Silly Things People Do To Set World Records
I happened to watch Guinness Book of World Records on TV just a moment ago, one of the attempts at setting a new world record was this:
Attempting to peel the most number of bananas in record time.
Believe me, the introduction to this attempt was very misleading:
The setting was in a gym. A man was shown holding a heavy weight-lift, on both ends of the weights were bananas attached to them. My first thought was, ok, so this man is going to try to attempt a new world record by carrying a weight-lift with as many bananas as possible attached to both ends of the weights.
Boy, i was wrong.
When the scene shifted to the "live" studio, the emcee announced that this man was going to try set a new world record by attempting to peel the most number of bananas in record time.
What a misleading introduction.
