The Guinness World Records book is one of the most popular books in the world. To practice, and to be included in it, you need to accomplish something really unusual and remarkable. The book records more than 47 thousand over 47,000 world records. Today, I will meet you with 15 bright shares with you and 15 of the most notable cases included in the book.

1. The world's biggest twins

Billy and Benny McCrary were the world's biggest twins. They were born on August 6th, 1953, in Hendersonville, North Carolina, and weighed over 10 pounds (4.54 kg) each at birth. As they grew up, it was clear that the McCrary brothers were going to be much larger than the average person. The McCrary twins had a genetic condition called acromegaly, which causes excessive growth hormone production. This condition caused them to continue growing throughout their lives, and they eventually reached a height of over 7 feet (2.13 m) and a combined weight of over 1,300 pounds (ca. 590 kilograms).

Sadly, both Billy and Benny McCrary passed away at a relatively young age. Billy died in 1979 at the age of 26, while Benny passed away in 2001 at the age of 48. However, their legacy as the world's biggest twins lives on, and they continue to be remembered for their larger-than-life personalities and impressive accomplishments.

2. Rich cat

Blackie the cat is known as the wealthiest cat in the world, with a fortune estimated at $12 million. This fortune was inherited by Blackie after her wealthy owner, Ben Rea, passed away in 1988. Ben Rea was a successful antique dealer from the UK, who had no surviving relatives at the time of his death. In his will, he left his entire estate to Blackie, with the condition that the cat would be taken care of for the rest of her life by the person who provided for her. Following Rea's death, Blackie was taken in by a close friend, who had promised to care for her for the rest of her life. The friend, named Val, reportedly spent a large portion of the inheritance on caring for Blackie, providing her with the best food, medical care, and living conditions.

3. Cardstacker

Bryan Berg is a renowned cardstacker who has made a name for himself by constructing amazing structures using only playing cards. His talent for cardstacking has earned him a place in the Guinness World Records, and he has even authored a book on the subject called "The Amazing Book of Guinness World Records: Cardstacking". One of the most impressive structures that Bryan has created is a replica of the world-famous Venetian Macao casino, which he constructed using over 200,000 playing cards. The structure took him over 44 days to build and was over 10 feet tall. This incredible feat earned him a place in the Guinness World Records, which he proudly shares in his book.

4. The largest bubble gum bubble

Chad Fell is a name that is often associated with the world record for blowing the largest bubble gum bubble. In 2004, Chad set the record by blowing a bubble that measured 20 inches in diameter. This incredible feat earned him a place in the Guinness World Records and made him a legend among bubble gum enthusiasts. Since setting the record, Chad has continued to push the limits of what is possible with bubble gum. He has given demonstrations and lectures on bubble gum blowing and even created his own line of bubble gum products.

5. Most elastic skin

Garry Turner has been the proud owner of this record since 1999 due to a rare medical condition called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which affects the connective tissues and causes skin loosening and hypermobile joints. Mr. Turner can so extend his tummy skin up to 6.25 inches without feeling any pain. The British performer, who now works in sideshows, was a member of The Circus of Horrors in 2005.

6. Almost every bodily piercing

Some people have unique physical or mental abilities that just cannot be duplicated by anybody else, which means that some records cannot be broken (see Mr. Turner and has stretch skin). Sometimes, like Elaine Davidson, it involves finding someone who is willing to endure excruciating pain and/or adorn themselves with several piercings. The Brazilian set a new record for body piercings with 462; she has 192 on her face and 214 in her vaginal area.

8. The unique number of teeth

Vijay Kumar, also known as the man with the most significant number of teeth, is a resident of India who has gained international attention for his unique dental condition. Kumar was born with a rare condition called hypodontia, which causes the growth of excess teeth beyond the normal 32. According to reports, Kumar has a whopping 37 teeth in his mouth, which is significantly more than the average person. His condition has caused him discomfort and made it difficult for him to eat certain foods, but he has learned to adapt to his situation. Vijay Kumar may have the most teeth, but he also inspires many people who face challenges in their lives. His story is a testament to the power of resilience and the importance of embracing our differences, no matter how unusual they may seem.

9. Bearded Dame

Harnaam Kaur Guinness, also known as the “Bearded Dame,” is a British model, activist, and motivational speaker who gained widespread recognition for her unique appearance and advocacy for body positivity and self-love. Harnaam was born on November 29, 1990, in Slough, Berkshire, England. Harnaam was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) at the age of 12, a condition that causes excessive hair growth. She started shaving her facial hair at 16 but soon realized it was a losing battle. She decided to accept her facial hair and started growing her beard, which became her trademark. In 2011, Harnaam was featured in the Guinness World Records as the youngest woman with a full beard. This achievement brought her international recognition, and she became a spokesperson for body positivity and self-acceptance.

16. Tallest living human

Sultan Kösen, who stands 8 feet 2.82 inches tall, is the only man who has ever claimed to be the tallest person to have ever lived, despite the fact that there are many different types and sizes of people. Kösen, whose acromegaly is caused by a tumor that affects his pituitary gland, is one of only 10 people who have climbed 8 feet or higher and the seventh tallest man in history, according to Guinness World Records. He walks on crutches due to his health condition.

17. The most transient mobile human

Edward Nino Hernandez, a Colombian, weighs just 22 pounds and stands 72.10 cm tall, or about 2 feet and 4 inches. Because of his hypothyroidism, Mr. Hernandez's growth has been hampered "I conquer the world by grinning! I am capable of achieving anything I set my mind to, and I always give everyone a great smile," Hernandez told UPI. Everything is possible. . . Size and height don't matter! I want people to meet the real me—a sweet little guy with a big heart! ”

18. The largest Mac Burgers ever consumed

There are McDonald's addicts all over the world, but none of them are like Donald Gorske from Wisconsin. The 67-year-old "Big Mac enthusiast" currently owns the record for ingesting the most Big Macs over his lifetime, an astonishing 28,788. He routinely eats 14 of these burgers each week and claims that 90–95 percent of the solid food he consumes is the Big Mac. It's interesting to note that Mr. Gorske, while only weighing 185 pounds and standing 6'2", claims to have a cholesterol level of 140 ".

19. Most substantial rubber band ball

It's amazing how useful something as simple and as pointless as a rubber band can be for the average individual. Mr. Ward built his 6-foot-7-inch ball, which he called "Megatron," out of 700,000 rubber bands of various widths. Joel Waul set the record by making a 9,032-pound giant rubber band ball in 2008, earning him a spot in the Guinness World Records.

20. Longest plank held

Simply assume the push-up position, but instead of resting on your hands, rest on your forearms. Holding it for long periods of time might be challenging because your abs can quickly become weary. That is unless you're Chinese President Mao Weidong, who in 2016 endured an eight-hour, one-minute stint standing on a plank.

21. A large onion

You won't be surprised to learn that food has its own category in the Guinness World Records given that individuals all over the world have succeeded in producing enormous-sized products, ranging from doughnuts to Doritos. In 2014, Tony Glover of North Yorkshire in the United Kingdom broke the record with an onion that weighed 18 pounds, 11.84 ounces. Can you imagine the tears you'd shed if you chopped that thing?

22. Most fingers and toes on a living person

Despite the fact that having more than 10 fingers and toes may seem like something you'd only see in a science fiction movie, polydactylism is an extremely rare but very genuine human anomaly. Although some cases of polydactyly may have a genetic disorder or underlying hereditary disease, the condition is random and occurs for no apparent reason. Devendra Suthar, an Indian, is the human being with the most fingers and toes.

23. Sword Swallowed, strongest item

A sword swallower, despite the name, apparently uses a Dewalt jackhammer among other tools to pass a sword through the mouth, down the esophagus, and into the stomach. We know this because in 2007, Thomas Blackthorne broke the world record for swallowing the heaviest sword by swallowing an 83-pound, 12-ounce jackhammer and holding it there for more than three seconds.

24. The longest fingernails

Many people have a habit of biting their nails; some do it because they're lazy or bored, while others do it because they're stressed out or bored. Lee Redmond's fingernails are 28 feet and 4 inches long when added together, which establishes a big new world record. Lee Redmond has been growing her nails out for 30 years, beginning in 1979, so she certainly doesn't have one of those problems.

25. Greatest collection of Guinness memorabilia

People will gather and store a broad variety of stuff, and their stockpiles can get pretty huge! Louis Georgiou of the UK, for example, includes 2,111 items linked to the Transformers! However, Martyn Tovey of Radstock (also in the UK) holds the record for having the most Guinness World Records memorabilia with 2,164 unique items.

26. The largest mass ever lifted by a human beard

Antanas Kontrimas of Lithuania holds the title for the highest weight ever carried by a human beard, despite the fact that there is a ton of information in Guinness World Records on the enormous lifts that men, women, and children have achieved of various objects. The weight of a human can also be carried by Mr. Kontrimas' beard; those hair strands are pretty strong; in 2013 he lifted 63.80 kg with it!

27. Loud burp

Some people spend their whole lives perfecting their talents in preparation for a single dive, gymnastic routine, lift, or, in the instance of Mr. Paul Hunn, a single burp. Such skills are often demonstrated in athletic events like the Olympics after years of careful work. Hunn let out a burp in 2009 that measured 109.9 decibels loud, which is louder than a large orchestra.

28. Superior mustache

Nowadays, sporting a dapper mustache or an epic beard is in style, as it should be since among typical males, "beard" stands for being unique. Thus, although some guys oddly prefer to go clean-shaven, Ram Singh Chauhan from Jaipur, India went against the norm and allowed his mustache to grow for more than 37 years. The result was a 14-foot mustache that earned him a world record in 2010 that is still in effect today.

29. The most efficient method of eating a bowl of pasta

At the highest levels, competitive eaters can easily earn $500,000 a year from sponsorships and victories (food for thought, eh?). However, as it happens, we all know someone who, when they eat, resembles an animal in a state of craziness rather than another human. A fast eater who participates in competitions, Michelle Lesco, set a world record by finishing a portion of pasta (100 grams with sauce) in just 26.69 seconds.

30. Maximum of consecutive pinky pull-ups

Many people all over the world have been forced to turn to home workouts, with some obtaining spectacular results, but they would still need to work hard to match Tazio Gavioli's abilities during this period of quarantine lockdowns imposed by the COVID-19 epidemic. The Italian currently holds the world record for consecutive pinky pull-ups with 36 reps, so congrats on your one-arm pull-up, but you still have a ways to go to impress us, buddy.

31. Largest ping pong paddle

Want to win every game you play going forward? Just build a large paddle if you're tired of losing the monthly office ping pong tournament to the same opponent every time. 2017 saw the construction of a paddle by Rise Brands in Columbus, Ohio, that is 11 feet, 7.8 inches tall and six feet, 7.8 inches wide.

32. A mustache covered in toothpicks

Beards serve practical purposes, such as acting as a nest for rescued birds or a handy receptacle for goods like teeth photos, in addition to being fashionable facial decorations that improve all men's appearances. In 2018, Joel Strasser managed to cram 3,500 toothpicks into his beard. He did it in three hours and thirteen minutes, but his efforts got him listed in the Guinness Book of World Records!

33. Super tattooed man

Even those who have numerous tattoos cannot compare to Gregory Paul McLaren, also known as Lucky Diamond Rich. Some people even go so far as to cover their arms, legs, and/or back with permanent ink, creating a tattoo "sleeve." The New Zealander spent over a thousand hours having his body altered by tattoo artists, as well as having his earlobes stretched and his teeth coated with silver veneers.

34. The furthest arrow fired with the feet

Most of us would have difficulties even firing an arrow a respectable distance with our feet, but some people are just better at archery than the average person. 

The acrobatic archery Guinness World Record and the title of "a solo hand balancing artist" are both held by Brittany Walsh. In 2018, Walsh launched an arrow with just her foot that traveled an amazing 40 feet, 4.64 inches!

35. The largest hula hoop ever spun by a female

When it comes to hula hoop spinning, it seems like you either have it or you don't, but just like anything else, sometimes all it takes is a lot of practice to become an expert hula hooper. But how much practice must Getti Kehayova have put in to spin a hula hoop with a circumference of 17 feet,.25 inches? 

However, Kehayova did set a record by skillfully spinning the massive hoop at least three times despite donning a protective vest and nearly fracturing a few ribs in the process.

36. A big humanoid thing

Imagine a Transformer in its "natural" state, or a humanoid vehicle, which is a vehicle with a body made to resemble the human body. Many people have succeeded in creating humanoid cars throughout the years, but none are as impressive or as enormous as Sakakibara Kikai's Mononofu from Japan, the imposing vehicle is 28 feet tall and about seven tons in weight, and was built over the course of six years.

37. Man Covered in Most Bees

Who after all would voluntarily allow a beehive to rest on them for any period of time is one of the records in the Guinness World Records, which tells something about the person or people who set them. Gao Bingguo is the Chinese beekeeper who in 2015 broke the previous Guinness World Record by covering himself in 1.1 million swarming bees weighing a whopping 109 kg (240 pounds). After more than 2000 bee stings, his body temperature reached above 60 degrees Celsius (140 degrees Fahrenheit).

38. The Longest Kiss

PDA, especially when a couple is kissing for a very, very long time, is not for everyone, but we'll excuse it in the case of a world record attempt. Ekkachai and Laksana Tiranarat of Thailand currently holds the world record, which is absurdly long at 58 hours, 35 minutes, and 58 seconds. If you want to break it, you're going to need some serious stamina.

39. Most People in a Large Car

Anyone who has ever traveled by car with a large family or group of friends is aware of how uncomfortable it can become, especially if you're operating a small vehicle. The 41 people who fit into a Toyota Rav 4 at the Toyota Centre Krasnoyarsk Zapad (Russia) in Krasnoyarsk, Russia, are probably not claustrophobic; otherwise, they probably could not have achieved this weird but still impressive world record.

40. Who has the hairiest family

A relatively unusual skin disorder called congenital generalized hypertrichosis is characterized by mild and asymmetric hair growth in females and hair growth on 98 percent of male bodies (excluding palms and soles).

A 19-person family in Mexico with five generations is impacted by this case. The four affected family members are Victor Gomez, Gabriel Ramos Gomez, Luisa Lilia De Lira, and Jesus Manuel Fajardo Aceves.

41. First person to break the sound barrier while in freefall

We believe that Felix Baumgartner, the first and only person to break the sound barrier while falling freely, is the best example of a brave person who holds a Guinness World Record. To show just how much of a legend the Austrian skydiver is, on October 14, 2012, Baumgartner broke the world record for the longest skydive, a distance of almost 24 miles, with a high speed of about 843.6 mph, or Mach 1.25, while also traveling to the stratosphere on a helium balloon and then descending to Earth while donning a unique outfit.

42. Longest sustained voluntary breath

Do you remember the game you used to play in the pool with your friends? To break the previous record, everyone would take turns underwater holding their breath. Most people would find it challenging to finish a minute, even though most people aren't professional freedivers like Aleix Segura Vendrell. The longest period of time spent holding one's breath is an amazing 24 minutes, 3.45 seconds, according to a Spaniard.

43. In a minute, a woman breaks the majority of roof tiles

Have you ever seen videos of martial arts masters and students simply using their fists to smash bricks and other heavy objects? Quite remarkable, no? I suppose Lisa Dennis is from the UK. decided to take it a step further by breaking tons of roof tiles in just one minute. Specifically, 923 tiles. After her entire effort, only two tiles from the stack Dennis hit during the allotted minute were still in tact.

44. Enormous pizza

Anyone who disputes the fact that pizza is the most popular food in the world is insane. Pizza constantly tops lists of the most popular foods worldwide. Of course, some people are more enthusiastic about it than others, and it seems that Matteo Giannotte, Andrea Mannocchi, Marco Nardi, and Dovilio Nardi are the most enthusiastic. The group of five created a pizza with a total surface area of 1,261.65 m2 (13,580.28 ft2). The word "Ottavia" is of Roman origin and means "eighth son" on the pizza.

45. The tallest sandcastle

When spending time at the beach with family and friends, we frequently start creating sandcastles—or at least we try to.

We don't often, however, have a crew of 12 sculptors and 8 technicians working eight hours a day for three and a half weeks to build a 57 ft 11 in tall sandcastle, unlike the people at Skulptura Projects GmbH. 11,000 tonnes of freshly blended sand and water were needed, and it was completed in June 2019.

46. Longest tightrope walk in one minute

It can be frightening for onlookers to watch tightrope walks because they frequently take place at great heights and occasionally the performer opts not to wear a safety harness.

Oksana Seroshtan made the wise choice to attempt to break a world record while wearing heels by walking a tightrope at a safe height. She surpassed the previous record with a distance of 24 feet, 7.2 inches while wearing high heels.

47. Most human targets are hit by plungers in a minute

If there was a category for the oddest record, throwing plungers at people would win without a doubt. However, it might be a sign of Gerhard Doni's creativity to have thought of the record attempt.

2010 saw the German fling (and stick) 15 rubber-cup plungers to people in one minute, breaking his own record by one plunger.

48. World's largest LEGO tower

You won't believe it, but LEGO pieces aren't just for ripping off your feet's soles! This tower, which is 114 feet, 11 inches tall and was built in front of St. Stephen's Basilica in Budapest, is essentially the stuff of childhood fantasies. The Rubik's cube is perched atop the structure, which is constructed from thousands of bricks. It was constructed with the aid of the mayor of Budapest, young children, and licensed Danish contractors!

50. The tallest building

The Burj Khalifa is a skyscraper located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and is the tallest building in the world. It was officially opened on January 4, 2010, and stands at a height of 828 meters (2,716 feet), with a total of 163 floors. The construction of the Burj Khalifa began in 2004 and took six years to complete. It was designed by the Chicago-based architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and cost approximately $1.5 billion to build. The Burj Khalifa was built using cutting-edge technology, with advanced engineering systems and materials. In 2009, the Burj Khalifa was officially recognized by the Guinness World Records as the tallest building in the world, surpassing the previous record holder, the Taipei 101 in Taiwan. The Burj Khalifa's height was confirmed using a combination of satellite technology, laser measurements, and ground surveys. In addition to its Guinness World Record for being the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa has also set several other records, including the world's highest observation deck, the world's fastest elevator, and the world's highest swimming pool. Overall, the Burj Khalifa is a remarkable achievement in human engineering and symbolizes innovation, sustainability, and progress.
