27 Weird World Records

Have you noticed that in the past couple of decades people try to come up with weird things to make world records out of? The most nickels stacks on the back of a hand is not anything that would ever have happened if there were no Guinness Book of World Records. The most interesting records are the ones that just happen with no world record intent, but that’s not going to stop people from trying to beat the record for the most marshmallows caught with chopsticks. John Green tells us about some of the weirdest ways people dream up to get into the record book in the latest episode of the mental_floss List Show. Along the way, he tries out some of the stunts he talks about. No records were broken.
