1. Longest Time Sitting on a Toilet (Without Using It)
In 2016, Jimmy De Frenne from Belgium sat on a toilet for 116 consecutive hours without actually using it. The toilet wasn’t connected to plumbing—he just sat there, eating, drinking, and... holding it in. Talk about a throne fit for a king!
2. Fastest Time to Assemble Mr. Potato Head Blindfolded
In 2017, Marc Evans set the record by assembling a Mr. Potato Head in 6.62 seconds—while blindfolded! He probably knows Mr. Potato Head’s face better than his own.
3. Most Apples Held in Own Mouth and Cut by Chainsaw in One Minute
Johnny Strange (yes, that’s his real name) cut 8 apples held in his own mouth using a chainsaw. One slip and this record could’ve ended in disaster, but Johnny’s teeth and bravery held strong!
4. Fastest Time to Dress a Chicken
No, not plucking it—putting clothes on it! The fastest time to dress a chicken in a sweater and pants is 14.87 seconds. Who knew chickens needed fashion makeovers?
5. Longest Time Balancing a Lawn Mower on the Chin
Ashrita Furman balanced a running lawn mower on his chin for 3 minutes and 52 seconds. And yes, the blades were spinning. This guy’s got nerves (and a chin) of steel!
6. Fastest 100m Running on All Fours
Kenichi Ito from Japan ran 100 meters on all fours in just 15.71 seconds. He trained by studying the movements of monkeys. Talk about dedication to monkeying around!
7. Most T-Shirts Worn at Once
Sanath Bandara wore 257 T-shirts at once, setting a world record. It weighed over 200 pounds, and he could barely move. Who needs muscles when you’ve got layers?
8. Most Spoons Balanced on the Face
Dalibor Jablanovic balanced 31 spoons on his face at once. His secret? A very sticky (and possibly oily) face. Who knew spoons were the ultimate face accessory?
9. Fastest Time to Type the Alphabet Backwards
Michele Santelia typed the alphabet backwards in just 1.67 seconds. That’s faster than most people can say it forwards! Z-Y-X... what now?
10. Most Toilet Paper Rolls Balanced on the Head
Silvio Sabba (yep, the clothes peg guy) balanced 30 rolls of toilet paper on his head. If there’s ever a toilet paper shortage, we know who’s hoarding it.
11. Most Socks Put on One Foot in 30 Seconds
The record for the most socks put on one foot in 30 seconds is 28 socks. It was set by Pavol Durdik, who probably had the warmest foot in the world for a minute!
12. Fastest Time to Eat a Hot Dog Without Hands
Michelle Lesco holds the record for eating a hot dog without using her hands in 21.60 seconds. It looked like a face-plant in a bun but was an award-winning performance!
13. Most Marshmallows Caught in Mouth with a Homemade Catapult
The record for most marshmallows caught in the mouth with a catapult is 58 in one minute. It was set by two friends who basically invented a new sport—extreme s’mores!
14. Longest Distance Milk Squirt from Eye
Ilker Yilmaz from Turkey squirted milk 9 feet 2 inches from his eye. How did he discover this talent? We don’t know, but it’s utterly hilarious (and a little gross).
15. Most Rotations of a Hula Hoop on the Butt
Get this: the record for the most hula hoop rotations on the butt is 100 times in one minute. The talent is undeniable, but the sight is absolutely hilarious!
