The Guinness Book of World Records is proof that someone does something better than others, in fact better than anyone in the world. A lot of great things come to mind 每 for instance someone made a record for the highest skydive or the most number of cliff jumps, while someone else made the longest pizza in the world.
There are also some who set their sights on a few rather bizarre records.

Not the most desirable, but a man from Rajkot, India made a record for the most handshakes.

These people were cordoned off to an area where all of them shook hands for 5 minutes. This record broke the previous one, which was set by 2,634 couples in Puducherry.

He grew his moustache for 32 years.
If there was an award for the weirdest world record, it would have to be this one.

The world never saw so many naked people on a ride together and so, it became a record.
