Our Story

How did Guinness World Records begin? How long have we been around? How many adjudicators are there? Here you can find out all about our origins and what the brand does today.

Origins Story

The idea came about in the early 1950’s when Sir Hugh Beaver (1890—1967), Managing Director of the Guinness Brewery, attended a shooting party in County Wexford. There, he and his hosts argued about the fastest game bird* in Europe and failed to find an answer in any reference book.

In 1954, recalling his shooting party argument, Sir Hugh had the idea for a Guinness promotion based on the idea of settling pub arguments and invited the twins Norris (1925—2004) and Ross McWhirter (1925—75) who were fact-finding researchers from Fleet Street to compile a book of facts and figures.

Guinness Superlatives was incorporated on 30 November and the office opened in two rooms in a converted gymnasium on the top floor of Ludgate House, 107 Fleet Street.

After an initial research phase, work began on writing the book, which took 13 and a half 90-hour weeks, including weekends and bank holidays. Little did the McWhirters know that taking shape was a book that would go on to become an all-time best seller and one of the most recognized and trusted brands in the world…

The power of record-breaking

Today, Guinness World Records is a global brand, with offices in London, New York, Beijing, Tokyo and Dubai, with brand ambassadors and adjudicators on the ground around the world.

Our mission to document the incredible can still be found each year on the pages of our book, but also through TV Shows, social media and live events.

Whether in the form of a personal life-long dream, or a team attempt within a company of 5000, the power of record-breaking is easy to see, and continues to inspire amazing feats and achievements every day, across the globe.

Frequently asked questions

Here you can find answers to frequently asked questions about record-breaking and the Guinness World Records applications process, as well for our website and other products

Record breaking and applications

Visit our How to collect and submit evidence to get an idea of the evidence you need to provide as part of your record attempt.

All evidence must be submitted online. You can upload your evidence by logging into your account. Please do not send evidence to Guinness World Records by post as all file types are accepted online.

After this, our expert Records Management Team will assess your evidence. If your attempt is verified as successful, you will be eligible for one complimentary Official GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ Record-Holder Certificate to confirm your record-holder status!

Unfortunately we are unable to respond to letters, so please make an application online or check our contact page.

Please do not send us evidence before submitting an application and receiving your guidelines, as we will not be able to process it.

Guinness World Records has an expertly trained Records Management Team who undertake substantial research and verification checks to confirm whether a new record title has been achieved.

When you submit an application for a new record title, Records Category Specialists carefully assess it to confirm whether or not your proposal can be accepted. When you submit your evidence for a new or existing title, the Records Management Team will run comprehensive checks on this evidence to confirm whether it is sufficient to demonstrate that you have achieved the record title in question.

During the application process you will be able to search our entire database of records and find out if we already have a record matching your idea and what the target to beat is.

If your proposal for a new title is accepted, or if you are applying for an existing title, you will receive your guidelines to attempt the record. It is important that you read these and the evidence checklist pack carefully, and document all requested evidence. This is so our team can assess all evidence provided and verify whether your attempt has been successful.

It is also important that you ask any questions well in advance of any record attempt. This is to ensure we have time to respond, as it can take up to 2 weeks for us to get back to you. If your application has been accepted, you will be able to send all correspondence via your online account directly to your records manager.

Visit our How to collect and submit evidence to get an idea of the evidence you need to provide as part of your record attempt.

For new record ideas please note that Guinness World Records only recognises WORLD records. We do not verify national / country specific achievements.

Unfortunately, our Kids Records are not currently open for proposals on new titles, but you can apply for our existing records via our Kids Website and we suggest you check this page for any new Kids Record releases in the future

We currently hold more than 15,000 records online, so if you wish to find out if a record exists, please feel free to explore our website!

You can locate a record by using the search and entering keyword(s).

To search for specific keywords, please use quotation marks (“xxxx”), as this will show all results containing your chosen keywords.

If you still can’t find what you’re looking for, it may be that the record you are interested in has not been updated on our website yet, is not a record that we currently monitor or currently does not exist.

If you are enquiring about a record to break or set, then please register an account with us. Then login, click on ‘Apply for a record’ in your dashboard to make an application. You will have the option to ‘Apply for a New Record Title’ if you cant find the record you are looking for.

As we do not provide an individual consultative service, we are currently unable to answer questions relating to multiple record enquiries or specific detailed record enquiries.

You can also review the rest of our FAQ section for more answers.

As the world’s unrivalled authority on record-breaking achievement, our role is to celebrate the world’s best, to inspire ordinary people and to entertain and inform.

For these reasons, we do not pay record-breakers for their achievements or for carrying out a record title attempt. We are also unable to cover any expenses, offer sponsorship or provide equipment for anyone attempting a record.

In addition, we are unable to make contributions to individuals, charities or businesses. This is to maintain our unbiased stance as the world’s global record breaking authority and to ensure that we are truly inclusive of all applicants.

Some of the most frequently broken records include the Longest DJ marathon, the Heaviest item lifted with glue and the Most apples bobbed in one minute! Another record that is broken regularly is the Oldest person in the world, but the oldest person ever remains Jeanne Louise Calment who lived to be an incredible 122 years and 164 days old.

While Guinness World Records no longer monitors who tops the overall leader board of ‘most records broken’ (as all titles we monitor are very different and require an array of skills), some of our most prolific record breakers of all time include Silvio Sabba (Italy) Ashrita Furman (USA), David Rush (USA) and André Ortolf (Germany).

There are more than 40,000 current records in our database, however due to space constraints, we can only publish around 4,000 records in the book each year which always makes it a tough decision for our editorial team and editor-in-chief!

If your record hasn’t been selected for publication, there’s always a chance that it may be included in future editions, or it may appear on our official website.

There are more than 40,000 current records in our database and we try our best to feature as many as possible online. We currently include over 15,000 records online which we update every week, so make sure to check the site regularly!

For any record titles associated with large amounts of food, our Record Guidelines stipulate that it must either be consumed or distributed for consumption after it has been measured. As with all record titles, the Record Guidelines must be adhered to in order to be considered a successful Guinness World Records title.

To enable us to continue to be a part of thousands of personal achievement journeys, we can only provide access to use services such as an official adjudicator through our fee-based Consultancy service.

Visit the business solutions section to learn more about the services they provide; if you would like to speak to a member of the Consultancy team, please select the option to Contact an Account Manager.

If you wish to break an existing record or set a new record, and want to view the guidelines, you will need to submit an online application first.

Each application for a new record title is reviewed individually by an expert and we are unable to tell you if your record can be accepted by email or phone.

If you need some ideas on what to choose, take a look at What Makes a Guinness World Records title? or explore our records showcase for inspiration.

Also visit our guide to evidence page to get an idea of the evidence you need to provide as part of your record attempt.

Please note, we cannot respond to postal enquiries.

We do not provide individual consultative services as part of the Self-service application. All Self-service application proposals must be made via our website by submitting an application.

Before suggesting a new record, please view What makes a Guinness World Records title?

If you are applying on behalf of a business, agency or non-profit organisation, you may be interested in our Record Consultancy Service.

Yes, depending on the type of record you wish to attempt. However, if you are under the age of 13, you will need either a parent or guardian to create an account and submit the application on your behalf.

If you need some tips on what is a record then please have a look at What makes a Guinness World Records title?

Don’t forget, you can always explore our Records Showcase to get some great ideas too!

Guinness World Records enforces a minimum age limit of 16 years old on a number of record categories. These are typically for highly physical, dangerous or endurance based records. There are also other records we consider unsuitable for people under the age of 16 to attempt, this is at Guinness World Records discretion.

If you’re under 16 you’ll be unable to apply for the record, so we encourage you to apply again when you’re older. In the meantime please search the website for other records you can attempt.

Guinness World Records does not accept any records relating to chain letters, sent by post or e-mail.

If you receive a letter or an e-mail which promises to publish the names of all those who send it on, it is not genuine.

Even if it states that Guinness World Records or the postal service are involved, we are not and no such attempt would be recognised as a world record.

If you have reached your limit, you will get a message on your dashboard that will tell you how long you have to wait until you can make another application.

Priority Application / Priority Evidence Review

You can choose the Priority Application service during the online application process when you first submit your application. If you decide you want to speed things up a bit later, you can switch to Priority Application at any time. If you choose the Priority Application option, your application will be reviewed within 5 working days. Normal application processing can take up to 12 weeks*.

To do this, please login to your Guinness World Records account, select the relevant application and click on Upgrade to Priority Application.

Once you have sent us your evidence, you can also purchase our Priority Evidence Review service to prioritise the review of the evidence and the approval of your record.

The Priority Evidence Review service is only available AFTER we have received your full evidence, and will ensure that your evidence is reviewed within 5 working days (waiting times are up to 12 weeks* for standard applications).

We currently accept 2 methods of payment for Priority Application and Priority Evidence Review: PayPal and Worldpay.

If you prefer to pay by bank transfer, please request an invoice when you come to the payment page during the application process and follow the instructions.

Please note our Priority Application service is not a consultative service for standard applicants – it only speeds up the standard application process. Using the Priority Application process does not guarantee that your application will be successful, and we do not issue refunds if your application is unsuccessful.

If you wish to learn more about our fee-based Consultancy services or if you are applying on behalf of an organisation or brand please visit the Business Solutions section of our website.

Please refer to our Current application waiting times page for the most up-to-date information.

Our priority application and evidence review services are only available to individuals or small groups whose primary purpose for attempting a record is personal achievement.

If you are attempting a record on behalf of an organization, please contact our Consultancy division where they are included as part of a wide range of products and services to help maximise the impact of your record attempt. To find out more about how we can help, visit our Business Solutions pages.

N.B. receipts are not generated if you pay via bank transfer

If you have already generated an invoice for your application you must pay by bank transfer.

If you would prefer to pay by another method you need to cancel your current application and start a new one.

You will then have the option to pay by credit card or PayPal.

Record policies

Guinness World Records has a strict list of record policies that must be adhered to for all our record breaking achievements.

We assess all new record titles against our values of integrity, respect, inclusiveness and passion and it is of the utmost importance to us that all our records reflect this.

As such, we have a number of internal policies that all records must adhere to. Our policies are regularly reviewed and updated in collaboration with expert organisations and based on feedback from our readers.

Please find a non-exhaustive list and details of our policies.

Any record involving the consumption of alcohol as part of drinking contests, binge drinking or speed drinking.

Any records that could potentially endanger or harm animals. This includes any records in which the animals would have to be put to greater stress to achieve a new record, such as endurance records, or records which include any level of danger for the animal. For all animal records, the animal must do the attempt without any physical contact with their owner/trainer. Any attempts that would require physical prompts from the owner/trainer are not allowed.

Food wastage

Inbreeding has historically been used to exaggerate extremes in animal conformation (body shape, structure, or appearance). This practice has led to the suffering of many animals, due to their extreme conformation, which compromises welfare. Promoting sensible breeding practices ensures we maintain the health of future generations and taking a welfare-focused approach helps to eliminate health problems associated with some breed/species standards. This ensures animals lead full and pain-free lives. Society, including brands such as Guinness World Records, must accept responsibility and promote improvements in breeding practices to protect animals from exploitation.

Guinness World Records will not monitor any records involving unsuitable activities or those which could cause potential harm or danger to spectators.

Such as largest release of party balloons, sky lanterns, etc. are no longer monitored.

We do not monitor any records for excessive eating records. All of our eating records showcase the skill of speed eating only and as such are limited to short time periods and small quantities of food, such as fastest time to eat three cream crackers.

We require any record relating to food to follow strict policies regarding food consumption and donation.

Guinness World Records will not endorse or permit Illegal activities in pursuit of record breaking. Any record attempt proven to occur outside of the local law would be disqualified.

Guinness World Records will not process inappropriate or offensive applications.

Guinness World Records does not monitor any medical testing records that involve the skin being pierced, or an examination in which a device enters the body beyond what is reasonably comfortable. This includes any tests which require a needle; or an internal physical examination.

Guinness World Records is an apolitical organisation, determined to protect the integrity of our records by remaining politically neutral. Therefore, we do not accept record applications which we consider to be politically motivated and we reserve the right to reject or cancel a record application should we deem it to promote a political agenda.

Positive action can be described as the implementation of measures to increase representation and participation amongst underrepresented groups of people.

To GWR, that means ensuring our record titles are as inclusive as possible. Where a case for positive action can be made, GWR will therefore consider record titles, timeframes and other factors outside of our standard criteria. Typically, this would see us create a new record title with an impairment classification which would usually be unavailable to a non-impaired person, as a means of encouraging greater interest and participation in record-breaking from individuals with a physical, visual or intellectual impairment.

Guinness World Records tries to include as wide a variety of activities as possible to appeal to different age groups, and concentrate on absolute records, rather than those that are qualified in some way.

GWR may decide to implement a reasonable adjustment to record guidelines or evidence requirements to level the playing field and ensure that an impaired person is not at a disadvantage to someone who is not impaired when attempting a Guinness World Records title.

For example, we may allow adapted equipment or extended rest breaks if required, allowing a participant to attempt their chosen record title under the appropriate conditions for their impairment.

Guinness World Records no longer accepts applications or creates new record titles that are related to the consumption, preparation or use of tobacco, cannabis or nicotine products.

The principle of voluntary participation requires that people must not be coerced into participating in a record attempt. However, participants may be recompensed for their expense, time, and inconvenience.

Participants at Guinness World Records events must take part of their own free will. Organisers must ensure that all participants are full informed about the record they are taking part in.

Applicant Information Alert: Coronavirus Update

With COVID-19 still prevalent in many countries around the world, Guinness World Records is aware that there are concerns and restrictions around large gatherings of people. Please read below.

GWR encourages all applicants to seek local health and safety advice before deciding to go ahead with their attempt and if in any doubt, they should consider postponement or cancellation.

We are mindful that people around the world may be part way through a journey record attempt and suffering travel restrictions or facing quarantine periods. We are allowing these attempts to be paused and encourage applicants to adhere to local and global health and safety advice, and only continue with their attempt when safe.

During this time we kindly ask any applicants to continue to submit evidence to us only by uploads through their application and refrain from sending anything by post. Postal evidence is not something we usually accept and as many of our offices are closed due to the COVID-19 situation it’s unlikely the packages will be delivered by postal services successfully.

Хочу все знать

Первая публикация книги Рекордов Гиннесса вышла в пятидесятые годы XX века. Заказчиком была ирландская пивоваренная компания «Гиннес». Идея создания сборника, объединяющего все самые необычные рекорды мира, принадлежала владельцу — Guinness Brewery Хью Биверу.

В 1759 году Артур Гиннес открыл в Дублине у ворот Сент-Джеймс пивоварню, которая спокойно и относительно успешно просуществовала до середины ХХ века. В 1833 она была уже крупнейшей в Ирландии, а к 1930 году Гиннес уже владел в Великобритании двумя пивными заводами, производящими фирменный крепкий портер. Однако стратегия развития торговой марки «Гиннес» не предусматривала создания и содержания сети пабов. Готовый продукт продавался в различных частных заведениях благодаря широкой рекламе, на которую компания Гиннес не скупилась. Именно удачная реклама являлась тем необходимым дополнением, которое позволило развить бизнес, поэтому компания всегда уделяла рекламе особое внимание. В 1951 году на ужине, устроенном компанией «Воксфорд» для местных охотников, директор-распорядитель «Гиннеса» сэр Хью Бивер поспорил с кем-то из гостей, что золотая ржанка — самая быстрая птица в Европе.

Тремя годами позднее, опять же в одном из пабов, у сэра Хью снова возник похожий спор, предметом которого, как ни странно, опять оказалась птица — золотая ржанка. На этот раз спор шел о том, кто летает быстрее, золотая ржанка или шотландская куропатка. Именно тогда сэру Биверу пришла в голову мысль о том, что наверняка подобные споры в подобных условиях являются скорее правилом, чем исключением, и что все они не могут быть немедленно разрешены, так как спорящие просто не имеют авторитетного источника, в котором бы содержались все необходимые данные. И очень неплохо, если бы такой справочник издавался компанией «Гиннес», что неизбежно ассоциировало бы его с известной маркой хорошего пива. Работа над «пивной энциклопедией» была поручена Норрису и Россу Макуиртерам, владельцам информационного агентства. На все про все ушел год. Были просеяны многочисленные факты, собраны веские научные подтверждения и авторитетные свидетельства специалистов. В результате, 27 августа 1955 года первое 198-ми страничное издание увидело свет. Позднее оно получило широкоизвестное нынче наименование «Книга рекордов Гиннеса».

Впервые за всю историю книгопечатания бестселером стал не детектив или какой-либо роман, а самый настоящий энциклопедический справочник. Решение издать сборник различных рекордов возникло в силу объективных причин. Часто среди посетителей ирландских пабов возникали различные споры, к примеру о самой быстрой птице Европы, о самой крупной рыбе, и так далее. Частенько свидетелем подобных дискуссий, возникавших за кружкой пива, был владелец пивоварни Хью Бивер. Разрешать такие споры было не простым делом и Бивер решил, заказать сборник всевозможных рекордов. Чтобы посетители пабов, собравшись с товарищами за кружечкой пива, могли легко разрешить тот или иной спор, прочитав о нем в книге.

В 1955 году вышло первое издание Книги рекордов Гиннеса, состоящее из 198 страниц. На её создание ушло около года, так как необходимо было подобрать наиболее распространенные споры в пабах и собрать данные о рекордах того времени. Сначала ее распространяли в пабах «Гиннеса» и питейных заведениях конкурентов. Но спустя всего два месяца после выхода в свет, книга стала бестселлером. Сборник очень быстро привлек внимание обширной публики.

Так как сборник рекордов пользовался большой популярностью его решили расширить и дополнить правдивыми историями и исследованиями. Изначально туда входили мировые рекорды атлетов, уникальные явления природы, не имеющие аналогов.

В настоящее время книга выходит ежегодно и каждый новый выпуск содержит новые достижения. На сегодняшний день из книг, издающихся по всему миру, сборник рекордов имеет самый большой тираж. Таким образом Книга рекордов Гиннесса завоевала рекорд, который в себе и разместила. Только Библия, Коран и цитатник Мао Цзедуна имеют больший тираж. Нынешним издателем книги является Стюарт Ньюпорт.

Согласно последним данным, общее количество проданных книг перевалило за 100 миллионов изданий. На английском языке сборник выпускается в 40 странах, переводится на 123 языка. Первое издание на русском языке вышло в 1989 году.

В настоящее время «Книга рекордов Гиннеса» является едва ли не полностью самостоятельной индустрией. Так как публикуемые в ней факты довольно быстро устаревают, то в разных странах созданы специально уполномоченные комиссии, занятые освидетельствованием новых рекордов и выдачей специальных дипломов.

Fastest 5m on a scooter by a dog and cat (pair)

Meet Lollipop the dog and Sashimi the cat, two scooter enthusiasts from Canada.
Their favourite pastime? Scootering around the house together – a trick they came up with all by themselves, much to the surprise of their owner, Melissa Millett.

With a record of 4.37 seconds, Lollipop and Sashimi confirmed their (unlikely!) partnership as more than a hobby: it’s a record-breaking sensation.

Fastest 100m forward rolls and Most backwards somersault burpees in 30 seconds

Like many others, 28-year-old gymnast Bethany Lodge (UK) struggled to keep her motivation during the pandemic.

Her solution to win over the lockdown slumber? Setting herself an ambitious goal: breaking a record.

In the end, she broke two: fastest 100m forward rolls (42.64 seconds) and most backwards somersault burpees 30 seconds (5).

I’m honoured,” she said upon discovering that she would feature in the book. Her attempt inspired her friends and family to sign for records of their own, but it also reminded the world that exercising doesn’t have to be a chore. Find something you love, make it fun, and make it happen!

Most skips over a person’s own hair in 30 seconds

An artist who creates sculptures with her hair, model, actress, and record-breaker: the ever-versatile Laetitia Ky has done it all.

The hairstyles Laetitia (who comes from Abidjan, Ivory Coast) creates can take from 20 minutes up to 3 hours to finish, and vary across a series of different styles, lengths and difficulties. They are all, however, inspired by the pre-colonial tradition of women in African culture.

Combining her hair-sculpting abilities and athletic skills, and with the aid of extensions braided with her natural hair, 25-year-old Laetitia has skipped a rope made out of her own hair for 30 seconds.

After pursuing his passion with strength and motivation, Zion is now aiming for the stars.

His current goal is to become the first American athlete to compete in both the Olympic (wrestling) and Paralympic (wheelchair racing) games in 2024.

Как подать заявку в Книгу рекордов Гиннеса и стать известным?

Самым известным печатным изданием в мире считается Книга рекордов Гиннеса. В ней фиксируются все рекордные достижения людей, животных и природных явлений, а также выдающиеся достижения в искусстве и других сферах деятельности. Эта книга упоминается во многих новостях, а некоторые из нас знают о ней по телепередаче «Guinness World Records: Primetime», которую показывали даже по российскому телевидению. История создания этой книги началась в середине XX века, когда один из руководителей пивоваренной компании «Guinness» решил создать справочник обо всех рекордных достижениях обитателей нашей планеты. По его мнению, такая книга могла помочь в решении многих споров, которые затевают посетители американских пивнушек. Скорее всего, он даже не мог предположить, что эта книга станет известной во всем мире.

Кто создал Книгу рекордов Гиннеса?

Идея создания Книги рекордов впервые пришла в голову руководителю пивоваренной компании Guinness Хью Биверу (Hugh Beaver). В 1951 году он охотился на птицу золотистую ржанку (Pluvialis apricaria) и после неудачных попыток объявил своим знакомым что она — самая быстрая пернатая дичь в Европе. Именно тогда он осознал, что было бы неплохо иметь при себе справочник с перечислением различных рекордов. Такая книга бы не только помогла проверить правдивость его высказывания о ржанке, но и решить множество других подобных споров, которые заключаются в разных пивнушках. Но эта мысль быстро покинула его голову и он вспомнил о ней снова только спустя несколько лет.

Если бы не проворность этой птицы, Книги рекордов Гиннеса бы не существовало

В 1954 году он снова разговорился с людьми и сказал, что шотландская куропатка (Lagopus lagopus scotica) быстрее вышеупомянутой ржанки. Стало ясно — создать справочник о самых быстрых птицах и прочих рекордах просто необходимо. В том же году он и его братья выступили перед советом директоров компании Guinness и получили деньги на создание книги. Они связались с учеными и собрали информацию о самых разных рекордах в мире. В конечном итоге, 27 августа 1955 года в свет вышло первое издание Книги рекордов Гиннесса, состоявшее из 198 страниц. Тираж составил 50 000 экземпляров и сначала проект был на грани провала. Но уже к концу первой недели со дня печати компания получила 10 000 заказов.

Первое издание Книги рекордов Гиннеса

Развитие Книги рекордов Гиннеса

Изначально Книга рекордов Гиннеса позиционировалась как серьезный справочник. Авторы занимались сбором научных данных, консультируясь с различными экспертами в самых разных отраслях. Профессионалы помогали представителям Книги рекордов заполнить новые издания свежими фактами и, при необходимости, исправляли их. Чтобы эксперты охотнее шли на контакт, авторы пользовались одной хитростью. В письмах они не просили предоставить факт напрямую. Они могли написать что-то вроде «Мы считаем, что самое быстрое животное на Земле это Гепард. Правда ли это?». Профессионалы исправляли их предположение и тем самым давали наиболее правдивую информацию. О самых быстрых животных на нашей планете вы можете почитать в этом материале. Их много.

Со временем Книга рекордов Гиннеса превратилась с список различных странностей. На фото — Джеки Майли, обладательница самой большой коллекции плюшевых мишек (8025 штук)

В последующие годы представители Книги рекордов Гиннеса начали фиксировать достижения, сделанные людьми в ходе различных соревнований. Например, в книгу попал самый дальний гол в истории футбола, забитый вратарем английского «Сток Сити» Асмиром Беговичем — мяч пролетел 91 метр и 90 сантиметров. В дальнейшем в книгу начали попадать люди, которые ставили более абсурдные рекорды. Так, однажды по имени Ашрита Фурман установил рекорд по самому быстрому толканию апельсина при помощи носа. Толкание цитрусового фрукта на одну милю (1,6 километров) заняло у него 22 минуты 41 секунду. Звучит странно и как-будто что-то простое, но пытавшиеся побить этот рекорд люди стирают свои носы и коленки в кровь. Не так-то это и легко!

Ашрита Фурман уже поставил более 200 рекордов. На фото он режет арбузы на своем животе. За минуту нарезал 31 штуку

Как поставить рекорд Гиннеса?

Новые выпуски Книги рекордов Гиннеса выходят каждый год, обычно в сентябре или октябре. В каждый четверг третьей недели ноября празднуется Всемирный день Книги рекордов Гиннеса. В этот праздник люди со всего мира пытаются поставить какой-либо рекорд для следующего издания книги. Но поставить рекорд можно и в любой другой день — главное, связаться с представителями специальной комиссии. Рекорд фиксируется только в присутствии представителей Книги рекордов, которые следят за выполнением всех условий.

Связаться с представителями компании может любой человек, который хочет поставить рекорд. Для этого нужно зарегистрироваться на сайте Guinness World Records, нажать на кнопку «Set a record» и подать заявку с описанием достижения.

Вообще, фиксирование рекорда Гиннеса можно разделить на 5 шагов:

Стоить отметить, что в Книгу рекордов Гиннеса некоторые достижения не принимаются по этическим соображениям. Однажды в книгу попал рекорд с самой тяжелой выращенной в домашних условиях рыбой. После выхода издания с упоминанием этого достижения, многие люди начали перекармливать своих домашних животных в надежде поставить похожий рекорд. Также время от времени из книги удаляются рекорды, связанные с употреблением алкоголя и приемом пищи. А все потому, что некоторые люди при установке рекорда могут нанести своему здоровью вред и обвинить в этом Книгу рекордов Гиннеса. А судебные разбирательства никому не нужны.

Недавно мы писали о том, что будет, если пить алкоголь каждый день. Рекомендую к прочтению!

Виды рекордов Гиннеса

Рекорды бывают разные. Некоторые из них серьезные — например, в забеге на 100 метров рекордсменом до сих пор считается ямайский спортсмен Усэйн Болт, который пробежал дистанцию за 9,58 секунды. Но большинство рекордов необычные и в какой-то мере даже мерзкие. Вы наверняка слышали об американке Ли Редмонд, которая отрастила себе 80-сантиметровые ногти.

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

Ли Редмонд — женщина с самыми длинными ногтями в мире

Чтобы отделить одно от другого, прошедшие отбор рекорды распределяются по десяти разделам книги:

Благодаря такой структуре практически любому рекорду можно найти место. Недавно мы писали про самого высокого человека в мире Роберте Уодлоу. Он числится в разделе «Человек» с ростом 272 сантиметра. Почитать о нем можно в этой статье.

Книга рекордов Гиннеса в культуре

Как и говорилось выше, о Книге рекордов Гиннеса сегодня слышал почти каждый человек. Помимо основной версии, авторы выпускают специальные издания на определенные темы вроде компьютерных игр и музыки. Также существует множество телевизионных передач, где люди ставят рекорды перед видеокамерами. Самой известной среди них, пожалуй, является «Guinness World Records Primetime». Ее даже показывали по российскому телевидению. Посмотрите видео ниже — может, вы тоже смотрели эту передачу?

Про Книгу рекордов Гиннеса даже есть видеоигра — «Guinness World Records: The Videogame». Она вышла в 2008 году для игровых приставок Nintendo DS и Wii и представляла собой сборник мини-игр для установки рекордов среди друзей. Игра не обрела большую популярность, но год спустя вышла на iOS. А откуда вы впервые узнали о Книге рекордов Гиннеса? Пишите в комментариях или в нашем Telegram-чате.

Книга рекордов: кто такой Гиннесс, и для чего изначально была создана книга

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

О Книге рекордов Гиннесса, куда заносятся сведения о выдающихся людях, животных, объектах и явлениях, известно, наверное, всем без исключения. Но вот о том, кто же был такой Артур Гиннесс, чье имя носит книга рекордов, и какую необычную функцию она изначально выполняла, мы расскажем в нашем обзоре.

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

Артур Гиннесс (1725-1803) был не ученым или писателем, собиравшим любопытные сведения обо всем на свете, а известным пивоваром, который владел крупной пивоварней в Дублине и был успешным бизнесменом. Своим делом Гиннесс занялся после того, как его родственник, архиепископ Прайс оставил ему в наследство 100 фунтов стерлингов. 27-летний Артур взял в аренду небольшую пивоварню с прилегающим участком земли, и уже через несколько лет пиво под маркой Guinness стало одним из самых популярных в Дублине. Дело продолжили его сыновья, а компания под названием Arthur Guinness Son & Co стала одной из самых процветающих в пивоваренном бизнесе.

Но своим появление Книга рекордов Гиннесса обязана не Артуру Гиннессу и даже не его сыновьям. Книга, содержащая интересные факты о самых выдающихся вещах, была впервые издана в 1955 году по заказу управляющего пивными заводами «Гиннесс» Хью Бивера. Энциклопедия сразу же стала бестселлером и приобрела необычайную популярность сначала в Великобритании, а затем и по всему миру.

Идея создания такой энциклопедии возникла после очередного спора Бивера с друзьями. Дело в том, что он был страстным поклонником охоты, и когда он не смог подстрелить дичь, то стал оправдываться тем, что золотистая ржанка (его ускользнувший трофей) является самой быстрой птичкой на свете, а стало быть, и попасть в нее практически невозможно. Друзья стали возражать, предлагая свои варианты самых скоростных пернатых, и тут Хью Биверу пришла в голову потрясающая идея. Он выдвинул идею о создании справочной книги, где была бы собрана самая интересная информация, которая могла бы разрешить многие споры.

Несмотря на то, что идея возникла в столь необычной обстановке, к созданию книги авторы подошли со всей серьезностью. Было разослано множество писем авторитетным ученым и интеллигентам, с просьбой уточнить те или иные факты. И когда энциклопедия была готова, ее было решено выпускать от имени компании «Гиннесс» и распространять в пабах, где посетители часто спорят и заключают пари на те или иные темы. Таким образом, книга должна была выступать в роли судьи в пабах, где любители пива не могли разрешить спор и нуждались в авторитетном источнике информации.

После невероятного успеха первого издания Книги рекордов Гиннесса, ее напечатали в США, а спустя какое-то время она завоевала весь мир. Постепенно появились издания, специализирующиеся только на какой-то узкой тематике, стал отмечаться Всемирный день Книги рекордов Гиннесса, а также была основана компания Guinness World Records, специалисты которой фиксируют новые рекорды и собирают информацию для книги. А к многочисленным поклонникам печатного издания прибавились тысячи, если не миллионы людей, желающих попасть на страницы очередной Книги рекордов, пусть даже и совершив что-то абсурдное, но зато самое-самое.

Вот так, из банального справочника Книга рекордов, созданная по инициативе пивоваренной компании, превратилась в одну из самых популярных книг человечества.

Understanding guidelines

Each and every record monitored at Guinness World Records has a set of specific guidelines. Our guidelines detail the rules that must be followed when attempting the record and the evidence that must be provided. The guidelines ensure that the record is standardisable and verifiable. In other words the guidelines tell you how it needs to be done and what you need to submit to us in order to prove it!

It is vital that your guidelines are read before your record attempt. We also have a Guide To Your Evidence document which supports your guidelines and will provide further guidance on the evidence needed to verify your attempt.

The guidelines you receive are unique to your record. All stated rules must be followed and all evidence must be submitted in order to become a Guinness World Records title holder.

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

Where can I find my guidelines?

You will find your guidelines on your application page, these will appear as a link below the current record title and above the current record. Select the link to view your guidelines.

What do each of the guideline sections mean?

Your guidelines consist of five different sections:

When you open up your guidelines you will see a legal notice. This is very important information that must be read and understood fully before you choose to proceed with your record attempt. See an extract below.

This document acts as a guide to the specific considerations and undertakings for your potential record attempt and is to be used in conjunction with the Guide to Your Evidence, which outlines the evidence we require to verify the success of your record attempt.These guidelines should be read and understood by all concerned with the record attempt prior to the attempt – this includes every participant, organiser and witness.

These guidelines are specific to your record attempt and must be followed. Should any part of these guidelines be contravened, your record attempt will be disqualified, without any right of appeal.

Additionally, these guidelines in no way provide any kind of safety advice and cannot be construed as providing any comfort that the record attempt is free from risk.

Guinness World Records accepts no responsibility for the safety of participants or bystanders in any record attempt. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that (a) all necessary safety precautions are in place and that all equipment used is suitable and thoroughly checked prior to the record attempt taking place and (b) you are in compliance with all applicable health and safety laws and regulations.

If you are attempting a record online using a non-GWR website, GWR is not responsible for the content of that platform or anything that may happen, including technical issues, during your attempt.

If you are organising a record attempt in association with an alcoholic brand you must seek explicit written permission in advance from GWR, otherwise your record may not be approved. Please send your requests to GWR using the Correspondence section in your online application.

The above guidance does not constitute legal advice and does not extinguish or dilute your contractual obligations to GWR.

If upon reviewing your evidence it becomes clear that any one of the above measures has not been adhered to, GWR reserves the right to disqualify the record attempt.

Finally, the provision of these guidelines in no way constitutes GWR’s consent for you to undertake a record attempt. Any record attempt will only be considered to be authorised by us where you have signed our standard agreement in relation to record attempts.

Here is an example of a Record definition (for the Most skips in one minute):

This section is the list of rules unique to your specific record, the points here will give you specific guidance on how to attempt the record. Please be aware that there are more rules found below in the category guidelines. The rules are listed by number but all are as important as each other and each and every one must be followed.

The category guidelines contain the rules and evidence requirements for all records of that format. For example the rules that must be followed for all attempts made in one minute, or our standard rules and evidence requirements for large food items.

So remember the Category Guidelines include ALL general points and ALL evidence requirements, so they are very different from the Record guidelines, which only include points that are specific to your record title only.

The category guidelines title will indicate to you the record format. You do not need to worry about this. For example:

You will then see the sentence ‘Please make sure you follow ALL these rules:’. The rules in this section are guideline point/rules that are applicable to all records within the same format. These points are listed using lower case letters (a. b. c. etc.). For example:

You will then see the evidence section, which is introduced by the following sentence: ‘Please make sure you supply the following evidence:’

These points are listed using bullet points and they list what evidence you must supply to enable us to verify your record attempt. Each piece of evidence is underlined and then repeated in the checklist.

An example of Category Guidelines- Evidence:

You will also see a reference to the Guide to Your Evidence document. This document is a crucial document and explains in detail our evidence. For example you will find information on who can act as an independent witness, what we count as independent etc. You will also find templates that can be used to create your evidence documents for example for a witness statement.

The final section of the guidelines is the evidence checklist. This provides you with a checklist of items that Guinness World Records requires. You’ll find the information on each item in the evidence section of the category guidelines and further guidance in the Guide To Your Evidence document. It is important that you have ALL items on your evidence checklist before you submit your evidence for review. Otherwise you risk your evidence review being delayed or rejected.

How to print your guidelines

You will find in the top right hand corner of the screen a button to convert your guidelines into a PDF document. This will create a printable format. Remember that the guidelines need to be shared and read by the participants and those involved in the verification process such as the Independent witnesses so this function will allow you to do this.

Guide To Your Evidence

View our Guide To Your Evidence where you will find further information on the Evidence we require to verify your record attempt. You will also find templates for evidence such as the cover letter, witness statements and log books.

What if I have questions about my guidelines?

If you have any questions about your guidelines you will be able to ask these direct to the Records Management Team through the correspondence function.

Trivia time: The idea for the Guinness Book of World Records came out of an argument Sir Hugh Beaver, managing director of the Guinness Brewery, had on a hunting trip in the early 1950s. He wasn’t able to find the answer to the fastest game bird in any reference book.

Later, that inspired his plan for Guinness to do a promotion around a book that would settle pub arguments. That first book, written by Norris and Ross McWhirter, was published August 27, 1955. And the 2016 edition — complete with an updated round of titles — will be available on September 10. In honor of the 60th anniversary, here are some of the wackiest record holders.

British man Garry Turner can stretch the skin of his stomach to 6.25 inches due to a rare medical condition called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. It’s a connective-tissue disorder where the collagen becomes defective, and includes the loosening of the skin and hyper-mobile joints. «I have always known that my skin was different — as a small child my uncles used to have fun showing their friends,» Turner told GWR. «Stretching doesn’t hurt at all. However, other aspects of the syndrome are very painful, [like my] joints.»

Рекорды Гиннесса: 15 самых неожиданных рекордов, которые точно тебя удивят

Книга рекордов Гиннесса – это ежегодно обновляемый справочник, который содержит информацию о последних рекордах и достижениях, связанных с людьми, животными или природными явлениями. В ней мы можем найти всё, что кажется нам необычным и выходящим за рамки привычного и стандартного.

Как появилась Книга рекордов Гиннесса

Впервые Книга рекордов Гиннесса была опубликована в 1955 году по заказу ирландской пивоваренной компании Guinness. Сама идея создания такого справочника принадлежала Хью Биверу, управляющему пивными заводами «Гиннесс».

На одной из вечеринок среди посетителей зашел спор о том, какая птица летает быстрее — золотая ржанка или шотландская куропатка. Бивер подумал, что подобный справочник поможет решать шуточные споры, возникающие между посетителями ирландских пабов. Так он начал собирать необычные факты о рекордах и издал первую книгу. На сегодняшний день в базе данных содержится более 40 000 текущих записей.

Сегодня сбором и анализом информации о рекордах занимается компания Guinness World Records, которая продолжает фиксировать новые достижения.

Есть ли критерии отбора рекордов

Ограничений для рекордов нет, компания Guinness World Records самостоятельно принимает решение о том, может ли событие или явление быть зарегистрировано в качестве феноменального. В этот справочник могут попасть самые разные факты — от информации о самом богатом человеке, который когда-либо существовал в истории, до самого долгого паломничества.

Среди рекордов может оказаться не только достижение или событие, но и редкие особенности внешности — от самого длинного языка до самых длинных ногтей или волос. Если поставленный рекорд еще не был зарегистрирован, он вполне может попасть в книгу рекордов.

Как попасть в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса

Для начала необходимо зарегистрироваться на официальном сайте Книги рекордов Гиннесса и оставить заявку с описанием достижения, о котором ты хочешь заявить. Для подачи заявки есть платный и бесплатный вариант: в первом случае для того, чтобы заявить о рекорде, необходимо оплатить сумму в 700 долларов, и тогда менеджеры рассмотрят заявку в течение 5 дней.

При бесплатном способе время ожидания может составить от 3-х месяцев — заявок, которые приходят ежедневно, слишком большое количество. Главное, чтобы за это время твой рекорд не повторил кто-то другой! Однако платная заявка — это не гарантия размещения рекорда. Комиссия в любом случае сообщит тебе решение, может ли твой рекорд быть зарегистрирован или он уже был зафиксирован.

На сайте ты можешь найти требования, которые необходимы для того, чтобы подтвердить рекорд, — это может быть видеозапись, а иногда необходимо, чтобы организаторы приехали в твой город, чтобы убедиться лично в том, что рекорд соответствует действительности. В любом случае доказательства должны быть зафиксированы документально.

Если ты решишь, что тебе необходимо попасть в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса, помни, что компания не платит деньги за установление рекорда, каким бы выдающимся он ни оказался. Но ты обязательно получишь сертификат участника и запись во всемирной Книге рекордов Гиннесса. А это того стоит, правда же?

15 самых неожиданных рекордов за всю историю

Есть много людей, которые создали историю и были отмечены в Книге рекордов Гиннесса. При этом есть и те, кто установил одни из самых причудливых и странных мировых рекордов, которые когда-либо существовали. Расскажем о них подробнее.

1. Самый длинный язык в мире

В 2021 году новым рекордсменом стал 20-летний студент из Индии Правин. Длина его языка составила 10,8 см, что на 7 мм больше, чем в предыдущем рекорде, установленном в 2012 году Ником Стоберлом, жителем Калифорнии, США по прозвищу «Лизунчик».

До этого рекорд принадлежал британцу Стивену Тейлору, чей язык был на 1 см меньше, чем у текущего рекордсмена.

2. Самая длинная клюшка для гольфа

В январе 2020 года Майкл Фурр и Майк Рауш в Техасе, США подтвердили рекорд, создав самую длинную используемую клюшку для гольфа. Ее длина составила 15,57 м.

3. Самое долгое удержание планки

В феврале 2020 года американец Джордж Худ установил новый рекорд по удержанию планки — он составил 8 часов 15 минут и 15 секунд! Раньше Джордж служил в морской пехоте, до этого он неоднократно получал межнународные награды, связанные с удержанием планки, и наконец-то дело дошло и до Книги рекордов Гиннесса.

Предыдущий рекорд по удержанию планки среди мужчин принадлежит Мао Вэйдуну из Китая. В 2016 году он продержался целых 8 часов и 1 минуту.

4. Самые длинные женские ноги

Маки Каррин из США в 2020 году в 17-летнем возрасте установила новый мировой рекорд, получив титул самой длинноногой девушки в мире, как среди женщин, так и подростков. Длина ее левой ноги составляет 135,267 см, а правой — 134,3 см. Общий ее рост составил 208 см, таким образом, ноги составили 60% от общей длины всего ее тела!

Девушка из США обогнала 32-летнюю русскую баскетболистку Екатерину Лисину, которая попала в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса на 3 года раньше, — длина ее ног составляет 133 см, что оказалось всего на пару сантиметров меньше нового рекорда. Рост предыдущей победительницы из Пензы составляет 205 см.

5. Самый большой авторский коктейль

29 мая 2019 года на фестивале Gastreet в Сочи команда из Москвы приготовила самый большой авторский коктейль в мире. Огромный бокал наполняли несколько часов — всего получилось 650 л авторского напитка.

В Книге рекордов Гиннесса также есть авторский коктейль, который приготовила в 2018 году команда репера Снуп Догга. Тогда на музыкальном фестивале в Напе, Калифорния, получилась огромная чашка объемом почти в 550 л. В ней по рецепту был джин, абрикосовый бренди и апельсиновый сок.

6. Самая высокая шляпа в мире

В 2018 году Одилон Озаре из США создал шляпу, длина которой составила 4,8 метров. Для подтверждения рекорда автору задумки необходимо было пройти 10 м в этой шляпе — и он смог это сделать.

7. Самый длинный язык у собаки

В 2017 году 8-летняя собака по кличке Моучи из Южной Дакоты попала в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса — у нее самый длинный язык в мире среди собак. Его длина составила 18,6 см — язык сербернара едва помещается в пасть!

Один из предыдущих рекордов принадлежал 9-летнему Пагги — пекинесу из Техаса, США. Длина его языка составила 11,43 см. Измерение проводилось в мае 2009 года, когда пекинесу было 9 лет.

8. Самый долгий поцелуй

Паре Эккачая и Лаксаны Тиранарат пришлось пройти долгий путь — их поцелуй длился больше 2-х суток, а точнее — 58 часов 35 минут и 58 секунд. Пара из Таиланда победила на мероприятии Ripley’s Believe it or Not 12-14 февраля 2013 года. Там им удалось выиграть денежный приз и два кольца с бриллиантами.

9. Наибольшее количество бургеров, съеденных за всю жизнь

10. Попугай, который научился открывать бутылки из-под газировки

Звучит необычно, но попугай из Калифорнии не только научился открывать бутылки с газировкой, но и делать это на скорость. В 2012 году попугай по имени Зак Ара установил новый мировой рекорд, открыв 35 бутылок с жестяной крышкой в течение одной минуты. Невероятно, не правда ли?

11. Самая большая коллекция резиновых уточек

Шарлотта Ли из США 10 апреля 2011 года продемонстрировала свою коллекцию, которая на момент установления рекорда состояла из 5631 резиновой уточки. Шарлота собирает их с 1996 года.

12. Самая большая коллекция садовых гномов и пикси

В самой большой коллекции гномов и пикси, принадлежащей Энн Аткин, — 2042 гнома и пикси. Рекорд поставлен в марте 2011 года.

13. Самая масштабная фотосессия девушек в бикини

3090 девушек и женщин в возрасте от 4 до 69 лет приняли участие в самой большой в мире фотосессии в бикини на пляже в Хулудао, провинции Ляонин, Китай, в августе 2011 года.

Похожий рекорд, но чуть менее масштабный, был установлен в сентябре 2007 года, когда более 1010 женщин приняли участие в фотосессии, организованной журналом Cosmopolitan и компанией Venus Breeze. Событие состоялось на пляже Бонди в Австралии.

14. Самые длинные в мире усы

И снова житель Индии, на этот раз из Джайпура, Рам Сингх в 2010 году стал человеком с самыми длинными в мире усами. Он отрастил их до невероятного размера в 4 метра 26 см!

Рекорд был установлен в Италии на съемках телешоу «Lo Show dei Record». Рам Сингх признался, что не стриг усы больше 37 лет.

15. Самое большое количество пирсинга на теле

Пока одни едят каждый день бигмаки, чтобы установить новый мировой рекорд, другие — прокалывают каждый день пирсинг. По крайней мере, такое ощущение возникает, когда взгляд падает на бразильянку Элейн Дэвидсон, установившую новый рекорд в 2006 году. Бывшая владелица ресторана на момент установления рекорда имела в общей сумме 4225 проколов.

СМИ сообщают, что девушка постоянно добавляет и заменяет украшения, в основном на лице. Кроме пирсинга Элейн любит татуировки, яркий макияж, а также ей нравится носить перья в волосах.

Как работает Книга рекордов Гиннесса: откуда берет деньги, как занести свой рекорд и почему все критикуют жюри

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

Книга рекордов Гиннесса появилась как проект пивоваренной компании Guinness. Она разрешила кучу споров двух посетителей ирландского паба, и с 1955 года выпускает книгу с мировыми рекордами в самых разных областях.

Заметная особенность Книги рекордов – странные и необычные рекорды. Вот характерные примеры:

🌐 Джейки Майли обладает самой большой коллекцией плюшевых медведей (8025 штук);

🌐 Кролик Бини – лучший кролик-баскетболист в мире: за минуту он семь раз забрасывает мяч в корзину;

🌐 Април Чой за минуту сбивает четыре блока в настольной игре Дженга;

🌐 Андрэ Ортольф без помощи рук за минуту съел 716 граммов желе;

🌐 Скай Броберг пролезла всем телом через теннисную ракетку;

🌐 Баю Денгчун бросал игральные карты в арбузы так, чтобы они застряли. За минуту получилось 17 раз;

🌐 Джулиан Чекли сделал самую достоверную копию костюма Бэтмена с 23 встроенными гаджетами, которые реально работают.

Изготовление самой длинной пиццы в мире (2 км)

Значит ли это, что попасть в Книгу может каждый, если даже достигнет абсурдного достижения? Кто решает, какой рекорд зафиксировать? Обладателям рекорда платят деньги? Что вообще не так с Книгой Гиннесса? Отвечаем на главные вопросы.

Что сделать, чтобы попасть в книгу рекордов Гиннесса? И через кого фиксируется рекорд?

Через официальный сайт Книги можно подать заявку. Нужно доказать, что вы побили действующий рекорд или сделали что-то такое новое, ради чего стоит добавить новый рекорд. Книга рекордов предупреждает: «Мы требуем, чтобы все наши рекорды были доказуемы, поддавались количественной оценке и могли быть побиты». Другие основные условия рекорда – он не должен угрожать жизни: как людей, так и животных.

Ок, мы подали заявку. И что дальше? Жюри Книги рекордов рассмотрит заявку в течение 4-6 недель, а затем даст ответ. Еще Книга предлагает услугу быстрого рассмотрения рекорда – Fast Track. За 450 фунтов (34 тысячи рублей) вашу заявку рассмотрят в течение трех дней.

Если рекорд зафиксируют, то его можно зафиксировать просто удаленно (и менее торжественно). Но также вы можете позвать судью Книги рекордов – если оплатите ему дорогу и проживание. Тогда он приедет, вручит вам сертификат об установлении рекорда – и о вас как минимум расскажет официальный сайт Книги.

Еще Книга рекордов фиксирует достижения через свое тв-шоу (транслируется в 18 странах), где часто устраиваются соревнования между претендентами.

Можно ли заработать на рекорде?

Нет, Книга рекордов против финансового стимулирования. Она не будет оплачивать и условия для рекорда. Если вы захотите съесть рекордное количество бургеров за минуту, то деньги на них или спонсора находите вы.

Мужчина получил подтверждение, что у него самые волосатые уши в мире

За что критикуют Книгу рекордов? Бессмысленные рекорды, слабая компетенция жюри, много коммерции

Журналист Брайден Сувари пишет, что в последние годы Книга рекордов теряет свой авторитет – у нее мало качественных экспертов, которые бы разбирались в конкретных областях. Вместо этого Книга обращает внимание на пустяковые рекорды – их может быть миллионы, и поэтому их ценность низкая (например, рекорд в духе удерживания стакана на подбородке).

Сувари обвиняет Книгу рекордов в излишней коммерциализации – чтобы пригласить судью, претенденту на рекорд нужно потратить минимум 800 долларов. Иногда – намного больше. Например, Книга рекордов попросила 15 тысяч фунтов у европейской ассоциации спидраннеров за то, чтобы зафиксировать самое быстрое прохождение игры «Марио». Но на самом мероприятии уже были судьи, которые лучше разбираются в спидранах.

Главная претензия Сувари – Книга рекордов стала просто брендом, который остается авторитетом по привычке людей. Настоящий крутой рекорд Книга может и не зафиксировать, если к ней не обратиться и не организовать за деньги вручение сертификата.

Часто Книгу рекордов обвиняют в небрежном отношении рекордов. Например, она не засчитала рекорд женщине, которая «быстрее всех пробежала марафон в костюме медсестры» – потому что Книга посчитала, что ее костюм не соответствует медицинскому. Но под давлением критики Книга признала рекорд.

Guinness World Records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Guinness World Records, known from its inception in 1955 until 1999 as The Guinness Book of Records and in previous United States editions as The Guinness Book of World Records, is a reference book published annually, listing world records both of human achievements and the extremes of the natural world. The brainchild of Sir Hugh Beaver, the book was co-founded by twin brothers Norris and Ross McWhirter in Fleet Street, London, in August 1955.

The first edition topped the best-seller list in the United Kingdom by Christmas 1955. [3] The following year the book was launched internationally, and as of the 2022 edition, it is now in its 67th year of publication, published in 100 countries and 23 languages, and maintains over 53,000 records in its database.

The international franchise has extended beyond print to include television series and museums. The popularity of the franchise has resulted in Guinness World Records becoming the primary international authority on the cataloguing and verification of a huge number of world records. [4] [5] The organisation employs record adjudicators to verify the authenticity of the setting and breaking of records.

Thickest ice

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

The thickest ice in the world forms part of the Antarctic Ice Sheet where it sits over a region known as the Astrolabe Subglacial Basin to the south of the Adélie Coast. Here, the ice sheet has been measured to be 4,897 metres (16,066 feet) thick. The basin is named after Astrolabe, the flagship of the French Antarctic Expedition (1837–40).

Ice thickness is often measured using ice-penetrating radar, and many areas of Antarctica remain unsurveyed, which means that thicker ice could exist but has yet to be measured.

Previously, the greatest recorded thickness of ice was 4,780 metres (15,682 feet), as measured by radio echo soundings from a US Antarctic research aircraft at 69°56’17 in Wilkes Land, eastern Antarctica.

The research that confirmed this as the thickest ice recorded to date was published in the journal The Cryosphere on 28 February 2013.

Strangest diet

During his lifetime, Michel Lotito (France) (b. 15 June 1950) of Grenoble, France, known as Monsieur Mangetout, ate metal and glass throughout his lifetime, beginning in 1959. Gastroenterologists X-rayed his stomach and described his ability to consume 900 g (2 lb) of metal per day as unique.

His diet since 1966 included 18 bicycles, 15 supermarket trolleys, seven TV sets, six chandeliers, two beds, a pair of skis, a low-calorie Cessna light aircraft and a computer. He is said to have provided the only example in history of a coffin (handles and all) ending up inside a man.

He first became aware of his ability when a glass from which he was drinking, broke and he began chewing the fragments. By October 1997, he had eaten nearly 9 tons of metal. He said that bananas and hard-boiled eggs made him sick.

Mr Lotito died of natural causes on June 25, 2007.

Each edition contains a selection of the records from the Guinness database, as well as select new records; the criteria for inclusion having changed over the years.

The ousting of Norris McWhirter from his consulting role in 1995 and the subsequent decision by Diageo Plc to sell the Guinness World Records brand have shifted it from a text-oriented to an illustrated reference book («style over substance»). The majority of world records are no longer listed in the book or on the website, and can only be determined by a written application to Guinness to ‘break’ the record. For those unable to wait the 4–6 weeks for a reply, Guinness will process a ‘fast-track’ application for £300 (US$450)(EU300).

The Guinness Book of Records is the world’s most sold copyrighted book, earning it an entry within its own pages. A number of spin-off books and television series have also been produced.

Guinness World Records bestowed the record of «Person with the most records» on Ashrita Furman of Queens, NY in April 2009. At that time, he held 100 records. [12]

In 2005, Guinness designated 9 November as International Guinness World Records Day to encourage breaking of world records. [13] In 2006, an estimated 100,000 people participated in over 10 countries. Guinness reported 2,244 new records in 12 months, which was a 173% increase over the previous year. [13] In February 2008, NBC aired The Top 100 Guinness World Records of All Time and Guinness World Records made the complete list available on their website. [14]

Defining records [ ]

Sultan Kösen (Turkey) is the tallest living person since 17 September 2009, as verified by Guinness World Records.

For many records, Guinness World Records is the effective authority on the exact requirements for them and with whom records reside, the company providing adjudicators to events to determine the veracity of record attempts. The list of records which the Guinness World Records covers is not fixed; records may be added and also removed for various reasons. The public are invited to submit applications for records, which can be either the bettering of existing records or substantial achievements which could constitute a new record. [2] The company also provides corporate services for companies to «harness the power of record-breaking to deliver tangible success for their businesses.» [16]

Ethical and safety issues [ ]

Steven Petrosino drinking 1 litre of beer in 1.3 seconds in June 1977. [17] [18] Petrosino set record times for 250 ml, 500 ml and 1.5 litres as well, but Guinness accepted only the record for one litre. They later dropped all beer and alcohol records from their compendium in 1991, and reinstated the records in 2008.

Guinness World Records states several types of records it will not accept for ethical reasons, such as those related to the killing or harming of animals. [19]

There have been instances of closed records being reopened. For example, the sword swallowing record was listed as closed in the 1990 Guinness Book of World Records, but the Guinness World Records Primetime TV show, which started in 1998, accepted three sword swallowing challenges (and so did the 2007 edition of the Guinness World Records onwards). Similarly, the speed beer drinking records which were dropped from the book in 1991, reappeared 17 years later in the 2008 edition, but were moved from the «Human Achievements» section of the older book [22] to the «Modern Society» section of the newer edition. [23]

Chain letters are also not allowed: «Guinness World Records does not accept any records relating to chain letters, sent by post or e-mail. If you receive a letter or an e-mail, which may promise to publish the names of all those who send it on, please destroy it, it is a hoax. No matter if it says that Guinness World Records and the postal service are involved, they are not.» [2]

Difficulty in defining records [ ]

For some potential categories, Guinness World Records has declined to list some records that are too difficult or impossible to determine. For example, its website states: «We do not accept any claims for beauty as it is not objectively measurable.» [19]

On 10 December 2010, Guinness World Records stopped its new «dreadlock» category after investigation of its first and only female title holder, Asha Mandela, determining it was impossible to judge this record accurately. [24]

Verifying existing records [ ]

Guinness World Records website publishes selected records and is not supposed to be used for the record verification purposes, as it explains: «There are more than 40,000 current records in our database and we try our best to feature as many as possible online. We currently include over 15,000 records online which we update every week, so make sure to check the site regularly!» The book printed annually contains only 4,000 records. The only way to verify a record is to contact Guinness, and the average response time is two weeks. [25]

Museums [ ]

Guinness Museum in Hollywood

Television series [ ]

Guinness World Records has commissioned various television series documenting world record breaking attempts, including:

With the popularity of reality television, Guinness World Records began to market itself as the originator of the television genre, with slogans such as we wrote the book on Reality TV.

Gamer’s edition [ ]

In 2008, Guinness World Records released its gamer’s edition, a branch that keeps records for popular video game high scores, code, and feats in association with Twin Galaxies. The Gamer’s Edition contains 258 pages, over 1236 video game related world records and four interviews including one with Twin Galaxies founder Walter Day. The most recent edition is the Guinness World Records Gamer’s Edition, 2018, which was released August 29, 2017.

British pop music volume [ ]

The Guinness Book of British Hit Singles & Albums was published from 2003 to 2006, based on two earlier, separate HiT publications, British Hit Singles and British Hit Albums, which began in 1977. It was effectively replaced (in singles part) by the Virgin Book of British Hit Singles from 2007 onward. [32]

Other media [ ]

Video games [ ]

In 2012, Warner Bros. announced the development of a live-action film version of Guinness World Records with Daniel Chun as scriptwriter. The film version will apparently use the heroic achievements of record holders as the basis for a narrative that should have global appeal. [33]

Worst pandemic

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

The most deadly pandemic in human history was the Black Death, a pneumonic plague pandemic that spread across Europe, Asia and North Africa between 1346 and 1353. The death toll of this disease is impossible to know exactly, but credible estimates range from 25 million to 200 million (with most estimates falling in the 50–100 million range). For context, at the time the total global population was likely not much more than 400 million.

The bacterium that causes the plague, Yersinia pestis, is named after the French scientist that discovered it in 1894, Alexandre Yersin. This bacterium is transmitted by fleas that live on rodents. When rodents die of plague, the fleas jump to a new host and transmits the plague to them.

The most common form of plague was Bubonic plague, which caused painful buboes, or swellings, on the victims. These turned black, leading to the name ‘Black Death’. The pneumonic plague is much more infectious, and affects victims’ lungs.

The arrival of a new and dangerous strain of plague in the 16th century caused a second wave of this pandemic, and the most recent plague pandemic spread across Asia in the late 19th century.

She was born on 21 February 1875, around 14 years before the Eiffel Tower was constructed (she saw it being built), and some 15 years before the advent of movies. The year after her birth, Tolstoy published Anna Karenina and Alexander Graham Bell patented the telephone. Jeanne Louise Calment from France lived a quiet life. But an unprecedentedly long one.

Her marriage to a wealthy distant cousin, Fernand Nicolas Calment, in 1896 meant that Jeanne didn’t have to work for a living. That may have played a part in her extraordinary longevity: she was free to swim, play tennis, cycle (she was still cycling until the age of 100) and roller skate, all of which promoted excellent good health. Inevitably, in due course, those around her passed away – including her husband (poisoned by some spoiled cherries, aged 73), her daughter Yvonne (who died from pneumonia in 1934) and even her grandson, Frédéric (who died in a car accident in 1963). But not Jeanne.

As she was without heirs, in 1965 a lawyer named André-François Raffray set up a “reverse mortgage” with Jeanne. According to this arrangement, he would pay her 2,500 francs every month until she died, whereupon he would inherit her apartment. It must have seemed like a good deal for Monseiur Raffray (then aged 47) – after all, Jeanne was 90 at the time. Incredibly, however, Jeanne outlived him. He died thirty years later and his family continued the payments. By the time of her death, they had paid Jeanne more than double the value of her apartment.

Jeanne remained in fine health for the majority of her life – she even took up fencing at the tender age of 85. Her diet was good too, rich in olive oil (which she also rubbed into her skin), and she restricted herself to a modest glass of wine every now and then. But she also had a sweet tooth, with a particular fondness for chocolate: she ate almost 1 kg (2 lb 3 oz) of it each week. And she loved her cigarettes: Jeanne had smoked from the age of 21 and only quit when she was 117. She was able to walk on her own until she was one month before her 115th birthday, when she fell and fractured her femur; thereafter she needed a wheelchair to get around.

She lived on her own until the age of 110, when she had to move into a nursing home. Two years later, on 11 January 1988, she became the oldest living person; and two years after that, now aged 114, she appeared in a film about Van Gogh, Vincent et moi (1990), as herself, thereby becoming the Oldest film actress ever. Working as a girl in her father’s shop in Arles, France, she had sold painting canvasses to Van Gogh. “He was ugly as sin, had a vile temper and smelled of booze,” she later recalled:

She even went on to become a recording artist: aged 120, her voice featured on a four-track CD, Time’s Mistress:

Her tranquil state of mind probably contributed to Jeanne’s long, long life (“That’s why they call me Calment,” she quipped at her 121st birthday in 1996), and may have helped her stave off senility – she remained clear thinking right up to the day she passed away in 1997, aged 122 years 164 days.

Jeanne was also famous for her wit, and felt that her sense of humour also played its part in her remarkable longevity. At her 120th birthday, journalists asked her what kind of future she expected. “A very short one,” she replied.

In the video below we look back at the oldest people on record and explore the science behind old age. What makes some people live longer than others? And is it likely that anyone will beat the current record from Jeanne Louise Calment of 122 years and 164 days? Experts give us their take on the future of this record, and what makes humans live to a ripe old age.

Почему фамилия создателя «Книги рекордов Гиннеса» не Гиннес

Мерилом успеха для многих людей является попадание в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса. Можно стать самым-самым и получить упоминание в одной из популярнейших книг мира. Порой из-за этого появляются совсем уж нелепые рекорды. Да и преувеличить свои возможности соблазн тоже есть. Но как вообще возникла эта книга, и кому в голову пришла идея собрать вместе все рекорды? Как ни странно, придумал это вовсе не Гиннесс, как логично можно было бы предположить. В этом материале мы расскажем, кто именно, и как Книга рекордов Гиннесса обрела свой нынешний вид и популярность.

Guinness world records. Смотреть фото Guinness world records. Смотреть картинку Guinness world records. Картинка про Guinness world records. Фото Guinness world records

Кто придумал «Книгу рекордов Гиннеса»?

На самом деле у этой книги несколько названий: «Всемирная книга рекордов», «Книга мировых рекордов Гиннесса», «Книга рекордов Гиннесса», «Гиннесс. Мировые рекорды». Этот справочник является ежегодным и в него входят рекордные достижения не только людей, но и животных, природы, культуры и СМИ. Автором идеи стал Хью Бивер. На тот момент он являлся исполнительным директором пивоваренной компании Гиннесс. В ноябре 1951 года раздосадованный неудачей на охоте, Бивер заявил, что ускользнувшая от него золотистая ржанка вообще-то является самой быстрой пернатой дичью в Европе. Разгорелся спор, который разрешить было невозможно. Вечером Бивер задумался, что и посетители пабов регулярно заключают пари по разным вопросам, и тоже часто никто не может подтвердить правоту одной из сторон.

Ким Гудман – американская женщина, которая может высунуть глаза из глазниц на 12 миллиметров. Она держит мировой рекорд по дальнему выпячиванию глазного яблока.

Из забавного наблюдения родилась бизнес-идея. Бивер подумал, что неплохо было бы собрать рекорды в одну книгу, которая авторитетно смогла бы разрешать подобные споры. А через три года Бивер заключил новое пари, на этот раз о преимуществе в скорости шотландской куропатки над золотистой ржанкой. Тут уж окончательно стало ясно, что принципиальным охотникам никуда без книги-помощника. За дело взялся подчиненный Бивера, Кристофер Чатвэй. Он предложил своим друзьям по университету, братьям МакУайртерам заняться наполнением книги. Она была презентована 12 сентября 1954 года перед советом директоров компании «Гиннесс», получив одобрение и финансирование.

Блосом – самая высокая корова в мире. Высота в холке составляет 1 м 94 см.

Издатели направили множество писем ученым, коллекционерам, исследователям и статистикам. 27 августа 1955 года свет увидела первая Книга рекордов. Слово «Гиннесс» появилось рядом с названием в честь компании — главного спонсора выпуска. Состоял он из 198 страниц, было напечатано почти 50 тысяч копий. Бурный успех «Книги рекордов Гиннесса» стал для ее авторов неожиданностью. Было решено издавать книгу каждый год, осенью. Со временем появились как национальные издания, так и специализированные, посвященные конкретной теме. Не обошлось и без множества куда менее успешных клонов-последователей.

Оливер Струмпфел – сумел перенести на 40 метров 25 кружек пива.

Изначально книга представляла собой строгий справочник, собрание вполне научных фактов, подтвержденных экспертами. Но сегодня куда более актуальными для читателей стали человеческие достижения в различных областях. Книга не могла не отреагировать на дух времени. Теперь в ней можно найти данные о самом дальнем футбольном голе, о максимальной пройденной спиной вперед дистанции, о рекорде толкания апельсина носом, длине броска яйца, продолжительности сеанса видеоигры, съеденных хот-догов и скорости выпивания пива. Есть в книге и информация о возрастных достижениях: «самый молодой» или «самый старый». Конечно же, все больше появляется и абсурдных рекордов.

Ли Лонглонг – дальше всех поднялся по лестнице на голове.

Как попасть в «Книгу рекордов Гиннеса»?

Количество желающих получить упоминание в знаменитой книге вынудило ее издателей ответственно подойти к фиксации рекордов. Во многих случаях этим занимается специальная комиссия, она не только фиксирует достижение, но и контролирует соблюдение всех правил и критериев его установления.

Джоел Мигглер – самое большое количество тоннелей на лице (11).

Чтобы попасть в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса с новым рекордом или в попытке побить уже существующий надо подать бесплатную заявку на официальном сайте Guinnessworldrecords.com. Там же можно и проверить, не совпадает ли ваш рекорд с уже существующим. Заявку будут рассматривать до 12 недель, но ускорить процесс можно за доплату в размере 800 долларов. В случае интереса издателей к постановке рекорда будет заключен договор с соискателем. Компания сама устанавливает критерии, при которых рекорд будет засчитываться. Конечно же, главным фактором является присутствие представителя комиссии в момент установки достижения. В случае фиксации рекорда соискатель получает сертификат об этом, а в новом выпуске Книги рекордов Гиннесса появляется запись о рекорде.

Такеру Кобаяши – съел больше всех хот-догов в течение 3-х минут.

Желающих попасть на страницы авторитетного издания очень много – каждый год ставятся тысячи рекордов, при этом сотни тысяч людей участвуют в погоне за славой. Рекорд по числу рекордов принадлежит Ашрите Фурману – их он удерживает более двух сотен, в том числе: количество приседаний за час на Эйфелевой башне, время забега на милю с бутылкой молока на голове, создание самого длинного карандаша.

Книга рекордов Гиннесса давно переросла рамки бумажного издания. Это культурный феномен, о котором снимают сериалы, выпускают видеоигры, ей посвящают музеи. Книгу критикуют, в ней сомневаются, считают неэтичной… Но это только подогревает интерес к самому большому и интересному собранию рекордов в мире.

Франциско Доминго Жоакима – обладатель самого большого рта в мире (16,99 см).
