Considering the weekend left me with some extra free time on my hands, I did some research on some of the craziest, most astonishing, and out-there world records that have been accomplished. Many left me laughing or shaking my head in awe of the lengths of diligence someone went to in order to accomplish this variety of records. I decided to gather some of my favorite top world records I came across, and pair a picture and short description with each one.
The largest sushi mosaic made:
A total of 20,647 sushi pieces were put together into a mosaic in Hong Kong January 8, 20 14. The sushi mosaic covered a 37-square-meter space.
The largest human peace sign:
October 6, 2015, in New York City’s Central Park thousands of people gathered to celebrate John Lennon’s 75th anniversary by making the biggest peace sign.
The biggest cup of cappuccino:
In Moscow Russia, on March 25, 2004, a group of people attempted to make the largest cup of cappuccino, with a cup weighing 50kg and standing at a height of 45cm tall.
Being run over by the most Jeeps:
In Hungary on October 21, 2012 a man by the name of Attila Banyai was run over by a Jeep five times to beat the world record.
Most naked riders on a roller coaster:
In southeast England on August 8, 2010 there were 102 naked riders that rode a roller coaster to beat the record.
World's largest suitcase created:
In China during 2006, it was certified that the world's largest suitcase had been created. The suitcase is roughly 6 feet tall.
Most people simultaneously hula-hooping:
In February 2013, on the outskirts of Bangkok, 4,483 people hula-hooped for seven minutes.
Hopefully, these outlandish, crazy, and out-of-the-box world records that have been broken left you laughing or feeling amazed. I know I felt both for all of these! But who knows what the creative minds and future hold for more world records being broken. I am excited to see!
