance i think its really entertaining to see how many weird and discusting stuff people can do over the world. I dedicated some time to search for the most interesting ones on World guiness official website, it took me some time.. so chill out, take your time and i bet you wont regret reading the following, i hope you enjoy!

This is really sick, dont you think?
Ken Edwards of Glossop, Derbyshire, England ate 36 cockroaches in one minute on the set of The Big Breakfast, London, England on March 5, 2001. Cockroaches have lived unchanged for more than 320 million years. They are among the oldest fossil insects and are also among the most primitive living, winged insects. If a nuclear war broke out cockroaches would be the only living creatures to survive!
* I cant even imagine how somebody would volunteer to do something like this! if i would have tried this, as a result i would have thrown up no doubts about that, cause unlike him, i get creeped out by any type of insects especially cockroaches. It would be difficult for any cockroach hater to outcome his/her fear and dare to do this.. ew.

This should have been hard for the owner and the dog!
The world record for the most tennis balls held in the mouth by a dog at one time is five. Augie, a golden retriever owned by the Miller family in Dallas, Texas, USA, successfully gathered and held all five regulation-sized tennis balls on July 6, 2003
* Inspite the fact that its a dog, its still amazing that up to 5 tennis balls fit in his mouth, i cant even put my fist in mine, although i assume this dog's owner helped him, this must have taken some time.
Although its impressive, its nasty isnt it?
Lee Redmond (USA), who has not cut her nails since 1979,they have been growing and she has manicured them to reach a total length of 8.65 m (28 ft 4.5 in) as measured on the set of Lo show dei record in Madrid, Spain, on 23 February 2008.
*As soon as i read this article on the website, i knew i had to add it to my blog, its really hard to believe how somebody would let their nails grow SO long isnt it?. I know for a fact this was nothing easy , therefore  it took her alot of work to keep them healthy otherwise they would be all dirty and probably infected. I also suppose that during the process of making the record, her nails must have gotten stuck many times into things in her daily routine, how frustrating! I could never do this.


This might have caused some digestive problems..
Michel Lotito (aka Monsieur Mangetout) from Grenoble, France, has been eating metal and glass since 1959. Gastroenterologists have described his ability to consume 900 g (2 lb) of metal per day as "unique". Mangetout - Michel's nickname - literally translates as "eats everything". Michel says bananas and hard-boiled eggs make him sick.
* From the moment i read this i was literally in shock!, I think eating metal must cause a problem in his organism. Michel is indeed one wild and crazy person! dont you think? I'm sure about that.
I cant stop thinking about, how can it be possible to swallow metal? i would choke, wouldnt you? what do you think about this? Its honestly unbelievable..
Paddy must have dedicated lots of his time for this

The most push-ups using the backs of the hands in one hour is 1,940 and was set by Paddy Doyle (UK) at Stamina's Boxing Self Defence Gym in Erin Go Bragh Sports Centre, Birmingham, UK, on November 8, 2007.
*This is paddy in his workroom, after reading the text above you probably will be amazed of the huge number of pushups this guy accomplished worldwide, i cant find a downside for this record, he surely trains alot and works out many hours for him to been able to do this amount of pushups and additionally using the back of his hands!


Can you beat this record?
The longest time to hold your breath underwater is 18 min 32.59 sec and was achieved by Karoline Mariechen Meyer (Brazil) at the Racer Academy swimming pool, Florianopolis, Brazil, on 10 July 2009.
*The only reasonable explanation i could give about this, is that she has big lungs! and as a result she can hold her breath for many minutes, on the other hand i cant even hold my breath for 2 minutes.. lucky karoline.


MORE FACTS 
The ultimate in multi-layered tattooing is represented by the chainsaw juggling, unicycling, sword-swallowing Lucky Diamond Rich (Australia, born New Zealand), who has spent over 1,000 hours having his body modified by hundreds of tattoo artists. He began by having a full collection of colourful designs from around the world tattooed over his entire body. But not content with stopping there, Lucky next opted for a 100% covering of black ink, including eyelids, the delicate skin between the toes, down into the ears, and even his gums. He is now being tattooed with white designs on top of the black, and coloured designs on top of the white!

AMAZING RECORDS, watch!
