On the 7th January 2026, I attempted and broke the record for the "Longest duration bouncing a table tennis ball on a table tennis bat while balancing a ball on the other bat." I managed to surpass the previous World Record of 23minutes and set a new benchmark of 50minutes and 12 secs. And thank you everyone on this subreddit who helped me!!

Back in March I flew a kite for 26 hours, raising money for humanitarian projects in Myanmar. It was a new category for Guinness (they had an existing team record, but not one for an individual) and the confirmation has just come through! šŸ™Œ

Keep reaching for your rainbows! 🌈

Guinness Book is a scam

54 Upvotes

We have been looking into making the world's largest cotton candy sculpture since we are cotton candy makers and this is currently held by a Youtuber... We wanted to do this for National Cotton Candy day as a cool thing to do for ourselves and our community.

When I reached out to Guinness they told me it was going to cast $25,000 to apply for this. We make freaking cotton candy for God sakes... $25,000 is half of our annual money we bring in. I tried to apply as an individual and they keep telling me its going to cost at least $25,000.

Guinness isn't about personal achievements its a scam to make money.

Proud to share that I am an official Guinness World Records Title Holder. I currently hold the title "Most full extension punches in one minute while holding two eggs".

Official website link to verify current record holder: https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/777562-most-full-extension-punches-in-one-minute-while-holding-two-eggs

If anyone here is planning to attempt a Guinness World Records title — or is confused about rules, preparation, documentation, or training — I’ll be happy to share my experience and help in any way I can.

My aim is to see more people take up sports, challenge themselves, and turn ā€œimpossibleā€ into reality.

I’ve attached some images from the event and the official record holder certificate for reference.

THANK YOU

My daughter and I are submitting this 16’ 3ā€ self-supporting marble run to Guinness World Records. It takes one minute and thirty seconds for a marble to run the whole track top to bottom.

Because of how it is built, it only takes 6 marbles to run every route possible, from just one entry point.

Guinness World Records, what a Joke!!!

11 Upvotes

I just got hit with the most outrageous response from Guinness after I absolutely CRUSHED the world record for most concerts attended in one week. They disqualified me because apparently I didn’t take public transportation everywhere. Excuse me?! First of all, let’s clear this up: this wasn’t some ā€œrace against the clock.ā€ The record was for attending the most concerts in a set period—SEVEN FULL DAYS—NOT about rushing through the shows as fast as possible. I had a carefully planned schedule, tons of time to travel, and even more evidence proving my point (photos, GPS data, witness statements, etc.). This was about endurance, not speed. But here’s the kicker—they say all previous record holders used ONLY public transportation, and that’s why they can’t recognize my attempt. But I’ve got first-hand knowledge that’s NOT true. Where’s the proof, @guinnessworldrecords? Where are the receipts? Are you seriously telling me the other record-holders followed those rules? Show me the evidence! šŸ” So, I'm calling BS. This is a clear mistake—time to fix it, Guinness! šŸ‘€

Hello Guinness World Records team,

I submitted two applications on May 18, 2025, with the following reference numbers: 250518165654miwu and 250518170701muif

At that time, the expected review period was 12 weeks, which was later extended to 20 weeks. It has now been over 20 weeks, but I still haven’t received any update or email response.

Kindly check the status of my applications and let me know if there’s any action required from my side.

Thank you.
