Guiness Book of Records, the silenced achievers

Glenn Epic · 12-05-2007, 06:27 PM

So, as you probably know, the Guiness book of records had its questionable content removed some time in the 70's. Let's see if we can find them, cut them and paste them right into this thread.

Here's the first: Alcohol intake

Now, this one isn't from the Guiness Book of records but it still made me hot in the loins. This guy drank 119, 12 ounce beers in six hours. That's one beer every 3 minutes!

I heard that even after showering in bleach you could still smell this booze hound trotting toward his favorite beverage. Well, not anymore... he died from heart failure. Can you believe it?

So, dig deep gents!

That looks like Andre the Giant. I think he could actually take a larger intake than most of us, but I've never heard of him doing so. He had medical problems for much of his life.

For those that don't recognize him, this is Fezzik from the film The Princess Bride.

Rodents Of Unusual Size? I don't think they exist.

I want to challenge this guy for his record. I don't consume beer as it's a peasant drink, but I reckon I could rival him in the spirit equivalent, lol.
