"Fun to look through. The records really run the gamut, from cool to creepy. Lots of interesting facts too. Did you know that the highest man made temperature every reached was 365 billion degrees? I don't know how you would even measure that!
Also I thought it was funny that the only two I found that took place in Washington was for Bill Gate's huge house, and also the world's largest flea was found in a Beaver's den in Puyallup! Nice ballance there :D
As for setting my own world record. The current number of bananas peeled and eaten in one minute is only 2. I think I could definitely eat 3 in a minute. I think I could also drink a can of soda quickly too, although that record wasn't in the book...although, I thought there was a cash prize, and there isn't, so...it's now lower on my 'life to-do' list.
Ooh. I'm also good at tossing something up into the air and catching it. Maybe I could set the record for most times in a row without dropping...or from one hand to the other. I'm good at that too."
