Many of us dream of becoming famous, however, we cannot boast of anything outstanding. Someone chooses a career, trying to achieve in it unprecedented heights, some concentrate on creativity, while others try to stand out by setting extraordinary world records. However, the word “extraordinary” is hardly suitable to describe many of the very dubious achievements listed below. Let's be honest: these are the 10 dumbest world records. See for yourself.
This, of course, is not sawing an assistant with a saw during a performance by an illusionist, but it is also quite risky: in 2012, Bipin Larkin and Ashtra Furman set a new world record for cutting watermelons on their stomachs using a machete. They managed to separate 48 of these large berries in a minute.
If Robin Bobin Barabek ate forty people, then the Frenchman Michel Lotito ate an entire plane. Since childhood, he had a habit of eating anything not very edible, including parts from televisions and bicycles and bank cards. Well, the apogee of everything was the Cessna plane, which took Michel two years, from 1978 to 1980.
What about the biggest dog wedding ever? No, it's not about what you're thinking. In 2007, Jill Cobb presided over a ceremony during which 178 dogs said “I do” to each other and barked joyfully.
The fastest way to make your bed is even cool. Andrea Warner, a manager at an English hotel, was the fastest in the world to make a huge double bed. She spent only 74 seconds on this.
Filipino Gerard Jess set a new world record using... gases from his intestines. To put it simply, Gerard farted and blew out the candles. Well, let's applaud, because he managed to put out as many as 5 candles. An amazing achievement of human thought.
Well, this talent may even be somewhat useful to its author: British teacher Jill Drake managed to scream at a volume of 129 dB.
You know, shouting loudly and quickly making the bed is all right, because it can be used for something in real life. Do you like to plant snails on your face? Fin Keheler, an 11-year-old American from Utah, planted 43 snails on his face.
This guy truly has balls of steel! Kirby Roy took a serious blow in a rather painful competition when MMA fighter Justice Smith hit him in the crotch with a speed of 35 km/h and a force of 498 kgf.
Les Stewart always wanted to set some kind of record, but, unfortunately, did not have any outstanding talent. However, he was not at a loss and decided to print the numbers from one to a million in words. Yes, that’s right, he typed “one, two, three” and so on until he settled on the cherished goal “nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-eight, nine hundred ninety-nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine, one million.” This important task took 16 years and 7 typewriters.
10 stupidest world records 
That's it, finish. We've reached the King of Dumbest Records. Meet Ashrita Furman. He was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the person who set the most large number world records, including 27,000 overhead clapping jumps, fastest 1-mile run with a baseball in hand, and jumping on the world's smallest pogo stick. In total, Ashrita holds 551 world records. Okay, some of them are really impressive. Respect, Mr. Furman!
Every person has dreamed of becoming popular at least once in their life. Popularity, great fame, money, many fans, and just people watching your life with interest - this is what each of us is greedy for, and this is human nature. This crazy race for world fame often pushes people to do absolutely stupid, desperate and dangerous things. Our rating of the stupidest records included in " Guinness Book of Records“is clear proof of this.
Katie Jang from the USA is 71 years old, but she can hardly be called an old lady. Even at such an advanced age, this woman can boast of a figure that not all young girls have: her waist circumference in a corset is 15 inches (that’s 38.1 cm), and without a corset it’s 21 inches (53.3 cm). Since the age of 38, Katie has been wearing a special belt, which helped her achieve such a “wasp” waist. It is worth noting that before she started wearing this device, Katie was an ordinary fat woman.

No matter how absurd it may be, there really is a record in the Guinness Book that sounds nothing other than “ maximum quantity watermelons, cut on the stomach within a minute.” The record was set in 2012 by Bipin Larkin and Ashrita Furman. To do this, they needed a machete, a watermelon and incredible courage, and maybe even the despair of a girl whose stomach served as a cutting board.
3. Velcro for snails
This record will certainly make everyone wince, because it certainly cannot be called aesthetic. 11-year-old American Fin Koehler decided to throw a very unusual birthday: he asked all the invited guests to cover his entire head, including his face, with snails. By the way, this act was considered so stupid that it was even removed from publication in the book of records.
2. Unusual attraction
It sits inside every adult all his life. small child, hence the crazy craving for various, even the craziest, types of entertainment: rides, jumping from heights and other fun. But this case is something out of the ordinary. A man has set a record for the most revolutions per minute while rotating on a hanging drill.
