Weird World Records

Burping is a natural human action, and it is sometimes considered a sign of a good meal. On June 16, 2009, Elisa Cagnoni produced the world’s loudest female burp, with a total of 107.0 dB. That is similar to hearing a jackhammer from a distance of 3 ft 3 in (1 meter). Every year in Reggiolo, Italy, there is an event at the Hardrock Beer festival called “Ruttosound.” The event hosts a burp competition to raise money for charity.

Bibi is a domestic short-haired cat with many talents, one of which is balancing dice. This cool cat lives with his owner, Siew Lianchui, in Malaysia. On June 18, 2017, Bibi managed to have ten dice stacked on his paw without moving.

Eye squirting is more common than you think; you just have to try it. On September 1, 2004, Ilker Yilmaz became a champion. At the Armada Hotel, Istanbul, Turkey, Yilmaz managed to squirt milk from his eye socket a great distance of 9 ft 2 in (279.5 cm).

A British man named Garry Turner has a world record for the Stretchiest skin due to a disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a condition where there is a problem with the tissue that connects skin, ligaments, and organs. The collagen in the skin is affected, meaning that the skin can become incredibly stretchy. This means that Turner is able to stretch his stomach skin 6.25 in (15.8 cm) away from his body. Turner won the record on October 29, 1999, in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Kim Goodman from the USA has the ability to pop her eyeballs out from her face. Goodman discovered she could pop her eyes from her skull after being hit in the head by a hockey mask. “Proptosis” is the term for the ability to pop your eyes from your head. On November 2, 2007, in Istanbul, Turkey, Goodman popped her eyes 0.47 in (12 mm) from her eye sockets and broke a new world record. The record was measured by an optometrist, using an optometer a total of three times to get an average distance.

On August 15, 2003, Ron Hunt was awarded a Guinness World Record for surviving a near-fatal accident. Hunt fell off a ladder while using a drill. He landed on the still spinning drill bit that was 18 inches (46 cm) in length. Not only did he land on it, but he landed on his face, with the drill bit being forced through his right eye and finally through his skull just above his right ear. After being admitted to Washoe Medical Center in Nevada, USA, surgeons found that the drill bit had pushed past his brain. He would have died if the drill bit had penetrated his brain.

On May 15, 2014, in Fengxin County, Yichun City, Jiangxi Province, China, Ruan Liangming broke a world record for enduring the world’s largest mantle of bees. There was an estimated total of 637,000 bees, including around 60 queen bees weighing a total of 140 lb 6.95 oz (63.7 kg). The record was attempted during the filming of both the CCTV-Guinness World Records Special and Lo Show Dei Record.

pound Libra meant "weight" or "balance scales," and pondo meant "pound." They eventually shortened the phrase to just libra, which they abbreviated “lb." Oddly enough, our English word “pound" comes from pondo, but we kept the “lb" abbreviation of libra for “pound." Weird, right?

It is said that the tongue is the strongest muscle in the body, but have you ever tested it? Thomas Blackthorne from the UK has, and he has even won a world record for the strength of his tongue. On August 1, 2008, at El Show Olímpico, in Mexico City, Mexico, Blackthorne lifted an incredible 27 lb 8.96 oz (12.5 kg) with his tongue.
