The most unusual people from the Guinness Book of Records. Impressive Guinness Records over the years

Faster, higher, stronger! Throughout human history, people have tried to outdo each other in everything. Looking through the Guinness Book of Records, you are amazed at the crazy areas in which they do not compete with each other.

Among the most ridiculous is the record of Pushkar Nepal, who hit himself 134 times on the head in a minute, Les Stewart, who wrote 19,860 pages with numbers in words from one to a million, for which he spent 16 years of his life, all sorts of achievements in eating incredible amounts of food, which sometimes led to death, and many, many others.

And, of course, such an important and interesting area of ​​life as intimacy did not go unnoticed. It is precisely this kind of records that we want to tell you about today.

1. Longest sexual intercourse. This record is capable of driving the toughest stallions of our time into complexes. It is recorded in the memoirs of the American film star of the last century, Mae West. She said that her sex marathon with a certain Ted lasted about 15 hours. As they say, no one held the candle. But Ted confirmed that everything described in the book by the loving film star, pure truth, and that he “was pleasantly surprised and pleased with his own abilities.” Still would! What man in his right mind would refuse such an achievement?

2. The most small size genital organ. And if the previous record can cause a visit to a sex therapist or psychotherapist, then this one will definitely add self-confidence and make you feel like a giant. According to research by the British Kinsey Institute, the length of the smallest penis of a sexually mature man is 2.5 cm. The owner of such a masculine... and cannot be called dignified, for obvious reasons, wished to remain incognito.

3. Record distance of ejection of seed. Incredible, but it's true: Hamburg resident Horst Schulz set a record for throwing semen at a distance of 5 m 71 cm. This guy could easily work as a fire hose, since his record exceeds the average by about 30 times.

4. Biggest breasts. And this record will make girls worry. The size of the largest mammary glands was recorded in 1995 in a Chinese 12-year-old girl, Ting Jiafen. Each breast protrudes forward almost half a meter and weighs 10 kg. But don't be so quick to envy. The huge bust did not bring joy to its owner. Constant problems with health, personal life, wardrobe. In addition, her back could not withstand the weight of the abnormal breasts, it hurt terribly, and once the Chinese woman’s legs completely gave out.

5. Longest pubic hair. And this record most likely will not cause envy in any mentally healthy person. The officially recorded length of pubic hair is more than 70 cm. By the way, the owner of such a unique intimate haircut– Cape Town resident Maoni Wee – apparently, for symmetry, she grew her armpit hair the same length.

6. The most fertile man. Do you still doubt whether you can handle a second child? The world's most prolific man, Moulay Ismail, had over 1,000 children. And he didn't complain. In fairness, it should be noted that he was a Moroccan emperor and questions about having to live with his mother-in-law or take out a mortgage, as well as how to feed his family, did not bother him. This record was recorded in documents from 1721. By this time, the emperor had at least 342 daughters and more than 700 sons.

7. The most fertile woman. The Siberian woman, the wife of a simple Russian Fyodor Vasilyev, became the mother of 69 children between 1725 and 1765. In order not to be fooled, she gave birth to them “in bulk” at once: 16 twins, 7 triplets and 4 quadruplets. Her achievement is recorded in the Guinness Book of Records, but the name of the heroine has sunk into oblivion.

8. Longest orgasm was experienced by US resident Samantha L. in 1966. And, alas, there were no men here. This strong and independent woman completed the task on her own. It lasted 43 seconds. For comparison, during this time, four-time Olympic champion swimmer Alexander Popov can swim a hundred meters freestyle.

9. The largest buttocks. Recorded in a woman from the African Bushmen tribe. Each buttock was about a meter wide. In white women, a soft spot of this size, unfortunately (or fortunately) does not occur in nature.

10. Most a large number of lovers. Their owner was a lady from the British secret society"Aphrodite", where swingers' parties and other fun activities were organized in the 19th century. The club included only the cream of high society, as the entrance ticket cost 10,000 pounds for men and 5,000 for the fairer sex. A fortune at that time. In addition, it was necessary to make a donation commensurate with the donor’s wealth. About it secret society became known thanks to the diaries of one lady, a participant in sexual orgies and entertainment. Over 20 years, she recorded 4959 love dates. Among her lovers were 272 princes, 93 rabbis, 439 monks, 288 members of the House of Commons, 2 of her uncles and 12 cousins, 119 musicians, 929 officers, 342 bankers, 420 socialites, 117 white footmen and 47 Moors, as well as 1,614 foreigners all suits.

Every year the number of unusual tricks and skills recorded in the Guinness Book of Records increases. Many daredevils risk their lives to achieve high results, and grateful spectators give the heroes surprised exclamations. The record of world records has been kept since 1955 and includes a wide variety of facts, which are confirmed by a special commission. Anyone can record unique skills. In this top we have collected 10 of the most incredible Guinness records.

1. Tom Sitas (breath holding for 22 minutes 22 seconds)

In the Chinese province of Changsha, a new amazing Guinness record for holding breath was set by the German Tom Sytas. He spent 22 minutes and 22 seconds in the water in front of television cameras, thereby beating the results of Peter Kohl (19 minutes 22 seconds) from Switzerland. Tom owes his victory to careful preparation: fitness classes in the pool, breathing apnea training, a special diet of vegetables and nutritious fish oil. Thanks to the exercises, he managed to increase his lung capacity by as much as 20 percent and accustom his body to prolonged oxygen starvation. While in water, Tom can slow down his metabolism and do without air without harm to his health.

2. Laso Shalle (World high-altitude jump record)

Swiss extreme sportsman Laso Challe demonstrated a unique jump from a height of 58.8 meters into the water. The record holder covered the entire distance from the top to the lake in 3.5 seconds, picking up a speed of 123 km per hour. The height of the jump can be compared to the height of the Leaning Tower of Pisa (56 meters) or the Tower Bridge (64 meters). Setting such a record required professional diving skills, since jumping from extreme heights carries a high risk of injury. Fortunately, Laso expertly timed his flight and entered the water perfectly without receiving a single injury.

3. Felix Baumgartner (jump from 39 km)

An incredible jump from the stratosphere was made by professional skydiver Felix Baumgartner, who covered a distance of 39 km to the ground. At the same time, the speed of its fall was about 1342 km per hour, which is 1.2 times higher than the speed of sound. In order to set the record, Felix had to ascend into the stratosphere in a special balloon filled with helium. The ascent took more than two hours, while the fall lasted 4 minutes and 19 seconds. The entire process was filmed on web cameras: the jump was broadcast in real time to millions of viewers. Using a parachute, Felix successfully landed in New Mexico, near Roswell. It is noteworthy that thanks to this trick, Baumgartner became a record holder three times in different categories: maximum speed falls, the highest balloon flight and the longest fall. Without a doubt, this is one of the most incredible and best Guinness records.

4. Luke Akins (jump without a parachute from a height of 7.6 km)

An incredible world record for jumping without a parachute was achieved by American Luke Akins. Having risen by plane to a point 7.6 km away, he jumped down, spending about 2.5 minutes in free fall, without a parachute behind his back. The record holder successfully landed on a specially prepared net, stretched at the height of a twenty-story building and measuring 30x30 meters. The most difficult thing, according to Luke, was timing the landing correctly and turning over on his back in time to avoid serious injury. During the fall, Akins skillfully planned, focusing on the exposed grid beacons. The chances of dying while setting the record were high, so few would dare to repeat Luke's jump again.

5. Gao Bingo (the largest number of bees on a person)

In 2015, in the Shandong province of China, one of the most dangerous Guinness records was registered - the number of bees on an unprotected person: for a long time, the body of a local resident, Gao Bingguo, was covered with almost 1.1 million insects. The weight of all individuals was 108 kg, while the previous record holder Jean Weiem set the figure at 88 kg. Despite the fact that Gao loves beekeeping, the insects caused him considerable discomfort: while setting the record, he received about 2,000 stings. Before the event, Gao had to take a bath to eliminate any odors, and his entire body was covered with queen bees. It took almost four hours for all the insects to flock, and the record holder himself remained in underwear. Maximum temperature Bingo's body reached almost 60 degrees.

6. Eric Baron (bicycle speed record)

Our Top 10 also includes the Guinness World Record for fastest speed on a racing bicycle, set by Frenchman Eric Baron, also known as the “Red Baron.” When descending from a mountain (altitude 2.7 km above sea level) along a specially prepared winter track in the Alps, he was able to reach a speed of 223.3 km per hour. The previous record also belongs to him and is 222.2 km per hour. In 2002, Baron received serious injuries and about 20 fractures during an extreme descent from the Cerro Negro volcano, so he carefully prepared to set a new world record. To achieve maximum results, Eric had to train hard, and the equipment itself and the bike underwent multiple tests, including testing in a wind tunnel.

7. Darren Taylor (shallow water diving world record)

An incredibly difficult jump in terms of technique was performed by Darren Taylor from Denver State. The uniqueness of the trick lies in the fact that the record holder dives from an 11-meter tower into a pool with a small amount of water: only 30 centimeters. In order to avoid injury and soften the blow, Darren literally lies flat on the surface of the water. This produces a huge amount of splashes, for which the diver received the nickname “professor of splashes.” The record holder admits that to win he had to comply with many conditions: low water and air temperatures, calculation of wind strength, as well as complete calm and maximum concentration. True, to protect the pool, the organizers still laid out several mats.

8. Terry Grant (mile on two wheels in a car)

The famous British stuntman Terry Grant is known for his various stunts performed on cars. He is the one who deals with extreme performances in popular blockbusters. Grant set the world record for driving on 2 wheels at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, driving a mile-long track in a straight line. The entire journey took him 130 seconds, which is 45 seconds more than his previous result. The stuntman already has several unique tricks in his kitty: he easily subjugates cars, for which his work is highly valued in the film industry. Terry himself says that he is not going to stop there, although the record was not easy for him: it required a lot of concentration and hand strength to hold and turn the steering wheel.

9. Tyler Toney (throwing a ball into a basket from the roof of a 162-meter skyscraper)

American basketball player Tyler Toney set an unusual Guinness record: he accurately hit the ball into the basket from the roof of the huge Oklahoma skyscraper Chase Tower. The height of the building itself is 162 meters. Tyler not only plays basketball, but also maintains his own video blog, where he published this unusual video. The comments do not indicate how many attempts the record holder made, but the hit was perfect. It is noteworthy that this is not his only trick. He also performed a hook throw using his head, blindfolded, and has a record of hitting the ball from behind his back.

10. Robbie Maddison (highest motorcycle jump)

At the end of 2008, Australian motorcyclist Robbie Maddison was awarded a place among the most incredible Guinness records. The dangerous jump took place in the center of Las Vegas during mass celebrations. An extreme biker was able to conquer a festive copy of a French landmark - Arc de Triomphe, which is 36.5 meters above the ground. Robbie was able to not only fly up on his bike to the top platform, but also risk jumping down from it. The height of the installation is about 15 meters. Robbie is a professional freestyle motocross stuntman, and, according to him, he made his jump to celebrate the New Year 2009.

On May 4, 1951, Sir Hugh Beaver - then managing director of the Guinness Brewery - went hunting in County Wexford, Ireland.
He witnessed a dispute over the fastest bird in Europe, and then realized that it was impossible to find out in reference books.
Then the idea occurred to him that such a book could become popular.
