Everyone's heard of Usain Bolt, but how many people know about
Dineka Maguire? Like Bolt, the Irish woman is a world record holder
but in the rather lesser known sport of bog snorkelling. She is
just one of the hundreds of unsung heroes featured in this book
chronicling the people who go to bizarre lengths to break world
records in the weirdest categories; people who devote hours of
intense training to spitting dung, eating cockroaches, sniffing
feet or tossing tuna in the hope of one day being recognised as the
best in the world. This astonishing compendium of the weirdest,
wackiest and most disgusting world records will amuse and astound
in equal measure. Entries include: Longest ear hair Fastest
marathon while wearing a deep-sea diving suit Fastest bog
snorkeller Farthest distance skateboarding by a goat Most bees on
body Most milk crates balanced on head Fastest 5-km run while
dressed as a penguin and juggling Heaviest airplane pulled with
teeth Fastest shopping trolley Longest backwards motorcycle ride
Most stairs climbed by bicycle Fastest 30 metres on a scooter by a
dog First water-skiing squirrel
