Needless to say, for many years now it has never ceased to amaze, delight and shock the audience with incredible achievements, fantastic inventions and various interesting facts, which in most cases make a truly lasting impression on the sophisticated (in terms of information) viewer. This year was not an exception either. Along with a huge amount of food, strange talents, colossal collections and much more, 2019 burst into the well-known pages with new world records, once again proving to all mankind the fact that nothing is impossible in life.
1. Sumiko Iwamuroaka aka Sumirok (Japan)
Grandmothers are different: some, sitting on a bench in the yard, collect gossip, others babysit their grandchildren and knit socks from time to time, others always complain about life, grumbling discontentedly at the new generation, talking about the fact that in their time they did not go like that and it was not worn. But, looking at this cheerful and hardworking "old woman", it is hard to believe that in her eighty-three years she not only works as a cook in her own restaurant, but also performs with pleasure as a DJ in a Tokyo night club with the original name "Club Decabar Z", thereby breaking and setting a new world record. Namely - becoming one of the oldest professional DJs, whose performance young people are looking forward to with great impatience. After all, grandmother Sumirok knows a lot about music and is certainly able to turn the audience on with her incendiary shows, which she arranges once or twice a month, gathering crowds of people eager to come off to the fullest.
2. Matt Danton (UK)
- what is most often said about the creative and talented Matt Danton - a man who managed to bring to life several ideas from his distant childhood, whose hobbies led him to create a six-legged robot, the main feature of which is that this huge machine weighing two tons can calmly walk the streets of the city, causing shock and surprise on the faces of passers-by. And it is not at all surprising that his fantastic creation took a record place in one of the oldest and most popular books in the world. After all, not every day such powerful robots are born, which have become a kind of walking transport.
3. Betty Gedhart (USA)
85-year-old Betty is recognized as one of the oldest female trapeze artists. To this day, despite her age, she performs tricks that are beyond the power of even young artists. And the most interesting thing is that the woman managed to try herself for the first time in this business only seven years ago, when she was 78 years old, but at the same time she managed to "fly" 249 days. So, as they say, age is not a hindrance to business.
4. Dogs Feather and Geronimo (USA)
As it turned out, not only people, but also animals can become the Guinness Book of Records holders. So, for example, two dogs belonging to the American Samantha Valla set such a high jump record. Feather, a two-year-old greyhound, holds the record for the highest jump among dogs, overcoming a dizzying 191.7 cm (75.5 inches) with ease. While the two-year-old Geronimo of the Border Collie and Kelpie Cross breed holds the record among jumps through two ropes, having made no less than one hundred and thirteen jumps in one minute.
5. Tom Bagnall (UK)
Perhaps Tom can be called the fastest man in the world, who holds the record for speed in jet karting, having managed to reach a staggering speed of 180.72 km / h.
6. Barry John Crowe (Ireland)
What can I say, and Barry is a real sausage master who managed to break the previous record and set a new one, having made as many as (just think about it!) Seventy-eight sausages in one minute. It is also worth noting the fact that this is not the only achievement of John, who from the age of ten made sausages and sausages in his father's store, each time coming up with something new and original. As a result, he has received many different awards for his sausage cooking skills, in addition, since the age of thirteen, he has managed to invent many different sausage flavors, ranging from cheddar cheese and chili flakes to curry flavored chips.
7. Elizabeth Bond (UK)
Elizabeth Bond, also known as Betsy, is an art student from the UK who holds the record for the largest knitting needles at 4.42m (14ft 6.33in). Betsy's love of making things began at a young age and was inspired by her mom's homemade projects. …
8. Cat Bibi (Malaysia)
What can I say, and Bibi's cat is not only a bundle of happiness, positive and a mess in the apartment, but also a real master in the field of tricks, capable of surprising even inveterate tricksters among people who learn similar things throughout their lives. And he is also a real record holder, who got into the Guinness Book of Records, thanks to the fact that he is able to keep a "tower" of ten dice on his paw!
9. Ryan Looney (Northern Ireland)
"Dragon Man" - so can be called Ryan, who became the record holder for his colorful trick, consisting of fourteen backflips, performed in a minute, accompanied by blowing fire from his mouth. And it is not at all surprising that with his performance, in addition to the Guinness Book of Records, he managed to reach the semifinals of a fairly popular British TV show called "Ninja Warrior", where he attracted even more public attention.
Continuing the theme - on which the most extraordinary people and records are captured in the Guinness Book.
