Guinness World Records: Record of the Day

Our final episode sees the GWR team complete a year of record-breaking, with topics ranging from legless rowers and amazing flights by human cannonballs and tornado victims, to a giant structure made from toast and the farthest distance a thing has ever been thrown on Earth.

The record-breaking randomness continues with the challenges of growing a 14-ft-wide moustache, fighting with paper (but not rocks or scissors), richest man Jeff Bezos, female filmmakers at the Oscars, a big beaver collection, insuring your body parts and surfing with dogs!

Pirates, dino poop, ancient elephants, mile-high concerts, holding your breath, Venusian spaceships and the remotest galaxies! It can only mean one thing: GWR Record of the Day!

The toughest stuff in nature, the amazing Josephine Baker and her elderly crocodile, the speediest hearse, the most powerful and useless rocket that failed to put a Russian on the Moon, mass pole-dancing, the most boy-girl-boy-girl births and the most wins of the Best Actor Academy Award - another joyously mixed bag from the team at Guinness World Records.

This week's chat features the incredible OK GO pop video filmed on a vomit comet, the actual oldest vomit on Earth, alphabetizing your soup, a multitude of Valentine's Day treats, the Chelyabinsk meteor strike, a very pregnant goat and the man who ate 2.5 gallons of chilli con carne in 5 minutes.

Topics this week include a bed-sized onion bhaji, the woman with fingernails longer than her forearms, the Mafia, the highest-ever plane crash, the tallest living human and the animal fanatic who's visited over 1,200 zoos. Plus, we wish a happy birthday to the awesome astronaut Peggy Whitson!

On the menu this week: Killer honey bees, the ultimate life-long pub crawl, turning a sheep into a suit, knuckling down with the most celebrated female record-breaker, competitive hole-digging and we taco-bout a superlative Mexican cookery TV show.

Could you spend 101 days rowing an ocean with your mum? What happens when you're smacked in the face by junk from space? What's the heaviest thing ever weighed? Should you be offended if your party invite takes 89 years to be delivered? What's the speed limit on Mars? Remember group hugs!? Who is this Carl Lewis guy anyway?!

With a week to go until Biden and Harris take office, the team look back at other presidential records, probe William Shatner's $25,000 kidney stone, watch a pig performing tricks, meet the bride and groom with the biggest age gap, experience the sharpest fluctuation in temperature, learn nuclear physics from a 12-year-old who built his own nuclear fusion device and marvel at the amazing Sully Sullenberger and his Miracle in the Hudson.

Happy New Year! The book team welcomes 2021 with open arms and tales of high-society Londoners skating on pig fat, the most ginormous giraffes, the perils of travelling on the underground, living in the same house for 100 years, cheating death by having yourself frozen, and the many challenges of pooping in space.
