Others: Greatest distance pushing a miniSOME ARE OW AND OTHERS ARE COOL BUT I HAVE READ THIS SO HECK
In this book it tells a lot about someone that does somethig weird or do something cool. In the other book of Guinness World Record i saw someone playing Speed Stack and i didnt know what is it? So when i came to Taiwain my cousin gave me it. Then i got interesed in. This book even tells about the people that are good athletes too.I even learned the longest word in the world!If you like sports and like to see amazing stuffs i recomend you to read it.
This is going to be a great world record book just like all the others!

My favourite record though is, longest Pogo stick ride. There are no main characters either although my favourite record breaker would have to be the man who ate 1 thousand big macs. Something i learned from this book would be to give
Oh boy, back in the days of middle school, everybody always wanted to get their hands on these Guinness World Records books. I caved at one point and got it too, and well, it is fascinating. I can't remember if it was 2012 specifically, but there were a lot of interesting country world records at the bottom of each page which added a bit of cultural flair to the annual records and such. This book in general: it's a list of cool records. A lot of eye candy and mind-blowing things, and if that's
